Duke, Please Repent! chapter 165

34. While the Duke was away

(4)

Eugenes smiled warmly and looked at Zeon with friendly eyes.

"I think your brother is very cute."

That's right.

It's true that Bibi is cute, but Jeon couldn't just love him.

Nevertheless, Xeon was unable to make an excuse and had to admit it.

all. His face flushed red with embarrassment.

I'm going to talk about family affairs, so I'd appreciate it if you would leave the room.

Okay. I understand.

I must have not understood anything.

In her head, Zeon said, 'I will be reborn as the best eight-year-old who came to my room secretly because I wanted to discuss how cute my brother is.

Eugene's lips are soft again

He drew an arc, and Zeon struggled to raise the corners of his trembling lips.

I'll just leave. Have a comfortable conversation with your family.

As she left the room, Xeon covered her face with both hands and took time to calm herself.

"Uh, um I didn't mean to do that on purpose, but that's "

"Do you have any leftover stock of the soundproofing magic scroll you used last time?"

Whether or not he was conscious of the elf's sensitive hearing, Zeon asked half-talkingly.

'Have you finally made up your mind?

After learning that Vivi was Zion, Zeon seemed to keep thinking about something.

Therefore, it was not difficult to predict that a day like today would come.

Once he ripped the scroll to his liking.

Since you just introduced me as your little brother, Yulydia-sama doesn't seem to know that you are from another world, right?

"Yes? Yes, it is, but I am just pretending to be receiving a revelation from God. Ah! Really real-time communication

I'm not becoming a god, I'm just unraveling the future little by little based on the future I knew before coming over, but the reason I didn't tell her the truth is... .

It must be because you have an idea. There is no need to explain it.

Feeling that the words were going to be long, Xeon cut my words relentlessly.

"The person who knows the details is Ser, no, Duke . For convenience, I will refer to it as Serpens from now on."

Xeon made an absurd expression on his face.

but so what

Anyway, it's a name I've already called out in front of Vivi. There's no reason I can't sing in front of Xeon, who knows I'm from another world.

Anyway, it's only Serpens. Oh! There are three including my Bibi and the deputy butler.

[Master of the Holy Sword] Uh] I didn't talk about it, but that's tmi, so to speak.

For them, this world is real, and it was the same for me now.

Moreover, the time when Shion died was the beginning of [Master of the Holy Sword], 'before the day of choice, but it was a corner of history contained in it.

Considering that Vivi remembers her time as 'the duke's assistant', the history that flowed in [Master of the Holy Sword] could not be called fiction.

'There's no need to confuse you by bringing up a story about old novels.'

I can assure you, the only person who can accept such a thing casually is Serpens.

"And there will be more to come.

There won't be.

The same goes for Eugenes.

Even if the day comes when I tell her more, it will be just that I am from another world.

Unlike Zeon and Zion, she was the main axis in the history of [Master of the Holy Sword].

Receiving the events that will happen in the future as a revelation is different from the fact that there was history connected with a single flow.

How much less is the end of the marriage with Huma-Nunsae.

'Our Euges is not worth it, cancer!'

It was a secret that had to be taken to the grave.

"Does anyone else know about it?"

Not at all. Do you mean you only know three?

I thought I was going to get to the point quickly because they even cut my horse's waist, but somehow Zeon bit the wrong thing and drooped.

He even sent a glance that he might have been suspicious because he secretly leaked suspiciousness.

"Didn't you say we were talking about Vivi earlier?"

In the end, impatient, I brought up the original topic first.

I'm not here because of Vivi, but because of my younger brother.

"Are those two different?"

Isn't that what it is? It sounds like the same thing?

It doesn't mean that Bibi has already admitted that she is Zion, and now she's going to deny it... .

The reason for separating the two is different

is there

Would it be said that I met a suspicious person while out for work during the day or that I was taken away...

"Yes? What else do you mean?"

Literally.

It took me a while to understand what he was saying.

Literally, that's why I didn't understand it any more.

Without realizing it, I was like, 'Uh... ?' came a stupid sound, and the head automatically tilted to the side.

"If you say that, it sounds like you were kidnapped on the street by someone you didn't know and then returned. Did I misunderstand you?"

You understand correctly.

Earlier, I completely cancel the statement that I expected a day like today to come.

I didn't expect this?!'

If anyone expected it, even a one-time serpence voucher (券) would be tempting to give as a gift.

Serpens would reject it, but this is a situation that even the most imaginative Yujis could not foresee.

no problem.

How did you get here , ah! I'm really glad you escaped safely. It's not that it's wrong...!''

Okay. That's not what's important.

If you just want to say something from a while ago, you cleanly pass it on with an attitude that it doesn't matter.

'What is the most important thing to him? Are you family? Is it possible that he doesn't care about anything other than his family?'

Eugene was not wrong.

However, it wasn't just for his younger brother, but for the entire family.

The current aide is not my real older brother, so he sent me back to go back and try it myself.

When I asked how the fragile Xeon got out, it wasn't that he escaped on his own... .

What?!

I was so surprised that I even twisted my tongue.

Seeing me idling, Xeon asked if I would say it again, and I declined the offer.

"What happened?"

"How do I know what you don't know?"

"Yeah, right."

Well, it makes me speechless to be human.

I kept my mouth shut and listened to him.

Anyway, he said, now the younger brother's body is inhabited by two souls.

" You only have one?"

I called to myself, looked in the mirror, and tried everything.

I did my best, but other spirits

I have never felt the existence of a soul.

Moreover, what did I say to Serpens, who gave the name 'Zion' as a pseudonym when I first went down to the Prasidus Territory?

If there was a soul of Zion in my body, it should have popped out when I spit out a word that said that Zion was so absurd.

While feeling the shrinkage of space and time and trembling with shame, even screaming, "Aww!"

Two souls fight each other, spit

It is said that the spirit of the particle has triumphed and is oppressing and weighing down the soul of its master.

I've never done anything like a battle of souls, and I don't even want to do it. If I had done that, I'd have noticed!

It is said that the soul of the owner of the body will be eaten soon if it continues like this...

"You don't believe that, do you?"

"If that was the case, would you have brought it up like this?"

It seems that the only thing that had a thin sphere 1 was Zion.

You've been chewing my words strangely ever since

When I stabbed with anxiety, Jeon clicked his tongue with a rather pathetic expression.

Even after confirming that Bibi is the younger brother, even if it's not, no one will listen to what such a suspicious person is saying.

no. exist. also very close to him

I swallowed the word that he was your little brother.

If that were the case, wouldn't that raise some suspicions? I may have cheated.

are you?

" Aide, is it even a hobby to buy and be suspicious?"

No, absolutely not!

He denied it right away, but Zeon's questioning eyes were still there.

I remember one day that Serpens misunderstood me for 'a taste for being bullied.

If you add the two, would you become 'a person who deliberately buys suspicious behavior because he wants to be harassed'?

very dangerous person

Do your hobbies in moderation.

Because it's not!

Anyway. For that reason, they told me that we must drive the intruder's soul out of the little brother's body quickly, and they told us to lure the aide to their place this weekend. Of course, without an escort.

this is it

I was escorted by Eugenes, and I didn't even step out of the mansion, so I resorted to Zeon to kidnap me.

And introducing themselves as the 'Prophet of Tenebrio'...

"Te, what?!"

The prophecy of Tenebrio...

Crazy? Why is that name here? And what else is the Prophet?!

Yes?

At the sudden harsh words, Zeon was startled and looked at me with his eyes wide open.

A name that has yet to be mentioned suddenly popped up, and I seem to have gotten excited without knowing it.

But it's inevitable... .

"Tenebrio. That's right, the Demon King himself.

It's your own divine name.

The Demon King's new name...?

The Demon King is not a god.

It was not enough to say that he was a god, but he had reached the level of a demigod.

He wanted to be perfect and at the same time to be unique.

Its name was first known when demon worshipers gathered to form a denomination.

The beings of the continent simply called it the 'Devil Church, but they called it the 'Tenebrio Church'.

Maybe it's because it's a freshly made warm name, or because it's a name that's been hidden like a honey jar.

I don't know that far, but anyway, there was an explanation in the work that this was the first time the name was known to the world.

Anyway, it is not a name that will come out now.

"Let's keep talking for now. What about introducing yourself?"

Ah, yes...

Zeon, who had calmed down for a moment, shook his head to shake off his thoughts. And brushing away my messy hair

got it back

It is said that the Holy Sword was directed at the wrong person, not its original owner, because of the devil's minion... now wearing the body of the younger brother.

Oh my, the devil's minions are theirs! Serpens didn't get the Holy Sword because of me, so even if you make up your own words, you're oily! The Prophet tells you not to talk dog-grazing? No. What do you say? Tell me? It's best not to get involved with those guys!

Even if I did not come, the owner of the Holy Sword was not Serpens.

It's the first time in my life that I've ever felt so miserable.

And what kind of power do I have to intervene in the will of God who chooses the master of the holy sword?

'Or what, did I even corrupt the Serpens?'

When I cried hard for repentance, I cried out, but I never once encouraged corruption.

When I picked up a kitten the size of a palm that had been left alone on the street and touched it, it felt like rumors had spread that it was misunderstood and abused for some reason.

heard this

In a nutshell, it's sad and embarrassing.
