Chapter 6: 6

I was awakened by the scream.

‘Oh, no, is there a real assassin?’

Come to think of it, there weren’t one or two guys who wanted to get rid of Everia.

‘Did Catherine’s fish send you?’

It was convincing.

Some of them cut off the timber trade because they didn’t want to see Everia, an others might send assassins to get rid of me.

‘I think it’s Luke.’

Sending an assassin would not be difficult for the head of the information guild that dominates the back world.

I rose slowly to that conclusion.

I didn’t feel particularly threatened.

‘The Wizard of the Blue Flames is my pet dog. What am I worried about? All I have to do is make a wish to save my life.’

I slipped out of the bed and headed towards the drawing room with my feet.

Harry was already in the drawing room, growling fiercely against someone.

The problem was that Harry’s flustered opponent’s face was very familiar.

‘……it’s Emma?’

“Hey, I’ll give you this. So be quiet.”

Emma shook and held the chicken to Harry.

She know that my room had a dog, so she must have prepared it beforehand.

Harry stopped growling and looked at the chicken.

‘If Harry was a real dog, that would be a pretty effective diversion.’

Sadly, however, he was a demon pretending to be an individual.

‘Of course, he will not fall for the chicken…’

After a moment, Harry took and ate the chicken.

“Are you just falling for the chicken?”

I opened my mouth in dismay.

[Harry, are you giving in because of a chicken?]

[I haven’t eaten since you called me, who would get hungry at this point?]

[And you eat chicken, at this point?]

[Who wants to work harder?]

[I didn’t know that the demon ate three meals a day,]

[Good thing you know now. You should take notes.]

Harry was absorbed in eating chicken instead of listening to my chatter.

I was about to get hungry, watching him eat the meat so deliciously.

“That’s a relief. You eat well.”

While Harry and I were squabbling, Emma breathed a sigh of relief and murmured softly,

Soon Emma began to move as if she was sure Harry wouldn’t make a fuss.

But it wasn’t my room that she was headed for.

Emma walked toward the fireplace on the other side of the drawing room. After watching the blazing fire for a moment, she bit her lips and lowered herself with a grim face.

I looked at the lamp in Emma’s hand and found out what she was trying to do.

‘Are you taking the fire?’

When she carefully moved the fire in the fireplace to the candle of the lamp, I thought I was right.

‘Harry made a big fuss and I was nervous for nothing.’

The tension was lifted in an instant. I went towards to Emma with a big smile.

‘I’ll ask for a simple snack.’

I was so shocked that I ran out of bed and smelled a grilled chicken that made me hungry,

“Emma.”

“Caaaaaaaaaaaah!”

As soon as I called Emma, a tremendous scream came from her mouth.

“Ahh!”

“Ahhhhhhhhhh! What’s all of a sudden!”

Scream continued in my startled mouth, but at the same time, a voice buried my scream.

There was only one person here who could make a voice like that.

I turned my head and looked at Harry. He dropped his chicken and when his eyes met mine, he became more embarrassed than surprised.

[Harry, did you say “Ahh” or “What’s all of a sudden” to an individual?] 

[tn: in koren, Harry used a startled expression that was translated to ‘ahh’ and ‘suddenly’.]

Harry avoided my eyes, knowing he had made a mistake.

[……I was surprised, too. It was inevitable. And you screamed, too!]

[I’m a human being, and Harry’s a demon. A demon shouldn’t do that.]

[I think there’s a strange prejudice about demons. Except for being super strong and cool, the demon is not much different from the humans!]

[Don’t brag about yourself in this situation. ]

I looked at Emma with a deep sigh.

Emma sat on the floor with her eyes wide open. She had a completely suprised face.

She must have been surprised to hear Harry’s voice.

‘You have a talking animal. You look like a witch.’

I stared at Harry in dismay.

[How are we going to handle this?]

[Well, let’s say it’s your voice.]

[Would she believe that?]

[Then shall I just kill her? That’s the easiest way. You keep the secret, I get the pleasure. How about it?]

His eyes glistened and the way he spoke were filled with emotion.

[ Stop talking nonsense.]

I clicked my tongue inside and ignored Harry.

As expected, Harry was not helpful at all.

‘Is this all up to me again?’

“Emma.”

As soon as Emma’s name was called out, she was suprised and flung herself flat on the floor.

“Fo, fo, fo, forgive me!”

“Excuse me?”

I squinted, not understanding.

In this situation, why is Emma so nervous and asking for forgiveness?

‘I’m sorry to hear that strange voice, is that it?’

Emma lowered her head in a more desperate voice while I had no idea what was going on.

“I’m sorry! Indeed, I am guilty enough to die!”

‘Huh, what are you guilty of……?’

“That’s not the case. The situation was so desperate that the temptation was too intense. Please take care of it. I will never steal again.”
