Volume 1 - CH 3.12

Part 12

There were footsteps that were running to where Diablo was.

When he turned around, a whole face smiling Shera embraced him.

「Alright!!」

「Whoa……!?」

At his back, Rem was also there. Her eyes were wet and she was moved to tears.

Diablo became even more bewildered than the time he received Edelgart’s Martial Art.

「Wh, why, are you crying?」

「……I thought……that there was, no way I would be saved.」

「Uwahaahhan! Diabloo!」

「As you are now, you are my property! That is why, it is natural for me to protect you and it’s not like I fought for your sake! Things like gratitude are useless!」

Rem blushed.

「……S, so I’m your property. That’s true……As long as I have this slavery choker.」

Muttering that, she showed a smile that she hadn’t shown in a long time.

——Was that just now painful?

After he said something embarrassing, he wanted to die. This was why he hated personal communication.

Shera, who was embracing him the whole time, alternately looked at Diablo, who had gone silent, and Rem, who expressed a smile full of happiness.
