The Munchkin Disciple Wants To Stop Being Obsessed Over - Chapter 117

117 – A Clumsy Lie

Daphne, for some reason she was looking for a child named Kamel, who was a customer of the Armad Company she owned.

She has been requesting Carmel’s transaction history, and she has been asking for Carmel’s location.

Of course, this was a demand that should never be granted. Because the Chamber of Commerce was an organization that prioritized customer security and personal information.

For a merchant, credit is like her life.

A company that loses its credibility loses both customers and funds.

Therefore, Count Armad considered this trust more important than anything else, and he never once gave in to external pressure.

Count Armad was a man so obsessed with trust that he even turned down the request of the former princess who came to him under the pretext of tracking down the rebels.

Not long ago.

Count Armad decided to throw away the trust that he considered so important today.

The risk was great. This was a kind of investment with the Count’s confidence in it.

At this time when signs of unprecedented war are being detected on the continent, an investment is being made to recruit Daphne, who is estimated to be at least a Sword Master, into the human force.

Count Armad spent a huge amount of money and acquired a lot of information.

Camel, she doesn’t know what that kid is doing.

She found out what the child had done at the academy, what situation the child was currently in, and what forces were targeting him.

Count Armad, who heard the story about Carmel, had to believe his own eyes and ears.

At an age that is not even the age of stipulation,

Defeat the Seven Deadly Sins,

They are being targeted by the Chaos Church,

He even had the fate of being a vessel of sin.

This was something that could not be easily believed, even by Count Armad, who had experienced many hardships.

So, I dug into the information in more detail.

The more he doubted, the more certain Count Armad became.

This child has talent and skills that are unprecedented even in the history of the continent.

So he must be made to stand on the side of humanity.

In addition, I had to make sure to include this woman who was sipping her tea in front of me, who claimed to be Carmel’s teacher.

That is why Count Armad handed over Carmel’s information to Daphne, even giving up his trust.

“Thank you. “It must have been a very difficult decision for the owner of the store to make.”

After listening to the whole story, the Count looked at the woman who continued her words with a relaxed expression.

Although she had a pretty appearance, she felt the spirit of a superhuman that she could not dare to approach.

The Count was confident once again.

If this woman stands on the side of humanity, she will never see a terrible ending come to the continent.

“It’s okay. “No matter how much of a merchant I am, it doesn’t mean I have no discernment… I made this decision because I thought I couldn’t miss out on something more important than credit.”

“The eyes of a merchant… hehehe. Yes, since I received help, it would be right for me to give you even a little help. Okay, so what do you want?”

The platinum-haired woman grinned and rested her chin, and as the count felt her strangely dry saliva go down, she slowly began to press her tongue.

Although he was nervous, Count Armad was confident enough.

She said that if she explained things in a long and logical manner, no matter how old this woman was, she would not be able to leave her without being persuaded.

“As I said before, this continent is…”

“Oh, by the way, I am cursed, so I cannot have any influence on beings with demonic energy.”

“I was swept up in bloodshed and war… Huh? Wait, what? “What did you say just now?”

“It is said that a body cannot use even the smallest amount of magic power in front of beings such as demons and monsters.”

“Why? “Your student is chopping up the seven deadly sins like a carrot, so why do you, the teacher, say you can’t do anything?”

“You said you were cursed? “He wasn’t cursed.”

Daphne responded by showing a chain of ink-colored colors entangled in her image with her magic, and Count Armad, who saw that, felt a pull in the back of his neck and had to mumble.

“You bastard…”

“What? That look. “Are you angry?”

“Oh, it’s not like that…”

As the merchant was a merchant, Count Armad immediately managed his expression and became lost in thought.

Although she doesn’t know much about magic, what she said was not a lie when she looked at the woman’s personality that she had figured out so far and the strange energy felt in that inky chain.

In other words, the woman she tried to recruit by spending a huge amount of money and even throwing away her credibility turned out to be a useless woman.

‘No…!’

This is absolutely unacceptable as a merchant.

The Count’s thoughts turned numerous times in a short period of time.

In this situation where she cannot get back her credit and the large amount of money she invested, she wonders what favor she should ask this woman in order to get a little something of her own.

“Ah…!”

Then, the count remembered something and slapped her forehead with a happy expression.

“Daphne. “Can you please stay there until her student graduates?”

The Count who said that looked like he was about to get drunk. I love how my brain came up with such a clever idea even in a dire situation.

‘The only place I can trust right now is Adenia.’

There is no guarantee that only Chaotic Cults or beings with magical energy will reach out to Adenia for evil.

The imperial family is in ruins, the nobles are corrupt and inferior, and other forces that only pursue profit.

If this woman is presumed to be a Sword Master or higher, she should be able to fully protect Adenia, where humanity’s hope is sprouting, from such forces.

So, it was clear that the single decision he had made now was the wisest choice in history that the Armad family had made for humanity, and would be recorded in the continent’s history books and remembered by people for a long time.

In addition to that.

‘Carmel, if you connect that child with Rachel…?’

The Armad family will be able to enjoy an unprecedented revival.

The Count, who had no idea how his daughter was being treated by Carmel, smiled happily and thought about it, and Daphne responded by smiling just like the Count.

“Okay. “I was going to do that anyway.”

****

Even though it has turned into black dust and is scattering in the air, I wonder if I haven’t been able to completely throw away my regrets.

“Dian…”

Envy disappeared, calling Dian’s name until the end.

-Tuk.

Leaving only one black bead falling helplessly to the floor.

[‘Seven Deadly Sins – Jealousy’ has been defeated.]

·

[‘Sinful Thoughts – Jealousy’ has been acquired!]

·

[Level up! Lv has risen to 41!]

I calmly picked up the bead, put it on the sword of good and evil, and immediately opened the characteristics window.

—-

*If all the dishes are broken, you will die. (49/100)

—-

“You bastard…”

When I checked the number 49, I reflexively cursed.

It was worth it. The cost of deceiving the balance as much as possible to use teleportation was a 20 drop compared to before.

“Ha…”

I am fully aware that this is an unavoidable situation.

I know that Dian did not have the courage to withstand Envy’s tricks, and that if I hadn’t deceived the balance, Dian would have been corrupted.

But that doesn’t mean the shame that was lost isn’t worth it, and it doesn’t mean that Dian doesn’t feel resentful for being helpless.

“Cough, cough…!”

In the meantime, Dian, who had fainted, is seen coming to her senses.

“What kind of situation is this?”

As I look at Dian looking around with a puzzled expression, my outstretched palm naturally begins to curl into a circle.

It was natural. If the professor with that stupid expression had been a little better, my lifespan would not have been shortened.

‘Bottom line… No, true education mode on.’

So there was nothing I could do.

In order for me to maintain clear mental health in the future,

If only to instill an unbreakable spirit, which is obviously important to the professor who will teach the cadets.

I had to slap the stupid guy in front of me on the cheek and then beat him up.

With such a firm resolve, I was approaching Dian with great strides.

“Is that what happened in the end…?”

I had to stop in place when I saw Dian’s depressed appearance, staring blankly at the sky with bulging eyes and muttering.

“It went well…”

Dian calmly wiped away the tears that were filling his eyes and lowered his head.

“Ugh…”

Seeing that frustrated look, a deep sigh comes out.

To be honest, I feel like I want to slap him in the face and then shout.

-Come to your senses. Because I sent the twin b*tch who was your fiancé to the rainbow bridge.

Of course, that is how I feel. Since I also have humanity, I had no intention of saying such inhumane words to the man who lost the person he loved right before my eyes.

“Camel…”

Have I finally found myself? Dian called me helplessly.

“It’s not that I don’t know that it’s ugly, but… As human to human, man to man. “Can I ask you one question?”

He asked me a question while biting his lips with difficulty, and I nodded.

“Celetina… No, what was Envy’s last day like?”

This question, which I am asking myself with what little courage I have left, is being asked in a different way.

Celetina, is there anything she left behind that she will never see again?

“She…”

It was very ugly and insignificant. Even all your memories were fabricated.

I was about to say that honestly, but I paused for a moment and thought about it.

Is telling the truth really the right choice?

Suddenly I have that thought.

No matter how fabricated the memory was, Dian’s emotions and actions during that time must have been sincere.

Is there any need to deny and break Dian’s sincerity?

In this situation where the person whose true feelings are true does not exist in this world?

If I do that, what can I achieve?

No. So all I can see are Dian’s depressing days as he was denied the emotions he had his entire life.

After thinking this far, I decided to suppress my displeasure and force a clumsy and clumsy lie to come out of my mouth.

“I was sorry. And I loved you with all my heart.”

“···.”

“So, I hope you don’t cry and just stay happy.”

At my clumsy lie, Dian lowered his head and began to sob quietly.

As I look at that, a question suddenly arises.

What on earth is love that makes even the man called the Grand Wizard shake so much?

“So let’s stop fussing like a child and go back. “I’m so dizzy I’m going to die.”

I pretended not to see Dian crying and grabbed his head.

I didn’t mean to say that, but it really made me dizzy.

‘Oh, that’s right. Rebound.’

They say that a person needs to be beaten to come to his senses.

As expected, that was true. It was only when I felt my body go limp and my eyes close that I realized that I had forgotten to recoil.

My vision is getting blurry. However, I see a forgotten figure approaching in the center.

“You are truly amazing… Junior. Thank you for your hard work.”

It was Malik. Oh yeah. I told you to keep an eye on me in case anything goes wrong.

“···Why are you coming now?”

“I was about to leave, but my junior suddenly appeared. “There was no time to intervene.”

Malik began to support my body, which was about to collapse, and continued speaking with sincere apologies.

“Looking at it, it looks like he was overexerting his power just to use teleportation… For now, just relax and close your eyes.”

“I’m going to do that, but just in case…”

“I have to go on a ‘pilgrimage’ tomorrow, so you really want me to wake you up, right? Do not worry. “I will wake you up even if it means taking off your underwear in front of the women.”

“hahahaha, that’s a bit…”

Maybe it’ll be okay?

Thinking of such useless thoughts, I lost my mind.

****

Dian, who came to his senses, looked curiously at Malik, who was busy moving his hands, and asked.

“Senior, why are you taking that ring with you?”

“Oh, this?”

Malik responded to that puzzled look by taking the ring that was on Camel’s finger into his arms.

“I guess it’s destruction of evidence to survive the upcoming typhoon.”

“Evidence destroyed…?”

“I want to die, but I also want to live.”

After hearing Malik’s vague answer, Dian tilted his head and thought.

I don’t know what he’s saying, but I feel like he’s sincere.
