Chapter 40: Flirting Is Just Everyday Life for Demons

What kind of ridiculous delusion is she talking about?

I’d rather bite my tongue and die than be your lover.

I regretted using Yuri (S) and looked at Ryuryeon, who was very effective, with a sour look.

‘Lover…. What a disgusting thing to say.’

What kind of imagination did she have in her head, and how did Yuri (S) turn it upside down in her head so that the

story could go that way?

Does Yuri (S)’s ability even lower the opponent’s intelligence?

It’s a trait that blurs the opponent’s senses and makes them fall for me, not that kind of trait.

It was a moment when I was seriously curious about Ryuryeon’s head.

‘Maybe there was a hidden trait that I didn’t know about.’

No.

That’s absolutely not true.

Then was there really a hidden ability that I didn’t know about?

Even after thinking about it carefully, there was no such explanation.

Yuri (S).

A trait that can forcibly elicit romantic interest and favor from a woman you meet for the first time. If used well, it’s a

considerable scam-level trait, and at the same time, it can be poison, a double-edged sword.

Because it’s a trait that plays with a woman’s heart.

At least because she’s a woman, I feel… really, really less guilty, but if I had this trait as a man, I would have been

beaten to death by Leticia long ago.

Leticia shouldn’t see this.

Fortunately, Leticia seemed to be busy with other things.

‘I felt the energy of another demon in the academy, so she must be trying to deal with that first.’

So I’m stopping Ryuryeon alone.

By the way, Yuri (S) is really a scam.

It’s just like that.

It might be a trait with a lot of hidden abilities, like the light novel title, ‘I came back to this world and got a trait that

can seduce any woman.’

It works even for a woman who was called the right arm of the previous Demon King.

Eventually, I thought about the trait with a pained expression, and I threw that thought far away in the back of my mind.

That’s not what’s important now.

You really never know what’s going to happen in life.

If I could have overwhelmed that woman with strength, I wouldn’t have used such a skill.

I bit my lip in frustration.

I laughed hollowly at Ryuryeon’s determined face that she would take full responsibility, shook my head as if there

was no answer, and opened my mouth with a face full of contempt and disgust.

“Imagination is free, but it’s unpleasant to be involved with you. Us being lovers, a passing hero would laugh if they heard that.”

Leo would more than laugh.

Lovers with an enemy who tried to kill each other countless times on the battlefield.

He’d roll on the floor laughing.

Looking at me like that, Ryuryeon’s expression was quite serious, as if she had come to some conclusion on her own.

“Indeed. I didn’t think you would tell the truth from the beginning. You’re so thorough that you erase my memories,

so of course you won’t reveal it easily.”

“……No. What the hell are you talking about? I hate demons, you know?”

“I’m the same in despising humans, the weak, and demons who are only half-blooded. But the fact that I embraced

you means that I recognized you as a warrior on that battlefield. So I embraced you… Could it be that the reason you

can’t say it is because it went further than that….”

“Absolutely not. And listen to me!”

I couldn’t stand it and shouted.

What kind of conversation is this?

The conversation is going more and more off track, and I kept a straight face and wiped my face with one hand.

The effect of the trait is too good.

Considering Ryuryeon’s original personality, it seems that the trait of Yuri (S) is certainly better than expected.

The Ryuryeon is feeling the emotion of love and speaking seriously.

I’m seeing a sight I’ll never see in my life thanks to the trait.

By the way, a woman who is relentless to men and women, a lover?

And the lover who erased Ryuryeon’s memory and ran away is me?

What is that, it isn’t some romance fantasy cliché.

A passing hero would really laugh.

Look.

Her subordinate behind her is also shocked.

Your jaw will drop.

I shook my head with a tired face and continued.

“Everything is wrong and not true. Don’t say anything terrible like it’s more than that. We were enemies from

beginning to end, and we were never lovers.”

“In that you erased my memory, if you’re hiding it because I might harm you in the process, it’s okay. The war at that

time was fierce. But it’s okay now. The fact that I embraced you means that I acknowledged you. I apologize for

calling you a half-demon and insulting you earlier.”

“Crazy. What the hell are you talking about? Talking like that, it’s like a northern grand duke… no, that’s not it.

Listen to the demons properly! What did you hear from me so far?! I told you, you and I aren’t lovers?! You, you’re a

stone wall woman who has no intention of dating in the first place!”

“Depending on the situation, white lies are necessary. But I don’t really like lies. Ho. And you seem to know a lot

about me. You’re definitely my lover. So you know me well.”

What the hell are you talking about, you b*tch.

I saw you slaughter dozens of demon soldiers with my own two eyes, saying that they were weak and unnecessary

soldiers on the battlefield, what the hell are you talking about!

This is bad.

Ryuryeon, this b*tch.

She has no intention of listening to me at all.

Even if I keep denying it, Ryuryeon would clearly deny it with a third-rate line that would only appear in old movies.

She doesn’t seem to have any intention of listening to me.

I slapped my forehead with a troubled expression and shouted in frustration.

“No…! Can’t you see your subordinate behind you being shocked? His jaw will drop!”

“That’s none of my business. Rather, it’s a good thing. If his jaw drops like that, he’ll be quiet, so isn’t it irrelevant?

Mouths are unnecessary in battle.”

“Ryu, Ryuryeon-nim?!”

“Shut up. I told you I never gave you the right to speak.”

“Hup…! So, sorry.”

You’re speaking perfectly fine, so why are you b*tching at your subordinate?

At first, I thought he was just a high-ranking demon with no manners, but seeing him playing the role of Ryuryeon’s

subordinate, I only felt sorry for him.

And then someone blocked the middle between me and Ryuryeon.

I frowned at that sight and was about to open my mouth to say something, but the moment I saw the familiar ash-

gray hair, I opened my eyes wide and muttered.

“F*ck.”

Unfortunately, the person who intervened between me and Ryuryeon was Leticia.

I rolled my eyes from side to side and shed cold sweat with a troubled expression.

Did she hear everything?

She doesn’t seem to be in a very good mood, so I think she heard it, but maybe she didn’t.

Leticia just came from the academy by teleportation, so there’s a high probability that she didn’t hear it.

So I don’t need to be afraid.

If I act confidently and consistently that I did nothing wrong, Leticia will be generous and let it go.

It’s not like I cheated, so I can be confident!

I thought so.

“Charlotte.”

“Uh, huh?”

“I came because I was worried because it was a familiar magic power, but did I interrupt? It looked quite fun. Lover?

What the hell are you talking about? Can you explain it to me from the beginning?”

I shed cold sweat at Leticia’s words, who smiled kindly and asked me to explain.

Cold sweat dripped from my forehead—to the floor.

She’s asking me to explain, but it’s an explanation, an excuse, and a threat.

It was a moment when I was about to open my mouth in a hurry in a situation where I seemed to have cheated on my

girlfriend.

Suddenly, Ryuryeon, who saw Leticia intervening in the middle, put her hands on her hips and stood in a crooked

posture, twisted the corners of her mouth and sneered.

“The wise sage of the famous hero party has come. I see that you came here, so you must have already killed my

subordinate who invaded the academy.”

“I killed him. I came because I felt a familiar and unpleasant magic power, and it was you? The demon b*tch who

was always beaten by Damian.”

“Who was beaten?! A wizard of the hero party dares to…!”

“Former hero party wizard. Yeah, so what. You lost, right? You’re making a long excuse when you lost and retreated.

So, won’t you go back quickly? You’re making strange advances to someone else’s woman. I’m quite unpleasant right

now.”

“Ha? Someone else’s woman?”

Ryuryeon glared at me with fierce momentum as if asking if that was true.

I couldn’t say anything and just avoided her gaze.

“…Ha.”

Ryuryeon’s eyes, who looked at me with a look of absurdity, calmed down.

She seems to be thinking deeply about something.

Ryuryeon, who looked at me intently, took her gaze away and looked at the barrier surrounding the academy that

Leticia had unfolded, and put her sword back in its sheath.

“Ryuryeon-nim?”

“We retreat.”

“…Yes…?! But…!”

“It’s nonsense to fight the sage. By this time, the emperor of the empire would have sent knights and wizards, and

there is a threat that our location has been exposed to the Demon King.”

Ryuryeon continued.

“Further fighting is of no benefit to us. In the first place, this attack was a simple warning. It seems wise to retreat at

this point. I feel an unpleasant divine power from afar.”

Ryuryeon muttered that the hero seemed to have smelled it, and twisted her lips at Leticia.

“Now that Damian Radius is gone, it’s worth seeing you begging for love from a woman similar to him, sage.”

“Say what you want.”

“Heh. Well, it doesn’t matter. I take what I want by force. That’s the rule of the demons, so you’d better keep it.”

Otherwise, next time we meet, I’ll snatch you away.

Ryuryeon, who smiled meaningfully at me, left the stunned Leticia behind and leisurely disappeared through the

portal connected to the demon world that her subordinate opened.

She dropped a big bomb.

Like last time with the vampire, is flirting a daily routine for demons…?

I looked at Leticia, who was glaring at me with fierce momentum, and buried my face in my hands.

Why is my life like this?
