59 Episode XIX: To Rescue Sherry

"Oh, I wanted to go to Leo's house too ~"

I was holding Leo's stuffed animal as I lay down in my cot.

Leo made it for me the first time he came to my room.

It's weird to have a beak even though it's not a bird, but a cute demon stuffed animal.

I can't sleep without this stuffed animal all the time.

Yesterday, as usual, I tried to waste time trying to get to your father Leo... but he told me no.

Well, I'm not committed to going that far because I can see you at school... but I knew you wanted to go...

"Ah, I want to see Leo"

Concon

Oh, you're not hearing me now, are you? Embarrassing!

I know the maids know I like Leo... but I'm still embarrassed.

Looking at the door thinking so, there was no one there.

The door is open...

"Leo is hot... well, if he's that strong, he's hot too"

When I got up concerned, I heard that voice coming from behind me.

"Huh?"

I wasn't surprised much more words came out of it.

Turning around, there was a red-haired man.

"Hi, how are you? I'm sorry, but I'm gonna let you kidnap me."

I got wrapped up in something while I was confused.

And I was in charge, and I found myself carried away.

I'm wrapped up trying so hard to escape. I moved so hard to strip off the cloth... but the man is strong and I'm not going to be able to move at all.

"Oh, can you still move? But it's time to get sleepy."

The man mocked, surprised that I could move.

Speaking of which... I think I've seen this guy with red hair somewhere...

Oh, that's the man you've been raiding at my party!

This man, for sure... was fighting each other with Mr. Damien.

What do I do, I'm afraid...

Leo, help me......

"Okay, we're here. Are you sleeping in a boulder?

After a while, he stripped off the cloth that was holding me while saying that he thought the red-haired man had stopped somewhere.

I'm not sleepy. Of course, I had my eyes open.

"Oh, that? Why are you awake?

"I don't know. I can't help wondering why you think I'm going to be sleepy."

I desperately suppressed my fears and showed the red-haired man how strong he was.

Then... the man pretended to think of something and grabbed my arm.

"Yeah - do you even wear some kind of magic equipment? You don't have anything on your arm... Oh, could it be this pendant?

"Oh, no! Don't take it!

I resist desperately.

I don't want anything taken because this is my precious treasure.

"Oh, hit? Did you stop being so strong earlier?

"Please. Don't take my pendant!

"Not if you're obsessed with something like this, Princess. From now on, you're in trouble."

"Hey, what are they doing?

"Come on? I don't know because hauling is my job. Well, I'd like to finish the job, so I'll take it."

That said, the red-haired man easily peeled off my arm hiding the pendant and grabbed the pendant.

"Yes, no!!

(Leo, help me!

I skipped reading to Leo before he took it.

I'm sure Leo would help.

"You're right about this...... I'll even give it to your favorite Leo. Can you help me? Good night, then."

I got wrapped in cloth again.

Then... I was suddenly attacked by a strong sleeper...

Leo......

SIDE: Leons

I'm currently in a hurry to get geared up and talk to Anna about how to find Shelley.

(How do you think I can find Shelley?

(Right...... you can find me with the magic of Master Leo contained in the love necklace...... for some reason I can't currently find it)

(I can find you, but I can't? What do you mean?)

(Yes, I don't know why, but I can't find the magic of the pendant)

So you're saying it was broken?

(I see... then I need to build something new...)

(Right. I think I would be more sure to find it if I made the item)

"Okay, we need to hurry up and build the item"

I took Anna off and stuck my hand in my backpack.

"Oh - you're working hard. I hope you can help my dear Shelly."

I heard an unexpected voice from behind, so I hurried back.

"Oh, you..."

There he was... Allen, my uncle's rival...

Why are you here?

"Hi. You live in a fine house. And I'm surprised there are so many guards."

Wouldn't it make sense if those golems had secrets too......

"So? Why did you come to me?

In the guise of calm, I asked questions.

I don't know what it means for Allen to come here......

"Oh, I thought I'd give you this"

Allen threw something at me.

I got it in a hurry.

"This is..."

What was in my hand was a love necklace.

"That, my dear Shelly, was very important. I hope I can help you again this time. Bye."

"Hey!"

Returning my gaze from the love necklace to catch Allen... there was no one there anymore...

"Damn... watch it later"

I disappeared. I was so grumbled at Allen I was ready to build an item.

That must be a declaration of war against me...

Then finding Shelley is more important now than Allen.

I tried to use the magic of creation with the magic stone by giving it away from the backpack.

Concon

"Now what? You can come in."

"Excuse me. Sorry to keep you busy. We have a customer who says he wants to meet with Master Leo."

It was Mr. Eric who came in.

"Huh? At this hour?

'Cause it's the middle of the night, right?

"Yes, but I wasn't the kind of person I could say no to..."

Someone you can't say no to?

"Who the hell is coming?

"That's... Prince Cliff"

"Ku, Mr. Cliff? Okay, I'll be right there."

Why is Mr. Cliff here?

What are you thinking?

Maybe this time the killer is Mr. Cliff's mother.

And yet why did you come to me?

With that in mind, I went into the reception room.

"Hi, Mr. Leo. It's been lunch."

"Duh, thanks."

"I'm sorry you came all of a sudden in the middle of the night. But I need to tell you something right now."

"What do I have to tell you?

"Yes, I want to tell you about the kidnapping of Shelly this time."

"Hey, do you know something!?

Is that what you're telling me?

It's against you, isn't it?

"Yeah... I know everything... I don't know where Shelly is or who the killer is..."

Hey, why are you telling me that?

"Duh, what do you mean? No way... Mr. Cliff's not the killer, is he?

"Am I the killer... right. I could be the killer, too. So when I tell you where Shelly is, Leo, I'm going to turn myself in to the Emperor."

I don't know what that means anymore.

"Huh? Uh... Mr. Cliff asked you to be a sneaker?

"No, it's my mother... but I'm sorry I couldn't stop you...

You may have asked Ivan or Alex, but I'm actually weak...

I've always been afraid that my mother would piss me off, and I've lived to this day just like your mother told me.

Like an emperor... so I could be an emperor... I've been telling myself that.

So I couldn't even stop Shelly when I found out she was going to be kidnapped...

I'm a really cheating man... because I chose not to get mad at myself over my sister's life "

That explains it to me. Mr. Cliff looked weak without feeling as bright as he did when he met him at noon.

I see, this is this guy's vegetable.

"Then how did you get here? Couldn't Mr. Cliff's mother stop you?

"Your mother is missing."

"Huh?"

Missing?

"I ran away before that because I know I can catch you. Probably right here. And Shelley."

Mr. Cliff took out a piece of paper and gave it to me.

There... there was a map.

"Are you in a place that says this?

"Yeah. I'm so sorry. The truth is I should go... maybe if I saw your mother... so I thought I'd close the road to becoming an emperor myself without her."

"Really... is your mother that scared for Mr. Cliff?

"Yeah, I can't go against it."

I guess Mr. Cliff kept telling his mother to be an emperor since he was a little girl and was educated (brainwashed) so she couldn't resist.

"Really? Then I'll be in a hurry to help Shelly. Are you sure this is the place?

I'll ask for confirmation.

"Yeah. Hang it in Cliffith Vector's name... and whether you say it or hang my name won't compensate for anything. But I want you to believe me."

Mr. Cliff has asked me to take a good look in my eyes and believe him.

Probably not lying.

"Okay. Believe me, just let me ask you one last question"

"I'll answer anything you can."

"Why did you come to me? Wouldn't it have been nice to be at your uncle's or your good friend Brother Ivan's?

"Yeah... I was wondering if it would be happier for Shelly to be helped by you"

"What?"

"Don't be surprised. Well, that's not the only reason. Leo, I hear you're strong. And I can feel your strength here. [M] Probably stronger than Mr. Damien at all, right?

"Wow, you know what I mean?

"Yeah. I'm confident in my eyes when I look at people, right?

"What do you mean?

"Yeah... I have an unusual attribute. Forensic magic works."

"Forensic magic?

What's that?

Think of it as the ability to determine the value of things.

"I see..."

When I say Shelly's charming magic, the royal family has an inexplicable magic...

Yeah... magic to identify value... what an ability for a king.

"Then it's time for me to turn myself in. I asked for my sister, Leo."

That's what Mr. Cliff said and got up.

"Yes, I'll take care of it"

"Yeah, I got it. Bye."

Mr. Cliff turned his back on me and left the room.

"Okay, let's go."

I'm on my way to rescue Shelly.
