113. Looking for you

… Wasn’t he a regressor? It seems like you’ve been through all of the aerial battles in your previous life.

But I don’t understand why I’m so surprised by Esther’s appearance.

Ah, are you trying to act with Lily and Master by your side?

“What a surprise! You almost fell off your liver!”

“Sorry.”

“Oops. Be surprised really….”

No matter how you look at it, that doesn’t look like smoke, does it?

The fact that she is holding on to her chest while she has tears in her eyes, that must have surprised her.

Even if he’s a regressor, his skills are just right for his current situation.

Because he still has a lot to learn, he couldn’t even confirm Ester’s approach.

For that reason, it was clear that he was in such a shock that he was floundering.

I’m a bit uneasy about how different the regressor I’ve been imagining is.

“Oh, hello.”

But the funny thing is, Iris is surprised, but why is Esther hiding behind me?

Looking at her face like this, it seems that Esther is more frightened than Iris.

Iris was a bit startled and she screamed, but Esther was also startled.

One is an overachiever, and the other is a serious timid.

This was a situation that could be called a disciple who didn’t fit in at the level of water and oil.

It’s Iris who stole the maknae’s place.

“Oh, hello. If… Are you Esther Marigold?”

“Ugh…. Eh, Esther is me.”

“Okay. Well, why are you hiding behind Master?”

“… Because I’m scared.”

“Yes?”

“Are you scared? Because I’m afraid of that….”

At Esther’s words, Iris asked what she meant.

Perhaps what Esther is afraid of isn’t just other people.

I wonder if it’s because of the horns on my head that the other person is looking at me to be precise.

But Iris is a regressor, she already knows that she is.

It may have been in my previous life, but it won’t be here.

“Why am I afraid of my senior and my sister-in-law! It doesn’t matter if you have horns on your head! Rather, if it appears quietly like that, it’s more scary, so just call out.”

“… Really? Me… Aren’t you afraid?”

“Really! Why am I afraid of the hero! I am also a warrior, warrior!”

“… Really?”

“Really, really!”

This guy sure knows how to treat Esther well, right?

The best way to approach a child is to become another child yourself.

In order to do that, I quickly get rid of difficult explanations or logic.

Simple and clear words, and a little bit of reason, you can get close right away.

Iris was actively using that part.

“Ummm….”

And Esther began to act the way Iris wanted.

Looking at the surroundings is the look of confirming that no one will look at me.

The soldiers who happened to be nearby also fell out to organize the battlefield elsewhere.

No one was paying attention this way, probably because the atmosphere was to give the warriors a little rest.

Ester is better than the other students when it comes to detecting presence.

The fact that he is relieved means that it is really okay to be relieved.

After a while, Esther carefully puts the hood behind her.

Silver hair is shining! And pouring down

Next, a black horn protrudes from his head.

– Asmodians –

Yes. Esther Marigold’s identity is, as I said before, a demon.

If you look at fantasy novels or games, it’s rare that demons don’t appear.

Unusually, the only remaining demon was put in as a hero character.

I think it was probably some kind of device for throwing rice cakes.

Unlike other warrior characters, he likes to be alone.

It turns out that there are no words and there is no interaction between the characters.

To throw a traitor rice cake when I see ‘Evil’ in a negative light.

It is a character that was created to arouse interest in the story.

Of course, looking at that guy, he’s a potential traitor, and he’s the one who’s going to kill you.

So he found that he wasn’t just enjoying being quiet and alone.

To be left alone in the world is a loneliness that cannot be explained in words.

Because he has black horns on his head, which is an ominous feeling itself, he is lonely and cannot belong anywhere.

In the meantime, even the suffering caused by demon worshipers who keep trying to attract him.

It was a small, silver-haired demon girl who had been hurt like that since she was very young.

“….”

Ester pulls down the hood and quietly notices it.

A little while ago, I heard that a good sister-in-law to the youngest would become a senior.

He is a senior who shows a nervous side to the youngest.

“….”

Iris just looked at Esther without saying anything.

Thanks to that, only Esther becomes more and more nervous and at a loss for what to do.

Even though Lily warns her not to look at her, Iris continues to stare at her horns.

What on earth was he thinking to maintain that kind of behavior?

Iris knows that what Esther hates the most is staring at her.

I bet the regressor doesn’t even know that.

You will soon find out why they persist in such behavior.

“… Cool.”

“Eh, huh?”

“Awesome! Sister Esther! Seniors! Me, how can I not get horns like that?!”

“Eh, eh? Huh? OMG?”

“Have you ever grabbed something between the horns! And does the electricity go out? Or a spark? Wow, look at the color. It’s a solid black light. This is really so cool…. Esther sunbaenim is really the best….”

“Awesome… ? Hey, is this cool? Really?”

“Of course. Esther sunbaenim’s hair color is like that, and he’s a very pretty person, so something heavy and cool is lacking! But with the horns sprouting like this, it offsets that!”

Even after that, Iris continued her relay of compliments that seemed a bit nonsensical.

Most of them were talking about Esther’s horn, but Esther didn’t give her a chance to speak.

Keep poking her to make her feel good, so that in the end she has no choice but to nod.

Especially by taking advantage of the fact that Esther is very timid unlike the other warriors.

Rather than the content of the praise, it was Iris who promoted her as a great being in itself.

Anyone who isn’t a regressor must have figured out exactly how to handle Esther.

I also treated Esther in a way that praised or raised expectations like that.

Looks like a grown-up wife, but at the core, she is still a girlish hero of our poison.

If there is an infinite supply of compliments and sincere admiration, of course there is no choice but to go over it.

“This, this… really that cool… ?”

The other disciples also know that Esther has large black horns.

But I heard that there are few people who have seen it in person.

She prefers Esther to work alone, and even when she meets, she wears a hoodie.

The only thing I saw in person was Lily, who was still staying with Esther when she was next to me.

In other words, there was only one case where Esther showed her complex, the horn, to someone else.

The one time he showed me those black horns on his head.

That’s why he’s going to be extremely stressed about his horns.

Iris’s sincere compliments, envy-filled eyes, and even a bit of excessive flirtation.

For Esther, who was always timid because she couldn’t be quiet.

That is a great shock, and it will inevitably come in a positive direction.

Ha, Iris, that guy. You’ve been acting like an idiot, but you’re still paying for a regressor!

I wonder if this is what it feels like when the coins you bought without expecting much suddenly go up!

“Of course. However, seniors are afraid that others will be surprised when they see this. You’re covering up for them. That kind of feeling is the same, and it feels so good to have someone like this right above me!!”

I was afraid that others would see me and whisper, so I put on the hood by myself.

At that part, another plane is set up to fly it very high.

Could it be that Iris is not the last hero, but actually the hero of flattery?

“… Thank you. No, I’m the youngest.”

“Iris. My name is Iris Futurewalker.”

“Ah, yes… Ha, but I like to call you the youngest.”

“Do whatever you want! Because I don’t care!”

Thanks to Esther, even though the person who usurped her youngest position was right in front of her eyes.

There was no look of caution, envy, or jealousy at all.

Even though she seems clumsy in expressing her emotions, she is an honest, child-like Aster.

So I was a little worried that if these two met, something embarrassing would happen.

But looking at the current situation, I don’t think I need to worry too much.

From noble mtl dot com

Due to the nature of esters, once you accept them, you will never be rejected again.

If you go beyond extreme timidity, you tend to hold on tight.

“Come on, let’s both go there. People are coming from the other side.”

As soon as Lily said that, Esther hurriedly pulled the hood over herself.

Although it feels good to hear such compliments from Iris.

It seems that it and other people seeing the horns are completely different issues.

“Heroes.”

A group of royal knights greet the disciples with a polite expression.

Even though everyone is exhausted from the aftermath of the battle, there is no distraction.

At the very least, they looked like those who guarded the leadership.

Such royal knights approach me unexpectedly.

Of course I thought I was going to go to Lily or Iris and tell her business.

It seemed that someone who knew about me had given the order.

“Ester.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Don’t pull it out.”

“Ah…. Yes yes….”

As the knights approached, Esther reflexively tried to pull out the dagger.

For your information, Esther possesses extreme skills not only in poison but also infiltration and assassination.

Because he appeared in the game as an assassin character who wipes out the enemy from the back line.

Perhaps such secrecy, excessive vigilance, and coldness were natural.

“A great man.”

“I think the title is a bit excessive.”

“I heard that you are the teacher of the warriors. Doesn’t that mean you’re higher than that?”

“I do.”

“We are people who only know how to handle swords, so I don’t know what else to say. However, since he is the teacher of those warriors, I just want to call him a great man.”

“… Go ahead and explain why you came to visit me all of a sudden.”

The knights looked at my question for a moment before opening their mouths.

“His Majesty came to his senses a little while ago.”

“He came to his senses. Good news, you guys don’t look so good.”

“… In fact, you are still not well.”

“Isn’t the story of His Majesty’s concubine a topic that should never be shared? If you tell me that, you mean I’ll find out soon anyway.”

That’s why these articles found me.

The reason why I talk in such detail about the king’s condition that I didn’t ask….

“Your Majesty is looking for you. Very quickly and desperately.”
