Chapter 10: 7.2

Asmun, who has a weak backing, is not yet a match for him.

“You mustn’t catch him yet. You have to be careful.”

When Eden finished her speech shamelessly, Asmun’s expression became even more fierce.

“What are you doing?”

“I am giving you advice.”

“An apprentice priest, who lacks both stamina and magical power, risked her life to give me advice and attracted the attention of a monster?”

Asmun calmly pointed that out and laughed bitterly. It was a face that did not believe Eden’s words at all.

Soon he smiled and whispered with a sullen face,

“If you tell me what you’re trying to do, I’ll spare your life.”

This time, Eden’s heart shivered at the cold voice more than ever.

It was then that Eden remembered the quest given to her.

[【!】Main quest: The person chosen by the player is the 3rd Prince Asmun Deckland. Go to him, offer him an alliance, and survive.]

It literally seemed like the key was to survive.

What is this, she nearly died two times today? But there was no time to complain. Eden took a slow, deep breath and took out what she had prepared.

“Yes, I will be honest.”

“… … .”

“You may not believe it, but I have a revelation.”

As Eden acted with a pitiful yet solemn expression, Asmun’s eyes became even colder. Eden did not back down and continued to speak.

“It was a revelation to make Prince Asmun the emperor.”

She felt as if she had become a pseudo-teacher, but she couldn’t think of anything else other than this method.

And she can’t tell the truth, she can’t say that she entered the game, and she has to make him the emperor to clear it.

“I have already seen through my dreams what happened at this founding day banquet. So I was able to prepare for it. It is also known through revelation that that monster responds to the smell of blood.”

Eden glanced up and raised her bandaged hand.

Almost all monsters reacted to the smell of blood, but Tannir’s reaction was accurate and quick. Asmun was also covered in blood.

The reason she was able to attract Tannir’s attention at once was thanks to the ‘200-year-old monster blood’ that she received as a reward last time.

Of course, the blood that Kiris poured out on Asmun was also rotten blood, but the smell of blood that had been around for 200 years was nothing compared to it, and the monsters were more excited by the blood of their own.

“…….”

Asmun, who had been staring at Eden, suddenly reached out and grabbed her left hand, and raised it. It was her bandaged hand.

Eden was startled by the sudden touch and opened her eyes wide, Asmun pulled her hand and slowly moved his nose towards the blood-soaked bandage.

“……”

Asmun’s unexpected action made her heart pound wildly.

Eden forgot to breathe and saw Asmun looking at her with cold eyes, with his face half buried in the palm of her hand.

She didn’t really want to say it in this situation, but this scene was really… 

Eden swallowed her saliva.

He looks good.

“So this is the priest’s blood?”

Asmun asked indifferently with a look of disbelief. Eden’s stomach churned at the slow question.

This awful stench can never come from a human no matter what excuse it is. Trying to lie will only backfire.

Eden was embarrassed for a moment and spoke frankly.

“No. I knew this was going to happen, so I was prepared.”

“Have you ever seen that monster reacting to the smell of rotten blood?”

“Of course.”

“So, to avoid suspicion, you did not hesitate to hurt yourself by putting a piece of glass in the palm of your hand.”

Asmun timidly pushed Eden away.

Eden sacrificed her palm to disguise it as an accident to avoid Kiris’ suspicion.

But there was one more person to deceive.

It was Asmun.

If she had used a trick of pretending without even sacrificing her own blood, the smart Asmun wouldn’t believe her at all.

It is not unusual for a priest who obeys the will of God to sacrifice themselves to save people. Moreover, especially if it is a faithful priest who has received a revelation.

“Does this palm of your hand help to carry out God’s revelations?”

Eden responded with a dignified voice and roughly pulled out the hand that was still held by Asmun.

Asmun gently let go of her hand, but he did not take his eyes off Eden.

“Now that I have received the revelation, I will do my best to help spread the word. Please allow it.”
