Master’s Smile

Lesson 367: The Last Conversation

"Laradi."

"Hey, what is it?

When I speak up, I just pop by.

Speaking of which, it seems less difficult to walk than it used to be.

Laradi was not good at walking because of a species called Arlaune.

Still, it was so adorable to follow you around a little bit.

"Laradi is a small body, she's fine, isn't she? Alongside Van Peel, he brightened his guild."

"And I can illuminate it.... I'd hate to be treated in the same line as Van Peel."

"You're just being a little too candid. That honesty is your virtue, but that brings extra trouble. I want you to try to keep it in your heart."

"... to do good."

Say the good and the bad things about Laradi.

"... do you really disappear from before Lara?

I can turn my moist eyes like a puppy to be thrown away.

Ugh, but there's nothing I can do about all this.

"Also, because I'll be back soon. Until then, you'll do your best, won't you?

"... I don't like it, but can I be a lot sweeter when I get back?

"Of course. At that time, I think I'll get Laradi's elixir. It's delicious."

With that said, Laradi grinned thinly and approached me, so I slowly hugged her.

The feeling of a small body and fluffy hair will not be forgotten for a while.

Although it is very painful that tears are falling, I turn to them next.

The next thing I looked at was the solgloss covering it with cloth other than the eye area.

"You're always calm. That was very helpful to me."

"Stalkers shouldn't be ridiculous."

You had a sense of stalking, good.

"... but sad is true. If the awkward hadn't slimmed, there would have been zero bumps and tears in his eyes."

Slime is a demon clan made up of liquids.

Solgloss, which can also manipulate venom freely, would be easy, for example, to control tears.

"... I wonder if Solgros would like you to support his guild in terms of information. Information is very important. Especially since we will be Dark Alliance certified and have many enemies, your mobility and information network will become very important. I want you to work hard."

"Do good."

Sorgross snorted and soaked up.

And when you shift the cloth on your mouth, pull your lips against my face...

"Awkward, I've learned to do in-room surgery lately. We want you to try it when the master returns."

"No, sir."

Sorgross laughs and squeals about the outrageous.

You know the kindness I have for you?

The next thing I saw was a knightly litter.

It's usually faceless, but I know there are proper emotions in it.

Although it is rare that you are sadly distorting your eyebrows, as you are now.

"Litter"

"Oh, no."

I don't even have any smudges. It gets truncated with bassari.

Because of Ritter's usual personality, he refuses without having to listen to me.

"Litter"

"Shit. The master's going somewhere."

A litter that comes squeezing my hand tightly.

... This child may be the most childish.

Hmmm...... trouble. How can I convince you?

Only this time, because of my power, I can't do this myself.

"Because I'll be back soon. Just for a little while, will you be patient?

"... no"

Oh, tears are going to spill out of Litter's eyes......

"Right...... when you come back, let's hear everything you have to say. So I just want you to work a little harder"

"... anything?

"Yeah."

Well, Ritter wouldn't say the impossible.

... If you want me to eat some handicrafts, I might need to prepare an elixir.

I'm sure Ritter knows it's a certainty that I'll disappear.

She nodded small at me, although I wouldn't show how convinced I was at all.

"Speaking of which, you seem to have unleashed Satan's power. You've grown well, even though there will be old trauma and all. Good luck."

"... yeah. I want you to praise me again when I get back."

When I say it as I stroke my dark hair, Ritter nods as I look comfortable.

It is wonderful to have been able to put out all, albeit briefly, the power of Satan, the mighty devil.

With this kid, the Alliance will be fine in a warrior sense.

I thought so, and the next thing I looked at was Van Peel.

"Van - -"

"I don't like it!!

... my voice has been cancelled.

I'm glad Ritter refused before he heard me, but he still quietly denies it. [M]

That said, I can only laugh bitterly at being so energetically denied.

"I don't like it, I don't like it! How come the master has to disappear from before me!?

"Because I used too much force. And I got a lot of damage."

"Mm!!

This kid didn't listen to me much. [M]

"If you look closely, you're a master worn out. Are you okay, sir?... Looks a little bloody delicious."

Van Peel is saying...... I guess the wound slashed by Bojena.

As she sips through this period, she is relieved as usual.

... Right, it's the last one.

"Do you want to take the last breath of blood?

"I'll have it!!

When I suggested it, Van Peel immediately embraced me.

And I started licking the pepper and blood out of my wound.

Oh, don't you suck blood?

Seeing this sight, the murderous' Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla) 'members. but be patient.

"Phew, the boulder is the master's blood, isn't it? Delicious!

"Yes, good"

Hmmm...... kind of incomplete burning.

No, I've never thought I'd want to be sucked, but I don't know...

Always, it feels a little strange because they seek blood sucking with ghouls.

"Hey, Master"

With that in mind, Van Peel talked to me.

The face was a slightly colorful look that you wouldn't normally see playing dumb.

"I'll be waiting for you till you get back. I'm a vampire of my true ancestors. About a hundred years from now....... but please come back as soon as possible. Until then, I'll take care of the blood."

That's what Van Peel said and kissed my cheek and walked away.

... Yeah, is that Van Peel? Isn't that fake?

No, it's like the side of the original vampire we met back in the day...

"Ugh!! What are you doing?

"It's Uuuuuu!!

Looking at her blubberly, Van Peel had been eaten by Laradi's plants.

Good, as usual.

Next time, you look kind of fucked up, Chevalt.

"Master, I offer you"

Chevalt has smiled thinly and said something amazing.

It is a declaration of suicide after a smile. Stop it.

"Oh, no..."

"Slaves and maids are what follow behind the Lord everywhere. Master, where there is, there is me."

Apparently, Chevalt thinks I'm going to die, but technically, that's different.

Just because I can't exist in this world, I don't experience death in general.

"No, no... I'm going back to a place where only the Apostle can get in..."

"............... can I be an apostle if I die?

"Stop because you can't be"

That's it, Chevalt finally understood.

With that said, it's probably been a while since I've seen this kid cry.

I say what to tell her as I wipe her cheeky tears with my hands.

"Right...... Chevalt was so happy because he was so dedicated to me"

"And I did what I deserved."

Chevalt slips his cheeks over with joy.

Since I've been a slave...... no, it's so fresh because I rarely get sweet like this anymore after wearing made-up clothes.

When I come back, I want you to be sweeter.

"But I think you're a little too dependent on me. So this time I want you to be a little self-reliant because you're only going away for a little while"

However, I also find it a little dangerous for Schwart.

Maybe some enemies will show up to poke at you there.

At that time, I want to have a solid and healthy relationship that doesn't panic unnecessarily.

"... ok. As a slave, I will always wait!

Schwart nodded with a hardened face of determination.

Nice face. But I don't want slaves to emphasize that much.

Instead, how about we take this opportunity to lift the slavery?

"Ah, slaves are nothing more..."

"As a slave!!

"Oh, yeah."

Sounds like you can't.

The next thing I saw was Reese.

I'm not so worried about her. [M]

Alongside Anato, it's an ancient ginseng that brings together the Army of Salvation (Yerkthilla).

"I can't. Ahhh! I can't leave with my master. Ah!

"Huh!?

Reese has stuck around crying so hard to break such an idea.

Oh, this is Reese?

What the hell was she like when she was usually crisp...?

"Ri, Reese?

"Why aren't you near me? Ooh!! I'll do everything I can, too. No, no!

Not at all responsive to my call either. [M]

It's just like Litter!

But I get a splendid corner hit and it hurts because I scrub my head around.

"Look, Reese. I'll be right back, so in the meantime, I'm talking about the Alliance..."

"I wish you had a master! How could you disappear!!

"doesn't make sense..."

In the first place, you don't even seem to understand why I have to disappear.

You weren't listening to me.

Nevertheless, how does it disappear?

If I can be selfish, I don't want to disappear. Everyone's worried. In many ways.

However, I think this should be a good opportunity.

Well, the reason I have to disappear...

"I guess it's because Lardo's remnants were surprisingly strong"

Although I used my powers to untie the restraints imposed by Maria's powers, and I have been tired from fighting Aria, Hilde's out-of-the-box strength would be one of the factors.

That's what I think and squeal...

"Right... I knew I was weak."

There was a leash that depressed me with a serious look.

No, I don't think it's anything weak...

In fact, he seemed to have bogged down Lardo's remnants until Aria arrived.

"All right, master. I'll be stronger by the time the master gets back. And now I'll be able to protect my master!

"Oh well."

Though I wonder if we need to be stronger, it's a good thing we had some kind of goal.

I smiled and accepted her determination.

Then, a leash that suddenly becomes a mess and a mess.

"Well, then, will you praise me?

"Of course."

I wonder what you're going to say, is that it?

Again, I guess it's not very sweet.

I snorted at her. [M]

Next, a coolin with bright red hair.

"... I'm not convinced."

Coolin had red eyes, just like her hair color.

It won't be from anger or shame, it'll be from impenetrable thoughts.

"We're here because we're here to help the master, right? And yet the master eventually disappears... not that I'm convinced..."

Yes, only for me, members of the Army of Salvation, including Coolin, came all the way here to help.

In this dangerous place, like a large number of Lardo's remnants.

Coolin still seemed to blame herself even though that would fill me up. [M]

As I tried to speak, she exhaled one fuzzy louder.

"But this is something you can't help, right? When I think back to the rest of Lardo's party that caused this, it's annoying, but it's going to boil back, but there's no way the master's going to abandon us."

... I was a little surprised.

Coolin looked very grown-up.

Although Ritter grew enough to face the power of the devil, Coolin also seemed to grow enough to swallow irrationality.

"Of course, you're right. There's no way I'm abandoning you. You know how I feel, boulders are cool."

"Well, so much so..."

Don't you deny it?

Well, that's the cute thing about Coolin.

"Right. Because Coolin is so keen, I think he can give his opinion without fear, even if some of his people are doing something wrong. So if everyone in the guild tries to run in the wrong direction, I want you to help them."

"I think I've made a lot of mistakes already... ok, master"

Coolin accepts my favor.

Reese, who was a compiler alongside Anato, also recognised earlier that he was out of the picture.

If they both go bad, Coolin is probably the only one who can put it together.

Later members will really tend to give their desires the highest priority.

With these kids, I can take care of them while I'm gone.

Coolin nodded, looking up at me and laughing like a prank.

"Well, if you're going to do me a lot of favors, then of course the master will listen to my favors, right?

"Uh, yeah. Please do as much as you can..."

The trick is not to say anything.

I learned that.... I just told Ritter why.

"Nothing, I wouldn't ask for anything difficult. When you get back, let's go on a date with me."

But he took my arm and Coolin laughed.

Though I don't know about pushing my chest... I smile at the content of my adorable favor.

I came close and found tears creeping up in her eyes.

Still, Coolin tries to send me with a smile.

"Just the two of us, laugh, let's date"

"... right. Let's do that."

I snorted. [M]
