111 – Eve (3)

Eve came and dawn came.

Harin, the eldest son of the Ross family, frowned as he drank wine.

“Insolent guy.”

Eve’s guest passing by in my mind.

Someone you have never heard of is interfering with your plans.

Of course, it doesn’t really bother me much, but it makes me angry that a guy who isn’t even a nobleman talks back to me.

“Whoa. Let’s calm down.”

Harin calms down with a shallow sigh.

Although unexpected variables appeared, it is still expected.

Isn’t he the Elric that the Demon King is wary of?

I was wondering if Elric was in disguise, so I checked to see if he was in disguise. Fortunately, he said he didn’t know anything and was going crazy on the front lines right now.

So, even if there are some variables, it will be possible to deal with Eve if we follow the plan.

And.

‘The family also becomes mine.’

As Harin drinks sweet wine, she briefly imagines having a family name.

-Wow!

Suddenly, a vibration rang out from the communication crystal ball.

Let’s check who it is.

“Okay. “Why did you contact me, Kind?”

He must have been a member of the Demon King’s army that attacked his father, Shinji.

Kind answers his question.

-I contacted you in case there were any variables.

“You don’t believe me like that?”

-It’s not like that. It’s just that the Demon King told me to ask in case he didn’t know. All operations that were thought to have been successful so far have ended in failure.

If it’s the devil’s order, you can’t refuse it.

Harin slowly opened his mouth.

“It is progressing as planned. “There are just a few variables.”

-Variable?

From Noble mtl dot com

“Eve brought two guests.”

-Could it be that they are the people of interest that the Demon King was talking about?

“That’s not it. Just by looking at their appearance or their energy, they were not such strong people. It seemed like he was just a smart acquaintance. Still, I’m asking just in case you don’t know.”

He slowly closes his eyes.

Soon, he asks a question.

“Are you sure that the battlefield Elric and the Demon King mentioned are there?”

-Yes. It is certainly. It is said that up until two hours ago, they could be seen blocking the Demon King’s army at the front line.

2 Hours ago, I confirmed that Eve’s acquaintances were there.

In other words, if Kind’s words are not false, it will be clear that Elric and his group are at the front line.

‘There’s no reason for that guy to lie.’

After organizing his thoughts, Harin nodded and said.

“Okay. I get it. Then let’s stick to the plan.”

With those words, she broke off contact with Kind.

At that time.

-Kkiik!

The door behind started to open.

The moment when she turns her head back in an unexpected situation.

“?!”

An unexpected person appeared in his field of vision.

He mumbled her name.

“Ma, Demon King?”

“Hmm. So, is this the first time you’ve seen it in person like this?”

“Yes, yes.”

Harin is taken aback by her sudden appearance.

He thought to himself.

‘What is it? Why did the Demon King suddenly appear?’

No. Could it be that the woman in front of her is the real Demon Lord in the first place?

Her face is the same as the one seen beyond her crystal ball.

Not only that, but even her wings and horns are the same.

However, even though she may look like that, there is no guarantee that she is her.

That time when he doubted in his heart.

-Whaaah!

Magic energy suddenly stirred in her body.

After seeing that, Harin was convinced.

Even if the being in front of her is not the Demon Lord, it is at least her alter ego.

For someone with demonic energy to impersonate the demon lord is nothing short of crazy.

“Once I had doubts, I showed it. “Do you have any confidence now?”

“I’m sorry.”

“There is no need to apologize. If I were you, I would have doubts. Anyway, I came here as a self-immolation because I wanted to hear for myself how the operation was going. “Tell me this.”

“I understand.”

At the end of her words, he told her in detail how to deal with Eve before her eyes.

Without even knowing that she was actually Elric.

***

After hearing Harin’s plan, I nodded to myself.

‘Yes. As expected, this bastard planned it.’

To summarize briefly, this is it.

This guy, along with Kind, an official in the Demon King’s army, attacked Shinji, the head of the Ross family.

There is no particular reason for breaking through the security.

Because this guy caught my attention.

‘And this is the first operation.’

Remaining 2nd operation.

It is none other than a plan to kill Eve.

It is said that during her war with the Demon Lord’s army, he took advantage of her confusion and placed her somewhere else.

And a surprise attack when she was caught off guard.

Of course.

‘It’s impossible to beat this guy alone.’

Of course, there is a high probability that the surprise attack will work.

Eve would never think that her older brother, Harin, was a traitor.

However, there is no way he would fight against her alone.

I’ll probably fight with Kind, an official in the Demon King’s army.

‘Well, the conclusion is that it’s just an ordinary surprise operation.’

Bewildered inside, I looked at him.

“Okay. I heard you well. “It’s definitely not a bad operation.”

“Thank you.”

“However, there is no guarantee that things will go as expected. “They have always interfered in unexpected situations.”

“·····.”

“So, this time, let me come forward and help.”

“Yes?”

In a moment, he opens his eyes.

I looked down at him and asked.

“Are you sure you don’t like it?”

“Oh, no. “It’s just that the Demon Lord is an alter ego, but I don’t think he would personally take on something like this…”

“I came forward because this is what happened. Your younger sister is one of the variables. Anyway, just assume that’s the case and proceed with your plan.”

“Yes. All right.”

With those words, I opened the door and left the room.

It must have been recorded well, right?

***

Same time.

Eve quietly resting in her room.

She sighed in ecstasy as she looked at the pictures of Elric hanging on the wall.

“Ha. When will I be able to be embraced by Elric?”

Recently, I have clearly felt that I am lagging behind others.

Needless to say, other women hugged him.

Moreover, it is said that even Margaret, who was not a returnee, was embraced like a princess.

On the contrary.

‘What am I doing?’

I am now giving him a nuisance.

I tried to be active on the front line to impress him.

However, she suddenly called her from her home.

The reason was that none other than her own father, Shinji, was injured.

When I heard that, my heart sank for a moment.

He heard that his father, no one else, was injured.

So, I have no choice but to go back to my hometown alone…

-I will go with you too.

Contrary to expectations, Elric is also said to be going along.

To be honest, I felt good.

Even though she caused him trouble, isn’t it because he still cares about her that she goes with him?

What kind of woman would hate being worried by the man she likes?

However, it is true that my heart is heavy.

Unlike other women, she feels like she’s constantly causing trouble.

“Haa…”

The moment when she took her breath and told the earth to disappear.

-Eve. Can I come in?

I heard Elric’s voice in my ear.

For a moment, my depressed mood started to improve and I was about to tell him to come in.

-Now, wait a minute!

When she realized that there were a lot of pictures of Elric hanging on the wall, she quickly put them away.

Then after a while.

“Haa…Haa…Come in.”

Eve gasps for breath and tells him to come in.

Elric enters the room after hearing her words.

He tilted his head at her rough breathing.

“What happened? “Why are you out of breath like that?”

“Oh, no! “Nothing happened!”

Anyone can see that something has happened, but since she is so desperately denying it, it is impossible to question her any further.

Elric looked at her like that and asked.

“Can I sit here for a moment?”

“Ah, yes. “As you wish.”

Elric slowly sat down on her bed.

Soon, she took out a recording crystal ball from the subspace ring.

“Eve. “I’ll just tell you straight.”

“····Yes?”

“It’s not that different, but I think Harin is a traitor.”

The moment Eve heard her words, she unconsciously doubted her own ears.

Because she suddenly heard something unexpected.

“Ho, is there any evidence?”

“Let’s first listen to this and then judge.”

Elric uses a recording crystal ball while saying that.

The conversation between Harin and the Demon King was heard from beyond the crystal sphere.

After a while, the recording crystal ball eventually turned off.

“Uh… Is this true?”

“Yes. Of course, to be honest, I didn’t have a conversation with the devil, but with me disguised as him. “I guess Harin felt very uncomfortable, so I checked to see if she knew…”

“Ah…”

For a moment, Eve was at a loss for words.

Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that none other than her own brother would be her traitor.

“Huh…?”

At that moment, the area around my eyes became moist.

Dew begins to form in the eyes.

Elric is startled by Eve’s sudden tears.

When he saw that, he was convinced.

‘Now that I think about it, it was said in the setting book that Eve secretly followed her brother well.’

I wasn’t sure because there wasn’t a proper description, but seeing the tears flowing made me feel quite shocked.

Elric slowly approached her.

Soon, I hugged her gently until she calmed down.

***

Same time.

The devil is deep in thought on his throne.

She was lost in deep thought due to Kind’s report she had just heard.

‘What is it? Why does everything go as planned?’

I’ve never been involved with Elric like this before.

However, the situation goes exactly as expected.

It should definitely feel good, but instead I just feel an ominous feeling.

‘Obviously Elric and them are on the front line.’

Even the warriors are waiting at the front lines.

She rolled her head wildly.

Then after a while.

“Whoa. Okay. “I guess I should at least send a self-immolation.”

Soon, the Demon King made a complete decision and decided to send his self-immolation for an unknown reason.

Not knowing that there was an Elric disguised as the Demon King there.
