Chapter 167 – The Heavenly Demon and the Moon Viewing Hall

After the fun time with Xiao-Mei, I was able to hear from Xiao-Mei the location of the Heavenly Demon.

“I heard that your great-grandmother, for some unknown reason, uses the southwest abandoned building, Moon Viewing Hall, as her accommodation her?
“Moon viewing hall? Isn’t that an abandoned building like the Rose Pavilion? I thought you would live happily in the gold class dormitory with the Heavenly Demon’s personality?”

It is one of the random spawn locations for Secret Society events, such as the Moonlight Hall and the Rose Hall.

It is one of the neglected buildings that exist in the academy, and it is a place where ghosts sometimes appear. The only difference from the Rose Pavilion is that it is located on a mountain, not the sea.

‘..The Heavenly Demon dares to go to an abandoned building? The one with the strong desire to show off?’

But considering what I’ve shown lately, I don’t know why I’m staying there. Because this was the first time I had met the Heavenly Demon properly.

As expected, in this world, there are still opportunities and events that I don’t know about yet.

“But where does your great-grandmother live? Anything to see?”
“Uh..Just, he gave me an assignment, but he didn’t tell me the location of the lodging and told me to take the test.”

To Xiao-Mei’s question, I answered with a reasonable reason.

It’s like saying that you’re going to comfort Xiao-Mei, who was depressed because of Heavenly Demon until just now.

“Then I’ll be on my way, Cayenne and I are supposed to check our homework.”
“Yes… Have a good trip, older brother♡”

Being greeted with a soft kiss, I left the gold class dormitory.

‘..It’s a bit late, but will it be okay?’

Time itself is fine. A little over an hour has passed, so it’s enough to say that I didn’t know because I was sleeping.

But will Cayenne, who has no friends of hers, try to show up at the right time to the meeting place when I make an appointment?

‘..I knew it.’

Quickly moving her steps, Cayenne was sitting on a bench near the clock tower where she was meeting and passing the time.

“Sorry, I was late because I was a little sleepy. Did you wait a long time?”
“Huh! Par, your partner is here! I didn’t wait long, so don’t worry!”

I greeted her a little warmly for her apologetic heart her, and Cayenne made her face red in surprise.

What? What’s that bad reaction? It’s not the usual expressionless expression, but it’s really shocking, so it’s even worse.

“…What were you doing? Why are you so surprised all of a sudden?”
“Oh, nothing. Rather, did you find out where Heavenly Demon-nim is?”
“..I heard from Xiaomei. He said he was staying at the Moon Viewing House near the mountain.”

Seeing my lack of eye contact, it was clear that I had probably done something related, but with no proof, I eventually decided to switch the subject.

In the first place, is this guy’s perverted behavior a day or two?

“Shall we go right away, did you buy yokan?”
“Yeah, when I told the Pelkas guild, they distributed everything at the highest level. I didn’t know what flavor I liked, so I brought all of them…”

Cayenne took out more than 10 kinds of yokan from the bag lying next to her.

“Was yokan a snack with so many kinds..?”

Sweet red bean yogaeng, chestnut yogaeng, sweet potato yogaeng, green tea yogaeng, walnut yogaeng, persimmon yogaeng, and even red ginseng yogaeng and blue yogaeng, whose ingredients are hard to understand.

“..I don’t know what these blue yokans are, but I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with this much. Shall we depart?”
“Yes! Partner!”

With Cayenne’s courageous reply, we set off for the dormitory where Heavenly Demon-nim is staying.

“Because I walk like this, it’s like… A picnic. Right?”

…If it hadn’t been for that eerie sound, it would have been a better start.

“If you add one more unlucky sound, it will just fly away with magic.”
“…Sorry.”

Seeing Cayenne’s sullen expression, I felt a little better, and walked towards the dorm with light steps.

*

Cayenne and I were able to reach the Moon View Hall without any problems.

“..By the way, is this really the moon view hall?”
“If you look at the sign posted here…”

However, the condition of the moon view hall, which should have been left unattended, was very strange.

No, the expression strange might be a bit wrong.

“..For a building that has been abandoned for decades, it looks much better than the silver dorms we are staying in?”

Flowers and plants were in full bloom in the garden of the Moon Viewing Hall, and the outer walls of the building were shining like a new building that had just been built.

The lanterns were even lit up as if there were people in each room.

“..Shall we go in?”
“Is that right?”

…Why? The question was not resolved, but at least it was certain that the Heavenly Demon was staying here.

The absolute presence felt inside the building was definitely the status of a strongman possessed by the Heavenly Demon.

-Sureuk.

“..Wow, no squeaking sound, really what is this? Is it new?”

Me and Cayenne opened the new-looking iron door and looked around as we walked through the waxed lobby.

“Those like trophies and certificates are very outdated. It looks like it was here.”
“..It must have been exhibited by students who stayed here in the past.”

The lobby of the Moonlight Hall looked like new, but the certificates, trophies, and portraits of students filling one wall were in a very shabby or rusty state, as if they had been hit by the passage of time.

“…Why did you leave it alone?”
“Yeah, if I touch that, it won’t be the moon view crown in my memory, so I left it alone.”

The Heavenly Demon walked down the stairs talking naturally to us as we looked at the objects displayed on the wall in wonder.

It was no surprise, the Heavenly Demon probably noticed that we were approaching from the moment we saw this building.

“You seem to be in good shape, considering that you ran away while crying earlier. Besides, what is that outfit?”
“Hey, I just wore comfortable clothes to sit down and have breakfast. And no luck!”

The Heavenly Demon was wearing something like a training suit instead of her usual china dress. Although the training clothes here are close to the gym uniforms that feel similar to the academy cadet uniforms.

“What’s going on here anyway? Class ended early, so I thought I was going to die.”

It was clear that the Heavenly Demon, who pursed her lips and grunted, was also sulking as expected.

“The disciples came to see you just because you looked upset.”
“Huh! Do you know that I am a child! And don’t you say there’s no luck!”
“Okay, take this!”
“…What is it?”

I handed the bag Cayenne was carrying to the Heavenly Demon, who insisted that she hadn’t cried.

“You said you were sad because you couldn’t eat today’s yanggaeng? I brought it to lighten the mood.”
“..Hey, yanggaeng? How many of these are there?! Besides, isn’t this the finest yokan that is hard to find!”

Upon opening the bag, the Heavenly Demon widened her eyes like a child and put on a happy expression.

People from the Pelcas Merchant, how on earth did they provide us with good yokan?

‘..I’ll have to at least give Zorba a tip about being stabbed.’

It’s probably the same as asking him to take good care of his son-in-law. I decided to internally accumulate 1 friend point for Zorba.

In the meantime, the Heavenly Demon, who was counting the yokans with joy like a fairy who received chocolate, cleared her throat and tried to show an expressionless face, perhaps realizing that we were in front of us again.

“Huh! I’ve never been lucky or upset, but I’ll treat you to tea for your sincerity, come with me.”
“..You never said you were upset?”
“Be quiet and follow me! Or do you want to take a make-up class today!”
“Teacher said that he would serve tea, so I will gladly accept the offer.”

I bowed my head, bowed politely, and followed the Heavenly Demon back up to the second floor. Cayenne followed me and started walking behind her.

“By the way, isn’t the eatery on the first floor? Why go to the second floor?”
“The room I’m staying in is on the second floor, so why use the restaurant on the first floor?”
“..I don’t think you’re using the whole thing here?”
“Not. I don’t really need that many rooms…And I don’t enjoy it.”

…Isn’t it fun?

I had a hard time understanding what that meant, but as soon as I entered the second floor, I was able to understand the meaning of the word a little.

Like the lobby on the first floor, the second-floor hallway looks like it was completely rebuilt. However, if there is a difference from the first floor…

It was decorated as if people were living there.

The protective spells hanging in the hallway were now made up of old classic magic spells, and the information board next to the door had a name written on it as if someone was staying in that room.

“Here, Room 208, this is the room I am staying in.”
“…”

The information board in room 208 also had the name clearly written on it.

Lin Xiangpei of Taishan Dojo,

And, likewise, Shen Zwei of Taishan Dojo.

“Partner, this is… “
“..Shh.”

I thought I knew what Cayenne would ask, but she quietly followed the Heavenly Demon into the room.

“Okay, you can sit where you feel comfortable. I will serve you refreshments soon.”
“Oh, thank you. Master.”

When the Heavenly Demon left the room to make tea, we sat down and looked around the room. And, as I expected, this room was also very vividly decorated.

It is not a space where the ‘heavenly horse’ of the Commonwealth of China resides, but like a student ‘Lin Xiangpei’.

Besides, the portrait placed on the desk. It was a portrait of a man I had never seen before, but I was 100% sure if I had to guess what kind of person it was.

“..Partner, this is as expected..”
“Perhaps your guess is correct. Cayenne.”

An abandoned dormitory, and a space decorated as if it hadn’t been abandoned. The answer was clear to anyone.

‘..It must have been the place where the Heavenly Demon Shangpei stayed when he went to the academy.’

Only then did I understand. Why did the Heavenly Demon choose to stay alone in such an isolated dormitory instead of living with Xiao-Mei?

‘…In the 4th episode, I also remembered the dormitory life because it was so hard when I was walking around the land of demons.’

I got a little bit of understanding. If you stay in the space of the past, happy memories will come to mind.

“Hey, Artin… “
“Heavenly Demon-nim must have had a lot of memories here. I never thought I would create a space in my memory while decorating even portraits.”
“No, not that… “
“Perhaps, the decorations on the walls of the lobby also wanted to preserve what old alumni and seniors and juniors left behind, right? Heavenly Demon-nim is also quite romantic…”
“Artin! More than that..!”
“..Why do you keep calling me?! He said he would get wet with sensitivity!”

When I showed her nervousness toward Cayenne, who kept tapping me, Cayenne pointed at a place with her fingertips.

“That, that… Isn’t that?”
“What is that, what is that? Why are you making such a fuss…”

As I looked at the direction Cayenne pointed at, I forgot her words.

Under the bunk bed, which Cayenne pointed to. There was a little bit of a book sticking out of it.

However, the border of the book is very familiar, so when you pull the book…

“… Isn’t this a dirty book? That too…He specializes in different races with big breasts..?”

I was able to find more than 10 erotic books hidden under the bed. It was a very familiar book.

These books are a series of erotic books that I collected the hardest right after I came to this world. Because it was “Various breasts”!

“This is an orc special, this is a beast special, this is… A fantasy dwarf special? Why is this precious book here?”
“… Artin?”
“…Kuhm! Why is this strange book here?”

Oops, I made a mistake. The instinct of a collector jumped out and I reacted without knowing it.

When I glanced at Cayenne, Cayenne was looking at me with a very contemptuous expression. Seeing Cayenne’s contempt her for the first time, I broke into a cold sweat without realizing it.

“..No, don’t look at me like that! I really don’t like this!”
“…”
“Really! I just collected a few because I was curious! Something like an elf or a vampire…!”
“…..”

I tried hard to appeal to my normal sexual orientation, but Cayenne’s eyes started to get colder.

It’s too unfair. I just started collecting it because I was curious about the erotic books of another world…!

“Partner, don’t you trust your partner right now?”
“… I’ll believe you. Partner.”

Eventually, after taking out her partner her, Cayenne nodded her head and withdrew her cold eyes from me.

Fortunately, it seems that the sincerity worked through!

“…Looking at Unicor, it doesn’t seem like it.”
“…What did you just say, Cayenne?”
“Nothing.”

Damn, don’t believe me
