Chapter 644 – Chapter 644. Demon Cult Wiped Out (2)
“That’s why. Rumi is…”
“Lucy also once apologized to Mr. Ai for shooting a flaming arrow by mistake…”
“Ah. But that was a mistake that couldn’t be helped! Mr. Ai blocked my eyes.”
I sat in a cafe and watched the conversation between the two.
The ones chatting in front of me are Lucy and Rumi.
The two were eating cake while talking about what happened in Japan.
‘It’s delicious…’ .’
Sweetness fills your body every time you put the strawberry-topped cake in your mouth.
This is enough to come and eat.
“Hoyeon, do you like the cake?”
“Yes. It’s good that you came.”
“Hehe. I chose with Lucy.”
“It’s a place where strawberries are especially delicious!”
I eagerly agreed with Lucy and Rumi’s words and looked outside.
Even while hanging out with Lucy Lumi’s twins at a cafe, she had problems filling her head.
‘Those bastards must be like the devil’s cult…’
A leaflet I received from a pseudo on the street.
It was still in my pocket, and still possessed a subtle infernal magic.
‘There’s no reason to feel the magic of hell unless you’re from the Devil’s Cult.’
There is no possibility that the magic of hell can be felt from the leaflets distributed by ordinary pseudos.
There was a high possibility that it was the devil’s organization, the Devil’s Church, but the problem was that what I felt there was the magic of hell.
‘Is it not just the maestro who feels the magic of hell, but the real devil?’
I thought there was only a maestro, but if there is a devil, you have to be even more nervous.
Even if they were called the Demon Cult, there was something strange about it.
‘I’m doing this openly, but it hasn’t been found so far?’
The Demonic Cult is investigating not only me, but also the Iris Guild and Victoria Academy.
However, I couldn’t understand why they acted so openly.
“Mr. Hoyeon?”
“Lee Ho-yeon, what are you doing?”
Maybe I was too lost in my thoughts?
Lucy and Rumi were staring this way.
“Oh, yes. Sorry, I had another thought for a second. What did you say?”
“What is it? I’ll go to the bathroom with Rumi, so wait for me.”
“Okay. I’ll be waiting.”
Lucy and Rumi went to the bathroom, and I took out the flyer I had stuffed into my pocket.
Even if I read it roughly, the content didn’t look very good.
“Destruction is coming to the world, participate in the meeting… Hmm. Participating in the meeting means that there is a meeting…”
Are there a lot of people involved?
It may be bigger than you think.
I got a smart watch.
– Me: Alice. People handing out fake flyers on the street are suspicious. Since there is a meeting, investigate while being careful not to let the investigators disappear.
I looked at Everytime to see if there were people who felt strange, but there was little information about the pseudonym.
Most of them were swearing that handing out flyers was annoying.
“Hmm. Hmmmm~.”
As I was looking at my smartwatch, I heard a pleasant hum soon after.
Upon returning to her seat, Lucy looked at the flyer in my hand and asked.
“Lee Ho-yeon. What are you looking at?”
“Lucy. Don’t you feel something strange about this?”
“Is that the flyer? Why didn’t you throw it away?”
Looking around with the leaflet in my hand, Lucy squinted at him and shook her head.
“Hmm. I’m not sure.”
“Okay. It’s okay if it’s nothing.”
“What is it? You’re losing steam.”
Lucy is also a wizard who uses the magic of hell.
If she didn’t notice, most of her investigators wouldn’t have noticed either.
Some doubt and follow him…
‘I must have been brainwashed by the maestro.’
Investigators also cannot report all cases to the upper level, so it is common for cases of this level to be directly investigated to confirm whether they are really suspicious before reporting them.
If you think like that, it makes sense that the investigators disappear.
‘Because no one can detect magic better than me.’
She must have been brainwashed after contacting the Devil Church alone and disappeared as it is.
Either she is missing a report or she doesn’t know that she has been brainwashed.
“… It sucks.”
Should I do some research myself later?
The worst thing is to send more investigators and then the maestro runs away.
I’ll have to tell Alice to investigate so she won’t get caught.
“Hoyeon. What are you doing?”
“No. Just looking at the flyer made me feel bad.”
I put the leaflet in the trash with a smile.
Investigating the Demonic Cult is important, but if you’re not going to attack alone anyway, you’ll need time.
Let’s focus on playing with Lucy Rumi for now.
“Ah, it’s so delicious… I just wanted to show you my pretty image today. Can I eat it like this?”
Lucy was holding the cake with her fork as she said that.
I think it’s because he knows he’s pretty too.
“Lucy is pretty even if she eats a lot.”
“Whoops. Thank you!”
While Lucy smiled at her, Rumi blinked at her and she raised her fork hastily.
“Ho, Hoyeon. I’m going to eat cake too.”
“Rumi is pretty and cute too.”
“… Yum.”
I smiled at Rumi as she blushed and ate her cake.
Even though it’s not a big deal, the cuteness is buried in her body.
This is the realm of talent.
‘As expected, I can’t be leisurely.’
It looks like there will be a lot of work to do tomorrow.
*
Maestro.
The final boss who continues to torment the main character in the original work.
To be precise, the Demon King is the final boss… Maestro, who made the demon king descend and tormented the main character throughout the game, is more difficult to deal with.
In particular, what is difficult for him is his unique fighting style.
“Baby daddy. Can this be enough?”
“I wish I was a little stronger.”
“Ummm. It’s possible, but why are you doing this? Did you have a taste like this?”
“… Rebecca, please pay attention.”
Lee Ho-yeon recalled her memories of meeting the maestro at her academy.
A strange feeling that no magic power enters the body.
The feeling of frustration and helplessness that grips the whole body.
Lee Ho-yeon could feel that she was the fate Chiron had said about her in that meeting.
Memories of that time remain intact.
When we meet again, I won’t be as helpless as I was then.
Jiing-
The barrier of runes that filled her training ground put pressure on Lee Ho-yeon’s body.
The rune barrier Rebecca uses is the same as Lee Ho-yeon’s, but different.
The extreme meaning of the barrier of the runes she uses can literally do anything.
That’s why I asked to recreate her pressure when I met the maestro.
However, it was different from the feeling Lee Ho-yeon expected.
‘The pressure is strong, but…’
When she met the maestro, it wasn’t just pressure she felt.
A slightly higher-level feeling that is difficult to express?
It seems that Rebecca had a hard time recreating it.
“Deployment of Macheon Palace.”
“Uh, uhh…”
As she unfolded her Macheongung, Lee Ho-yeon’s magical power began to push away Rebecca’s magical power.
Her strength, which had been weighing down her entire body, naturally disappeared, and Rebecca narrowed her eyes until she finally released her magic.
“Surrender, surrender! It’s hard to die. Ha ha.”
“Thank you, Rebecca. There was something I wanted to test out.”
“What are you doing with this much? It’s okay now? I have to go play with Miss Scarlett and Liliana.”
“Yes. Please play slowly.”
I heard that everyone is going shopping together today, so it was very fortunate that we were able to play well even without confidence.
After Rebecca left, Lee Ho-yeon practiced her magic in an empty training ground and came up to the first floor.
Nam Da-eun and Nam Da-hee went out together, and Lee Ho-yeon was alone at home.
“Let’s go out at least once.”
Before the attack of demons and demon lords, the problem to be solved immediately was the Devil Church.
In the original work, Maestro was killed and the Demon King appeared, but now we do not know what will happen.
If a situation arises where the two exist together, clearing will be extremely difficult.
‘If I can handle the Maestro, it will be much easier for humans to come together.’
Although Lee Ho-yeon has solved the brainwashing of people from each country, he can’t be bothered every time.
Dealing with Maestro will make it easier to block the Demon King’s attack.
‘I think I want to go in alone.’
He wants to find the maestro right now and smash his head, but if he were to suffer himself, there would be no such disaster.
But I couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
Even if the Iris Guild investigates, you don’t know when the investigation will end.
“Let’s meet the head of the Korean branch at the academy.”
Asking Ellis every time is a bit much, so you can ask Dr. Kang Hyo-rin directly.
Iris can’t leave everything to the guild, so let’s find out what she can help herself.
Lee Ho-yeon dressed roughly and came out of the house.
*
Academy’s faculty room.
Dr. Hyorin Kang yawned at her and sorted her papers.
Originally, she had been working as an academy professor and Iris Guild Korean branch manager, but she felt even more tired today.
“…Why is my head hurting so much these days?”
Kang Hyo-rin was investigating the Mine organization as the head of the Korean branch.
Many movements of demons have been captured in Korea, but strangely, their bases have not been found.
As the head of the Korean branch, it hurt my pride.
“It’s because Scarlett didn’t come on a date. Eh. Tsk.”
Actually, Scarlett was hanging out with women, but that was not important to Kang Hyo-rin.
I should send you a message of regards later.
“Haaaaa… How far did I investigate?”
Kang Hyo-rin read her documents and went down.
Then, a strange part caught her eye.
“…That’s strange. I didn’t go here?”
Hyorin Kang frowned and checked her documents.
It was about tracing back the movements of the demons and finding a place that was believed to be the base of the organization.
It was the result of finding the base of the demons hiding in the Iris Guild.
Since it is an important matter, she was thinking of investigating it herself rather than entrusting it to an investigator, but she still hasn’t gone.
Something was strange.
“No. I must have been two days ago…”
The moment you feel awkward.
Kang Hyo-rin’s eyes widened.
Kang Hyo-rin, who stared at her empty eyes with empty eyes, regained her sanity after a few minutes.
She looked around blankly and picked up her smartwatch.
“Hmm…? What was I doing? Oh, was I trying to send a text message to Scarlett?”
Kang Hyo-rin smiled and sent a message to Scarlett.
Because she had so much fun teasing her relationship with Lee Ho-yeon.
In Kang Hyo-rin’s memory, the documents about the Mine organization had already been forgotten.
