221. wrong meeting (3)
Siana and Cain vaguely knew. The fact that Aren is related to the demons.
It’s like finding him who disappeared in the demon realm, and the red eyes that shine when he wakes up in search of consciousness for a while.
Everything pointed to the fact that Aren had a deep connection with the demons.
These are the two I have seen him the most closely.
Skin-to-skin, breathing, and emotions exchanged, but it made no sense that I hadn’t noticed Aren’s oddities.
just… … .
Because Aren didn’t say anything.
Because I believed Aren would confess everything someday.
I also kept quiet because I liked him.
As always, Sianna and Cain had blind faith in Aren.
It turns out that Aren hid that belief so far to prevent the resurrection of the demon king. I thought it was Aren.
It was also considered very dangerous.
At least in the eyes of the two women, it seemed that Aren was trying to shoulder all the burdens alone.
He would have tried to prevent the resurrection of the demon king, reveal that he was a great demon, and buy all false accusations and misunderstandings.
sacrifice.
Aren sacrificed himself to save the kingdom.
So Siana and Cain couldn’t help but be angry.
‘Whoever wants!’
‘why.’
I might not be able to see you forever. If something went wrong, Aren might have been taken to the kingdom and investigated while undergoing all sorts of torture.
In the worst case, it wouldn’t be strange if he was immediately executed on the spot for the crime of being a demon, and also for cooperating with the resurrection of the demon king.
It was a shame because there was a princess, Odelia, who watched the whole situation. In fact, it was a really dangerous moment.
Aren rolled his eyes slightly, as if he were being interrogated.
Even Cain and Siana felt lovable.
To be honest, I wanted to say thank you for hugging my neck right away and saying thank you, but there was something I had to resolve first.
“I just said it!”
Cyanna put her hands on her waist and shouted with an angry face.
“I have nothing more to hide! that that! Tell me about the evil tailed demons!”
chuck! The sword that comes up.
Sianna’s thin finger stabbed Aren’s heart.
“Put your hand on your conscience and make sure!!!”
Judging from her exasperated voice, Shiana was now very serious. No, I was pretending to be serious. When looking at Aren’s face, Shiana never gets angry.
“uh… … .”
As Aren thought about the answer, Cain stepped forward this time. Slam the floor once with the sword fish.
“Don’t think of cheating. Even if we close our eyes, there is a limit. You don’t think we’re fools, do you?”
Cain narrowed his eyes. If Aren lied even a little, that eye would be cut.
Aren also realized how determined the two of them were now.
I thought it was rather good because I decided to tell everything after this job was over. It was a difficult topic to bring up.
“Okay. I will tell you everything now.”
Aren let out a deep sigh, then looked at Cyana and Cain alternately.
‘Siana. Cain.’
When the demon king asked for three hearts, they were the first two that came to mind.
now… … It must be a relationship that you can really trust and entrust everything to.
These are people who think their lives are more valuable than their own.
Aren had a pleasant smile.
* * *
“uh… … .”
“So, you really are the Mama Mama tribe!? Aren!?”
Again, the two women vaguely expected it.
The fact that Aren has a deep connection with the demons and may be dominated by that power.
However, to be honest, it was surprising that Aren himself was a ‘real’ demon.
It’s not an ordinary demon, but a top-notch great demon, such as Hiven, Regalug, and Diamon, who tainted the human world with fear in the past!
My boyfriend is a demon!
‘The god of light man! What are you talking about!’ I felt like screaming.
What kind of bizarre situation is this?
“I couldn’t believe it.”
“I thought it was just that the power was there for a moment… … .”
Siana and Cain chewed their nails and shook their legs, unable to hide their embarrassment.
My boyfriend is a demon.
Maybe a husband-to-be, but not a person! If you’re not a person, how do you get married!?
Maybe that’s fine though? You’re just a human on the outside, aren’t you? Her personality is just Aren Blackfire. won’t that be a problem? It’s fine as long as you stay human.
Amid all the delusions and rationalizations, Aren spoke again.
“It’s not as strange as you guys are worried about.”
After Aren said that, he did something even crazier. This was something I really couldn’t do.
He became a great demon for a while, then returned to being a human!
With the thought, ‘If I want to confess, I have to do it hotly!’
Of course, Cain and Siana’s mentality was already in tatters due to the unfiltered mental attack.
It was a mental attack as if he had seen Cthulhu.
“what… … !?”
“Kyaa… … .”
Shiana was startled and before she could scream, she foamed at the mouth and fell backwards.
“ah.”
It was only then that Aren realized that he had delivered such shocking and frightening facts without time lag.
The position of the two women was not taken into account at all.
If, out of nowhere, Cyana said ‘I was actually a dragon’ or Cain said ‘I was a regressor!’
In that context, the surprised reaction of the two women is understandable enough.
“Poem, Siana!?”
Shiana was sobbing as if she had really fainted. He had lost all his strength, but his face, which was originally white, had become much paler, probably because of the loss of blood as well.
It seemed that Aren needed some time to accept the fact that he was both a human and a demon.
It was late at night, and everyone must be tired.
“haha… … First of all, Cain, you must be tired too, so take a rest. Let’s talk about the rest back to the academy.”
“Yes.”
Cain nodded his head with a trembling face. There was something more to say, but right now, as Aren said, it seemed that he needed to rest and cool his head.
“good night.”
Cain greeted him, and Aren nodded as well. Siana, who had come to her senses, was waving with difficulty.
* * *
The highlight of Act 5 ended much earlier than planned.
As usual, the demon king’s resurrection would take place in a month from now, but as soon as I heard in the royal castle in advance, things broke out.
The fifth act was over, but the semester was still going on.
If you remember that a semester is just the first act, there was a possibility that you could spend the rest of the semester leisurely.
Well, there was still a higher chance that the sixth act would be pulled that much.
So, you should prepare as much as you can.
for example… … .
smart smart
Sigh.
“Wow, you’re here.”
The madness of sneaking into the princess’ bedroom at midnight.
“Princess.”
Through the window Odelia had opened, I stepped into the restricted area. My heart was beating strangely and it was very uncomfortable to be nervous.
It would be the same for Adelia to feel uncomfortable.
At most, only the queen or ladies-in-waiting were allowed in this room.
If you observe this from a little distance, you can see how crazy I am right now.
Odelia greeted me in pajamas. Her finely combed hair shone softly in the moonlight. The more I look at it, the more beautiful the platinum blonde hair is.
“That, so… … . What do you mean by replacing it? If you do nonsense, I will call someone right away.”
“Not like that.”
I said that and passed Odelia.
“Hey, look! Where are you going!”
Odelia stomped her feet, realizing that I was heading to the bed.
I know my behavior is rude, but this was the fastest way to get her to understand.
‘Where was it… … .’
Think of the settings.
Entero is the archer of the Great Hero Party. There is a record of sending countless demons to the underworld by shooting them with arrows from a very far place with hawk-like eyes.
After the adventure, he married a woman from the Braveheart family and lived in the royal castle. At that time, he hid his weapons and powers somewhere in the royal castle.
I don’t know why, but this room is where he left his power.
“Aren, look! What are you looking for? Let me know if you need anything!”
Odelia grabbed me with an urgent hand. Because I kept fumbling against the wall of the bed.
“Please wait a moment. It will be somewhere here.”
A part of the wall with a different texture felt at that time.
‘It’s here.’
It was a subtle difference that would be hard to find without paying a lot of attention.
I placed my finger on that part and recited a spell to release the seal while flowing magic power.
“My arrow shaft has a griffon feather on it.”
After reciting the spell, a passage of magic appeared as if a sub-space appeared. It’s a familiar sight to me, but Odelia sat on the floor as if in shock.
“Would you like to go with me?”
I held out my hand to Odelia and said.
No need to explain further. A second ago, it would have been a cozy space of one’s own, but the gate opened out of nowhere.
I said it was related to the demon lord, and a secret room appeared in the room.
What can I say?
I entered the secret room with Odelia.
‘Anyway, you surprise a lot of people today. You’re building the karma stack properly.’
* * *
There were some changes from what we saw in the game.
When you pass through the entrance of the subspace, what originally appeared was a wide forest with a green background.
It wasn’t a real forest, but a subspace created by Entero’s magic, and the sight that appeared was not a forest, but a beach with waves crashing against rocks.
Shoot aaah
‘what?’
I thought it might not be a big problem, but it was true that even the slightest change bothered me.
“What the heck… … ?”
Odelia, who followed me, looked around every corner of the subspace. What kind of place is this place seen through the eyes of the wise?
In the game, Odelia says, ‘This is a very unusual room. I can’t explain it.’
As it is a high-dimensional sub-space magic, its structure must be unique. The sage’s eyes would see the structure of magic, so the first structure would have looked unusual.
The reaction now was different from the game.
She gave no special impression, and walked straight ahead to examine the glowing sphere in the center of subspace.
‘That sphere contains the eyes of Entero.’
That doesn’t mean ‘real’ eyes. It was just an eye-shaped artifact, but it was a fraudulent item that made the critical hit rate 100%.
“Ouch!”
It was at the time when Odelia was looking at the sphere.
the sphere… … It flew in suddenly and got stuck in my eye. To be precise, the light that enveloped the sphere was absorbed.
“Wow, it’s okay. Aren!”
Odelia hurriedly approached me and looked into my eyes. Fortunately, there were no major problems. There was a burning pain in the eyeball for a moment, but it quickly disappeared.
“Ah yes. it’s okay.”
He closed his eyes and replied.
Odelia furrowed her eyebrows and turned her eyes toward the sphere. Since light is the identity of the artifact, the sphere was no more than an ordinary ball.
“What happened? There is some power in your eyes.”
“is that so.”
Odelia’s eyes seemed to see that.
As soon as I calmed down, I immediately checked the status window.

[Critical Hit Chance 100% Secondary. The fatal part is visible.]
“ah.”
As soon as I looked at the status screen, I realized why one of the three gods, Entero’s eye, was stuck in my eye.
fate.
Damn fate was calling me to the finale.
At the end of Act 6, Ackerman, Sianna, Cain, Bell, Ponte, and Hoya fight the final battle against the demon king.
If they had grown up normally, the six of them would be able to safely fight the subjugation. Defeating the Demon King was the normal flow of the game.
So, if possible, I was going to start a civil war in the Pandemonium and wage a guerrilla war with the demon army… … .
One of the three gods entered me, so I was forced to participate in the battle to subdue the demon king.
Because the eyes of Entero are essential to subjugate the demon lord. Only with Entero’s eyes can you aim for the last hit.
I have to be Ackerman’s full force and help him.
After I force myself to go to the last place, something strange will happen, like killing my important people or killing me.
The system must have been playing tricks on me to keep me from leaking the other way.
[Story damage rate 89%]
As evidence of that, the damage rate has also dropped.
The fact that Entero’s eyes came to me meant that the development was closer to the completion of the elven prophecy.
‘In addition, the Demonic Form cannot be used for the time being.’
Due to the resurrection of the demon king, a lot of my power has been taken away.
It would have to be restored someday, but the stats and the total amount of magic itself were reduced, so it was impossible to use power.
‘It seems difficult to return to normal until the sixth act is over.’
Therefore, if you want to fight from now on, you must thoroughly do it in human form.
It was properly nerfed before the sixth act.
Well, it was the only way to clear Act 5 without losing friends, so I had no regrets.
On the contrary, since he even got Entero’s eyes, it seems that his fighting ability has been corrected in his own way.
‘Rather good.’
Descendant of the swordsman.
Now is the time to show the extreme.
Also, subjugation of the demon lord is, after all, a cooperative battle.
It might be safer to join forces than to run amok in the form of a giant demon alone.
More than anything else, Ackerman will gradually become a whole.
“Oh, is there a problem? Are you really okay?”
As I was staring into space with a serious face, Odelia asked worriedly.
Her blonde, almost gray hair fell below her shoulders.
The subjugation war could be prepared somehow, and now all that was left was Odelia.
Odelia’s role is to ascend the throne and lead the kingdom’s army to conquer the demon realm.
While she commands the kingdom’s army to deal with the monster army, the big frame of Act 6 is that Ackerman and his party carry out the demon king raid.
But the story went awry.
Perhaps the most important turning point, her enthronement ceremony, has gone over the water.
In order to prevent unnecessary sacrifices, he saved other members of the royal family, but he did not think of a clear solution in this part.
It’s just because I didn’t want to see innocent people die.
‘What do we do.’
He stared blankly at Odelia and pondered.
“What, what are you looking at? Did something get on my face… … .”
“ah.”
An idea came to me while looking at Odelia.

next day.
After completing all the schedules in the royal castle, we returned to the academy safely.
The secrets related to the demon king were decided to be quietly buried among the people involved.
It was a week later that the news of Odelia’s coronation as queen was heard.
