Chapter 27 – Master’s Mind

Episode 27 Master’s Heart

Uh, wait a minute.
Come to think of it?

“Oh. Master.”

Before leaving the cabin, he hurriedly sat back in his chair.

“I have a personal question.”

“Tell me.”

Master looked at me with deep eyes, as if his mind had been relieved by the conversation with me.

“That… When I collapsed after bidding.”

“Huh.”

“Even then, master manipulated Eva to take care of me, right?”

“Then!”

“And is it true that Eva went home?
I… I heard a strange noise while taking a bath…”

I almost had sex with Rumika in the middle of the heat!
I was very upset because I heard a strange voice and my things became muddy.

“…”

“… That telepathy, Master sent it to me?!”

“…”

Master is suddenly silent.

“Didn’t you go to Eva’s house?
Or Master came directly nearby.”

“… Oh, I’m so tired all of a sudden.
Come on out.”

“Oh really, why did you do that!”

Besides, even when she squeezed all her strength and confessed to Rumika that was not a confession, it was like that.
Therefore… She remembers well the promise she made while drinking, to protect Rumika.
The moment I confessed it and continued talking, something kept digging into my head and I was cracking and passed out.

Come to think of it, isn’t that phenomenon the same as when I control my mind and sparks fly when I’m blocked by a mental barrier?!

“Did you try mental interference while taking a bath with Rumika?!”

“… Oh my, did you take a bath with him?
Is that sneaky kid doing something sinister?”

Oh right!
The culprit is here!
Ha… Power goes down

Even if Master hadn’t intervened, things would have happened in a flash!!
Get Lumica, become the demon lord’s spouse, and rule the world!
A woman’s jealousy is so scary.
I just wash my face dry.

“Seeing that it didn’t work even when I hypnotized Eva and tested it, I guess I haven’t surpassed Master yet.”

“Oh, did you know that now?”

“… Didn’t you say that the fact that you weren’t mentally controlled during the duel earlier was because I watched you?”

“This is Cha-am.
I started to get caught because I had the heart to get caught.
If I had made up my mind and resisted, you wouldn’t have even put a hand on my head in the first place.”

Mind control has a distinct weakness compared to its strength, which is that it requires direct contact with the head.

Dreuk.

I get up from my seat.
I took a chair to the seat next to Master and sat down with the backrest in front of me.

“… Why did you think you would get mentally controlled?”

“… Dude, you really don’t notice.
Not a kid…”

“… No, Master suddenly said let’s break up first.
How we broke up, why are you here now…”

“…”

The woman’s push and pull is unknown.
Especially when it comes to the push and pull of a 300-year-old woman.

“No, I don’t understand.
Now that I think about it, didn’t you know that the bath powder was an exclusive elixir for Lumica?
So didn’t you help me mix it with fragrant roses and put it in the bath water?
But at that time, he helped, and at the crucial moment, he interfered…
You don’t understand, understand.”

“… Hey.”

“Yes?”

I couldn’t hear the answer because it was only the sound of mosquitoes.

“… It’s a whim.”

“…”

This is a complete foul
There’s no such thing as logic and reason, so it’s an excuse.
I can’t tolerate it.
But I can’t even get angry.
I’m really, really… Under… !

“… Are you mad?”

“… I am not angry.”

“But why do you keep running your hair over?”

“… I’m sweating.”

“Why are you sweating?”

“… I am angry.”

“… Look, you’re angry.”

“Sheesh, I’m fickle too.”

“…”

Hey look
I do the same, so it makes me angry.
Ah, they said it was Banrohwandong.
Is it like that?

“Teacher cheated, so please do me a favor.”

“What is the foul…”

“Ah, just listen!”

“… What?”

“If you say yes, I will tell you.”

“…”

Good. The winning method worked!
Deadly kid mew fooling around!
It’s wrong to talk about the problem between men and women with logic in the first place!
Just swarm!
Take it!!!

“I hate it because you’re not good-looking.”

“No, why are you suddenly rushing?!”

I fall over the desk in shock.
Ha… Do you think this is too much?
If he looked like Van Dark, all the women would wear it.
Really.

“… Okay.
Tell me.”

“Next time, when I ask, please come in your body form.
Let’s talk alone
Don’t come possessing someone else’s body.”

“… Why?”

“Why, why?
It’s because I want to see you.
I have something to say.”

“Are you relieved now… ?”

“It didn’t work out.”

“No, not just a few days ago…
A few years ago, a few decades ago.”

“… Let’s talk about it face-to-face, we.”

I also rub my shoes on the floor for no reason.

“The duel between me and Master… I know that the world curses at me, and I know that I am pointed at.
And I know that Master stopped me to the extent of discipline and dispatch.
I thought it was very hypocritical at the time…”

Whoa, I don’t know.
I thought I had organized my thoughts and organized my mind on the way here.
It’s not even my own face, but looking at Eva’s face instead, I can say
Very embarrassing

“… No.
I’ll tell you the rest of you face to face.
Just the two of you.
Sure.”

I’m worried that if I see your face in person, I’ll be relieved of my anger…

“… Won’t you misunderstand others?”

“After hearing what Jacques and Ludvik said, it had already spread out of control.
When it’s sorted out later… Either give an explanation or make a presentation.”

… Yeah, that’s when I really hit the head.
After that, let’s solve it now.

“… Presentation.
OK got it.
I’ll promise.”

“Ah, true Master.
I have one more question.”

“What else?”

“Well, if you possess Eva’s body, does Eva not remember being possessed?”

“… Why do you ask so many questions?”

* * *

“Captain! The sun is already in mid-heaven!
What kind of poison is this long!”

“You’re right!
We came here this morning!”

“Oh hey, these guys!
It was a question that became blood and flesh!
But, why are you talking like that again?
Do you want to hang upside down again?! Ok?!”

When I lose my temper, Jacques and Ludwig look at each other and laugh leisurely.

“Hot ha ha! What do you say!
Are you saying that an informant persecutes the informants appointed by Nene, the Four Heavenly Kings and the espionage officer of the Demon King Army?!”

“Hot ha ha!
If you bother me like that, in Nene’s ears
Strange words come in!”

These guys… It would be more appropriate to say that he was a eunuch, not a centurion.
You guys are so amazing at choosing the ropes to catch!

“Where are you going?”

“The goal is to be strong in Amity.
Go straight to the Cathedral.”

“Yes?!”

There is some truth in Master’s advice.
The more goals there are, the more spread out the effort.
Set the first target as the strongest opponent, the cathedral, and take control as planned.
This makes it easier to capture other objectives based on the cathedral.

High Priestess Philip hadn’t noticed my existence yet.
I need to take control of the cathedral before they notice me.

“The Church of the Sun God can’t be touched by the royal family or nobles.
We have Marianne.
Before High Priest Philip notices me, he takes control of the cathedral.
Hey, the commander of the paladin escort.
Where is your family?”

“This is Abu Bakr.”

“Then, starting today, I am also a member of the Abu Bakr family.
I entered Amitie with your connections and got a bid while working as an herbalist.
Let’s just say that was the secret we were hiding.”

My radical idea only baffled Marianne.

“That… Camus!
If we go to the cathedral now, High Priest Philip will be aiming for us right away, right?”

“I guess so.
But isn’t everyone in the cathedral thinking radical enough to kill Marianne?
Let’s go and smell that we have proof to shake High Priest Philip.
I’m going to back off the bait.”

First of all, we know that Van Dark’s 3rd Corps of the Demon King’s Army and High Priest Philip made contact and attacked Marianne.
And with those who participated in it.
I don’t know how much it will work with only witnesses, but if they know that this side is holding a tile, the other side will react in a hurry.

“‘Those who attacked the Saint of the Sun!
What are their true identities?!
In addition, even the Demon King’s Army found out about this and set up an ambush on the way to the refugee camp…!’
If you spread a trailer like this, wouldn’t Philip come out to destroy the evidence?”

“… Captain, it will come out, but you can pretend you don’t know and bury it.”

“… I’m afraid the reverse will come out too strong, my lord.
Those who have already raided us with mercenaries and regular soldiers.
Wouldn’t it be better to do it in a place that is different from their courtyard?”

Ludvik’s words and Rebekah’s words both make sense.

Going in and mentally manipulating additional Paladins and Priests to make our side is difficult to do quickly.

We moved to the Cathedral, and in the carriage we discussed vigorously how to overthrow High Priest Philip.

“Ah, yes, chief.
I just said Nene.”

“Yeah, Master why?”

“… No, it’s very different from what I’m used to hearing.”

“Are you going to be an illusionist?
It will look different next time you see it.”

“… Ay.
Then when will I see that sexy dynamite body… ?”

Fuck!

“Aah, save Zach!”

“It looks like you haven’t been beaten by the Geumgang Buddha yet.”

“Why, why… Is this correct?”

“You’ll tell Master that so he won’t be favored again.”

Uh? Come to think of it, didn’t these guys threaten me for telling Master this and that?
Is this your chance to get it right?!

“But, sir.
I heard that you had a duel with Master, and you received a lot of help…
Aren’t you getting along a lot worse than you thought?”

“…”

As Ludvik said, externally, we exchanged magic and dueled like we were going to kill each other.
No, that’s true, and it actually went out of hand like that…
Because she is my teacher and ex-girlfriend.
It’s a very complicated relationship.

“At that time, I was really angry.
I was also disappointed in my master.
Even now, the sediment is not completely resolved, but…
Oh, I really don’t know…”

Possession is a skill that is quite exhausting even for the Four Heavenly Kings, Nene Boulanger, a ‘illusionist’.
And since you can’t use it from a distance, you have to enter the capital of the human kingdom, at least when ‘possessing’ Eva other than hypnosis or suggestion.

… It wasn’t that he had to go through such hardships for a high-class operation target like a king or princess.
Can you walk up to a maid and help me?

… I may have been monitoring you, but I don’t know.
As I said before, at least it was the possessed Master himself who took good care of me when my body was broken after I went to the bidding.
When I think about that, my resentment towards Master, who has not been contacted or apologized for the past few years, is a little relieved.

…Why do you do that?
… Do you still have feelings for me?
No, if that’s the case, why did you ask to break up in the first place…
There was not a single premonition.

“Stop tearing your hair out, Master.
Then my hair comes off.”

“Oh, that doesn’t work.
Anyway, it’s very complicated.”

“Hey, give it up.”

“Chit… “

Jiggle.

“… What are you guys doing now?”

“Ah, Zach insisted, ‘Captain, Rumika-sama is 100% all-in!’, So I bet that Captain, ‘I have my heart left for you.'”

Fuck!

“Oh my!
The special judge is dead!”

“Yes, I tasted your fireball very well.”

Ludwig is also throwing a punch, but Marianne reacts to something in her.

“Camyu-nim, something is coming in front of me!”

If you open your eyes, you can see some dust rising from afar.

“Everyone is on alert.
For the Paladins!”

To return to the cathedral with dignity, the paladin captives are wearing their original armor and helmets, and flags are fluttering in wagons.
That’s enough to confirm your identity just by pretending.

“A lot of people are riding horses.
Jacques, Ludwig.
Hide your horns well, hide among the mercenaries.
I sit in the driver’s seat
Marie, Rebekah.
Prepare for inspection.”

The cavalry rushing forward, raising a cloud of dust, gradually appeared.
Knights in armor with quite colorful patterns raised flags with white patterns on a blue background.
Was holding

“Marie, is this a pattern you know?”

“No. But guess.
I think it’s from an eastern aristocratic family.
And… There is a flag you know in the middle.”

“Who?”

“I am the hero Alberic.”

“… !”

Oh, man
I didn’t expect to meet you so suddenly.

The demon king, the one who killed Rumika’s father, as well as the one who killed our parents and younger brother.
Can I catch it if I hit it now?

While I was thinking about it, the dust was gradually approaching.

“Camyu-sama, they’ll probably stop when they run into us.”

Everyone looks at me

“What should I do?”

“First of all, the escort captain responds.
Hiding in the cargo hold of the wagon with Marie and Rebekah.
Don’t stand out
If you get caught, keep your words as short as possible.
And from now on, call me Mr. Coach.
You are the only one who knows
They say they are going back after completing volunteer work in the refugee camp.
I’m the herbalist Camu who accompanied me while I was bidding.”

You have to trick it well with a hastily made excuse so that you can proceed with the next day.
Lips are tight.

Warrior Alberic. He was coming
