Chapter Index

    “I also see you as a competitor.”

    “Why am I suddenly…”

    I feel troubled.

    Seira slowly turned her head and avoided eye contact. Even though I was 500 years old, the feeling of being treated like my younger brother by a girl who was hundreds of years younger than me… honestly, it wasn’t that bad! Seira did not see Siron as a romantic partner, but as a colleague who could be trusted.

    So, this competitive spirit was a little uncomfortable.

    “I have never seen a kid as a romantic object. So… can you please leave me out?”

    “Why?”

    “The theory in me is… yes, little one.”

    Seira spread her chest and spoke confidently.

    “Maybe it’s because I’ve watched him grow up since he was young, but I don’t even care about romantic feelings. If you feel affectionate feelings, it is not a lover’s love, but a mother’s love. You mean something that needs to be protected? That’s it.”

    “But, there is also a saying that they raise them and eat them.”

    “…What?”

    ‘What is he talking about?’

    Seira opened her eyes wide, and Siriel narrowed her eyes. There was a strong feeling of suspicion.

    “My mother told me that the opposite sex that you can rely on from a young age is easy to fall in love with. When my mother and father first met, there was a significant age difference between them, and she said that from the moment she realized she was being watched, she felt like her heart was going to explode…”

    “What are you saying all of a sudden? Are you saying I don’t feel romantic feelings?”

    “Anyway, your brother may have romantic feelings for you.”

    “No way.”

    Seira averted her gaze with a shocked expression. At the same time, memories from five years ago until now came back to her as quickly as a flash.

    ‘It definitely started with a fight…’

    Group assaults, beatings, and spankings.

    Pushing into the trap.

    Tasting instead to see if it is poisonous, a useful means of transportation.

    When climbing the cliff of Cheonin Cliff, I had to pick him up and lift him up, and if I thought there was an obstacle in my way, I had to fire a barrage of gunfire to erase it.

    No matter how much I think about it, I was treated as a useful colleague rather than a romantic partner. No, when I think about it again, I was treated like an all-purpose tool rather than a useful companion.

    “Don’t be mistaken.”

    Thinking about it makes me angry. So Seira glared at Siriel’s wide-open eyes.

    “The kid doesn’t see me as a romantic partner.”

    “Why? How can you be sure?”

    “How old is the age difference in the first place?”

    Seira pressed her aching temple.

    I really didn’t want to bring up my age, but with him rushing at me like a mad dog like this, even Seira was in no position to make a decision.

    “No matter how beautiful I am, I am an elf that is at least hundreds of years old. Among elves, she’s still young… Anyway, even in elf society, if you marry a human, you’re treated as some kind of pervert? They say he’s a pedophile and all. The year an elf is recognized as an adult is about 100 years old, and humans live less than that before dying.”

    “So?”

    “That’s not true! Are humans considered crazy if they date during the reproductive period?”

    I don’t know about it now, but it was like that 500 years ago. A time when Seira was still living in the forest.

    There was a time when an elf man who had an affair with a human woman was kicked out of the forest with a sling.

    “So. Take me out. What if you see me as competition in the first place? Even if we fight each other, we put our hats on.”

    “…That’s true too.”

    Siriel smoothed her chin and organized her thoughts. Seeing the human girl like that, Seira thought she had to drive a wedge to prevent her from making any more mistakes.

    “And! I guess you’re still young and don’t know, but women who are obsessed are not popular!”

    “…What is that?”

    Is it because the wedge worked well? Siriel asked blankly.

    “Think carefully. A man who is attracted to women like a kid has a lot of options, right? So, a woman who passionately sends heavy love. A woman like that disturbs order by showing hostility to those around her? Then what do you think will happen? You’ll feel the pressure right away and try to drop it, right?”

    “……Really?”

    “Yes!”

    Seira jumped up and shouted.

    “Think about it carefully. Does the kid have a normal personality? You know that his personality is not funny.”

    “…I know.”

    “Right? As long as he decided to kill the demon god. If you think it’s a hindrance, just…!!”

    Sigh-

    Seira pretended to slit her own throat.

    thud!

    Siriel had the expression of a fighter who had lost his country.

    ‘I guess that’s enough now, right?’

    Seira, who was confident that she had gained some distance in the heated fight, decided to leave the heavy place.

    However, Seira could not escape the training room.

    Thump-

    Seira’s ankle was caught.

    Seira slowly looked back. There was Siriel, her blue eyes filled with tears.

    “Why are you doing this again?”

    “Teacher.”

    Siriel called out to Seira in a watery voice. However, instead of using the title she had used before, she expressed her desperation and expressed the greatest respect she could.

    “Then, then I. What should I do?”

    “Do I understand?”

    Seira tried to shake off Siriel’s hand by tapping her foot, but Siriel is Hugo’s daughter. Seira’s ankle didn’t move as if it was stuck on a rock.

    “Hey. Don’t you let go of this?”

    “If you don’t teach me. I won’t let you go.”

    “Ha…”

    Seira sighed deeply.

    Even though it was hooked wrongly, it seemed like it was stuck wrongly.

    ‘The kid is like that, and so is this guy. ‘Why is everyone crazy?’

    The two people were able to ignore the Demon God’s curse, so Seira felt affectionate toward them. But sometimes it starts to drop to an unprecedented level.

    A poet with a fiery personality. Siriel gives blind love to Siron. Even though it was tied together, it was tied wrong for a long time.

    “Let go of this for now.”

    “Are you going to tell me?”

    “…Okay.”

    As Seira reluctantly nodded, Siriel relaxed her grip. And she sat down quietly, shaking the sand off her body.

    “First of all, I don’t have any experience, so I’m not sure.”

    “Tell me.”

    “Like a kid… Next to a man who is working hard to achieve his goal, there is bound to be a woman who always supports him from behind. therefore. There is some intersection with your goal.”

    “Becoming a woman who is helpful to your brother?”

    “Yes! But that’s where you reduce your obsession. At least you shouldn’t show it to the point of making a muddy mess.”

    “…I think I can feel it.”

    Siriel touched her lips.

    Now that I think about it, Hugo and Eldrina… the relationship between father and mother felt similar.

    “Right? It’s simple and easy. In the end, you just have to work hard, right? Because you have talent, you have clear goals… and you’re pretty. You’re lucky. How many people fail without meeting the three conditions?”

    “…Okay.”

    Siriel nodded with sharp eyes.

    *

    After the commotion was over. The two climbed the stairs to get out of the ‘basement’.

    Ta-bak- Ta-bak-

    After climbing the spiral staircase, the two were able to get out of the basement and into the living room of the separate building.

    …It was easy to explain why Siriel’s mana training room was in the basement of a separate building. Seira was reluctant to leave the outbuilding, and Siriel needed a reason to stop by.

    As their understanding coincided, it became a very ‘natural’ routine for Siriel to come and go to the annex every day.

    “Did the training go well?”

    “…Of course.”

    When Lucia saw the two leaving and greeted them, Siriel smiled slightly and responded.

    At that time when I was fluttering my chest with a new attitude,

    -thud.

    “…”

    A harsh sound was heard from the front door.

    Turp-plop-

    As they heard rough footsteps approaching this place, everyone looked at the door that was about to open.

    Squeak-

    “It went well.”

    The person who opened the door and appeared was Siron Prien. He was covered in blood all over his body and was carrying someone on his shoulders.

    “Oppa.”

    Siriel approached Siron faster than anyone else. When he suddenly appeared covered in blood, I felt anxious and anxious.

    “What on earth is that? No, rather, the person on his shoulder…”

    “Victor.”

    Siron put down Viktor, who looked like he had fainted and was limp, and brushed his forehead and hair. Not only did he come covered in blood, but he also had to be careful not to bump into people, so he felt very tired and irritated.

    “Encia. I’m going to wash up and come back. Take care of this guy.”

    “Yes. Master.”

    “Wait a minute.”

    Siriel stopped Encia who was trying to drag Viktor away.

    “Can I take care of it?”

    “?”

    Encia tilted her head at Siriel’s sudden behavior.

    “What should I do? Master?”

    “…Do whatever you want.”

    Siron left those words and went up to the second floor. I wanted to ask why Siriel suddenly appeared, but I didn’t have time to do so now.

    ‘I have to go to the imperial palace quickly.’

    Austin took possession of King Wu of Zhou’s tool.

    In front of that fact, it didn’t matter who took care of the man’s care.

    Siriel, who took Viktor over from Encia, dragged her to the locker room located on the first floor.

    Siriel decided to help Siron, starting with small things.

    However, he decided to help Siron, not to embrace his competitors.

    click-

    Siriel locked the locker room door. And then he laid Victor down on the bathroom floor.

    “What are you doing?”

    Siriel glared at Viktor and spat out. Hearing the cold tone, Victor stopped acting and slowly opened his eyes.

    When Viktor, who was scratching his head, laughed brightly, Siriel gave off a cool chill.

    Something like that just happened, and no matter how long we’ve known each other, I just couldn’t stand the presumptuous act of deceiving my brother.

    This is Victor!
