Duke, Please Repent! chapter 145

31. Duke's Dream (8)

At the choice of frivolous words that could only be used in the author's street, nobles and priests alike coughed and felt uncomfortable.

However, his words were not buried.

Again, because of that strong remark, I hoped it would remain strong in people's minds.

Me, the author is now lying

There is!

That's right! You shouldn't believe what such an ignorant person says!

It was so urgent that Sir Stein, who only spoke through the earl's mouth, spoke directly.

Count Ferrarius forced himself to fix his head in front of Sir Stein, who was standing behind him.

At first glance, his expression looked like he had been framed and distorted with anger.

'It's a face I want to ask how the hell happened.'

It would have been a spectacle if he really looked into it, but it must have been that he wasn't that indecisive.

Rather, the fact that Kroman is still alive means that someone has safely unleashed his brainwashing in the right way.

'I heard it was great, but didn't you know it was this much?'

Sir Stein looked at Kroman with a confused expression, and said, 'I can't ?' He turned to Serpence.

And Serpens who received that gaze

Is..

"It's okay that's not enough that's a lie Yes, I knew that accusing an innocent victim with false charges and sending them to jail it was an act that deserved criticism . However, it was an inevitable choice in order to protect the victim from the demon worshipers.

He was doing that, knowing clearly that he wasn't talking to himself.

Although I was not looking at his face, I could fully imagine what kind of expression he was acting through his lines.

'You must have opened your eyes wide and covered your mouth with one hand, with your eyes wide open as if you were shocked by the insulting remark you heard for the first time.'

Unsurprisingly, I could see his left shoulder slowly rising.

Then, he slowly half-closed his wide, startled eyes, and cast long eyelashes around his eyes, and must have made an expression full of regret and pity for Croman, who must have suffered.

You know! I am only grateful to the Duke of Prasidus. If it wasn't for the Duke, I would...!

Ah... Thank you for thinking that way. But whatever the reason, I had to lie.

You mustn't listen to those demon worshipers! That's clearly what they're after! Damn you bastards!!

It is said that a good actor immerses not only himself but also the other actors.

'Croman, why are you adjusting to that again]?!'

Like someone who tells a lie for the first time.

At the words of Serpens, who complained of pain in his conscience and muttered mournfully, Kroman became completely engrossed and the road ran wild.

'I can't imagine the expression on Serpence's face, but I'm still going crazy to see it!'

I know what kind of expression he is making, but the difference from what he actually sees is negligible.

Where is his face that can only be realized with imagination?

'My child is performing passionately at the curatorial meeting], am I the only one who can't see it! Does this make sense?!'

Taking today's lesson as a lesson, I thought to myself that I shouldn't even have to carry a desk mirror with me.

F, this is not what I said to Duke Prasidus...

A voice of perplexity was heard from somewhere.

It was Sir Stein who suddenly became a curse for being a liar who could not be eaten by Serpens.

In the eyes of those who looked at him, Sir Stein was all wrong. That bastard who worships the devil.'

Mr. Kroman here has been brainwashed by black magic, and in a completely different way than is commonly known. Dark energy has penetrated deep into his brain. It could cause fatal damage to the body, but if it wasn't cleaned right away, it would have resulted in death.

Sir Stein tried to correct his words, but Serpence, who knew everything and was doing a live show, could not listen.

"Fortunately, it was within my ability range, so I was able to cure it, but

If I hadn't awakened, even that might not have been possible.

Divinity was sufficient. The important thing was control, so that must have been a lie.

Those who have been through that, now that the brainwashing is over. Now, there's no reason to point out someone else as a lie.

"That, that, that "

He muttered, forgetting that Sir Stein had to refute.

Like him, what Serpens had to say was not to be known so easily.

In [Master of the Holy Sword], it was information that I learned through experience.

Didn't you say this to Sir Palsum?'

If he did, he would have given him a glance at least once, even reflexively, but there is no sign of that.

If possible, I hope you misunderstand that there may be spies among the demon worshipers... .

I've never heard of brainwashing like that!

"I also came to know through this incident. So my brainwashed

When he finds out that he is still alive, he fears that the demon worshiper, who only believed in brainwashing and showed his frivolous face, would harm him... . It was unavoidable that he was sent to prison."

Well, then you want to say that my assistant is a demon worshiper right now?!

Instead of Sir Stein, Count Ferrarius took up the objection, but was struck with a fatal blow.

His face went red when he realized that the frivolous demon worshiper was referring to his aide.

"I can only think of that under the current circumstances."

Isn't that enough, Duke Prasidus? It's fair to say that he, as well as his assistant, is a demon worshiper.

Yes. I think what the Duke of Argento said was correct.

Serpence answered in a bitter voice. The saddest and most complicated feelings have been conveyed.

Well, then I... Who is the author! Isn't the family dead?

Isn't it the same?!

The anxious Count rolled his eyes and pointed to the person who had caught his eye. He was the one who perpetrated the scroll terror on the Duke of Argento.

Actually, I have been questioning it from the beginning. If, as Count Ferrarius said, it was just a simple terrorist incident, not an alienation, I don't know why I had to work while threatening ordinary people.

"There is a convenient trick called brainwashing, which idiot shows his face to a sane person and sends him away.

go. Duke Prasidus seems to want to say something like that.

you're right.

The radical words Serpens could not bear because of his external image, the Duke of Argento spoke instead.

'I mean, this guy has a really hard life... .'

It's not a conspiracy you made up, it's someone else's plot, but it's so hard to talk about it.

"The purpose of this case is not terrorism itself, but rather to create confusion and antagonism.

I think it is in Everyone knows that no one will believe anything you say while you've been brainwashed. So, in order to create a situation where they were forced to commit a crime .

Serpence wanted to play the emotion that was too tragic just by imagining it.

As if forcibly suppressing the emotions that were rising inside, 'Ummm .' and swallowed the hoarse voice with difficulty.

. The dead are the original people who lived in the house. And really the author.

is the family of I think we should investigate.

The fact that the family was taken hostage was not of their own will, but of others. So, to say that Solertia ordered Duke of Argento to be baptized with scroll magic.

'What killed them'.'

They're really family, but that's the only thing they worship the devil, so they didn't get cooperation to give false testimony.

The real family stole it and took a stranger and killed it.

If it's not me, I'll just live with one family

Years later, I acted like a family member... .

'Wow, either way is the real bad guy, right?'

It is a very cruel story to be accepted by the external version of Pure Fence, so it is understandable that the acting fence is doing that.

He raised his bowed head.

'With the rising tantrums and rage in your eyes. But are you trying to make up a terrifyingly sad face that makes you cry at any moment?'

Serpens's head moved.

The mansion bomber that started this case

Starting with Sir Stein. Then he glanced at Count Ferrarius.

Hey, this is a carrier!

A fool who knows nothing but conspiracy. Count Ferrarius, the carrier, shouted.

Hey, isn't it just a matter of buying one drug and putting it together?! Hearing that purchase,

Stop it. Now..., isn't it now? Mr. Croman has been completely cut off from the outside world and has only been in prison.

I found out after that. It was then that my aide met with the aide of the Duke of Argento to learn that it was Count Ferrarius who sent the intruder. And I believe you will know without needing to say that I was called straight from prison to the Imperial Palace.

...that, that!

Also, I heard from Sir Sion that the Duke of Argento had pointed out Count Ferrarius before mentioning those who bought the medicine. Among the buyers, Count Ferrarius was there.

I've been asked if I don't.

This means that nothing is forced into place.

'Of course, the testimony from the Duke of Argento is a fake lie... .'

did we It was the Argento family.

Me and Serpence don't know anything about it. externally.

Ha, this is true. That's right, all.

What, what?! Sir Stein! What the hell is that!

Even if I hold on to it any longer, there is no meaning

was it sloppy?

Unlike the Count who persisted until the end even if he showed an ugly appearance and tried to get rid of it, Sir Stein was obediently admitting it.

At his words, Count Ferrarius's complexion darkened.

"Don't be too afraid, Count Ferrarius. You have done your part, Sir Falsum . Unlike that crafty traitor, have you not been with me to the end?"

Somehow, I said that I was acknowledging the result. In the end, I think he's going to drag him into Operation Water Ghost, even to Sir Palsum.

all.

S, Sir Stein? Saying that sounds like we worshiped the devil!

And this still negates the result.

The Count jumped out of his seat in bewilderment, and shrugged the shoulders of his aide and demon worshiper, Sir Stein.

"Death is only temporary. When the demons overthrow this continent and the Demon King comes to this land, the Count will offer them as sacrifices and efforts.

You will never turn away from all your wealth. We will have a body again by his power, and we will have eternal life!

"Ah, no I just want to live well now.

The world today is only suffering! After a brief rest, when you wake up, you must be in a real utopia! It cannot but be said to be the grace of the Count who recognized the effort of the Count!

Who said you wanted something like that?! You said you didn't get caught! It was brainwashing or something, they said that it would never be resolved... When the 'day' came...

Even if the country collapses, not only will you survive, but you will also gain more power and wealth than you have now... !

The Count is still lacking in learning, so he must be afraid and bewildered right now. But I understand. He will forgive you too!

No, what is this, I'm scared.

Suddenly mood fanaticism, what is it?

The sight of Sir Stein, who suddenly smiles brightly and makes strange noises, gives me goosebumps.

Reflexively, with both hands, place the upper part of the back of the chair where Serpens is sitting.

He grabbed hold of it, and then stood close behind him.

'It's different from believing in the Tao... .'

If they're scammers, they're really crazy. It looks like the hairs all over her body are crouching.

Then something clicked, and something touched my finger.

It was the back of the head of Serpens.

'boy !,

It's weird.

He changed his posture and pretended to be sitting, his back

It seems that he sat deep in the chair so that his back touched the back of his head.

'Because it's okay, it means to be at peace... .'

Instead of leaning forward as if to get up right away, he leaned backwards.

It just means to watch.

'I had to catch my breath anyway, so let's watch it, right?'
