After returning from the church, I lay in bed for the rest of the time and closed my eyes for a while.

However, when he opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar imperial court uniform.

“Fufu, it was finally abandoned. Kael.”

And then, with a familiar voice, I could tell that this place was a dream.

When I turned around at that mocking voice, my eyes met Serin who was laughing at me.

She was wearing a dress that showed off her thighs and chest.

I am aware of this situation now.

It was the day I left after being betrayed by Aurelia 5 years ago.

“It’s like you knew everything.”

The lines of that day naturally came out of my mouth.

Before I left the capital, my colleagues came to me one by one like this.

Ashua, to relieve his guilt,

Gerald laughed at my wretchedness,

Mary wants to feel the euphoria and pleasure from the appearance of me who has fallen into the abyss.

And maybe Serine to completely take her away from me.

“As I said before, Aurelia brought it up first. So why don’t you look at me like that?”

“It seems like you are looking forward to the party quite a bit.”

As I glanced through the dress, she grinned.

Then he glanced at Rowe behind him.

“Yeah, it was necessary.”

“Kuk. Yes, it’s superficial, it’s nice to see. It goes very well with your dirty inside.”

“What?”

Serin’s eyes trembled at my words.

She took a few steps closer and spoke in a muffled voice.

“In the past, the subject made my face blush just by making eye contact with me.”

Well, there must have been such a dark history.

It was only then that I was possessed, and Serin was one of the heroines of this world.

“But right now, looking at your filthy flesh doesn’t give me any inspiration.”

“ね. Why don’t you put aside that cheeky attitude on the subject Aurelia abandoned?”

“You’re the one who licks Aurelia’s buttocks, don’t you close your mouth a bit?”

As I said that with a cold gaze, Serin bit her lip.

Then he put his hand on the scabbard to see if he could bear it any longer.

“Cael. It looks like you’re misunderstanding something, but you’re not the only one who sealed the Demon King.”

“okay? Then where are you going?”

I looked at the sword she was holding and answered leisurely.

I had neither a weapon nor a shield in my hand, but I didn’t feel like I was going to lose.

As long as they have been together, they know the skills of their colleagues well.

Even if they attack all at once, that sword will never reach me.

“······ha. done.”

Serin sighed and lifted her hand from the sword.

“Because this is not the time with you. The party will start soon.”

Then she showed off her dress and smiled mischievously.

Now, are you going to wear that and hit Lowe like the original?

I shook my head as I watched Law enter the party.

Poor guy.

“okay. do it your way Anyway, don’t come to me again. Serene.”

If we fight now, innocent people can get involved.

And as a colleague, I still have a little bit of affection, so I’m leaving as it is.

I don’t know what I’ll do next time we meet, so these words were sincere.

“Heh, that’s what I’m talking about, Cael. Why am I going to find you? I have no feelings for you anymore.”

Serin spoke so softly and turned her back on me.

I, too, hastened the way I was going without seeing any more.

And sooner or later, instead of the royal gown, the familiar ceiling of the inn room appeared.

“······ah.”

Realizing that I had returned to reality soon, I let out a sigh.

Ha, it’s been a while since I returned to the capital.

Now I come to think of all the nonsensical things.

“By the way, there were times when he was like that.”

Rubbing my half-closed eyes, I got up and turned my head.

But in the bed next to me, Serin, the protagonist of my dream, was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, there was only the pajamas she had left behind.

“Did you go out first?”

That nocturnal hikikomori wakes up before me. It’s a sight you’ll never see when you’re in town.

I too got out of bed and finished getting ready to go to the party, and it was time for the intense sunlight to come in through the cracks in the window.

Even with the windows closed, the sound of children running around could be heard.

Today was the same day as any other day, but I didn’t feel like it.

Even so, 5 years will be the starting point to pay off that long time.

I changed into a suit and left the room, surrendering myself to an unknown sense of elevation.

“Are you awake?”

When we got down to the pub on the first floor, Sizu and other knights were waiting for us.

They were wearing casual clothes, not armor.

Because it was only me and Serin at the party, so it wasn’t their turn to go out yet.

But they wore swords around their waists, and their faces were covered with tension.

Thanks to this, the atmosphere of the inn had subsided a bit.

“Hey, relax. Serin and I are going, but why are you like that?”

“Oh, I’m sorry. Whoa…”

Shizu exhaled and relaxed her body.

I tapped her on the shoulder a few times.

“Then I will go. I’ll take care of you later, Lucia.”

“yes. Leave it to us.”

“Ah, and I’m going to warn you to be old-fashioned, so even if you run into Aurelia and the others, never fight or argue. Especially Mary never.”

Of course, that wouldn’t be the case, but the grudges of the knights directly under the imperial family were deeper than expected.

Well, I understand how you feel as you must have watched Aurelia for five years, who overcame her direct successor, Dimitri, and reigned like a tyrant.

But the plan I’ve prepared at the most can’t go to waste because of that.

“Yeah, I know.”

She nodded as if she understood, but the real reason I was doing this was different.

The first day I came to the capital, I ran into Mary and just let it go, it wasn’t just my plans for the future.

Mary feels no pain.

No, to be precise, she was using the nociceptive magic that she developed, 24 hours a day, on herself.

So no matter how much you beat her, you won’t feel any pain until you die.

And that was something that should never happen in my revenge.

“Then see you later.”

“yes. Then, please be careful.”

At my words, Shizu and the knights saluted and cleared the road on either side.

In the meantime, I could also see Nike half giving up, but I don’t have to worry about it now.

“Oh, come to think of it, haven’t you seen Serin?”

Before pulling the doorknob, I asked Shizu next to me just in case.

“ah.”

I saw her making a face that she remembered it belatedly. I guess it was probably correct.

*

“Obviously Shizu told me to come here.”

I fixed an unfamiliar tie and went out to the back of the inn.

She had clearly said that Serin was waiting here.

I heard that Serin, who got up before me, asked Shizu to deliver it later.

“Why did you tell me to come here?”

Besides, you have to call me in such a troublesome way.

I questioned and looked around.

But no matter how much I looked at her, I couldn’t find her figure anywhere, let alone pretending to be popular.

“Umm…”

Anxiety passes by with a low moan.

Is it because I had a dream like that before?

When I couldn’t see Serin, I only had bad thoughts.

Well, there’s no way I’m going to betray you now, and even if I did, it wouldn’t have much of an impact.

“After all, it hurts a little to be betrayed twice.”

I said that and smiled bitterly.

I don’t really want to see an ending where all my colleagues I’ve been with have to die.

So I waited for a while, believing that she would come soon.

“By the way, it’s awkward since I’ve been wearing it for a long time.”

Since I left the capital, I have never worn a suit, so it was very uncomfortable.

I was thinking of just dressing up casually, but anyway, since it’s a banquet held at the Imperial Palace, it must be at least formal.

Of course, the problem is that the organizer is that year.

“Uhhh!”

At that moment, I heard a coughing sound from behind.

I was relieved at the sound of that familiar girl’s voice.

Serin approaching from behind didn’t feel alive or hostile.

With the gentle sound of footsteps, a careful hand grabbed my collar.

“···········?”

But her actions stopped there.

He didn’t say anything, let alone what he had called out, just a small trembling from the collar she was holding.

Why are you doing this all of a sudden? It’s time to go slowly though.

“Come on, let’s go quickly.”

“Oh, come on, hold on a second!”

As I turned around, I heard Serin’s urgent scream.

But it was already after I turned around and faced her, and I was at a loss for words for a moment at her unusual appearance.

There stood Serin, the heroine of the original, neither a hikikomori nor a traitor.

“Wow, wouldn’t it be strange too?”

She couldn’t make eye contact with me and asked, looking anxious.

Her trembling voice was wet with water, and her lost hands were fidgeting.

It was the exact opposite of her in the past, who had her breasts pressed tight or her bare skin partially exposed.

“If the owner doesn’t want to see you… I’ll change my clothes and come back.”

When I said nothing, she said so and forced a smile.

However, he could not hide the tears and self-helpful smiles that seemed to flow at any moment.

If it had been me five years ago, I would not have believed her now.

She was always confident and arrogant.

Even in the original work, even after being possessed, I had never seen Serin like this.

So, instead of being mean as usual, I gave my honest impressions.

“Nope. It’s beautiful.”

“I, really?”

Serin raised her head cautiously at those words.

They barely made eye contact with me, and only then showed a shy smile.

“Hehehe, I’m glad…”

She muttered a little and wiped her eyes.

It was the complete opposite of what I had seen in my dreams during the day.

Looking at her like that, I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Now that I don’t see her rationally, it was a positive change anyway.

Serin in the original, no, she looked much better than that.

“Then let’s go soon.”

“Yes, let’s go together. Master!”

Serin the traitor was no longer there.

*

Darkness fell on the sky outside the window, and the street lights began to go out one by one.

Admiring the dimming light, Lucia was sitting on the railing of the window and playing with her feet.

“Heh, heh heh. Uh huh.”

Lucia sings a hum along to her feet as if having fun.

After that, Aerith was tidying her hair.

“When are you going? Are you ready now?”

Lucia could not hide her excitement and raised her voice.

Her eyes were already fixed on the imperial palace, where the party was in full swing.

Aerith looked at her like that and smiled.

smart-

“come!”

And finally the long-awaited knock is heard,

When the door opened and Shizu came in, she jumped down from the railing.

“Are you ready?”

When Shizu asked, Lucia strode towards her with a hoof sound.

f*ck.

And instead of answering, he headed to the Imperial Palace with a smile on his lips.
