32 – Confession

Many conditions are needed to persuade people.

If the person you are persuading is completely opposite to you, the conditions become even more difficult.

There is a high probability that listeners will look at the person they are trying to persuade with disdain.

Even if black is called black and white is white, the listener will not hear it with the back of his or her ear.

As a result, those trying to persuade spend most of their mental energy trying to ease the other person’s guard.

You must build a friendly relationship with the person you are persuading, and you should never try to teach, but only say sweet things to the other person, encouraging them to change their opinion.

Moreover, there is no guarantee that there will be good results at the end of the hard work.

however,

The target that Shiron was trying to persuade had already formed a friendly relationship.

Moreover, they were in a position to receive orders and were not human.

‘I’m lucky.’

Siron slowly opened the door and entered. Yuma follows behind him.

Tap-tap-tap-

Everyone’s attention was focused on the appearance of the master who appeared without warning. The chattering atmosphere I felt beyond the door has disappeared. It is natural for the space to be enveloped in silence.

However, just because many people’s attention was focused, Shiron did not become nervous. The theory wasn’t that stupid.

The boy’s expression was relaxed, and his confidence seemed to show with each step he took. Since this was something I had hoped for, I can’t even imagine doing something as cruel as getting out of here.

chin-

Siron stood up on the table in the center of the room. An appropriate place to look down on everyone’s face took the role of a podium.

“You came without fail.”

Siron looked down at them and smiled happily. Except for Yuma, who was standing behind him, all thirty maids were visible at a glance.

“Let me ask you something. “Has anyone heard anything before coming here?”

“… … .”

The maids did not answer Siron’s questions. I just shake my head.

The sight of everyone shaking their heads in unison, as if they were one colony, was so strange that it made one think this place was not real.

‘also…’

Siron slowly touched his lips as if he was contemplating the current situation.

Encia did not say anything as she called the women together.

I couldn’t have told you in advance. They are not smart enough to listen to the orders of a child who will never become anything… Encia must have thought so.

Nevertheless, Encia, who felt most betrayed by Siron, followed orders without much complaint. Shiron smiled bitterly at that fact.

‘Oh, I’m shaking.’

Encia’s actions convinced Siron. The people who use the Dawn Castle are not all human. That fact is engraved in my mind again.

According to the setting, they do not have human hearts. We move by purpose rather than emotion, and judge by reason rather than emotion.

‘I first check what purpose these guys are moving for and whether it is different from what I know.’

Siron made a plan and pondered what childlike behavior was.

“I’m sorry for keeping you going back and forth like yesterday. “I don’t want to bother you either, but I’m a bit impatient.”

The pronunciation was a little muffled, but everything was relaxed inside.

“As everyone knows, it is an obvious fact that I passed the succession ceremony. “I don’t think there’s any idiot who won’t accept that I fell through the ice, but… if you have any complaints, you can tell me right now.”

“… … .”

As expected, despite the luck, no maid raised her hand. If they had any complaints, they would not be gathered here.

“then…”

Siron looked around with a satisfied expression.

From noble mtl dot com

Everyone is focusing their attention on him. The only moving part is the eyelids. It feels like being in a room with beautiful dolls on display.

Siron passed them and turned his head towards Yuma, who was standing behind him.

“Yuma.”

“yes. young master.”

“I heard you told Encia about the power of prophecy. “It’s a bit unfortunate.”

“… … “I apologize.”

The red-haired woman with horns slightly bowed her head and apologized.

But her mouth was smiling. Siron knew very well what made him so happy, so he didn’t bother to point it out.

“I knew her as a woman who didn’t know it was a mistake, but it was quite unexpected. I can’t believe you’re shaking like a cubic crystal. But I didn’t reveal it to outsiders, I only told it to the kids, so I’ll skip it this time.”

“I just want to thank you.”

Shiron dared to speak as if warning Yuma. But there can be no real warning in this. The reason I looked back at her, who had already figured out all the issues, was none other than to gain luck in the power of prophecy.

When I turned my head back, the situation changed.

‘Look at this.’

Their eyes changed. The eyes that had been filled with doubts were shining, and the face was slightly flushed as if excited.

It could be said that the atmosphere was heightened.

“Sup…”

Chiron ran a finger across her lips.

I got caught very well by the rice cakes that were insinuated that I had gained the power of prophecy.

The maids leaned forward as if they wanted to bombard Siron with questions right away, and some even stood up.

however,

‘It’s foolish to quench the thirst of horny guys.’

Siron opened his mouth not at the girls who were anxious to ask a question, but at Encia, who was the only one in the corner who was depressed.

“Encia. Why are you so depressed? “I was so happy earlier.”

“Yeah…”

Encia slowly raised her lowered head. But the lips did not move easily.

This is because Shiron’s actions, which deliberately push the situation to the edge, made him anxious. Encia scolded Siron.

“… … “There’s nothing to worry about.”

Ensia intentionally avoided answering.

However, Shiron did not let her go.

“it’s okay. So… next question.”

Rather, he grinned, as if enjoying her reaction.

“… … “Did I really get caught by you?”

“I’m a bit behind.”

“You’re not going to let go until I answer.”

“of course.”

Siron nodded,

Ansia let out a sigh as if resigned.

“Please speak.”

“You’re a demon, but why do you obey the orders of a kid like me?”

“that…”

Encia closed her eyes tightly. This master wasn’t asking himself a question.

Encia is being asked to speak on behalf of everyone to questions that apply to everyone.

“Because you are Prien.”

“What is Prien? “I don’t think they’ll just follow you because you’re a nobleman.”

“Because it’s my only hope of getting out of here.”

“Not that one. Do you want to keep talking back?”

Siron’s eyebrows furrow. It was because Encia did not give him the answer he wanted.

‘You… know everything.’

Encia felt her heart sink.

As expected, you awakened the power of prophecy. The truth that you should not know until you become the head of the family is about to come out of his mouth. Encia felt her vague guess becoming clearer.

‘As expected, my eyes were not wrong.’

The power of prophecy.

Prien’s matriarch can see the future. In order to kill again the apostles of the demon god who are resurrected even after killing them, you can specify an unknown location in the demon world where they will resurrect.

Encia said with her eyes wide open. The beautiful voice was full of power.

“Because he is the only savior who will kill the hateful demon who betrayed us.”

“good. “I should have told you sooner.”

Chiron gave a satisfied smile as if he had gotten the answer he wanted. And I searched for another suitable maid.

“Ophelia. Why are you serving Prien?”

“It’s like Encia. It is to avenge the demon who deserves to be killed.”

“Then I will do anything for that.”

“of course. young master.”

Ophelia smiled brightly. She also had the same thoughts as Encia.

Siron asked questions one after another.

Aina. Vivian. Sitry. Dorothy. Eliola. flone. Gracia. hamil. Aye…

The twenty-eight demons confessed to Shiron.

They were enshrining Prien in order to take revenge on the Demon God.

“Thank you so much for being honest.”

Poetry collates and confirms information.

They weren’t people.

He is a devil who likes to bet.

It was already bound by some contract or oath.

Now that you know what they want, persuading them is easy.

The reason why they have been chasing after the children for 500 years.

The reason why he took care of Prien without complaint even though he could only go out one day a year in this stuffy castle.

Shiron nodded as if meeting their expectations. Now I can finally say that I will not become a family head.

“Then, wouldn’t it be enough to just kill the demon without me standing at the head of the household?”

The boy

A halo of light was pulled out of thin air.

Siron, who stood in a place where everyone paid attention, drove a wedge between them to prevent them from having different feelings.

——!

The holy sword in Siron’s hand showed off its noble appearance.

His actions literally looked like he had summoned a holy sword out of thin air.

“Matriarch, I wonder if there is any need to do this.”

He acted as if he had been chosen by the Holy Sword, just like Kylie 500 years ago. He spoke confidently as if he were the rightful owner.

“I am a hero.”

Their suspicions became confirmed.

The room is filled with feelings of joy.

Tears well up on my flushed face.

There is nothing funny about a demon praising a warrior.

I decided not to do anything that didn’t suit me anymore, but in less than a day, I did it.

Siron chewed his tongue and suppressed the laughter that threatened to escape.

‘thank god. ‘Because Lucia is not here.’

Still, I was curious about the theory. How will she react when she sees the scene impersonating a warrior?
