110 – Demon King’s Legacy #1

─Seongeum-ah, your dongsaengs are graduating-.

[T/N: “-ah” is like “-nim” but used to refer to close people or friends, dongsaengs means younger siblings]

The hesitant teacher finally opened his mouth. To which I responded as if I already knew.

Because there was only one reason why the eloquent teacher would be stuttering like this.

─I’ll get paid from my part-time job soon. I’ll share some to buy clothes when they enter college.

The teacher stroked his long side-hair in guilt.

─It must be difficult for you to live on your own. I’m sorry for always asking so much of you.

─They will also be adults when they graduate, so this will be the last time. They’ll also get part-time work of their own. Rather, any news about the thing I talked about?

—Ah, that. I got someone. I’m looking into it. In particular, there’s someone who said they’ve met last time....

My heart raced at the positive response. However, contrary to my feelings, the teacher’s expression was not so bright.

─Do you really want to see her? I’ve seen a lot of friends who went to find their mother after becoming adults, and there are many cases of not finding what they’ve been expecting to say the least.

My teacher wasn’t too keen on me finding my mother.

─Sometimes, some things are best left unknown.

But I was dying of curiosity.

Why did she leave me?

And after you left me, where and how were you living now?

So I started tracking the information of the woman, who was perhaps my mother, that left me at the orphanage. Now, it paid off and I was finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

But if we really did meet, what should we talk about?

Why was Aira here? Then when I turned, I saw high columns rising and the floor being covered with a colorful velvet carpet.

Before I knew it, I found myself at Angmar’s Palace.

Seuk-.

Aira, who was sitting on her high throne, rose.

─I’ll punish you for being late.

Aira pinched my cheeks and lifted me up. It hurted!

What was this?

It was then that I realized.

Ah, it was a dream.

Then, in an instant, everything around me began to ripple like water, before popping like a balloon.

* * *

Seuk-.

As I slowly opened my eyes, I could feel someone pulling my cheeks.

All I could see were dark stone walls, decorated with torches. This was no Angmar Palace.

Calmness immediately surged to help clear my thoughts.

Ah right, we got trapped in a secret room underneath the Draco Family’s manor. I must have fallen asleep and had a dream.
