Chapter 226 – Chapter 11 – Confession

Hello, my name is Han So-yeon.

I am a disciple studying at the Volcano Sect.

I don’t carelessly talk about it because it’s burdensome, but in fact, my teacher is a great person.

Swordsman, one of the heroes of the faction. It’s Shin Yoo-wol.

She is a grateful benefactor and like a new mother to me who saved me from wandering alone after losing my parents on the battlefield and took me personally.

Actually, my birth parents didn’t like me very much.

So even when I was left alone on the battlefield, I was able to not wait for the two of you.

Maybe you didn’t have time to take care of me.

But that’s okay.

It was thanks to him that I met Master.

“Huh~ Heh~”

Today, after the hard training, I wash my body.

In the old days, washing every day was unimaginable, but it’s different here.

It is just as important to wipe off sweat after training as it is to practice.

Thanks to you, these days, washing your body before going to bed at the end of the day is a pleasure every day.

You can wash your body every day with warm water, not cold water, and wash your face. Is there any reason not to do it?

After taking a pleasant bath today, I lie in bed and wait for tomorrow to come.

After meeting Master, every day is just a happy day.

I closed my eyes hoping that tomorrow would be a better day than today

– Heung-geon

“…To?”

When I opened my eyes, I saw an unfamiliar floor and a huge amount of blood splattered on it.

Did someone die here?

As I tried to get up with such a question, I felt my hands tied behind my back.

In the sudden situation, I first got my balance and somehow straightened up, and in front of my eyes, a stranger was looking at me with bewildered eyes.

“…I… Who… Are you…?”

The owner of the gaze was a boy who looked the same age as me.

Unlike the kids you usually see in Hwasan, they are skinny and look cute, so I wondered if they were girls, but first of all, the gender seemed closer to the boys.

It was definitely the first time I saw him, but…

– Pounding

For some reason, my heart started pounding on its own.

* * *

“…Ha.”

I woke up clutching my pounding head.

My mental state was about 80% gone because of the Heavenly Demon, so I lay down on the bed without thinking about anything, and thanks to that, my fatigue was relieved a little.

I couldn’t help but feel my head pounding from the sudden stress.

“Do you still have a headache?”

“It seems like that.”

“Come on. Stay like this for a little while longer. I’ll use a spell to clear your head.”

– Mulkeong

Master, who naturally approached me and provided me with a pillow before going to bed, led me back to the pillow, and before Master’s magic took effect, I felt my mental healing a little.

After all, this chest is a scam.

Does it make sense that even though I’ve been like this for over 10 years, my charm hasn’t diminished at all?

-Sueuh..

“You’ll be fine now…”

“…Thank you.”

Even after clearing my head thanks to Master’s magic, I remained in that posture without speaking for about 10 minutes.

“…Well! Let’s go to work now.”

After recovering my condition to normal, I got out of bed and came out of the room.

– Jump!

“Good morning!”

“Oh, are you awake?”

“…Does it seem to be getting better?”

There were only Yeo So-cheon and Dang A-yeong in the living room, but the swordsman and his disciple were nowhere to be seen.

“..Two of them?”

“The swordsman is washing. You couldn’t even wash it because it was tied up for a while. Even if you reveal your true colors in the middle anyway, the swordsman said you’d do it because you can overpower it enough.”

“I guess so.”

I’m sure it’ll be embarrassing to have it tied up for a few days.

Still, since he is a soldier, he won’t get sick easily, but wouldn’t it be that people wash often so that they don’t get sick easily?

The smell… Is not polite, so let’s not talk about it.

“I think the nobleman who was dying until yesterday has recovered now? As soon as I tried to ask something, he went into his room alone and collapsed.”

“Are you worried?”

“Nu, who said he was worried! I’m angry because he’s a mountain of things I’m curious about, but he’s gone!”

I am now used to dealing with Yeosocheon.

It would have been nice to just be honest from the beginning, but I can’t do that.

She said that, but she had a weak mentality, so if she went out strong, she might cry, so she was a difficult child to deal with.

I wonder if someone is not a kid.

She’s only 1cm taller than me. She’s doing all kinds of campaigning, but her personality is more like a child than mine.

He is several times older than me..

-Sereung

“Now, wait a minute! This is a real knife!”

“Then is it real or fake?”

“Oh, this man is trying to kill her husband-to-be!”

“Quit..”

It was scary to notice even if I just thought about it because the sense of being unmanned and that of a woman were working at the same time.

No, isn’t it too much to read a monologue without being a saint?

[Did you call?]

‘Get out.’

[It’s been a while since I’ve seen you!]

What is too much while always living in my head.

‘If you come up with a way to stop the Heavenly Demon, I will make you happy.’

[You talk to someone like a puppy! And it’s never easy! Even if I descend, there is no guarantee that I will be able to defeat her!]

‘Who wants to solve it by force? There are many magic tools. Find something that can help.’

[Ugh.. If you’re at that level, resistance is strong, so there won’t be many things that work.. I’ll try to find it first..]

‘Do you know? I wonder if they’ll grant me a wish just because I’m pretty.’

[I’ll be back soon!]

“By the way, give me some food. Preferably, it will be a hangover.”

After sending off her saintess appropriately, she naturally ordered a meal in reality.

“What’s the matter? You do the dressing.”

“…I’m starting to think that I might really pierce my liver if I push alcohol into it now.”

The amount he drank was not much, but his body condition was not good even with empty words.

My mind has recovered a bit, but my body isn’t getting better that quickly.

“I thought about it. I knew you were very strong against alcohol, but I was a little worried from the point of view of watching it. I wonder if a man who is not a soldier can drink like that.”

“Because I drink stronger than Sojeo?”

“Yeah, that’s right. You won a drinking bet before.”

“If you like alcohol that much, shouldn’t you pour yourself a drink for your master?”

“Come to think of it, I’ve never poured alcohol for Master. Bring me a glass. I’ll pour it right away.”

The atmosphere was very lively, perhaps because the number of women continued to increase.

It’s this much of a commotion even without the swordmaster and his apprentice.

‘They might not be that loud because they don’t talk much.’

Anyway, we have become such a big family.

Although the way Master joined was unexpected, it was still within the scope of what was expected of Master.

Sword Master’s disciple… I’ve nailed it down as not interested, so it won’t develop into that kind of relationship.

‘And I already have a relationship like that with the swordsman, so how could the disciple do that too?’

Didn’t you say In this world, masters and disciples are almost parent-child relationships.

It’s not something I would say after mingling with such a master, but anyway, there was no possibility that way either.

Sword Master and his apprentice are completely from this world, so they will have that awareness, so I’ll just have to be careful.

And..

‘I’ll have to tell you.’

I’m going to tell you about the Heavenly Demon at this point.

I thought about it in my sleep and thought it would be better to say it now.

I’m sorry that I’m putting more pressure on you when you’re already fighting a big enemy called Blood Religion, but isn’t it harsh to announce new facts after defeating Blood Religion?

And, unlike blood bridges, the Heavenly Demon’s purpose is not to destroy the world.

Do you know Let’s talk well and part well.

‘…It’s kind of like talking to wives about things like this.’

It didn’t seem like he was hiding it forever.

It would be better to talk in advance and work out a solution together.

…Because if the Heavenly Demon wants to fail, I just have to sacrifice myself.

“Ah, you woke up too. Were you eating?”

“Oh, good night!”

In the meantime, Sword Master came out with a student with wet hair.

All the people who need to hear this are gathered.

“Come to think of it, Swordsman hasn’t eaten yet either. Do you want to eat?”

“I’m fine. So-yeon only asks for her share.”

– Clap clap!

“Now, pay attention!”

I clapped my hands and focused the eyes of the people around me, and after confirming that everyone was looking at me, I opened my mouth.

“You probably have a lot of questions about what happened yesterday, everyone.”

“…”

“As everyone already knows, the woman who came to visit yesterday is the Heavenly Demon of the Demonic Cult. Everyone knows that I went to the Demonic Cult the other day, right?”

“I didn’t know.”

“I wish I knew by now.”

I ignored Master’s objections and continued talking.

“I didn’t say it in detail at the time… It was the Heavenly Demon that I met when I went to the Demonic School. It was the Heavenly Demon who called me in the first place. In fact, contrary to what I was worried about in the beginning, things went pretty well. They didn’t ask for anything strange, the personality was pretty good, and the Heavenly Demon also I must have liked alcohol quite a bit, so my hobbies overlapped. The problem came next.”

-Gulp

I heard someone swallowing saliva.

Maybe it was my voice.

Because I was very nervous.

“Somehow, I read the heavenly message about the opponent of the Heavenly Demon’s destiny… I was there.”

“…Yes?”

“What?”

“Huh?”

A reaction similar to what was expected.

I took a deep breath and opened my mouth

“…I’m the Heavenly Demon’s fateful partner.”

It was expected that everyone would go into a frenzy after my words were over.
