Deltan made no excuses.

This is because, in his opinion, it was quite a fatal mistake.

After all, it was a game that had never been easy, so it was something I should reflect on since I was so proud of having cleared the main part.

However, there was a fortunate thing.

Agnes was infected by him and he only realized it now, but that was the end.

All mistakes made so far were mistakes that Deltans were ‘still able to fix.’

“So wait. The devil’s temptation disappears if you kill the devil at its source. Until then, Kaltara will be your guard.”

Deltan said this while facing Agnes.

Agnes asked.

She wasn’t smiling like usual.

“And you?”

“I’m going to catch the devil. I roughly calculated how I got infected, and it seems to have been from the day I went to the underground waterway. If you calculate the time from when you were infected and the incubation period until it exploded, that’s correct.”

“Isn’t it dangerous? You said you were tempted too.”

“Strictly speaking, I am a carrier. Carriers who do not show symptoms. No matter how much the seed of temptation is inside me, it can’t harm me. Because I don’t leave a gap in my heart.”

No, not really.

Even if Deltan thought about it himself, the fact that he had shown weakness to her temptations in recent years was clearly due to the influence of temptation.

However, since it was not dramatic, it was assumed to have no effect.

“And from now on, even the slightest possibility of temptation will disappear. Because once I recognize temptation, I won’t create any more gaps in my heart.”

This was true.

Deltan was not a sloppy person to the point where he was swayed by emotions that he already knew the cause of.

“So stay still. I will finish everything by next week at the latest.”

Deltan said that and tried to get up.

At that moment, Agnes grabbed Deltan’s collar.

“Deltain. I’m anxious.”

“It is the influence of temptation.”

“I know, but even knowing that makes me anxious.”

“Because I have no tolerance for temptation.”

Deltan sighed.

This is because this appearance was not like Agnes at all.

‘… Should I reassure you a little?’

It was clear why the temptation of the emotion amplification world was dangerous.

This is because even the smallest spark of emotion burns to the limit and makes people do things they would not do rationally.

Would it be possible to explain it by saying that one example of such behavior is suicide?

Deltan sat down again.

“Just 20 minutes. Just give me that much time. Complain.”

Agnes closed her mouth and continued her thoughts.

I realized that the reason I was doing this was because of the devil’s temptation.

I knew that if the Deltans defeated the demon, everything would be okay.

However, that wasn’t the problem.

“This is a temptation that amplifies emotions. It’s not about creating feelings that don’t exist.”

“Why is that?”

“I thought that I may have been anxious for a long time.”

“Everyone feels anxious.”

“Not me.”

Agnes still had an expressionless expression.

“I’m not anxious about anything. Even my death.”

Agnes was like that.

She was a woman who never once feared death in her life.

There is one reason: fear is ultimately an emotion that comes from a longing for life, and that longing for life comes from emotions.

Agnes had never had such strong feelings before meeting Deltan.

In addition, even the feelings that arose now were not in the form of longing for one’s own life.

Agnes was still indifferent to her own life.

That’s why I was afraid of this anxiety.

Deltan laughed at Agnes’ words.

“Of course, there is no need to be anxious. Because I will save you unconditionally.”

Startle-.

Agnes’ body trembled.

She was thinking of Kaltara’s words again.

-The boss is persistent. And with that persistence, you always win.

thud.

thud.

My heart was beating irregularly.

“Hey, your expression is getting weird again. Is it okay?”

Deltan frowned and stretched out his hand.

It touched the nape of Agnes’ neck.

The face got closer.

Agnes looked at the Deltan’s golden eyes, which were engraved in a more distinct form.

Then a strange phenomenon occurred.

thud.

thud.

The irregular heartbeat changed.

No, the heartbeat slowed down.

Agnes felt her heart tighten.

I felt my breath getting hotter.

This was a reaction Agnes had never experienced before in her life.

The accident left me dazed.

Agnes was embarrassed by this and held on to her composure.

However, things didn’t go as planned.

“… hey. Hey.”

Deltan’s voice overlapped the beat.

And it was engraved.

“Agnes.”

The moment my name came out of his mouth, Agnes’ eyes trembled.

“… Ah.”

“What is it?”

“I think I understand.”

Only then did Agnes realize.

“What am I anxious about?”

It was only then that I realized something I hadn’t thought about since I had been living at a distance from my emotions.

A smile appeared on Agnes’ lips.

It was a smile with expressionless eyes that made the person looking at it feel strange.

“That’s right. That was it.”

“What is it, why are you muttering to yourself?”

The Deltan’s frown deepened.

Agnes lay down and stretched out her arm to rest on his cheek.

‘It’s an emotion. ‘Emotions were scary.’

Agnes admitted.

This was carelessness born of ignorance.

To paraphrase Delta people’s language, it would have been called a ‘fatal mistake’ as it failed to take into account that emotions never flow in only one direction.

“Everything involves risk.”

I engrave my name in the other person’s heart.

This definitely meant that the other person’s name might be engraved on me in the process.

If he tried to devour Deltan’s life, he might end up being swallowed up by him.

I might have thought of wanting to live with him for just one more day.

A giggle escaped Agnes’ lips.

“Ah, I’m not anxious anymore.”

She raised her upper body.

Deltan was still looking at her with concern.

He sensed that Agnes was seriously vulnerable to temptation.

Of course, Agnes didn’t realize that.

No, I didn’t mind.

‘I’m just glad.’

If his emotions hadn’t been amplified like this, he wouldn’t have known he was anxious.

Also, he probably didn’t even know the reason for his anxiety.

As Kaltara said, trying to capture a Deltan could have resulted in him being put on a leash.

It was an opportunity.

Agnes thought so.

“Deltain.”

“Why.”

“Please sleep with me. Right now.”

Deltan’s breath stopped.

His eyes were getting so big that they couldn’t get any bigger.

Agnes paid no heed to his expression and leaned forward.

I barely got up from the bed and sat on his thighs.

“I want to sleep with you. right now. From now on.”

Agnes’ dry hand stroked Deltan’s cheek.

It fell down to the nape of my neck.

The light in the cherry blossom-colored eyes was dark, but still intense.

“I think that will work.”

Agnes thought.

If this anxiety is due to one’s own mind, which may become irritated as time passes, or if it may be due to the regret of life that will arise as a result.

All that was needed was to capture the Deltans before such feelings occurred.

All I had to do was go a little more radically.

So all I had to do was finish everything before my slow mind started working.

“Huh? Make me yours.”

Agnes’ head tilted forward.

It was a movement as if they were trying to kiss their lips.

As the movement continued, Agnes’ thinking became increasingly distant from reason.

chin-.

Deltan covered Agnes’ mouth with his hand.

His face was a little red, but his eyes had an intelligent glow.

“This is very tasty.”

Agnes’ head tilted.

She whimpered and pushed her face in, as if she was trying to kiss him with her meager strength.

Deltan said to her.

“I told you. You’ve been tempted by the devil.”

After saying that, Agnes tilted her head back.

It was after that that my hand fell off.

“Calm down. You are unable to make rational decisions right now.”

“It doesn’t matter. I told you. Emotion amplification does not mean creating emotions that do not exist. I wanted to keep sleeping with you.”

“If you’re that crazy about sexual desire, you should at least use your hands. Why are you fucking with me?”

“It can’t be done without you. I need you, not lust. I want you to get turned on by touching me.”

Deltan’s eyes twitched.

He said, trying to shake off the rising heat.

“… You’re so emotional right now.”

“That’s right. I’m speaking my honest feelings now.”

Deltan narrowed his eyebrows.

He was uncomfortable with this situation.

So he spoke to her as if provoking her.

“Then get down on your knees and pray. Please love me.”

“I don’t like it. You must confess. But if I kneel down, will you sleep?”

Agnes spoke without thinking.

Amplification of emotions.

It was starting to reach its peak.

Deltan let out a sigh.

Then, he came to his senses and placed his hand on her waist.

Immediately after, he lightly lifted her up and laid her on the bed.

Just-.

I fed chestnuts to my forehead.

“Let’s talk about this again later. After catching the devil.”

“The answer will not change.”

“I assure you, it changes. Among the cubs who were tempted by temptation, there was none who became fine and stopped wearing blankets.”

“What will you do if it doesn’t change? Then will you sleep on it?”

“If you kneel down and pray, I’ll think about it.”

“Do you like kneeling? Well, you have a strong desire to dominate. I’ll remember that. I will put both my hands together and beg you to sleep. But I won’t confess.”

“What on earth do I have to think about to come up with such crazy ideas?”

Deltan looked down at Agnes as if he was fed up.

Agnes looked at the Deltan blankly and then asked.

“Are you mad at me?”

“I guess I didn’t know, but I was always angry.”

“Because I asked you to be your subordinate? Or do you force it?”

“You’re thinking about that now? Oh, I used to be such a shameless person.”

“Sorry. It’s not like that in the first place. I did it because the devil tempted me.”

“Apologise to the devil. You were a cheesy person from the beginning. Don’t pass your mistakes on to others.”

“I always kept the line. I don’t say anything in an argumentative tone unless it hurts your pride.”

“That is the biggest rudeness. You damn bitch.”

Deltan felt a pulling in the back of his neck.

So he snapped his fingers.

Just-!

Agnes fell asleep.

Deltan washed his face dry.

And then I went to visit.

There was Kaltara who followed.

She gave a thumbs up.

“Of course you’re the boss! If I were the boss, I would have fucked him on the spot!”

“Choose your word again. And I apologize for comparing you to me. We can’t be on the same page. Know the topic.”

“Hmm! The boss is definitely rational! Hurry up and go catch the devil! I’ll take charge of this place!”

“Stay calm.”

Deltan left those words and walked down the hallway.

he thought.

‘Fucking devil.’

Because of that guy’s temptation, I almost fell for Agnes.
