Chapter 7

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The wooden door shook violently.

“Get me out of here right now! Mother! Call my mother!”

Shannon’s hoarse voice echoed down the corridor.

Valhail locked his gaze on the guard stationed at the door.

“There isn’t anything wrong, Sir.”

A high-pitched voice returned.

While he was in charge of guarding the county’s outskirts, he built an acquaintance with the other guards.

As a Toono and former Martial Arts Competition winner.

The heresy that walked away from the Holy Knights on his own two feet.

Instead of his name, Valhail, the others attached the phrase “difficult to deal with” and have been referring to him as such.

Numerous knights and guards approached him for sparring or simply pointed their swords at him.

But the end result was always the same.

“Good work.”

The guard saluted Valhail’s light reply.

The aura Valhail possessed was to overwhelm his opponents without surpassing them.

The presence of Valhail posed a threat to the military hierarchy.

It was fortunate that he came at Camilla before the problem arose.

It’s not easy to follow the devilish woman’s words, but there were some good things.

‘Did she asleep?’

The room that Camilla had given him within the count’s castle was located opposite Selina’s bedroom.

Though all he could see was whether the light was on or off, Valhail was satisfied enough.

Before, all he could do was counted the bedrooms, which looked as small as a dot, to make sure that Selina had returned safely.

Valhail sat on the sofa, sweeping his forehead as if brushing away his complicated thoughts.

A sudden thought struck him.

“…… like trash.”

When he saw Shannon in solitary confinement, he immediately thought of Camilla.

It was obvious how Camilla would have treated his stepdaughter, Selina, just by looking at what she did to her own biological daughter.

Even tearing her limbs to death wouldn’t be enough for him.

But, as Selina had mentioned, he shouldn’t do it.

Selina.

Selina Crawford.

On the tip of his tongue, Valhail repeated Selina’s name.

The woman who had now become his everything.

Valhail felt the imprint engraved on his arm as if it were a habit.

When the uneven wound on his fingertips was touched, his burning chest began to calm down gradually.

“Efreet.”

Valhail rolled a small stone into the fireplace.

Thud.

Crackle, crackle, crackle…

Then, as if he was expecting it, a fire broke out.

Despite the fierce fire that seemed to devour the bedroom, Valhail did not blink an eye.

This pompous spirit always liked to make a loud appearance.

The blazing fire quickly formed the shape of the beast’s face.

[Greetings to the Great Spirit’s contractor]

He closed his eyes as if bowing, then opened them again and said.

[Did you call me?]

The presence in the fire resembled a beast, with large horns soaring on both sides.

It is exactly like the image of the Empire’s people, who are afraid of the spirits and call them demons.

“Efreet.”

[Yes.]

“Can you do me a favor?”

[…….]

Efreet, the highest fire spirit.

He was unfamiliar with his contractor, who had vanished for years before reappearing unexpectedly.

[Fa…vor?]

For some reason, his tone softened and he spoke unfamiliar words he had never used before.

“That’s right. I just need you to protect a certain woman.”

[Woman…?]

Efreet, who was rarely embarrassed, blinked.

[If it’s a woman, do you mean a person with a woman’s genitalia?]

“…… That’s right.”

Valhail, on the other hand, thought that this strange creature, who identified himself as the Spirit of Fire’s king, had a very strange mishap.

[Not murder, torture, or burning…… Did you ask that I protect someone?]

“Yes.”

For a while, Efreet and Valhail exchanged incomprehensible stares.

“You said I was your contractor.”

[That is true……but…]

He was the first person in a century to summon Efreet and even sign a contract with him.

Furthermore, he was an honest taxpayer who provided Efreet with countless deaths in exchange.

As a result of this, Efreet, the high spirit, was able to gain enough strength to seek the king’s vacancy.

Efreet eventually came to find his contractor first after not calling him for years.

[Contractor……]

Efreet apparently thought something was wrong.
