Chapter 346 – Thrilling (?) Suprising Reunion #2

When I reached the top of the next mountain overlooking the castle, I took a deep breath.
The cool air of the dark, misty Pandemonium… I love it.
Adele, who was following me next to me, coughed.

“Khehe…! Coke!”

“It’s okay?”

Sylvia takes care of Adele with a worried expression.
Adele grumbled.

“The air is really bad. Hurry up, let’s clean up quickly and return to Earth.”

“Clean?”

“I mean the traitor. Her sister is so deaf to her, how is she going to live in this harsh world?”

“Uh, yeah…? You’ll take good care of it…”

“Of course I will.”

Sylvia rolled her eyes and looked at me.
Can’t stop laughing
As I pulled Adele into my arms, I grinned at the mighty demons that began to rise around me.

-Gooooo!!

The monsters inside and outside the castle, feeling my unique demonic energy, are roaring.
She was a warm welcome.
Pretty guys… Is the demon king about to burst into tears?

“Mmmm…!”

Adele covered her ears in her tantrum.
She glanced at Sylvia, her face flushed slightly, though she didn’t say a word.
Are you inflated with anticipation?
I said, grabbing Sylvia’s shoulder with one hand and pulling her.

“There are many monsters to introduce. I’ll do my appreciation of the demon realm later and move on.”

“Ah yes…! Now, wait a minute… I’m nervous…”

After taking several deep breaths, Sylvia clenched her fists.

“That’s Okay.”

“Don’t worry too much. You and Adele share my magic. All monsters will bow their heads to you.”

“Yes, Master…”

Holding the two hands with both hands and interlacing them, I flew towards the castle while floating in the air as if I were swimming in the air.
After landing at the main gate and walking with majestic steps, the two A-class monsters guarding the entrance start fighting.

-Meet the Demon King!

Although it walked on two legs, it was a monster that could not be related to humans at all, and anyone could say that it was disgusting.
In my eyes, he was no different from a loyal servant… But Adele and Sylvia felt different.

“Um… What are those gross things…? How could he look like that?”

“Adele…! Words like that shouldn’t come out of her mouth…! They are our subordinates…!”

“It is so hideous! How could it be… Oh my God…!”

If the demons knew the language of the Earth, their morale would have been greatly reduced.
I put on a calm expression and asked the monsters.

“Where is the queen?”

– I am currently treating injured comrades.

“What about YuRia?”

– You are with the queen.

“I get it. It’s a lot of work.”

-No, Maou-nim.

An official language of Erandel that Adele and Sylvia do not know at all.
Thanks to that, I was able to have a smooth conversation without being noticed by the two… To be precise, Adele.
I gave encouragement to the monsters by patting them on the shoulders, and seeing Adele almost being pulled by Sylvia, I burst into laughter.

“You don’t want to go in like that?”

“I-I’m sure there are monsters like that all over the place…!”

“There are also cute monsters.”

“It must be cute in Jihyeok’s eyes! They all look equally ugly in my eyes!”

If you see a race of fox beasts like Meryl, your thoughts will change, right?
Even the taciturn Yuria saw Meryl and was disarmed in one shot.
Adele, who likes cute foxes, would be crazy about Meryl when she saw her.

Adele’s reaction made the gatekeeper monsters puzzled.
I don’t know why you’re doing that yeah, that’s it
Let me meet Meryl later.
The most important thing right now was to introduce Sehwa and Yuria.

“I will postpone the summoning of the monsters until later. Go inside right now, and clear the hallway and audience room.”

– John’s name.

I sent a gatekeeper and gestured to Adele.

“Adele. Come this way.”

Adele let out a sigh and, as if stung by my somewhat subdued mood, stepped forward to her feet.

“I can’t help it… Ahh… Really… Hold her hand instead. Can you do something like this?”

“Of course.”

**

Three thrones in a huge throne room.
Seeing them, Adele said to Sylvia with her bright expression.

“Still, the demons are paying attention. I mean, they prepared chairs like this just because we were coming. Can I revise my rating a bit?”

Unlike Adele in her misunderstanding, Sylvia noticed that the throne was not for them.
Scratching her cheeks as if embarrassed, she placed Adele on her throne.
Then he gently patted Adele’s knee.

“Adele, do you remember what the doctor said?”

“You mean to show me your grown-up side?”

“Yes. You must remember that advice. Got it?”

Adele, no matter how ignorant she may be, must have felt strange for her to go this far.
She looked at me and Sylvia alternately with her suspicious eyes and asked.

“You are really strange today. Is there something I don’t know about?”

She originally intended to keep it a secret and let Sae-hwa and Yuria meet.
However, due to Adele’s personality, meeting the two without knowing anything would cause a major accident.
Sehwa and YuRia will be coming soon anyway… It would be nice to say something in advance.
Thinking that, I grabbed Adele’s hand tightly.

“Adele.”

“Yes?”

“I have something to say to Adele.”

“Come on, tell me. I mean, I’m curious.”

“Before Adele became my household, the preceding two became household first.”

“Ehh…?”

Adele’s eyes are twice as big.
She tapped her own ear and winked her own big eyes.

“What did you just say? Two more followers…? Did I hear you right?”

“Yes, that’s right. Sehwa and Yuria are the two of them.”

“Yes, yes…?”

Adele’s mouth fell open.
They are looking at me with incredible eyes.
There was a slight sense of betrayal mixed in the eyes that were so bright that my face was reflected.
Her heart aches

“I was going to tell you in advance, but I postponed it because I thought Adele’s reaction would be fierce.”

Adele, dumbfounded, stuttered his words.

“Uh, uh, uh uh, how dare you… Fool me…? Sehwa and YuRia unnie are already in your household…?”

Judging by her condition, her mind seems to have gone white.

“You’re right.”

“Since when…?”

“Even before Adele arrived on Earth, they were my people. The reason Sehwa and Yuria disappeared in the middle was because of Adele. I was sent to the Pandemonium in fear of being purified by divine power. To suppress the rebellion.”

“Ahhhhh…”

Adele rubs her forehead as if her head is spinning.
After a while, she stared at me with her venom-filled eyes.

“No matter how great my holy power was… Lies before I became a follower, lies after becoming a follower…! This is really… Disappointing…!”

Technically I wasn’t lying, I was just hiding it…
Still, sin is sin. You are right, and my fault is big.

“Sorry.”

“Your sister and the doctor must have known about this…! So he said something strange to me.”

Sylvia answered.

“That’s right.”

“Even if Mr. Ji-hyeok and Dr. Said so, even my sister… They said that there was no one to trust in the world… I didn’t know that words would resonate this much…! I feel like a loner! Did you mean to make me follow the king!?”

“You’re bullied… Adele, Master and I are worried about you…”

“Quiet! I need some alone time right now. Please direct me to the bedroom immediately.”

I thought I would cry and cry, but surprisingly, the reaction is calm.
I think it’s good that you said it in advance.
I gently stroked the back of Adele’s hand.

“Now both of them are coming here. Please look at my face today. They both missed Adele very much.”

Adele’s eyes widened.

“Are you Sehwa and YuRia?”

“Yes.”

Joy! Said Adele through his snout.

“You still love me. It’s natural. I am special…”

What a profit…

While Adele was narcissistic, the huge, arched door was pushed inward with a creak.
And from there, two women with dark brown and blonde hair came inside.
It was Sehwa and Yuria that I longed to see.
I, who was sitting on the throne, had no choice but to get up.

‘Ah…’

I felt sorry for these two.
I almost let go of Adele and Sylvia…
Even if you resent me, I will humbly accept it.
However, the magical power inherent in Sehwa and Yuria’s body… Is quite amazing.
You grew up here The Demon King is so happy.

“Ehh…?”

Adele’s embarrassing exclamation is heard from the side.
It seemed that he had no idea that it would come at this time.

The two people who came to the front of the throne along the carpet spread out in front of me smiled brightly.
Then he said in unison.

“Welcome, Master.”

“I made you wait. Sorry.”

Currently, Sehwa and Yuria have not transformed.
I’m sure you’ve heard the whole story from Marcella, so are you showing your human form to be considerate of Adele?
Judging from the fact that Saehwa’s eyes are on Adele and the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, it seems to be correct.

“Hello, Adele?”

“…..”

Adele quickly stiffened her expression and said nothing, her mouth poking out.
I think you’re screwed up tight
Seeing Adele like that, Saehwa said softly.

“My Adele, do you look very angry? I guess I heard everything from the owner.”

“…..”

“Can you hug me?”

“…..”

“Yes? Hug me I mean, I wanted to see you.”

“..Hehe…!”

Adele coughed and turned her body.
I’m dying of cuteness in her petite body that fits comfortably inside her throne.
As Saehwa got closer to Adele, Yuria greeted Sylvia with a bright smile.

“Sister, long time no see.”

“Yeah… Long time no see.”

“Welcome. Good luck in the future.”

The atmosphere between Yuria and Sylvia is quite friendly.
The two were watching Sehwa and Adele, holding each other in their arms.
If there is a problem, they always try to dry it.

“I haven’t seen you in a while… Are you going to do this?”

“… Hmmmm…!”

“Then shall I hug you?”

“…?”

Adele turned his head and looked at Sehwa.
It seems that he was taken aback by Sehwa’s sad attitude.

“Hug?”

“… Shi, I don’t like it…”

“I just need to hug you.”

Saehwa, who said it almost as if informing her, hugged Adele carefully.
Then she patted Adele on the back and said.

“I think the owner didn’t tell you because he was a bit of a housekeeper. Nice to meet you, and welcome… Ah!”

Sehwa suddenly let out a short scream.
It was because Adele bit Saehwa on the shoulder.

Got it!

The teeth dug into Saehwa’s shoulders with a creepy sound.
Frightened Sylvia and Yuria tried to run right away.
But when he saw Sehwa shaking his head, he stopped.

Now, Adele was channeling her tantrums in her own way.
I know just by looking into your eyes
Adele wasn’t genuinely angry, she was jealous of Sehwa’s mature appearance.

However, I was worried about Sehwa’s reaction.
She’s me. She likes Adele’s naughty side, and knows how to control it, but…
Sehwa and Yuria could accept it differently.

As expected, Yuria’s eyes were very dark.
It’s an attitude that makes you want to transform right away and aim the bow.
It was to the extent that Sylvia, who was close to her, looked at Yuria in a cold sweat.

“Ugh! Mmmm!”

Adele mumbled.
She seems to rebuke why she held her without permission.

“Calm down. My Adele, are you nice?”

And Sehwa calmed Adele by showing her resolute appearance.
I could see Adele’s eyes getting softer.
Did he become sedated by drinking Sehwa’s blood, which has the same properties as mine?
Or did he calm down his anger at Sehwa’s gentle embrace?

Adele, who bit Saehwa on the shoulder for a moment and sucked her blood, removed her mouth.

Hehe… It’s delicious… It’s not…! Sehwa Lee! You tricked me!”

An attitude that changed in an instant in a hazy state.
He even points with his finger and tries to scold Se-hwa.
Sehwa shrugged and said calmly.

“Did I cheat on you? When?”

“Ji, you’ve been hiding the fact that you’re a member of Mr. Jihyeok’s family until now!”

“That’s true… But your holy power is so strong that I had no choice but to cheat. I hope you understand.”

Adele’s nose rose.
She seemed to feel better as she comforted her with compliments.
However, that was short-lived.
Adele, frowning at her again, continued to push her hair, as if determined to build up her ego.

“Eh, I understand, but you have to pay the price for cheating on your friends all this time!”

After her words, Adele touched her device.

Fuhuaak-!

Blonde hair dyed purple from the ends.
As if trying to overpower Sehwa, Adele, who transformed into an evil Valkyrie, spoke.

“I will punish you! Please humbly accept it!”

Sehwa, who was looking at her shoulder that had been torn off in half, must have found Adele’s unique old-fashioned way of talking funny. Made a noise.
Then Adele, whose forehead had a tendon, kicked the ground vigorously.

Quaang!

Vibrations echoed throughout the audience room, and the floor cracked open.

“Laugh delicious…!”

Seeing this, Sehwa’s eyes sharpened.

“Are you going to punish me?”

“Umm…! Me, I’m merciful, so if you apologize, maybe you’ll forgive me…!”

“Really? But what? I have no intention of apologizing…”

“What is…?”

“I just did what my master told me to do.”

“You’re talking back…! Be quiet!”

Quaang! Bang!

Kicking is pretty good.
This will pierce my core.

“Calm down. Are you going to destroy the entire castle?”

“Quiet, quiet! How can you pick and choose what you don’t like!?”

Koo Goo Goo…!

Debris starts to fall from the ceiling.
I just need to stop Adele.
The moment I thought,

Fuhuaaak-!

A tremendous amount of demonic energy poured out of Sehwa’s body.
She too has undergone her transformation.

‘This…’

Seeing the dark clouds filling the throne room, I swallowed.
Even I, the demon lord, have such a thick and massive demon that my whole body tingles.
It even sucks the mana from my body in real time.
I felt great when I entered the audience room earlier… But this was more than I expected.

“I told you to calm down.”

Se-hwa warns Adele while holding a huge scythe containing the power of Astaroth.
There was something creepy about the quietness of the words while exuding strong magical energy.

“Ahhhhh…”

Seeing and feeling Saehwa’s magical power right in front of her nose, Adele stepped back from her.
A look completely crushed by momentum. But Adele was no ordinary person either.

“Profit!”

Hwaaak-!

She raised her magical energy and freed herself from her oppression, standing tall in her place, her eyes wide open.
Then, Sehwa smiled brightly.

“My Adele, are you very strong? Scary…”

Adele, nervous at her leisurely appearance, stammered her.

“More, more, more, more, more… The taste of dumping…! Mr Jihyeok! Hurry up and stop that terrifying woman… No, Sehwa! Just being together makes me want to urinate!”

Our Adele, wouldn’t it be right to say that we’re going to mess up there?
You were scared.
It would be worth trying if only I could overcome the momentum and fight… I was scared away by Sehwa’s demonic spirit.
Isn’t that too honest anyway? What if you show that you are afraid?
Even if you try to call her a girl, it’s funny seeing Sehwa’s notice and calling her by her first name.

Saehwa, who raised one corner of her mouth, turned her gaze to Sylvia, who at some point opened the distance.

“Why did you change your sister? She is very sad…”

With that said, Sylvia transformed as soon as Sehwa’s demonic energy was revealed, pulling out her twin swords and widening her distance, holding her stance.
And Yuria was aiming her bow at Sylvia’s forehead.
YuRia’s aura is also unusual. She has a great sense of intimidation.

Yuria, who was serious, said to Sylvia.

“Sister, put down your weapon.”

“You’re the one who put it down…! Are you going to shoot me now?”

“Since her sister transformed first, she has no choice but to be wary. If you move one more step from there, I will let go of the protest.”

“Do you think she can hit it?”

“You’ll know if you try.”

Her arms bend inward, she said.
Sehwa and Yuria deteriorated relatively faster than Adele and Sylvia, and fought across the line of fire together in the Pandemonium.
And Sylvia and Adele… Tell me what are you doing.
Although they may have quarreled recently, they are more intimate than her real sisters.
It was only natural for the two-on-two composition to come out.

“Mr. Jihyeok! Expensive carpets here might turn yellow! That would be very difficult to do laundry! If you don’t like that, you’d better dry Sehwa right away!”

Adele shouted at me without taking her eyes off Saehwa.
What kind of threat is that…
Sehwa’s magic is beyond imagination, so she’s just saying anything out of embarrassment? Laughter just leaks out.
But now was not the time to split up.

“All four of them end there.”

Sehwa was the first to receive my lowly command.
When her mana, which almost dominated the entire audience room, disappeared, Sylvia and Yuria met each other’s eyes and canceled their transformations.
Adele also put her hand on his chest and returned to normal.

“Whoah…”

After repeated relief, Adele runs behind me and hides.
The faint sound of her teeth crackling came from her.
It looked pretty scary. First, I’ll send Adele to her bedroom and let her cool off.
