Chapter 555 – Assassination Family Raven 6 (2)
As Princess Rosette was exchanging her opinions with her eyes, Kairen Dal Raven caught her attention by lightly clapping her hands.
Mate!
“Let’s go easily?”
Kyren Dal Raven continued her words with a sinister smile on her face.
“The most efficient way is to infiltrate the Crow family’s record room, obtain information related to the demon world, and then escape. But I’m asking for it through normal procedures, right? Princess Rosette is about to give birth, so fighting wouldn’t be such a wise idea. “
If Cairendal Raven is the Cyan Raven you know, you cannot completely block her movements.
There is a high possibility that you will be swayed without being able to do anything to protect the rosette.
But now I can control the shadow, so I can definitely suppress Kairendal the moment he moves.
‘The more you save that number, the better.’
“Kairendal, are you threatening me now?”
Princess Rosette spoke in an angry voice, as if she was very displeased with the fact that she had been put on the scale.
“It means there’s a chance she’ll cause a bit of trouble. Now, I hope you give her an answer quickly. She’s been itching to get her hands on it after taking a few days off from assassinating.”
A guy who uses shadow magic to kill enemies is so itchy.
“Good. I will allow you to view information related to the Demon World of the Crow family. I will grant permission as soon as you let the elders know that you have no intention of succeeding to the position of head of the family.”
“Okay. So you just have to look at those old people’s faces? They’ll take care of the rest, so you don’t have to worry.”
Kyren Dal Raven stood up and walked out of her guest room.
Seeing the door to the reception room close, Princess Rosette turned her head towards me.
“What does Xian think about the Alvirs Kingdom?”
“Perhaps Terrance Raven is involved. Isn’t there information in the Crow family’s records that he is presumed to have gone to the demon world?”
“Yes. I passed on everything except the blood-related stuff.”
A wizard who collaborated with Terrance Raven had research data showing that the Raven family’s blood was mixed with demons.
The research material, which could later become a weakness of the Raven family, was completely discarded after Princess Rosette and I looked at it together.
However, there is information that she must have gone to the Demon World, so unless Kairen Dal Raven is an idiot, she will be able to figure out that Terrance Raven is doing something in the Demon World.
“It’s a situation where there are no demons to be summoned. I never even thought about it.”
“Me too. But really… What if I try too hard to summon even one demon and a demon lord appears? That will be a huge disaster.”
Princess Rosette sighed and touched her stomach.
Wouldn’t you want the world to be shown to your soon-to-be-born baby not to be devastated by the battle against the devil?
Suddenly, my eye caught the silver bracelet I was wearing on my arm.
The head of the Gwen Shrine, who can communicate with her goddess, will contact her, but there has been no response yet.
“Let’s go up first. I don’t know when labor will start.”
“Yes, but it’s not as painful as that patient’s. Yui’s a priest, so don’t worry.”
“I understand. I’m still worried.”
I helped Princess Rosette out of her seat and slowly headed to the bedroom on the second floor.
On the way, I met Yui, who was outside, probably because she noticed the slightly cluttered atmosphere of the mansion, which was different from usual.
“Oppa Xian. Who came?”
Yui lightly bowed her head to Princess Rosette and asked me.
“A person who had the right to succeed to the family head. Now, it is the same as completely inheriting the family.”
“Congratulations. And since there is a successor, is it okay if the Raven family… Does well…?”
Yui limped slightly while speaking.
If it were a normal family, it would be great to completely inherit the family and have a successor, but the basic structure of the Raven family is related to assassination.
As the family grew larger, the number of assassins would increase and the number of people in the empire who would die would increase, so this could not be viewed positively.
“It’s a good thing.”
But it’s definitely a good thing because I can receive the full family name.
“I see. That’s a good thing. Are you okay? I’ll give you my blessing.”
“Thank you. Xian is taking care of his work.”
“Okay. See you later.”
He gave Princess Rosette a light kiss on the forehead, then parted ways with them and headed to her office.
(Shahemoth.)
(Master, what’s going on?)
(Protect Princess Rosette until Cairendal Raven leaves the family.)
Shahemoth, created using Shadow Craft, immediately melted into the shadow.
When using presence detection, it moves along a path that is unlikely to cause an accident, but it would still be better to put a safety device on.
(If I think about it, I don’t think I’ve ever asked about the Demon King because I was trying to prevent the Demon King from descending.)
(The entity that can be said to be the king of demons and the master of demonic energy is the demon lord. To be honest, I belong to the lowest class, so it’s hard to fully explain, but I know that he is strong. Many high-ranking demons obey the demon lord’s power.)
I already expected that it would be strong.
It was easy to deal with the demons I’ve fought so far because I had a shadow energy that could be said to be a special medicine. If I hadn’t, would the attack really have worked?
There was a very high possibility that even Shahemos, who I was currently connected to, would not be able to defeat.
(What about Wozniel? Please tell me if you have anything to say about the Demon King.)
I asked Wozniel because I thought he might know something if he had inherited the memories of the original body that died hundreds of years ago.
(I was protecting Caderal, which can be said to be humanity’s last bastion, and I remember seeing the Demon King come to invade.)
He is an angel who has actually seen the devil…
I can’t imagine how messed up the world must have been back then.
(I was protecting the barrier when the Demon King, who exudes extremely dark magical energy that the world cannot handle, and the demons loyal to him attacked Caderal. After the other angels and warriors engaged in a final battle with the Demon King’s forces, I succeeded in driving them out to the demon world, but I lost my life after using up all my strength in that battle.)
(Other than being strong?)
(I’m not sure because I haven’t competed with him directly, but I think he was closer to a wizard. As the earth cracked, the flames of hell rose up, and storms carried the flames in all directions. It was a time when it was difficult to find life on the earth except for Caderal.)
I thought that Wozniel in his prime, who protected Caderal from such a great spell, was even greater than I thought.
(What would have happened if a devil similar to a wizard had taken over my body?)
(I think the master is still similar to a wizard, right? There will be more attributes that can be freely manipulated.)
(I also think that my current master can compete with that demon lord.)
(Is that so…?)
I don’t know if I should like that the Demon King and I have similar skills.
It would be nice to be able to defeat it quickly with a blast of flame, but wouldn’t that be difficult?
‘That doesn’t mean I won’t use it.’
I’ll hit it and think about it.
***
‘It has become a complete monster.’
As Kyren Dal Raven was looking through information about her demon world in the Crow family’s record room, she recalled the Cian Raven who had met her face a little while ago.
Collateral, not direct. No, in fact, it is not right to call him a collateral, he was no different from an outsider.
Although he was born as a result of an intelligence agent of the Crow family having a relationship with an outsider, he was brought back to the family because he had talent.
The guy who should have been used as a stallion could have been overpowered in a fight right after his talent blossomed, but now it was different.
In just over a year since I left the empire, a big difference has occurred.
‘I’m not particularly jealous.’
I deeply felt that I was tied to Princess Rosette, her unborn child, and the family.
That guy will never feel this sense of freedom, of leaving his family and freely satisfying his desires.
While I was looking through the data and thinking about random things, the last piece of information collected on the Crow family caught my eye.
“Does this mean that blood is thicker than water?”
The corners of his mouth rose slightly as he imagined his father abandoning his family and leaving for the demon world where he could fight demons to his heart’s content.
I don’t know what my father was doing in the demon world, but if the seeds of low-level demons dried up and demons could not be summoned, it was dangerous to be in the Kingdom of Albirus, which would not stop the demon summoning ritual.
Moreover, since the Heavenly God Church and the Goddess Church have given oracles regarding heroes, it is possible that a hero, not an assassin from the Raven family, may attack.
‘Then shall we go to another kingdom? The desert woman was passionate.’
Kairendal Raven took out the shadow, put all the data back where they were, and came out of the records room.
***
As promised, Kairendal Raven quietly searched for information related to the demon world and left the family.
After confirming that she was leaving the family, she retrieved Shahe Mos.
“The work never ends.”
I was continuing to work in my office, but I also needed Princess Rosette’s help.
However, I couldn’t hand over all the work I was doing, so work was needed to reduce the amount of work the head of the household had to do.
Currently, there is something that only the head of the family can do, including examining the validity of the assassination target, and it seemed like something that could be done.
All you have to do is find out the truth about the incident and, unless the client is mistaken, just kill him.
Something that came up just as often was permission to export information.
Even if the imperial family, which has lost its cooperative relationship, establishes a new intelligence organization, the highly reliable information that the Crow family has continued to collect will not go anywhere.
The information sales business was emerging as the most important business as the two families were earning the necessary funds by selling information, and high-level information was subject to permission from the head of the family.
It would be quite convenient if you let go of these two things, but then the weight of the head of the family will be greatly reduced.
‘It’s okay for me to have overwhelming force.’
I don’t know what will happen to the baby that Princess Rosette is carrying.

A servant of the Raven family came running into the office, making unusually loud footsteps.
“Sian, Rosette…”
“I understand. Let’s go right away.”
It looks like Rosette is starting to give birth to her child.
