52. The Duke’s Interrogation (9)
Looking at Edna’s Horndley’s eyes, I wanted to miss it belatedly.
So I decided to give the excuses that Serpens had to make.
“Serpens is so soft-minded that it must have been very difficult for someone to suffer.
Is that right?”
“That…”
“It was necessary, so I ate hard and started, but when I heard screams, I was hesitant.”
I said, remembering Serpens crying. There was bitterness and regret in his voice.
Edna’s expression darkened.
I felt like I was deceiving her, and my heart was clenched, but it was the clear truth that Serpens had a hard time. It’s never a lie.
My conscience is open today.
“Moreover, a loved one has been seriously injured, so it’s disturbing in many ways.”
“Oh, that’s right. For some reason, yesterday’s expression was jovial…” o •
“It was cheap? I’ve never seen him so angry.”
“It seems that it was so important.”
“Yes. It’s a very, very close relationship with a strong belief.”
“Ah, ah-! That’s right. I understand. That’s why… it’s so hard…
You must have.”
I guess my excuses worked.
Edna nodded her head as if she had attained enlightenment.
But not all problems are solved. Anxiety still remains.
‘I told Edna that Serpens was crying… !’
The baby fence filter, which caught my eye, had no choice but to be peeled off.
He didn’t say that he shed tears while setting the mood, but rather that he fell asleep crying. this is the only excuse
There is no room.
If Edna makes a tee, Serpens may be embarrassed and look for a mouse hole.
“Ah, yes, but it’s an absolute secret that I said this.”
“You don’t know. I mean… you mean secret love? I’m never going to tell anyone.”
“Yes? Secret love? Who is with whom?”
“Wylydia-nim and Mr. Prasidus.”
It’s a golden door. Serpence’s love story that I don’t even know.
Did Eugene secretly spread rumors?
“Mr. Prasidus, who kept talking here, will wake you up. We’re going to eat. The children are already waiting in the dining room. Lord Redford…”
“I must protect this place.”
“If that’s the case, I’ll bring you some food.”
“I’d appreciate it if you could do that.”
While I was messing around, Edna, who had spoken with Winston, dragged me to the dining room.
* * *
It was almost lunchtime when Eugenes woke up.
I woke up Serpens as promised. As soon as he got up, he calmed his swollen eyes with divine power, and after changing into clean clothes, he left the room.
Although his expression looked gloomy, he did not appear to be a sleepy person.
that he cried like a child
It’s probably something you don’t want to see.
‘…You did a good job telling Edna to keep it a secret.’
Winston doesn’t care.
In order to tell the story, you must speak to Serpens’ face and say, ‘I heard that you fell asleep crying.’
There’s no way Winston would do something like that.
“Are you all right?”
“Yes, thanks.”
“Your complexion still looks very bad…”
Serpence trembled and grabbed Eugene’s wrist, pushing the divine power again.
I know it’s not a physical problem, but I’m willing to do anything with my feet.
As he said, Eugene’s complexion was not very good, but Serpens’s complexion was too pale. Anyone who doesn’t know will know that there are two patients.
“It’s really okay. It seems like you won’t be able to summon the spirits for a while, but there’s nothing wrong with the body itself.”
“…Really?”
“It’s not true. It’s just that I was reverse summoned because I was overworked and pulled out my strength, so if you eat well and rest well, you’ll be fine.”
Eugene took Serpence’s hand and pulled it off his wrist, smiling softly as if to be relieved.
Edna looked at him with a warm expression.
It seems like you’ve really misunderstood.
‘What should I do before I get into Serpence’s ears… .’
Even if I said it was a misunderstanding right now, I don’t think even a seed would work.
My guess was, ‘Okay, okay. Wouldn’t it be secrecy!’ and frowned?
For now, I can only hope that time will solve it
“I’m sorry, if I heard the information from the Demon Worship earlier…”
In the morning, I was so distracted that I couldn’t ask anything. Seeing him say something like that, I must have heard something while interrogating him.
It was already happening, so the devil said he was willing to give it to him without hesitation, or was it the result of torture?
Which one seems to be different depending on what the guy heard and to what extent.
“It must have been a two-way operation anyway. It happened not long after the last reply from Serpence…”
Anyone who hears it would think it was Serpence who sent Jeon Seo-gu. It’s not important, so let’s move on.
‘More than that, Operation Yangdong… .’
Before kidnapping me, it must have been a ruse to grab Serpence’s attention.
That’s where Euges got caught.
Serpens had an orphanage attached to it, but the demons didn’t notice it.
Serpense must have come to the same conclusion as me. The boy’s expression became very depressed.
“Why don’t you eat something first? I haven’t eaten anything since lunch yesterday, so I’m very hungry.”
Eugene said as if to appease Serpence.
Ask me what happened right now
I wanted to go to bed, but I can’t starve the patient.
Reluctantly, we agreed to what Euges said.
While the meal was in progress, Serpens checked Eugene’s condition, and Euges emptied the entire bowl as if reassuring him.
All the children were entrusted to the former director, and we gathered in the director’s office and sat down.
“Now tell me.”
As Edna’s soundproofing magic unfolded, Serpens hardened her face.
I opened my mouth.
Normally, I would have said it was good for Serpence’s weighty appearance. For some reason, the progenitor of the ‘new Eugenes faction’ avoided his gaze.
It was very suspicious to the extent that the words of having dinner first felt like a waste of time.
“••• There was an explosion at the main altar at the top of Rossio.”
Eugenes carefully opened his mouth.
As if to continue explaining, Serpens nodded slightly without interrupting her words.
nodded.
“I know the Rossio Sangha has ties to demon cults, but the staff there are ordinary people.”
“You mean you got hurt while saving those people?”
“That’s it.”
“Ummm… I don’t think you could have been hurt this much, Eugenes, just with that alone.”
Saying that, Serpens looked intently at Eugenes’s expression with his analysing eyes.
Even in the eyes of him, Eugene’s behavior was
seems to have won
no matter how it is Interrogating a patient against each other seems like an overkill.
“I was showing up and evacuating people, and then demon worshipers showed up and attacked me.”
“Couldn’t you have noticed sooner?”
“The explosion is due to black magic, and black magic is scattered around…”
“You would have tried to save people even in such a situation.”
“•••Yes.”
“and?”
If Serpense’s words seem to be getting shorter and shorter, is it just my imagination?
Edna was there too. That’s why I wouldn’t blame Euges for saving people.
However, the act of caring for and worrying about one’s own people is within the right to set the external fence.
He didn’t hide his anger.
“I rescued and carried a person whose leg was crushed by rubble…”
“Were you a demon worshiper?”
“Yeah, yes, but…”
“I won’t listen to excuses that I was ambushed from behind while I was concentrating on the attack of the demon worshiper in front of me. The same goes for excuses that I was careless because I was an ordinary person with no skills.”
Before Euges could make excuses that pretended to explain the circumstances, Serpens quickly poured out his words.
Eugez, who was suddenly deprived of everything he had to say, kept his mouth shut. Serpens looking at her like that
The eyes are not serious.
If Eugenes had not been a patient, he would have been sentenced to death by kneeling and raising his hand.
“Please don’t say that your condition has gotten worse while trying to save people with your wounds.”
“Did you really do that?”
“But how can you turn away from people who are injured in front of you? They would have lost their lives if they had left it alone.”
“Eugeus was also injured.
I was writing… . Eventually… .”
Serpens relaxed his stiff facial muscles and sighed with a lonely expression. That look was very ugly.
If he suddenly changed his expression, be careful.
It is not a proof of forgiveness, but a carrot for a whip, to release them by squeezing them out.
“Rescuing others in crisis… Yes, that’s fine. Who’s to blame for that?”
“Then do you understand?”
“One of the things I don’t know is
More than an injury, mine. It hurts my heart to see Eugenes get hurt. This is me… , is that bad?”
Serpense’s beautiful arm frowned and drew an eight. The green eyes below them wobbled sadly.
If someone else makes a face like this, you should be comforted right away, but if it’s a serpent, it’s a different story.
This is a beautiful trap. If you get stuck here, it’s over.
“Oh no! Everyone does.”
“Everyone is like Ramen, isn’t Eugene too?”
“of course!”
“But why?”
“Ah….”
Eugenes was completely speechless.
Looking at her like that, Serpens hardened her expression again.
“Someone who knew so well asked why.”
“Sin, I’m sorry.”
“What do you mean?”
“Because I don’t take care of myself and put others first…?”
“Are you aware that it is wrong?”
“Be and not!”
“But why?”
Conversation is at the beginning again.
Eugenes repeatedly said sorry with an expression of embarrassment and not knowing what to do, and Serpens repeatedly asked the question, ‘Why, like a six-year-old with a disease?
The conversation between the two continues
He filmed it, and every time that happened, Eugene’s mind was blown away.
‘When and where did I learn something like that… , Ah… .’
Come to think of it, I remember mentioning this kind of conversation to Serpence as if passing by.
I said it as a joke, but he remembered it, applied it and used it.
‘Euges, I’m sorry… .’
Eugenes glanced at me and sent me a glance asking for help, but I tried to turn my back.
Her courage and good heart to save others should not be condemned.
However, everyone has the same desire not to lose a loved one.
I would have done it if Serpens hadn’t said a word to her.
‘Euges is so kind and has no boundaries.’
After being hurt once, I felt wary of unfamiliar kindness, but I still refused to be with the weak.
She has lived among the good elves for hundreds of years. so stay
It’s just hard to be suspicious.
People want to help people. The reality that I have to tell you not to do that is sad.
I trembled at the evil people who abused their good heart who could not turn away from people in danger.
In the end, Serpence had to get a promise from Eugenes that he would never do it again.
I firmly nailed the fact that the first and second are for my own safety, and taking care of others is something I do only when I can afford it.
These are the words of Serpens, who was forced to sacrifice for the sake of the continent. Eugenes accepted it without hesitation.
“And Sir Winston.,,
“Yes! Knight, Lord Winston Redford is calling!”
Is it because he saw Eugenes being robbed right in front of his eyes?
Winston raised his standards. I almost would have mistaken him for a private soldier.
“Isn’t it the day before yesterday, not the day before yesterday, that the Lord was out of Perol?”
“Yes, it is!”
To Serpence’s question, Winston straightened his back and answered. The voice is hoarse, and the angle is alive in the sitting posture.
“Keep your voice down and explain in detail.”
“I came back because I was afraid there might be a lurk in the alley from Perol to Algor. But I was eventually caught and delayed. Sorry.”
“No. It was a wise decision. Also, thanks to that, Eugene was able to get here safely, didn’t you?
Thank you very much.”
Winston’s eyes widened at Serpence’s sincere thanks.
He couldn’t help but keep his mouth shut in front of Eugene’s who had been slapped before.
‘How thirsty for the master’s approval? .’
Eugese looked at Winston with envy with a gloomy expression.
