Duke, Please Repent! chapter 282

51. Infiltration with the Duke (13)

After having a late dinner, I went to see Ed Na, who had finished eating first and rested in the room.

Even though the children were still awake, she was alone in her room.

“What are you doing?”

As soon as I knocked, Edna asked a question from beyond without even opening the door.

I’m here to tell you something.

“Today, I have a lot to think about, so I want to rest ”

The door is still firmly closed.

There was a slight cry in his voice.

I know it’s hard, but I have to do it now.

Then please wait a moment.

Not long after, the door opened, revealing Edna with red eyes.

Even when I was playing with the children during the day, my life came back. In just a few hours, my face was pale.

Come on in.

The room allotted to me was on the wide side, and Edna’s room was narrower than that.

After she suggested me a small auxiliary chair, she sat down on the bed.

What’s going on?

Well, maybe today’s work is evil…

Wait.

Edna cut me off], of magical power

I spun a long thread and created ice-cream magic.

Can I keep using soundproofing magic? Even though there is a soundproofing magic scroll, you don’t use serpenes and you just say quietly and quietly?

Since Serpens couldn’t have forgotten the existence of the soundproof scroll, there must be some reason.

“Isn’t that because of the baby?”

Edna replied as she looked at the baby glued to my chest.

Do you know if you’re talking about yourself?

-!, and roared. It gives me so much strength that I doubt whether I’m seeing a big deal.

Seeing that my butt wasn’t hot, I guess I just didn’t like it when I was sitting still.

As soon as he got up from his seat and shook his head lightly, the baby’s face immediately became more comfortable.

The sound that was close to howling was ‘Oh, uh-, uh .’ It turned into a small whimper.

Maybe it’s a reaction that hasn’t been properly managed, or it’s a great show of presence.

Not a moment is silent

I continued to carry such a baby, and the sound of your baby’s cry felt like a bgm.

Isn’t it something like that, if the baby is quiet for too long, I’d be suspicious? I’m a wizard, so there’s nothing strange about using soundproof magic, Min-, I’m not Shion-san. It’s strange to use that expensive soundproofing magic scroll when I’m alone.

Since I’m rich, wouldn’t it be okay to just use a few scrolls?

No matter how expensive it is, no one abuses the scroll for trivial things.

A certain duke of the Holy Empire abused it, but there seems to be no such person in the Kingdom of Prune.

Is it a difference in GDP?

“I , so what are you going to say ?”

Ouch, look at my mind.

I looked at the baby and then stopped blinking.

I mean, Zion came today after being beaten.

maybe.

You call the demon worshipers so friendly.

It’s annoying to call them demon worshipers. When I call them demons, I feel like, ‘Oh my, that’s sublime!’

Ah yes.

Edna cursed me with a look on her face and answered with a tremble.

It seems I’m the only one who feels that way.

‘Am I the only one in this world who calls demons evil!’

For some reason, I feel like a comedian who pushes the buzzwords that no one follows.

“Still it seems insignificant.”

I guess I made a sad tea without knowing it, and Edna responded reluctantly.

That made me even more miserable.

“So, is it true that this evil Sungi’s scheme is real?”

Edna asked the question in an adult-like tone, as if she had been crippled because she did not properly call the name she gave to the doll.

it feels so weird It’s a strange feeling that can’t be put into words.

Did Serpence, who was treated like a child, feel this way?

I’m not 100% sure, but it’s pretty much true. Serpens says, I think the chief of staff informed the person at the top of Rossio that Mr. Edna was going to be staying here for a while.

That Austin bastard…! He asked me to knock down the top, what the hell was he thinking .

Ah! That’s it, from Euges.

I got a call, but it seems that black magic has been detected inside the upper part. A commemorative badge of the Luxmea Church No! It’s confirmed with the badge of honor, so this information is certain.

Edna’s expression changed strangely after hearing my explanation.

Excuse me, Mr. Sion. Do you know that the words you are talking about are playing separately? Sion is…, no. Not Mr. Sion, but… Ah, I’m confused.

“I understand everything, just tell me.”

you]. Anyway, the story of Shion’s injury

Hardy and Austin are communicating with the top of Rossio, doesn’t it mean that some kind of magical power has been sensed from the top of Rossio? .

Edna complained of a headache from information overload.

Maybe I skipped the explanation too much.

When the director sent a letter to Jeonseo-gu, they replied that the plan was to be moved forward.

Shion-san, do you mean to say that the plan was to hurt Shion?

To be precise, Edna-san ran out of control.

The plan is to make them attack the top of Rossio.

In other words, he lured me to the main altar at the top of Rossio, and the evil… Sungyi who was hiding there counterattacked…

This time, whether the information given was insufficient, Edna gave the wrong answer.

No! No, the purpose is to make Edna look like a magician by leaving traces of black magic . said Serpens.

I hope… to summon the demons as sacrificial children and put them on me.

Are you planning on?!

Edna screamed in surprise.

I was also surprised by her words. Oh, too, in surprise, he muttered, ‘Wow-, uh-!’

I fixed the baby, hugged him, patted his back to calm him down, and calmed my startled heart.

No, no. Doing that would make Mr. Edna have a grudge against the evil forces, right?

Yes?

Yes?

Seeing Edna reacting as if she couldn’t understand what I was saying, I had no choice but to ask her the same question as I didn’t understand her.

“Just using children as sacrifices to summon demons, I can’t help but hold a grudge against them, right?”

So, why do you demons do such a thing?

After saying that, shouldn’t it be okay if you ask me that way?

Oh right.

The devil’s plan is in demon possession

I should have told you that I changed to Scout first.

Somehow, he understood the words strangely, but the underlying prerequisites were wrong.

The ultimate goal of these bastards is to recruit Mr. Edna.

“Didn’t you say that their purpose is to destroy the spirit of the anima by summoning demons as sacrificial children and turning me into a vessel for demons?”

I guess the plan has just changed, huh?

“The original plan is always changing.

is that right? If a better idea comes up during a meeting and is adopted, it can change!

She quietly kept her mouth shut, but it seems that her double bathing from the tower is heard in three-dimensional surround.

Such a terrifying expression.

“Now , whoops are you kidding me?”

She picked and picked her words, followed the standard language rules, and asked me with honest and gentle words.

Perhaps I was conscious of the baby I was holding. Even if you can’t understand the words, negative and aggressive swearing is not good for your baby’s emotions.

So what are you telling me to do? Seeing children suffer, are you just going to be patient? You know how much I care for the children here, Mr. Xion.

I don’t mean that…

I’m sorry. I know this isn’t Shion-san’s fault… But, by the way… I don’t know. I’m so confused right now.

Saying so, Edna crouched down, grabbing her head.

It seems that the manager had shaken Edna’s mind properly.

She tried to look as good as possible, but she was almost at her limit.

I have only believed and followed Mr. Sion’s words, but if you suddenly change your words like this…. The credibility will only decrease. I want clear and reliable information.

Looking down at her in pain, I made up my mind.

If Mr. Edna becomes the devil’s vessel, Mr. Anima will be angry. But that doesn’t mean Mr. Edna is freed from the devil.

Mr. Edna, do you want Ms. Anima to be frustrated and crumble as she is?

Now… what are you talking about?

It can’t be, huh? And Animi knows that too. She’s the one who knows Edna best.

“…Sion-san?”

I ignored all of Edna’s objections.

It will be easier for her to understand if you just keep talking on your own, rather than giving each one an answer and then the conversation gets messed up.

If Mr. Edna becomes the devil’s vessel, Mr. Anima will kill the demon in Mr. Edna’s disguise so that Mr. Edna will not be mistreated by the devil any longer. And he will become stronger for revenge.

Wait

Eating the power of the Holy Swords party

That’s their purpose, but that’s a wake-up call to increase power… . Are you so stupid?”

Shion-san, what you said earlier…

If Corruption had tampered with this plan, it might have had a different outcome.

‘Did you plan to corrupt Edna like you are now?

The bastards of the evil faction used to subtly evade the Corruption Fence on the subject they were scouted for.

Because of that, the Corruption fence is the Book of the Demon King.

There were several schemes that excluded him even though he was serving as a servant, and Ednaga’s becoming a devil’s vessel is one of them.

‘It was fortunate from the point of view of the Continents.’

It was only the Demon King who saved the Corruption Fence, but considering that the Corruption Fence slashed the back of the Demon King’s head… .

That demon king of that demon. very dumb dumb

“Sion-san?!”

Ah! I’m sorry. I was thinking about something else for a while…

[Master of the Holy Sword] I must have been absorbed in the recollection of the contents for too long.

It was only after hearing Edna’s call that I was able to break free from my thoughts.

“Anyway, the problem is that even the Demon Lord knows that fact. So, the plan must have been changed. So that Edna-san chooses the evil faction at her own will.”

Even if I ask a question, I don’t answer, so I guess I changed my mind to just quietly waiting for my words to end.

Edna still looks confused

by. But with deep, still eyes. looked at me and listened to me

The plan to drive Edna into a warlock is probably part of that. If you’re a criminal enough just to terrorize the Rossio top, if you even use the name of a warlock. Even the children of the nursery school will be treated as heresy. The situation is there. If it goes all the way, Edna-san has only one path to choose from, right?”

叶…

Edna sighed a little. She realized another thing.

If you find a ghost of black magic at the top of Rossio, you’ll realize that everything is a devil’s trick.

It is true that it is difficult for the powerless to live in this world.

That’s as long as people exist. As long as people feel various needs, it is an unchangeable reality.

Akseung just shook the glass full of water.

What is overflowing is the reality she has personally experienced.

And if Mr. Edna voluntarily takes the side of the evil spirits, then Anima-san will also join the evil forces.

yes… I guess.

She nodded her head with a gloomy expression.

I understand what you are saying, Mr. Shion. But I want to ask you one thing…

I know what Edna is wondering, because I said it like I knew the future?

That’s right, it sounds like you’re talking about the past.

As for the answer to that question, I’ve already told Mr. Edna.

“Yes ? When?”

As if she couldn’t remember, Edna had a puzzled expression on her face.

When I talked about the messenger of the gods, he snorted, saying it was vain. The shape I erased from my brain as it is

“Do you remember well?”

“Um well, I don’t know.”

“Do you remember when I said I was the head of the Illuminati?”

.. Yes?!

Talking about it in advance definitely helped.

Edna jumped up and made eye contact with me standing there.

“Ah , somehow. It sounds suspicious.”

It’s not the prime minister, it’s the chief.

“Anyway now everything makes sense.”

As if the strength in her legs had loosened, Edna slumped back on the bed and murmured.

Let me formally greet you again. Zion, the head of the secret society Illuminati.

It’s called Rivelon.

If you hold the baby in your arms and wiggle your ass to set the mood, you don’t seem serious at all.

“Are you going to pretend you don’t know that?”

I want to do that too, but I’ve been so concerned about you since before…

No, is that my fault? If you stand still, the child keeps whining!

There is a limit to shaking only with your arms.

The baby was so heavy that I couldn’t help it.
