Erinia family, Yoohyun didn't seem to remember anything about it. Yoohyun knew what this sensation was. One of the memories that disappeared.
Every time I tried to recall a lost memory, I had to feel this sensation. The frustration of staring at something stagnant just below the surface. It stopped at a close border.
It was definitely annoying, but Yoohyun didn't necessarily show up on his face.
‘Is it really Eris' sister? ‘
Iris, greeted with an airy gesture, slowly raises her head. It was an incredibly similar face to Eris, but unlike Eris' mild eyes, Eris had sharp eyes.
But the atmosphere of the two faces was completely different, even though they were called sisters. If you're an adult, it's on Iris' side. It was Iris who was the beauty with the cold impression. The temperature in the snow is very low.
“My name is Iris Erinia. As a child of the Erinia family, you can simply describe it as sister of Eris. ”
“Eritrean iris · · · ·. That's a good name. My name is Evan. ”
“I know. It's the name I've heard from my sister for the last three weeks. When I said that name every day, I wanted to forget it from the side, but I couldn't forget it. ”
Do you hate me? ’
Iris' attitude was extremely strange. I feel like I'm drawing a line somewhere favorable. It was the atmosphere of observing the opponent from the eyes. Yoohyun put up with it.
Ice-cooled pupils have been looking at Yoohyun since before. Eris could not help but feel anxious.
Ironically, Eris raised his voice.
“Iris! What an attitude! The man in front of me is a silver man! ”
“· · · I know. But, Sister, will you stay still for now? My father cares about this. No matter how much I call you, I hope you'll be quiet now. ”
“That, that, that, that. ”
Iris narrows his eyes and glances at him, and Eris looks back with pity. When I saw it, I knew what it was like to live normally. Are you weak for your sister?
When Eris had no choice but to step back, Eris coughed lightly and said.
“Evan. Who the hell are you? ”
When Iris asks that, a heavy tension hovers around. It's not Yoohyun's. Everyone nearby swallowed the saliva. Lute was laughing at Cook Harbor to see if it was fun.
As crazy as he is, Yoohyun slanders the smiling lute as he watches the fun in this situation. In the first place, Yoohyun was not a man enough to break his face with this.
Yoohyun looks up and laughs as he looks inside the walls of the sinking Iris like the deep sea.
“What do you mean by that? ”
“Literally. I'm asking about who you are. I want you to start at your age and tell me all about where you've been. You really were an unidentified man. It's like it just happened out of nowhere in a maze. “
“It sounds like you did some background research on me. ”
Yoohyun narrowed his eyes. Iris was still a cold face, despite expressing dissatisfaction.
Then, she smiled with fresh, smooth eyes.
“I hope you don't misunderstand too much. We were just investigating to find you. It wasn't to dig up your back from the start. In a way, this was inevitable. ”
“· · · It would be a good thing if it was just that. ”
Only the cool air hovered between Yoohyun and Iris who said so.
Yoohyun can now see why it feels like iris is drawing a line. She felt something while investigating an adventurer named Evan. So I can't help but wonder.
‘I never thought I'd get suspicious like this. ’
It was a completely unexpected scenario for Yoohyun.
Moreover, what are the secret miracles that feel outside the inn?
At least not the adventurers. That's the movement of well-trained assassins.
Seeing you carry something like that, the Erinia family seemed to be more famous than I thought.
It's powerful enough to carry it inside the maze.
Eris continues to speak with a bluish expression in an unusual atmosphere.
“· · · Whatever happened, we don't know anything about you at the moment. However, saving the eldest daughter of the Erinia family is certainly thankful enough to be able to express her words. ”
Suddenly, Iris bends her head again, changing the mood.
And she said as promised somewhere.
“So we don't care what sins you commit within the Demibeast. ”
Yoohyun was relieved to hear that. Is this what she suspected?
At least it was a good thing that I didn't have the idea of being human.
She seemed to misunderstand that no activity came from an adventurer named Evan because she was hiding herself as a sinner. If that's the case, her enemies understand.
It must be more common than ever for a sinner to hide himself in a maze.
“No matter how much you have to change your name and hide your deeds among the Demibeasts, it doesn't change that you are a mercenary to us. Besides, no matter how stupid my sister is, I know how to distinguish bad people. You must not be a bad Demibeast for saving your life a few times."
How was Eris explained in the meantime? Iris showed no more hostility.
But I was just looking at something pitiful.
What else is in that eye? Do you feel sorry for living in a maze?
It doesn't matter what became of it. It's satisfying that you didn't find out you were human.
Yoohyun was relieved.
* * *
Eris couldn't hide his anxiety on the way back. Iris smiles bitterly at her sister as if she were a puppy worried about being abandoned.
“Sister, does Evan care so much? ”
Irris' gentle voice was completely different from what he had shown Evan in the inn. Unlike her cold impressions, her mood has now changed smoothly.
This was Eris' usual attitude towards Eris. As a brother, she always admired Eris. Especially the talent she has is even stronger.
Eris nods with a slightly bloodless face.
Then Iris spoke without erasing his bitter laugh.
"But now we must avoid engaging with the Demibeasts. Especially if you're like a sister. ”
“· · · Why? ”
“You know that. The Demibeasts aren't feeling too good these days. They're trying to fight the Orcs again. And this time, we are secretly seeking an alliance to win. ”
As arrogant as they are, they are hostages, but they seem to know the power of Orcs. After half a year, I was pushed out of my power to end the war, but I can't admit it.
Among the Demibeasts, there were also elves.
Of course, I refused to ask for help.
It's not because the Orcs are scared. Because elves have always remained neutral.
Not as many conflicts have led to war as we have now, but for hundreds of years there have been many conflicts among peoples. Whenever that happened, the Elves always remained neutral and helped each other to reconcile. That hasn't changed yet.
Iriz recalls Evan he saw this time, and Nazic says.
“The Demibeast named Evan is suspicious. However, considering that you defended your sister against Throwing Aaron, it is undeniable that you have made a great deal of money. I think that's appreciated. ”
Throwing Aaron was a famous warrior. The Demibeasts are the only ones who won the war against the Orcs. Besides, he was a master-class warrior. Fighting against such a person is usually not allowed.
“I don't know exactly what's going on with him, but he's not usually there. ”
Beating Aaron was different from simply being good at adventure in the maze.
I literally had to reach the limit in combat capability.
Aaron is a soldier. In other words, he was an extremely specialized warrior in the skill of killing someone, not fighting monsters. But I won by fighting such warriors.
It can't be a simple adventurer. From the beginning, there was a big difference between an adventurer who had developed skills to fight monsters and a warrior who had mastered killing skills to kill someone.
Fighting monsters in the maze may be better for adventurers, but in the Great War, soldiers were forced to be stronger. This is a fundamental difference in technology.
“Having a strong power and hiding your actions as an adventurer has a great chance of committing a great crime within the Demibeast. Besides, is it normal for master-class people to hide? You can't just flirt with the Demibeasts later. If he really committed a serious crime, he'd be tracking it down somehow. ”
At that point, Eris bites her lips, stopping her steps.
“· · · Evan is not like that. There must be a reason. I don't think he did anything bad. You can't be such a good guy. ”
Eris' wall, facing the eyes of Iris, was filled with trust and faith. Iris smiles bitterly at her unbreakable will. I should also say that he is his sister.
“Do you know what a socket is called Erifne? ”
In response to a sudden question, Eris was puzzled but frankly answered.
“· · · Mm-hmm. Well, I don't know. ”
When Eris shakes her head, she smiles as if she were looking at something adorable.
“It means eternal love. “
“· · · Eternal love? “
“Yeah. For the record, it's from an elf named Erifne. Elves don't fall in love very well. Surprisingly, the Elves are a species that is dry from emotion. But once you fall in love, the Elves won't get out easily. That's why Erifne's shotgun is eternal love. ”
Iris understood Eris while speaking. It must be strange not to feel feelings for the man who saved you so many times in such danger. But it is.
"I don't care who you like. But now is not a good time. Otherwise, if things don't work out well with the Demibeasts, it might damage the whole Elf. Especially the more vulnerable a family is to its own guardians, such as our own. ”
What the hell did a master adventurer do if he had to hide and go? It wasn't just the adventurers who infiltrated the maze. Some came into the maze to escape.
Iris was reluctant to involve Eris in such an unidentified existence.
No matter how mercenary he is.
But when Iris saw Eris' eyes, she thought it would be hard.
It was so intense that it was the first love for the woman in the tomb who lived in the family all her life.
