Chapter 52 – Don’t Let Bella Get Excited

At that time, Zanbar urgently sought out Bella.

“Princess, there is something disgusting, so everyone can’t get rid of it.”

Then, he glanced at Kiehl and faltered, a little startled by his stature. He looked at him seated earlier, so he still thought he was a kid.

“What’s so disgusting?”

“Did the Young Master bring it? Something like a holy sword?”

Zanbar growled, revealing his teeth when he saw Kiehl’s appearance more suited to the warrior who came to capture the Demon King.

“Are you threatening Kiehl?”

“Princess, that guy…!”

“He should at least bring a holy sword to attack the demon realm.”

At her words, Zanbar looked at Bella with a puzzled look. Then, she thought for a moment before opening her mouth to ask back.

“Wait, is something strange?”

She wondered if her head had turned into a stone because she was really in the Demon Realm. Bella couldn’t figure out where this situation, which was different from the original story, had gone wrong. He came here to kill her, and he knew it was Bella…?

“Kiehl, where did you meet Iwer?”

“We met a few months ago. There is a wizard named Rinne, who said that she was summoning the demon king, so I went to stop it, and saw Iwer.”

Bella swallowed her saliva and rolled her head.

“Then, did you know that I was in the Demon Realm from the moment you came?”

“…Yes.”

Kiehl answered, gazing carefully at Bella’s eyes.

Before entering the realm.

Hearing Kiehl’s strategy, Jenkins stomped his feet and stopped him.

“What if you did that, and she went crazy?”

“Ahng. I want to see her go crazy too. It’s like yesterday when the previous demon king passed away.”

“Considering what I heard from Pur, if the Miss loses her mind, the young master may not be safe.”

Kiehl thought deeply. It was said that the more you were in the Demon Realm, the simpler your thoughts would be, and you would be bound to one thing.

— “What will happen if fate changes?”

— “My life is at stake.”

Kiehl sighed as he looked at the study containing the manuscripts of the novel.

“This is the only way.”

It was a gamble that risked Kiehl’s life. If she wanted to die, it was no different from just wanting to die together.

‘Please…’

As Bella always did, she just wanted to lose.

Jenkins agreed, and placed a hand on Kiehl’s shoulder, “Young Master, then, somehow, don’t let the Miss get excited.”

“Jenkins…”

Jenkins also began bleeding from his neck in exchange for breaking his oath of obedience.

“…Fool.”

Although he was in pain, he continued to curse at Bella until the end.

“It seems that the Miss’ personality has changed a lot… be careful.”

Knowing how much he suffered, Kiehl ignored him and asked Rinne.

“Just in case, can we use the same radio that Bella uses?”

“Once I know the principle?”

Rinne shrugged her shoulders and answered proudly.

Kiehl looked into her eyes and examined her mood. Meanwhile, Bella mumbled and started biting her nails.

“No… It’s a love story anyway, so if that’s the case, it doesn’t matter…”

Even though she had been locked in here for the past four years, she was getting more and more anxious trying to guess how much things have changed. She cycled back and forth between the wreckage, talking to herself.

“No, if you found me while hanging out with Rosanne…”

Now, she began to chew her whole fingers, not her nails. Bella seemed to lose her mind in anxiety.

‘If it’s Rinne… It would be the twin escort. A few months ago, it would be when he separated from Rosanne and missed her?’

Even though she had to check, she burned the manuscript of the novel herself. Bella glanced around, turned behind her, and quickly checked her phone.

‘It must have been Chapter 50 when they separated… After that…’

The novel was only about them missing each other.

“Is that a problem…?”

Even her hand holding her cell phone was trembling in anxiety. At that moment, Bella almost lost her cell phone when she heard Kiehl’s call from behind.

“Bella, I made a lot of friends in the human world. I’ll introduce you next time.”

“Huh…?”

“Do you remember the kid Bella told me to be friends with when I was little? Her name was Myu.”

“Yes. I do.”

“She happened to be traveling together with me, and I’ll introduce you to her, too.”

“Then… Anyone else?”

At her question, Kiehl came closer. Bella glanced up at the taller him and slipped her cell phone into the pocket in her pants.

He patted the hand that Bella bit, and he smiled pretty.

“There’s also Rio… also a child named Rosanne.”

Bella felt Kiel’s face blush, and his heart beat faster.

‘…Thank god. It seems that nothing has changed.’

He then brought her hand to his lips and gave it a brief kiss.

“So, don’t worry.”

“…Ye, yes.”

Bella reached out with her other hand and stroked Kiehl’s hair.

“I’m proud.”

Although she spoke her words affectionately, her voice and her hand stroking him were still trembling.

“Aren’t you going to take away the holy sword?”

“First… Start with Kiehl’s treatment.”

She could only imagine that a terrible future would never come. Bella clasped Kiehl’s hand and forced a laugh.

He was responding to that smile as if nothing had happened.

‘…I guess she wanted me to have a relationship like in the book.’

Like that damn book…

— “You have to go strategically!”

Although Iwer’s strategy was for her to see him as a man, she only saw him as her younger brother. Kiehl suddenly realized that this love really needed a strategy.

Kiehl, who had only known through knowledge before coming to the Demon Realm, was gradually able to realize what kind of place this place was.

Other than that, only one thing was clear. Flowers were more beautiful when you looked closely, but here, the more Bella looked at these demons, the more angry she gets. Every hour, no, every ten minutes, she was getting angry with the demons.

“…Hey. I told you not to even come close to me if you have a lot of feet.”

“But, the guys need to be cleaned up when they’re all dead…”

When the centipedes came and repaired Bella’s room, she cut off all but two of the centipedes’ feet.

“If you are coming near me, come with only two feet.”

Kiehl thought it was a little cruel, though the demons didn’t react at all.

“Oh my God… The princess didn’t kill us, she just cut off our legs…!”

After that, with every single thing, the demons touched Bella’s temper.

“Hey… I told you not to get sap on my furniture.”

“I will work hard not to spill it!”

“If you work harder, more will come out!”

…From the demons who are moving furniture to the villa.

“Princess, when this human dies, can we eat it?”

“I told you to brush your teeth and open your mouth only then, right?”

…Even demons who stared at Kiehl while walking and babbled.

“Oh my, these crazy bastards cleaned with blood again?”

“Thank you!”

“….”

“She looked at us, called us crazy bastards!”

Even the demons who cleaned the villa. Each time Bella pulled out the summoning circled and connected her radio to Jenkins.

“Jenkins…”

“Don’t ask every hour, please.”

Only then did Kiehl understand why Bella urged Jenkins and Jenkins urged Rinne. He could see how Bella had endured.

Recalling the words Jenkins had said as he touched Bella’s hand, Kiehl held it in a soothing way.

— “Young Master, then, somehow, don’t let the Miss get excited.”

Bella then gazed at Kiehl and put a smile on her lips.

“Kiehl. I’m sorry, it’s hard to live here… Is it okay if you stay here for a while?”

“Yes. Don’t worry. It’s fun.”

“It’s not fun… Just one more day. Really, this is hell. Oh, it’s hell.”

Inside the villa organized after twists and turns. He thought there would be only monstrous things in the Demon Realm. However, it looked similar to Bella’s room in the mansion.

“Oh, I’m relieved now. Kiehl, can you stay here for a while?”

“Yes.”

“Haa. I have a lot of work to do.”

“Sorry.”

“What are you sorry for?”

She sat him on the edge of the bed and stroked his hair, “Well, sit here and rest until Pur comes with the sofa.”

Saying so, Bella stretched and yawned before grabbing the doorknob of the villa.

“I’m going to make some barriers here.”

Meanwhile, Kiehl sat on the edge of the bed and looked around the whole villa. Most of the furniture was black and red.

‘As expected, this is Bella’s taste.’

In addition, the furniture that came with quite expensive money from the human world stood out.

‘If I go back to the Imperial Palace, I’ll have to get a little more money.’

He was also paying attention to the useless ornaments. After a while, the door opened and Bella came in more exhausted.

“Haa… xxxx guys.”

Blood dripped from her hand as if something had happened outside.

“Cockroach bastards that appear again even if you kill them…”

There was no sign of blood dripping onto the red carpet.

‘Bella’s taste wasn’t red, but she had no choice but to pick red,’ Kiehl thought.

The next moment, someone knocked on the door of the villa twice, and a tentacle-like hand held out a basket through the crack. It was Belzeb, one of the great generals. This guy was, in Bella’s words, an alien, with a human body but an octopus face, and tentacle-like body all over his body.

“Yes, at least it’s good that you can listen well.”

It was an advantage to not always show his face like this in front of Bella because she didn’t want to see ugly things. She glanced at the basket he had handed over and rummaged through the herbs.

“Did you take just anything?”

“I’m not familiar with vegetables…”

“Xx, if this is the case, then why am I making you do it?”

“…Sorry.”

When she asked him to pluck herbs, it looked like he had plucked out all the grass-like things in the Demon Realm.

Bella began to lament as she sorted through a few of them.

“In the corner of the demon realm, there isn’t a single head, not even a single one.”

Putting them in a mortar and crushing them one by one to relieve stress, the sound of pounding the herbs became louder.

“I’m the only one here!”

“Bella…?”

“Useless bastards, I’ll have to kill them all.”

Kiehl’s mouth shut as he remembered what Jenkins had said.

— “Don’t you know that Miss’ violence is getting worse day by day?”

As she gathered the crushed herbs together, she sighed and stood up. Bella, who had already become sensitive, spoke quite heavily to Kiehl.

“Kiehl, take it off.”

At that moment, his heart sank.

He liked Bella, who always smiled brightly.

— “I want to see her go crazy, too.”

Even her terrifyingly angry appearance drives him crazy.

…Right now, he wanted to lie down and kiss her on the top of her feet.
