Duke Perdia, who said he would come back later, kept his promise.
Knock, knock.
“Elodie.”
The duke’s voice was heard along with a neat knocking sound.
Ugh. I looked back at Greed with bewilderment.
‘Wouldn’t it be strange if a black fox suddenly appeared?’
It could be dangerous to add a suspicious element to the person whose sudden appearance in the temple was already being questioned.
I slipped off the bed; Greed tilted its head and looked up at me.
It was just a cute black fox on the outside, but I didn’t know what this guy would do.
I held out the sealing stone and commanded Greed.
“Go in.”
[Don’t want to….!]
Greed resisted with a wrinkled nose.
Pad!
The figure disappeared in an instant, and red energy filled the seal stone, which seemed empty before, like a roaring flame.
“You’re like a damn fox. You don’t listen to me.”
I took a step to open the door quickly.
[I’m watching and listening.]
“Hiiek!”
I was surprised by the voice in my ear as if it was right next to me, so I looked around, but there was nothing.
Soon a mocking voice was heard.
[So funny.]
Only then did I get a rough idea of the situation.
“Are you able to talk even when you are in the sealing stone?”
[That’s right. It’s possible because I have a contract with you. You and I are one.]
I wanted to pry into details, drooping its greedy cheeks, which made unpleasant sounds casually, but I couldn’t.
Knock, knock, knock.
The knock, which was strangely more powerful than before, took my nerves away.
Dealing with Greed was put off for now, and I quickly opened the door.
It wasn’t Duke Perdia who was welcoming me.
“Sister, why are you opening the door so late? I almost broke in.”
“I fell asleep……. why…..are you all here?”
I saw three people standing behind Carlot.
I thought only Duke Perdia would come, but the duchess, Jansi and Carlot were there.
The duke alone was difficult enough, but the difficulty suddenly increased as I had to deal with three more people at once.
