Chapter 59 – 59. Reason

John opened his eyes and looked at the empty seat next to him. He was in an empty seat next to him without anyone else, but there were certain signs that someone had left.

As soon as he woke up, Yohan lifted up the sheet soaked in love juice and the blanket, and immediately took the two of them and headed to the laundry room. There, he started doing laundry with Evangeline’s washing machine.

This washing machine powered by magic power can be used by anyone with magic power. The witch’s apprentice, John, was no exception.

The washing machine, which quickly removed the liquid from the sheets and blankets while running with a loud noise, stopped working within a few minutes.

Knowing that that meant that the cleaning was over, Yohan took out the duvet right away. Hwaaak- The dirty smell left in the washing machine, that is to say, the smell of love juice came through.

‘I’m in trouble again because I’m in charge of this…….’

Yohan remembered the indecent act of Evangeline the other day. After her sex, she went away for hours, unable to control herself.

With her moaning and climaxing through her morning sun up, past noon, and into the afternoon, John had no choice but to leave her alone with her all night.

She had been climaxing all day, but it was late at night when she stopped climaxing, and Yohan had no choice but to fall asleep in a room covered with her master’s love juice and smell.

‘I guess he woke up soon.’

If an ordinary human had sprinkled water like that, he would probably have died from lack of moisture. And witches, who are much stronger than normal humans, were no exception.

Worried about her, Yohan sneakily grabbed a glass of water and headed to her room. I carefully knock on the door, and before I can open my mouth, I hear a cracked voice from inside.

—…… Leave it there and go away.
“Yes, Master.”

Just hearing the sound of her throat cracking would give you an idea of ​​how thirsty she must have been. It’s a big deal to climax all day long, so Yohan, who thought he should eat health food today, moved to catch chickens in the yard.

* * *

“Yo, perverted witch and apprentice.”
“Puheuuuuu-!”

Evangeline, who was sitting in the living room eating, spewed out the water she was drinking when she heard Margaret come out of her room.

Fortunately, she spewed water and at the same time used magic to prevent the water from splashing out in all directions, so it’s a shame.

Quickly wiping her lips, Evangeline glared at Margaret and opened her mouth.

“Well, what does that mean? A sudden change or something….”
“How many times can you climax all day? I’m going to break it, I’m going to break it.”
“Hey-! I have a kid…… !”
“Beatrice? You can’t even hear us anyway because of the curse.”

Evangeline quickly chose Beatrice as her shield, but Margaret brought up Beatrice’s curse and realized that it was of little use.

While Beatrice tilted her head at the adult witches pointing at her, Evangeline, realizing that there was no way to stop those rotten snouts from fluttering, only lowered her head and trembled.

“Therefore? How was it? Didn’t you kill me?”
“…… Noisy.”
“Now you know why I did it with my pupil, right?”
“—That’s because I still haven’t forgiven you.”

Evangeline glared at Margaret and widened her eyes, wondering where the witch who had been trembling with shame had gone. The moment Margaret slightly stepped back, Evangeline snorted and turned her head.

“…… Well, it’s a bit difficult to do alone. I’ll close my eyes when I’m not around.”

“Hey, let’s do it. Seeing yesterday, it seemed like the night was very shabby. How is it? Can this sister tell me a little bit?”

“Who is your sister? Are you going to become a teacher just because you were a few days early?”

“Oh, yes. I’m not a crappy pussy like you, so my teaching probably won’t help.”

It must have been the flow of trying to get along, but soon after seeing the two growling again, Yohan put on an absurd expression.

In the midst of such absurdity, Beatrice, who was quietly eating a chicken, pulled on Johan’s sleeve.

“What are you two talking about……?”
“Ah…… It’s a trivial story.”
“Okay…… ?”

And John intentionally hid from Beatrice what the two were talking about. The child had to be protected. Even if she is actually a witch several times older than John himself…….

* * *

After a brief lull, Evangeline and Margaret continued their meal without saying anything. The first time the two of them opened their mouths was towards the end of the meal, when they were talking about John.

“By the way John, are you going to keep doing that?”
“If it is…….”
“It’s the instructor’s job. Common sense doesn’t make sense for a witch’s apprentice to teach paladins, right?”

Hearing Evangeline’s words, Yohan nodded. But it was necessary to some extent, if not necessarily.

“I have no intention of continuing.”
“Then?”
“Once you have enough credit… It means quitting.”
“Credit, why do you need credit?”

Seeing Evangeline tilting her head as if she couldn’t understand why, Yohan smiled and explained the reason why he needed credit step by step.

“For now, Master. How long have you not actually thought about being in a place like this?”
“A place like this…… How nice this place is! I worked hard to find this seat!”
“However, it is far from civilized life. Don’t you want to live with other people, too?”
“Isn’t it? I don’t need everything as long as I have John?”

Like a child crying, Evangeline began to cry. But John knows that’s not the case.

The reason she needs herself is because he is the one who can break her curse.

Witches are people and humans, and humans are social animals. There was no way he would like the daily life of being alienated and hated by the curse.

Maybe she just got used to it. Just as water droplets pierce a rock, it has been eroded little by little over hundreds of years…….

“Then not for Master, but for me. I want to live in a more civilized place than this.”

“…… Yes, what John There is no reason not to go to the city if you so desire. So? What does that have to do with you being a paladin instructor?”

“The first is that I can make people think that a Paladin instructor cannot be a witch follower, and the second is that I can change the perception of Paladins in the long run.”

Upon hearing John’s words, Evangeline immediately tilted her head, not understanding. She was smart and was good at seeing and grasping phenomena, but she was inexperienced in interpreting the relationship between people.

Maybe it happened because I couldn’t interact with other people because of the curse I had. Because people can’t learn what they haven’t experienced.

Reluctantly, Yohan began to unravel and explain the future he envisioned.

“So…… Like Ludwig and Elesis, not all paladins are bad people.”

Ludwig fell in love with the witch he went to kill and even gave birth to a child, and Elesis tracked him down, but he did not unconditionally hate or attack the other person because he was a witch.

It was a stark contrast to the paladin John saw on the city streets during the witch follower execution ceremony. He was entrusted with the position of instructor for apprentice paladins, and he realized the reason only belatedly.

“Those who lost their families to the witch… Or those who have been brainwashed by the church for a long time. Most of those people tremble at the sight of witches, and become the kind of bad paladin people commonly think of.”

“…… In the end- you mean most of them become bad paladins, right?”

“No, this is just my opinion…… There are probably many paladins like Ludwig inside the church.”

Ludwig had achievements worthy of being called the father of paladins. This is proved by the fact that even though he married a witch and gave birth to a child, neither he nor his children were destroyed.

And if such a person can fall in love with a witch, others can do it too.

“I’m just holding my breath because I don’t know one thing.”
“What is that…?”
“The fact that there are witches as pretty and kind as Master!”

I said it in a joking tone, but this was not a joke, it was the truth. So far, the church has been on a family hunt to see all the witches because the damage done by a few crazy witches is so great.

This strategy of pushing the uncountable population was more effective than expected, and succeeded in catching or killing countless witches, just as the Chinese destroyed sparrows.

However, if we recall the nature of the church, we would not be able to persecute witches forever.

‘Love your enemies.’

Giving the right cheek to an enemy who slapped the left cheek.
Mercy and love.
That was the essence of the church.

“Very little, but if I change the perception of paladins like this…….”

A very distant future. So, by the time John grew old and passed away at an early age, the era of witches and the church living together might have arrived.

However, Margaret, who was quietly listening to the story from the side, raised her hand.

“Here, there you are. Disciple.”
“Yes?”
“That’s just, wouldn’t it be quicker for the disciple to say that he’s going to eat all the witches?”
“…… Yes?”
“Yeah, the reason why witches live alone and are persecuted is mostly because of that curse- My disciples eat all the witches called witches, so if the curse disappears, witches will not only have no reason to run rampant, but they won’t be able to distinguish witches in the first place…….”

Hearing her words, Yohan inadvertently nodded.
Seeing him nod, Evangeline glared at him with a very scary look.
Seeing those eyes, John quickly opened his mouth.

“No, absolutely not.”

If I did that, I would be torn limb from limb in three days.
It felt so intuitive.
