Chapter 174 – Chapter 10 – Return

“But what’s with the guest’s bundle?”

“Oh this.”

I looked at the bundle in my arms at her words.

Come to think of it, I was so distracted that I forgot half of my existence.

Why don’t you have a remote control in your hand when you look around to find it? It just feels like that.

I unconsciously held it tight, but at some point, I forgot the feeling that I was holding it.

“I got it because it was paid, but then I forgot about it.”

“You look very urgent, but did you manage to take care of that again?”

“…Iknow, right.”

I have to say I’m great too.

In the midst of frantically running away, I was holding it properly in my hand again.

‘Is it natural that he earned it through all that hardship?’

No matter how scared you are, you have to pay for your hard work.

If you just run away because you’re scared, it’s not at the level of free volunteering, and it’s like suffering mental damage.

‘Even if it’s a reward, it must have been a little bit of money.’

My predictions were almost right.

When I unpacked the bundle with a confused expression, there were about 50 coins inside, as well as unexpected things.

“…What is this?”

“Does it seem like alcohol?”

“No, I know it’s alcohol, but why is it here…”

There was also a sake bottle wrapped in a wooden box so that the bottle would not break.

No matter how much it is wrapped in a box, it is only a bundle, so what if it breaks?

“Is this how you usually store alcohol?”

“…It’s an unusual case, but… Well, if you put it that way, the Demonic Cult itself isn’t a normal group…”

“..I don’t think I have anything to say if I say that.”

I carefully opened the stopper and sniffed the scent, trembling at the fact that the precious liquor would have been blown away if I had handled it roughly.

Subtle yet intense. However, the scent was not unpleasant at all.

‘It’s a very precious drink.’

I drank until I was about to collapse not too long ago, and when the scent entered my nose, saliva flowed out as if I had become Pavlov’s dog.

Maybe I’m a dog, not a human, so if I had a tail, I would be wagging behind me by now.

[Ah, that’s a good idea, warrior! The next pictorial was taken with the concept of being a beast with animal ears or a tail..]

‘Block.’

[Gee, don’t worry! It’s not the kind of tail that the hero thinks, it’s the essence of magic civilization that magically and safely moves according to your emotional state when you attach it to your back!]

‘Is that the essence of civilization?’

That world is ruined.

Oh really messed up

[Too bad!]

I took out the small paper that was in the bottle with her alcohol, leaving behind the poor saintess who was suffering from the factual violence that I had unknowingly inserted.

It was written in an elegant handwriting presumed to belong to a woman, and as soon as you saw the contents, you could guess who wrote it.

[I’ll serve you a better drink next time.]

‘…The heavenly horse.’

The person of my destiny whom Heavenly Spirit told me about.

If a woman with a beautiful appearance and matching hobbies is designated as her fateful partner, it would be normal for her to like a man, but I was just afraid.

I only wish that this fate would not come upon me, I swear to heaven that my expectations are not even 1%.

‘…’

..Anyway, very little.

After confinement in the basement, I wonder if they will live a life of being raped and raised all day long.

Just like the future Heavenly Demon said before parting, I intend to struggle as much as possible.

Heaven is just a lot of possibilities, not a definite future.

In that sense, it was a wise choice for me not to leak heavenly secrets to the current Heavenly Demon even in that chaotic situation.

A common misconception about heavenly leakage is that the future will not happen if there is a heavenly leakage, but that is not absolute.

For example, if a person who dies of a heart attack a minute later is informed of that future, wouldn’t that future come?

Of course not.

Even if you try to avoid that future, nothing will change, and there is a high possibility that a worse future will come.

As another example, what would happen if you informed me that the killer is hiding behind you and is planning to decapitate you in a minute?

The killer who was listening with him was startled and cut his throat right away.

That’s what heavenly leakage is.

If I had told the Heavenly Demon that I had come out as a destined opponent, aiming to evade the future by leaking heavenly secrets, maybe…

Since then, it seems like he already had a heart for me..

‘Maybe he was taken straight to the basement.’

Still, since we met on the same day, it’s not that I don’t have the heart to go that far, but the impact of what happened in the future should have been a little bigger.

In me, she was already a pre-rapist.

I have nothing to be ashamed of either.

You said you already had a lover, but which country’s commercial morality is to seduce you like that?

No matter how scary a woman she is, her appearance is her appearance, so it was a tremendous ordeal to pass it off with emotions of half excitement and half fear.

“Ha..”

“Why are you sighing again?”

“It’s too hard to live in the world.”

“When was the world easy to live in?”

“That’s a very helpful quote.”

Yes what

When was it easy to live in the world?

I don’t know why I came to the brink of death when I was buried in the fire, but I can’t turn back time.

Now I have to think about how I can stop making the Heavenly Demon her wife.

“…”

Even after thinking about it, I couldn’t help but laugh.

If others saw it, it would probably look like an unlucky guy on the brink of starvation or a huge self-consciousness.

‘The problem is that I’m really full and I’m about to burst to death.’

It would have been better if it was self-conscious.

Holy lady, please tell me that I am overly self-conscious.

[Your eyes were overflowing with hearts? From there, she would have gone straight to the wedding hall if I had sent a little signal that she liked the hero.]

‘Even you, Brutus!!!’

[I was just telling the truth! It’s already a ruined world, so there’s nothing to notice!]

Ah. You’re pissed.

‘…What do you want.’

[Hey..]

‘Except.’

[You haven’t even said the ‘contract’ yet?!]

‘It’s absolutely impossible, so he keeps saying this.’

[Yeah, that’s all my goal!]

‘It’s still too early for that between us.’

[Alternatively, how much progress has to be accumulated before it’s too early?!]

‘Clear the true ending that comes out after the all CG ban?’

[Still, you treat it as a hidden ending..]

‘It’s a sequel to rice cakes.’

[At least do it as a DLC?!]

I feel comfortable with the kind of conversation I can’t have with the women in Moorim.

Even though that woman is also from fantasy, she is not from Earth, but thanks to her hard work, just having a conversation with her was a great comfort.

[Hmm. I studied so hard for the warrior.]

‘I’m impressed that you’re studying another world like that just to kidnap me…’

[Knapped. It was a fair contract.]

‘I was taught that a contract without the consent of a minor’s guardian is invalid.’

[You’re not underage!]

‘But with this look, anyone can see it..’

[Wait a minute!]

He managed to stop just before being dragged into a world-destroying conversation.

Anyway, the chat is over.

‘So why didn’t you come out when I called?’

Now it was her turn to ask why she hadn’t been seen.

From the moment I set foot in the realm of the Demonic Cult, my connection with the saintess was severed.

All connections to the saintess, including the shop window, were cut off and completely disappeared without a trace, to the point where I thought for a moment that there had been no such thing from the beginning.

– Beep beep

[That… Well…]

‘Were you scared of the Heavenly Demon?’

[…

‘…Really?’

It was half a joke, but nothing was said.

[Sorry, instead of expressing that you were scared, could you say that you prepared for an unexpected danger?]

‘…’

[Th-don’t look at me like that! Do you know how easy it is to interfere with another dimension? I don’t know if it’s the main body, but if I ran into a woman like that in the yard where I was barely communicating with the hero…]

‘I haven’t said anything yet.’

[I didn’t say anything, but everything was conveyed..]

The saintess lowered her head with a gloomy expression.

However, I didn’t know when I would meet the Heavenly Demon again, but I was in a situation where I had to secure as many moves as possible, so I had to know what I needed to know.

‘Then shouldn’t I even use the shop window in front of the Heavenly Demon?’

[It’s our first meeting, so I don’t feel like I’m overly prepared, but… But if I open it openly, there’s a high possibility that I’ll feel something strange.]

‘Um…’

Don’t even think about going there and buying something.

By putting it in your head that if you need something, you should buy it in advance.

After coming to such a conclusion, I began to worry about what to buy to escape the dangerous woman’s clutches.

In fact, considering that position, I think it would be more effective to have her cut off her attention to me than to get her out of her grasp.

‘Should I do something unlikable?’

I thought of a way to deliberately do weird things to make me less likeable.

What a man would hate to do to a woman…

For example..

‘Sexual harassment?’

Then wouldn’t he have thought that he had met the wrong person and not have a rational interest in me?

Let’s think.

If you just close your eyes and touch your chest…

…Coming to think of it, then it’s not a problem to drop the favorability, but you have to worry about whether the hair will stick.

If you do well, your liking will increase and your chastity will become dangerous.

If you treat me badly, you should worry about your life.

But should I meet this woman again?

‘…They really tell me what to do.’

I patted my chest, wiping away the tears that leaked out without my knowledge.

It seemed like I wouldn’t have to worry about being bored all the way back.
