Chapter 642
Scarlett was surprised by herself after bathing with the demon king.
It was the first time in Scarlett’s life that she had swearing.
So I couldn’t help but be surprised.
He said something he would never have said if the demon king was in front of him.
That’s why he notices himself thinking that the person in front of him is not the demon king but Reinhardt.
No matter how you look at it, nothing has changed much from Reinhardt in his Temple days.
Other than that he became more of a bully, it seemed to be the same.
Of course, even during the Temple days, he was afraid of Reinhardt.
To be precise, it was a mixture of longing and fear.
But in the end, Scarlett couldn’t understand this situation at all.
finally at this moment.
why me
What am I?
Just as Scarlett was confused because the situation was not in order, it was the same on Reinhardt’s side.
It was enough for Scarlett to know that this situation was bizarre and that Reinhardt knew that Scarlett couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
Aside from all other emotions, Scarlett could definitely feel it.
That the Demon King is very impatient.
While trying to calm Scarlett down somehow, she kept looking out the window.
“good… … . No, it’s not nice, ask me quickly. I know you can’t believe me just because I say something. I’ll tell you as much as possible. I’ll tell you everything… … .”
“no.”
Scarlett is embarrassed and afraid.
Slowly calming her surprised heart, Scarlett took several deep breaths.
However, I asked about the cat first, ignoring everything else, because I was most curious about it.
But there was no need to ask any other questions.
“I said brazen as a pervert, I didn’t say I didn’t trust you.”
“… … uh?”
I was shocked, shocked, and scared.
But when it comes to whether or not you don’t believe it, Scarlett isn’t the one who doesn’t believe it.
The day the gate situation was opened.
Scarlett was not there.
but.
different place.
The dungeon where the demon king was imprisoned.
“Obviously, I remember.”
Scarlett clearly remembered the appearance of the demon king, who expressed all the truth with sadness at that time.
In case the demon king might use the demon, Bertus interrogated Reinhardt with Scarlett.
Neither the emperor, nor Saviolin Tana, nor Scarlett believed all the words of the demon king at that time.
I hoped for peace
I wanted to save everyone.
knew the future
All the words that sounded like the toro of a lunatic muttering.
Even the demon king at that time who said I made the world.
“I believe in you.”
Scarlett clearly remembered.
* * *
Those who know the truth are silent because they know the truth.
Scarlett knew the truth like that, but at the time, she was one of those who dismissed it as nonsense.
But I know that those empty and sad eyes, as if I lost everything, were no longer disguises, but the truth.
Even the demon king told me to kill myself before everything went wrong if you didn’t believe me.
At that time, if the king’s head was cut off and hung on the street as the king said, wouldn’t the gate situation have happened? that is now unknown.
However, I know that the gate situation would not have happened if I had believed the demon king’s words and released him.
I know that the despair and sadness I felt from the demon lord were not disguised, but were what they seemed.
Scarlett knows that the demon king’s words, which were considered lies at the time, are all true.
I also know about Akasha.
But even if Scarlett believed the words of the demon king, nothing could be changed.
I was just there according to the needs of important people.
And he is one of those people who has been silent because he knows that there is no point in telling people the truth after everything has happened.
Scarlett did what she could.
Silently, he believed that killing monsters and saving people was the best thing.
So, Scarlett didn’t say anything about the demon king and just did what she had to do.
Because it wasn’t his domain other than letting people know the truth.
While mourning the existence of the demon king and sympathizing with him.
He was just where he was supposed to be.
So Scarlett had no reason to ask about things like the gate incident in the first place.
because you already know
There is no need for the demon king to tell Scarlett that she will find it difficult to trust me.
Because I already believe.
It’s just that believing in the demon lord and fearing the demon lord are two different things.
“No way, I thought I came here to get revenge on you… … Did you?”
“that… … . yes… … .”
Maybe he came to get revenge on the person who didn’t trust me back then.
The Demon King may have a vengeance on those who did not believe in him because the world has become like this because people did not believe in him, and Scarlett is one of them.
It is only then that he realizes why Scarlett believed in him but trembled that she might be killed.
“Why am I doing this? It was only natural that you didn’t trust me then. I don’t think so, and I don’t resent it.”
“Yes… … . okay… … .”
Scarlett couldn’t help but know that she wasn’t holding on to anything like resentment from the way I threatened her with why I was killing you.
Reinhardt is still there.
It’s a demon king, but it’s not like a demon king.
It’s still just a person who doesn’t have many cases.
It’s still equally embarrassing.
Regardless of what you believe, you probably aren’t an important person.
why did you come
Why are you asking me if I saw my friends?
Reinhardt was at a loss as to how to convince Scarlett, but was taken aback when he realized that he didn’t really need to convince her.
Scarlett was just too surprised. And she just needed time to calm down.
There was no need to tell the story line by line. It’s a story I’ve heard before.
Scarlett just needed time to calm down.
“Because I’ve calmed down a bit now. If you could tell me slowly what’s urgent… … .”
“for a moment.”
Just as they were about to have a proper conversation, Reinhardt’s expression hardened terribly when he checked the window.
“I don’t think there will be time to talk.”
What the hell did he see? Reinhardt drew the curtains roughly.
“yes… … ?”
“Thank you and I’m glad you believe in me. Let’s do this from now on. I’ll tell you everything later.”
Reinhardt looked straight into Scarles’ red eyes.
It’s like never forget.
“From now on, never leave me.”
“… … yes?”
Somehow, the strange confession-like words made Scarlett lose her senses.
“You understand? Whatever happens, stick with me. just keep that in mind No matter who tries to separate me from you, I will never let you go. Answer me quickly if you know.”
“yes? yes… … . Ah yes. that… … .”
Are you trying to separate it?
Scarlett soon learned what Reinhardt’s sudden words meant.
– Shook!
Suddenly, Reinhardt gets smaller.
-Aug
“… … .”
It was meant to be taken with you wherever you go.
To believe is to believe.
I don’t know what the situation is, but I can guess that Reinhardt came suddenly to help rather than harm him.
however.
Scarlett felt sick to her stomach at the sight of the black cat’s bright eyes and Reinhardt’s dirty eyes.
“Upset… … .”
-Aye!
Scarlett felt even more upset when she saw the cat patting its front paws as if I liked it.
and.
soon.
-smart
The sound of someone knocking on her door made Scarlett feel all the muscles in her body tense.
– Scarlett, it’s me.
It was Ludwig’s voice.
* * *
If a cat has a facial expression, it must be a very serious face right now.
I missed the timing, so I was talking gibberish, but I couldn’t share a little bit of what I had to say.
The demon king has become a cat that ate honey, so he can’t open his mouth anymore.
However, it is clear that the demon king had no intention of harming Scarlett, and Scarlett also felt sorry for Reinhardt.
Why did the demon king come here?
and.
Why is Ludwig here?
-smart
– Scarlett? Could you please open the door for me?
Scarlett felt a strange fear seep through her body.
It is clear that things he did not know were intertwined and spread in a place he did not know.
Scarlett looks at the cat.
-nod
As if it could be opened, the cat nodded.
– Click
When I opened the door, Ludwig was there.
Ludwig, who still has a bandage on his right arm and has unmanaged hair growing wildly, looks much different than before.
There is Ludwig, who has somehow become sharper and has a much darker impression.
“Ludwig… … ?”
“Oh, there was.”
Ludwig smiled lightly.
I couldn’t hear what was going on. So Scarlett knows that now is the moment she has to pretend her composure.
“I also knew where you were going.”
Ludwig’s words make Scarlett feel uncomfortable.
He is a superhuman whose sense of humor is incomparably developed with that of an ordinary person.
There was no way that such Ludwig could not have felt the presence on the other side of the wall.
“I wondered if I should go out to find it.”
If he hadn’t opened the door, Ludwig would of course have known that he hadn’t opened it on purpose while he was inside.
no wonder.
Scarlett had no choice but to know with a few words that Ludwig was telling an obvious lie.
Now you have to pretend to be calm.
As long as you don’t know what’s going on and haven’t heard anything, you have to act like you don’t know anything.
You have to pretend nothing happened.
“Ludwig too… … . Are you back?”
“No, not like that. I will be back soon.”
Ludwig nods and points outside.
“The weather is nice. Shall we go for a short walk?”
Scarlett would normally have agreed to Ludwig’s soft smile.
Although not that close to Ludwig, in the end, all members of the Temple Royal class are like comrades-in-arms.
Jeon Woo-ae, who said they crossed the line together, is different from ordinary friendship.
All of them are very dear to each other.
Even if you’re not intimate enough to know each other’s everything, you can die for each other.
Comradeship is, therefore, a very strange form of friendship.
And Ludwig risked his life to save Scarlett.
As a result, Delphine lost her life, and Ludwig should have lost his right arm as well.
Of course, Scarlett saved Ludwig first before that, but in the end, it is a relationship in which each other owes each other their lives.
Because comrades are like that.
I can’t help but be afraid of this unknown situation.
“sure. It’s good.”
However, Scarlett is dear to Ludwig.
Just like all my other friends.
Still, you can die for Ludwig.
So there is nothing I can’t do for a walk.
“Yeah, but wait a minute.”
“huh.”
Scarlett still didn’t forget what the demon king said.
Ludwig thought that Scarlett went into the room for a moment, then saw Scarlett walking out of the room holding the black cat in her arms.
“ah… … . Are you here?”
Ludwig smiled at the black cat as if it was a face he hadn’t seen in a long time. Scarlett twitched the corners of her mouth, fearing that she might misunderstand.
I feel very uncomfortable because I know what I am holding right now.
“Oh, and the cat… … ? Go, buy together, buy… … . walk?”
Scarlett tries to say something so that there is no sense of incongruity, but her tongue tangles.
-Cow!
Fortunately, Scarlett was cut off by the cat’s shrill cry.
Even if Ludwig didn’t know, Scarlett fully understood the meaning of the cry.
It means shut up.
“If you look at him, you can see that he only hangs out with girls.”
Ludwig looks at the black cat with a meaningful smile.
-Yes
The black cat desperately avoided Ludwig’s gaze.
