Chapter 119
In conclusion, Solitude and Sijo did not choose a lamp.
The two were staring at me from the front.
On the other hand, I felt happy, but I was embarrassed.
why.
Did Sijo and Solitude choose me and not the lamp?
“… … .”
kept silent
I don’t know.
Wasn’t solitude and Sijo only intertwined with me?
Ssuk-.
I slowly stretched out my arms.
Then, using both hands, he stroked them once.
At that moment, familiarity came along with a feeling of something tingling.
This was ‘relationship’.
while I wasn’t aware of it.
The guys and I were already communicating.
From nob le mt l dot comFrom nob le mt l dot com
Not as master and beast, but as each other’s companions.
“… … .”
So, I don’t know how to describe this feeling.
The friends I made in Saitan were countless.
Luna even showed me the feeling of love.
However, these feelings I’m feeling right now are different from them.
What should I say?
… … Intense, not that kind of emotion.
Should I say it’s a warm feeling?
‘… … thank you.’
I embraced solitude and Sijo in my arms.
Bubi-bubi-.
The guys looked frustrated as if they were out of breath, but soon they rubbed their bodies in their arms and trembled with aegyo.
I watched it, then turned my gaze to Taimi.
“How is it.”
“hmm.”
Taimi stared at me and the guys, lost in thought.
Then he smiled again and opened his mouth.
“Well, I can give you a passing grade. Originally, I would have given it a disqualification.”
“… … .”
Moment.
My eyes met Timmy’s.
Between the blunt faces, the seriousness of the eyes shine through.
… … Timmy must have already known.
The fact that I didn’t consider them real allies.
But in that brief moment, the guys and I confirmed our mutual trust.
Taimi, who watched him, eventually gave him a passing grade.
If I had forced Solitude and Sijo to come to me, Taimi would have given me a pass, not a pass.
‘… … She’s an instructor specializing in familiar horses.’
He must have done more research on familiars than anyone else.
How can I not know what loneliness and my eyes looking at Sijo meant?
From nob le mt l dot comFrom nob le mt l dot com
No matter how cheesy he may seem, Taimi is an instructor.
So when she said she would do research on the poisonous effects of solitude.
It wasn’t a direct threat, it was just revealing a subtle murder.
Because the instructors were never easy beings.
As I was lost in those thoughts, Tyme was speechless.
“Please cherish your familiar. They are like companions in your life.”
Having said that, Taimi bent down and stroked Shijo and Solitude.
Looking at such a taimi, I said with a smile on my face.
“All right.”
.
.
.
So.
I successfully passed the familiarization test.
Finally, he was officially recognized as the owner of Solitude and Sijo.
The development of my bond with them is a bonus.
* * *
After passing the familiarization test, I went out into the second year corridor again.
Then I moved my steps and left the 2nd grade building.
“Are you asleep?”
When I lowered my gaze, I saw the solitude and Sijo sleeping soundly.
Although the name of solitude was named black flesh, the word solitude was already stuck in my mouth and was not easily separated.
When I introduce myself in front of others, I think it would be better to call it black skin, and I feel comfortable calling it solitude.
It seems that he also likes solitude, a word that usually refers to himself, rather than a newly acquired name.
I thought maybe it was because I called it loneliness when I first saw him.
It didn’t seem like he hated the name Blacksal, though.
Together.
‘… … What is this feeling?’
The warm feeling I felt during the familiarization test is nowhere to be found.
suddenly.
A certain emotion hit me like a tidal wave.
It was fear.
I took my gaze away from solitude and founder and looked up.
In an instant, a beautiful woman came into view.
When I was a writer, a character that gathered the standards of beauty I defined.
Her white hair is topped with a crown made of woven rose thorn stems around it.
It made her feel the bitter pain just to look at her, tightly clamped like a bondage.
The moment our eyes met.
‘… … .’
I had to stand firm in my seat, unable to open my mouth.
He was a familiar figure.
From nob le mt l dot comFrom nob le mt l dot com
No, I couldn’t have known.
Because she and I have already met face to face many times.
As I stood firm in my seat, the woman with white hair spoke first.
“Oh, Mr. Howe. It’s been a while.”
“… … hello.”
The culprit who gave me fear, and the daughter of the devil, Diana, opened her mouth with difficulty.
Then, I quickly looked around.
Together.
Didn’t see.
Lene, who should have been standing next to Diana, was nowhere to be seen.
It was the first time he had to face Diana alone.
At this, the neck of the neck began to tremble without mercy.
‘body… … .’
not moving.
I couldn’t feel it, as if something had gripped my leg.
This was not an illusion of mine, but a phenomenon that actually happened.
However, the upper body was able to move, so he raised his head and asked.
“… … What kind of English are you talking about?”
“huh? what?”
Diana feigning innocence.
It was truly surprising to see him tilting his head and making an expression that he did not know why.
but.
Because I also didn’t fall behind anyone else when it came to acting.
“… … Oops, if you don’t want to talk, I have no choice but to respond.”
As if regretting it, he let out a sigh and slowly began to use mana.
My insides were burning rapidly, but I pretended to respond as naturally as possible.
The current situation was ‘psychological warfare’.
It was self-evident that I would lose to Diana if we fought sincerely.
But if Diana had really come to kill me, there was no way she would do such a trick.
She would have opened her ‘power’ right away and hit my neck.
so that.
‘You’re trying to talk to me.’
From nob le mt l dot comFrom nob le mt l dot com
Naturally, this assumption was made.
Diana didn’t come to kill me, she approached me to get some information.
And there was a corner that roughly guessed what kind of information they were trying to dig up.
that,
‘… … Is it about my identity?’
It was highly likely.
A tattoo on my neck.
This was the mark of Asen with a cross engraved in a round circle.
It was covered up using the dark attribute, so it was not discovered.
but.
Diana must have information about ‘the blood of the last Asen’.
Right now, there was a spy planted in the demon realm at the imperial academy as well.
In other words, it wasn’t strange to hear information about the Asen family from the demon king’s daughter, Diana.
Isn’t it the previous demon king and the family that killed her father?
‘There is a safety device.’
There’s no way I’d arrived in the Demon Realm without even finishing that amount of calculations.
There were things and safeguards that I tried not to be discovered as Asen’s blood relative.
The first is to cover up the mark of Asen’s blood and kin.
The second is the certainty that Peltz will not reveal the fact that I have gone to the Demon Realm to the human world.
From Peltz’s point of view, I, Asen’s blood relative, heading to the Demon Realm meant death.
Also, he probably didn’t want to inform the heads of the six families that he had missed a child who hadn’t passed the terms yet.
Because Peltz is a man whose ambition is unpredictable.
Even if it’s second to what skills follow.
And third,
‘Even before being possessed, Adele hid her abilities.’
When I first opened my eyes in this body.
A thick coat of powder applied to the hand.
It was Adele’s effort to hide her calluses.
So, things about Adele’s traits and talents were also revealed for the first time after the knights attacked me.
That’s why the servants couldn’t tell the six families about my ability, and I was able to escape.
Even after it was made public, it was highly likely that Peltz did not bother to divulge any information about me.
Useless information breeds suspicion.
Even if he explained the process of killing me and disclosed the ability, I would not have recorded the information since I was already a dead person.
In the first place, the Asen family must be something they want to hide even from the six families.
finally.
The fourth most important is
‘On the surface, it means that the Barares family is looking after me.’
Contrary to the past of falling into the man-made secrets of Crete, it was of great help to me.
so.
The information that Diana can guess that my identity is a descendant of Asen is,
‘… … The name, the appearance, and the degree.’
My appearance must have already been well known in the human world.
So, naturally, the spy would have sent information about this to Diana.
However, since my status was a viscount, I belonged to Count Leon.
It should have had more influence than the Marquis of Bondi, but it fell into the hands of Count Leon because he was torn apart.
This turned out to be rather beneficial.
Count Leon’s security was so strict that even the best spies could not hastily sneak in.
Even the servants in Asen’s mansion right now were the count’s spies trying to observe me.
So.
Diana is not convinced that I am a blood relative of the Asen family.
It’s just uncertainly similar to the appearance you know, so it’s just sending you doubts.
Even the appearance has changed a lot.
My body, which was bone-to-bone, was completely changed as it became healthy through training and sufficient meals.
Still, the original version remained, so there was nothing I could do about the similar appearance and name.
‘… … If possible, it would have been better to lie about the name.’
If he hadn’t even spoken the name ‘Adele’ in front of Crete, except for Saint Asen, he would have died.
Because he, the arrogant patriarch, knew if I was lying.
anyway.
I haven’t fully noticed yet.
The safeguards I put in place are obscuring the evidence of similarity in name and appearance.
So, you have to deal with this situation well.
If I make a mistake, the assumption that I am a descendant of Asen will quickly gain power.
After organizing my thoughts, I let out a light laugh and opened my mouth.
“Tell me what business you have. My face is about to heat up because we keep making eye contact… … .”
“Oh, are you abandoning Lene and liking me?”
“hahahaha, it can’t be. How could I abandon her?”
“yes? In fact, it’s Rene’s fault that I came to see Mr. Howe.”
“… … Miss, do you mean?”
if.
Are you saying I guessed wrong?
“If it’s about the young lady.”
“Oh, are you listening?”
I nodded at Diana’s question.
I wondered if it was possible that Renee had discovered my true identity.
“Actually, it’s because Rene never said anything.”
“… … that.”
stride-.
Before I could say anything, Diana took a step.
She gave me a beautiful smile as she stared at me frozen.
close.
The sound of Diana’s breathing and the sound of her heart pounded in my ears.
Before I knew it, Diana was tickling my ears with her lips.
“Why won’t you tell me, Rene seems to be very curious about Howie. What is Howe hiding? … .”
Ssuk-.
Saying that, Diana slashed my cheeks with her fingernails.
Before she had time to feel the bitter pain, her red eyes came into view.
“Who is Mr. Howe?”
Diana asked me.
I knew I had to use Position Exchange to increase the distance, but I couldn’t move because Diana’s powers were activated.
The sense that ‘something’ is binding me.
From nob le mt l dot comFrom nob le mt l dot com
Now even the upper half of the body has hardened.
And under Diana’s control, I tried to open my mouth at will.
“I am.”
Lips that are gradually falling.
… … Around the time I was frantically resisting Diana’s power.
closely-.
A hand that suddenly appeared in my field of vision grasped Diana’s slender arm.
Then, at once, my body was released from Diana’s control.
The moment I turned my attention to this.
“… … What, what are you doing?”
Rene’s face, distorted like a demon, dug into my eyes.
