39. We need to talk

It was impossible for Amy to get on her own as she couldn’t move her legs properly.

As I crouched down, Amy put her hands around her neck and leaned against me, and I grabbed her thighs with her arms.

Although there is a difference in her physique, she is not so bad.

You are now at the bottom of the boss room, the deepest part of the dungeon… If you stay still, you will not be able to escape and you will be crushed to death.

After making sure that Amy held on tight, she started to escape quickly.

Amy whispered, as she buried her face in my neck.

“… Wasn’t it Mine?”

What kind of bullshit is this?

Live, live, hear all the voices of Mine.

Isn’t it true, back when I was an apprentice, I often heard that he was a ‘devil-like bastard’.

Did you fire the silver bullet because you thought I was a demon?

“Why am I Mine?”

“You were where the fanatics were conscious.”

It seems that it was a misunderstanding that occurred when we first dealt with the fanatics of the Devil’s Church.

“I found the Devil Church bastards before you and cut them up in advance. “

“Magi just came out… “

“The devil was also summoned, so I sent it along. She came out of his corpse.”

I must have mistaken that I had concluded a contract with the devil after seeing the traces emitted by the dead devil.

“I don’t know what I was thinking at the time, but I said it was a misunderstanding.”

“… Sorry.”

Amy said in a crawling voice.

I wanted to squeeze one in, but I endured it because it was on my back.

She decided that when she recovered, she would have to be fucked.

“But Atlas… I felt like if the devil told me to make me taller, I’d sign a contract right away.”

“That’s right.”

If demons weren’t scammers, I think I would have thought about it.

“I cut down a few demons, don’t you know they’re cheating?

And I said, tell me if you have any difficulties. What is this?”

“I couldn’t speak openly…. You lied to me.”

“Me?”

What are you talking about all of a sudden?

“Name… It’s not Atlas Nemea. I said everything, but Atlas gave me a fake last name..”

“How do you know that?”

“I have my own ways. It’s not Nemea, it’s the Atlas Titan.”

If you had entered the Titans when you entered, you would have been too noisy.

Because Titan is also a very prestigious family.

Rumors about the eldest son who doesn’t appear in public are still circulating in the social world.

Of course, the biggest reason for changing the last name now is that the Master or the bad guy has deserted the Imperial Knights, but that’s the case.

“That’s true, but Nemea is also my last name. Her mother’s surname is Nemea and her father’s surname is Titan. I’m just using my mother’s last name here.

I didn’t enroll as a member of the Titans… It’s a personal matter.”

“And he hid being a master….”

“Hey, then it’s embarrassing to say that masters are entering the academy… I didn’t enter because I wanted to.”

“I don’t like it, but why did you enter the school?”

“It’s a family situation.”

I entered as a freshman, but it’s strange to become a master.

I have nothing to say when someone of that level asks why the hell did he come here.

How would you react if your younger brother went in and told you to cool down….

Recently, I haven’t just been around, I’ve been hanging around with kids who can’t even sharpen a knife properly. Uh sell it

“If Atlas is the master of the empire… It must be one of the shadows of the Imperial Knights.”

“I know. “

There are three Masters in the Empire.

One is Linda West Harbor, the second leader of the Imperial Imperial Knights, and the other two have only announced that they exist in the Empire, but their identities have not been revealed.

Those who do not know who are the shadows of the Empire.

Unlike ordinary knights who take on official duties under the brilliant sun, they exist in the shadows without sunlight.

Those who carry out secret missions and can’t enjoy the glory of a master, but because of that, they don’t have much responsibility.

From noble mtl dot com

It’s not that I was forcibly deprived of glory by someone.

Two shadows, Master and I, chose that path by ourselves.

If you’re announced as a Master, you’ll enjoy great honor, but you’ll get a lot of attention from others.

Both liked to live their own way.

“Why does such a great person… Keep being nice to me…?”

“Do you really need a reason?”

“I… I was wary of any ulterior motives.

Atlas… You were so kind to me. I don’t have anything… She’s just the daughter of a poor viscount who owns a small estate…

I was terrified of taking Atlas’s kindness as pure courtesy…”

Amy is right.

Of course there was a plan.

Because you seem to have inherited Hayden’s destiny.

As I know what’s going on in this world, I wanted to keep you in my sight.

“You were kind to River too.”

“With River, we work out together and practice swordsmanship while talking about the same topic. I am not that either”

But that was just a trigger.

If that was really the reason, if you had the same personality as Hayden, the vengeful ghost, you would only put it within my sight, not beside me.

A lot of aristocrats come to this academy who grew up with gold and jade at home.

Most of them are people with communication disabilities without social skills who think only they are great, and most of them have personality problems.

“When people like people, backgrounds are not important.

You have a good personality and it’s fun to be with you, isn’t it enough?”

“You didn’t talk to me much…”

“You were avoiding me. In the future, if you try to talk to me, don’t avoid me.

What kind of shape is that? Are you out hunting demons every night?”

“I did it because I wanted to revitalize the territory.”

I want to hear more about how Amy became a Devil Slayer later.

Fighting the Devil Church is never easy.

It’s not something you can do alone.

The mithril greatsword on her back, the pistol, and the red coat of the anti-horse are all things that a viscount’s daughter can’t have.

You can be sure.

Obviously someone intervened in her life.

There was a teacher who taught Hayden in the original work as well. However, he is a character who can only move around without staying in one place.

Amy continued to live in her own estate, so this is also not correct.

She hides a lot from me, mane, but here Amy has lived a rather suspicious life.

But I didn’t want to pry into it now.

“It must have been difficult.”

“…… Yes.”

It was also because it was too long to talk, and Amy’s body, which was hanging on her back, was too weak.

Did she always fight like this?

The original main character, Devil Slayer Hayden Parker, has different physical conditions from Amy.

There are differences between men and women, but Hayden is tall, has a lot of muscles attached to his body, and above all, has a different mindset.

Unlike Hayden, who abandoned much of her humanity to avenge her after losing everything, Amy is still human.

It’s hard for her to fight non-humans with her humanity.

As Amy is thinking alone like now, and she is in danger of dying alone, she has to fix it for the future as well.

She says something happened with the Demon Church, and Amy tries to figure it out on her own, and if she fails, her empire will be destroyed just as she is.

If you just tell me, we can discuss how to solve it together.

Once the rest of us get out of here and Amy’s injuries are fully healed… Let’s do it next.

The collapse of the dungeon is getting worse.

A rock fell from the ceiling several times, but it didn’t even touch my body.

The exit is soon in front of you.

“Why… Did you save me…?”

Amy said softly, facing the brightly lit exit in front of her eyes.

She still had her face buried in the nape of her neck.

“I thought that Atlas was a demon, so I shot a gun… And wielded an aura blade…

Knowing that there was an ulterior motive, they widened their distance… I was so wrong with Atlas… “

‘I know I didn’t do anything wrong.’

I was going to slapp you first if you didn’t know you did something wrong, but it’s a good attitude to show your self-reflection.

I felt Amy’s voice tremble as she spoke quietly.

The nape of her neck against her face is hot.

Hot liquid ran down the nape of her neck.

I felt like I knew what it was without even looking at it.

What should I say?

Suddenly, I remembered what Master had said to me when I had just reached the level of Master.

“You’re my friend. Am I the only one who thought that?”

“….”

The sunlight was shining brightly on us who were wandering in the long and winding dungeon.

I safely got out of the dungeon where I couldn’t even see an inch ahead.

She’s a mess, but Amy survived as usual.

“Thank you for saving me.”

I wasn’t alone this time.

—————————————

Andy returned to the capital after a long absence.

She decided to receive a medal directly from the Imperial Palace for her brilliantly solving the academy dungeon runaway case.

From Andy’s point of view, Atlas expressed her opinion, but Atlas frowned at her.

‘Let’s assume that the senior solved everything. Everyone seems to think so. It’s not entirely wrong, is it?’

Atlas even told Andy to take credit for this case alone, saying that it would be annoying if his name was known.

As the reward was received at the imperial palace, Atlas’ judgment was correct in the end.

I am in a position to be chased by the Imperial Knights, but entering the capital where they are staying must be burdensome.

‘All right. I don’t care, let’s make this clear. I won’t let go if my name comes up at all.’

I’ll give you everything, so I know very well what it means to ask for your name not to appear.

“hehehe… One line rode well.”

It was very difficult to look after Atlas, who was running amok with only the minimum cause at the academy, but it was worth it.

Although his personality is a bit filthy, Atlas is a capable knight.

Unlike Andy, who ended up as an official member at best, he reached the position of an executive within the Imperial Knights.

That position is given only when you reach the highest level of expert within the Imperial Knights.

As soon as he lifted his apprenticeship ticket, Atlas acquired the title right away.

When Atlas said that if he took good care of his back, the rice cake dumplings would fall off, he thought it was an opportunity.

This incident is considered a fairly important event even in the imperial family.

It was a tremendous incident in which dozens of promising heirs of imperial aristocrats almost lost their lives.

The discovery of traces of the Devil Church means that they have broken through the academy’s ironclad security.

The fact that the academy’s security, which maintained a similar level of security as that of the imperial family, was breached provided an important clue that the Demon Church’s clutches could reach the current imperial palace.

The credit for safely handling this incident, which could have shaken the pillars of the empire if it was wrong, was very great.

“I’m proud of you. It’s nice to see you working hard even after leaving the Knights.”

“Thank you, Captain.”

In Andy’s eyes, he saw a gold-colored, flower-shaped medal hanging on his chest.

Grade 4 Gerbera Medal, an honorary medal given to knights who are active in critical moments.

The one holding the medal was a healthy-looking woman who looked only in her early thirties no matter how many times she held it.

Her ebony hair, neatly arranged in a plait, accentuated the pure white nape of her neck.

Her calm, beautiful eyes resemble the color of the dark night sea.

Her healthy-looking, flawless skin and warm atmosphere made her look like a female knight with not very long career, but the reality of her was completely different.

She is Linda West Harbor, the leader of the Imperial Knight Commander,

One of the only three Masters in the Empire appeared in person for the awards ceremony.

The fact that Linda West Harbor, whom she had been looking at from a distance because she was always busy and couldn’t see her properly even though she was a full-time member, appeared in person.

Linda leaned slightly in front of her to attach her medal herself.

Her Andy’s heart skipped a beat at the fact that her longed-for knight leader was right in front of her own eyes.

“So… “

She put her medal on Andy’s chest and said softly, as if to say a favor.

“Where is Atlas hiding?”

Andy thought she had heard something wrong.

“… Yes?”
