Breaking Falsehood – 3
Somel jumped up in panic.
“Ugh. Who, who?”
Idria approached Somel as she was floating.
The light of the lantern illuminates her face.
Purple hair and eyebrows that look very unnatural.
Empty golden eyes that make you feel empty.
It was the same hateful appearance before the return.
Idria opened her mouth with her characteristic infinitely languid tone.
“No matter how insignificant it may be, she is a spouse of a good vessel, so she should be courteous. Don’t tell me why you have to die.”
“……”
“You put a precious soul into Mariana. The ghosts who died during the advent of the 2nd Demon King will come to this territory after the spirit of Lephia. In ten years or so, it will become infamous as a demon-possessed manor.”
“What are you talking about!”
“Then who do you think stupid people think the culprit is?”
Somel’s lips trembled.
Idrina nodded with satisfaction.
“It would be a great lie. But I realized later, that there was a blind spot.”
“……”
“I thought that Mariana might escape from the territory at night because of the suspicion and pressure of the residents. Then it will take many years for lies to grow again in the new territory.”
“What are you talking about?”
“So we try to make it impossible for that woman to leave the estate.”
I immediately knew what he was talking about.
Also, thinking about it is truly a model of the Demon King.
“If the husband you love suddenly disappears, won’t you remain on the estate in the hope that you will return home someday? No matter how much hatred and persecution they receive.”
Naturally, Somel had a face that did not understand what he was saying.
However, he seems to have thought that he could not stand still any longer due to the atmosphere in which he was returning.
“I don’t know what you’re doing, but get out of here. Otherwise……”
shit.
Then Idria suddenly snapped her finger.
“I think it’s better to have fun than just to kill.”
goofy. goofy.
Suddenly, Somel’s body began to harden.
No, it was originally hard, but… this is what it is.
‘Are you turning to stone?’
what is that I don’t think it’s even magic.
[If I had to say it, maybe it was a curse.]
‘Shit. You can do all sorts of stellar things, yes. That the devil is.’
[In other words, Idria is unusual.]
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Meanwhile, Somel’s entire body was turned into stone.It was like a well-made statue.
Idria held onto her stomach as if it was a lot of fun and smiled softly.
She even turned over in mid-air and rolled her feet.
“Ahaha. look at the face A masterpiece, a masterpiece.”
“……”
“Where would you like to hide that? Where should I hide…”
Her paroxysmal laughter stops.
And instead he smiled.
A smile that looks so cruel.
“Where do you have to hide to become the best lie?”
Soon she clapped lightly.
And once again slap your hands.
whoops.
Something cracked open and started to open.
Somel’s stone statue is sucked into the space.
drop.
That cuts the screen.
Then I heard Neryl’s voice.
“Maid? what’s the matter.”
“uh? what.”
“hand.”
I looked down at my hands, more precisely my fists.
He is giving it enough strength that his entire hand turns white.
I relaxed and said nothing.
“Suddenly, my back hurts, so I’m putting up with it.”
“Did I hear you right?”
“Anyway, let’s go back. Mariana’s house.”
Xenia tilts her head.
She was conscious of the lord and whispered to me.
“Marianna said she was exhausted from this work and had to take a day off. Ardwin also decided to rest.”
“It did.”
“So, wouldn’t it be better to mix with that crowd and give a speech or something to your reputation?”
After all, these guys now care more about my reputation than I do.
I smiled and opened my mouth.
“That’s important, but what’s more important now is Mariana.”
“yes?”
“I’m trying to find Mr. Somel.”
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
My brief answer surprised Neryl and Xenia, but probably not as much as Trail.He exclaimed in a tone that would have opened his mouth if he could see it.
[Can you find me? Junji’s eyes just couldn’t show me where they hid Somel?]
‘There is a place I guess.’
[Well. I admit that you’re exceptional, but it’s a bit pretentious to say that you quickly noticed the devil lord’s tricks of lies.]
‘As you know, I have a deep connection with the Demon King.’
The Demon King of Lies was also viciously strong in his own body, but he was more likely to swindle his stomach than that.
It’s not because it’s efficient.
I do it because it’s fun.
The same goes for hiding Somel.
‘Where are you going to hide the best lie,’ he said. As soon as I heard that, I got a feeling.’
[……]
‘My intuition is very random, but I’ve never been wrong once the tip comes in.’
[Hmm. Well, there’s nothing I can’t believe in the things I’ve done so far… So, where is it?]
‘I told you before.’
Let’s go to Mariana’s house.
We made our way back to Mariana’s house, barely through the throng of crowds.
The two hats were completely separated from each other, perhaps not just saying that you should take a full day off.
Ardwin sleep talk.
“Ummm. haha. you’re doing it pretty well After all, the demon king of thrift…”
Neryl speaks in an absurd tone.
“What is the Demon King of Thrift? Is it the Demon King who saves taxes?”
“If you give meaning to each word, you lose. So did Ophelia.”
“I don’t even want to win.”
Anyway, I shook him up and woke him up.
“Ardwin. Wake up.”
“Well? Ah, Maid.”
Fortunately, he woke up with a normal conversation.
“What is it? Didn’t you go to the lord? hamm.”
“Wake up Mariana, too. No matter what, we can’t wake him up.”
“ah. yes.”
He looked at my serious expression and woke up Mariana without a word.
Soon we were able to sit face to face at a table in the kitchen.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Mariana looked tired, but she tried to erase the sign from her face and asked.“Anything to say?”
“Sudden question, but where is Somel’s room?”
“……yes?”
“Answer me first.”
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Mariana didn’t answer right away.Ardwin answered instead.
“It’s the last room on the second floor.”
“Can you guide me?”
“Uh, it’s always locked there. My mother couldn’t even go there.”
Then Mariana came to her senses and opened her mouth.
“The key is here. Open it with this.”
She always seemed to have a key in her pocket.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maybe one day, when my husband returns, I can open it right away. for 13 years.“mother. Would it be okay?”
“Mr. Maid is a warrior. If you do what the hero tells you, won’t anything fall off?”
We laughed along with the playful tone that seemed to have been made on purpose.
Somel’s room opened like that.
Of course, there is a lot of dust.
“I was going to clean it up when he came back. To make us pay for the sins of leaving us for a long time.”
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Mariana said so in a calm tone.But his voice was already wet.
‘Well.’
There was something like this during our quest before returning.
Resolving the disappearance of people in a small mountain village.
When I found it to solve the quest, half of the personnel had already disappeared.
I found out after a while, but the quest was Idria’s hands ‘for fun’.
So, where were those who disappeared?
‘I was right next to you.’
[yes?]
‘I was right next to those who cried and cried over the loss of loved ones. Idria was delighted to see the deception she had made.’
[……]
‘The Demon King can hide or move something by twisting the space, just like he did with Somel. It’s not magic, it’s not magic, it’s not necromancy, it’s not magic.’
warrant.
It is an unknown power that is unknown to mankind, which is only allowed to the Demon King.
Before the return, Serrain had received a revelation from the gods and was even aware that this strange event was due to the power of the Demon King.
But I couldn’t solve it. Because nobody knows how to tear the space apart.
‘So it was developed.’
[ok?]
I grabbed the sword.
Neril asks, startled.
“uh? what do you do?”
“Neryl. I am a warrior after all.”
“What suddenly?”
“Have you already confirmed many times that Kayle and I have strange abilities that others cannot understand?”
“Uh, what. Yes, though.”
“So, from now on, don’t think strangely about what you’re doing, just watch. It’s all the same.”
Everyone did not understand English, but quietly took a few steps back.
I am grateful to them for trusting me without asking questions.
[therefore? What are you really trying to do?]
‘Have you ever ripped through space with a sword?’
[I think it was transferred to Ardwin…]
‘The feeling of your fingertips is different when you just cut through the air and when something power blocks you. Whether it was a shield, a mana barrier, or a prison spell.’
[……]
‘If you apply the right force to the right location according to the feeling of that fingertip, you can break anything. Simple principle.’
This time, the only power that stood in the way was the power of the Demon King.
In a way, it could be said to be an applied version of ‘cutting what you want’.
Trail exclaimed in an absurd voice.
[Not that simple! What kind of human destroys power?]
‘What if I even surprise you?’
[To you?]
‘Before the return, I solved the quest, and Caled was surprised. No, should I say I was angry rather than surprised?’
He was furious at taking away ‘what he had to do’.
At that time, I almost got kicked out of the real party.
If it hadn’t been for the members of the party, including Neryl, to vote against it, it might have really happened.
Anyway, I told Trail.
‘All the heroes in history were able to resist the power of the Demon King. If you are helpless in your power, what are you doing as a hero?’
[You weren’t a hero when you developed that skill. Hey.]
‘Well. Right. Was it different from the cotyledon?’
[Ah-oh. If you can’t speak.]
I ignored it and used the technique.
‘Tear the space!’
[Honest, honest.]
-Ceek!
Unlike other techniques, this technique has a very slow sword speed.
Enough to see even a beginner’s eyes.
it’s bound to be
Tearing through space is like sawing thick, hard wood.
“Ugh.”
I clenched my teeth as I felt the muscles all over my body scream.
little by little.
The space started to hurt.
It gradually opened up, making something beyond sight visible.
I cried.
“Zenia! put your hand here And bring out what you catch!”
“Yes Yes!”
Xenia hastily did as she was told.
Soon she swung something back and pounded her ass with the same momentum.
He shouted with a slightly shriveled face as if he was a little embarrassed.
“I’m fine!”
“I didn’t ask.”
“Ugh. Let me pretend I didn’t see it.”
“I’ll think about it. More than that, Maid, what did you just do? What did I see?”
I put the sword in and changed the topic.
“Better than that, Xenia.”
A human-sized stone was lying on top of Zenia’s fallen body.
I spoke calmly.
“Put it up once.”
“Ah yes. ……uh? It’s a statue.”
She carefully erected the statue.
Suddenly, a startled voice came from behind.
“honey!”
It was Somel.
Idria brutally hid Somel in the nearest place.
As if laughing at Mariana who was waiting so eagerly for her.
He left her with the worst lie.
Then Trail murmured in a cheerful tone.
[It’s really great. You broke one of his lies.]
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Mariana hugged Somel’s statue and cried profusely for several minutes.Ardwin also brings tears to his eyes.
how much time has passed
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Mariana, who had barely regained her composure, opened her mouth.“Is this my husband?”
“yes. This is the work of Demon King Idria. Please don’t ask me how I knew.”
“Do not worry. Considering what you’ve been up to, I don’t even want to ask this much.”
She wiped her tears and continued.
“But I want to ask you this. Can my husband come back to normal?”
I wasn’t quite sure about that.
It is to break the curse of the Demon King.
There is only one solution that pops into my head right now.
tuk.
Then Neryl tapped me on the back.
Looking back, she was saying this with her eyes.
It’s okay, so you can answer me.
I felt a little relieved and slowly opened my mouth.
“of course. When the Demon King dies, the curse will be lifted.”
“……!”
“And needless to say, the Demon King will die at my hands.”
To my surprise, Mariana’s expression softened.
She nodded her head with confidence.
“Of course it will. I asked a stupid question.”
“Mr. Mariana.”
“Even though it looks like this, I am truly grateful for the opportunity to meet the husband I have been looking for for 13 years. Hero Maid.”
She bowed her head to me with sincerity.
Then Ardwin said:
“I am also very grateful. For making my mother laugh like this.”
As always, I mean, this guy is pretty mature when he’s normal.
Then Trail said something in a happy voice.
[Look at this.]
＜Maria Ain considers you a ‘benefactor of our family’＞
＜Ardwin Ain thinks of you as ‘the coolest brother in the world’＞
Hmmm.
I gently lifted my head up to hide my blushing face.
Then, suddenly, Ardwin shouted.
“mother. I made up my mind.”
“yes?”
“I will follow Maid.”
“What, what?”
“I’m going to follow my brother and kill the Demon King. And I want to put my father back.”
