Last party member – 2
Serene was drinking at a tavern.
gulp.
“Big. This is the taste. I’m really mad at myself for being patient.”
She shouted, plucking a chicken leg.
“Add a bottle of alcohol here!”
“Do it with two bottles.”
“Oh, Mr Offens. I’ll change to two bottles here.”
“……”
“What the fuck!”
Serena jumped out of her seat and stood up.
And he noticed the bottles and snacks lined up on the table he occupied.
“Uh, um. This is not what I ate.”
“done. Why are you so tired?”
widely.
Soon the employee left the bottle and left.
Offense touched the edge of the table a little oddly.
Then he drank the whole bottle and said.
“If you live like that, you cannot live long. I was stressed.”
“……”
“Anyway, my darling, I noticed right away. Let’s have a drink.”
“huh.”
She sat back down and crossed her legs.
“Have you met Mr. Rissel?”
“How did know?”
“Because you asked me to come with you. I know he sent someone else because it didn’t work, but it must be Mr. Offense.”
“……”
“Go back. I have no intention of going to a maid party.”
She waved her hands.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid narrowed her eyes and asked.“Why not?”
“Why should I rather be?”
“Kyle is clearly behind Maid.”
“Well, that’s right. But Maid looks so kind.”
“……?”
“A good person will not grant my wish.”
When Offense heard that, he burst out laughing to the point of showing his throat.
“Uh-huh.”
“Wow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you laugh so loudly.”
“It was worth it. Is Maid good? Yes, I saw that right.”
“……”
“But being good and being stupid are clearly different things. He’s a nice guy, but he’s got one extra little haircut that’s awesome.”
Serena acknowledged him.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maybe it was because of Maid’s fine hair that the Caled Party, which had been going well in the first place, went downhill.But she shook her head.
“Why does Maid want to become a hero?”
“What are you talking about. That’s to defeat the Demon King…”
“So that’s not going to happen.”
“ok?”
“Mr. Kayle is thinking about defeating the Demon King. Killing the Demon King is just a stepping stone.”
Offense didn’t understand what he was saying at once.
Serene continues to explain.
“He is very dark inside. Surely, after defeating the Demon King, he will use his soaring fame and popularity to rule over the continent and empire, right?”
“Ugh. It’s something I hadn’t thought of before, but hearing that, I thought it might be possible.”
“yes. Well, that’s not going to work out. Starting with the emperor, there is no way to let Kayle run runaway from each lord.”
“……”
“But if you don’t at least have that ambition, my wishes won’t be granted. What are your plans after Maid’s extermination of the Demon King?”
Offense quietly shook his head.
It reminds me of the words Maid often used to say while we were together.
If you kill the Demon King, you have a blueprint in your head for a comfortable retirement life.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Maid was unsatisfied with excitement and salivated, explaining his retirement plans.It was very specific and sounded good, so I thought it would be good to retire like that…
‘Still, it’s probably not a plan that Serrain likes.’
Offense scratched his head and said.
“So, you don’t want to go with me?”
“yes. In fact, it looks like Kayle has already turned on. So, I decided to drink some alcohol today and think about it.”
“……”
“Mr Offense drinks a lot too. I still have the old feelings, so I will live.”
Offense picked up the candlestick on the table instead of answering.
And he took it over his head.
“……? What are you doing?”
“Wait a minute. This angle is not right.”
“This man is drunk.”
“I don’t know why everyone calls me uncle. I’m a year younger than Maid.”
“How old is Maid?”
“It must be twenty-eight now. And when you ask me like that, you didn’t even know my age? I would definitely have said it.”
“I wasn’t as interested in the time of my nails. Tomorrow I will forget about this.”
“Is that so? Ah, done.”
As the light recedes, Serene’s shadow grows longer.
It was exactly on her feet wife.
Serene said, holding up her glass.
“By the way, you look older than Maid. For quite some time… ugh?”
Serene fell into the shadows.
Offense fiddled with the edge of the table.
When an employee left behind a bottle of wine, he cast a spell that erased the perception of those around him.
Finally, he also hid in the shadows, who had erased the magic by tapping twice.
“Let’s talk for once. I’m sure you’ll recognize Maid too.”
Because I did too.
Offense returned with Serene after half a day.
Now, in front of me, Serene was bowing her head and muttering something.
“Offense bastard. A bastard who will eat his cheap shit. The poop that you ate will turn into poop again and come out.”
“calm down.”
“Leave me a little more swearing. I think my head is going to break right now? Every time the offense puts it in the shadows and takes it out, it stuns me.”
“Because he can only move to the shadows where his sight can reach. You must have struggled every time you came out of the shadows.”
“If anyone gets kidnapped, of course they struggle.”
By the way, now she is not tied up or anything.
Neryl offered to use restraint magic, but I refused.
Not only that, I even bit everyone in the party from their seats.
This is my father’s room.
Now, it feels strange to look around the room so old that even traces of my father cannot be found.
“Hey. Why do you kidnap people and just look around?”
“I thought it would take some time for you to calm down, so I was just looking at the scenery.”
“Is this desolate room worth a visit?”
“This is where my father used to be.”
At those words, Serena’s complexion changed.
Trail said.
[Kyaa. You’re pretty cool too. I chose this room on purpose, and I purposely threw that comment.]
‘okay. From Jeon Ji-yeon’s eyes, it seems that Serrain had a story with her parents. The key to the conversation should start with forming a consensus.’
The omniscient eye cannot see what happened to Serane with her parents.
It’s because they haven’t heard the names of Serein’s parents before the return.
Considering that the emperor stripped him of his title, he would have been a nobleman, but there should be more nobles in the empire.
Instead, I had already confirmed the secret of Serene’s Pigtail a while ago.
Surprisingly, her guilt was not particularly great.
Things like stealing or scamming to get money.
The wealth that he had secretly seized was so great that it was no less than me, who rolled and rolled as a special mercenary.
‘It’s amazing, but…’
Rather, I have a feeling that it would have been enough if it was Serene.
She said.
“Where did your father write? Was this your house?”
“uh. This estate is my hometown.”
“You were poor.”
“I am rich now. As you.”
Serena pauses.
She forcibly made up a smile and opened her mouth.
“a. What kind of me was living on a small donation from the temple.”
“It seems that the high priest of the temple you stayed in was quite corrupt.”
“……!”
“Evan Norin. You sold a healing potion with poor efficacy to the people of Yeongji, saying that the heavenly god gave it to you directly?”
“All, you…”
“And the money I stole disappeared like a lie. You reported a thief. Of course, the thief was you.”
“What are you! how did you know that Why is everyone scolding and scolding others?”
Serena jumps out of her seat and gets up.
On the other hand, I relaxed and leaned back on the backrest.
“Looking at those words, it seems that Kayld knew your past too, didn’t he?”
“…The past he recites is something you can dig up if you want to dig it up. It’s a pretty famous event for some people.”
“……”
“But what you said was done without anyone finding out.”
I smiled and changed the topic.
“Anyway, you are a very bad person. Wouldn’t it be better to give it back to the victims rather than go out alone?”
“huh. i knew i would be like this It sounds like a mouthful.”
“……”
“They just fell for the stupid people who said that they were given by the heavenly gods. With that money, it would have been better to just drink a month of medicinal herbs at the local herbalist.”
“Hmm.”
“They brought my money voluntarily and happily. I can’t claim ownership of that money anymore…”
She hesitated and added a word.
“yo. this.”
“late. You can just say it comfortably.”
“It’s okay. I want to be as uncomfortable with you as possible.”
“why? Will it be the same party now?”
“What kind of bullshit are you? I’m not going in!”
“What is your wish?”
Of course, Serene’s mouth didn’t open right away.
Shall I float a little more?
“At first you reached out to the emperor. to make your wish come true. The Emperor must have commissioned you to assassinate Kayld.”
“……!”
“But sooner or later, Kayld seemed more suitable than the Emperor, so they changed routes, didn’t they?”
“……”
“I can’t do it twice if I change it once. Let’s hold hands with me this time.”
Serena took a deep breath and asked.
“I don’t know if you even know this, but I want to abolish the priesthood on the continent.”
“I have a lot of ambition.”
“Can you grant me this wish?”
“no. Not at all.”
Serena’s expression went blank at my immediate answer.
I whipped my ears once and said.
“It’s annoying.”
“madam. To be honest, I expected it, but I have to pretend to think about it even once.”
“I don’t intend to grant you my wish, but I still want you to hold my hand.”
“Kale said he would make my wish come true. you refused And you want me to come to the party?”
I replied with a grin.
“I don’t think Kayle will even make your wish come true.”
Serena’s complexion changes.
I continued.
“The purpose of that guy is not to kill the Demon King. After killing the Demon King, he would want to reign as a hero on the continent. That behavior is already the same as the Demon King.”
“You knew.”
“Looking at those words, I guess you were expecting it too? Why didn’t the clever man who guessed so far think that Kayle would break his promise to you?”
I asked in a soft tone.
“Is it because he’s the only one to look forward to?”
“Right. After all, anyone with such ambition is at least the closest person to granting my wish. What are you planning to do after killing the Demon King?”
“retirement.”
“under. Look at this, I thought it would be like this.”
I shook my head.
“I’m going to be leery of denigrating my retirement plans.”
“ha.”
“Anyway, I have no intention of abolishing the priesthood. So I thought I’d give you some other kind of help.”
“……?”
“Abolishing the priesthood from you is a means. Is there any other purpose you really want to achieve after you abolish the priesthood?”
For a moment, Serena’s lips trembled.
Let’s recall the subtle expression of Serrain that we saw through Jeon Ji-yeon’s eyes last time.
Recall what her personality was like before she returned.
Why was Serane so harsh on Kayle, and what did she dislike about Kayle?
When you think about what she likes and what she sets her eyes on, a hypothesis is established.
I whispered something in her ear.
The next moment, Serena’s mouth opened wide.
I bit myself and asked.
“How are you? Are you salivating a little?”
“……”
“Now choose.”
Serena bowed her head.
After a while, her mouth opened.
“Wait, that’s another story, Maid.”
“ok.”
“Did you say this is home? Do you have any family here?”
For a moment, my mother popped into my head.
okay. Mother is probably still in this estate.
in jail.
“There will be.”
“It’s a strange answer.”
“I have a lot of stories with my family. Anyway, why?”
“They say Kayle is trying to unseal the Jewel of Destruction. If it were that man, I think he would have taken your hometown itself hostage and threatened it.”
You haven’t explained your own chords yet, but have you already thought about it that far?
I nodded my head in admiration.
Then Serena said.
“I will help. Even so, I cannot forgive you for taking your family and hometown hostage.”
“yes? ah! You’ve already leaned toward me, but I’m too lazy to admit it right away, so I guess I’ve found a suitable excuse.”
“You can’t say it out loud!”
“……”
“Oh, no, it’s not like that, I’m trying to help out of a pure heart.”
“Anyway, thank you. That’s what I was trying to ask.”
I smiled and got up from my seat.
“Then shall we go? I have to say hello to the new party members.”
