Chapter 11 The annoying guy "Won't come back, right?"...
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Opera, who was responsible for everything in the castle, heard the doorbell just after she finished cleaning the kitchen.
Don't want to open the door.
If Iruma hadn't been waiting for the scheduled guest for a long time.
Opera would definitely pretend not to hear it.
After opening the door, the other party brought a gift. Opera took it expressionlessly and decided to throw it away after she left.
The guest simply greeted Sullivan and left with Iruma.
Opera, who was dedicated and responsible, followed Sullivan, who was following him stealthily.
Lost him.
"Damn space magic, Opera. Where did Iruma say they were going?"
In the dessert shop that has been popular in the demon world recently, looking at Iruma who has tasted all the desserts and ice creams in the store, Avida began to doubt whether he was human.
The glutton of the bottomless pit was shocked after seeing it several times, "Keep it up, with this appetite, no one will ever believe you are human."
This recently-risen dessert shop is filled with demons.
Teacher Avida's words made Iruma puff up his lips and couldn't swallow them. He looked around hurriedly to see if any demon had heard what he had just said.
Afraid that the child might choke, Avida quickly told him to continue eating. "Don't worry, I've set up a top-tier anti-eavesdropping magic circle around us."
After hearing this, Iruma, who had great faith in Ivida's magic skills, felt relieved.
Teacher Avida's magic to hinder identification is also very powerful. When he looks in the mirror, his face has not changed at all, but no one can discover his identity.
Because of the Walter Park incident, Iruma is a big celebrity in the demon world.
He swallowed the last bite of cake and took a sip of his drink. After calming down from the shock, he remembered the important matter and asked, "Teacher Avida, what do you want to tell me?"
The air in the dessert shop was filled with a fresh and sweet aroma. Iruma, whose sugar content had been satisfied, was surrounded by such a smell and had an illusion of happiness.
"Was the amusement park dangerous that day?"
"It's okay, because everyone is here." After hearing Teacher Ivida's question, Iruma couldn't help but recall the annoying and dangerous situation at that time. He was actually a little scared.
He didn't feel it at the time, but if he thought about it again, the fear would become concrete.
Iruma didn't want to think about it too much. What if he really never saw everyone again?
Ivda held Iruma's hands, which were trembling slightly from recalling the scene, and asked abruptly,
"You really don't want to go back to the human world?
Isn't the demon world dangerous for humans?
Do you understand that your ring can't always save you?
The synthetic monster encountered this time is not the most terrifying existence.
Do you really have the confidence to defeat a being more powerful than it?"
Iruma, feeling happy after filling his stomach and satisfying his taste buds, was confused by this series of questions. "I..."
Iruma wanted to answer, but he didn't know what to say.
Iveta didn't give him a chance to organize his words and continued to ask, "You haven't encountered a truly terrifying demon that eats people, have you?
You know, not all demons are like the ones in your class."
When Iruma heard this, he suddenly looked up at the person who asked the question.
His reaction, Avida easily found the breakthrough point and approached step by step.
"Do you really have the confidence to tell your friends the secret that you are human?"
"You must have had a hard time in the human world," Iveda stroked Iruma's head, her tone softened, no longer as aggressive as before, "Although it is undeniable that some humans are worse than demons, there are also good people. If you want to go back, I will introduce them to you.
Let’s start over in the human world.”
Iruma lowered his head, as if lost in struggling thought.
"Family, friends, I will let you have what you want in the human world. Why do you have to stay in the dangerous demon world?" Avida gave the last booster shot.
It was Iveda's last sentence that woke Iruma up. He raised his head again, his eyes firm as he said loudly, "It's different. Grandpa, Opera, Asmodeus, Clara, and the other classmates are all irreplaceable!
I want to stay in the demon world!"
As soon as Iruma finished speaking, Sullivan rushed out, hugged Iruma, and cried with tears in his eyes, "Grandpa is reluctant to let Iruma go~"
Opera was beside her, catching Sullivan's tears with a bucket, but her ears perked up with joy.
Ten minutes ago, Iveda discovered that Sullivan and the others were over there, secretly trying to break her own barrier. When he was about to succeed, Iveda didn't want them to experience this sense of accomplishment, so she let them in directly.
She had been enduring for a long time. Two high-level demons wearing simple obstacle-detecting glasses moved closer and closer without any concealment, almost wanting to stick directly to her desk.
Now I am still staging a family drama here. Am I a villain who destroys other people's happy families?
Avida chewed the pearls in her milk tea and looked at the dramatic Sullivan with disdain.
"Don't even think about separating me and Iruma!" Is this even happening?
Sullivan might have been acting, but Iruma was genuinely sorry for the kind teacher, sobbing, "Teacher Aveda, I'm sorry, I'm not..."
"I won't force you." Aveda wasn't good at dealing with this kind of situation. "Don't cry. Do you want to try this store's hidden gem?"
Finally, Iruma carried a large pile of desserts, took Grandpa Sullivan and Opera home happily together.
"Now, it's time for us to have a good chat, Avida Kendava."
Inside the castle, late at night when Iruma had already fallen into a sweet dream, Sullivan finally waited for the promised guest.
The huge study was only illuminated by a beam of side light, and Sullivan's entire body was almost in shadow.
Iveta, who got a headache just hearing the name, asked, "Is it necessary to call me by my full name to show my seriousness and make me nervous?"
"You're not very nervous either."
Sullivan, with his full aura, saw that Ivetta was not intimidated at all, and she even turned on the light switch herself.
The room finally became bright, and Aveda felt her eyesight improved. She took a sip of the tea that Opera brought her and frowned. It was extremely bitter, even the fragrance of the tea was covered by the bitterness.
"Can I ask for a different drink?" Unable to accept it, she asked Opera, who had not yet left.
Opera, who put away the tray, refused, "This is not a restaurant."
"A good host will meet the reasonable requests of his guests." Sullivan looked at Opera and signaled him that she could change if she wanted.
Opera obediently picked up the tea set and left.
Iveta guessed from the look in his eyes as he collected the teacup, "He won't be back, right?"
"How could that be? Opera is not such a demon."
Sullivan couldn't actually guarantee that, after all, his tableware had been hidden by Opera before.
Fifteen minutes passed.
Aveda and Sullivan, who were still waiting, stared at each other.
"Let's get to the point," Sullivan said, crossing his arms and leaning on the table. He looked at Aveda with a sharp gaze, "What is your purpose?"
"Then what is your purpose? Kidnapping a human to be your grandson, you don't want to enjoy family happiness in your old age, do you?"
Iveta noticed that Sullivan's shadow on the wall was different from hers, and the shadow had huge devil horns on its head.
"Can't a demon just want a cute grandson?"
"Because you wanted it, you happened to meet a pair of parents who would sell their child? And the child who signed the contract happened to have a tragic life story?"
Aveda looked Sullivan straight in the eye and gave a qualitative assessment, "As expected of one of the Three Heroes, despicable."
If Suzuki Iruma had lived in a happy family since childhood, with good parents and close friends, would he still refuse to return to the human world?
Of course, Sullivan understood the simple subtext. "Is this why you want to help Iruma? You're such a kind demon. You're not often seen in the demon world."
"If you want to give me an award, I won't refuse." Iveda didn't expect to be able to trick such a cunning devil. It would be better to lay out her true demands and explain them clearly. "Don't waste your time. Anyway, you won't tell me what your purpose is, so don't even think about getting any information from me.
Let's just agree that you won't harm this human, right?"
"Iruma is my precious grandson! I will never allow any demon to harm him."
"Don't say it as if you have no selfish motives."
Avida doesn't even trust humans, so naturally she wouldn't completely believe that Sullivan is a good devil grandfather who cares about his human grandson.
"I'm also curious, why do you want to help my grandson?"
Sullivan had thoroughly researched Aveda when she applied for Babirus. The rumored Devil A wasn't a title she got for nothing.
"Because, sometimes, I also have some of the qualities of a true hero."
If fate is manipulated by the powerful, even if the ending is perfect, is it a good thing?
Avida felt a little regretful. If she had observed more carefully and discovered earlier that Suzuki Iruma was a human, and proposed it earlier, would it have been better?
"Do you think it would be better if Iruma agreed to go back?"
Avida looked at Sullivan who asked this question. She didn't know if it was because the light in the space was too bright, but the huge shadow just now shrank a little and became a little dimmer.
"Not necessarily," Avida hesitated for a moment, but still didn't lie, "I can't be sure that the new human family and friends will be... more suitable." She didn't want to say who the comparison object was, so she omitted it.
But even though she omitted the specific target, the words she said sounded like an affirmation of Sullivan and the others. She quickly added, "I mean, if you really treat him as your own grandson."
"In consideration of your compliment, I won't report you to the Demonic Gate Agency for being too involved in the human world." Sullivan's voice became cheerful, and the shadow of the demon horns on the wall became vivid.
"Are you really clean?" Avida was speechless and too lazy to argue with him.
How could he, a man who signed a contract with a human, brought a human into the demon world, and even made a demon of his grandson, have the nerve to say he would report her? "Does the guard dog of the Demonic Gate Office know that you turned his brother into a human familiar?"
Afraid of thinking about this in the middle of the night, Avida, who was so angry that she couldn't sleep, successfully fought back on the spot!
"That was an accident. You can't tell him, or Iruma will be killed by him." Sullivan, one of the three heroes of the demon world, is confident.
Of course, he also knew that Aveda would definitely not tell.
Outside the window, the silhouette of a nocturnal flying monster flew by quickly, just as Iveda wanted to go home and sleep. Staying up late, even just playing with her phone, was more energetic than doing serious work.
The person she was negotiating with late at night wasn't even a handsome guy, so she couldn't be careless. Aveda chose to make a quick decision.
When the clock reached a new number and Iveda was about to say goodbye, Opera finally pushed the door open and walked in, holding the long-awaited drink on a tray in her hand.
"It's a bit late to serve it to me now." Iveda, who had been relying on imagining that the big devil might suddenly attack her to stay focused, was now calm when she saw the refreshing drink.
She just wanted to go back and have an intimate meeting with the soft big bed.
"I just bought it." Opera, who was expressionless even when lying, put down the tray and held the door for Aveda when she reached the gate. "Please be careful on your way."
The attitude changed too quickly. Avida looked at Opera's ears. The triangular shape resembled a cat. Since she was a cat-shaped demon, her mood was unpredictable and changeable, right?
Opera, who was being stared at, slammed the door shut, feeling unhappy about the gaze.
