Duke, Please Repent! chapter 173

34. While the Duke was away

(12)

The Heretic Inquisitor passed the broken demon over to one of the paladins and checked Zeon's condition.

While I was watching him putting his hand on Zeon's forehead and breathing divine power, someone tapped my shoulder from behind.

Ah, is Euges here?

you]. no more need to be vigilant

It's like By the way, is your body okay? You don't know how surprised I was that the door suddenly closed. I was thinking about whether I should shoot the bow right away, but suddenly the presence I felt inside the mansion suddenly increased... .

Eugese said as he folded and unfolded his right finger.

It was a story about waiting for the decisive moment, fearing that the arrows he had shot would make me more dangerous.

Judging by her unconscious actions, perhaps she was vigilant with her bowstring pulled.

I couldn't confirm it because of the gloves, but I was sorry and thankful that I remembered her blushing fingers.

Thank you. Thanks to Eugene, I didn't hurt a single hair!

If Shion wasn't hurt, that's it.

she smiled roundly.

By the way, how did you do it?

"How are you doing?"

"There's no way they could have been hiding and revealing themselves without a reason.

Didn't On do something?

Those words were filled with curiosity and an anxious expectation.

But the moment I put the truth in my mouth, it disappeared and was nothing more than a feeling like a word, a mirage.

"Uh, that's it's not a big deal, it's just the devil king bastard, you bastard," he said."

just as expected.

Eugene's lips, which had drawn a gentle curve, turned into a one.

Zion .

you].

I'm going to get mad.

Yes?

I'm going to be scolded by Serpens-sama.

Yes?!

With a cold expression that Euges had never seen before, with a more determined voice than ever.

It was confirmed in three steps.

Seo, no way. Three..., the duke has a soft heart, so he can't scold anyone and do things like that.

"No. I can assure you.

You're going to get mad.

At first I was like, 'Oh, you're going to get scolded by this?' But in the end, they just let it go.

Somehow, Serpens-sama said he was overprotective of Zion, but now I understand. Wasn't this the first time or two?

That, that...

You say that you take good care of your own safety, but at an important moment, you sacrifice yourself like this... How can Serpens-sama not worry about Zion?

"Hey what is it?"

If I had to pick a word that was not related to me, I think that one of the words in ToplO would be sacrifice, but Euges seems to have a different opinion.

Serpense would be too excited to meow and pass by.

"Is what you just said true?"

Evil!! Whoa, that's a surprise...!

I was so absurd that I couldn't say anything, and I was standing blankly, and suddenly, a heretic inquisitor appeared and talked to me without a word.

I was really surprised at how hoarse her voice was.

Absolutely not. I was intentionally trying to reveal those who were hiding...

"I never thought there would have been such an intention."

When Euges misunderstood it, it was very absurd, but it's a bit disappointing that he doesn't do it.

Anyway, that means 'You mean demon king bastard, you bastard?

I know I'm not talking about sending you to a dangerous place to take your time, but that doesn't mean you're asking me to kill you.

I didn't mean to stick your neck out.

"Of course not."

"Then why did you do such a dangerous thing?"

The Heretic Inquisitor took a step closer, as if trying to press, looking down at me with a stern expression and said:

Squeezed by the faint scent of blood from him and its momentum, I unknowingly took a step back.

"Well, by the way, when I provoked the devil earlier, you didn't say anything."

"Of course, in front of an incapacitated opponent.

I thought it was a rush.

Then I'm going to be a rude person? I'm not that kind of person.

Sometimes it's better to be cunning than reckless.

He frowned when he said that, like an angry person.

'Are you really scolding me right now?'

As soon as I get a bunch of warnings that I'm going to be scolded by the serpenes, I'll get scolded by the pseudo serpens.

I feel so weird. It's not a tasting experience... .

But what should I do about the unfairness! The devil keeps driving me to be a devil...! I know that my opponent is a devil, but still being called a devil by a devil is like a dog to a dog that is worse than a dog. It's like being insulted, you know what it feels like?

I don't know at all...

Are you going to stay silent while hearing evil insults from the evil one? It's because the person you're talking about anyway? That's not the case!

Of course!"

Well .

That's why I shouted. Demon king bastard, bastard'!

Oh, I see. I understand Zion's faith well, so please calm down now.

ok, passed

Serpence is at least convinced that it won't hurt me, but I'm still not sure about this Dan Inquisitor.

At least, I want to avoid being scolded by him even when I see the red blood of a demon splattered on his white uniform.

"But the danger remains the same, and from now on, evil ah, no evil "

"Are you a demon worshiper?"

Yes. Do not provoke a demon worshiper.

Yeah-!

why?

no.

The Heretic Inquisitor stepped back Banbo with a look as if he was seeing something very bizarre.

I was already suspenseful to what he did with his appearance resembling Serpence, so I guess I was treated too comfortably without realizing it.

I need to restrain myself now.

"By the way, how about Xeon?"

It doesn't have a long-term effect, but it seems to have been struck by a kind of black magic that allows you to perform simple commands. The magic has already been broken and the ashes of the black magic have been purified. There are no injuries except for minor bruises, so don't worry.

Then you are safe

If there is any aftermath, he has no face to see his family in Ribelon.

Before that, to the demon worshiper...

" to the monkey, what?"

It's nothing. You'll find out if you interrogate him anyway...

It looks like there are still points left.

I did my best to make everything the monkey said nonsense, but I wonder if it was a little lacking.

It was.

'Should I just close my eyes and add more dill?'

My heart was weak, so I couldn't do it.

Anyway, what he's saying is nothing more than the devil's imagination full of imagination, so don't believe it too much.

"I have that kind of discernment."

So what's the problem?

In order to break the reverence and belief in the demon king that the evil one has, 'Tenebrio is the god created by the demon king himself.

did you say

But that's part of what I think he told me.

'At least I'm a soul sent by Luxmea, doesn't it make more sense than that I'm a messenger from God?'

I have a conscience, so I have no idea that I am worthy of a messenger from God.

If you are a messenger from God, you must have a divine and noble taste like Serpens.

One day, Serpens suddenly came with wings on his back and said, 'From today onwards, God

I am confident that I will not be surprised even if I say something like 'The first day of the doctor's messenger'.

On the other hand, what about me?

Of course, when you get to know, no one is as deep and serious as me, but when you see someone you don't know, it's easy to misunderstand you as a gossip.

Hearing that I am a messenger from the gods, the heretical inquisitor's devotion will plummet and he may return to the world, saying that he will no longer be able to serve as a minion for Luxmea.

Thanks for your cooperation. It's as if the interrogation of the demon worshipers we caught today

As it turns out, in addition to paying a bounty . I'll see you again.

It would be nice if you could tell me a little bit about what you're going to do.

Ah! Are you coming to see the Duke?

"Um that's right. The principle is not to meet as much as possible, but since I borrowed a person from the duke family, I think it's right to say hello even after the death report."

He was saying that there was nothing he could do, but he seemed strangely reluctant.

As far as possible, it is recommended

It is a matter, but there is no law that says it has to be.

However, considering that the Heretic Inquisitor keeps that principle like a sword, I am concerned that he was in charge of this case.

He's a really unpredictable person.

Why is Inquisitor Heretic?

Yes?

It's just that Eirich-sama accidentally joined the sect. I heard that he originally belonged to the duke's family...

It's like a crazy suspense family. Expression change takes less than 0.1 seconds

doesn't seem to be

It's not even breathing life, but just a frosty expression makes my spine shiver.

I have no intention of threatening the position of Duke Prasidus. In the first place, I resigned voluntarily. If I had, I would have left the church 10 years ago and rejoined the duke's family.

I didn't mean to ask like that...

I wonder why he voluntarily resigned

did it

I have nothing more to say on the subject.

"I was just curious, so I asked "

what can't i say

Judging by his sensitive behavior, it is possible that many words were exchanged due to his young age when Serpens ascended the duke 10 years ago.

Some of them lined up and went to the heretic inquisitor for nothing, wondering what to do to regain the seat they lost to their younger brother.

I would have played li

' I guess I was too lazy to get the answer I was looking for?'

Still, I got a sense of who he was.

If you've already met, it's nothing to worry about, but even if it's still, I think it'll be okay if Lee Jung Do-do Serpens meet.

Surprised to grow up and surprised to see the lid of the chest does not mean that there is no worry at all, but it is not like looking in the mirror for a day or two... .

Before we meet, I read that it's okay

Leave it alone, wouldn't it be okay if I stayed by your side?

We'll take care of this after all, so you're good to go.

With those words, the heretic inquisitor called the paladin holding the zeon to us, and he turned to the other paladins.

"Aren't you awake yet?"

I heard you were weak, so I didn't wake you up on purpose.

I heard that there was nothing wrong with Xeon's eyes still closed.

The paladin replied to the puzzled words.

In other words, can it be regarded as a state of being asleep in a state of fainting?

There is no other comfortable guy in the world.

I felt some injustice, but that doesn't mean I can't wake up a sleeping child.

A person who wakes up a person who sleeps well is eating well but is so bad that it can be compared to a person who steals food.

"Come here. I will carry you home."

No, please this way.

Why Eugene?

That's because I'm stronger.

There is no disagreement with that statement, but I wonder if it would be more beneficial to Zeon's image to return to being carried by his older brother than to return to being carried by an outsider.

It's better for me, the older brother, to take responsibility here.

I don't mean to ignore Shion, but... are you really okay? Even the duke's house?

I don't think it'll be fine at all.

"Then will it be half and half?"

If it's half and half as Shion says... Joe, okay! I'll lift my legs, no, my upper body!

When I said half and half I meant half the street. It was never meant to literally lift the body in half.

So, this is a strange reaction from Eugenes.

I know very well what she usually thinks of me.

I'll just take you to the duke's residence just like this.

Hearing Eugene's words, he must have misunderstood, even the paladin who was holding Xeon intervened.

It is strange to go back in the arms of an outsider, but it is also quite strange to go back in the arms of an outsider.

I thought for a moment that I should have just woke him up, but I stopped because I hated seeing him sleeping so hard.
