The Harem Is an Unforgivable Master - The Harem Is an Unforgivable Master chapter 84
84 – Dark Clouds Over the Imperial Family (2)
Even after Aisha left her room, I sipped the drink she left behind.
The first time I drank it, it was quite strong, but as I got used to it, I began to enjoy its strong taste.
Perhaps it was because I had just spoken to Aisha about her demons, so vividly did I recall the day my grandson was killed.
Seriously… Her daughter and then her grandson could have been lost to the devil if Acade hadn’t prepared for her in advance. From the devil’s point of view, I wondered if aiming for the royal family was supposed to be something like a coming-of-age ceremony.
‘Huen…’
When I thought of the name of my daughter who had left me, my mouth felt bitter, not because of the alcohol, but because of the charred memories.
Because I have already looked back thousands of times, even in my book of memories, which contains hundreds of years of history, only the parts related to Huen are covered with hand marks.
‘Let’s forget.’
It was already a long time ago. I opened the memory bookshelf again where the events of that day that happened to my grandson four years ago were recorded.
As we were leaving the castle, Akade whispered in my ear as I was seeing off with a nerdy smile.
“Be careful, Nanika!”
“What?”
“They like to play tricks when we’re most unguarded.”
Akade made her white smile and waved her hands, hiding herself as she was. Anyway, it was a really annoying laugh.
I know that’s not her original personality from Acade, who is about the same age as me now.
Even so, did she even need to refine her ‘memories of her childhood’ as her main and plant them in her own body?
Perhaps she is trying to pull out all the elements of warmth in the first place in order to stand up to the tricks of demons who play with people’s emotions.
‘It’s time to be careful.’
She made up her mind not to doubt and not to be caught off guard because it was the advice of the High Witch. But she was thinking at least in months,
“Kyaaagh! Your Majesty!”
Did you really think that the careless guy would stick his fangs in as soon as he returned to the imperial castle?
“Ugh, cool! Cool!”
“Yugat!”
As always, the grandson, who was overseeing state affairs in the office, suddenly coughed up blood and collapsed. As if it was exactly waiting for my visit.
“Even when people are awake, they are actually sleeping in their spare time! Poof! You will be eaten.”
I didn’t know that Acade’s words could mean something like this.
Out of my sight, behind my grandson, there was a man standing in a daze as if he was asleep. However, he did not directly harm his grandson.
Since he coughed up blood without any indication, perhaps everyone else there, except me, simply assumed that the grandson had some disease.
But I immediately recognized that this situation was at the hands of the devil.
While everyone was looking after my grandson, I alone held onto the man’s shoulder and whispered softly.
“What the hell are you doing!”
– It hurts~ It hurts~
The black smoke rising slightly from the man’s body swayed left and right as if mocking me. I grabbed the smoke with passion, but it slipped through his fingers.
Like that, the devil mischievously mocked me and disappeared.
Later, I found out that the man possessed by the devil was an agent who had been secretly moving between the four dukes.
‘A demon is hiding in one of the four ducal families.’
We came to that conclusion and agreed to move quietly beneath the surface, leaving the great-grandson in charge of the cleanup.

Me, Yugat, and Earl Peirosis, the three of us, had to secretly destroy the devil’s trick.
However, even if the hand was too short, it was too short. Even though stealth was the basic thing, I couldn’t use a crow, and my grandson and I were in a position where we couldn’t move hastily.
Because of that, Count Peirosis had no choice but to take care of everything.
‘Luckily it was fortunate.’
It gives me goosebumps just thinking about what it would have been like without that. It might have been a situation where the devil opened his eyes and cut his nose.
‘And Count So.’
She thought that when Aisha sent a message that she wanted to come to her academy, she thought the rope of salvation had come down.
To think that the introverted Aisha would voluntarily say that she wanted to come to her island!
Of course, she mobilized all of her manpower and called Aisha to the academy right away. With this, in the event of an emergency, the damage to the demon could be minimized.
She wanted to meet Aisha right away, but of course she couldn’t.
Since it was a fact that only the other archwitch knew that I was acquainted with the Archwitch of the Great Cold, I could have been suspicious.
‘That’s why he’s in a hurry too.’
Even the devil would have never dreamed that the Great Witch of the Cold would come here.
Her When she holds back her dragon, it means that her dragon holds her back.
Isn’t it the devil who was looking at the archwitch in a bad way? It was clear to her that the fact that the Archwitch had come to her islands had put her fire on her gnome’s feet.
That’s why Aisha hastily started the incident when she hadn’t even been a month since she came to the academy.
‘I’m sorry to Count Peirosis.’
This assassination attempt worked in a good way for us.
It has been confirmed that the Assassin is using a replica of the imperial family treasure, and the maker of the replica is the only one in Jedo.
I was finally able to catch the devil’s clue.
Also, it is not unusual for a son who is worried about his father to visit, and it is quite natural for a lover who loves the son to come along.
That’s how the two best fighters in the system succeeded in entering the imperial castle without any suspicion.
You can even have the best power to fight the devil.
‘Is it okay for things to go smoothly like this all of a sudden?’
I desperately controlled my mind so that the ‘carelessness’ that Akade said would not reveal its fangs to us again. However, there is no way for me to do anything about the excitement that spreads subtly.
‘It is the treasure of the empire.’
The Peirosis family are the loyal subjects of the empire and the benefactors of the imperial family.

Marquess after this job? No, even the duchy could be considered. Count Peirosis would refuse, but Count So might be different.
Isn’t he even the man that Aisha, whom I originally thought of as the Duke of Madou, loves?
After the work is done well, I should meet him and talk about various things. How the hell did you seduce that tomboy?
If you offer to tell Aisha about her embarrassing past, she will gladly come.

“That’s why Raka, no, the prince did the cleanup by proxy.”
After listening to the emperor’s story, the oddly misaligned pieces found their place one by one.
This must have been the reason why the marquis appointment ceremony, which was supposed to be a long time ago, was brought forward.
Again, I was the cause of the route’s drastic twist. Heh heh, I’m not too surprised now.
[You have completed the achievement ‘The Root of All Evil’. ]
[ You get a magic bonus stat. ]
You bastard. I don’t want to hear you say that.
“I’m sorry I got you involved. But know that Jim couldn’t help it either.”
I shook my head at the emperor’s apology.
“No. Just saving my father’s life in an ambush is tantamount to receiving a favor that I will never be able to repay.”
The person in front of me is just a “Benefactor who saved my father.” If so, it is a child’s duty to repay him with an appropriate repayment.
“From now on, you have to move. It is only necessary that the duke’s family that carried out the ambush is revealed. For now, the families I suspect are Garatroso and Shamilton.”
“Is it because you reached out to the academy?”
“It will be easier to keep an eye on you if you keep the young lady by your side.”
Actually, I’d like to say ‘the culprit is Garatroso!’ But I’ll refrain from asking how I found out.
Come to think of it, how is Serien doing?
You said you were going back to your hometown, but wouldn’t it be like being attacked by the devil for no reason?

“Oh, brother…”
“Hee hee hee!!”
I couldn’t believe it.
I never imagined that something like this would happen in my family without my knowledge.
The man who is smiling at me right in front of my eyes. My brother-in-law But now it’s not the brother I knew.
He was a man with a strong desire for power and his own ambitions.
That kind of thing was rather a person who matched the color of Karatroso, so I thought that as the head of the family and the head of a family, he was an impeccable person.
I was subtly proud of such a brother.
But… This isn’t it.
“Will you be happy to help me? My cute little brother~”
I didn’t want to see my ugly brother possessed by the devil like this.
The devil, wearing the mask of a brother, reached out to me with a very frivolous laugh.
