Ending Maker Episode 457
SS #37 Kang Yu-jin (10)
There were five children sitting in a pavilion next to the pond.
Yuria is smiling brightly while looking at Eugene.
A girl with dark blue hair who sometimes blushes and smiles, perhaps because of the young man sitting next to her, while her eyes sparkle with curiosity.
A young man with a bold appearance who makes one feel reassured just by looking at him, sitting next to that girl.
Twin siblings standing side by side.
The girl had a mischievous smile on her face despite her elegance, as if she was enjoying the situation itself, while the boy was pouting and glancing at the girl and young man with dark blue hair.
And there was only one red-haired girl standing alone.
She was standing with her arms crossed and her gaze tilted upwards, glaring at Eugene with an extremely haughty expression as if she were measuring a product.
‘Yuria’s friends.’
There were some faces I didn’t know, but most of them were familiar.
This is because they were children who appeared briefly in the DLC that could be purchased after completing the Perfect Happy Ending route in Hero Chronicles 2.
‘The girl with the dark blue hair is Regina Bayer.’
Yuria’s aunt.
Yuder- No, the craftsman’s younger sister.
She looked so cute and lovely in that blue dress that matched her dark blue hair, Eugene thought.
‘As expected, Yuria is the prettiest.’
I’m passing on the young man next to Regina since I’m seeing him for the first time.
And the blonde siblings sitting next to them.
‘Amber and Aiden, right?’
The children of Gail Bayer, the older brother of the craftsman.
The elegant girl is Amber, and the boy who is somehow full of complaints is Aiden.
‘I don’t think it’s because I don’t like it… … Is it because of the young man next to Regina?’
Anyway, as long as Eugene doesn’t become hostile towards himself, it’s okay for now.
And the last one.
A red-haired girl who seems to be focusing on Eugene after Yuriah among those gathered in the pavilion.
She was a girl I had never seen before in the DLC for Hero Chronicles 2, but I knew it the moment I saw her.
‘You’re Lucas and Scarlett’s daughter.’
That would be the case, since it was Mini Scarlett herself who came into being.
She’s pretty, proud, and fresh, but when you actually get to know her, she’s an incredibly affectionate eldest sister.
Moreover, according to the information in the setting, she-
‘Yuria’s best friend… …!’
And they’re not just best friends, they’re actually best friends.
When I thought about it that way, the twisted gazes looking at me didn’t seem entirely hostile, but rather closer to, ‘I’ll find out if you’re a good match for our Yuria!’
‘Okay, let’s cheer up. Cheer up, Kang Yu-jin.’
For once, didn’t the master give us a practical example?
Eugene, who had made up his mind once again, climbed onto the pavilion, and Yuria, who was wearing a clean white dress instead of a pink one today, quickly closed the distance between them as if welcoming them.
“I already told you, right? This is my fiancé, Eugene.”
As Yuria spoke with a bright smile, Regina smiled shyly, perhaps reacting to the word ‘fiancé’ itself, and the elegant Ember and the plump Aiden also looked back at Eugene.
‘As expected, Aiden’s acting like that is because of Regina.’
Eugene didn’t have any particular feelings when he looked at himself.
I was just curious, like, ‘Yuri’s fiancé?’
And there is still one gaze that is sharp and glaring.
Vivian looked Eugene up and down with the face of a stern examiner, and Eugene took a deep breath and said, giving the example of how many times he had practiced with Aunt Natasha.
“I am Kang Yu-jin, Yuria’s fiancée. Please take good care of me.”
Although his voice trembled slightly when he said, ‘Yuria’s fiancé,’ it seemed like a pretty good introduction.
“Hehe, that’s my brother.”
As she said that, Yuria hugged Eugene’s arm, and Eugene tried hard not to react too much.
And then the voices continued.
“I’m Amber Bayer. Nice to meet you. I’m Yuria’s cousin.”
Amber was four years older than Yuria and two years older than Eugene.
Of course, even so, it would have been basic to be polite, but Amber spoke up right away, perhaps out of familiarity or because it was an informal setting.
But is it because Amber is beautiful, or because she has a friendly and elegant smile?
It was a nice greeting from Amber, who was never bad, but was in a good mood.
“I’m Aiden Bayer. Nice to meet you. I’m Yuria’s cousin.”
Aiden’s introduction seemed a bit dry compared to Ember’s – to be exact, it seemed like his mind was elsewhere – but it was passable and not bad.
“I’m Regina Bayer. I’m Yuria’s aunt. And this is my boyfriend… … Ah, no. My, male friend! My, so your male friend? Sir Elwin.”
Regina, who had been blushing and panicking without anyone saying anything and not knowing what to do, barely managed to finish speaking when the young man next to her smiled gently and opened his mouth.
“My name is Elwin S. Paragon. I am Regina’s male friend.”
He was a young man who spoke coolly with a generous face, and even other men thought he was cool.
I think the reason he specifically used the word male friend was to support Regina rather than to tease her.
‘It may seem like a bit of a strange cheer, but.’
Still, Regina seemed to take it as encouragement.
Her cheeks flushed, she wiggled her fingers and spoke with a slightly proud expression.
“Elwin is the prince of the Paragon Kingdom. A true prince.”
Not a prince-like person, but a real, true prince.
Ember laughed again at Regina’s boastful, not-so-bragging boast, Aiden pouted, and Eugene thought.
‘Yuri is also a real true real princess… …!’
Didn’t mom and dad do that too?
Yuria is said to be the most noble child in the Pleiades.
That would be the case, since Yuria wasn’t half-human or half-god.
Just God.
A true child of God, with both parents being gods.
But when he thought about it like that, Eugene suddenly felt ashamed of himself.
This is because while Yuria is truly a child of God, Eugene himself, although a child of an angel and an apostle, felt a bit inferior in terms of status.
Moreover, if you look closely, my father was my father-in-law’s apostle, and my mother was my mother-in-law’s angel.
In other words, if we use a modern analogy, the relationship between Yuria and herself was similar to that between the daughter of the chairman of a large corporation and the son of the chairman’s secretary.
If Cordelia had heard it, she would have scolded the child for talking strangely, but that was what Eugene thought.
And the young man in front of me.
Elwin S Paragon.
A truly cool and wonderful man, even to other men.
‘Muscles are awesome.’
Broad shoulders and muscular arms that looked similar to Regina’s waist.
-What a skinny guy. He’s small. Thin. Frail.
Suddenly, Eugene recalled the words that Count Chase had said.
If Eugene himself were that tall and muscular, he would have hugged Yuri instead of being hugged by Yuri.
I would have protected Yuria from the chimera too.
‘I have to start training right away when I get back.’
There’s a long way to go.
I need to drink all the elixirs that Count Chase gave me and become stronger as soon as possible.
Eugene clenched his fists and steeled his resolve, and Vivian, who had been watching him, narrowed her eyebrows slightly and spoke.
“I’m Vivian Hresvelge. She’s Yuria’s best friend. So I’m asking, what do you like about Yuria?”
It was a sudden attack that followed the greeting.
But Eugene felt it instinctively.
It is an attack that can be sufficiently countered.
Haven’t you already experienced it once?
‘and…….’
Alexei’s teachings.
A crisis is an opportunity, so always be rational and reasonable.
It was just as Alexei said.
If Eugene could just answer Vivian’s question properly, Yuria’s bestie, he would be able to strengthen his own position right away.
‘Because I saw the answer right before that!’
The answer sheet that the craftsman himself showed us.
Eugene mustered up his courage and opened his mouth.
and-
‘Oh, no! It’s impossible!’
Eugene had so many good things about Yuria that he could think of right now, but saying them out loud was a completely different thing.
I’m embarrassed.
It’s embarrassing.
What if Yuria doesn’t like it?
What if other people hear this and think it’s weird?
‘Master… … !’
Eugene realized once again how great his father-in-law was.
And I also realized how much my father-in-law loves his mother-in-law.
‘I still have a long way to go!’
But it was at that very moment.
[Oppa?]
Eugene turned his head in surprise at the sound of Yuria’s voice in his head.
[It’s me, Yuria. I’m speaking to you using message magic. I’ve connected you and I, so you should be able to send me messages, too.]
[Oh, like this?]
[Yes, that’s right. If Vivian’s question is awkward, you don’t have to answer it.]
Yuria smiled brightly as if telling him not to feel burdened, but Eugene, who inherited Hong Yu-hee’s blood, had a gut feeling at that moment.
‘I’m feeling sad!’
I say it’s okay, but it’s disappointing.
So, you absolutely must not just answer with a feeble ‘Okay’.
[You, Yuria!]
[Yes, brother.]
[Yuria-!]
And Eugene conveyed every single thought that came into his head to Yuria without exception.
Although Eugene still had many shortcomings compared to Yuder in terms of expression, his passion was by no means lacking.
[That, that’s enough… … .]
Although Yuria inherited her shamelessness from Yuder, she still had her limits.
With her face completely red, Yuria writhed as if she was about to melt, and Eugene conveyed his thoughts to her even more passionately as if he was going to strike her with the final blow.
And Vivian, who was watching the two people from the side, thought with even more frown.
‘What on earth are they talking about?’
It seems clear that the message is sharing magic.
And as Vivian’s doubts deepened and Yuria’s face began to turn red, so did her neck and chest-
An unexpected and surprising incident was taking place in the mansion.
* * *
“Vivian! Vivian!”
The protagonist with a rather high-pitched voice is Scarlett Hresvelg.
The ‘Queen of Blood’, the second wife of Count Hresvelg and a member of the Ten Swordsmen.
But that wasn’t all her identity was.
She was a contemporary Rogue Master and the mother of nine siblings (although she only had two biological children), including Vivian.
“Scarlett, I asked the servants and it seems they moved towards the pavilion.”
Caesar Hresvelg.
The first wife of the Count Hresvelg family and a contemporary heroine known as the Sea Queen of the South.
Scarlett frowned at the words of her best friend and practically sister.
“Well, I guess there’s nothing I can do. Why are you coming here now? I’ll tell you when I get back.”
It would be bad if an adult intervened while children were playing together.
But then it happened.
Scarlett turned around, shaking her head, and realized that Lucas, her loving husband and father of nine children, was staring intently at a certain spot with a very serious expression on his face.
“Lucas? Is there something there?”
I asked, but got no answer.
It wasn’t that he ignored Scarlett’s words, but rather that he was so focused that he didn’t hear them at all.
‘What’s going on?’
I can’t believe he’s so focused.
But it wasn’t a completely unfamiliar sight.
Lucas would fall into that state every time he picked up a new issue of Built Vine’s Heroes Chronicles.
‘Caesar, let’s go.’
Kaisa nodded at Scarlett’s glance, and the two approached Lucas, who was standing like a statue in front of the table.
“A book? No, a notebook?”
There was a notebook spread out on the table, but it didn’t look like Lucas had opened it on purpose.
Should I say it feels like it was spread out by the wind?
‘What is it about?’
To bring Lucas back to his senses, Scarlett leaned her head on Lucas’ shoulder and read the words written in the notebook.
Although it was my first time seeing it, I noticed a few familiar words.
‘Builtvine Heroes Chronicles… … Fanfic?’
Thanks to Lucas, Scarlett had already read the entire Bildwein Chronicles several times.
The content before my eyes was something I had never seen before, so it was likely a fan fiction written by a reader.
When Scarlett turned to Kaisha as if asking for her consent, Kaisha, who had also become an avid reader of the Bildwein Chronicles thanks to Lucas, nodded.
But it was at that very moment.
“No, it’s not just fanfic.”
Lucas spoke very seriously in a low voice, then lowered his hand and turned a page of his notebook.
“This writing style, these lines… … Could this be… … ?!”
At that very moment.
At that moment, Lucas, the strongest swordsman in the Kingdom of Seilun, the Heavenly Swordsman, and the continent’s biggest fan of the Biltvine Heroes’ Tale, was trying to clarify a certain fact.
“I saw it.”
Suddenly, the black demon Kamael appeared among the crows gathered by the window.
