Fortunately, Lien had calmed down to some extent when she woke up.

I briefly explained what had happened and the purpose with the idea of explaining why this had happened, and after hearing the entire explanation, she pointed politely at Hiria with both hands.

“So… this person… He was the great wizard of the warrior party 500 years ago. Are you saying that Yucheon was the hero back then?”

“Well, that’s right.”

Lien blinked for a long time.

It was as if he was unable to organize his thoughts due to the great discrepancy between the truth he had just heard and the way we were.

“Uh… uh… ”

She keeps saying the same thing like a broken machine.

Soon, his face becomes serious.

“Seo, could it be that these two are lovers!?”

His expression seemed like there was a big problem, but what he actually said was something unexpected.

“Why does that suddenly appear?”

“It’s very important to me!”

Lien asks with a fire in his eyes.

Then I looked at Hiria.

Hiria nods as if she will take care of it.

“Junior. Are you really curious about that?”

“Yes.”

“We are lovers.”

“Hehe.”

Lien sighed, and I was no different.

I sent a sound so that only she could hear.

[What are you thinking?]

[why? It’s not wrong. You know we disguised ourselves as lovers, right?]

[That’s right, but isn’t the situation a little different?]

Hiria narrowed her eyes at those words.

It’s as if he doesn’t like it.

[I don’t know because I forgot, but you know what? We were lovers.]

[…] ]

I couldn’t even say anything to Hiria’s words.

That’s because I never thought they would be lovers.

‘No way… ‘

A house that Hiria created with magic.

It was as if I had finally realized the meaning of living in a house with someone.

Perhaps it was a house for my past self to live in.

Once I realized that fact, I couldn’t even come up with a defense.

No, I can’t come out.

Because it reminded me of the times of pain she felt.

I kept my mouth shut, and Hyria continued speaking.

“So, junior. How can I find out why it’s such a big deal?”

“That… ”

Lien trailed off and thought for a long time about whether to say this or not, but he couldn’t resist Hiria’s sharp gaze and opened his mouth.

“That… The hero and the saint depend on Yucheon a lot. Maybe it’s not just the level of dependence, but if Yucheon finds out that he has a lover, then… ”

“I feel like I’m going on a rampage. Is this what you mean?”

Lien nodded.

Hyria sighed and glared at me.

I, who was practically a sinner, secretly avoided my gaze.

“This is all because of you. Why don’t you seduce all the very young kids?”

It is unfair.

I never tried to seduce them, I just helped them catch the demon lord.

I also have something to say…

I had no choice but to remain silent as her eyes told me that she would not accept any excuses.

I want to drink alcohol for the first time

“Ugh… Why do I like someone like that? If it’s a girl, everything is good, so I’m poking around here and there. huh? Say something. Any very young girl is good, right?”

“That’s not it.”

“Quiet.”

I told you to speak up yourself.

When I actually opened my mouth, I became quite depressed because I was told to shut up.

‘What can I do?’

This is all my karma.

What on earth happened in the past?

‘I should have hit him more.’

Even if I wasn’t, I would at least know a lot.

If he had hit that bastard, he would have felt a little more relieved, but it was Cheonchu’s regret that he couldn’t do that.

“Tsk. So what are you going to do?”

“What?”

“Are you asking because you really don’t know? They say the kids are really crazy because of you. At least if you commit something, you have to make a choice.”

“But… ”

What should I say if I am suddenly asked to make a choice?

Accept the hearts of those children when you haven’t even recovered their memories yet?

It was no different from playing with the hearts of current warriors and saints.

So you have to think about it carefully.

“Then let’s leave it like this? The kids who have a hard time thinking about only you?”

“You can’t get it, right?”

“Why?’

“That’s right… ”

Because you are there.

I was about to say that, but I kept my mouth shut.

Because I couldn’t even find the right memories and I don’t remember any memories, so I know I’m not qualified to say that.

I couldn’t even say anything.

“Look. I can’t even get the right words out right now.”

Hyria stared at me for a moment.

A lot of worry flashed through her eyes, and she let out a ‘huh’ sound.

“I can look after it. Because the one I like is you. As long as you are happy, anything is fine. But, at least, whether you accept those children’s feelings or not, let’s meet when this is over. And tell them whether it’s rejection or acceptance or whatever. Otherwise, I will hate you for the rest of my life.”

In short, I was told to think about the answer I would give them until this incident was over.

Since I had no choice anyway, I had no choice but to nod.

“Okay.”

Actually, it was planned.

Even if Hiria wasn’t there, it would have been a decision that would have been made anyway, according to Lien’s words.

After this incident, I wanted to come up with a proper answer.

“I… It’s a bit awkward to suddenly say something in this atmosphere. What is this incident?”

“Junior. Junior, you said your teacher was an archmage, right?”

“Yes.”

“I don’t know about you, junior, but unless you originally received the same fate as the hero party that captured the Demon King, you cannot reach the level of an archmage or sword master.”

Like a smart Lien, his face suddenly darkened as if he had sensed what Hiria was going to say.

“That means… ”

“At least in my opinion, it means that he either received help from demons or touched a taboo that shouldn’t be touched. Of course I’m not sure. That’s why I’m going to check it out this time.”

“Master… ”

Lien creaked like a broken machine.

It seems like he can’t accept the current situation, but there’s nothing he can’t understand.

‘Of course.’

Someone as precious as my family could break a taboo or have some kind of deal with a demon.

How many people would immediately accept this fact when they heard it?

At least for a being with a human mind, it is normal not to be able to accept it right away.

Like Lien now.

‘but.’

I understand, but I have no intention of changing my decision.

In the end, it was confirmed that the suspicious circumstances were discovered, and if the circumstances were truly certain, they had to be dealt with.

“… Master can’t do that.”

Lien said.

At first glance, he is speaking normally, but there is no way that I or Hiria could not notice that his words are full of crying.

Hiria carefully hugged Lien, who looked like she was about to burst into tears, as if to comfort her.

“I guess so. All the junior has to do is trust his teacher. The teacher who raised me. We just check. Is that okay then?”

Lien nods without saying a word.

Hiria comforted her by gently stroking her head as if she had done well.

I asked, as I noticed that he seemed to have comforted the children a lot.

“You look familiar.”

“Because I also raised students. By the standards of that time, he was probably about the same age as your junior? I want to see how cute you are again.”

She let out a faint laugh.

It was a smile that immediately showed that he cared for his student.

“But when will we leave?”

“The faster the time, the better. And junior.”

“Yes?”

“The junior just trusts the teacher. No matter what your doubts are, junior, you value and love your teacher, right? So you believe in Master. We’ll take care of it ourselves. Got it?”

“… yes. But… Even if the Master is… If it’s related… What should I do?”

Anxiety illuminates Lien’s eyes.

The question is what to do if the teacher is really involved in it.

The trembling voice was crying.

Hiria answered Lien’s question with a calm smile.

“Do whatever you want, junior. However, the responsibility for that choice must be yours. I respect whatever choice my junior makes, but we also have our own circumstances. So, junior, go and think about it then.”

Ordinary people say that of course it should be eliminated.

Because that’s natural.

Whether you broke a taboo or a demon, the fact that you distorted the world and caused damage remains the same. But Hiraa and I know.

Even if a person has committed a bad act in the world, they cannot do so if it is a precious family member who loves them.

And Hiria expressed his opinion that he would understand.

However, provided that you can definitely take responsibility for your actions.

Of course, these words are included as a warning to some extent.

We both know.

What will Lien choose?

However, we did not necessarily reprimand Lien, we just hoped that Lien’s teacher was not the family we thought.
