Chapter 76: Chapter 75

75 – Correlation between the Demon King and the Hero – 2

“You said he was the Demon King, right?”

“That’s right.”

“You are also a possessor like us.”

“That too is true.”

“But why are you speaking like that? It’s in front of us. Talk comfortably, right? Or are you just coming up with a concept? “You can’t give up your role as the Demon King even if you die?”

It was an openly quarrelsome tone. Elisier, noticing her intentions, frowned at her. Since there was no good in fighting between the same possessors as soon as they saw each other, I tried to stop them by telling them to follow Priscilla’s example.

“… ….”

But when I saw Priscilla clinging to my side and being wary of Elisier, I quietly quit. She didn’t accept it outright, but it seemed like she didn’t have any good feelings either.

Well, in some ways, Priscilla was in a position to be much more hostile than Rosaria.

Rosaria’s number of deaths from the Demon Lord is small, but Priscilla’s number is in the three digits at least. The intensity of the pain she must have felt at the time of her death would not be surpassed by Rosaria.

Even the reason he died was because of a curse placed by the devil, so he couldn’t put on a good face.

“Stop it. I didn’t bring you here to make you fight. “What are we going to do if we growl when our combined efforts are not enough?”

I fired sharply. Rosaria flinched with a surprised look on her face, as if she had been completely overcome by her momentum.

“Sorry. I got so emotional because I remembered being killed by you before. If you think about it, you and I were just acting according to the original novel. “I won’t do that again.”

In the end, he gave me an apology in a low voice. Judging by the expression on his face, it was not a forced apology. Mari, who had been feverish, seemed to have calmed down a little.

“It is done. “I also died after being cooked alive by a hero, so wouldn’t I be a teacher?”

“But why do you really talk like that? Oh, I’m not asking this to be sarcastic, I’m just asking out of genuine curiosity. “Can’t we speak comfortably since it’s in front of us?”

“… ….”

The atmosphere, which was about to become awkward again, was finally relieved when I mentioned the plan I had made with Elisier. However, rather than truly being resolved, it seemed closer to being buried for now.

Still, I felt like there was something going on just by not hitting and fighting right now. I decided to be satisfied with this level.

You can’t be full after the first drink. It’s not like we won’t have opportunities like this in the future, and we can just gradually improve it later.

“…… “That’s how it happened.”

I told Rosaria and Priscilla everything about the plan I had been working on with Elisier. I wanted these three people to be as honest as possible.

“Mummy. “Did you fight the devil?”

Priscilla, who was thinking deeply about something, suddenly asked a question. She nodded.

“That’s right. Because that was the plan.”

“Are you hurt?”

“… ….”

I was reflexively trying to say that I wasn’t seriously hurt, but I was embarrassed and stopped talking when I saw Priscilla bursting into tears during the brief pause.

“Are you hurt?”

“Oh, no. “It didn’t hurt that badly.”

“You weren’t seriously hurt? Please tell me properly. Look straight into my eyes. “How hurt are you?”

Rosaria gave a sharp look on behalf of Priscilla, who was starting to shed her thick tears. She looked at Elisier.

Elisier’s eyes were shining.

“He was injured so badly that he cried out against suicide right before carrying out his leisure plan.”

“I knew that, really! “I can’t survive!”

While I was bewildered by the sudden revenge, Rosaria got up from her seat, saying she knew it would happen.

“Hey! What did I say? I told you that I would trust you and follow whatever plan you made, but please don’t get hurt! I also asked you to put your body first! “You said you knew it so many times, but then you made a plan to hurt the devil so badly that he would shout against it?!”

“No, I really wasn’t seriously hurt-“

“Since when did having your right arm cut off and half of your upper body ripped off fall into the category of not being seriously injured?”

“Hey, Elisier, you-“

No matter how much it was planned, Elisier seemed to really not like the fact that he had to hurt me so badly, and he spilled out the information as if he had taken the opportunity to get revenge.

Of course, Rosaria’s face became grim in proportion, and Priscilla’s tears also became thicker in proportion.

“I knew it! Why do you keep making plans that only hurt you? You are good! You’re good at fighting too! Can’t we just sweep it all away and stay safe?!”

“Don’t die, Mira…… Please…… If you die, I will die too…….”

On one side, Rosalia was pushing me as if she was going to die of frustration, and on the other side, Priscilla was crying and clinging to me.

Elisier was looking at her with the gaze of her self-sufficiency.

For me, I thought that no matter how much I got hurt, it would be okay as long as I didn’t die in the end, but I didn’t care enough to say something like that, so I just kept my mouth shut and listened.

The overheated atmosphere died down after a while. I was barely able to be released after promising Rosaria dozens of times that if we were going to make such a plan in the future, we would discuss it together first.

Priscilla settled on her thighs and curled up into her arms, whimpering continuously. She opened her mouth while he stroked her head.

“…… Anyway, the reason we gathered like this is because I think we need to discuss the future. “Comparing it to the development of the original novel has long since become meaningless.”

From Noble mtl dot com

We have come too far to refer to the development of the original work. I don’t know if it’s just a fragmentary incident, but there will come a time when even that fragmentary incident will be completely distorted.

“The most important thing is that the Demon King is no longer the final boss. “

“Then who is the final boss?”

“I don’t know. There’s no clue. It’s questionable whether he even has a role as a final boss in the first place, but if I had to guess, I think it might have something to do with that strange black energy. “It’s just my guess, so don’t trust it too blindly.”

“You mean it felt closer to demonic power than the power used by the demon lord?”

“That’s right. Do you know anything? “First of all, Elisier and I weren’t there.”

Rosaria and Priscilla looked worried, but then shook their heads almost simultaneously. I guess so too.

“That’s why I’m saying this, but there’s something I want to tell you about black energy. “It is also related to the reason why the hero was so forcefully awakened.”

“What is it?”

I took a deep breath for a moment. And he held Priscilla’s hand tightly. Priscilla looked surprised for a moment, but then she folded my hand with both her hands and gave strength.

She felt her warmth and summoned her light spear in her left hand.

“Uh…… ?”

When light of a similar color to that of the holy sword suddenly leaked from my hand, Rosaria and Elisier looked surprised. Priscilla, who was holding my hand, was no exception.

“…… Hey, Mira. “What is that?”

“Well, it’s just a window. I have a name, but I don’t really feel like calling it. Still, if I had to call him by name…… Seongchang, that would be about the same.”

“…… Holy spear?”

Rosaria asked back, as if she had remembered something. I also nodded at her.

“That’s right. Elisier. “This is the source of the power you said was similar to the Holy Sword.”

“A power similar to that of a holy sword?!”

Instead of Elisier, Rosaria opened her mouth and asked back. Elysière had such a look on her face that she had forgotten how to say how surprised she was.

“I don’t know how it happened, but Elisier said so. It is said that a power similar to that of a holy sword can be felt in the pit it created. Of course, I didn’t know the existence of this window at the time.”

“Uh…… Uh…… ?”

“This is the reason the hero has been awakened now. As soon as that black energy touched here, it disappeared without a trace. “If the power of the two weapons is so similar, wouldn’t the Holy Sword be able to purify it?”

I paused slightly after saying that. If I was prepared to reveal a secret, I had been doing it since I came here.

But that doesn’t mean it’s completely done.

“And…… It’s also because I don’t want to bring this up any time soon. “This is a weapon that symbolizes my failure.”

Priscilla and Rosaria’s expressions hardened at the word failure. It seemed like he realized that it was time to talk about the past. Elisier looked confused, perhaps because he didn’t know about my past.

She smiled bitterly and began to explain.

The fact that in the world I first possessed, the only person I had an open conversation with was an object that I gave to him to become a savior in his place while he was half dead.

The fact that it is an object that has not even been able to properly awaken people to such topics, and was only awakened after massacring millions of people who were running towards us, asking us to please die and save us.

The fact that it is an awakened product of the earnest wishes expressed by millions of people as they die, their wish to live, and their resentment toward me for not dying as a savior.

The light of this Holy Spear is the result of human blood and flesh.

Such a weapon does not deserve to be called a sacred spear.

“… ….”

Elisier, who had heard about my past for the first time, looked completely entranced, and Rosaria, who was hearing about my past for the second time, could not hide her displeasure.

Priscilla writhed in my arms with her tearful face, trying to comfort me.

“The object that was handed to me to be the savior of mankind was awakened by killing all of them. What is this if not a symbol of failure?”

After finishing my explanation, I smiled bitterly and unsummoned Gwangchang again. There was a much more gloomy atmosphere than right after the fight earlier.

This is why I didn’t want to talk about the past. Because the love that is spoken and the person who listens to it become depressed. But you can’t just gloss over it and ignore it anyway, so it’s best to vent about it quickly.

I clapped loudly on purpose.

“Okay, this is the end of the gloomy story. There’s still plenty of time, so let’s leave it at this for today. The remaining time is for rest. How is it?”

Because I intentionally skipped Friday’s culture class, I still had Friday evening, Saturday, and Sunday left until Monday. If that’s the case, I’ll be okay even if I’m droopy for a day.

I came with that purpose for at least a day from the beginning.

“Especially Elisier, you should rest much better. “Wouldn’t it have been a long time since you were in the demon world and couldn’t touch human objects?”

“…… “That’s right.”

“Then what do you want to do first? “Is there something you want to do?”

Elisier, who seemed to be thinking about something for a moment in response to my question, cautiously opened his mouth.

“I…… Chief maid. Is it really okay?”

“Have I ever lied about something related to you?”

“No! It’s not like that!”

Nica Justera, who was once a succubus but now lives a 180-degree change in life, questioned Beatrice’s words back without realizing it and then hastily corrected her words.

I still have vivid memories of receiving ‘education’ and being mercilessly instilled with the attitude and attitude of a maid.

“B, but the master said there was no need for help… ….”

“You have always been like that. “You haven’t changed one bit since you were young.”

From the time he was able to express himself properly, the youngest master always tried to solve not only simple but also important matters with his own hands. Even though your body is so tired.

There was even a time when he tried to prepare food from the kitchen with his own hands. Since his body is fine and he has two hands and two feet, he can eat at least his own meals.

That night, Beatrice gathered all the maids at his mansion. If the mummy hadn’t stopped him, the garden floor would probably have been covered in gastric juice.

Beatrice was convinced after that. He says it’s okay, and if you just believe in him, he’s the one who will take on everything on his own, so you have to stick by his side and figure out his intentions, and understand his intentions even if he doesn’t say anything.

Although she was a very demanding type of owner, Beatrice was confident. Hasn’t he been helping by my side for a whopping 18 years? If you can’t even do that, you’re disqualified as a maid.

“Listen carefully, Eustera. Master is a person who does not show that he is having a hard time. So, as maids, we must always understand Master’s intentions and move accordingly.”

There was a reason why I came here. You stay with the friends you made at school for as long as three days, and you don’t need a single servant to look after you?

It couldn’t have been that way. It was also clear that you wanted to solve everything on your own.

As soon as Beatrice finished cleaning his mansion, she quickly made a suggestion, and both the matriarch and the hostess praised Beatrice greatly and gave her permission to leave.

Beatrice, who took care of both her cause and practical benefit, was invincible.

“Yes, yes! All right!”

“If you understand, let’s go.”

“Yes! Hmm!”

Yustera cheered up and vigorously lifted the load.@@novelbin@@

The button on the bottom of the maid’s uniform burst open.

“… ….”

Beatrice sighed quietly as she looked at the button rolling on the floor and the lump of fat radiating an enormous presence between them.
