Chapter 80 – Aether Is…?

Among the numerous natural wells in Yucatan, Mexico, known as Cenotes, there is a beautiful place called Ikkil.
There is Chichen Itza nearby, so it is also a course that tourists go through when going to see it.
There was a hidden space somewhere on the wall of this Ik-Kil.
Until Aether was discovered, no one in the world knew of its existence.

Boo Woo-wook!

Me and Sehwa came out of the portal that tore through the air.
The three guards who have been monitoring the surroundings of Ikkyel are startled.
They shouted something in Spanish and pointed their guns at us, but when Saehwa waved his hand once, he collapsed, emitting gray smoke from his body.

Sehwa, who took the smoke from the bodies of the three, rolled it into a ball and squeezed it tightly.
Then Puck! The smoke turned to powder and fell between Saehwa’s fingers.
It is like a stone that has not been able to withstand the storm of time and has been crumbled.
Se-hwa, who destroyed the souls of three humans with an indifferent face, admires the interior of Ik-kyel illuminated by the moonlight.

“It’s so beautiful… I want to swim here…”

Since I didn’t answer, Sehwa turned his head and raised his eyebrows.

“Master!”

“Why?”

“I want to swim here!”

“You can do it. Did you take off all your clothes?”

“Seeing…”

Saehwa clenched her fists in response to my answer as if she seemed annoyed and swung wildly in the air.
Shadow boxing is really cute.
To the point of bursting into laughter.

“Aether detection is no longer possible, right?”

At those words, Sae-hwa stopped moving and slumped.

“Yes, no.”

Sehwa was in a state where she lost her ability to detect as the aether belonging to her became a completely different substance.
But it didn’t matter much.
Because I know the location of Aether.

“I’m sorry…”

“What?”

“I couldn’t help…”

“Everything is boring. Come on.”

Sehwa approached me with her gun-like strides.
I gave her a deep kiss on her forehead and told her it was okay.
Then, floating in the air, she entered the interior of Ikkil and put her hand on the wall in the farthest corner, which was in contact with the water, and concentrated her mana.

Perseok!

Then, the wall was crumbled similar to how Sehwa had destroyed the guard’s soul, and a space that one person could barely enter appeared inside.
I smiled at Sehwa, who had curious eyes behind me.

“Shall we go in?”

“Can’t we wait here? Scary.”

What a scary…

“Then stay here.”

“Um… I’ll just go with the owner.”

After doing this and that, what are we going to do?
I let out a weak sigh and took the lead in entering the space.
Sehwa followed me tightly holding the hem of my clothes.

It was a space where she could not see even an inch in front of her, but when she focused her eyesight, she could see it clearly.
Shortly after crossing it, the road widened and a blocked space appeared.
Looking around, I tilted my head.

“What?”

“Why are you…?”

Not answering Sehwa’s question, I focused my eyesight even more.
There must be a rainbow-colored Aither for Rosé, but why not?
This place is definitely right. Because there was only one space on the wall to learn.
But why… Why not?

‘Let’s stay calm.’

Will be somewhere
Should be It should be.
For a long time, I searched for Aither through all of Ikkil.

**

My plan so far went as planned, even if it went a little wrong.
It is said that it did not deviate from the big frame.
But now it was different.
Even if it was wrong, it was too wrong.

“This… Such nonsense…!”

Even if the space is doubled or tripled by destroying the wall… Even if I reveal the entire Ikkil, which has been a shelter for tourists for a long time, there is no Aether of Rosé.

Trembling body.
Blood leaks from clenched fists.
Saehwa was restless as she looked at me, but she was not in a situation to reassure her right now.
I feel like I’m going to be embarrassed right now, so how can I reassure Sae-hwa in this state?

Yuria’s Aether was in the exact location I remembered.
So Rosé’s should be here too… Why isn’t it?
There was obviously no sign that someone had taken it.
There is no one to take it.

“I don’t understand… I don’t understand.”

“Master… Sir… What is…?”

Sehwa trembled her lips.
I think this kind of look is quite scary.
Okay… Let’s calm down. Let’s say there is no Aether of Rosé…
Let’s find Caroline and Celine’s Aether first.

“Let’s go somewhere else.”

Unbeknownst to me, the devil’s way of speaking comes out.
Now is not the time to act as Song Ji-hyeok.

“Yes Yes!”

Sehwa hurriedly nodded.
I took her and rode her portal.
Her destinations were Portugal and Greece.

**

Quaang! Blasphemy!

“Kyaaak!”

My right wrist, which had smashed the wall of the base base, was bent abnormally, and the shrapnel was lodged in my flesh, and blood gushed out.
At this useless act, Sae-hwa screamed and spoke to Marcella, who was next to her.

“Treat it right away. Hurry!”

“Wow, Queen… There are no medical devices here.”

“Use magic or whatever to cure it!”

“Hwang… Songhao, but I don’t know how to use healing magic… The same goes for other monsters…”

Sehwa’s expression changed like a demon from hell.

“Useless year. Get off immediately.”

“Yes… Four!”

As Marcella steps out of her seat, Sae-hwa tries to calm me down from the throne.

“Master… Please calm down…”

I don’t have all three Aither, do I really look like me?
However, as Sehwa said, you have to calm down even if you are forced to.
Because the matter was too serious to be angry.

“After…”

I took a deep breath, and Saehwa let out a sigh of relief.

“Master… You’ve entered the medical equipment now…”

“Don’t worry, you will recover naturally. It doesn’t even hurt.”

“However…”

“I told you not to worry.”

“Yes…”

Resting my left arm on the armrest of the throne and resting my chin on it, I seriously thought about it.

The remaining three do not appear in episode 6? This makes no sense.
It’s because the developer said that there will be 5 heroines.
Besides, the third heroine, Rose… In other words, Stella Haley is living well on Earth now.
Of course, the storyline may have changed as I became the Demon King and lived this reality.
But even with that in mind, it should appear. Stella is still alive right now, right?
You absolutely have to show up.

Doctor or Marcella took Aether? This also made no sense.
As for the doctor, I’m monitoring him in real time, and Marcella is loyal to me.
If he had retrieved Aether, he would have spoken in advance.

In addition to this, several hypotheses were set up, but all were impossible to be sure.
There is no point in thinking about it.

I should have checked all Aether right before attacking Sehwa, but it was my mistake.
I was too complacent.
But… Come to think of it, there was no need to fret.
There is no trace of who took it.
It wasn’t there in Ikkiel, and I tried to figure it out more thoroughly in Portugal and Greece.
Also, I didn’t directly retrieve the Aether, but I was constantly monitoring the location.

In other words, it means that the three Aether were not there originally.
Then you just have to corrupt Yuria and wait while watching Rosé.
Do you know me too? There is no guarantee that the story of episode 6 will flow like episodes 1-5.
Let’s go according to plan. There is no need to change.

Yeah, that’s fine Doo-dung with Caroline and Celine transformed! Even if they appear, if they are Sehwa and Yuria, they can be opponents.

“Marcella!”

At my high-pitched cry, Marcella, who was waiting outside the door, hurriedly ran and knelt down.

“Yes, Demon King.”

“Aether cloning research is suspended for the time being. While I focus on YuRia, you should look for the existing Aether. Maybe it could be somewhere else.”

“All right.”

I’d love to search the entire universe for Caroline and Celine, but how can I find it in that vast expanse?
If you only knew where in the galaxy they live in, things would be easy.
However, due to the nature of Pongppalmul Yagem, it is difficult to know the exact location.
All I know is that Caroline and Celine came from another world in a galaxy far, far away.
There is no choice with this one.

Ugh!

Cell phone rings. The caller is Yuria.
It was a message to Kim Tae-gon.

[Dad, where are you? Why didn’t you come in yesterday? Why can’t I call?]

[I’m sorry. I had a business trip scheduled suddenly… I was busy all night.]

[Is it related to Jihyeok?]

[It’s a different business. Don’t go in today.]

[Yes.]

After examining this and that plan and devising it again, the wrist bones were attached.
It even came clean as the shards were pushed out.
It’s good that the devil’s body is good.
I got up from the throne and gave Sae-hwa a benevolent smile and calmed her down.

“Sorry.”

Only then does Sae-hwa feel relieved when Song Ji-hyeok’s soft tone comes out.
And then you roll your eyes at me
Those blue eyes are scary.

“Let’s go back.”

“Yes…”

Should not be shaken I’m doing my job.

**

Click!

“It’s over.”

After increasing the capacity of the device, I wiped off my sweat.
Yuria answered in an awkward tone.

“Thanks.”

Right now, there are me, Sehwa, Yuria, and even the doctor in the lab.
As for Yuria, who doesn’t know that Sehwa is a member of my family, she has no choice but to pay attention to her.

“You’re welcome.”

I smiled and signaled to Sehwa.
I want you to set up a separate seat with Dr.
Then, Sae-hwa approaches the doctor who is developing the equipment and speaks shyly.

“Doctor.”

“Yes?”

“I… I have something to tell you… I want to apologize for the last time…”

“Okay.”

The tone and attitude of sincere reflection… Great acting.
I was worried in Canada, but you don’t have to worry.
With a bright face, the doctor took Saehwa and entered the room.

I stood up, grabbed the device and put it on Yuria’s wrist.

“Mr. Jihyeok… You can’t do this even in the lab…”

She scolded me in a very quiet voice.
Even though Sehwa is nearby, it seems that his conscience is stabbed.
What can’t you do I stayed still until it was filled.

“A look like that will only raise suspicion.”

“The seat is… So uncomfortable…”

“I was talking with Sehwa earlier, what did Sehwa say?”

“Device… How did you charge it…”

“What did you say?”

“That…He said he had someone he likes…”

“Well done. Don’t forget it in two days.”

“Yes…”

Yuria shyly avoids the seat.
I thought, grinning at her.
Song Ji-hyeok, Kim Tae-gon, and Se-hwa are cheating on you with one heart and one mind.
