136 – Each person’s heart
“Juri!”
I hurried out of the room, held the door, and called Juri.
Unholy magic felt by Juri. I don’t feel it anymore. Juri opened her eyes wide and looked back at me.
“Oppa?”
Juri shrinks a little from my spirit.
I approached Juri with great strides. Perhaps, Juri was cursed by a witch? If not…… Is Juri a witch hiding her identity?
My heart is pounding. I grabbed Juri’s arm and released her magic power.
Tsutsutsutsu… ….
The sensing magic sweeps through Juri. If Juri is a witch or under a curse, there is no way she wouldn’t be affected by my senses.
“……….”
In conclusion, I did not sense any unclean magic from Juri. Is it an illusion? Seeing the Witch King’s sister Titis inside him, he seems to have become nervous.
“Ugh.”
Juri is shaking her arms in pain. Without realizing it, I was putting pressure on her hand. I let go of Juri’s arm.
“…… Sorry.”
“Ugh… No, brother. “Is there something bothering you?”
“……… Okay.”
Awkward air flowing. Juri looks at me with an awkward expression. It’s hard to see Juri’s face. It seems like you’ve been swayed by your emotions a lot lately.
Juri silently looked down at her arm that I was holding, then caught my eye.
“I… I’ll go?”
“Okay… Maya will be in the reception room.”
I’m taking a magic class with Michael. Juri nodded her head slightly and then walked away.
…… I think I made a mistake.
※
Juri turned her head away from Evan, her complexion sinking coldly.
‘I almost got caught.’
Juri accidentally released unclean magic. It was a mistake she never would have made, but seeing Evan hurt broke her heart. Evan, who had been sinking inside, was sweating and suffering. Or is it a side effect that gave Evan longevity?
Juri was the Witch King’s alter ego.
Right after Evan returned.
The Witch King deceived Evan’s memories and the world, becoming Evan’s younger sister.
It was fun living as Evan’s younger sister. It was the first time Evan ‘her brother’ treated her with care, and it was fun to see her brother’s precious presence by her side. It’s as if the witch prince Shin has also become a precious member of her brother’s family…… ….
How much time is left now?
Let’s enjoy it just a little bit more.
Juri moved her facial muscles. She pretended to be her pure self, something she had never done in her life… She makes an awkward expression. Her current situation is that she must be terrified by her brother’s scary appearance. Juri glanced back at Evan with an awkward expression on her face, then she ran into the living room.

Evan swung her sword in her gravity chamber and sank her heart. She overreacted to the word ‘witch’. In their past lives, witches enslaved innocent people and killed them. For a moment she wondered if Juri was a witch.
She did something she was sorry about.
‘I guess I should treat Juri like normal.’
If Evan treats her like usual, she will come back like usual. She already apologized.
The possibility of Juri being a witch has been eliminated. When Evan checked her insides, she felt no unclean magic.
Even if a witch appears.
‘There is nothing difficult.’
If you see a witch, just kill it. The Witch King must be planning something again. The Witch King of his past life brainwashed Evan and tried to pollute his mind. Isn’t this the reason why Evan was given life?
‘……….’
I’m not sure, though.
In fact, Evan knew where the Witch King and the witches came from. This is something he naturally learned while fighting the Witch King. Witches are artificial creatures created by magic tower wizards. They were trying to advance magic by creating gods or something.
That’s a witch. It was said that the witches were trapped in the underground laboratory of the Magic Tower. The research failed and the wizards tried to kill the witches. Afterwards, the witches massacred the wizards who tried to kill them and turned all wizards in the empire into witches.
Of course, this time will be no different. Evan decided to prepare himself. Because I don’t want his family to be kidnapped again. It’s enough for Maya to be kidnapped by someone like Mushumahe.
-Master, what’s going on?
Maya read Evan’s emotions while swinging the sword together. Maya was now able to read Evan’s small emotional changes. Evan shook his head slightly.
“No, it’s nothing.”
There is no need to worry Maya about uncertainty. Maya looked at Evan and whispered softly.
-Master, Maya is no longer easily kidnapped.
When kidnapped by Elder Mushumahe.
Maya felt the time-stopping magic in her body. It was a great inspiration to Maya… Maya thought that she too could use time magic.
When the Witch King gave Evan his life.
Maya was able to enter the absolute space created by the Witch King. If only there were enough time. Maya thought that she would get closer to Master if she stepped into this realm of time and space that seemed out of her reach.
Maya’s goal is to become strong enough to protect Master. Because Master is Maya’s only family and the most precious person in the world.
Her Maya’s heart is beating loudly. An unbearable heat rose in her body. Maya, who is receiving training from Cornelia to become her fiancé, is gradually opening her eyes to the relationship between men and women. For Maya, the only future husband she has is Master. She has no other male dragons or human males in Maya.
Master, father, family.
All of these modifiers come down to one Evan.
Her heart is beating as if it will burst. Maya was dizzy. Does Master know about his condition? When Maya said, ‘Maya is no longer easily kidnapped,’ the teacher just placed his hand on Maya’s head as if he was amazed.
“Okay, work hard.”
The teacher’s words are spoken to his young disciple. Although Maya is now losing her innocent childlike appearance, she smiles innocently. Because Master likes Maya’s pure appearance. Because Master was healed by Maya’s childlike appearance.
-Yes!
Maya answered with all her might.

Ninar Lord’s Castle.
It was evening, but the maids and servants were at work with their military spirit up. Because evening is when the lord comes.
Evan was sitting in the living room, meeting Cornelia. Cornelia, who was about to leave after finishing her fiancé’s training, blinked at Evan’s call.
“Cornelia.”
“Yes, benefactor.”
“Are you operating an intelligence agency?”
Informant, in other words, spy.
Most royal families and nobles all operate informants. Because in the empire, other people’s secret information is very important. Cornelia easily agreed to Evan’s question. You can tell your benefactor.
“Yes. “We operate it ourselves.”
“If possible, would you watch the magic tower?”
“The magic tower?”
“Okay. If possible, it would be good to know news from the underground of the Magic Tower.”
“Ah……….”
Cornelia furrowed her brow. Because Cornelia is resourceful, she is injecting informants into the Magic Tower. However, she is at the level of a magic tower employee. She said that only those involved could go down to the basement of the Magic Tower, but Cornelia’s source of information was not at that level.
“The informant I have is not that high-ranking, so I can only look into the general atmosphere of the Magic Tower. Is that okay?”
“That is enough. If only I could find out whether the number of people entering and leaving the basement of the Magic Tower has increased.”
“That much is possible, my benefactor!”
When the magic tower wizards try to kill the ‘experiments’, a witch appears. If you know roughly the time, you can prepare.
Sometime ago, there was a device installed on the body of Witch Titis so that Evan would know when the Witch King wakes up, but Evan was planning to prepare one more thing.
‘That’s it.’
Evan wasted an hour. Evan is not yet ready to fight against the five major disasters. It would be good to be thoroughly prepared. To protect my family.
After Cornelia returned.
To confirm that the territory was returning, Evan called Michael, Sias, and the butler.
First, Michael opened his mouth.
“Construction is on schedule. Even if we can’t do it, the road will be paved next week, Nari.”
“Good. “Once the road is cleared, bring in new merchants there.”
There are many merchants who are desperate to enter the Ninar Horse Road Market.
However, because the place was full, merchants from other places could not come in. Since the market has expanded this time, many new merchants will be able to receive it.
Evan also thought about a development plan.
Until now, Ninar Street Market was nothing more than a tourist attraction for a short stay. There is only food and unique items. This is because there was no space for guests to stay.
“It would be nice to have an inn.”
“There certainly wasn’t an inn in Ninar.”
“We investigate merchants who want to run an inn business. “If you don’t have money to build an inn, the lord’s castle will provide a loan.”
200 Billion points as advance payment for selling the dragon arrived in Ninar Lord’s Castle. Evan had a very comfortable financial situation.
“I will do as you command, Sir!”
Michael bowed. Michael serves as the estate’s manager and peace officer in his spare time. He can be trusted and entrusted with it.
Next is Sias.
Evan looked back at Sias. I wanted to ask about the baby dragons’ training status. Sias looked embarrassed.
“Zmazeviti, Anne, and May are following along well… “Helen and Fanny are the problem.”
Helen is the third child and Fanny is the youngest.
Sias said that Helen, who was the most rebellious, never came out of the watchtower.
“Didn’t she try to get Helen out of the watchtower during her first training?”
“Yes, but… After the lord returned to the academy, he seemed to have no motivation and stayed in his dorm. But don’t worry, Sir Evan! “I will guide you well.”
Sias said he would handle it on his own terms.
Evan recalled Cornelia’s words. [Benefactor, how about being a little warmer to the baby dragons?]
Evan shook her head.
Today’s baby dragons need warmth. A feeling that can heal the wounds suffered in the empire so far. Now Evan also knew how important this warmth was.
“I’ll go to training tomorrow too. “It just so happens that tomorrow is the weekend.”
Evan used to go to the professor’s study group on Saturdays, but he doesn’t go these days.
Let’s pay a little more attention to the territory.
※
The next morning.
The eldest daughter, Zmazeviti, came out yawning, and Anne and May, with her hair tied back, came out in comfortable tunics. Morning is a simple jog time.
At the entrance to the watchtower, the third Helen was looking around. By any chance, the silver-haired lord might have come. Helen grumbled at what her lord had said two days ago.
[This is your home now. It would be nice to think more comfortably.]
This is the first time I’ve heard this in my life.
Helen’s heart throbbed. Words she had never heard before.
‘If you trust people, you will be betrayed.’ This is something I experienced countless times in the slums… The silver-haired lord kept coming to mind. Or, can she really be trusted? Enough to worry about this. However, Helen was disappointed because the lord had gone to her academy. So much so that she did not participate in training and was confined to her dorm.
Her sisters did not know why Helen was depressed. She Helen, in her own way, found it difficult to admit the fact that she thought of humans, so she couldn’t say it out loud.
Time passed and it became today.
Suddenly, Helen’s eyes widened as she looked at her surroundings.
Evan, a silver-haired young man who had not yet completely shed his boyish appearance, was walking with Sias.
