Chapter 157 – [Hero] Sera’s Advice
“Did you sleep well, Eric?”
When I opened my eyes, Uni, who was up first, smiled and stroked my cheek.
“Ah… Huh.”
In fact, she didn’t sleep very well.
It’s like a strange nightmare, and I keep hearing strange noises from the next room…
I suddenly looked at Yuni and then slightly looked away.
“Huh? What are you ashamed of?”
Yuni smiled at her without knowing anything and turned my gaze back to her, but every time I looked at her, I kept thinking about yesterday.
Yesterday seems a bit crazy.
Obviously not insane
I know best that it can’t be unique.
Because you were sleeping next to me
But the more I listen to it, the more I feel the similarities.
The feeling she heard from a woman who resembled her was quite strange.
“That… Hey, I’ll put on the clothes first.”
“Okay.”
I put on my clothes again with a slightly reddened face.
When we first came out, we didn’t see if they were sleeping yet.
Yuni and I decided to have breakfast first and look around the town for a while.
Even if they wake up anyway, it will take some time to prepare.
While taking a walk with Uni, Miri and I met eyes from afar.
“Oh.”
I raised her hand to say hello to her, but she hesitated and ran away.
“Don’t feel guilty, Eric. Anyway…”
“Yeah, I know.”
Still, I can’t help but feel a bit sad.
It would be difficult to expect the same reaction now.
With her regret, I handed her her farewell to her.
She didn’t see
After a short walk like that, I came back and before I knew it, they were up and having breakfast.
“Hello, Eric.”
“Hello.”
I suddenly wanted to ask them if anyone else was there yesterday.
However, I couldn’t bear to ask, so I could only talk dryly about when we would leave in the end.
“That’s what I mean. While I was walking earlier, Mr. Ea came and asked me to stop by for a while.”
“Okay?”
So, before we set out, we first visited Ea.
“Hello everyone.”
“… Sera.”
Ea and Sera were sitting at the house of the village chief who visited her.
“Why are you here?”
“This town is an important place. Besides, is it so strange that I manage my men?”
Her tail waggled.
Well, she was a bitch too.
After all, Sera was behind Ea.
Does Sera believe that demons and humans can live together?
“I heard everything. You cooperated on this?”
“No, rather than cooperation…”
It’s not just about staying still.
“That is cooperation. I would like to thank you again from my side. Thank you.”
“… Do you really believe that such a thing is possible?”
Seria said in a slightly dissatisfied tone.
“Well, wouldn’t there be nothing wrong with it? We are sitting together like this now.”
“That and this are different matters.”
“Hmm… It is. Still, we get along well in this town. Yes?”
When she asked as she turned her head to her corner, her chief nodded her head.
Village chief, you were there…
I didn’t even know it actually existed.
“We don’t particularly want either side to be annihilated.”
Saying that, Sarah tapped her tail on the floor to get her attention.
“Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you. This is meaningful only when you see it face to face.”
Sera smiled and looked at her Ea for a moment.
“You are doing well. Please do it like this.”
“Yes yes… !”
Ea nodded her head with a thrilled expression.
Should I say it’s surprising, or should I say it suits me?
Sera and her men seemed to be on good terms.
In contrast, we…
“Oh, and this is a question of both, have you seen Luella?”
“Huh?”
Why is Luella suddenly?
“Strangely, it’s hard to see your face these days, in case you know something…”
“Why are you asking us that?”
Seria crossed her arms and looked at her.
“… That’s it too. Pretend you didn’t hear.”
As Seria said.
Why are you asking us?
No, more than that, if even Sera doesn’t know, does that mean that even the Four Heavenly Kings don’t know each other’s location?
“Well, since it’s Luella, she’ll take care of herself. Thanks anyway. My business ends with this.”
The moment we saw Sera, we who were nervous that something serious might happen, let out a lethargic sigh.
Yes, if nothing happens, that’s the best thing.
“Oh, by the way, I have something to say to you, would you mind staying for a while?”
Saying that, Sarah looked at me.
Only me… ?
“No.”
“I’m not trying to harm you, so don’t worry.”
Yuni hugged me with a wary face.
“You’re overprotective, Uni.”
“Shut up. That woman is your enemy.”
She glared at Sarah as if she didn’t like her, but she only smiled slightly.
“It’s okay, Yuni. Nothing will happen.”
“Eric…”
But I wanted to hear her story.
I don’t know what to say, but at least she didn’t show any obvious hostility towards us.
Uni didn’t want to leave me alone, but in the end she respected my wishes.
After everyone had left, only the two of them, Sera, opened her mouth.
“Thank you. I honestly thought you might not hear it.”
“… This is the last one.”
“Whoops, yes.”
Sarah smiled and looked around.
“Is that woman listening with her spirit? I hope she doesn’t listen.”
“How can I do that…”
“Well, I can’t help it.”
As if it wasn’t a very important matter, Sera passed it on lightly.
“Anyway, the reason why I called you alone all of a sudden is because I have something to tell you.”
“Are you going to tell me?”
Sarah looked at me as if evaluating me and smiled slightly.
“I heard from Ertina, divine power… I hear you’re practicing the power of being called?”
“Ah, yes…”
Ertina. I didn’t know she would tell Sarah about this.
From her point of view, isn’t Sera the enemy?
“How are you? I feel like I’m just groaning without making any progress.”
At that, I shut my mouth.
I wanted to say that I was doing well for a moment, but honestly, I couldn’t say that with empty words.
Compared to when it first appeared, nothing has improved.
“It’s only natural that it doesn’t go well. There is no one to teach, and the feeling is unfamiliar. So I want to give you some advice.”
“… Why?”
Why is she telling me this?
Despite my doubts, Sera remained calm.
“Let’s just say it’s a reward for helping us. How is it, don’t you need it?”
“… Let’s hear it for now.”
Her help is questionable, but right now it’s a no-brainer.
Aren’t I in a situation where I have to hold onto even a straw?
“That power… The power you call divine power is simply water in a jar.”
“Huh?”
What do you mean?
“It means you can only use the amount contained in it. So the more you fill it up, the more power you can use. Is it easy to understand?”
“Then how…”
“How do you fill it up, are you curious?”
Yes, according to her, that is the key.
First of all, it is urgent to use the divine power efficiently, but if the amount can be increased right away, even if it is inefficient, it can be overwhelmed with quantity.
The fact that he was hearing from Sera, the target of the subjugation, was a little strange, but let’s think about that later.
“I’m excited.”
“… Excitement?”
The excitement I think… ?
“Yes, to put it plainly, I mean the kind of arousal you get while having sex.”
“Sex… It’s okay.”
I jumped up at those words.
Seeing that even her face turned red, Sera laughed and continued talking.
“The more excited you are, the more the power builds up.”
“… Why, why is that…”
Wasn’t this power given by the Goddess?
Why does it have such a strange condition?
“Whoops… Of course, it doesn’t have to be sexual excitement. You weren’t sexually aroused when you first manifested it, right? But the most efficient and quickest way is, of course, the excitement that comes from sex.”
So, does that mean that the more you relate to Yuni now, the stronger you become?
“Did you do it with that elemental sage?”
“…”
“If you don’t feel like you’ve gotten much stronger, think about it. How can I be more excited…”
“Blood, I don’t need it.”
The moment with Yuni is the happiest for me…
“There is a difference between happiness and excitement.”
No, I’m most excited when I’m with Uni…
Really?
“Whoops… But do you know what?”
Saying that, Sara licked her own lips with her tongue.
“People are usually most aroused when they are having an affair…”
Swoop.
Her tail was groping my thighs before I knew it.
Sara got up from her seat and came over to me.
“If you need me, I can help you a little…”
Crackle!
As soon as she said that, the windows of her chief’s house were shattered.
“Huh, if you tease me more, they’ll come in.”
“UNI…”
I was listening too
No, but if you break someone else’s window like this…
“Then I’m scared, so I’ll just go. Think carefully, new warrior. I know you don’t like it, but if it’s to protect the world… Could it be that there is nothing you can do about it?”
“Now, hold on!”
As she tried to exit through her back door, I quickly grabbed her.
“Oh, do you want to do it already? Is she staring?”
“Oh, no, not that…”
I hurriedly excused her words and barely asked what I wanted to ask.
“… Why are you helping us so much?”
“Whoops…”
She laughed at that, but she didn’t answer.
“You are… Our enemy, we are the demon king… That…”
“Yes, you must kill it. Of course I know.”
Said Sarah, and she came abruptly toward me.
“We are the Four Heavenly Kings. I am a being who considers following the orders of the Demon King as the greatest happiness and lives only for that person. Of course, each of us thinks a little differently.”
Then she took two steps away from me again.
“That’s all. Enough then.”
She opened the back door and ran out.
I stood there blankly, wondering what she meant, until Yuni entered her house.
