58 – Muffin

A room with mirrors of different sizes and shapes attached to all sides.

In a strange place reminiscent of a kaleidoscope, a man opened his mouth with an emotionless face.

“Not only was the Heavenly God’s medium taken away, but the seeds of negativity and the ingredients for the elixir were also taken away… “

It was a tone of voice and facial expression that showed no particular emotion.

Seeing as he was emitting stronger magical energy than usual, I could tell that he was more angry than I imagined.

In response to such a reaction, the deputy abbot in charge of the matter shook his body and tried to come up with an excuse.

Before that, the angry man opened his mouth with an expressionless face.

“No matter what you say, it is worthless. Whatever it is now, it’s way beyond what you can handle.”

At the one word of sentencing, the vice abbot shouted urgently.

“Ma, if you give me one last chance, I will do anything! So please give me one last chance… !”

He spoke without even looking at me, as if it wasn’t even worth listening to.

“Even if given a chance, what can you do?”

“Yes… ?”

At that one word, the deputy abbot looks up at him with a blank expression on his face.

The man who secretly saw that expression revealed his expression for the first time and spoke with a face full of ridicule.

“This is a story about what on earth you can do when you have been unable to respond and continue to suffer massive damage even though you had ample time to prevent it.”

“Well, that is.”

“If I were to give you additional opportunities, would anything change?”

“…… “

The vice abbot kept his mouth shut as if he had nothing else to say.

He must have sensed that he couldn’t stay like this, so he shouted urgently.

“Dern… It’s because of him! That’s because he mobilized all his family’s power to make a move! If only he hadn’t had that guy!”

He stopped laughing at that one word and spoke to the vice-abbot in a very calm voice.

“In that case, you should have requested support from our school. “It’s not about hiding or manipulating the fact that you’ve been harmed.”

“…… ” “It doesn’t matter what happens. “It’s meaningless now.”

He seemed to feel that this conversation itself was meaningless, so he lifted his finger to indicate that he should not say any more.

Soon, he ripped off one of the mirrors attached to the wall and placed it on the desk as he spoke.

“The negative emotions extracted from demons do not have much value… Even if you pull it out, it’s not really worth it. “In order to alert the members of the Heavenly God Church who have recently become complacent, I ask you to suffer for as long as possible and satisfy your needs.”

The moment he was told to suffer for a long time, the assistant abbot started screaming as if he was struggling.

He tried to stab his own heart with the dagger he had in his arms, thinking it wouldn’t work soon.

“You should be punished and die.”

He paused lightly and spoke, pointing to the mirror he had taken out.

“To be precise, it might be more appropriate to make a noble sacrifice for the Demon God rather than a punishment. Well, no matter what, it’s something you’ve always done. “I don’t need to add any explanation, but you know what I’m talking about.”

“Please, please… only once.”

“Didn’t I tell you? “There is no chance.”

With those words, he struck down the vice-abbot with enormous magic power and threw him into the mirror.

Then, as if I liked the quiet surroundings again, I rearranged the mirror again with a satisfied expression on my face.

Someone knocks on the door and comes inside.

“Abbot. “I have gathered all the information about Espin and Delia.”

Hearing those words, he slowly turned his gaze to look at him, then smiled brightly and spoke.

“Already? Inspector General. Thank you for your hard work.”

“No. “It’s the abbot’s request, so of course I have to do it.”

“I never thought you would be this great… “I’m sure Heavenly God will remember this.”

In a room that was once filled with screams, the sound of laughter echoes instead.

He smiled for a long time, as if he was very satisfied with that, and then slowly read the report and opened his mouth.

“Espin and Delia… Although both of them are difficult to touch. “But they are not people you can’t touch.”

“Yes. “Especially in the case of Espin, if you can put pressure on the high-ranking administrator, Count Etis, it won’t be too difficult to touch him.”

“It’s pressure… That’s not difficult. For this purpose, countless believers have established themselves in their respective positions over a long period of time.”

Hearing those words, the head of the inspection department paused for a moment, as if he was momentarily scared.

He smiles again and nods his head. After all, he was one of the people holding a tight rope called the ‘Celestial Order.’

That’s why I opened my mouth, showing that I wasn’t particularly worried.

“Then would you like to start with Espin? “All preliminary preparations have been completed.”

“That would be a good idea. “No matter what, it’s better to start early.”

“Yes. Then, the moment Count Etis is put under pressure, members of the Inspection Department are mobilized and tortured… No, let’s start the pressure investigation.”

“Please do me a favor.”

He looked satisfied again and nodded his head, signaling the end of the conversation.

The heavenly god of the demons, the demon god.

The moment I realized that fact, I had no choice but to remain blank for quite a long time.

Because the song is sung as ‘Heavenly God, Heavenly God’, I naturally thought that he was a human god.

I never dreamed that something worse than that would come out.

‘Drank… ‘He’s a demon.’

It was difficult to express this as there were no detailed descriptions in the novel.

Looking at the name, it was clear that he was a higher-ranking being than the Demon King, so my mind couldn’t help but become confused.

‘In the novel, not even the Demon King could stop it, so the world was virtually declared to be destroyed.’

It’s frustrating to hear that there is a higher being than that.

‘The good news is that there was no content related to demons at all until the middle and latter half of the novel.’

Considering that Rumi had not even found a trace until then.

At least until the mid to late half, there was no need to worry about the demon god descending.

‘So now, let’s stop the demon from descending as much as possible.’

It would be right to find a way to take down the Heavenly God Church and the Demon King.

With such thoughts in mind, I am now deciding that rather than focusing on research, it would be better to take direct action.

Someone knocked on the lab door.

“Deer Eun.”

My name is heard with a faint laugh.

The moment I heard this, I quickly realized that it was Rumi knocking on the lab door and spoke briefly.

“What’s going on?”

“It’s over there. I baked really big muffins this time… ! “The moment I made it, I thought I should give it to Dern. Would you like to eat this?”

The other day, when he saw me eating a muffin without saying anything, he must have mistaken me for liking muffins.

I thought about rejecting Rumi’s words like that, but…

‘If I refuse, I’ll be squatting in front of the door all day crying.’

He answered in a sighing voice, deciding to just accept the muffin and kick it out.

“Please come in.”

“… Yes

Rumi quickly came in with a lively answer.

She looked around, then carefully placed the muffin she had brought on her desk and spoke to me.

“I’m sure it will be delicious… ! Even the chef said it was delicious!”

“Really?”

“Yes! I’ve been practicing muffins for Dern all day, so I’m sure… !”

While Rumi was speaking, she paused.

She soon covers her own mouth with her hand, showing an expression of shame.

It seemed a shame that it took so long to finish the muffins.

‘I don’t know why I’m embarrassed by that… ‘

She grabbed it, thinking that it was a very happy thing that she made it for me.

“Thank you. “Let’s eat well.”

“… Yes!”

He seemed too shy, so I expressed my gratitude at the appropriate time.

Rumi smiles and nods her head quickly.

I thought to myself that if Rumi had her tail, she would be wagging it so quickly as she took a bite out of it.

Rumi glances at me and asks a question in a voice that gradually becomes quieter.

“Hey there… “I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“That cat… “When did you bring him here?”

Hearing those words, Luna next to me glared at Rumi, saying ‘Kyaaa!’

Soon she quickly approached Rumi and started throwing her merry punches.

“Wow… ! “Oh, it hurts!”

I never thought he would get beaten up by a cat.

I think the heroine is overly weak, and I’m trying to calm her Luna down.

Rumi laughs and talks to me in a low voice.

“I think Dern always saves me… “

I don’t know what else to say, so I keep her mouth shut.

Rumi slowly got up and spoke to me.

“Still, I can’t be protected by Dern forever… “I will become very strong, and I will protect Dern in the future!”

… Dara protected me.

I nodded slowly, thinking that those words were truly Rumi-like.

Rumi continued to smile and talk in a low voice.

“Not only from enemies, but also from other girls.”

The moment I heard that, I looked at Rumi, wondering what that meant.

Rumi tilts her head and looks at me as if she doesn’t even know what she said.

I was about to say something to Rumi, but soon she shook her head and shut her mouth.
