Last party member – 3
Kayle had been homeless for a long time.
He clumsily peels the skin of the rabbit he has caught and roughly grills it and bites it in his mouth.
he grumbled.
“It’s terribly tasteless. Lissel did a great job on one dish.”
That was then.
whistle.
A notice appeared in front of his eyes.
Kyle thought, grinning.
‘What are you going to say this time?’
After Caled called the official ‘Demon King’ the other day, communication with the official has become much more frequent than in the past.
The new sentence appeared as follows:
＜Serain Magnus and Lissel Bint have joined Maid and the others.＞
＜Serine Magnus and Xenia Said are going to work together to use the Magical Purification.＞
＜If the purification of the two is done, the activation time will be significantly reduced.＞
Kyle’s face hardened.
‘Cerrain joined? No way.’
Is it that Maid decided to grant an extraordinary wish, ‘I will abolish the priesthood’?
Then the text was written again.
＜Kill Maid Mohan as originally advised.＞
＜Or kill Serene Magnus.＞
Kayle pondered for a moment.
“Hey, Demon King. It’s difficult to say in sentences like this. You’ve come all this way, how about showing up in front of me? I want to ask you something.”
Whoops.
A new sentence is written
It had a very different tone from what I had seen through official documents so far.
＜Certainly, you are a very special person too.＞
“Now you’re talking a bit like a demon king.”
＜It is difficult to appear in front of you now. You got too close to the Maid Party.＞
“What is the Demon Lord so afraid of?”
＜Don’t be afraid. Because Maid has Bion Kunze attached.＞
tuk.
He dropped the rabbit leg he was holding.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
My whole body trembles like an aspen.Yes.
Now Cald was afraid of Bion Kunze.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
More than what Idria fears.The memorandum continued to be written.
“I have no intention of blaming you. Because you must have killed Bion Kunze.＞
“……”
＜But it’s because the warriors are beyond cognition. Especially Bion Kunze.＞
Kayle bit her lip.
The Demon King asked through the official text.
＜So? What are you curious about?＞
The speed of writing the sentences was faster than I expected.
It’s almost like having a conversation.
Cald decided to make up his mind first.
About Bion later.
Let’s focus on this one for now.
“Based on the precedent so far, it seems that you can observe the world from the corner of your room.”
＜Not similar.＞
“What did Maid convince Serrain with?”
＜Hmm. It was a bit of an unexpected suggestion. Simply put…＞
Demon Lord Idria delivered the proposal Maid whispered in Serrain’s ear.
Then, in the next moment, Kyle burst into laughter.
“Uh-huh!”
＜What’s funny?＞
“Yeah, I see. Maid doesn’t know anything about Serena’s past or her parents, do you?”
＜It seems that way.＞
“So you could have made such a funny proposal. It was absurdly wrong.”
Idria neither affirmed nor denied.
Kayle’s head spins rapidly.
Soon he came up with a plausible plan.
“It was rather good.”
＜What?＞
“Serain and Xenia’s linking technique is definitely scary. But at the same time, it will be their last resort.”
So once.
“Let’s make them believe that things are going smoothly. We just have to make Serrain betray him at the decisive moment.”
The notice was not written for a while.
He seemed to be thinking about something.
But after a while.
＜Well. It seemed to me that Serene was attractive enough.＞
“Is it possible that the Demon Lord can understand the human mind? I’ll just pretend I didn’t hear it.”
＜Did you understand the human mind so well that both offenses and re-sells were taken away?＞
“……Shut up.”
＜Well, that’s fine. I still think it’d be better to kill Maid and Serane, but I’ll watch first since you’re so confident.＞
Caled, who lost his appetite, put out the bonfire.
And he got up and said.
“All I need is Maid’s reputation. If you’re sure he’ll come under me nicely and I’ve absorbed his reputation, kill Maid.”
＜Oh. That’s good.＞
“Are you going to show up at that time?”
The official document was not written for a while.
Kayle was convinced that the ‘writer’ was flirting with dignity for some reason.
After a while, the text was written again.
＜I will do that.＞
“great.”
＜or……＞
The sentence is cut off for a moment, as if paused.
But soon the next sentence was written.
＜Or I’ll meet you once, even when you’ve lost miserably this time.＞
“What?”
＜Still, it’s a puppet that moved quite well, but even the body should be collected.＞
Kyle’s expression wrinkled.
Serene greeted the party members one by one.
“hello. I was impressed with the view of the appant in the Tetra estate. Horrible…”
“I’ve given up on that nickname now, so don’t call me that.”
“Ah yes. Then can I call you Neril sister?”
“……!”
Serene, who was very fond of Neryl, said to Xenia.
“It’s been a while. Could you give me another ride on Agrill next time? The scenery was very nice back then.”
“okay. If it was Serrain, Agril wouldn’t refuse. He is a believer who worships the same heavenly god.”
“Ahaha…”
With zero piety, she smiled vaguely and turned her head to Ardwin.
and stroked his hair.
“It’s so cute that you look bright. How old are you?”
“after. Get your hands off your head right now. It would be a mistake to judge me by what I see.”
“Yes. It’s a bit like that.”
Next is offense.
“I’m sorry for bringing you rough.”
“Mr. Leesell. It’s been a few days, but it seems like a long time since I’ve seen you.”
“Aren’t you mad at me?”
“Because Mr. Rissel has never done anything directly harmful to me. There was only a slight difference of opinion. I wish you all the best in the future.
She quickly turned to me.
“Okay, I said hi to everyone, but it starts slowly. What should I do specifically?”
“I think one is missing.”
“Did everyone say hi?”
“…what if that’s the case.”
I slowly explained the operation.
Serene shook her head with a look of understanding.
And he opened his mouth sweetly.
“I won’t.”
“ok?”
“I was wondering what you were going to do… and purifying the magic trick? That comes at a cost. What if the heavenly god takes my life?”
I wrote it before returning.
Come to think of it, with what words did Kayle persuade Serrain?
Well, it’s useless to come and think about it now.
At that moment, Xenia took out a branch of corruption.
“It’s okay with this.”
“This?”
“If you break this branch before casting the spell, there will be no cost. Neril made it for me.”
Serene looked at Neryl with a look of disbelief at those words.
“No matter how horrendous… Oops, um. Even if Neryl-san’s skills are great, what do you do?”
“It was more amazing than you thought. And didn’t I call you my sister?”
“That was just something I said.”
“why.”
“Anyway, I was able to confirm the power of the Maid Party. It’s amazing.”
The story behind it seemed sincere, not made up.
damn.
I clapped my hands lightly and said.
“therefore? How long do you think it will take the two of you together?”
Serene and Xenia look at each other.
They put their hands together and hugged each other without saying a katabuta.
Then he closed his eyes and licked his lips so small that he couldn’t hear them.
It is a prayer to the heavenly god.
after a while.
Xenia opened her mouth.
“I am very embarrassed to say this.”
“it’s okay. Tell me.”
“I think five minutes would be enough with Serrain.”
I pursed my lips slightly.
Xenia said that it would take about 15 minutes to activate if you spread the spell alone.
But just because one Cerein joined, it was reduced to 5 minutes.
Serena scratched her head sarcastically.
“Oh, no. Rather, Zenia-san’s sophisticated technique is more surprising. I am just ignorant and full of divine power.”
“Huhu. You have been greatly favored by the Heavenly God.”
“Yeah, what. Well. Yes. What.”
“Is there anything you want to say?”
“Actually, I don’t really fear the heavenly gods or anything.”
“I heard it. From Mr. Offense.”
Serena tilts her head.
“Who is the offense?”
“I’m just going to treat you like someone who doesn’t exist.”
“Anyway, you’re so calm that you heard it. From a paladin’s point of view, that wouldn’t be a good thing to say.”
Xenia shrugged.
“To believe or not to believe is personal freedom. It’s a little strange that priests don’t have any piety, but I don’t think that’s something I’m going to mess around with.”
“……”
“of course! The Heavenly God is a person who should be loved and revered enough. Let’s talk together in the future.”
Serena then bowed her head.
I tilted my head and focused my energy on my hearing.
She muttered in a slightly trembling voice.
“I wish my parents were like you.”
What are you talking about?
[I’m sorry. If I had known the names of my parents, I would have been able to see them through the eyes of the omniscient.]
‘Nope. Even if I know, I don’t see it.’
[why?]
‘I got a feeling. I don’t know if it’s anything else, but that seems to be a secret that Serin really doesn’t want to reveal.’
If I even put that secret in my mouth, it would be difficult to win Serrain’s heart.
For the same reason, you’re not even looking at the secrets of Neryl and May Erenika.
‘Because that’s not what’s urgent right now.’
I clapped my hands and said.
“Then shall we start soon?”
The operation is simple.
Neril, Lissel, Offense, and Ardwin evacuate the territories in case Kayld unseals the Jewel of Destruction.
Xenia and Serene immediately begin preparations for the activation of the magic purification.
And I…
‘Fight against Caled.’
To be precise, it kills him.
widely.
The middle of the Baharma Mountains.
Caled stood with his back to the high cliff that seemed to last forever.
I said as I glanced around.
“You chose the wrong place. Did you even hit Bae Su’s Jin?”
“I don’t think I’ve been so cornered.”
“no. flocked Your clumsy plans have already been crushed.”
A smile hangs on his lips.
“Because Serene is here?”
“…Did you know?”
“It really hurts my heart. Why did you choose Maid, not me?”
chuck.
I took a step forward and answered.
“There is no other way to describe it other than character.”
“I wanted to tell you before, but I really annoy each and every one of your answers.”
“Originally, the truth is offensive.”
“Whoa.”
“But as I said before, I am very caring. So I will kill you without scratching your insides anymore.”
Sreung.
I drew my sword.
But Cald didn’t pull it out.
Rather, he leaned back and opened his mouth.
“Do you think that the activation time can be accelerated if Serrain and Xenia work together and practice great magic?”
“You have a pretty good head too.”
“And the rest of the party members must be evacuating Youngji.”
“……”
“But isn’t that plan only possible under the premise that Serene is cooperative?”
what is that guy talking about
‘Would you like to narrow the distance?’
I approached him cautiously.
There is still a long way to go to get there in ten steps.
Let’s go slowly.
“Yeah, but Serene has promised to cooperate on this.”
“His promise is not that heavy. You’ll know when you’re together.”
“It will be different this time.”
“How much do you know about Serene?”
“As far as I know.”
“okay? Did you know that her parents were also mentally ill?”
Well. I didn’t know that.
Even before the return, Serene had never talked about such a personal history.
It was a name that didn’t even exist in Serane’s pigtails, so I didn’t even think to check it with Jeon Ji-yeon’s eyes.
Kyle opened his mouth.
“The Magnus were originally lords of the Voltrin estate. A nobleman with a count, a powerful family that has ruled the land for hundreds of years.”
“……”
“It seems that he was very popular with Youngji people as he was quite generous. But the Emperor arrested the former head of state, the father of Serene, and revoked his title. The land was also changed to the direct control of the emperor.”
That was a fact I knew.
But first I answered:
“It’s a story I didn’t know.”
“Because it was conducted very secretly through the high-ranking al-Qahad.”
“Why? Why would the emperor do such a thing?”
“You said Because the young lord is crazy If you leave such a person alone, you shouldn’t be the ruler of the empire.”
No, it must have been that he coveted the gold and silver treasures of Yeongji.
He is the emperor of the style that even you can do it yourself, even in Yeongji War.
“Serain had one older sister, but they say that she has been weak since she was young. After all, he died on his 12th birthday.”
“……”
“The Countess and the couple prayed earnestly to the Heavenly God. Please give me back my daughter! I prayed with tears of blood every night. And the Countess conceived Serene.”
“therefore?”
“As you know, Serene was born with a monstrous divine power. The Countess must have believed that the very existence of Serrain was that the heavenly god had heard their prayers.”
I took a light deep breath.
He seemed to know what had happened.
I said.
“no way?”
“okay. They believed that Serene was dead and my sister was resurrected. He believed that the heavenly god had resurrected him with a new body.”
“……”
“Unfortunately, Serrain and her deceased sister had a personality that was one hundred and eighty different. My older sister was a gentle, innocent girl who smiled brightly at everyone.”
“……”
“But Serene enjoyed her bubbly and flirtatious way of speaking, and she was naturally a bit rude. This difference was unfortunate for Serene.”
I slowly listened to him.
“The Count overlaid Serene with her dead older sister.”
“okay. You shouldn’t wear it like that, you shouldn’t laugh like that, you shouldn’t say that. It is said that he injected Cerein hundreds of times a day.”
“……”
“You know that Serene is different from the outside, right? It’s also a side effect of being injected by the Count. ‘Because I was taught to always be kind and friendly to others.’ That’s why I became such a unique person.”
I crossed my arms.
Then Trail said.
[That guy is behind his back…]
‘Is it a communication marble?’
[uh. When did you know?]
‘From the middle.’
[Leave it alone? I think you connected the communication ball with Serane. To shake up Serene and make her betray you.]
I replied with a grin.
‘therefore? Do you think it will work for Serene? You know our last conversation.’
[Uh… um. it doesn’t work never.]
‘So I came up with a better idea.’
I unwrapped my arms and took the communication ball out of my arms.
Kyle shudders.
I said.
“it’s okay. Keep going.”
“What?”
“Keep this tickling.”
I activated the communication bead and spoke.
“I will do it myself.”
