The Eternal Debauchery's

real or illusory ll

After those words, the memories ended.

A strange silence emerged between us. I saw how Louise's expression went from astonished to angry, sad, and betrayed. Finally, he put on a bitter smile.

“I can't believe..”

“Yeah, you saw it. The assassins are obviously aiming at all of you. I'm sure you have a method to confirm whether it was actually sent by Alan or not. ”

“... No need, I trust you.” Louise shook her head sadly. “Only I never thought Alan's cousin could do such a thing. To think that our family has given him our unconditional support and he replied to us in this way.”

"… What do you want to do now?" i asked.

Louise fell silent after hearing my question.

After a few seconds, he finally made his decision.

“I have to tell dad. He needs to know what kind of man Alan is.”

"I'm sorry, but I don't think that's a good idea." I smiled wryly and shook my head. "How will you explain the death of the murderers?"

Louise surprised. He then looked at me and sighed apologetically. ". I forgot about that."

Louise was a smart girl, so she immediately understood my words. If he told his father about the assassins, then he would be forced to reveal many other things.

How did the killers die? How did he learn about their origins? Why don't Claire and Lena know anything?

Furthermore, in the current situation, we cannot use the excuse that 'master' I killed the assassins. After all, the Transcendent (outside of the twelfth layer) beside the eldest brother did not detect the powerhouse near me. So, other than the possibility that my 'master' was so powerful than the normal Transcendent was unable to detect it, the only other possibility was, in fact, not my 'master' who killed the assassins.

So, even if Louise doesn't reveal that I killed the killers, when someone asks Lena or Claire about what happened, the truth will be revealed.

Louise looked at me and grabbed my hand. “Claus, thank you for protecting us in advance and for showing me the truth. Don't worry, I won't talk about it to anyone. ”

My lips are slightly curved upwards. I stared right into Louise's green eyes and chuckled. "OKAY. But I think I deserve a prize. ”

"… What do you want?" Louise asked with a slight blush.

"It." Without giving Louise any time to react, I stole her lips.

Louise opened her eyes wide for a moment, but in the next second, she closed her eyes and accepted my kiss with all her heart.

When our lips finally separated, he threw away his face and blushed.

“... J-Do not until there is a strange idea. Just now it's an exception.. It won't happen again.”.

I laugh. As I thought, Louise could potentially become a tsundere.

Hearing my laughter, Louise looked at me unhappily and walked away. I followed him while still smiling.

Meanwhile, I used my consciousness to plant a small seed in his mind.

These seeds are completely harmless, and will not affect Louise in any way. However, it has a very useful function.

After all, even if I wanted to believe it, after living for so long, I learned that even the most loyal person can betray you if there is a good enough reason.

… No need to take risks.

Without knowing anything in my mind, Louise returned with the girls. I followed behind him a little.

However, to the girls' surprise, the door that blocked our path suddenly opened.

Lena tilted her head in doubt. “Why did the door suddenly open? We didn't do anything..”

I forced a smile. Actually I already know the reason.

"Forget it. Let's keep going. ” I said.

"But aren't you curious, brother?" Lena furrowed her brows.

“The door opens for no reason... Could it be that we accidentally solved the puzzle?” dena said again.

“Try me to see..” Louise thought of Lena's words and looked at the door.

“Said that in order to open the door, two hearts must be connected.. Two hearts must be connected... Two hearts must te–” Suddenly, Louise opened her eyes wide.

He then looked at me as if to confirm his thoughts.

I shrugged my shoulders helplessly and smiled. Seeing that, Louise's face was completely red.

“Me-Thinking about it, Claus is right. I think it's better if we continue. ”

“Hm? Did you find anything, cousin?” Lena looked at Louise curiously.

Louise is getting redder than ever. “T-No, Claire. Let's go."

“Mumumumu..” Lena expression turns suspicious. He looked at Louise as if he wanted to see through her mind.

At that moment, someone else spoke.

“So that's what happened!” Claire suddenly exclaimed before looking at Louise and I with a teasing smile. "So, two hearts are connected …"

"Did you find something !?" Lena asked Claire excitedly.

“I'm sorry Lena, you're too young to know.” Claire pretends to be with an adult expression and giggles.

"Dam! We are the same age! Wait a minute, what are you hiding from me!?”

“Nothing.” Claire giggled condescendingly.

"Sister!"

I'm sorry, Lenna. You can't help me this time.
