The Butler of the Reverse Harem Is Crazy - The Butler of the Reverse Harem Is Crazy chapter 44

44 – Emperor’s Treasure (3)

“Won’t you give me a refund?”

[Items in remarks can only be returned.]

[Services such as refunds or exchanges are not provided.]

“…”

No refunds, no exchanges.

But if you touch something else,

He was said to be under a terrifying curse called the ‘mortal curse’.

I picked up the magic sword with trembling hands.

ㅡ… … .

Fortunately, the creepy voice from earlier hadn’t been heard.

After fixing the magic sword on the right waist,

I went down to the first floor and came out.

“Did you choose the treasure well?”

The head maid and two old knights greeted me with expectant eyes.

However, my expression was slightly stiff, unlike theirs.

“I made a good choice…”

“What’s your problem?”

“……Hmm? That, that sword……!”

A black sword I hadn’t seen before, tied around my waist.

The knights who saw the sword made a surprised expression.

‘Did I get caught?’

Let’s look at the three people with anxious eyes,

One of the knights stared into my eyes and opened his mouth.

“It’s a really nice black sword! I really envy you.”

“……Yes?”

“A well-proportioned sword body, and the magical power that can be felt even in this city…”

“May I ask what the name of the sword is?”

“I haven’t decided yet…”

“It’s a pity. I hope that the sword will have a name worthy of its cool appearance.”

“Ah, yes…”

thank god.

I didn’t hear you.

Well, it was because I was the first outsider to enter this warehouse since Duke Kaisel.

And besides, they’re just guards in the warehouse,

I bet you’ve never seen the inside.

It is natural not to know.

Unlike the pure white sword that exhaled ‘I am the Holy Sword’ all over the body,

It was because the demonic sword was an ordinary form close to a black sword in terms of appearance.

Breathing out a sigh of relief,

I said to the head maid next to me.

“Maybe I can meet with Your Majesty?”

“Is it related to that sword?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. I’ll try to send a message to His Majesty.”

First of all, you must tell the emperor about this sword.

Just because writing was risky.

‘Still, I’ve chosen a treasure, but it’s a bit of a waste to leave it unused.’

If you are the emperor who claimed to be my back,

I hope you can solve it somehow

A space decorated with antique furniture and expensive artwork.

“Is it okay if I’m alone with you?”

When I asked the emperor sitting across from me,

He answers with a carefree face.

“It’s okay. Even if the grandmaster’s ancestors come, they won’t be able to help me here.”

Somehow, all kinds of security magic circles were drawn in every corner of the room.

In addition, artifacts made to protect the emperor were scattered here and there.

“The moment you try to raise your magic power, breathe life, or express your intention to attack. He is forcibly knocked out.”

“It’s terrifying.”

There are over 50 artifacts that I saw with my own eyes, and hundreds of magic circles drawn in a compression method are engraved.

The Emperor’s safety comes first, but

I don’t know how much money was poured into it.

“by the way…….”

In the place called the emperor’s office,

The owner of the room asked in an interesting tone.

“Leon, did you say you chose the magic sword?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“I don’t know English.”

A look of incomprehension.

If I were the emperor, I would have felt the same way.

Untie the magic sword tied to the right side of your waist,

It was placed on the table between the emperor and me.

Then, the magic sword scatters strange energy around.

“I’m sure I remember being at the far end of the third floor.”

“you’re right.”

“I was wondering what kind of crazy person would choose this sword, but I never dreamed that you would become the master of the sword.”

Emperor Richard shrugged and said.

“…”

It is true that he did things that are incomprehensible to ordinary people.

It’s not another sword, it’s a demonic sword.

“Why did you choose the magic sword?”

The emperor asked me one after another when I was quiet.

okay. Came here,

Let’s proudly accept permission.

“It was the best choice for me.”

“……Is it related to the strange resilience we saw earlier?”

“There is that, but it’s because it also has a means to evade the demonic sword’s other curses.”

“Hoo.”

The emperor’s gaze caught my attention at my answer.

“In Jim’s memory, the demonic sword continuously absorbs the owner’s blood and drives the owner increasingly insane.”

“It will.”

“If you go mad… a great disaster will come upon this country.”

Although he was a calm-speaking emperor,

The meaning contained in it was not.

“Because if the next superhuman goes crazy, the damage won’t be trivial.”

A question and answer that implies whether you are really confident not to go crazy.

“You don’t have to worry about it. Other people may not know, but the curse of the demonic sword doesn’t work on me at all.”

Let’s smile as we answer,

The emperor’s eyes twitch slightly.

“I don’t know if it’s a different matter, but since you brought out the demonic sword, you have to take full responsibility.”

“I know.”

“If you can prove that certainty that you won’t go crazy, you may use the demonic sword freely.”

Proof… … .

“I have a special ability to remove the magic sword’s madness.”

“You have that ability?”

“Yes. It’s hard to tell you the details… but it’s true that all the curses of the demon sword can’t harm me in any way.”

“……It’s amazing. How many more of you do you have such a mysterious ability?”

“I do not know.”

Except for the copy ability of the heavenly sword,

I think I’ve shown you almost everything.

“Anyway, I am confident that I will never be eaten by a demonic sword.”

“If you say it so confidently… it’s okay to believe it once in a while.”

“Honestly, I thought you’d say no.”

When I opened my eyes slightly and asked,

The emperor waved his hand and said.

“Since you have proven your worth in front of Jim, Jim should trust you at least once.”

“And, if you return it as a demonic sword, you will be a liar.”

“Well, it’s called a magic sword, but it looks like a black sword from the outside.”

The emperor put a small smile on his lips.

“So, as long as you don’t reveal that it’s a demonic sword, I won’t mind.”

“Because I’m the one who loses money by revealing it. So don’t worry about that part.”

“It’s fortunate. There are only three people who know that the sword is a demonic sword, so you should be relieved.”

“That’s fortunate.”

If there are three, me and the emperor,

And it must be Duke Kaisel.

He must have known since he entered the Emperor’s warehouse before me.

I’m sure you’ve looked around all three floors like I did.

“In fact, I didn’t even know that holy swords and demonic swords existed until I entered His Majesty’s warehouse.”

“It’s only natural that you don’t know. Jim only found out after becoming emperor.”

Emperor Richard tapped the armrest with his index finger as if lost in thought.

“In the first place, in the history we know, holy swords and demonic swords have rarely appeared.”

“I know it appears quite often in fairy tales and plays, but…”

“There are demon lords and demons. But do you think there is such a thing in this world?”

“…nothing.”

“Then, what is the reason for the existence of holy swords and demonic swords?”

“that…….”

‘Come to think of it.’

There are no demons in this world.

A peaceful world without the demon lord or the demon god mentioned in the description of the holy sword.

That’s why there’s no such thing as a black magician or a necromancer.

However, the holy sword and the demonic sword openly exist.

A situation where something is not right.

Let’s just stare at him with our mouth shut,

Soon I heard the Emperor’s grave voice in my ears.

“…In the past, I ordered research to lift the restrictions of the holy sword and the curse of the demonic sword.”

“Research, you mean?”

“Yes.”

As I lay my body deep inside the sofa,

The emperor puts both hands together and interlocks them.

“My ancestors tried, and my ancestors also tried. That’s because I coveted the power of holy swords and magic swords.”

—-If the secrets of the Holy Sword and the Demonic Sword can be solved, the Empire can become even stronger.

—-If it doesn’t work in my era, in the next era.

—-The emperor of the next era should be able to solve the secret of the holy sword and the demonic sword.

With that feeling in mind, successive emperors of the Rothenberg Empire continued their research on the holy sword and the demonic sword.

“But no matter how much research you do,”

“From which era did the two swords originate,”

“I couldn’t find out who made it using which mineral.”

“Well…….”

“At least what I found out was only a part of the abilities possessed by the holy sword and the demonic sword.”

For a long time, over several generations, he invested an astronomical amount of money to research the holy and demonic swords.

However, there have been no significant results so far.

“Still, there was some success. I was able to grasp some of the hidden history of this world.”

‘Hidden history?’

When I look at you with a puzzled expression,

The emperor closed his eyes and continued.

“Leon, have you ever heard of a demon?”

“I’ve heard of the name. Isn’t that the devil who threatens this world that appears in many fairy tales or something?”

Earlier, I saw that the ‘Hero sealed the Demon God with the Holy Sword’ written on the Holy Sword, but

I don’t know the exact circumstances at the time.

Even in the library of the Duke of Roelheim, where I belonged, there were no books related to demons.

So I pretended not to know and listened to another example.

“I don’t know either.”

The emperor shook his head.

“The Demon King and the Demon God are distinctly different. Few countries have figured out that fact.”

I wonder if you say that

“Since I told Kaizel, there won’t be any problems if I tell you.”

“I won’t spill it anywhere.”

“That’s the way it should be. It’s something the common people wouldn’t benefit from knowing.”

A mature man lifting his closed eyelids.

“This is… a story you’ve never heard before.”

Eventually, a voice came out of the emperor’s mouth,

It breaks the silence and echoes in the air.

“There was a great war in the distant past that is hard to guess.”

“A great war unfolded between humans under the command of God and demons from the other world.”

“It is said that humanity who failed to defeat the pouring demons was driven to the brink of extinction.”

wait, what?

What did the emperor just say?

Humans under God’s command,

Demons from another world?

A war with them almost destroyed mankind?

that… … .

“It’s just like Earth.”

“Well?”

I was embarrassed and stopped talking.

“Oh, no. That’s the wrong word.”

“Is that so? …Anyway, it is said that the one who saved mankind from danger was the hero.”

“Yes.”

“The hero gathered his companions and defeated the demons, the demon king, and the demons who were subordinate to the demon god.”

“……Are demon gods and demon lords different?”

“I thought Jim was the same. But after comparing several old books, I found out that they were different.”

he is worn out in the bosom,

He pulled out a book with a black cover.

As if it were a very precious book, all sorts of preservation magics were put on it.

“In this book, various contents related to the demon king and demon gods are written.”

“It is a valuable book.”

“It’s a very valuable book. Because, it’s not a human thing.”

“……Yes?”

“Perhaps the only one left in this world…”

The emperor put the black book down on the table.

“It must be something belonging to the demons.”

I put my hand on the book the man handed me.

Then, the reverberation of magical power, presumably from the demons, rose up through the palm of my hand.

‘This magic… … .’

It’s not the usual blue magic.

It’s not magic that contains various attributes.

-Go oh oh… … .

Purple magic that holds endless ominous power.

A familiar color that I have experienced somewhere.

“……Robnam.”

okay. This mana is obviously similar to the mana that he radiated.

The day I first met Princess Laura.

While arguing with her, the image of an unknown attacker flashed through my mind.

who poured purple fire on me and the princess,

The memory of cutting off the left arm of a man wearing a robe.

Magical power of the same nature as that bastard’s was covering this black book.

‘… … Did that happen?’

I guess I know a little bit.

around me,

what the hell is going on
