152. Walpurgis Night
devildom.
The gray-haired girl always carried a black umbrella even on days when it wasn’t raining. In addition, he wore a goth loli outfit every day.
The girl’s name is Helia.
At one time, he served the queen as the thirteenth apostle. After joining Mine, he was the one who stabbed the Queen in the back from behind.
Her essence is a vampire. And the reason why so many vampires now melt into the sun is because she indiscriminately inherited her blood.
As if to prove this, her eyes were shining red like rubies.
Helia made no effort to hide her boredom. Walpurgis Night was scheduled to be held. Numerous Mine were filling the conference hall.
The reason they were urgently summoned was because the mid-to-higher ranks, including Gamigin, had been slaughtered recently. Before I knew it, several Mines were filling the conference table.
“Welcome to Walpurgis Night.”
Dantalian bowed in an exaggerated motion as if acting. Now it was time to host this Walpurgis Night.
“The reason why the Mines were urgently summoned today is because, as you all know, three Mines, including Gamigin, have passed away. So, Mine’s power is greatly weakened now. If you would like to comment on this proposal at any time… ”
For a moment, Helena burst into laughter. She raised one hand as if remembering something interesting.
“I have a good opinion. First of all, let’s tie up Dantalian and burn him in the torch.”
“Yes, Miss Helia? What do you mean by that? Aha, kidding! That’s a good joke. It was an atmosphere that would have been heavy if I didn’t do it, but thank you so much for joking… .”
However, Helya glared at Dantalian with a cold gaze. It wasn’t a joke at all.
“Dantalian? Are you kidding? Are you having fun with this situation? Shouldn’t you be responsible and die? How many Mine died as a result of your strategy?”
It was. It was Dantalian who had served as Mine’s staff until now. That’s why, although he stayed at the bottom in terms of military power, he rose to the position of presiding over the meeting like this.
This time, the plan that led to Asmodeus’s involvement in the arranged marriage with the Lognes family was all a strategy that came from Dantalion’s brain. In terms of results, it was a failed operation.
“Honestly, has Dantalian’s operation worked lately? Does everyone agree with me?”
Not only that, but Andromalius, Jagan, and Murmur were all killed in Dantalian’s operation.
“It’s fun. The only thing Dantalian knows how to do is tease his tongue anyway, so he cuts off half of it.”
The woman who said that was the second-ranked Agares. She rested her chin and studied Dantalian’s complexion. Dantalian, whose complexion was as pale as a sheet of paper, smiled awkwardly.
“Children, take the holy water first.”
Helya beckoned, and the vampire standing behind took out the holy water from the subspace and put it down.
“A vampire baptizing demons with holy water… , I look forward to this.”
Agares applauded. On the verge of turning the meeting hall into an execution ground in an instant, Dantalian diligently rolled his eyes to find someone to help.
“wait for me. Now is not the time to divide us among ourselves.”
“Everyone, don’t be rash.”
There was silence for a moment in Bael’s voice. Mine Bael, ranked #1. There was no one to follow him here by force. That’s how strong his opinion was.
“Everyone, that’s right. There is only one thing we can do while the seven demon lords are absent due to the seal. It means that Ethan must be punished before the Demon King wakes up.”
Dantalian did not miss the opportunity and raised his voice.
“The human who killed Gamigin and Asmodeus was Ethan! This is Ethan. everyone!”
The meeting hall buzzed at the word Edan. Recently, the name Edan has been heard often. If left as it is, judging from his growth, he might become stronger and perhaps become the strongest hero.
Even with the hero Lund Amos alone, the demons were already in trouble.
“Ethan, you don’t know how bad this guy is. According to the information I obtained, it was Edan who stole the Giant Goddess guarding the eastern entrance of the Pandemonium!”
Dantalian’s intelligence gatherer is a bat.
The group of bats was scattered not only in the Demon Realm, but also throughout the Human Realm. The reason why I couldn’t easily hit Dantalian’s head from the Mine’s point of view was because he had information in his hands.
“So what are you going to do with Ethan? What, lead the corps to the academy and start a war?”
Helena asked incredulously.
He had already carried out three absurd raids, and became the main culprit in making the enemy stronger by giving only skill balls.
“First of all, I think someone needs to fill the vacancy in Gamigin! And who is suitable for him… !”
Gamigin is so strong that even the Demon Four Heavenly Kings can enter.
And since the position of the Four Heavenly Kings itself had a high status, it was impossible to leave that position absent somehow. Whether there were four heavenly kings or not was a serious issue directly related to fraud.
Dantalian’s gaze turned to Helya. He grinned and raised his voice.
“I am Helia! I recommend Miss Helya, who murdered the vampire queen and has the alias of the queen slayer!”
* * *
Lognesban’s territory.
All the Mines who participated in Sepia’s wedding were subjugated.
In the yard where there were candidates including Ashron who inherited the power of the vampire queen, the guards of the Logness class, and Arthur, the resistance of the demons who could not even fit in the ranks was futile.
Is that all? Sepia is the legitimate successor of Lognes Class. The wedding was the place where many collaterals of the Lognes family had been held.
No matter how collateral they are, they all have the qualities of an outstanding wizard befitting a family that opposes the devil.
Above all, the enemy’s morale plummets when the head of the enemy general is slaughtered. After Asmodeus died, they also lost their will to fight.
In the original story, Asmodeus invaded such a territory. If he had been sane in the first place, he wouldn’t have invaded the territory just because he was black.
Although it was an eccentricity while the head of the family, Halion, was away.
In any case, it was as if the issue of Asmodeus’ invasion of Lognes was dealt with. Once again, the future had changed.
And now I was called in front of Dangju together with Sepia. Dangju glared at me with strict, dignified, serious eyes.
It was after a long conversation about a vampire intruding on a wedding. Fortunately, Halion, like a mage, was well versed in history.
He knew that the vampires that many people now know were ugly monsters created by the thirteenth apostle, and that vampires were originally a noble race.
There was only one problem.
He said he stole the young lady’s lips on the topic of servants. I kissed Sepia on the lips in front of everyone, and of course rumors spread around the estate.
A romance between a servant and a young lady. Of course, it was a material that maids who like to spread rumors would like.
“Ethan, at least, thank you for stopping Sepia from almost becoming Mine’s wife. But that and this are different matters. So let me ask you. Do you love my daughter?”
I felt a worried gaze beside me. I left Sepia’s gaze behind and faced Dangju.
“Yes, I love sepia.”
Drooling, Halion pressed his temples gently. In my heart, please give me your father-in-law’s daughter. I wanted to get down on my knees, but… . It just wasn’t the mood.
“Since when? Since when did you love sepia… ?”
It was only recently that I realized my feelings about sepia, but for some reason I felt like I shouldn’t tell the truth.
“I do not know. from a moment… .”
“sepia… . Since when did you like Ethan?”
Sepia answered without hesitation.
“Dad, I don’t think it matters since when. The important thing is that now I can’t imagine myself without Ethan.”
“No, this is an important issue. sepia! Maybe you guys are still young and your eyes were hit for a while. Maybe I’m overreacting to that.”
I think I know why the male lead often has conflicts with his father-in-law in dramas. And I fully understand Halion’s position, even though I am not the father.
I have a sepia-like beautiful daughter, and if some guy comes and kisses me in the territory and gets caught, he will be seen as the culprit of all evil who seduced my rabbit-like daughter.
“Head of the house, no, Halion von Lognes. I love the sepia girl. The important thing is that I love you enough to risk my life.”
While the head of the house was staring at me, I continued talking.
“In the eyes of the lord, I will look low and of unknown origin. I know that feeling well. Even if I were a lord, I’d be seen as something I wouldn’t like. From the head of the house, I know that I am not trustworthy. But I can promise you one thing.”
I glanced at sepia once. Sepia bit her lower lip nervously.
“I will make your daughter happy. That is all I promise.”
Dangju sighed.
“My family has had arranged marriages for generations. Do you know what the reason is?”
The Logness family’s arranged marriage is to produce better wizards. In other words, it means that the status of the family is more important than individual happiness.
“It is to pass on better magical talents. Yes, Ethan. I’ll be honest. If it is judged that you have magical qualities or talents, I will allow you to associate with Sepia. But if not, not until I get dirt in my eyes.”
I grinned inwardly.
magical qualities? To be honest, my magic circuit isn’t very dense, and the speed at which I acquire magic is mediocre.
But there was one thing I excelled at in Sepia.
“If it’s a magical talent, I have one.”
At that, Halion let out a laugh.
“Please, check my magic power.”
“mana? good night. If you are confident in your magical power, I will personally confirm your magical power.”
Before long, Halion sat down with me and began measuring my mana. After 5 or 10 minutes, Halion tilted his head as if wondering.
And after 20 minutes, the gap between the eyebrows narrowed, and after an hour, I was embarrassed with a gasping sound. In the meantime, Sepia smiled brightly by her side.
“Ethan… , how big of a magic pot are you… ?”
After about three hours, Halion jumped up. Thanks to that, the chair fell back with a thud.
“I’ve never seen a human with such a huge magic potion in my life… .”
I smiled lightly at such a Halion. Lord, no, Father! Now give me the sepia. My throat tickled because I wanted to say that.
