Surviving the Reverse Harem chapter 37

37 – Illusion

“What the hell is Robert thinking?”

In the prince’s palace, Irelle continued to think without touching the dessert. He was nervous and he couldn’t concentrate on anything else.

After the incident at the social church, Irelle waited for Robert to contact him.

However, only other men contacted me, and I didn’t hear from Robert, who Irelle was waiting for.

‘It’s strange. Could it be that he didn’t leave me?’

Feeling creepy for no reason, Irelle looked around.

All of them were men who had pushed and pushed each other at least once.

Lately, I’ve pushed a lot while being pushed and pushed by Robert, but I wondered if I could have given up and left that much.

“No. No.”

When I was surrounded by Magi, even though all the other men had forgotten about me, Robertman remembered and came to find me.

“It doesn’t make sense that Robert is leaving me.”

Even if she didn’t have the blessing of the goddess, she loved me, but there was no way she would just give up and leave that much.

The longer I thought about it, the more frustrating it became. It was in the meantime.

‘Could it be that Robert originally loved me so the blessing of the goddess wouldn’t be affected?’

Then everything made sense.

Unlike other men, I was less obsessed with it, and the fact that I came to my rescue alone when I was surrounded by demons.

“It’s been strange since before.”

She didn’t understand why her fiancé left him and wandered around.

Other men would do anything to stay by her side, but only Robert left him and wandered around.

‘What if he wants to be the man he gets along with?’

Robert is handsome as his fiancée, and although he is from a marquis family, he lacks a lot compared to other men.

Unless Robert became more special, he would have been naturally forgotten by other men.

‘I must have left to become a man that suits me.’

Because he is lacking compared to other men, he becomes a hero to become a man who matches himself.

‘Even though I tried so hard, I kept pushing him away.’

‘Robert’s fine. He’s a warrior, he’ll make a lot of money soon, he’s handsome, he’s got a good personality, and he’s chaste when he’s riding a unicorn. Should I reach out first?’

Pink hair passed through Irelle’s head as she touched the coffee cup.

“…..I don’t think that b*tch should have been pushing against it by now while I pushed it away.”

Irrell muttered with a gloomy expression as an ominous thought came to mind.

“If the blessing of the goddess doesn’t reach you, maybe another woman can take it away, right?”

As the thought continued, Irelle’s expression became more and more strange.

There were many really special and handsome men around Irrel.

But, perhaps because of the side effects of her goddess’ blessings, it was a little strange to see her sometimes because men blindly liked Irrell.

Recently, as men’s strange behavior increased, I felt the need to reduce the number.

Come to think of it, Robert was the only man who did not have a strong obsession with Irelle.

Because he was such a Robert, Irrell wouldn’t have pushed him away if his pink hair hadn’t crossed his arms and made an unpleasant sarcastic twist.

“What is this?”

In an instant, I realized it instinctively. Now, it was the pink-haired Robert’s childhood friend who broke up the relationship like this.

But she may not be the only one flirting.

‘I’m sure all the girls in the party were really pretty.’

Only then did I realize. That there were three or four people next to Robert, acting as foxes and clinging to him.

She was okay with being taken away, but being taken away was something that should never happen.

I couldn’t even guess how many people were flirting and how much Robert had gone overboard. Irelle left the dessert and coffee she was eating and got up.

“Butler!”

“Yes. Did you call Irelle?”

“Immediately call the person in charge of Imperial Intelligence and the person in charge of intelligence in the shadows.”

“I understand.”

I couldn’t pass it on like this.

‘Should I just kill all the girls at the warrior’s party?’

Irrel’s eyes sparkled.

————————————————————————- ———————

Robert stretched. His body was sticky with sweat. His whole body was covered with sweat, as if he had had a nightmare.

After washing with warm water, he left the room, said goodbye to his parents and older brother, and moved to the mansion.

‘What kind of dream was this?’

It was very strange for a sword master to break a cold sweat like this.

When I entered the mansion, the party members were drinking wine in the garden.

“Oh, Robert. You came earlier than you said.”

“Sure. It happened like this. Why is it wine all of a sudden?”

At my words, the pink-haired Lena replied with a smile.

“This is not a wine that anyone can drink~”

“Really?”

“Yes. You can’t get drunk when you reach a certain level like us.”

“That’s right.”

“But you can get drunk with this wine!”

Lena smiled and poured wine into her new glass and handed it to me.

‘Even a strong man like Lena can take it? Have you ever had wine like this in your previous life?’

I took a sip without much thought, but it felt like my mouth was full.

“What’s in the wine?”

“This wine contains a small piece of the demon’s heart to prevent recovery, so you can get drunk comfortably.”

His expression frowned at the strange rejection.

“Did you really get drunk from a sip of wine? Robert’s face went red.”

“It’s cute~”

Amid the affectionate teasing of the party members, Kim tilted her head, wondering if my condition was strange.

“Robert, are you okay?”

“It’s a bit dizzy, but it’s okay…”

My body staggered on its own. I suddenly remembered the conversation I had with the Holy Sword.

-Robert You wouldn’t do that, but you shouldn’t consume the demon’s body!

From noble mtl dot com.

“Has there ever been such a person among the contractors?”

-Yes…

“What will happen if you consume the body of a demon?”

-He ate a little too much. Divine power condensed from the inside and exploded.

“I ate the demon’s body, but inside the contractor, the sacred power condensed and exploded?”

-Yes. I don’t know why, but strangely, when I ingest the demon’s body, something like an explosion occurs inside.

“It’s amazing.”

– So Robert. You must never eat the body of a demon! They don’t even taste good.

“Of course. Why would I eat demons?”

-Well, I’ll keep my eyes open and watch, but that’s not going to happen.

“Robert, are you sure you’re okay? Your complexion is really bad.”

“Sayre! Come here, Robert’s condition is strange.”

“Robert, are you okay?”

The worried faces of the party members gradually faded.

“Sayre! Come quickly. Robert has collapsed.”

Seir, who had gone to the bathroom at the loud noise, hurriedly approached.

Sayre carefully placed the fallen Robert’s head on his lap and examined Robert’s body.

‘Sacred power running rampant inside Robert’s body?’

‘I’m glad I found it quickly.’

Beads of sweat formed on Seir’s forehead, which suppressed the rampaging divine power.

Seir removed his hand from Robert’s body when the beads of sweat that started on his forehead slowly came down and hung on the tip of Seir’s chin.

“Is Seir Robert alright now?”

At Lena’s urgent question, Sayre smiled faintly and nodded.

“Yes. Fortunately, the holy powers that were rampaging in Robert’s body were put to rest.”

“Is it because of the wine I gave Seir?”

“Wine?”

“Yes. I gave Robert some wine with a bit of the heart of a demon.”

Seir patted the crying Lena.

“It’s not because of the wine.”

“But as soon as he drank the wine I gave him, his complexion went bad and he collapsed.”

“Lena. The warrior who is the contractor of the holy sword has great immunity to demons. It’s absolutely not true that Robert collapsed over wine that we can drink.”

“Then why did Robert collapse?”

Seir said with a dark face to the party members staring at him.

“Every time I borrow the power of Holy Sword, it seems to be a reaction to the accumulated things.”

“Ah…”

Except for Kim, the party members sighed.

‘Reaction to the contract with the holy sword?’

Kim, who had just heard of it for the first time, was hesitant, but then she asked Sayre, a candidate for sainthood.

“I’m really sorry. What is the reaction to the contract with the holy sword?”

Seir, who was the only one who was kind to Kim, replied.

“There is a difference in class between Holy Sword-nim and humans. That’s why every time a human receives Holy Sword-nim’s power, it puts strain on their souls.”

“Then, Robert-hyung until now…”

“Yes. You pretended to be okay with us, but the shock was building up in your soul.”

“Is there any way to solve this?”

Seir shook his head quietly at Kim’s words.

“Obviously… Kim said she wasn’t shocked that she herself was different from her other contractors.”

Scarlett answered Lena’s tearful words.

“I guess he pretended to be okay because he didn’t want other people to worry. Robert is a warrior.”

“Like an idiot, I didn’t even know that Robert was being ruined like this…”

“I can’t leave patient Robert here, so I’ll take him to the church.”

As Seir, who was carrying Robert in her arms, was out of sight, Kim came out of her mansion.

“If you raise your stamina, it will be better.”

Kim’s nights were longer than the days.
