Episode 192 – I was my parents’ stain 4
The hall used for every banquet was dusty. I haven’t had a party since my parents died, so it’s only natural that the hall is as dusty as it is in my heart.
At 12:00 noon, as promised, family and relatives began to gather in the hall.
“Hmm, that’s arrogant. A child telling adults to come and go.”
“I would have severely rebuked you for your insolence, had you not called me to speak of the county seat and the distribution of your inheritance.”
“Anyway, why is it so dark? I’ll light a candle at least.”

Normally, even if I called them, most of them ignored them, but when they talked about the distribution of the inheritance and the succession of the family headship, it was really funny that they called their children along with them. But it’s okay, because that’s until today anyway.
“What I called you today is first of all about the ability of the family head. I realized. Until now, I’ve been too slow as a family head.”
“Yes, you are definitely younger than your father and have no ability. Besides, the position of head of household is not a position that a young person can handle.”
“…I’m too bitchy. I’ve let too many food-eating bugs live in my house.”
I treated them too softly because they were relatives of Mother Airi and Mother Glaceon. Should have done this in the first place. This is my mistake, and I had to endure the aftermath of doing this as food for me to reflect on my mistake.
“Is that what you mean by calling us worms?”
“They are like flies that gnaw away at the prestige of the family. No, they are like cockroaches in the gutter. No. That’s why you can’t just cut off the legs of cockroaches… I’m going to clean up all the bugs today.”
“Did you think that you could beat everyone in this room just because you had a little talent in magic and martial arts? How foolish you are.”
Everyone radiated magic power and began to draw their weapons. I’m sure I won’t be able to kill them all with just my magic and martial arts.
“That’s why I have prepared something for you.”
I took out the magic book Enoch that my father left behind in my arms.
“That’s… you dare to take out the treasure without knowing its value! Do you think you can use the magic written there!”
“Certainly, the magic described here is still too much for me. But that’s not the only means.”
[Open the sealed field, Enoch, it’s time for a deal. We will give you a part of our souls, so give us your strength. The power to defeat them.]
“A madman has dabbled in black magic. Selling his soul to the devil…”
“There’s no family shame…! By the way, this magical power…”
“But we…”
At that moment, thunder and lightning struck, illuminating the dark hall. And relatives could see it too. Friends who are like my limbs that follow me. We all sold our souls to the devil. I decided to dedicate a part of my life to face the pain. I swore that I would never sell my personality to the devil no matter what.
“hahahahaha…! Damien! This power kills me anytime! It feels like I’m overflowing with energy! My heart is beating with a refreshing and tremendous sense of elation!”
“Well, as long as he touched Damian, I wanted to kill him separately without asking.”
“… Well, since I trained with cramming, there must be something lacking, but I don’t think I’ll lose at all. Is this black magic?”
“As an elder brother, you cannot ignore your younger brother’s request.”
All of them made a deal with the devil for me.
“Crazy guys…! They sold their souls to the devil as a group! According to the warlocks, do you cooperate with that guy only after knowing it!”
When my uncle, Rudfell, shouted, Captain Neil replied with a hearty laugh.
“Of course you don’t know. But no matter how terrible… Because our friend Damian asked for it. I’ll sell you my soul, body, or pride. Life is a series of priorities! My friend Damian has more priority than life or body!”
“After hanging out with low bloodlines, now you’re even brothers with them!”
Of course, he was no longer obliged to answer that cry.
All that continued after that was a one-sided slaughter. Blood splattered like a fountain, flesh flew like birds, and organs strewn about like ornaments.
Black magic was so powerful. My father and mother said that I had the talent to rise to the top without fail as I sharpened my sword-holding magic… but this was the power I gained after giving up all of that future. It would definitely take a long time to acquire the skills I was holding a sword or practicing magic.
So I gave up on my future. I gave up the future and chose the present. No, I chose to abandon my future and lead the future of my younger sisters. Because my father said I had to protect my sisters. Because it was the only atonement left for me to make my parents do that with useless promises.
Finally, I grabbed the remaining uncle Rudfel by the neck.
“Do you think you’ll be forgiven for doing this! Do you think His Majesty the Emperor would tolerate a warlock!”
“Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor tolerated it because it was a state of affairs. In order to calm the chaos outside the country, it is a situation where we have to borrow the power of something more than a warlock.”
“You can’t…!”
“Yes, we are still young, but we will go to the battlefield from now on. Of course, since we can’t show warlocks to the people, our credit will change to others’ credit… But if we wanted something like honor in the first place, we wouldn’t have chosen black magic. Thanks to that, I was able to get the right not to hold anyone accountable for killing anyone and various things.”
Of course, His Majesty the Emperor was someone who had been taught by my father in the past. It would have been okay to ask him for help, but it was a nuisance to ask him to purify so many powerful people when the country is in chaos. That’s why I promised to pay as much as I lost.
“We will remain those who simply sold our souls to the devil for self-interest. But it doesn’t matter. It’s a deal based on self-interest, not patriotism for our country.”
Uncle Rudfell laughed at my situation with a chuckle.
“Yes, even if the Emperor knows, what will others think of you? Your sister? Other nobles and citizens? Will they appreciate your sacrifice? Are you confident enough to bear their gaze?”
“… I don’t care if my sisters don’t love me.”
“What…”
“If it’s normal brother and sister to exchange 50 love each other and 100 of the total back and forth… Even if that child sends me 100 hate, I will love 200, no 300 no more. I will send it. That will keep the brother and sister’s righteousness. Even if they hate me, I’ll have to love and protect them more than that. And…”
With his right hand, which had turned into a hideous blade, he pierced Uncle Rudfell’s abdomen.
“If I didn’t have the courage to be hated, I wouldn’t have started. The meaning of my existence as a human being has long since disappeared within me. The only value left for me is to carry out my father’s words to protect my younger sisters.”
As long as the elements that threatened my sisters disappeared, as long as their safety continued to be guaranteed, I could have given up my trivial life. that’s why i’m alive
“Yes, in the afterlife, I am leisurely watching the faces of your parents as they watch you crumble.”
“There’s no way you’re going to the same place as my parents.”
I threw away the limp corpse.
Then I saw Rachel watching me from behind the door and then running away. For a moment, I wondered if I should explain all of this to Rachel. If you run right now and explain, he will surely understand.
But it didn’t. If my relatives, who were superficially nice to me, were actually aiming for my own life and the lives of my other siblings… they’d rely too much on me and stop trusting others.
Warlocks don’t live long. Rachel, who has to live for a long time without me, will be unhappy if she can’t trust others.
Captain Neil came up to me and asked a question.
“Is it okay if I don’t go and explain?”
“Because that child’s life is more important than my feelings. You said that. Life is a series of priorities. I just prioritized that child’s life over mine.”
Then Neil put his hand on my head again. I wanted to hit my head again, but he stroked my head.
“Poor fellow… But don’t be too heartbroken. We’re here.”
