Emperor of the Night.

The one who reigns like the only god among assassins.

‘If he says so, do it.’

These are the rules of the Iris Guild, and the rules of all assassins.

Such Isaac was right in front of him.

Scarlett swallowed her saliva as she looked at Isaac casually settling down on the sofa.

It doesn’t matter when or how you got in.

Because he can go wherever he wants.

Isaac was completely relaxed on the sofa… but he couldn’t see any gaps.

After a while, Isaac was the first to open his mouth.

“Is Alice okay? I didn’t see her face because she came right away without me hearing her.”

“He’s probably resting at the mansion right now. Shall I contact you?”

Why did you come?

There must be a reason why Isaac, the famous daughter and idiot, came to see her without telling Alice.

“No, no. That’s not it. I came because I had something to ask. You know Lee Ho-yeon, right?”

“… yes.”

Scarlett barely concealed her embarrassment.

This is because an unexpected name came out of Isaac’s mouth.

“I heard you signed a massage contract with Ellis… is that right?”

“you’re right.”

“A 20-year-old man, classmate with Ellis?”

“yes.”

“Hmm….”

Isaac bobbed his head and fell asleep.

“What do you think? Isn’t there some intention other than a massage in the contract?”

‘As expected, I doubt that.’

In fact, if her daughter paid a huge amount of money to get a massage from a 20-year-old man with no massage experience, Scarlett would have a similar reaction.

If you even add Lee Ho-yeon’s face and the rumors coming out around her, it would be really unsettling.

Of course, that’s your job. It’s someone else’s business now.

Scarlett has to defend Lee Ho-yeon.

“Only you know the truth… but the lady I have seen is not the kind of person who would act like that.”

“Oh, yes. That’s right. Ellis is smart, so… that can’t be possible.”

Isaac frowned again and began to worry.

There was no way his beloved daughter would do that.

So what is the reason?

Of course, the only one where thoughts flowed was Lee Ho-yeon.

“Scarlett. Do you think he is better than the high-end masseuses I found?”

“….”

Scarlett couldn’t say anything.

I don’t know much about the Mana masseuses before that, but they were probably the best in the world.

It makes no sense to compare Lee Ho-yeon to those people.

Moreover, I tried to defend Lee Ho-yeon somehow, but the man’s spirit was too scary.

I felt like if I said one word wrong, I would end up in something strange.

“That massage thing. Do you think it’s working?”

“Miss Ellis says it is effective. It is also a huge effect….”

“Really? Were there any dark feelings between the massages? Speak your opinion, not Ellis’s.”

“…I’m not sure about that.”

“… I do not know?”

Isaac, who was talking to Scarlett while looking into space, suddenly turned his head.

And then he made eye contact with a nervous Scarlett.

“You don’t know? Scarlett?”

“… First of all, the massage was said to be effective, and then…”

“Scarlett.”

“… yes.”

‘It doesn’t work either.’

In fact, Scarlett had predicted that this would happen from the moment she was asked to share Scarlett’s opinion, not Alice’s.

I tried to trick him somehow, but he wasn’t a man who would fall for something like this.

The moment Isaac came to see me in person, I couldn’t stop him from meeting Lee Ho-yeon.

“Are you lying to me now?”

“… no.”

Emperor of the Night.

He can tell lies.

You can tell not only lies, but also everything that is said with malicious intent towards you.

It was truly an ability optimized for the information guild.

Scarlett, who knew that, said it as best as she could… There was no way it would work either.

“Tell me straight. Didn’t Lee Ho-yeon have any dark intentions?”

I thought about risking my life and lying, but that would only make me more suspicious.

You shouldn’t say “I don’t know” or “No.”

He may not lie and lie, but he is not a man who would not notice that much.

There was no time to prepare a huge trick.

It would be even more of a problem if the relationship between him and Lee Ho-yeon was discovered for no reason.

In the end, Scarlett spoke as nervously as possible.

As if he didn’t want this situation to happen.

It seemed like he didn’t want one good cadet to be harmed.

“… I can’t say I don’t have dark intentions.”

“Guide me. Right now.”

“… yes.”

Isaac got up and came out of the house.

Only then did Scarlett relax a little and took a deep breath.

Phew-

It’s a bad situation, but it’s not the worst.

What would have happened if he had stayed with Lee Ho-yeon?

If you were caught acting as a double spy between Iris Guild and Lee Ho-yeon…

gulp.

Scarlett swallowed.

This is because I was impressed by Lee Ho-yeon’s intuition.

I thought it was bullshit because I had the senses of a beast or something… It looks like he will be the one to become.

*

Sunday afternoon.

I opened my notebook and slowly thought about my plans for next week.

“I have to play with Lucy Rumi. Oh, by the way, Ayoung is coming back too.”

[Meet Baek Ayoung]

[Playing with Lucy Rumi]

As soon as I thought of things I needed to do, I wrote them down in a notebook.

– sister. What’s this?

-…! Well, you shouldn’t touch that.

– Ugh, that’s for my broadcast…

I could hear a conversation between women over there, but for now, I just looked at the note.

“Magic fair with the professor… This is confirmed. I don’t have any plans with Sister Surin… I think I’ll even get a massage with Ellis at least once.”

[Going to the fair with Professor Lim Sol.]

[Massage with Alice (?)]

[Meet Surin noona (?)]

I think it would be more comfortable if there were really just three bodies.

Why is there so much schedule?

“I also need to meet Rebecca. There’s a lot to learn about the Rune Barrier.”

[Learn the Rune Barrier from Rebecca (?)]

– hey! Give me my chocolate!

– sister! help me!

– …Mr. Liliana. If you just give it to me….

“ha.”

I sighed and stopped thinking.

Because I can’t concentrate.

When I got up and went to the kitchen, the source of the sound, the voice got louder.

“Would you like some chicken?”

“Sister Liliana. Eat something other than chicken!”

“… I think I ate a bit too much chicken.”

“Huh, then what about grilled chicken?”

That crazy succubus has her eyes set on chicken again.

I put my hand on Liliana’s shoulder as I walked into the kitchen.

“Hey. Let the kids eat whatever they want.”

“Tsk. Okay.”

“Liliana. And clean up your room. Your broadcast clothes are rolling around under the bed.”

“Yes, I understand!”

“… hey.”

“Ah, it hurts. Ah…! Okay, I got it!”

“How bad would this be for a child’s emotional education? Huh?”

He continued his sermon a little longer, pinching Liliana’s cheek.

“Huh, huh….”

I thought about leaving Liliana sobbing, holding her cheek.

‘Should I get a really big house?’

There is no space for me to concentrate, and the kitchen, bathroom, and dining table are small.

This is all because the house is small.

There are four people, but we can’t live in the dorm forever.

It’s not like I was attacked recently either… I don’t have any money, but it would be nice to find a nice house like Ellis to live in.

“Now that I’ve remembered, I have to go out.”

If I don’t go now when I’m free, I’ll definitely put it off again.

Because I have a lot of work to do next week.

We’ve been putting it off until now, so we have to move quickly.

“Huh? Where are you going?”

“I think the dormitory is too small. I’m going to go look at the house.”

“I’m coming with you too!”

“No. I’m resting at home.”

Even if Liliana follows, it doesn’t help and only makes noise.

This is certain based on my experience so far.

“Oh, why! Take me too!”

I ignored the whining Liliana and prepared to leave.

Liliana said she would continue to follow, but fortunately, Nam Da-eun and Nam Da-hee calmed down when they told her that they would eat chicken.

“Thank you, Da-eun.”

“No. Welcome back.”

While Liliana played with Dahee, Nam Daeun saw me off at the entrance.

It wasn’t necessary, but he said it was easier for him to do so, so he left it alone.

“I’ll come back.”

“Yes. Please come back.”

“What is that?”

Why are you suddenly using polite language?

“… I just tried it. It felt like a send-off.”

“Tsk.”

Nam Da-eun, whose face was slightly red, grabbed her waist and pulled her towards me.

★Heroine status window

[Nam Da-eun]

-[Likeability: 100](+0.3)

-[Sexual drive: 80]

-[Appetite: 35]

-[Fatigue: 45]

Current status: Isn’t this joke too funny…?

cute.

Just cute.

It’s still awkward, but it was fun to see this change.

“Tsk….”

Nam Da-eun, who came into my arms, made eye contact with me.

“Shall we do it again tonight?”

“…if you like it.”

“Last night was really nice, right?”

“I don’t know….”

Yesterday, I couldn’t do it with Liliana because she was asleep, so I did it alone with Nam Da-eun.

Do you think we can do it together today?

I lightly kissed Nam Da-eun’s forehead, who was embarrassed, and left the dormitory.

‘It’s so luxurious.’

I don’t understand what I did either.

He hugs a woman first and kisses her forehead.

I am living a life that I could not have imagined if I were the original person in the world.

There really is no time left to die.

Of course, that’s what I’m saying, I don’t want to die.

I left the academy and entered a shopping mall to visit a nearby real estate property.

“Hey, the fruit is super cheap today.”

“It’s the season these days. Please buy a basket.”

The sound of people talking around you.

When I hear other people living like this, I feel really alive.

“Real estate… it’s this way.”

Naturally, there were several real estate properties in the shopping center.

Since I wasn’t going to stop by just one place anyway, I decided to go to the closest place first.

I followed the path shown by my smart watch and entered a narrow alley.

And that moment.

The surroundings became quiet.

“… again?”

I further strengthened the rune barrier that had been opened to inhibit awareness.

I tried to get out of the alley in that state, but it seemed like something was blocking me and I couldn’t get out of the alley.

‘Strong.’

If I give my all, will I be able to break through?

not sure.

That’s how strong this attacker was.

In my experience, it’s slightly weaker than Rebecca.

Exciting-

However, being weaker than Rebecca doesn’t mean you should feel at ease.

Exciting-

My heart was racing. It is a harbinger of battle sense.

‘Why are you doing this to me?’

Are other prospects being attacked every day like me? huh?

Phew.

I took a deep breath and wondered whether I should wait for the attack or move forward.

‘I’m going in.’

When Rebecca attacked.

If Rebecca hadn’t exposed herself, I would have continued to be attacked.

And there was also a part of me that believed.

This solid rune barrier.

It seemed like no matter what opponent came, it wouldn’t break through.

If you can’t run away anyway, you should get closer.

I followed the very slight but felt magical energy into the alley.

*

“What, are you coming this way? You figured out my location…? I heard you’re a genius wizard, so it’s not wrong.”

Isaac slightly raised the corners of his mouth as he saw Lee Ho-yeon approaching him.

It was as if he had seen a fun toy.

“…Guild leader. The opponent is a cadet. As expected, you should be considerate…”

“Surely I’m going to kill you? I’m just going to scare you for a moment. Normally, people communicate well when you suppress them.”

“….”

You speak well on a topic that is truly life-threatening.

Scarlett was reflecting on how the situation had come to this.

Because he thought that if he had been a little more careful, it wouldn’t have ended up like this.

‘… is not it?’

But I quickly changed my mind when I saw Isaac smiling.

Even if he hadn’t said anything, the result would have been the same.

Because that crazy guild leader can’t just sit still.

I guess I was craving Sebas-chan more for no reason and ended up finding him.

‘ha.’

But the good news is that it is not night.

It would have been really dangerous at night, but there was no sign of the moon rising yet.

As Scarlett watched Isaac slowly increasing his magic power, she thought that she would have to throw herself to prevent the worst-case scenario.
