Chapter 137 – [Porter] Black Flowers in Both Hands
Princess Ertina.
She was the elementalist of the previous Hero party, but now she is one of the Demon King’s Four Heavenly Kings.
Louella. She was also the wizard of the previous Hero party…
Yeah, that means she was all part of the Hero party anyway.
All of Luella, Sera, and Ertina.
And what about that skeleton?
Who the hell was the only Skeleton Four that the Hero party dealt with?
“Perhaps the most curious part is this, right? Why did we become the Four Heavenly Kings?”
Sarah was smirking in front of us.
Yeah, from her point of view, the shocking us look amused.
Still, I don’t like it because I think that smile is laughing at me.
“For obvious reasons. Because our master has become the new demon king.”
However, having said this, Sarah was stopped by Louella and she said no more.
Are the two of you arguing?
Deliberately trying to make people curious and run away?
Sera stuns her Ertina and exits with her on her back.
Naturally, her hero party tried to stop her, but Luella blackmailed them with her black magic, leaving her stranded and unable to move.
If you attack Louella, she will repair her wounds with the blood and flesh of someone here, so she understands that she can’t fight back.
Last time, well, there were a lot of aristocrats and elders with whom I had no acquaintance, so I shot magic without worrying, but if that happened again this time, my precious slaves might die.
“… It must have been slow. Thanks for your cooperation. I didn’t want to kill you either.”
The warriors had no choice but to open their eyes and watch as they fled to Luella.
The hero was angry with a very indignant expression, but he probably wouldn’t have been able to attack Luella even if he were two or three times stronger than he is now.
How could he recklessly attack when his and his comrades’ lives were at stake?
If I had to deal with Luella, I would probably have to risk her life and fight her one-on-one to defeat her.
The only way to deal with it completely is to find her body and destroy it, as Seria said last time.
How to deal with her is her hero, her mind.
I only have to take care of the by-products behind the scenes.
Isn’t this a porter?
“… It’s okay, Mr. Eric. Obviously, if we work harder…”
Arin approached to console her, perhaps feeling sorry for the warrior who was shaking her hand with a look of resentment.
Widely!
“Don’t touch me.”
But before she could even lay her hand on him, Uni slapped her hand on Arin’s and sent her cold eyes away.
“Yu, Uni?”
Her sudden change shocked not only me but also the hero.
Also, did you know everything?
That expression is hostile no matter who sees it.
Uni is burning hostility towards us.
And there is only one reason why Uni would do that.
“… Sorry.”
Arin lowered her head with a guilty expression on her face.
Gee, I haven’t completely cleared her mind yet.
I’m going to have a hard time for a while.
“What’s wrong, Yuni?”
The hero looked back at us as if he still hadn’t grasped the situation.
“Why everyone… Are you not saying anything?”
Chilly atmosphere.
Now, as anyone can see, we are divided into two sides.
My slaves surrounded me and protected me from any threat.
Arin had a rather complicated expression on her face, but she was still keeping an eye on the two of them.
“… Why are you laughing?”
The warrior’s gaze turned to me.
Oops, were you laughing?
The situation right now is not good for me.
Because the plan to drop Yuni is now in trouble.
Still, I couldn’t stop laughing.
Hey, isn’t that funny
The stupidity of a warrior who only noticed the whole story when he had already come to the point of no return.
The most pitiful thing is that even though I knew enough, I was afraid to face the truth and pretended not to know.
It’s because you treat her so carelessly that she’s taken away from you.
I laughed at him and opened his mouth.
“Oh, you really don’t know, so you’re asking…”
“Shut up. Do not say.”
… What?
I was momentarily taken aback by Yuni’s violent words.
I swear, it’s not that long, but I’ve never seen anything like that come out of Uni.
Looking at her like that, her face was distorted to the extent I had ever seen, pouring out the most vivid anger at me.
Suddenly, I remembered what happened before I got them.
Seria is arrogantly trying to cut her daily wages, and Arin wakes me up at dawn and asks me to bring out tools to trim her hair.
The only one who treated me the least was Uni.
Uni, who used to do that, hated and hated me more than anyone else.
Seria, who used to ignore me, now licks the soles of her shoes when I say a word, and Arin, who was devoted only to her hero, will show her the other cheek in gratitude even if I slap her on the cheek.
And Yuni will no longer treat me the way she used to.
“…”
Feeling somehow complicated, I crossed my arms.
“Yu, Uni, why the hell are you doing this…”
“Eric.”
Uni decided to show Eric this cruel reality.
“… I’m sorry, Eric.”
Eric’s eyes, which were trembling nervously at her words, stopped.
“Why… Are you apologizing?”
“I am… I didn’t want this…”
Not only her, she wouldn’t have wished for anyone in this position.
Except me.
“… Did you see it as a spirit?”
Seria noticed how Uni was observing us.
Is it that bastard’s spirit?
A spirit that was said to be everywhere.
Yuni must have witnessed our relationship through the eyes of the spirits.
Mixing with Seria and mixing with Arin…
“… Uni, I…”
Arin hesitated as if he could not stand this awkward atmosphere, and she took a step forward.
Seria, perhaps angered by her attitude, brought her words out coldly.
“Scale. Whose side are you on?”
“Ah, well…”
At that, Arin hesitated as if she had realized her subject, and she stepped back from her.
It seems that this situation will be over and she will need additional corporal punishment.
“… Since when?”
The hero looked at Arin and asked.
She didn’t ask Seria. She probably knew.
“From today.”
When I answered instead, the hero looked at me.
Boring kid.
I tried not to intervene as much as possible, but I just couldn’t stand it.
“Thanks to you and Yuni betraying this bitch, it was completely passed on to me.”
If I hadn’t betrayed Arin this morning, she wouldn’t have fallen for me already.
In the end, it was the hero and Yuni who pushed Arin’s back.
Are you still resentful of Arin and trying to find the reason for her?
It’s so ugly.
“Is not it?”
I said that and rubbed Arin’s chest in front of Hero.
“I’m sorry… Ugh, uh, if you do this here…”
Arin was taken aback, but he didn’t ask me to remove her hand or ask for anything like that.
“… Jeren!”
He called me by my name for the first time.
Looking at his bloodshot eyes, he’ll take a hit.
But I don’t have to be scared.
Because my faithful female shield is by my side.
“… If you come closer, I will attack you.”
Seria took a step forward to protect me and pointed her staff at Eric.
At this moment, I was so thrilled with this moment.
The wizard who loved the hero is now aiming his staff at the hero.
“Me… Attack?”
“Eric, I value you as much as I do. Because you are the warrior chosen by the goddess, and the person with the highest chance of defeating the demon king.”
To Eric, who was shocked, Seria calmly continued her words.
“… I’m sorry though.”
Her words were the final sentence given to Eric.
“Master… You are more precious than me…”
Kuh, kuhh.
Who wouldn’t be thrilled to hear this?
I couldn’t hold back my overflowing excitement and continued to touch Arin’s chest.
Grabbing her breasts, pinching her nipples.
“Huh, huh…”
Arin snorted and leaned her body towards her.
With each of those gestures, the hero shuddered as if to die and barely opened her mouth.
“… Let go of that hand.”
Orders are given by the strong to the weak.
And now, in this situation, he was the weakest of all.
“Let go of that hand!”
I said while pinching Arin’s nipples.
“Scale. Block it.”
“Excited… Ah…”
Arin looked at me with her hazy eyes and she immediately raised her hand.
“I’m sorry, Eric…”
As she clenched her fists, her champion froze in the air.
The hero’s body was in Arin’s grasp.
After Arin’s powers dwelled on my back, I was able to understand her blessings in greater detail.
Her blessing of activating the body was also capable of inactivating the body.
“Oh, is it like that? I can write too.”
“… Ha, can I show you one more time?”
When I showed interest, Arin said with a twinkle in her eyes.
How busy you are trying to get my attention…
It was proof that she had already reached the point where she could not return.
Before I could answer, Arin reached out her hand to Yuni.
Even towards her former friend, Arin was relentless.
To receive only my praise, my touch, she cursed her own best friend.
Curse called blessing.
Chew!
“… Uh?”
Blood spurted from her arm along with Arin’s panicked voice.
Several sharp red lines were drawn from her fingertips to her shoulder.
… With what?
“Kyaaak… !”
“Release.”
Uni looked at Arin with colder eyes than anyone else in the world.
At one point, she had colder eyes than Seria had shown me before she was tamed.
Could it be a spirit?
Spirit of wind?
I had no idea it could be used so aggressively.
No, this isn’t the way she used to be in the first place.
Yuni had hardly ever used it to attack her spirits.
… Ertina!
This is definitely Ertina’s spirit art.
Did you learn it in that short amount of time during the confrontation?
When Ah-Rin didn’t do anything, clutching at her wounds with her confused eyes, Yuni called her spirit again.
At this rate, her fatal wounds would remain, so I ordered her.
“… Release me.”
Arin distorted her face in pain, but she let go of the hero’s blessing.
“Oh… Big…”
Uni hugged the hero who began to shed tears as she trembled at her anger and humiliation.
“It’s okay, Eric. I am… Because I am here.”
“Huh. I am not running away.”
Uni whispers in her hero’s ear and he hugs her tighter.
“I am… Because you are Eric’s only ally.”
It was only when I saw the smile on Uni’s face as she soothed Eric that I was convinced, no, we were.
Uni intended this situation.
***
She took Eric and left first.
The three of us who were left were left standing in this bizarre space that was unnecessarily bright even though it was dawn, and did not say anything.
“… Uh, what?”
Arin was the first to open her mouth.
She looked at me with her anxious eyes as she had the most emotional ups and downs because she couldn’t let go of her feelings for Eric.
“Scale.”
“Yes yes?”
“Come on.”
Seria called her instead of me.
Before Arin, who sneaked up to Seria, spoke to her,
Damn!
“Kyaaak… !”
Match!
“Seri, Seri…”
Match!
“Huh…”
Seria slapped Arin’s cheek three times with her face red from anger.
“Arin, are you still out of your mind?”
“Huh, huh… Three, Seria…”
“You still don’t know who you are?”
“… Ugh…”
Arin rubbed his cheek, her tears welling up.
“I apologize quickly.”
At her words, Arin prostrated himself on the floor.
“Sorry!”
“What are you sorry about?”
She cried as she lay flat on the floor.
“… Lord, I was ashamed of being your master’s slave… Sorry…”
“Then, can we look forward to it in the future?”
“Yes yes… !”
I grinned and trampled her head with my shoe.
“Then show it to the hero as soon as you return. Show me who your cunt belonged to, waving that slut-like outfit.”
“…”
I put her feet away and glanced at Seria.
She nodded her head and made Arin raise his head.
“Seri, Seri…”
Damn!
“Why don’t you answer?”
“Huh… Sorry… !”
“You should do it to the master, not to me.”
Damn!
“Sin, sorry! I’ll do it! I’ll do it as soon as I go!”
Watching Arin bow her head and apologize, I crossed my arms.
Seria looked at me and quietly sat on top of Arin.
“Chik… !”
“Don’t move.”
When Seria tapped her, Arin couldn’t move as she was on her knees.
“Master, what are you going to do now?”
“Hmm…”
Should Uni give up?
Is there any way to show hostility like that?
In fact, isn’t it already enough income for the two of them?
No need to take risks…
“I hope that Master’s thoughts do not change.”
“To capture Yuni?”
“Yes.”
Do you have any thoughts?
“Even though Yuni’s field of vision is very wide because of her spirit… That doesn’t mean she can’t stay awake all day.”
“Yes.”
Uni also needs to sleep.
Sharing sight with the spirits all day would be more tiring than expected.
“It must be difficult for Master to approach Yuni now. So we’ll do it.”
“How?”
In her mind, they and I are already a gang.
It’s not exactly wrong, but I don’t expect Uni to be nice to Seria and Arin anyway.
“We won’t approach Yuni right away either.”
“Ah…”
Arin, who was covered under Seria, let out a small moan as if he realized something.
“Next, Arin will tell you. Say it.”
Match!
As Seria gave her a slap in the back, Arin flinched and said,
“Huh! That… That is… It’s my opinion, but if Uni doesn’t work… I wonder if we can use Eric.”
Seria looked at me with a smile as if Arin’s words were correct.
“Exactly.”
