215 – Lane Choice
Mana scatters.
Bright red magical energy flashed like lightning in the air, and in an instant it became a single flame, responding to Rain’s emotions and swirling around him like a storm.
“now… What have you done?”
It looks emotionless, but the emotions contained in that voice are directed towards Hestia.
“dare… you?”
Like a child whose toys are stolen by a younger brother.
I was embarrassed to see Rain sending his naked emotions to Hestia, but on the other hand, I was relieved.
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
It was not an ordinary contract, but the effect of the oath that he had strengthened in his own way was still alive.
And that Lane was genuinely angry.
“stop.”
“Keugh!!”
The binding of the oath and the simultaneous manifestation of the commandment.
At the same time as the magic power that had been revolving around Lane stopped moving all at once, Lane’s body also collapsed, unable to withstand the double restraints of the promise and the effect of the Word Spirit.
As she collapsed on the floor, she stared at Hestia with her eyes widened to death.
lively eyes.
There was no way he could properly understand anything he said to Rain now, whose bright red veins were swollen as if they were about to explode at any moment.
Perhaps this time, even if a person who was called a great sage who was unmatched in terms of wisdom came, he would have no choice but to pay his respects.
“Hestia.”
“How did it work out better than I thought?”
Responding to my words with a bright smile as usual, Hestia walked around Lane with light steps.
I felt a subtle sense of separation from Hestia’s light steps, as if going for a walk, but in fact, everything is solved if I think that Hestia has been strange.
“Is that what it looks like?”
“no? Am I always treating you as ‘Hestia’?”
Hestia.
Is that really what it means as an individual name?
Or did it mean that she was treating me as a goddess?
“First of all, shouldn’t we do the lane first?”
“… right.”
The restraints of the oath and the command of the word prevented movement. If it were Rain, he would fully understand how pointless it was to struggle in this situation.
“Aww!!!!”
Still, he doesn’t stop struggling.
Even if blood flows from the body, it does not stop.
His eyes widened as if he couldn’t stand it if he didn’t do this, and he continued to writhe in agony as if his entire body would be torn apart.
“Rain, give up.”
“no… Never give up!!”
“A job that monopolizes me?”
“no! About protecting the young master from the vixen fangs!!”
Saying that, Lane showed even more emotion than before.
“No matter what! Even if it increases the distance between you and me, I have a duty to protect you! That’s the duty and destiny of being a maid!!”
“When did the duty and fate of a maid become obsolete?”
“That kind of thing is fine!”
Hard!
Rain gritted his teeth and discharged his mana onto the floor, lifting himself off the ground just a little bit.
“I only want one thing! You don’t let other women get soggy!!”
“I told you many times that you could listen to me even if I spoke normally. It’s just that you don’t trust me, so you use violence and restraint.”
It’s real.
If a woman seriously asked me to increase more women, I had no intention of having a deep relationship with a woman from the beginning.
It was only natural that I had no intention of making hundreds of concubines like the emperor who lives in Judicial Orphanage.
“Even so!!”
“Yeah, this won’t work.”
Conversation doesn’t work
Due to having already kissed Hestia, Rain’s Lee Jung has already disappeared somewhere in the sky.
Even if we talk here, it won’t be any different than talking on the wall.
“Shall I faint first?”
“No, there is no need to be so drastic.”
If I were to use divine powers to damage the surroundings, I would try to stop them even if I had to use the Spirit of God.
Even fainting, I could do it on my own without borrowing Hestia’s power, so I opened my mouth while pushing Hestia back.
“wake up.”
“Huh… huh… !!!”
Rain, who has not yet calmed down and is breathing heavily, looks at Hestia.
Rain, whose expression proves that he is angry, grinds his teeth and uses magic by moving even slightly.
“Hehehe~”
However, Hestia seems to be unable to see such a Rain, as she hums and gathers the magical power of the Rain scattered around her, wielding flames and disappears into the distance.
“Then I’ll be bonfire. Have a good talk.”
“okay, thanks.”
“It was nothing… But at least I received the first kiss of the virgin goddess, so I must come back alive.”
After saying that, I looked at Hestia for a moment, who took all the sparks that Rain created and disappeared into the distance, then turned my gaze to Rain.
As if it still needs some time to calm down, I sit next to Rain, who is staring in the direction where Hestia disappeared, gasping for breath, and pass the time quietly.
About 10 minutes had passed since Hestia left without saying anything.
“… .”
“Have you calmed down now?”
“… yes.”
It may be a lie, but even so, the time it takes to arrest is a short time of less than one second.
It would be impossible to run away and catch Hestia at that time.
When the shackles of the oath and the power of the spirit of the word that restrained Lane disappeared, Lane fell to the ground as if collapsing.
“… It’s finally over.”
“There’s still a long way to go before it’s over, what are you talking about?”
I haven’t even caught a goddess yet.
I said that to Lane, but Lane, like me in the past, blankly looked up at the sky, looking at the birds flying far away.
blankly.
without having any thoughts.

Just like me in the past.
“You thought you were envious of the bird because it was free, right?”
“… yes.”
Lane’s thoughts could be roughly inferred.
There are all the thoughts that a person who looks at a bird with an expression as if he has given up on everything will do.
“Are you free enough?”
“Maybe.”
“Are you so dissatisfied that you couldn’t redeem me?”
“… yes.”
Lane, who slowly got up, looked at me, then looked at Hanleung again and complained.
“I know what greed is. I fully understood that what I said was close to sophistry, and I understood more than anyone else that I was crazy.”
Even so, even though I was crazy, I couldn’t suppress the desire to monopolize me.
No, I didn’t want to suppress it.
“In a way, I met him for the first time in this life. In the end, it was people like Neros and Ciel who were by his side.”
Rain also has a great fighting sense, but compared to the two, he’s honestly inferior.
And in a situation where I was inferior to Minel in terms of experience, the thing that Lane could be proud of was the person he connected with me first.
“There is Rianne who is better than me in the position of maid. There are a lot of people above me when it comes to combat, and I have nothing to say when it comes to looks.”
He may have had some sort of inferiority complex.
No matter how much I treat Lane as equal, even if the other women treat Lane as equal.
From Lane’s point of view, it would not have been possible to see everyone equally.
And the small emotions that have accumulated and piled up like that… As the system collapsed, Rain’s true face was revealed, and it came out on the outside.
“So I wanted to monopolize it. I needed a boy who only looked after me even when I was with other people.”
But, in the end, the end of that obsession is this.
“I fell prey to Hestia-san’s provocation by the young master’s side and showed rudeness.”
The surrounding situation is fine, considering that Lane was about to run amok.
However, it cannot be said that there is no damage at all.
The roads have been destroyed, and few people around have been left behind, but there is no guarantee that anyone paying attention to this level of commotion will be without ah.
“… It seems that I am not suitable for the royal family.”
While standing next to Lane who said that and supporting her, I just opened my mouth and stroked her hair.
“To be honest, Lane. If you are in charge of the royal family, it will be absolutely impossible for you to divide me equally.”
“I guess so.”
While accepting my answer, I moved my hand from Lane’s head to his hand with a bitter smile and slowly walked away.
“Still, there’s nothing wrong with being by my side.”
“… yes?”
“No matter how hard it is, I’ll stop all women if I attack them as vixen, but is it really possible to cut down a woman who’s soggy on me or a guy who’s blocking my way?”
It didn’t take long for Lane to understand what I meant.
“Yes, even if it’s a god, I’m prepared to tear it limb from limb if it gets in the way of the young master.”
“… I hope the target is an enemy, not a woman.”
So I went back to my room and spent the night in the same bed as Lane.
“The preparations for going to the divine world are complete.”
The day of the final battle has finally arrived.
