I Became a Darkened Extra

Episode 35 – Visit (2)

35. Visit (2)

The Duke of Hellbridge.

One of the four pillars that support the Latia Empire.

A great family that rules over a vast territory in the western part of the empire.

In the highest-class hospital room located in the center of the Duke of Hellbridge Castle.

Two girls were having a strange argument.

“Aria, isn’t it time to go back?”

Celia said, her eyes curled seductively.

“So, Celia, don’t you want to just leave? “She’s been around longer than me, hasn’t she?”

Unlike her grinning mouth, Aria’s eyes were cold.

“I don’t mind because this is my home? And the patient needs to be stabilized, so it would be difficult to have someone next to him all the time.”

“Do you think the master would be more comfortable with me next to him? Rather, I think it would be more ‘uncomfortable’ for Celia to be here…”

“I’m a patient too, so I guess I’ll have to keep resting here, right? “There just happened to be an empty seat next to me.”

“I can’t believe you would share the same room in this large castle. “That’s really strange.”

“What do you think? It’s ‘our’ company. “You heard what I said earlier.”

Celia’s expression was filled with mystery.

Suddenly.

Aria gritted her teeth as she recalled the story between Leon and Celia.

Because she was strangely similar to when she met Leon in Hevilon.

I wanted to gain the upper hand by telling the story of that time, but…

It was not put into practice.

It wasn’t just because the topic of Hevilon came up.

I didn’t want to share those secrets and precious memories for no reason.

‘Yes, anyway, the one the master trusts the most is me.’

That’s right, Celia and herself have different experiences and memories with Leon.

Aria decided to take her time and eat her heart out.

Meanwhile.

Without even knowing what the two girls were talking about.

Not paying much attention, Leon was skimming through the letter that had been sent to him.

It was mainly written by the cadets of Class B and Class A, one line at a time, and there was also a message sent by Dean Arcion and Instructor Cheren to send their greetings.

‘There’s nothing much to say.’

The most practical thing she did was to send along the missing space pouch.

Leon gathered the letters together, put them away, and then opened his mouth.

“But Aria. “What about the midterm exam?”

“Oh, they said they will combine the final exam and take it at the same time later.”

Leon nodded his head at the content as it was in the original.

It takes time to resolve this matter, and the three teams will be out for a while due to injuries and other reasons.

It is said that the Tower of Illusion will also undergo general maintenance for a while.

Due to various overlapping reasons, it is unreasonable to immediately conduct the midterm exam, which is 3 weeks away.

So, it was completely pushed back.

Celia whistled softly.

“It will be fierce.”

“I guess so.”

Since all grades for the first semester depend on one test, the competition will become even fiercer.

Of course, Class A, where Leon is, could take first place.

“······.”

“······.”

“······.”

The silence that came all of a sudden.

As the conversation faded away, Leon began to feel itchy.

It’s boring to just stay in her bed.

That time when you get annoyed by a body that doesn’t move.

Aria quickly noticed his expression and took action.

“Master, try some of this.”

“Hmm?”

Help!

Leon took Aria’s hand, which suddenly penetrated her mouth, without knowing what it was.

He muttered a few times and then let out an exclamation.

“Oh? “Is it delicious?”

It tastes like a clever mixture of chocolate, marshmallow, and orange flavor.

Leon’s taste cells applauded at the sweetness of the dessert he tasted for the first time.

“Would you like one more?”

“Ugh.”

Thump, thump!

Like throwing a piece of meat to an angry beast.

Aria expertly trains Leon.

“······.”

Celia, who was quietly watching the scene next to her, became sallow.

She went outside with the wind, and in an instant she reappeared holding a large box.

“Leon, try this.”

“······?”

Thumping. Mumbling.

“······!”

Leon looked back at Celia with wide eyes.

The taste of fresh breeze, refreshing greenery, and active life.

It was a fresh stimulus I had experienced for the first time in my life.

After seeing Leon’s reaction, Celia giggled with satisfaction.

“Give me more?”

Nod.

When her hand moving around Leon’s mouth changed to Celia’s.

“······.”

Aria’s smile cracked.

‘···Let’s try it, right?’

She opened the subspace storage box and began to take out the special dessert she had prepared to suit Leon’s taste.

“Master, this is made at the 《 P&L 》 bakery with 70 years of tradition…”

Celia also did not lose out and introduced specialties from the West.

“This is a mixture of planf flowers and mangrod fruits, which can only be found in major forests.”

A hand is held out in front of Leon’s mouth as if competing.

Money melted into gold coins in his maw.

Eventually, it gets into your mouth faster than you can chew it.

The voices explaining the words overlapped to the point of creating a cacophony.

“Master, mine comes first…”

“Leon, my arm is falling off?”

Is that why?

They openly pretend to be popular outside.

Knock, knock.

Knock knock knock.

I didn’t hear the two knocks.

In the end, the visitor opened the door and entered without waiting any longer.

“Leon-.”

And then, after looking inside, they stopped in a standing position.

“······.”

“······.”

Leon is lying down comfortably with his mouth open.

Two pretty girls clinging to both sides of him and serving food.

“······.”

“······.”

Aria and Celia’s bodies froze when they saw the visitor belatedly.

On the other hand.

“Yum yum. Huh, father? Mother?”

Leon greeted them calmly with an expression that asked, “What are you doing here?”

“······.”

“······.”

Locke and Elliot closed their eyes tightly.

* · * *

Leon was quite surprised.

I never thought the Duke and Duchess would come to this place, almost like the other side of the Empire, to the Hellbridge family.

Loke had a puzzled expression.

“Isn’t there a warp gate anyway?”

“But there is such a thing as distance.”

Elliot said, holding Leon’s hand tightly.

“What’s the problem with my son coming back from the dead?”

“······.”

At her kind words and gaze, Leon silenced her for an instant.

Because her maternal love was so unfamiliar and unfamiliar to him.

“Anyway, I saw that he was fine.”

Loke, who heard what happened to Leon, quickly ended the conversation.

Just checking my son’s face for a moment was enough.

He also had a lot of work to do, and since he had already come this far, there was something to discuss with Duke Elbrion.

I didn’t just come here to have fun.

“······It looks like you’re living quite luxuriously.”

Elliot looked at Leon with her strange eyes.

“The Duke here treats us well.”

Leon, who had no idea what she was talking about, just kept talking.

“Hmm, but if you look closely…”

Locke, who was about to get up from her seat, suddenly looked at Leon’s body with a sharp gaze.

‘Could it be that they got caught?’

Leon was very nervous.

The basis of the Cruciv family is a military family.

Lock, the head of such a family, is also a master swordsman.

The acuity of the senses of a master-class warrior is on a different level.

Just by looking at the internal injuries on her body, it was possible to tell that Leon had used the forbidden sword technique.

“······.”

Loke’s brow furrowed slightly.

“······Honey?”

Elliot looked at him and sounded embarrassed.

When Leon came up with about 5 excuses.

“Resist from the beginning of the year until your body gets better.”

Loke, who smelled a faint scent lingering in the room, clicked his tongue and scolded Leon.

“······.”

“Leon, I’m not feeling well, so what should I do if I smoke something like that?”

“hahahaha.”

Leon smiled brightly and waved his hand.

‘I can use it again next time.’

* · * *

The interior of an elegant drawing room with a strong scent of tea.

There was a pen, a stamp, and several documents with seals on the table.

Locke and Ervion are sitting across from each other at the table in the middle.

The two, friends of 20 years, were quite close friends.

“Hmm. So, Locke.”

Dalkak.

Ervion set down her teacup and called out the name of her dear friend with her twinkling eyes.

Looking at his expression, Locke could tell right away that he had finished talking publicly and had moved on to talking privately.

“Both of them have reached the point of marriage.”

“······.”

“We have a lot in common, and my daughter is completely into it.”

“······.”

“I also really like that friend because he has a cool and manly personality. Where are you?”

Loke was silently looking down at the teacup.

“Isn’t it true that neither of us have a fiancé? I don’t think there is a better partner for each other. Huh? “Even when I think about the future of the two families…”

“Erbion.”

Locke raised his gaze and slowly shook his head.

“Let the children decide on such matters.”

“······.”

At the sound of Locke’s deeply subdued voice, Ervion stopped talking excitedly.

“Isn’t marriage one of the few important issues in life? “If we are of the same mind, it will come to us on its own.”

Speaking softly, Ervion realized that he was recalling memories of the past.

Regret, regret, remorse, self-blame, grief.

Numerous painful emotions quickly passed through his eyes.

“······I made a mistake. “I thought I’d forgotten everything.”

Ervion looked apologetic and added tea to Locke’s empty teacup.

Loke answered with a stern tone.

“You shouldn’t forget, and you won’t be able to forget.”

* · * *

Cool and hot energies are mixed and flowing.

Dark red stone forms the floor and walls.

A conference room with reddish light shining outside the window.

Kuzik! Bang! Wow!

Sounds of breaking, crushing, and exploding.

The remains of shattered chairs and tables flew into the air.

“Does this make sense?”

“······.”

There was no intact furniture left around Balkansus.

“Why can’t the strike team catch even one little human like that?”

“······.”

Kryptos’ black eyes became even darker.

“How many people did you send?”

“Five! “One of them was even a high-ranking demon!”

“Hmm… Maybe they should have sent a magic eye bottle at least. “Then you will know the situation.”

A magic eye bottle that can send video records of what it has seen with its own eyes.

Of course, if I had sent them, I would have been able to find out what happened in Siruntel Demon World.

Valcansus never expected that the strike force would fail, so it didn’t even think of such a troublesome thing.

“Damn it!”

Boom!

The chair, which was still intact, turned into powder and shattered.

Kryptos continued speaking with a calm expression.

“Valcansus, as you said… There are some parts I don’t understand.”

“A little?”

Valcansus snorted.

The actions of that black-haired boy were simply bizarre.

First of all, it made no sense that he was able to single-handedly resist the pursuit of the strike force.

The fact that no one returned was extremely strange.

Valcansus muttered with subtle anger.

“This guy definitely has something. Such variables cannot be tolerated at this important time. He’s the one who will mess things up in some way later. “He has already had some success.”

“······.”

After thinking for a moment, Kryptos said, clasping his white, slender fingers together.

“If it bothers you that much… I’ll take care of that person myself.”

“······Are you trying to use those ‘bugs’?”

Valcansus made a strange expression as he remembered what he had done to Middle-earth.

This is because I have always thought it was a useless thing.

“Okay. “They are the best movers in the empire right now.”

Kryptos’ voice faded, and his body slowly turned into smoke.

“These are useful things.”
