Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 293

"Fucking devil bastard."

The ring that Esmuët had given me was clearly worn on my index finger, and I don't know why I felt a strange sense of strangeness not only in my index finger but also in my middle finger, but it was obvious what this sensation, which I had never experienced before, meant..

At the very end, you come to the end and put a curse on me? I got goosebumps for a moment because I remembered the demon who got cursed by mistake and went crazy without being able to catch up..

"It's so absurd, really. In that short moment, the curse was completed.?"

Unless you are trying to dump a lot of tributes, it is a curse to require a long preparation period in any form. Even if hundreds of people are pledged as collateral, there are restrictions, and they make it like roasting beans right in front of your eyes. I couldn't tell if it was because of the blood money that bastard had to spend to possess me, but from the perspective of the victim, I wouldn't mind killing him twice..

After striking a double curse at the fallen demon, I put my sword in its scabbard, roughly draped Siegfried's great sword over my shoulder, and, holding the needle, slowly slowed down my fall as if Siegfried would have been amazed if he had seen it. To be honest, I felt an inexplicable sense of comfort as I felt free fall for the first time in a long time, but in that short moment, I climbed so high that I had no other option unless I wanted to fall to my death..

"...You're needlessly pretty."

The capital city, which had already fallen into darkness, was creating a very beautiful night view. It looks more beautiful than when I saw the lights of civilization shining in the distance at a night shooting range as a military trainee. It's hard to believe that this is a world where a blind devil could cause such trouble..

Of course, unlike the beautiful night view, the various lights rushing towards the academy were a source of trouble for me. It would have been nice if that junk had been neatly laid out underground, but I have no idea how to package it. Right now, the academy is full of people running in my direction or looking up, regardless of whether they are students or faculty. I'm sure the final struggle, the pseudo-breath, is what caught the eye..

"Ugh, I hope there are no casualties.."

The only consolation is that the place where the breath that opened the huge sinkhole directly from the basement was fired is the outdoor training ground behind the academy. I remember that it was a place that was created with great care for the purpose of tactical training according to the terrain... Unless someone unlucky happened to be managing the facility today, the place was completely deserted at this time..

At the same time, it was also a place where I would not encounter anyone while going down the sinkhole again. It was a great relief to not have to worry about being noticed right away since I could not control the speed of descent..

After going down for a while, Siegfried, who was waiting for me below, shouted..

"mary poppins!"

"i won't say anything."

I didn't have the energy to argue, so as soon as I landed, I responded by throwing a great sword instead, and as I sat down, Cheryl came running towards me. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw her not only in tears, but also running towards me with tears in her eyes as a rabbit..

"Eldmia!"

"Yeah, it's okay. It's all over..."

So I let my guard down.

Cheryl used the speed she was running at and landed a knee kick right in my face..

"You crazy bastard!!"

I thought it was so fierce that I was glad that I hadn't removed my physical enhancements yet, but the attack, which required less strength than I expected, was a lot different from what I was used to. The sudden attack that was made like that was an attack, but more than anything, it was surprising that two insults that threw away all formality came out of Sheryl's mouth without any hesitation..

Aside from the pain, it was an attack with all my weight, so I fell backwards with Cheryl, and Cheryl, who was a learned child, grabbed my mount and started hitting my chest, shedding tears like chicken shit..

"Fuck you! Fuck! You crazy bastard! A bastard who is crazy because he wants to be beaten!"

The knee kick did a very small amount of damage because I put some weight on it, but the hand hitting my chest couldn't even make a fist and was shaking so I couldn't even give it a massage. When I fought with him while working as an adventurer, I fought very calmly, so I was not immune to such dramatic battles, so I guess I was quite shocked..

To be honest, I just chose the method that was most certain to sever his head, and I had no idea that the bastard would suddenly fly up like Suzaku, so it was a very unfair situation, but since I made people worry, I didn't think it was something I should say, so I stayed silent for now. I decided to do it.

But that's it, I haven't had a face this messed up in 2 years, so I'm having a hard time holding back my laughter..

If you laugh here, you'll be treated like a real psychopath and beaten like a dog.?

"Ugh. And then what if I die? Why on earth would you do something like that?."

In the end, by the time the embarrassed Siegfried and Saint Teneasi approached and tried to stop him, there was only Cheryl, who had already lost all strength and was babbling incoherently and crying loudly. He was crying so desperately that anyone who didn't know him would definitely think he was dead..

"Stop crying. Eye makeup is removed."

"Hehehe. Crazy guy!."

Sheryl took another hit, but it was more funny than painful. I ruffled Cheryl's hair and decided to put out the fire first..

"As I came down, it seemed like people were coming from all directions because the demon bastard had shot so hard. My plan seems to have gone a bit wrong, is there any way??"

"Hmm."

Siegfried, who was stroking his chin while storing his sword in subspace, thought for a while before opening his mouth..

"You don’t want to be associated with powerful people, right? First, let's go into detail later. Rua is a princess in name and name, right? I'm an expert at this."

"Would you mind??"

"I think I should ask my younger brother about that, right? Since you said that, I don't think there's any need to ask.."

Aside from shrugging his shoulders as if it was no big deal, Siegfried continued speaking while tapping his temple..

"But that and the numerous questions I want to ask are separate. I can't get over it this time."

"Good for you. Since it's going to be hard to move properly for a while anyway, I think it's a waste of time.."

It's not that it's not, but after removing the reinforcement, I started to feel pain as if I was going to have a bone disease tomorrow. For a moment, the potion given by Shadow Foot passed through my mind, but since I wasn't hurt anywhere, I decided to just endure it..

They say that if you save money, you will lose money, but now is the right time to save money..

◈

When I came up to the ground with my exhausted body, not only the academy faculty but also the Holy Knights of the Holy Light Cross were already crowding around and controlling the surroundings..

Since they were monitoring not only the area where the sinkhole was created but also the entrance we used, I wondered if the kids had testified in advance, but that was not the case at all. Apparently, they also thought that the basement of the Academy was the most likely location and were making preparations in advance..

Fortunately, those of us who solved the case were not interrogated or detained. It was just that I had periodic interviews with investigators for the sake of investigation. Even then, I had difficulty even moving around, so the story was organized in the form of recuperation at home..

Asilier, who heard all of this directly from my mouth, almost fainted again, but it ended with mild dizziness, as if she had developed some immunity. Maybe it helped that she knew in advance that she would be caught up in the incident, but she couldn't bring herself to present such a hypothesis in front of the parties..

I'm already in so much pain that I'm dying, but I thought it would be really hard if I got hit here even more..

"There's a problem with the magic engine. It's nothing to worry about. I think it's some kind of muscle pain."

As the night passed by like that, Seneran, who came running with his teacher after hearing that I had collapsed, finished the diagnosis with a sigh of relief, and Asilier and I also breathed a sigh of relief. Still, it was true that she needed to calm down, so she threatened her not to mess around for a while, and it was after midnight when she and her teacher left..

I had a lot to think about, but I was tired for the day, so I decided to sleep without thinking about anything. When I woke up after half a day's sleep, I began to hate my past self for passing responsibility to my present self without any worries... Fortunately, the incident began to be resolved more easily than I had worried..

Perhaps because this was already done under the tacit agreement of the Empire, the Kingdom, and the Holy Light Cross Society, the investigator who visited my house did not ask me questions, but merely told me what I needed to know, conveyed the 'official' results, and told me what to keep in mind..

I felt as if I was being helped by a lawyer to organize the answers and words I needed to say. Thanks to this, I was able to get the results I initially wanted without much effort..

"Unfortunately, there were people who witnessed Ega cutting off the head of the 'Evil Dragon'... so this could not be attributed to the imperial hero.."

Yeah, roughly.

Some students who were faithfully reviewing their studies without falling into a sinkhole said they saw me. To be honest, it was suspicious enough that I wanted to check its authenticity, but other than that, I decided to skip it since the story ended with most of the credit being given to Cheryl Party..

Because nothing goes perfectly as planned. Things like that happen, too.

"Lastly, the corpse of the evil dragon is purchased by the royal family and various magic libraries for study. As for the others, I have delegated the decision-making authority to Ega, so I would appreciate it if you would consider it until your next visit and let me know.."

The body of Crumelia, the salt dragon that was revealed as an evil dragon in an official event to erase its connection with the devil, did not disappear. To be precise, that is how the excuse of being an evil dragon was established..

It was unknown whether it was the result of a rule-breaking incarnation or an unintended remnant of Crumelia's unique ability, but it appears to be of very high research value as it is a remnant left behind by an archdemon whose specialty is transformation. There was no problem in selling it right away, but we ended the conversation by thinking about it until the next visit in three days..

It could be said that he was a helpful bastard, as he definitely gave the Great Devil a chance to make money..
