"Why, you betrayed me - Mr. Elena!!

Elena Millwood.

Me and my room are in the same room, and we've been living together for a month since we joined the Knights.

He looks so much like a woman that he mistakes it for a woman, but he was a true man.

Even after I find out I'm a man, I sometimes show a trick or look so illusory that I'm a woman.

I had no front or back, always had a bright and very likable personality, and we became very close in the same room...... should have.

The kind of smile that attracts people to Elena like that now disappears, standing in front of her.

Standing faceless at the entrance and exit of the house, looking at me.

I have my eyes together, but I can't feel anything from those eyes.

Why, Elena...!

"Did you pass the information...!

That's what I ask with my sword.

"Yeah, I am. I was the one who told the Lindo Empire that there were no more powerful soldiers in the country right now, Vice Commander Viviana and Vice Commander Liberto."

Elena speaks pale, faceless as she lines up the facts.

Elena, who had the usual bright and energetic way of talking, seems to be lying.

"Why did you betray me...! The reason you betrayed me is, what the hell!

I yell out loud like that.

From the outside you can hear the sound of fighting or someone screaming.

But now I feel as quiet as only the space here has been blocked.

The sound and screaming of the battle is supposed to be nearby, but it sounds as if it's ringing in the distance.

In that quiet space, Mr. Elena answers to whine small.

"I didn't betray you."

"What do you mean..."

"Originally, it means I'm not one of yours, Eric."

"So what's that... Huh!?

The moment I tried to ask again, Mr. Elena closed her eyes.

My eyes, which I have never missed before, close once, and when I look at them again...

- There were bright red stained eyes.

When fighting or manipulating magic, your eyes are stained with red that reminds you of the color of blood.

That's a trait that people don't have.

That trait is the same as the Felix Glazio I killed or the Irene I love, that is...

"Demons, were...!

"Yeah, I am. So I was originally on the Lindo Empire side. Well, not exactly."

We've been living together for a month now and I haven't noticed at all.

Originally there were no physical differences between demons and people.

The difference is that the color of the eyes changes, as Elena just did.

"Then why are you a soldier in the Kingdom of Begonia...!

"I'm a spy. This country was targeted by all sorts of demons, so I was sent in as a spy."

He takes his eyes off me and looks up, laughing a little like he remembers something.

"I went in from my apprenticeship so I don't get suspicious, so I guess I've been here about three years. Like it was a long time, like it was in no time... well, I don't care"

Laughing with his nose all the time, he talks to me again with a faceless face.

"Because I can finally leave here. This is the end of the troublesome mission. - Defeat you in the way."

With that said, Elena, who had nothing until just now, had daggers in her hands.

I guess I was planting it on the sleeve of my clothes.

I was stunned by a lot of things, but I was observing Mr. Elena without alarm at all.

"Sorry, but I'm not going to lose to you"

I've fought Mr. Elena in training before, but I haven't lost a single one.

Having daggers in both hands means they fight the same way as they do during training.

The weapon you have is a real weapon with blades for both Mr. Elena and me, but I can stun you without killing you.

Taking my word for it, Mr. Elena smiled for the first time here.

That smile wasn't pure as I know it, it was a distorted smile.

"Haha, Eric. Did you think I was serious about my training?

"Huh!"

"If Eric killed Felix Glazio, you know, demonic traits"

How do you know I killed him?

Are you a spy on the devil's side, so you know and deserve that much?

"When you get serious in battle, the Demons will have red eyes - do it!

That's what Elena said, jumping in with her bright red eyes.

- Fast!?

Surprised at the faster than I expected, I wave my sword.

But it is flushed with a dagger in Mr. Elena's right hand, wielding a dagger in his opposite hand.

"-Come on!"

With a dagger on my stomach that looks like it could sting me, I play around Elena's wrist with my bare hands and get off track.

My clothes tore and a dagger plundered on my right flank. But the wound is shallow.

This time is not good.

I can't shake my sword too close, and Mr. Elena's dagger will show off his main power to the fullest extent I think.

I can't back off, because Tina's asleep.

Before Mr. Elena moves on to his next attack, he kicks as much as he wants, aiming at his belly.

Mr. Elena, whose hands were crossed and prevented in a critical manner, but with that momentum retreats to the entrance and exit of the house.

Now I can make it.

But it was dangerous......

It would have been bad if they had done it with the momentum as it was.

As Elena said, the speed of training still didn't seem serious.

But that's all.

The approaching speed and the speed of waving the dagger did increase.

Still, I'm up there.

Even if the speed increases, it's not as good as Felix.

He was faster and more powerful.

He wasn't weak enough to retreat as much as Elena is now with my kick.

I'm getting stronger, but I'm still stronger - Huh!?

That's what I think, and suddenly the sight in front of me started to distort.

My legs also get confused about saying it for some reason, and I get flat and on my knees.

Hey, what...!

"I told you, Eric. I'm not a soldier, I'm an assassin."

You're slowly approaching me in front of me, Mr. Elena.

This is, no way...

"Out of the way...!

"Yeah, I'm poisoning my dagger. It's poisonous enough to pass out in seconds."

The appearance of Elena in front of me comes to Xia.

"You win, Eric. For the first time, I beat Eric. Especially not happy."
