While Irene was having an important conversation at Lee Ho-yeon’s house.

Hoyeon Lee, who was standing in front of Ellis’ room, carefully went inside.

‘It’s been a while since I last saw you, but you look prettier.’

A pretty girl is cute even when she’s sulking.

Ho-yeon Lee opened his mouth while looking at Ellis, who was pouting.

“Elise. How are you?”

“Yeah. It’s later than I thought.”

“I’m sorry. I have work to do.”

“I was hanging out with another girl anyway.”

Hoyeon Lee smiled and entered the room.

Ellis giggled as she poured wine into a new glass and placed it on the seat in front of her.

‘Do you mean to sit here?’

The atmosphere is awkward. I don’t know what to say.

Lee Ho-yeon, who somehow felt like she was in a place where she would be scolded, sat down in the seat across from Ellis.

Ellis pushed the glass filled with wine in front of Hoyeon Lee.

“drink.”

“yep.”

sniffling.

As I lifted the wine glass, the sweet scent of fruit tickled my nose.

‘It’s delicious.’

The wine wrapped around my mouth smoothly and went down my throat smoothly.

Of course, I’m not an expert, so I can’t judge what makes the wine outstanding, but it seemed like an expensive wine.

Ellis opened his mouth as soon as Lee Ho-yeon swallowed the wine.

“How does it taste?”

“It’s so delicious. Sweet and soft.”

“Is that the end?”

“hmm….”

What kind of reaction do you want?

Hoyeon Lee checked the status window of Ellis, who was twirling a wine glass in her hand.

★ Heroine status window

[Ellis]

– [Likeability: 95] (+1.1)

– [Liberty: 70]

– [Appetite: 30]

– [Fatigue: 50]

Current status: I prepared my favorite wine. Why is there no response? … Your favorite things haven’t changed in the meantime, right?

‘Favorite wine?’

Hoyeon Lee quickly recalled his memories.

Fortunately, I was able to quickly think of the conversation I had with Ellis about wine.

‘There definitely was such a conversation.’

While choosing a conversation topic that suited Alice’s hobbies, we also talked about wine.

When asked what my favorite wine was at that time, I gave the name of a wine I had picked up somewhere.

Thankfully, he seems to remember that.

Hoyeon Lee smiled as she held up her wine glass in amazement.

“By the way, this is my favorite wine. Did you know? Did I tell you about it?”

“No. It was a coincidence.”

“Aha. I see. I thought you had prepared it on purpose again.”

“… What’s so pretty about you?”

Ellis crossed her legs, turned her head, and drank her wine.

I wrote down the wine he said he liked, just in case, and luckily I wasn’t wrong.

‘Do you even know how annoying it was to get this?’

Since it was her first time seeing Lee Ho-yeon in a week, she also prepared.

I went to all the liquor stores to guide Sebas-chan, and as if that wasn’t enough, I also went around a lot myself.

There should be a reaction like this.

sniffling.

Ho-yeon Lee drank wine and watched Ellis.

Still, seeing as they prepared all this, it looks like they aren’t too upset.

‘Should I say something?’

I glanced down and saw that instead of a snack, there was a cute rabbit-shaped apple on the table.

Do you enjoy wine with fruit?

“Did you shave this?”

“No. My sister.”

“aha….”

If I think about it, there was an apple that Irene peeled the last time I was hospitalized.

I don’t know anything else, but he is an amazing person who is good at peeling apples.

Hoyeon Lee spoke about Irene, who just happened to come out.

“I met Irene at the entrance, and she didn’t look good.”

“… It’s because of you.”

“me?”

“Because of you, my relationship with my sister became strange. We used to be so good together. Sigh….”

Ellis let out a sigh filled with frustration and regret.

Of course, not everything is Lee Ho-yeon’s fault.

Irene’s feelings must have been the same even before she met Lee Ho-yeon.

but… In the end, it is true that Ho-yeon Lee’s presence made work a hassle.

“I’m sorry, Ellis. But I had a situation too. You know that, Ellis.”

“… Does it have anything to do with that curse?”

“There’s nothing, so there’s no reason to do that. What if I’m hated by you….”

No matter how much Lee Ho-yeon is, in this situation, ‘You were good too.’ I have no intention of saying the same thing.

Fortunately, Ellis can understand his situation a little, so he can tell some truth.

Hoyeon Lee bowed his head and apologized to Ellis.

“Then I understand… but no, it’s still annoying.”

“I understand. Hit me until my anger goes away. I’ll take the beating.”

“I won’t hit you. And if you were really sorry, you should have come and apologized.”

“I thought you were very angry because you didn’t contact me.”

“ha….”

Ellis looked at this frustrated man’s face, shook his head, and sighed.

If you don’t know how a woman feels, how can she keep getting tricked?

I just can’t understand it.

Sigh.

Ellis, who was shaking her head, turned her head when she felt a hand on her shoulder.

Before he knew it, Hoyeon Lee had stood up and came up behind him and was massaging his shoulder.

“what?”

“I just wanted to massage your shoulders for the first time in a while. Are you ready for tomorrow’s sparring? Who are you doing it with?”

“Dr. Hyorin Kang.”

“The Korean branch manager is also participating.”

“I’m sure he said he wanted to be with me. He’s a strange person.”

Ho-yeon Lee continued the conversation while massaging Ellis’ shoulders.

Of course, I checked the sparring list, but actual sparring is a perfect topic for conversation.

“Now that I think about it, I heard a lot of reporters are coming tomorrow.”

“This is the first time an event like this has been held at the academy. Since points are awarded for this sparring, we can check the fighting power of the cadets who are putting in their best efforts.”

“It has a lot of meaning.”

“Ugh. Um….”

Ellis slightly turned her head as she felt the touch getting stronger.

Hoyeon Lee was laughing behind her.

“These are not the eyes of the person who just said sorry.”

“I’m working harder because I’m sorry. You’ve often had massages like this in the past, right?”

“… huh.”

The relationship between Ellis and Hoyeon Lee became deeper than when they had their first massage.

After that, there was a lot of body mixing, but there was very little massage after Ellis’ congenital magic disorder was cured.

“Ugh…?”

“I liked it here before, and it’s still the same now.”

“Don’t think that this will forgive my mistakes. Do you understand?”

“Of course. I’m just doing this because I’m sorry, so you don’t have to worry about it. Now that I think about it, what time did Irene say she’ll be back?”

“… She’s not coming. She said she wanted to be alone today.”

“Then you must have plenty of time.”

“Ugh, huh….”

Ellis felt her body tremble under Lee Ho-yeon’s touch.

A feeling I haven’t felt in a long time.

My whole body was responding to Hoyeon Lee’s touch.

‘… ‘It shouldn’t be like this.’

Ellis relaxed her body and slowly closed her eyes.

*

The headquarters of the pandemic.

The space where the Maestro lived was always quiet and dark.

However, now that the fourth apostle had been summoned, a completely different atmosphere had formed compared to a while ago.

“Hoo… Is this a human turned into a monster? It doesn’t look tasty.”

“Off, ugh….”

It was my first time seeing Mine.

It was the strangest looking demon I had ever seen, so it was enough to attract Lucifer’s interest.

But maybe it’s because it’s so ugly? I failed to control my strength.

Ugh. Quad deuk.

Lucifer, who tore off the demon’s head, looked at the dead demon for a moment and then relaxed his hands.

The body fell helplessly to the floor, and Lucifer, who had lost interest, wiped the blood off his hands and looked at the sitting human.

A human kneeling against a statue depicting an animal claimed to be the devil.

Even though he was a real devil, he didn’t look like a devil at all.

Lucifer spoke to the Maestro who was praying.

“Are you still waiting for that revelation?”

“… Yes. A revelation just came down.”

“It’s amazing to receive revelation from a statue of nothing.”

The Maestro looked down at the dead demon and called another demon who was waiting to remove the body.

It has always been like this ever since the Apostle Lucifer appeared. His brainwashing didn’t work on him.

Of course, since he was summoned by the Maestro’s magic, he had some deterrent power, but he couldn’t stop the occasional interest-oriented behavior.

“This is a revelation to cooperate with the Apostle and advance the assimilation of hell.”

“I guess so. I can feel the magic of hell from the pillars in this world. Is the reason I came to the human world the revival of hell?”

“And… he also told me to help the Apostle kill this man.”

“This?”

The Maestro presented the person’s information to Lucifer.

It was a compilation of information about a man.

Hoyeon Lee.

He was an opponent with a different fate than himself, one who had to summon the Demon King and destroy the Earth.

Maestro felt an uneasy feeling as he watched Lucifer checking the data.

… There has never been a revelation like this before.

It wasn’t because of the Demon Lord that he realized that the man had the same fate as him.

My heart starts pounding when I encounter a force that ignores my own abilities.

Even a confident attitude that sets him apart from other humans.

All of this is information that the Maestro found out himself.

Because communication with the devil is one-way, he cannot convey the information he knows.

The Demon King must not know that he met Lee Ho-yeon.

But today, the Demon King himself made a revelation.

‘Help Lucifer kill Lee Ho-yeon.’

The revelation was different and suspicious than before.

He only wanted to be summoned to Earth, not to kill anyone in particular.

Revelation was nothing more than giving direction to important matters.

This revelation was so specific.

The Maestro was feeling distrustful of the revelation that had been coming for a long time.

‘What a pitiful human being.’

Lucifer’s magical eyes shined.

The person in front of me was also not ordinary. Even though his magical eyes were reacting, there was a part that he couldn’t see.

In particular, the brainwashing ability was very unique. It is true that it is extraordinary for human subjects.

But Lucifer can read his emotions perfectly.

He was unsure of his actions. I felt like a moving doll, unable to escape.

I can’t help but think of him as a pitiful human being.

“This is also very… interesting.”

Lucifer took his eyes off the Maestro and frowned as he looked at the video of Hoyeon Lee.

“Did you say killing this human was a revelation from the Demon Lord?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“The devil… the devil.”

Lucifer chuckled.

His father, the devil lord of hell, is still locked up in the devil castle.

He used all his magical power to seal the Demon King’s Castle.

The human world probably doesn’t have the capacity to make revelations.

‘Who on earth is this?’

He sent himself to the human world and revealed that he was the devil.

I was curious about his identity.

“Hmm….”

Lucifer stopped worrying and checked Lee Ho-yeon’s video.

Although he was curious about the demon king who sent him here, he was equally curious about the person named Lee Ho-yeon.

‘It’s the same feeling as then.’

I couldn’t see anything.

When I saw the Demon King’s Castle covered in unidentified magical power.

Lucifer felt his magic eyes becoming powerless for the first time.

However, I feel the same emotions I felt back then towards the insignificant human being.

He thought the reason he came to the human world was to assimilate hell, but his thoughts changed when he saw this human.

A person named Lee Ho-yeon who can’t see anything. It seemed like he had a secret like an unidentified ‘demon king’.

“Okay. Let’s leave right away. Did you say it’s the academy?”

Even in hell there are educational institutions.

If it were an educational institution for humans, it would be even more interesting.

Maybe he can find traces of his brother.
