I Stayed Loyal When My Teacher Was Betrayed - I Stayed Loyal When My Teacher Was Betrayed chapter 52

52 – Ramen with You 6

The demon king lamenting the liberation of Brünhilde.

The Valkyrie members, who had been pretending to sleep, began to show strong reactions.

“What… What trick are you planning?”

“Don’t even think about playing some silly trick! If you do anything strange with Brünhilde, I’ll…”

“Enough. Everyone calm down.”

Rosetta firmly restrained them with a resolute voice.

However, while responding sensitively to Brünhilde’s words, she also stood even taller than before and spoke.

“What exactly are you demanding? It seems like you have no intention of resolving this issue politically, judging by the fact that you’ve singled it out.”

“Yes, that’s right. As expected, communication is key, Master.”

“So, what is this condition that lacks political implications?”

“Hehe… Isn’t it obvious? Even the Master must know what I want now.”

“I know, so you th…!!!”

In that moment, Rosetta froze stiffly as something came to mind.

Continuing,

Their gazes remained fixed on each other.

They turned towards me, who had been observing from the side.

“…You…”

“As I thought, you already know well. What I desire, the man right here, Edmund…”

-Snap!

Sharp blades aimed around Lorcaney.

Rosetta’s chillingly cold magical power made the already grim situation even more frigid.

“Do you think I would agree to such a deal? No matter the circumstances, if you target my man, I will never forgive you.”

“My…man?…”

Lorcaney’s smile faded slightly at those words.

But soon, she forced an awkward laugh and spoke.

“Haha… I see, it has come to that already… Ha… Well, I guess there were some signs. We’ve been together for a longer time than anyone else…”

A voice tinged with impatience.

While observing her, Rosetta began to feel an unwarranted sense of superiority.

But Lorcaney remained unyielding and continued to speak.

“But it doesn’t matter. Whether it’s the first or the second, I must have that man.”

“Ha…”

Lorquine said, increasing her momentum.

At the same time she emitted her magical power, the blades pointed at her scattered into smoke.

No matter where they sat, the other party was a devil.

It was a tough opponent for Rosetta, who had weakened in strength compared to the past.

Addressing Rosetta, who was frowning slightly.

Lorquine said.

“If you don’t agree to my terms, you won’t be able to save this woman in any way, Brünhilde. Even if you kill me, the brainwashing won’t be lifted, and in some situations, the negotiations so far can be overturned. Well, it’s your decision. Judge it yourself.”

“…”

They also meant they wouldn’t back down.

At that moment, when Rosetta and the Valkyrie members were pondering this.

“Please do so.”

“Edmund!”

“We can’t change our course just because of one person. Brünhilde… It’s a matter of many people’s lives.”

“Ha…”

The decisive action of moving forward.

Rosetta wanted to stop it, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it.

As he said, this incident involved the lives of many people.

Refusing it would burden his heart even more.

Upon reflection, all of this was part of the devil’s scheme.

Rosetta could only chew on her anger at her cunningness in setting conditions that were impossible to refuse from the start.

And.

“Hehehe… You made the right choice!”

“!”

“Ha!”

“Mmm…”

The devil embraced Edmund’s body so naturally.

Rosetta’s expression collapsed, and Freya’s face twisted.

“So… what will you do? Will you go through with the kidnapping like this?”

Edmund, asking questions in a stern voice.

Regarding this matter, the Demon Lord replied in a light voice.

“No, even if you try such things, you would only hate me more. I won’t do such ignorant things. However…”

“…?”

Immediately after that, the Demon Lord’s face started turning red again, just like when they were alone with Edmund before.

And…

“! You…you woman…”

“Eudeuk!”

She kissed Edmund right then and there.

The atmosphere became even more sinister with her action, devoid of any hesitation or restraint.

And…

As she slowly released her lips, the words came out of her mouth…

“If you could be with me, and spend time with me once a week from now on, only with me.”

“…Huh?”

This was a story quite different from what he had expected, and confusion began to show on Edmund’s face.

“Um…is that really all?”

“Yes, it is.”

“Rather than becoming a slave or something like that?”

“Even so, I don’t have the audacity to ask a person who defeated me to become their slave as a Demon Lord.”

“Hmm…”

“Frankly speaking, I want you by my side every day, but I also understand your position for a while… Besides, as a fellow woman, I should be able to understand another woman’s heart.”

She unexpectedly showed her pure side in this regard.

Regarding this matter, Edmund let out a relieved sigh and spoke to her.

“Sigh… I understand. I will accept that much.”

“Ah!”

Lorquinea showed a sincere expression of joy upon hearing those words.

Without leaving behind the ominous atmosphere from earlier, she held onto Edmund tightly, just like a woman who succeeded in confessing her love, appearing pure and unaltered.

*

A situation where an unexpected confession was received.

In response, Edmund felt quite embarrassed, yet at the same time, he didn’t entirely dislike it.

Even if it was a false appearance, it was true that Vernie had some fondness for Bernie.

And now, the demon lord Lorckine in front of me was simultaneously showing both the image of a demon lord and that appearance of Vernie.

If she didn’t really have any fondness for me from the start, there would be no reason for her to make such a proposal.

Although it was a complicated feeling, I decided to accept it positively since I had no choice but to accommodate her.

Of course, I still felt burdened by the two enraged women behind us, angrily cursing under their breaths.

“Well… then. As promised, please release Brunehide quickly.”

“Ah, right. Come to think of it?”

*Tock!*

Lorckine lightly flicked her finger exactly as I said.

Then, the horn of Brunehide, who was standing behind in a daze, snapped, making a crisp sound.

Just like that, her vitality returned to her eyes.

“Huh? Wha… where am I…?”

“Ah!”

“Brunehide!”

“Wait… Wait a moment. What is all this…?”

The three of us ran toward her, baffled by her confusion.

Seeing that she seemed to have returned to normal, we could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

But…

“Now, come along quickly.”

“Huh? Come along…”

“Why suddenly this talk?”

Roseita and I expressed our doubts.

In response, Lorckine wore a deep smile and answered.

“Didn’t I tell you? You promised to give me one day a week. Starting from this moment, it will be one day. Since I happen to know a nice place, let’s go and spend some private time together.”

“Ah…”

“Ugh…”

Roseita tried to hide her boiling expression, but she couldn’t stop it.

At that moment…

“Hmm?”

“What… what is it?”

Quietly approaching Rosetta, Loriene whispered into her ear.

Immediately after,

“Is that… really?”

“Of course, even though I may not look like it, I am the Demon King. Isn’t it natural for me to give such a gift for my master?”

“….Hmm… Well, if you’re going to go that far…”

“Hehe.”

Rosetta’s face, although still somewhat dissatisfied, seemed to soften a bit.

I’m not sure what they were talking about, but once they eased the atmosphere, Loriene used magic to open his black pupils and wet them.

“Well then, shall we go? I will make sure you have the best time of your day today.”

“Hmm…”

A situation that can literally be called the temptation of the Demon King.

Feeling a sense of unease, but following the agreement, I entered that place with her.

Immediately afterwards, the surroundings began to change in an instant.

Clearly, I had arrived at a surprisingly peaceful place within the Adventurers Guild.

An expansive meadow stretched out before us,

Warm breeze was blowing, and we were located in a clear space.

And in the center, there was a small house.

Honestly, I had imagined a dark and rather gloomy place, but I couldn’t help but think that it was quite different from that expectation.

And…

“Well, please come in.”

“Uh… alright… I understand.”

The Demon King opened the door and entered the house.

I followed suit and went inside.
