Chapter 49: The Brave Man Who Refuses to Retreat "Why do you ask me to...
As a senior demon teacher of Babirus, Kaluyeger has seen all kinds of ways of admitting mistakes among the troublesome students over the years. Iveda really can't think of the best way to deceive them.
After all, she wasn't a brave warrior who was good at apologizing.
"Whether you will have a wonderful night tonight," Iveda asked the question that concerned her most at the moment, "does it depend on my performance later?"
Avida understood Kaluyege's noncommittal attitude and weighed whether her beauty was worth lowering her head. Kaluyege was indeed a feast for the eyes under the moonlight.
"I shouldn't have taken advantage of the chaos to provide offensive objects to an angry student just because I was dissatisfied with Mr. Dali's random assignments, and then tried to get him drunk at a party and took funny photos, intending to send them to a group or print them out to threaten him."
"When will you provide the attack items?" After hearing the confession of a crime from a junior whom he had personally coached, Kaluyege felt that he had drunk too much at the party and his stomach began to hurt.
"Do you want some stomach remedy?" Iveda handed the stomach remedy, kindly provided by Teacher Balam, to her instructor. The last time she used it was in Kaluyegg, when Senior Opera asked her why Narnia would recommend a dangerous person to teach at Babirus.
According to Mr. Balam's previous oral account, Kaluyeg would suffer from stomachache whenever he was under a lot of stress.
Avida understands the inevitable occupational problems of working devils.
She also attentively handed over a glass of water, trying to minimize the sense that she was the source of the other person's stomachache.
"I promise, there won't be a next time."
Kaluyegg could still tell that Iveda's tone and expression were serious. He believed there wouldn't be a next time, but he also grasped the key point that was overlooked in her attitude. "You don't feel sorry at all, do you?"
"You know, demons are born with a terrible nature. They can't accept temporary division of labor."
As Iveda finished speaking, she heard Kaluyeger call out her full name, followed by a serious, "We need to talk."
Now, the hero can be sure that his wonderful night with the beautiful devil is ruined.
At the Kaluyeg mansion in the northeastern suburbs of Babirus, on the sofa where the guard dog used to receive guests, Iveda raised her hand. "Can I have a glass of water? Juice would be even better."
Avida got a glass of apple juice as she wished. Just as she picked up the cup to drink, she saw Kaluyeger with a serious face across from her through the cup. The last time she saw him with such a serious look was when she was being interviewed by the watchdog as a new teacher.
The atmosphere wasn't one of breakup. Avida swallowed the cold juice, figuring that if she didn't give a good answer later, it would be one of breakup.
This is also bad.
"So, what are we going to talk about?" Aveda asked as she put the juice glass back on the coaster.
"I think you still remember your answer to the question about why you applied for the position at Babirus when you first started working."
"Work five days a week and have two days off, six insurances and one housing fund, and generous benefits."
"With your resume, you can definitely get any other well-paid job in the demon world," Kaluyeger said. He wasn't referring to the abbreviated version of the resume Iveda had submitted, but rather to the actual past based on Babirus's investigation. "The job would be much easier than the current one."
"But the holidays will be shorter." Although the Demon School does not have winter and summer vacations, the holidays are comparable in length to those of the winter and summer vacations.
"So, what is your real purpose for coming to Babirus?"
No, why didn't he listen to my sophistry at all? He just laid the groundwork for a few sentences and then started straight away. Thinking of this, Avida didn't want to look into Kaluyege's eyes.
To be more precise, after she couldn't look Kaluyege in the eye, she continued to lie in a way that was true but omitted the key points.
But honestly, to the watchdog who guessed that Iruma was human but chose to ignore it, I just let him become a demon king and then defeat him?
Aveda couldn't even imagine that scene.
In other words, the choice before you now is between love and freedom?
Realizing this, Avida was unable to make a quick choice and abandon the obstacles on the way to completing the task as decisively as before.
Falling in love with a demon that suits one's taste is a way for the hero to relieve stress when the task seems to be far from being completed.
"Oh my God," Kaluyeger, who was still waiting for Iveta's answer, cried out in surprise, "I really like you."
Hmm? This wasn't the answer Kaluyeger had expected. Before he could even process how to respond to it, he heard Aveda's next response, a sudden change of tone.
"That's not fair," Kaluyegg heard Iveda say, but he didn't understand what she meant.
Fortunately, the person who spoke did not ask him to answer immediately. "If you want my secret, you must show that your feelings for me are of the same depth."
This was not the first time that Avida realized that Kaluyege was special to her, but feelings came second to reason.
"We're in such a committed relationship, why are you questioning me like a Babirus guard dog?" Iveda, no longer avoiding Kaluyeger's gaze, crossed her arms and stared at him. "You don't completely trust me, and this also shows that in your heart, I'm ranked behind your career choice."
"In that case, why do you ask me to trust you completely and be honest with you?"
