My Daughters Have Become Gods - My Daughters Have Become Gods chapter 11
11 – Reasoning
Spy… A spy…….
If you think about your experience in previous wars, spies were always in unexpected places.
Many people thought that the spies hiding within the Allied Forces against the Demon King’s Army were greedy humans or those who did not fully cooperate with the Allied Forces.
Well, in fact, there were many traitors among those people, and demons were summoned because of them after the war ended, so it is not completely wrong.
However, the spies who inflicted serious damage on the Allied Forces were not like that.
A person who has worked for humanity for a long time.
Most of the spies had been fighting for the Allied Forces for a long time.
These people could not even be imagined as spies because they had a good reputation among those around them.
Because only such people could access confidential information without suspicion.
So when the spies were caught, the shock was even greater. The people I trusted so much betrayed me.
Typically, such appeasement was achieved by holding their family members or loved ones hostage.
That’s why it was even more vicious.
There are many people who can endure their own pain…… Because he couldn’t stand the suffering of his precious people, who were the reason he was fighting the Demon King’s army.
When I also think of children being held hostage…….
The numerous spies that arose during the war against the Demon King’s Army caused enormous damage to our allied forces.
It was bound to happen because confidential information was stolen in a war where the weapon of information was fatal.
The biggest shock was when the aide who was assisting our warrior party betrayed us.
Our entire party encountered the Demon King and was almost wiped out.
If the Holy Sword’s ability had not been awakened there…… Humanity would have been destroyed just like that.
Because of the spies, the battle that could have been won was lost, the planned strategy was in vain, and many comrades lost their lives.
It has become a place of distrust where it is confusing who to trust and who to rely on.
However, as I awakened a special ability in the holy sword, I was able to sort out those parts.
But even if we leave that aside, I have experience catching spies.
At best, a spy like this is nothing.
The method of finding spies in the past life was relatively simple.
Excluding those who can handle specific abilities or advanced magic, when a problem arises due to the information given by a spy, the heart rate of the spy is very fast compared to other people.
That’s because there is a possibility that he will be suspected because the incident occurred due to information he passed on.
In this case as well, an incident occurred in which Planme and I were attacked due to information passed on by a spy.
He will know that this incident occurred because of him and he will be nervous.
So, I spread divine power throughout the mansion to check people’s heartbeats.
Although he is still only five, he possesses an overwhelming amount of divine power that he has been able to handle since he possessed the holy sword.
It was so large that it was enough to secretly cover the entire mansion.
I was aware of the heartbeats of all living things within the mansion.
This is an incredible amount of perception that a five-year-old child could achieve.
He is so nervous that he could be a spy…….
Among the people currently in the mansion, there were three whose heartbeats were abnormally fast.
The maid Ladori, the cook Rachel, and…… Deacon Harrison.
Check the status of each.
The range of detection through divine power has been narrowed and the resolution has been increased.
Then, the person and the surrounding space were perceived to me like a video.
The first person.
Maid Ladori.
A new maid who has just arrived and is not very good at her job.
Considering that he is new, there is a possibility that he is a spy.
Since she is a maid in her own right, it is also possible for her to know and pass on information about the meeting between the Allerto family and the Planme family.
Upon closer inspection, I found that Radori was secretly doing laundry.
Why does she hide and do the laundry secretly? It wouldn’t be weird if she just did it because that’s what she used to do.
…… Could it be that he dropped the clean laundry while carrying it and got it dirty?
Certainly, Rado-ri was bad at her maid’s work, and she had done so before and was scolded severely by her maid Jang.
So, is she doing this in hiding so that her maid, Jang, does not find out that she has soiled the laundry?
If that’s the case, that abnormal heartbeat is understandable.
Spy…… I don’t think so.
It’s not that I haven’t thought about the possibility that it was acting, but….
No matter how you look at that appearance, it is not true.
Next is Chef Rachel.
Rachel is a cook who has been loyal to our family for a long time.
Even though she has been loyal to our family for a long time, we cannot exclude her from being a dragon.
On the contrary, I have often seen cases where people in such cases became spies.
As she has been working for a long time, she is very familiar with our family’s events.
You must have seen Me and Planme leaving the mansion.
She must have also known that she only took Hans out.
Then it wouldn’t be strange if she handed over her information.
I looked at Rachel by increasing her resolution….
Uh…… No, wait a minute, what is he doing now?
Rachel hiding in a corner of her kitchen licking something of her own.
Lick…… There is?
I focused my divine power even more on the faint appearance.
Then, gradually, Rachel’s appearance began to be seen clearly.
What she is licking is a cup.
A cup?
Why the cup?
I strengthened her energy with her divine power and listened to the sounds coming from her.
-Ha, hahahaha. The cup that you licked. Tsk tsk tsk.
Doryeon…… Sir?
Me?
Is that the cup I used?
…… I can’t speak.
You’re licking the cup I used?
Why?
…… Why?
An unexpected sight.
The moment I recognized it, my thoughts stopped.
What is it?
What is that?
Rachel…… The reason you always treat me so kindly is…….
Uh…… I’m dizzy.
First of all, I guess he’s not a spy.
Could it be that they are acting like spies?
It’s not something you should do when you’re nervous about what you’ve done, that’s for sure.
Above all, I don’t think I will do anything dangerous.
From noble mtl dot com
Ladorido.
Not even Rachel.
Then, the last person left is… ….
Deacon Harrison.
The person I wish was not there the most…….
Surely Harrison… is it.
There was this saying in a famous novel I read when I was living on Earth.
‘Inference’ is the process of eliminating all possibilities one by one.
Eliminate all possibilities and there is only one left.
No matter how incredible that one thing is… That’s the truth.
Harrison, who served this family long before I was born.
He has been a faithful butler of our family for generations since his ancestors.
A deacon who has served our family for a long time and is talented and favored by my parents.
When she was younger than now, she would tell me and Ecclesia stories about the past and even get me books to read.
Kind and… A kind person.
It is difficult to think of him as a spy.
But he was a spy… Called?
Memories of betrayal from my past life that I didn’t want to recall kept swirling around in my head.
A being that feels the furthest from being a spy.
However, such people were usually spies.
I don’t want to believe it, but this is the most likely one at the moment.
Resolution focused on Harrison and examined him.
His appearance, quite different from Rachel and Ladori, was relatively normal.
He was working as usual, giving instructions to employees with a completely expressionless expression.
An expression that makes it hard to feel that your heart is beating like crazy.
At first glance, it looked like normal, but upon closer inspection, I could see that he was sweating slightly.
It’s not sweat because it’s hot…… Cold sweat.
Even though he didn’t look like that, I could tell that he was in a state of extreme tension.
This is what competent spies looked like in their past life.
…… No way, Harrison.
No. Maybe not.
Let’s check it out first.
Because you can check it by using the power of the holy sword.
I quickly walked down the stairs and approached Harrison.
Then I called him.
“”Harrison!””
Someone’s voice overlapped with mine.
Harrison’s name at the same time as me?
The appearance of Ecclesia is visible when you look to the side.
She was staring at me with a surprised expression.
My facial expression will also be the same as hers.
I never thought I would come to Harrison at the same time as her.
Did she think the same way as me?
This is quite unexpected.
