episode_0094

I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy.

But my feelings when I met Mia at a place I could never have imagined were more along the lines of ‘What is going on?’

If you think about it… yes. Although she didn’t say it directly, Mia knew Baek Yu-go well. The Samjeong Knights are said to be this country’s ultimate weapon, so it’s possible that they interact frequently with the Director of the Inspectorate.

I had a momentary shiver thinking that there was no need to consider Mia as an enemy, but fortunately, it seemed like there was no need to worry about that.

“What the. What did you do to him?”

Because the extremely cold voice was directed at Baek Yu-go. And it didn’t stop there.

Baek Yu-go’s voluminous body floated into the air and crashed into the wall. It felt like a car had been thrown instead of a person, and there was a vibration that shook the entire building.

“What did you do?”

Once again, bang!

Once again, the loud noise and vibration that seemed as if the walls were barely holding up came.

The decorations hanging on the walls fell to the ground, and those that weren’t there fell and shattered on tables and shelves.

“What’s going on!!!”

A shout was heard outside the door. And then there was the sound of footsteps rushing towards this direction. Mia clicked her tongue and raised her hand, but Baek Yu-go’s reaction was even faster.

“[Don’t come in], you idiots! I will personally tear anyone who opens the door to death!”

The noise outside the door stopped along with the words.

Baek Yu-go stood up with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. The sturdy bed screamed and the mattress caved in, but he paid no attention and lowered his head.

“What brings you to a place like this, Pam… Mia.”

green onion…?

If you look at the fact that it was changed, is it a name that shouldn’t be heard? It’s possible. Mia-ssi also said before that she would die just by knowing the original name of Samjeong Knight.

However, Baek Yu-go’s seemingly polite attitude meant nothing to Mia.

“I asked you twice already?! What did you do to him!!!”

This time, instead of throwing it back, he lifted it up. The log-like neck beneath Baek Yu-go’s bulging jawline was distorted enough to be seen at a glance.

He looks like Senior Saya, slightly younger and without glasses, but unlike him, he is a person with terrifyingly intense emotions.

Um, Mia. It’s good that you’re worried and angry that something might have happened to me, but… strangling me with your telekinesis and demanding answers is just too… good. Do more.

“Nothing…happened… .”

Mia looked back at me as she heard Baek Yu-go speak with difficulty. Her gaze asked if I was serious.

If you say something like, “No! I’ve been treated badly!” here, you might think Mia would take care of Baek Yu-go, but that’s probably impossible.

When I nodded, a slight look of relief crossed Mia’s eyes. However, when she looked back at Baek Yu-go, her expression was cold, as if she had never been like that before.

The strength that had been holding Baek Yu-go loosened as his body fell down. It was also unpleasant to see him standing on the bed with light movements that did not match his size.

“It may be true that he didn’t do anything…but why is he here in the first place?”

“It’s because of my hobby, but how would Mia know that… Kekekeke!”

“Who was asking the question?”

The cut was so deep that it seemed like the cervical vertebrae were broken. However, Baek Yu-go stood there, groaning, while Mia’s expression turned slightly sour.

There was a black bruise on her neck.

“Please stop. Even if I die, if Mia dies, this country will be in danger.”

“What do you know?”

Mia-ssi said it coldly, but it was something I couldn’t just ignore. I don’t know exactly, but somehow… it seems like the structure is such that if you hurt Baek Yu-go, it will also affect Mia-ssi.

“I, I… .”

Since I had acted out towards Baek Yu-go, I couldn’t completely change my attitude all of a sudden. So I hesitated to speak to her, and Mia’s eyes became even sharper.

But instead of trying to beat Baek Yu-go any more, he came down to me and stood with his back turned to me as if protecting me.

“Your words don’t mean anything anyway. I don’t know what it is, but don’t come near her anymore. Don’t even try to get to know her. If you try to make even the slightest contact, I’ll finish you off.”

“… Okay, let’s do that. But what’s really going on?”

For a moment, I felt as if something had been blocked around me. I’m not sure, but judging from the fact that I couldn’t even hear the sound coming out of my mouth, it was probably a zone of [silence].

However, I didn’t block the view. Mia probably didn’t think too deeply about it, and Baek Yu-go, who thought of me as a design doll, didn’t feel it was worth being wary of, so we continued talking.

So I just waited with a look of not understanding the situation. The ability to read the lips is always useful. It also reduces the chances of missing important words due to loud noises or loud noises.

Mia said.

“The movements of the illusionary demons were strange, so Cheonjeong (天晶) was examining the sky and found strange traces. It seems that there is someone who is trying to artificially bring the illusionary demons to this city.”

“… Is that true?”

“You’re the one who should be preventing this kind of problem, right? Why are you setting up a fake and playing around in a place like this?”

Baek Yu-go lowered his head and began to think deeply about something. Mia snorted and turned away.

“Go and work. While you’re at it, tell the other two that I’ll be home a little late. Make up an excuse as you wish.”

“that….”

“Your only value is your ability to make excuses. If you can’t even do that, then you’re worthless. Do you want to die here and now?”

「… .」

Miss Mia was really, really sincere. Baek Yu-go was embarrassed by her reckless attitude and it was really funny.

However, I couldn’t laugh at all and had to desperately maintain doublethink.

One is because I shouldn’t be able to hear the conversation between the two of you right now, and the other is… I had an idea why Mia appeared here.

Excuse me, Samjeong Knights.

I think it’s probably my fault.

… Well, the actual magic attack didn’t happen, and Mia saved me, so let’s say it was a good plan in the end… .

▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷▷

The place Mia took me to was an alley a little bit away from the hotel. Judging from the fact that there was no one passing by, she must have checked the destination in advance.

Mia said, trying to calm down the slightly dizzy feeling caused by the sudden change in the surrounding space.

“Tell me the truth. You really didn’t have any problems, right?”

“Yes. It’s okay. … Are you more worried than I thought?”

“… If a kid who has been acting so annoying keeps lying around like a doll, then of course I’m worried… … … … .”

“It’d probably be less tsundere if you just continued… Ugh!”

Something hit the back of my head so hard that I made a pitiful sound. I thought I had hit hard, but the pain suddenly disappeared, leaving me feeling sad.

… Senior Saya, you’re probably concentrating while worrying that something might happen to me.

It is true that one of the problems I was worried about was resolved sooner than expected, even though it took a completely unexpected form.

“Excuse me, Mom. I don’t know for sure, but you have some free time, right? Go and meet Senior Saya.”

“Who is your mother!”

“Oh, should I start from there… . You may have forgotten since it’s been a while since we last met, but I… .”

“That’s not what I meant… Wait, what is that.”

The moment he raised his hand in advance to prepare for the possible pain in the back of his head, Mia’s gaze was fixed on his left ring finger.

As expected, you are very sensitive to these kinds of things… .

“Did you originally wear something like this…?”

“Uh, um, well… the order is a bit weird, but I’ll tell you now.”

I adjusted my posture, slightly distancing myself from Ms. Mia, and then bowed deeply and shouted at lightning speed.

“I received your daughter! Please give me your approval after the fact, Mom!”

“Don’t make me laugh!”

Mia, enraged, strangled him with both her telekinesis and her physical body. If Yuna hadn’t trained her a little bit, she would have suffered a great tragedy by getting horny in front of Mia.

Although it was difficult, I managed to stop myself after telling him that I was sharing my pain with Senior Saya.

“… What the hell happened. I didn’t hear a single word about it… .”

“Have you been in contact with Senior Saya?”

“… Contact… I guess you could call it, sending text messages every day like a diary.”

“Oh, that’s it.”

This is what Senior Saya was diligently writing on her phone before going to bed. I glanced at it and it seemed like a diary, so I didn’t look at it any more, but it was similar, but a little different.

“Whenever I check, a flood of messages comes pouring in… Honestly, it’s hard work… .”

“I see you didn’t reply…I guess.”

“… All I hear is, “I was happy doing something with you every day, I was happy with what you said,” so what should I reply to you? ”

“… .”

Even if you’re not Mia, that would be pretty difficult to deal with.

“You said all sorts of things, but you never said anything like that… .”

“Well… If you hear that, it sounds like you’ll come cutting off my finger.”

“… You know?”

“It is a symbol of a promise that is truly more precious to me than anything else, but it is true that there are times when Senior Saya is in danger because of it. If only I could destroy it… I think about destroying it.”

In reality, it seems to be due to the power granted to the apostle by the goddess of love, so it is unlikely to disappear even if the finger is cut off.

When I held out my hand to Mia, she looked back and forth between the ring and my face with a complicated expression… and then shook her head.

“If you get hurt, Saya will get hurt too. Later… Later, when Saya starts to feel affection for you, then that’s when it happens.”

A voice that seemed to have given up somewhere.

Anyway, I think it’s okay to be confident that I’ve been acknowledged, even if it’s passive… right…?

“Tell me why you were with that piglet. What’s the situation? Isn’t it dangerous for Saya?”

It would be no use lying to her, who knew Baek Yu-go’s unusual womanizing. I explained the situation as concisely as possible.

The fact that he is the Master of Baekyugodo. He is going to step forward and organize the other Masters in this city.

Currently, our family consists of six people, including Senior Saya, and we are deceiving the outside world into thinking that the Chairman is the master.

And today I got a call… .

“Are you crazy? You were willing to sacrifice your body knowing what kind of guy that guy is?!”

“No. Of course, I was planning to lose some weight before that… .”

“I couldn’t take it off! Saya thinks of you so much, but what if you willingly go down the path of death! If you get hurt, Saya will get hurt!!!”

We’re in trouble.

Miss Mia’s eyes are unusual.

“How can you protect Sayah when you can’t even protect yourself? No, it’s not a matter of protecting yourself, it’s like attempting suicide… Are you in your right mind?”

It was such an obvious story that I had no words to answer. It was different from other cases where I could barely convince others.

Because Mia doesn’t trust me. She hasn’t experienced anything worth trusting.

Should I try appealing like last time?

Let’s say that I know a way to summon the desired illusion, and that I know a secret of the world that will surprise Mia and make her move. Let’s show off that if you use it, you can do something amazing.

I erased the thought that had come to my mind.

It’s not a lie, but that’s not the answer in this situation.

It’s natural to be worried. It’s natural to not believe. No matter how much you believe, it’s normal not to want to send it.

On the contrary, I was the one who was pressuring others.

Because they had built trust over time and desperately wanted to believe that there would be no problems, people suppressed their anxiety and accepted the unreasonableness.

I finally understood why the chairman was so heated even though he already knew what was going on. Even if he had known and prepared for it, he must have still been worried.

So then the answer that I can give, the answer that I can give is… .

“… Sorry. I was short-sighted.”

I bowed my head and apologized. Not only for Mia, but also for everyone who suppressed their anxiety and sent me away.

“… Do you really think so?”

“Yes. I think I was drunk because I knew a little more than other people, because I was lucky enough to have a few things work out. I had this ridiculous delusion that I could handle it even if things didn’t work out.”

“… .”

I’ve confirmed several times that that doesn’t work.

My soul and that of Senior Saya are connected. If I am in danger, Senior Saya is in danger too.

Even if my estimate of the success rate is correct, the probability of all three countermeasures with a 90% success rate failing is 0.1%. How stupid am I to have tried to do something like that when there was a 0.1% chance that Senior Saya would be in danger?

It can’t be 99.9%. It can’t be 100%.

“… Smile. You might get scolded, but what’s so special about that… .”

Mia said that with a trembling expression. I tried to brighten up my face as she said, but it didn’t seem to produce the desired result.

Mia’s voice grew more and more irritated. Only the direction of the irritability was… not at me.

“How long are you going to keep doing this? After all, that pig is the bad guy. Why don’t you just go and cut off his head? Then you won’t have to worry about this kind of thing, right?”

It was a truly wonderful story. I wanted to nod and shout for it, but… I shook my head.

“It won’t be that easy. Besides… it seemed like hurting that guy would hurt your mother too… .”

“… What is your real identity?”

“I just saw that and didn’t know. When that guy hit his neck with his telekinesis, it looks like your mother’s neck got a bruise too.”

Mia sighed, rubbing her neck.

“… If I had known you would notice, I would have turned back time… .”

“There must be something. If there is a powerful awakener like your mother, the higher-ups will never be able to feel at ease without doing something to restrain her.”

“… Why did such a quick-witted guy throw himself into a pigsty… .”

There is nothing to say in response to that. As I continued to send her gaze demanding the truth in order to hide my embarrassment, Mia spat out.

“As long as that bastard is a ‘patriot’, I can’t hurt him carelessly. I’ll get hurt the same way. … But if that bastard lays a finger on you, Sayana… then I’ll kill him no matter what. ”

“… … … … .”

His attitude was so firm that I couldn’t confirm whether he knew that it meant he would die too. So… .

“Not only Senior Saya, but I am also included in the protection target. I am happy, Mother!”

“That’s because I said that if you get hurt, Saya will get hurt too! Don’t cling to me! Don’t smile at me because it’s annoying! And come to think of it, I forgot, but don’t call me mom!”

Access was actually blocked by an invisible barrier.

Hmm, is ‘patriot’ just a general term for high-ranking officials? Or is there actually some kind of magic to gauge loyalty?

It doesn’t matter either way. What matters now is… .

“I’ll take care of that guy. So don’t worry about it, and don’t bother with it.”

I don’t know what Mia’s abilities are and what her limits are.

However, Baek Yu-go was a boss that had to be defeated through repeated attempts and errors, in other words, if you didn’t know how to defeat him, you would definitely get a game over at first.

Even if Mia could overcome that, you can’t trade pigs and Mia for equal value.

“… You were so gloomy just a moment ago, but now you’re so cocky… . Oh, wait… .”

Mia’s expression changed slightly as she spoke to herself.

The lips moved without making a sound, but the specific content could not be read. It seemed that the lips moved unconsciously while talking through telepathy or something.

And after a while.

“… I have to go. You damn pig… . You couldn’t even open your mouth properly… .”

Probably not the one that turns.

But that’s not what’s urgent right now.

“Excuse me, can you please take a quick look at Senior Saya?”

Mia bit her lip and shook her head. “Call me! ”I said, but “No! I really don’t have time! ”I said urgently.

Oh, then there’s nothing I can do.

“I don’t know where you are, what you’re doing, or how you’re doing it, but you have time to check your texts, right? Then, promise me that you’ll contact Saya-senpai next time you have some free time! If you don’t, I’ll go back right now and tell you what your mother said, in a loving way! [In this voice]!”

3 seconds to here.

The last words were spoken in Mia’s voice.

Miss Mia clenched her teeth, but she probably didn’t have time to get angry at me. She nodded with a murderous look in her eyes, and then, as if she had been forcibly summoned, she disappeared into thin air.

I was left alone in an alley where there was no one.

I sighed and thought to myself, I was really lucky. It turned out completely differently than I had planned, but that was really fortunate.

Because I almost believed that my trick was really working.

The words “Jininsa Daecheonmyeong” can only be spoken with public opinion.

A person like me must constantly doubt whether I have truly done everything I could, right up until the very end, until the very end.

I gathered my resolve again and contacted Senior Saya and the Chairman. When I told them that I had escaped safely, they were both very relieved.

Senior Saya was nervous because of the two incidents of violence, and the chairman was secretly peeking into the suite room, which seemed to be somewhat chaotic.

Anyway, to sum it up, thanks to Mia, we were able to escape the crisis. At least, the fact that Baek Yu-go won’t dare touch us for a while is a bigger advantage than expected.

It was also realizing that I had let my guard down, and the fact that Sayaka-senpai would have a chance to talk to my mother… My mother’s grace is endless… .

I was able to finish the first event of Part 2 while being amazed by my mother’s grace.

After Mia took Seha away, he remained motionless for a minute. If anyone had seen him, they would have thought he had frozen to stone or was dead.

No matter how much weight he gained, the size of his head was limited, and the size of his brain was fixed. But at this moment, he was pouring all of the energy he had to move his obese body into his brain.

A feeling of discomfort. Where on earth did I feel that sense of discomfort? To figure it out, I reminisce about everything from the moment the design doll named Sehara opened the door and entered──

“Is that girl’s mother?”

“Yes.”

The voice was coming from inside the mirror.

Baek Yu-go not only disliked mirrors, he hated them. In his office, he did not keep any smooth objects that could reflect light, apart from mirrors.

But I couldn’t help but respond to this voice.

“That’s the headache, isn’t it?”

“Yes. But it can’t be easily removed. It’s one of the last bastions protecting this country.”

“… Okay. I’ll sort it out.”

“Okay, thanks.”

The voice in the mirror that suddenly popped out and proposed a joint battle revealed itself as the [Apostle of the Goddess of Discord].

There are two things he asked for while actively helping himself.

The annihilation of a girl named Yusaya.

And the bondage and confinement of the girl who is strong.

【The Apostle of the Goddess of Discord】 did not explain the reason.

However, since she showed abilities that matched the grand introduction of the goddess, I decided to cooperate for now. I wonder why she doesn’t step forward herself when she has such abilities, but I will find out gradually.

To be obsessed is to be precious.

If you know what is valuable to your opponent, you can subdue them. You can use them.

Baek Yu-go imagined.

The always arrogant knight of the sect, the being in the mirror called the apostle of the goddess.

He imagined them being held down, their ribs breaking under the pressure of their excessive weight, and their begging and crying as he raped them. Their brightest talents would be absorbed into him, swelling up their bloated bodies even more.

A war called Master Wars. Weapons that allow you to break away from the existing order have been given to you. The fools believe that everything is free now and are desperate to grab everything they can get their hands on.

But what awaits at the end is the extinction of freedom through complete winner-take-all.

That’s what happens in the end.

Everyone is his prey.
