chapter 15
The Saint?
“So how did Serena get hurt?”
“She’s poisoned.”
“What poison?”
“I don’t know about that. But the medicine that Serena asked you to make for her before will solve the problem.”
Charen, who was nodding her head while holding her chin, snapped her fingers.
“Then I’ll have to go and treat it myself.”
“The medicine you gave Serena last time was enough…?”
“It didn’t work for Serena because it was made exclusively for demons.”
I unconsciously tried to nod her head, but stopped.
Did the saintess notice my existence earlier than expected?
“What are you doing? She says Serena might die if she doesn’t go soon.”
As she said, the important thing now is Serena’s safety.
I took out the demon king’s stone from her bosom. Because the condition for her to enter the Demon King’s Stone was contact, she grabbed Sharenne’s wrist.
Despite her sudden touch, Charen didn’t care much and only blinked her eyes.
Isn’t this woman afraid of me? Do you think that even if I am a villain, there is something to believe in?
If that’s not the case, I don’t know if he thinks I’m in the palm of my hand, but he doesn’t hesitate to treat me.
“Well, that’s inside, right? Hurry up.”
In the meantime, the vision blinked, and in the blink of an eye, I came inside the Demon King’s Stone.
Charen brushed off her hand that was holding her and walked in front of her.
As if she had already been there, her steps into the darkness were light as if she had gone for a walk.
“Aren’t you following me?”
“Huh? Uh…yes.”
What is it? Was the saintess originally this proactive?
The saintess I remember was timid and timid.
Although she felt a sense of distance, she decided to pass it on for now.
“Hmm, it’s exactly the same poison.”
Arriving at Serena’s room, Charen completely erased her mischievous attitude from before and began to examine Serena’s condition.
Serena was in pain, breaking out in a cold sweat. She took a deep breath and felt as if her heart would stop at any moment.
“Don’t worry. Fortunately, it’s not too late.”
I wonder if my expression when she looked at her was serious. Charen said not to worry, blinking one of her eyes.
Charen stirred Serena’s hand a couple of times above Serena’s head.
Instantly, her hand emitted a bright light, and golden dust dripped down.
“It’s over.”
After repeating the action for a few seconds, Charen shook her hands and stood up from her seat.
Serena’s dark complexion brightened noticeably, but she seldom showed signs of waking up.
“Are you sure you did it right?”
When she asked if she wanted to, Shar-en approached me with her ominous eye smile and grabbed her by the shoulder.
And then, just like before, her grip radiated a bright light.
“Ugh… crazy, what are you doing?”
I felt a burning pain from where her hands touched.
“Are you sick?”
“That’s what you mean…”
In response to her complaints, Charien smiled and stuck out her tongue halfway.
“This proves that I am not the whore you said.”
Did you half burn someone’s shoulder with holy power just because you wanted to say that?
“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you have any complaints?”
The saintess I saw in the novel was a benevolent woman who forgave even the wicked, but the woman standing in front of me now looked like a noble lady with a dirty personality, so I was just surprised.
“Do you not answer?”
Her personality seems to have been twisted properly, so she tried to keep her words as quiet as possible, but then she opened her eyes and demanded an answer.
If you ignore… You will be more tired
“Yes… it would be nice to be pure.”
“Pup, unlike you, I didn’t lose her features.”
I got a rough idea of what that word meant in that her gaze stayed on my lower back.
How far did that brat go about spreading rumors? At least you shouldn’t be spreading rumors.
“The treatment is over, so I’ll send you back.”
“Hmm, looking at it again, this is a perfect space for two people to live together.”
I was dismissive of my words, and in a meaningful tone, Charlene rhymed.
The phrase ‘the two of you are sweet’ was jarring, but she decided not to mention it because she had just realized that nothing good would come from getting caught up in her pun.
“Have you been here before?”
“Yes, I was called in to treat you. Of course, I was kicked out without time to look back.”
I was going to tell you to stop if you’ve seen it before, but I was blocked in advance.
“Oran won’t disrespect me for saving Serena, right?”
Shareen then drives the wedge.
She lost the justification to kick her out openly.
Now that you have tasted the power of the divine power, it will be impossible to drive it out by force.
In the end, the only way was to get her to go out on her own two feet.
“I don’t care if there are more here, but there’s nowhere else to look around anyway?”
“Why?”
“That’s because you can’t go into the other rooms.”
She has never seen her get bored and leave the room while she is locked inside.
There were doors in the long corridor, but all of them didn’t open as if something was blocking them.
“Can I drill a hole for you?”
“Did you drill it?”
“The door sealed with demonic energy. Maybe I can open it with my holy power?”
I was about to tell her to leave now, since she has nowhere else to look, but she made an unexpected offer.
“It looks like the demon king blocked it himself. Aren’t you curious about what’s inside?”
“Yeah… that’s right.”
It’s the devil’s seal. What on earth did you hide inside?
Even though I don’t like her existence, I was very curious about that.
“But no.”
“Why?”
“If curiosity is the reason, there is no justification to follow.”
In movies, people who are curious about that kind of thing always look first.
I didn’t want to die as an extra.
“Hu, I don’t notice.”
I thought I answered well in my own way, but Char-en sighed and glared at me with a stinging look.
“You don’t notice?”
“It’s too small for Serena and me to live here.”
“Wait, you two… what?”
For a moment, I wondered if I had heard it wrong.
“Newlyweds should be spacious, right?”
“It looks like you’re misunderstanding something…”
“Speak. I’m open, so you’re free to follow me or not.”
I’m the one who would be angry, but Char-en turned around, making her nervous.
In the first place, it seems that the answer to whatever I said was fixed in that woman’s head.
Yes. She ran after her with her excited steps.
“Now, this is the first door.”
A maroon-colored wooden door a little taller than me. As Charen touched her doorknob with her hand imbued with her divine power, she slowly began to turn.
Tack-
“Hoo, you blocked it stronger than I thought?”
Muttering that she might not be able to open a few doors at this rate, Charen strode inside.
“Hmm, this feels like a kitchen.”
As Charen said, there was a luxurious dining table and two chairs in front of her room.
In the ‘U’-shaped kitchen, an induction stove, a sink, and a machine similar to a coffee pot were placed, and various cooking utensils were hung on the wall.
There was even a box resembling a refrigerator and a cabinet resembling an oven.
“There are so many artifacts?”
Artifact, that was the name given to a tool with special powers.
It’s a view that can be seen in a normal family home, but I wondered if it was a rare sight when people in this world saw it.
“There’s another door over there.”
Charen, who was looking into her kitchen, noticed the small door next to her and ran to her and turned the handle.
Kikiiik-
The cellar was opened with a rather eerie sound.
“As expected, I knew there would be a treasure like this.”
To be precise, it was a warehouse where various types of alcohol were stored in rows.
“Isn’t the devil’s taste high-end?”
Sharenne runs around excitedly like a child.
“This, and that. I’ve saved it. Will you die if you eat it?”
The first room exploration ended with a few bottles of alcohol put together and a threat.
“Now, shall we open the next room?”
Standing in front of the door right next to her, Charen turned the doorknob, muttering her hum.
“This looks like a bathroom.”
The second room has only one large bathtub.
I was amazed at the size of the bathroom, which was the size of a swimming pool rail, when the door suddenly closed.
“This is the pass, there’s nothing to see.”
“A bathroom that big?”
“Yes, there are many such things in the palace.”
I replied briefly and walked to the next room as if it was a waste of time.
Didn’t you say earlier that it was too small for the two of you to live in?
It occurred to me that her purpose in the first place might have been a treasure hunt.
“Doesn’t this room look unusual?”
Standing in front of the next visit, she was already excited.
“Wow…!”
I wonder if Sharenne’s expectations were met? As soon as the door opened she let out her exclamation.
Certainly, the appearance of this room was completely different from the inside of the Devil’s Stone, which was like an underground dungeon.
A black carpet that was pleasant to the touch was spread over white marble, and a leather sofa and sofa bed that looked expensive at first glance, and a round table with detailed carvings occupied the center of the room.
The walls are decorated with various jewelry pieces, as if revealing that the owner of this place is very rich.
Anyway, the purpose of this room seemed to be a drawing room to reveal the prestige of the demon king himself.
“These are cigarettes? There are so many!”
I thought that Charende must have admired the splendid composition of the room, but it seems that her interest lies in a completely different place.
“I’ve been wanting to straighten it for a long time, Mr. Oran?”
Holding her cigarette between her fingers in a V, she chinned her match on her table.
Could you please see me and light a fire?
No, the saintess I knew was not a bad girl who smoked.
“Mr. Oran.”
Shareen’s forehead furrowed as I stood still.
Yes. She lit the fire as the saint wished.
“I didn’t want to say this, but is it okay for the saintess to smoke this?”
“That’s fine. I’m going to marry Evil soon anyway and lose her virginity.”
Charen spoke calmly while exhaling smoke from her mouth.
Looking at this, I feel embarrassed.
“Ah, then you think it shouldn’t bloom?”
Although she put on a surprised expression, she did not put the cigarette in her mouth.
Now I’m confused whether it’s the same person as the saintess I used to know. To be honest, I want her to destroy her innocence in moderation.
“Even a warrior knows what you look like?”
“Of course you don’t know. You’ll probably freak out when you find out? But you have to be willing to do anything to get what you want, even if it means being a villain.”
Charien blinked one of her eyes at her with a wicked smile on her lips.
She was openly teasing me, but she couldn’t argue.
“Rather than that, I might tell the hero. Is it okay if I tell you this?”
Shar-en put down the cigarette she was holding with a picky, airy laugh.
“If you’re confident you’ll be alive, would you try it? Oh, before that, will anyone believe the words of the villain?”
Now they’re openly provoking them, but I can’t stand them back.
I don’t think I’ll ever be alive.
“We had something else to say, right?”
Licking her lips with her tongue and smiling brightly, she pointed her finger at the sofa next to her as if telling her to sit down.
“What are you talking about…?”
“What. Anything. G. You said you would listen.”
She smiled brightly like a child who received a fun toy as a gift.
