‘Your wish has come true.’
I realized this reflexively.
However, Duke Bruedel, whom I was trying to stop, was glaring at me with his sinister eyes.
Oh, I got caught.
“Young lady!”
Klaus called me with a puzzled look.
Duke Bruedel slowly shifted his gaze to Klaus again.
“What kind of situation should we consider this to be, Your Highness?”
Duke Bruedel’s voice was clearly heard through a glass window.
It was as if thinking that space was separate was a hallucination.
Klaus’ mouth stiffened coldly.
There was deep anger in the red eyes.
“That is my question, Duke.”
Fierce gazes met in the air.
There, there. If you two are going to fight with your eyes, please leave me out… … .
While I was thinking that, Duke Bruedel suddenly turned and looked at me.
“Even if that woman has the power of the devil.”
me? I have demonic powers?
‘It’s not me?’
I tried to show my innocence by waving both hands, but Duke Brudel did not even notice my injustice and turned his attention to Klaus.
“Your Majesty, I don’t feel anything… Then, are you a child of God?”
“……Duke, you know something.”
Klaus’ voice sank.
I also opened my eyes wide.
How does Duke Brudel know that Klaus was chosen by God?
Duke Brudel saw my reaction and smiled coldly.
“I see. The devil found God’s child first, lah….”
“I’m not the devil.”
The demon is white, and I am the good possessor!
Duke Brudel clicked his tongue lightly at my protest.
“Don’t be fooled by words like that, Your Majesty.”
“Am I fooled?”
“That woman is on the devil’s side. I have the power to feel the devil’s energy.”
White’s dowsing device in my arms cried loudly.
Duke Brudel frowned lightly.
No, this is my dowsing device.
“Are you telling me to believe what the duke said without any basis?”
“Why is there no basis, Your Majesty?”
Duke Brudel slowly looked around.
“Your Highness must have made a wish to use the power of God to stop time.”
No, that’s what I meant.
Duke Brudel did not give me time to correct myself.
He leisurely stood up and looked around.
A cold gaze fell on me, and a gaze filled with strange heat fell on Klaus.
“There are only three people who can be free from empty wishes with the power of God. Demons made from pieces of God, Elyos… and the child of God, the person concerned.”
“…….”
“Coincidentally, it seems like all three of them are here.”
“The duke is an angel?”
“under.”
As soon as he heard my voice, Duke Brudel frowned.
A shining sword suddenly appeared in his hand.
“……Sword of Radiance.”
Klaus muttered lowly in a pained voice.
Duke Bruedel nodded and pointed his sword towards me.
No, what kind of angel is so aggressive?
Are all the benevolent and tolerant angels dead?
“Don’t be deceived by that devil’s voice, Your Majesty. Aren’t you the one who accepts and carries out God’s will?”
“Elena Seves is my chosen one. Duke, do not insult my choice.”
“I don’t mean to disparage Your Highness’s choice. It is a characteristic of the demon race to shed the most perfect creations of God. It is natural that you find her attractive.”
Just hearing this, it seems like I’m using some kind of super charm spell to manipulate Klaus.
In reality, I’m being dragged around by Klaus, right?
However, even if I protested, it was obvious that Duke Bruedel would not even pretend to listen, so I kept my mouth shut.
Instead, he crossed his arms and watched the confrontation between the two with a very dissatisfied face.
Let’s see how far the self-proclaimed angel’s delusions go!
“I can also understand your embarrassment at not knowing how to encounter something like this. However, since you know that you are a child of God, you cannot hide everything.”
“Does this mean you will answer my questions sincerely?”
“If there’s any answer I can give you.”
Klaus bit his lip.
A slight confusion appeared on his face as well.
“Then first, I need to explain what the duke did just now.”
“Oh, you mean this?”
Duke Brudel waved his hand lightly.
The collapsed space, colored dark red, was restored to normal in an instant.
He opened his mouth as if he was annoyed.
“I’ve told you several times not to disturb me when I’m alone, but there are some stupid people who can’t even keep that simple thing.”
There was deep displeasure and disdain in his voice.
“When you enter this room, I set up a defense-type magic to activate as soon as you enter. It is a simple new method that mixes confusion and hallucinations to disrupt your memories. Of course, it is a low-level defense-type magic that will not work properly on your Majesty, who is a child of the devil and god over there. ”
“Why did you create defense magic here?”
“I don’t know if you know, but the Elyos and Demons who appear in the human world cannot use all of their power. I have a relatively wide range of movement, but if I do not regularly contact the heavenly world and receive its power, there is a risk that my true body may become unstable. .”
“So you were receiving power by contacting heaven?”
“That’s correct. As expected, Your Highness’s insight is excellent.”
Duke Brudel smiled and nodded.
“While my soul is in the heavens, if this human body is attacked by a human being controlled by a demon, it will be difficult. That is why I had no choice but to use this technique. If the heavenly being is attacked by a demon, humans could be in danger.”
Doesn’t it feel like he’s saying this while glaring at me?
It’s unfair.
I only made a wish to be in a relationship with the Demon King, but I never planned to charm Klaus and manipulate humans to kill angels, right? I have never even thought about the destruction of humanity.
‘Just stay still. Being able to charm Klaus seems pretty good… … .’
I was lost in meaningless thoughts for a moment, but came to my senses when I heard Klaus’ voice.
“Then what prevented the treatment of Violet Disease?”
“I understand that you think I prevented the cure, but I couldn’t trust that devil.”
Duke Bruedel looked at me for a moment and then continued.
“The reason I came to believe in you who came with the devil is because I realized that you are a child of God. If I had known that in advance, I would have let you do as you did.”
“Are you going to say that it is also Elena Sebes’ fault for blocking the medicine sent from the imperial family to various places? That’s a very convenient excuse.”
“majesty.”
Klaus’s voice was mixed with a chuckle.
Duke Bruedel’s expression hardened.
‘Good job, Klaus!’
When he’s an enemy, he’s obnoxious, but when he’s on our side, he’s reassuring!
“I can’t explain that right now.”
“now?”
“Yes, but when the time comes, Your Highness will know what I have in mind.”
“I’m really curious when that will be.”
A hint of interest crept into Klaus’ voice.
Duke Bruedel nodded as if he was satisfied.
“I believed that your highness would understand what I meant. Don’t be fooled by that devil anymore.”
“but.”
Klaus interrupted Duke Brudel.
“I think the only time I will be with you is when you become as attractive as Elena Seves.”
“majesty.”
“I heard your explanation well. Call me back when I can tell you everything.”
After saying that, Klaus walked away from the duke without hesitation.
The Duke’s cold glare was directed at me.
The Duke’s family, which had been in chaos, returned to its usual appearance as if it had never happened before.
The castle wall, which had turned red, turned into a strong stone wall again, and the sky, which had been dyed bright red, returned to the black night sky.
We asked various people, but it seemed like we were the only ones who remembered the strange change that had occurred a while ago.
“I think everyone just thought they were scolded for manipulating their memories in this way and moved on.”
“It is certainly difficult to cause such widespread oblivion with human magic.”
“Then is he really an angel?”
Klaus groaned lightly at my question.
“But even if he is an angel, that doesn’t explain anything important.”
“That’s right. I haven’t heard any explanation as to why the violet disease was such a big issue in the North or why the medicine for the violet disease was hidden.”
“Besides, we don’t know his purpose.”
I nodded.
“Neither the Elyos nor the Demons tell their stories enough. No matter how much they say it’s banned….”
“If what the demon next to you says is true, we have no choice but to find out.”
“If that’s true.”
I thought of White, a demon with the face of a young boy.
Why is White by my side? What is White’s purpose?
Why did the demons raise a large army in their previous life and try to bring destruction to this world?
And why aren’t we doing that now?
Numerous questions ran through my mind.
But there were no questions I could answer now.
As my expression darkened, Klaus lightly patted my shoulder.
“Are you paying attention to what the duke said earlier?”
“It’s not like that. I’m just thinking a lot.”
“A young lady is a young lady. There is no need to think twice about what he said.”
“Well, I guess the Elyos are particularly stronger. Just looking at the power coming out of the dowsing detector, they concluded that I was an Elyos.”
“I meant it as a compliment for being attractive.”
Klaus rolled his eyes and smiled.
It was a friendly voice.
“Even so, I thought about saying something because he kept ignoring her, but I didn’t want to watch her and that guy talk, so I left it as is. I felt sorry.”
“Well, if I had talked to the duke, I would have spilled strange information for no reason. It’s okay. I can understand why you are wary of me opening my mouth.”
“……Young lady.”
“yes?”
“……ha.”
Klaus suddenly buried his forehead in his palms and began to feel pain.
Why is that person acting like that all of a sudden?
