138fury. Deal with Lucia(4)
“Okay, let's deal..”
After calming down her anger, Lucia held out her hand to me..
It's a successful transaction. This allows us to receive guidance from Lucia..
The problem is that I'm stuck against the wall and can't reach out my hand.?
Did you realize that fact? Lucia plucked me from the wall with her outstretched hand..
“Why are you stuck against the wall? Then I stopped growing taller..”
“……Hehe, I'd like to tell you that I didn't get into it on my own..”
“Hmm, let's not worry about the little things. It's an alliance, right??”
“Hehe, it's trivial.…….”
Let's beat people up and not worry about trivial things. Isn't it too shameless to be shameless?.
As I stared, Lucia cleared her throat and avoided my gaze..
I guess he was embarrassed too..
‘Well, let’s just look at it like this. Because I gained so much.’
3Weekly personal guidance from Lucia.
three wish tickets.
Alliance with the Lucid family.
Until I saw something good(?) for my body here.
‘All I gave was information about the survivors of the Lester family and the condition of keeping quiet about the devil's curse..’
The transaction was completed with an overwhelming profit..
In particular, the alliance with the Lucid family can be said to be the biggest gain from this transaction..
One of the eight pillars supporting the empire.
Information, personnel, artifacts, funds, support, etc..
I will give you most of what I want.
It's a very rich family, so even if you give that much away, it won't hurt anything..
‘What should I ask for? money? Artifact? Or the command right to freely stroke Rodelin's head.?’
The image of Rodelin reluctantly giving up her head with a bright red face flashes before my eyes..
Okay, let's do this first favor..
The goal is to obtain the command right to stroke Rodelin's head as much as you like.!
That was when I was lost in a happy fantasy world..
“Well, this is an alliance between you and me personally..”
“……yes?”
The image of Rodelin that had been fluttering before my eyes disappeared in an instant..
You're taking away my command of petting.!
Anger surged throughout my body..
“Hehe, you're changing the details of the transaction at will. I guess it doesn't matter if I change it however I want.?”
“Well, what is it? Why are you so angry all of a sudden??”
“You stole something precious from me! You'll have to pay for it.!”
“……What is he saying now? Am I the one who lost something precious? Are you really going to get scolded??”
When Lucia raised her fist, her body automatically flinched and trembled..
It looks like he has PTSD. Because it was a situation where I could really die..
“Just listen first. Because this is all for you.”
Was that scene quite pitiful? Lucia lowered her fist and spoke her words..
“As I said before, in order to form an alliance with a family, the consent of the father and vassals is essential. It means you have to face them, and people like you will be instantly killed..”
“Hehe, is that really the case??”
“……That's why you get killed instantly, right? My father can't stand an arrogant bastard like you..”
It's just like Lucia said..
It may be because Marquis Luke is an extraordinary being, but from what I saw in the game, he looked like a lion in his prime..
If you even twitch your butt in front of him and provoke him, you will face death just like that..
“Then no information about me will be known..”
“that's right. For now, I plan to keep your existence a secret. I think putting you and your father face to face will cause a lot of annoying problems..”
Treating a good person like me like a problem child?!
She is truly a woman who has no eyes to see..
‘but… … Lucia's comment that it is too early to meet Marquis Luke has a point..’
Rodelin's tragic ending has been witnessed thousands of times..
I couldn't make a rational decision because of the rising anger..
But it's not a lie that I'll hit the Marquis Luke someday..
“So that's it now? The alliance is not a family, but an alliance between the two of us. Don't let your father know of your existence..”
Lucia's judgment is right..
Chapter 2 has just begun. It's time to protect yourself and increase your strength.
Above all, it is not a good idea to change the story too much..
‘The biggest strength I have is information.’
But contrary to my feelings, my mouth was pouting and sticking out..
This is because the command power to pat Rodelin’s head at any time is worth it..
“ha… … . Let's go slowly. Just having an alliance with me is great enough.?”
But it doesn't taste like stroking your head(?).
It's delicious when a strong girl who always stands upright gives her head without being able to do this or that.!
“……Something feels strangely off. what are you thinking now?”
“I consider it an honor to form an alliance with the great Lucia..”
“……It's suspicious..”
“Hehe, you're mistaken..”
“is it?”
Lucia, who was scratching her head, opened her mouth..
“I'm asking this just in case... … You know the exact details.?”
Trouble, worry, doubt, etc. A voice full of emotions.
Even though the subject was missing, it was easy to figure out what they were curious about..
The Lucid family and the devil. Contents of treaties concluded between parties.
I was asking if you knew the exact details about him..
‘Well, I have my doubts..’
Because I gave a comprehensive statement about the devil's curse on the Lucid family..
But it was an action for Lucia. She might have a listening ear somewhere..
“Hehe, it's good to be suspicious, but doubting a good person like me is not a good choice. Why isn’t there a saying, ‘Contemplation is a science’?.”
“That physiognomy is the problem!? Needless to say, words and actions! Now you are the most suspicious person on this continent.!”
That can't be possible. I am such a good person that even if I were to compete against an angel in a personality contest, I would put up a close fight..
The insult Lucia gave just now was no different from insulting an angel. That's right, angel?
“Then there is nothing we can do. I have no choice but to tell you in order to prove my innocence..”
The only ones that have to keep secrets are Lucid and 'those guys'.
I am a third party, so if I reveal it, their contract will not be broken..
“That day, the person who came to Lucid was the commander of the 2nd Corps. ah! Since he is possessed by a human rather than Kangrim, it would be more accurate to say that he is the possessed commander of the 2nd Corps..”
“……!”
“Just before the second blockade was breached, the 2nd Corps commander and the Lucid family had a conversation and reached an agreement. The contents are…….”
It was a time when I opened my mouth wide to continue speaking..
A hand tightly covered my mouth. The owner of the hand was, of course, Lucia..
“okay. Please shut up because I know what you're saying is true..”
Lucia looked around to see if anyone was there..
But my eyes were only on her.
Lucia approached me with a hand.
It smelled good. As the distance got closer, I was able to see Lucia's face clearly..
‘It's pretty, it's pretty.’
Moreover, it strangely resembles Rodelin. Well, it's natural since they are sisters..
‘Is this what Rodelin will look like when she matures??’
In the game, we do not see Rodelin as an adult..
As the challenge to the final boss ends in failure, the phrase 'The continent is engulfed in a sea of fire and only a small number of humans are bred to satisfy the devil' comes to mind..
And it's likely to be the same this time too..
It was a time when I looked at Lucia’s face and imagined Rodelin growing up..
“Why are you looking at me like that? I saw a pretty person for the first time?”
“Hehe, you have great confidence..”
“Because it's clear that I'm pretty.”
“And it's clear that he didn't get married..”
“this person… … A child of a young man……!”
But Lucia only trembled with her fists and could not do me any harm..
Not only does he know the devil's curse, but he also perfectly knows what happened that day..
Now you realize you have no choice..
‘Well, I'll try to find my helper through background investigation..’
Although it is worse than Charon, the Lucid family is also building an information network that is comparable to that of Charon..
But I won't find my helper.
‘Because that guy doesn't exist in the first place..’
In other words, what he said to Lucia, 'When I die, my helpers will all spread the word. The saying ‘I can’t kill you~’ was a bluff..
But Lucia has no choice but to accept my deal..
Because a moment’s judgment can lead a family down the path to extinction..
‘If they realized that there was no helper, they would try to find out how the secret was discovered through kidnapping and torture.…….’
There's a way out even then, so it'll be okay..
It makes no sense to kidnap a good human like me in the first place. yes?
“……Let me ask you just one thing.”
Lucia, who was shaking with anger, set the mood..
“Why are you doing this? There’s no reason to drag our family into it. Your purpose is to get revenge on those who made the Leicester family like that..”
Lucia is saying that her help will be enough..
Don't drag my family into me because of my personal vendetta..
But now Lucia is making a big mistake..
‘The Lucid family alone is not enough..’
The Marquis of Asizu is nothing more than a chess mate..
The person behind him is the real culprit, the dark shadow that brought down the Lester family..
‘The Lucid family alone is not enough. We need at least three pillars.’
That too is just a minimal pillar. In order to successfully complete the work, we must receive cooperation from five or more pillars, which is the majority..
‘First, I tried to meet Marquis Luke and obtain a pillar... … It's a failure.’
That's not the only reason I want to meet Marquis Luke..
‘Because you need help.’
I need help, but the entire Lucid family needs my help..
This is because as the story progresses, members of the Lucid family are in danger..
Crazy is basic, even killing innocent people or making contracts with the devil..
I had to help them to protect Rodelin..
But I can't tell Lucia about this situation..
Can not help it. I have no choice but to convey my sincere concern for Rodelin..
“Revenge is important, but... … It’s also important to protect your seniors..”
“Are you talking about Delrin? why? You're not even family.”
“Hehehe, I liked it.”
Lucia's eyes narrowed. Then, one corner of her mouth quirks up..
What can I say? Is it a smile that makes the viewer feel bad??
“Hmm~ So that was it? Yes, kids are like this too. It finally looks cute now.”
……What kind of ridiculous delusion did this woman have again?.
It was time to try to resolve a misunderstanding. Lucia spoke first..
“Our Delrin is also pretty good. Making a boy fall in love. I thought I would just play soldier for the rest of my life... … You don't have to worry.”
“That's not it…….”
“oh! Are you embarrassed? It's really cute. I thought she was a weird guy, but I guess she's still a kid. You're such a baby when it comes to love, baby. Is it your first love??”
“…….”
“Ouch! oh my god! You're so fresh!”
Lucia grabbed both my cheeks and started turning them around..
This is the level of delusion that has penetrated the planet..
‘What on earth are you thinking??’
The feelings I have for Rodelin are not love..
The devil's temptation continues to loom over thousands of playthroughs..
But Rodelin has never been corrupted..
I just have respect and awe for him..
‘Well, he's definitely cute when he's embarrassed.…….’
I'm not sure if I can say it's love.
“Ouch! oh my god! oh my god! Even my heart is pounding!”
“So I…….”
“You don't have to make excuses like that. What's so shameful about love?.”
Lucia’s know-it-all attitude and crooked smile.
I want to take that smile away and make you tremble..
‘In some ways, he is easier to bully than Rodelin... … She can't be bothered.’
I cannot because of my desire to be guided by Lucia..
huh? Wait, now that I think about it…….
‘……Aren’t the restrictions lifted? We've already agreed to a deal..’
Yes. It's already confirmed that Lucia will teach us..
In the meantime, I held out in order to slightly increase my chances of receiving Lucia's guidance..
This means there is no longer any reason to hesitate..
chin-.
grabbed my wrist.
Both of Lucia's wrists were shaking frantically while pinching both of my cheeks..
“Hehehe, that’s right. Senior Rodelin is attractive. So much so that it captures my heart..”
“also! Our Delrin is cute. Well, it might be hard to win his heart.”
“But the moment I saw Lucia, my mind changed..”
“……huh?”
Did you realize that things were going strangely?.
Lucia hastily pulled out the wrist that was caught..
“ah…….”
He let out a regretful sigh towards Lucia..
With a sticky smile.
“Oh, my mind has changed. What does that mean??”
“It means that I have fallen in love with Lucia. The moment I got punched by her earlier, I realized something about her. That this is love.”
“Oh no! That's not love! Usually people say that's pain.!”
“Love is accompanied by pain. And Lucia is the only one who caused me such great pain..”
“Rice, pervert! If you feel that way, you're a pervert.!”
Lucia began to slowly take a step back..
I wouldn't even dare to hit you..
Because I told you about the perversion that the more pain you inflict, the more you fall in love..
……I'll tell you just in case, my tastes aren't unique, I just set it up that way to tease Lucia. really.
“Oh, don't come!”
What stopped Lucia from taking a step back was the wall of the training ground, and it was also in a corner..
It feels like I'm seeing Rodelin shaking in the corner..
chin!
After firmly blocking Lucia with both arms to prevent her from escaping, he smiled a sticky smile..
“This is a big deal. To love her sister. This is it... … It must be fate.?”
“Well, how is that fate! You're a playboy!”
“It doesn't matter if you're a flirt. If only I could win Lucia's heart..”
Lucia's eyes began to twinkle..
Lucia is not immune to this because she has never dated a man..
He's the perfect person to make fun of.
“Me, I'm an old maid. She's an unpopular girl…….”
“The men of the world do not have the eyes to see. If it were me, I would propose right away..”
“Ah, ah... … no. My, my virginity…….”
Lucia sat down and covered her chest with both arms..
I don’t know why chastity is mentioned here. I was just playing around(?).
‘Phew… … All my stress melts away.’
Since you gave me a harsh scolding once, you won't bother me again..
It was when I was trying to help Lucia up..
Grumbling-!
“Zero! Sister is here! I guess I wasn't squeezing it out.?”
Luna opened the training ground door wide and stiffened as soon as she saw us..
No, maybe it's not Luna who came in now.…….
Might be a murder tank.
