What the Hero Wanted Was Me - Chapter 27
Chapter 27
Chapter 27.
“Should I break this…”
Sera wondered whether to break the lock or find the key and open it the normal way.
Let’s say you are looking for a key. Looking for a key that might be in this room…? What if Lenny, who went to see Eren, comes back?
‘Sera-sama is the same as Shiana.’
“I can’t be treated like that.”
Imagining Lenny with a contemptuous expression on her face, Sera gave up on finding the key and chose to break the lock.
“You just need to fix it.”
Since there was such a thing as restoration magic, Sera thought of fixing it after breaking the lock. Magic was a convenient existence.
‘Become heavy.’
Sera used her specialty, gravity magic, on his locks. The lock trembled, and force was being transmitted downwards by gravity. Gravity was getting stronger, so the lock couldn’t withstand that force.
ㅡ click.
The lock couldn’t withstand the force and the upper part was mercilessly broken. Sera’s gravity magic couldn’t withstand even the demon king, so at least one lock was simple.
“What is the butler hiding?”
ㅡ Drrureuk.
There wasn’t anything particularly unusual in the drawer. It was just a butler’s normal drawer, with only one notebook and money in it.
Sarah left the money there, took out a notebook beside her, and set it down on the desk.
“Is it a diary?”
Recognizing that Lenny has a girlish side, Sarah feels cute towards Lenny and opens the notebook.
“What is this…”
In the notebook, the writing was written in a language that could not be read at all.
I had no idea what Lenny had written, but Sarah remembered seeing these words somewhere.
‘Sera, do you know what these letters are?’
Since it was the first time I had seen the letters written at the end of the letter that Eren usually receives orders from, I told Eren that I didn’t know.
“She was the only one who knew.”
That Lenny is a person who reads the future and is a person who secretly helped us.
In Sera’s head, the puzzle came together. The reason why I was embarrassed from the beginning. Lenny knew everything. She knew that she was a miserable being without feelings.
“Did you act that way, knowing that?”
An unpleasant gaze directed at oneself. Look borderline. All because I know that I have no feelings.
If you knew, you would rescue me from the dark.
If you knew the future and knew the past, you would rather hug me.
You tell me that you are just like everyone else.
Sarah was well aware that even if Lennie knew her past and future, she was not obligated to act like that, but her feelings of loving Lennie made her feel sad.
“How far does the goddess make me miserable?”
Sera, who doesn’t believe in goddesses, hated the goddess today.
•••
Unlike Sera in Lenny’s room, Eren’s room reverberated with quiet anger.
“Sera..Sera, that b*tch..!”
Eren expressing her feelings of anger at Sera who insulted her, she was very resentful that she had been deceived. She remains unapologetic to Arya, who was hit by a stone on the way.
Eren wanted to leave her room to express this feeling of anger to Sera.
“Eren, where are you going?”
—-He stopped.
In fact, Eren’s true intentions, whose purpose was to run away from Lenny out of embarrassment, were easily discovered.
“What did I do while I was sleeping?”
Since not only Siana but also Eren were the culprits, I was shocked and had to apologize. I had already been vaccinated with Cyana, so it was less shocking than losing the first one, but I had to finish it.
“That… That is of course a lie..! Sir, did I?”
Go out with confidence after making a mistake. That’s not what I taught Eren.
“What should I do when I do something wrong?”
“…Ask for forgiveness and show an apology..”
She perfectly remembers what she wrote in her letter from six years ago. If she knows, don’t make the wrong thing, don’t do it in the first place, I’ll have to add it, she said.
“It’s your fault for doing that, a very big mistake. You know that, right?”
“Yes.. Sir..”
I didn’t come to Eren to create a situation like this, but somehow she ended up admonishing me, so I decided to go all the way.
“I have suffered tremendous psychological damage and lost trust in you as a result of the incident.”
“Loss of trust…?”
“Yes, the trust we have built.”
Seeing me say that the trust built up over the past 8 years has disappeared, Eren said that she looked like she was about to cry at any moment, so she decided to get to the point.
“Eren, there is only one way to restore trust.”
“What is it..?”
Eren was expecting me to say it as if a beam of light had descended from the sky. I will take this opportunity to remove my shackles.
“Tear that butler contract.”
Unfair contracts had to be eliminated. As long as I had that contract, I couldn’t be free, and I had to work at the mansion for two years without pay, so I had to fix it this time.
“That won’t work!”
Eren guessed that if her contract was lost, she would leave the Empire, and even if her trust with Lenny was broken, she had no intention of breaking the contract.
“Even if trust with me is broken?”
Eren’s answer was the same as she pondered for a while. She showed a firm determination that she would never break the butler contract.
“No..No way..!”
It must have been greed that he tried to gain freedom right away. Then, unfortunately, we have no choice but to amend the contents of the contract.
When asked to amend the contents of the contract, Eren readily replied. She, of course, jumped at the fact that she would give her a little date in the contract, but she quickly calmed down as she realized her mistake.
The contents of the amended contract were as follows. I work for money, have a holiday once every 3 days, the contract period that was 2 years is 1 year, and the security system in my room is strengthened.
She didn’t even ask the others, Eren amended her contract. It was an action she could have taken because she was the decision maker for her party.
“…Are you forgetting about it now, sir?”
“So, you sucked my fingers and touched my breasts while I was sleeping…”
“I heard you forgot!!”
I came out of her room, teasing the screaming Eren with her tears hanging on. Having been away from this world and having gone through hellish times, I was confident in my mentality to the point of joking about things like this.
After revising the contract and forgiving Eren, I did nothing while enjoying my vacation on the last day. My body itched, but since today was the last day, I could bear it.
•••
After dinner, I entered the room and was reading a book.
I couldn’t stay still, so I went to the library in the mansion and pulled out a book, and the book had the name ‘The Hero and the Demon King’.
The contents of the book were as follows. It was a mediocre novel about a hero who struggles for years before arriving at the demon king’s castle and having a final battle.
Still, what was worth reading was the relationship between the hero and the demon king.
The Demon King knew everything about what the hero had gone through while coming here. It was to acknowledge him because he knew how the hero had suffered for several years.
‘It’s been hard, hero.’
These were the words of the demon king who was stabbed to death by the warrior’s holy sword. It was strange that the Demon King respected him because he knew how the hero had suffered.
‘How did the demon king of this world die?’
Due to my coach, it was expected that the Demon King, who had not properly recovered his power shortly after being resurrected, would be killed. It’s because it killed a lot faster than the original. As I was thinking about the demon king, I heard a knock on my door.
ㅡ Smart.
“…Come in.”
ㅡKikiiik..
From noble mtl dot com
“Excuse me.”
Sarah said in a weak voice as she entered my room. With a somewhat depressed look. Are you mad at Eren? She told her that she was scolded, but it was a moment when she questioned her because Sera was not a great person to kill her spirit.
Sarah entered the room, closed the door, and just stared sadly at me with her purple eyes. What did I do wrong?
“Sarah, did I do anything wrong?”
She didn’t particularly sting, but her eyes were demanding something from me, so she guessed it and asked Sarah. It was half correct.
“It’s not… No. The butler hasn’t done anything wrong. It’s all my fault.”
Sarah then went back to her room and thought about the fact that Lenny knew about her past and future.
It was Lenny who ordered Eren to save her in her tower, and it was Lenny who awakened her feelings to herself, and it was Lenny who made her live.
Sarah rationally thought that she should only have her heart left to thank Lenny.
‘But why…’
You didn’t reach out to me even though you knew me..?
In her heart, there was a feeling of sadness and betrayal, and Sarah hated herself like this.
She said that if she felt this kind of emotion, she didn’t need it.
“I know. You can see the future.”
Lenny couldn’t even say no to Sarah’s words, and she couldn’t hide her surprised expression.
“..You know..?”
“Yes, I know everything. That you sent letters to Eren, that you led us, that you know about my past.”
Leni noticed why Sarah was depressed. Sarah’s past. Knowing that, what I did was not talking to you, avoiding the seat, and being openly vigilant. The actions that he had done because he knew the future caused Sera to misunderstand. This is a big deal..
“Did you hate me so much..?”
I just don’t have any feelings…?
“I don’t want to live like this either…”
I just wanted to hear one word.
Something was dripping from Sera’s purple eyes. It wasn’t for Sera herself, it was for her Lenny.
“Please hug me…”
Sarah’s tears continued for a long time, and she continued to stand there, wiping away the flowing tears.
“Sera..? Are you okay..?”
I was at a loss to leave her shedding her tears over and over again. Rather than being discovered that he was her supporter, the priority was to stop Sera’s tears, who were afraid of running out of control.
‘Ah…Can I just hug you…?’
I hugged the crying Sera and stroked her hair. Arya soothed Sera by using her memories to stop crying.
“You don’t hate me, do you?”
“Why would I hate you…”
The misunderstanding Sarah was having was something else. I was wary of her not because I saw her in her past, but because I knew her future. Sera knew of her own miserable past, so I thought I was avoiding it.
“Then…You love me…?”
“Hmm..”
To put it bluntly, it was an intermediate stage. In the first place, she hadn’t talked to Sarah, who was obsessed with me and longed for her love, so I couldn’t hear the feeling of love.
Sarah’s head, not knowing what Lenny was thinking, turned into a happy circuit.
‘Doesn’t dislike mean love?’
It was Lenny’s fault for giving an ambiguous answer. Lenny did not know that most psychopaths who do not have emotions are people with extreme dichotomy.
Black and white logic.
For Sera, who lost her emotions, it was the way of thinking she had lived her whole life and was the absolute standard.
I hate it, I love it.
She doesn’t hate herself, so Sera thought Lenny loved her, and she showed it by her actions.
“Huh..?”
Lenny couldn’t stop the weight of Sera she was carrying from shifting in front of her, so she collapsed onto her bed while holding Sera in her arms.
“I love you, right?”
“Ah..N..Ugh..!”
Lenny’s mouth to say no was blocked by Sarah’s pink lips.
“I love you too… Butler…”
Sarah, who climbed on my back, parted her lips and said. Look at me and say i love you
‘I don’t love…’
While I was thinking that, I felt a strange excitement in mine. He resented the owner of his body who was faithful to his instincts.
‘You’re so pretty, are you going to quit?’
Instinct said that and seduced me.
Purple hair down to her shoulders. The teardrop next to the purple eye. Seeing her up close, she was a level of beauty that was a waste to me.
‘…Damn it.’
Her body, Lenny, was more about reason than instinct, so Sarah and I tonight. We loved each other more than anyone else.

“Hey, sorry…”
Elfs with good ears couldn’t sleep because of their noise, and the pillow was wet with tears.
