Kwajik-Kwadeuk-

Pow!

“K-keaaa…

Contrary to Chiron’s ambitious remarks, the situation was overwhelming from the beginning.

In fact, just looking at Liliana’s momentum, I expected that she would be no match for her, but as expected, there was no twist.

Puck- flop-

Unlike Liliana, who moved her magic by waving her hands as if bored, Chiron put his magic into his great sword and used all his might to cut down the skulls around Liliana.

“Ha, ha… Killer Queen! I can do it somehow….”

“They say horse people talk too much.”

Clap-clap-clack-

When Liliana waved her finger, a skull as large as Chiron had broken rose in an instant. At the same time, auxiliary magic was cast and the skull’s eyes began to glow.

It’s probably one of the strengthening spells.

Wedge- Pak-

“Ugh…!”

Chiron’s face turned pale as he watched the skeletons he had just knocked down rise again, and at the same time, a dark red flash appeared on his side.

The ominous light pierced Chiron’s body at a speed that even I could not understand.

Chiron bent his legs and stumbled from the impact.

The blood splattered from his side was dripping onto the floor, and Liliana watched the situation expressionlessly.

“….”

A fight so overwhelming that it makes me feel bad watching it.

Chiron’s level was not low.

The opponent, Liliana, was just too strong.

Chiron’s will to rush forward without giving up even in absolutely unfavorable situations was amazing… The wounds on my body continued to increase.

Puck- Puck-

How long did the fight last?

Chiron’s body began to creak.

You’ve probably reached your limit.

But those eyes, as if prepared for death, were still burning.

He’s probably thinking of giving up his life here.

Whether it’s revenge or competition to become the Demon King’s successor, there will be a reason to risk your life.

Of course, contrary to his will, Chiron, who was completely tattered, seemed to have difficulty even walking.

Chiron, who was so weak that he felt like he would collapse if Liliana moved even a single finger, raised his greatsword with his last strength.

The intention to burn the final flame seemed to penetrate deep into my heart.

It’s probably because I’m peeking into Chiron’s memories.

His emotions are vividly conveyed.

At that time, Liliana, who was generating magic, suddenly lowered her hand.

“Oh, this isn’t fun. I’ll just not kill you.”

“… what?”

“In a way, you are my younger brother. I will look after you at least once. I feel good today. I also received the Demon Lord’s approval!”

Liliana jumped off the chair and showed her back to Chiron, kicking a bone.

It was ridiculous to show your back to the enemy during a fight, but Liliana didn’t seem to mind.

They are not looking at Chiron as an opponent at all.

“Hey, hey. I can still fight…!”

Chiron grabbed Liliana as if embarrassed by the battle that ended in vain.

I risked my life, but they don’t even think of me as an enemy.

As the Devil King’s successor, he couldn’t just sit still after receiving such humiliation.

The humiliation Chiron felt was so severe that my eyebrows furrowed.

But Chiron’s pride was completely shattered by Liliana’s next words.

“Really? If I stay still now, I can survive?”

“Killer Queen….”

“You’re throwing away the life you saved so vainly? My little brother isn’t that stupid. If he attacks you again this time, I’m really going to kill you?!”

“….”

“I’ll look after you when I’m in a good mood, so just stay still. Oh, the Demon King position is mine, so should I give it up?”

Jump and jump.

After speaking, Liliana smiled slightly and walked back on her way.

Chiron’s trembling legs and the hand holding the sword.

He was about to rush in at any moment and cut off that horn.

However, in the end Chiron did not move.

Then Liliana, who was walking slowly, looked back slightly.

“You’re telling me to stay still. It’s really funny. Don’t go somewhere and say that you’re the devil’s child. … It’s embarrassing.”

Rattling- rattling-

Chiron lowered his head as he listened to Liliana’s voice mocking him until the end.

“Ah, ah… ugh.”

After Liliana’s figure was completely out of sight, Chiron knelt down and struck the floor with his sword.

One man, whose pride was completely shattered, hit his head on the floor and sobbed.

‘Is this why you became a mercenary?’

He said he became a mercenary because he felt a wall, but it seems he ran away because of Liliana, who is the same heir to the Demon Lord.

He was afraid that Liliana would come after him and kill him, so he pretended to be a F-class mercenary and pretended to be weak, which is why he gave up everything when he saw Liliana in the human world.

Because it was so overwhelming.

Actually, I’m glad I didn’t give up everything and become a wreck.

“Ha, ha… Why. Why to a succubus…”

I could vividly feel Chiron’s misery as he sobbed.

Did this mean that you should not feel disgusting in the place you live?

If I were an ordinary person without special privileges, I might have gone crazy.

Because it was quite a shock.

“… Tsk. I feel dirty.”

Did Liliana see the same thing?

Fortunately, I didn’t experience any severe backlash due to the perk called [Clear Mental Ability], but I was already thinking about many things.

The relationship between Liliana and the Demon Lord.

And the attitude I should take… .

“ah.”

But pitch-black darkness enveloped me, as if cutting off my thoughts.

*

“…Whew.”

When I opened my eyes, I was in the living room of my dorm.

A feeling of haziness and drowsiness, as if I had just woken up.

And then, a moaning sound from next to me.

“Ah, ah… ahhh….”

“Liliana-sama! Liliana-sama…!”

Next to me, Liliana was rolling around on the floor, tearing out her hair.

And Scarlett, who opened her eyes wide in surprise, was confused and didn’t know what to do, but then looked at me and smiled.

“Hoenn! Liliana’s condition is strange. As soon as she opened her eyes, she started acting strangely….”

“…Liliana. Did you see it too?”

“I, I… No. It’s not me. It’s clear….”

“….”

As soon as I saw Liliana, memories from earlier came to mind, and I frowned without realizing it.

The creepy emotions and horrifying fear that Chiron felt.

Anxiety and fear felt when encountering a predator of a different class.

It felt like the emotions of that time were vividly emerging.

Phew.

I took a deep breath and shook off the uneasy feeling.

‘I don’t know why such a past exists, but what is certain is that Liliana in the past was completely different from now.’

What is clear is that Liliana was the Demon King’s successor, and judging from what she said, she must have had a high succession rank.

And the Demon Lord of Hell is, in the end, the enemy I must defeat.

For my girls.

And for me to remain in this world.

After targeting the heroines, you must stop the devil’s attack.

That was my bet with God who sent me to this world.

So what happens to the relationship with Liliana here?

If Liliana regains her past memories, will she take my side?

Or should I take the side of my father, the Demon King?

No, maybe…

Could it be that he was pretending to have lost his memories from the beginning?

“ha….”

I felt so depressed that I even started thinking about useless things.

okay.

I know that there is a high possibility that it is not.

There’s no need to do that in the first place.

The gods of this world are higher than the Demon King.

Even the devil cannot understand God’s intentions and do such a thing.

And between me and Liliana, there is a [Hell Bastard Summoning Contract].

Therefore, you must always use magical power that is weaker than mine and follow my orders.

‘However, this is not without exception.’

There was a time when Liliana, who couldn’t control her sexual desires, overpowered me.

As it is an unfair contract from hell, there will be other restrictions that are not written down.

“Hoenn. Now Liliana….”

“Ah, I… I don’t know… I don’t even know who the Demon King is…”

Liliana continued to fidget, showing signs of anxiety.

“…Liliana. Don’t worry.”

I gently took Liliana’s hand.

And then he gently hugged her.

Many thoughts overlapped.

I felt anxious, but I couldn’t leave Liliana, who seemed emotionally unstable, alone.

*

He sat on the bed, put his hand on his forehead, and muttered a curse.

“Fuck really.”

It’s a situation where cursing comes out even if you stay still.

Liliana stumbled into the room. Normally I would have followed along, but now I needed time to think.

So I also came into my room.

“Liliana….”

Clearly, the succubus in hell was Liliana.

Looking at Liliana’s condition, even if you ask her directly, she will say she doesn’t know anything.

“… How long are we going to not know anything?”

I’ve already watched it several times.

To say that my reaction was an overreaction means that I have already exceeded the acceptable frequency.

It’s the same with Liliana’s memories, the bastard from hell, and the unidentified past.

There were more than just one or two unsettling factors.

I asked Liliana several times, but I couldn’t find any helpful information.

“Maybe he was too strong and was sealed? That’s why he was summoned in the fucking contract… No, then why was Chiron summoned here? Surely Chiron was also written in the fucking contract.”

I went back through my memories one by one and thought about the possibilities, but no matter how much I thought about it on my own, it was useless.

There would have to be some information to make an inference based on it, but there was very little information.

Knock knock.

“Hoyeon.”

“Ah… come in.”

Scarlett’s voice was heard along with the knocking sound.

Come to think of it, Scarlett was there too.

Scarlett… It was a good atmosphere, but I couldn’t raise that tension now.

I looked at Scarlett who entered the room and spoke to her.

“Scarlett. I’m sorry. I’m only making you uncomfortable for no reason.”

“It’s okay. Being pushed out is normal.”

“….”

Scarlett trudged over and sat next to my bed.

After a moment of awkward silence, Scarlett spoke first.

“What you saw with Liliana… I have no right to know, but you both have become very strange.”

“… sorry.”

“If it were the usual Hoenn, there would be no way he would have left Liliana alone in such a state. Although he is a bad man, he also has a good side.”

“….”

I want to do that too.

Scarlett.

Strange thoughts filled my head.

One of the heroines is the daughter of the final boss.

This is really too much.

no wonder.

I felt like I finally knew why Liliana’s favorability rating didn’t reach 100.

It probably means there’s still a secret I don’t know about.

What if Liliana, whose memories have returned, stands on the Demon Lord’s side at the last moment… .

“ha.”

It really looks like a dog.

Why do I have to think like this?

“Hoyeon. You have to think about what is more important. It’s good to worry, but first you have to worry about what’s in front of you.”

“… That’s right. I know you’re right. But if I leave what’s right in front of me, someday my precious things may be harmed.”

Now there are more responsibilities to take on.

Now you can’t move without thinking.

You must consider all options and choose a clear path.

“ha….”

Scarlett scratched her head in frustration, then got up from the bed and looked down at me.

“…Scarlett?”

“Yes. I know everything. You have so many precious things. But….”

Scarlett closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and looked straight into my eyes.

“You can’t do that now.”

“… uh?”

I blinked at Scarlett’s sudden name.

And before I had time to react, Scarlett continued.

“Liliana, who came all the way from hell because you irresponsibly summoned her. Liliana, who consoled her loneliness by broadcasting from her room while you were sleeping and hanging out with girls at the Academy… Why isn’t she a top priority?”

“Scarlett….”

I looked blankly at Scarlett’s face.

“If you’ve been acting selfishly up to now, you have to take responsibility somehow. If you think Liliana is a threat… you have to solve it somehow. That’s the right way.”

“….”

“The you I knew, Lee Ho-yeon… at least that’s how you acted. The spirit and confidence that you could solve any problem. And the ability to really solve it. And, haha.”

As soon as Scarlett finished speaking, she left the room.

He just said what he had to say and left, as if he didn’t need to hear my answer.

And those few words stuck with me like a thorn.

“Whew.”

I sighed and lay down on the bed.

for a moment.

Let’s just cool our heads for a moment.

To Liliana… I have to go find it.
