The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 443

Chapter 443

In the end, Olivia achieved her goal.

The Empire created a situation where it could not dispose of Reinhardt alone.

However, it was unreasonable for the Knights Templar to lead Reinhardt’s new recruit. Because Bertus knew what Olivia’s true purpose was.

Olivia will do everything she can to free Reinhardt. It is impossible by force, so while using political power.

Olivia fed Reinhardt, who had no energy to speak properly, with water and porridge.

Reinhardt, who seemed unwilling to eat, cried and begged him to eat, and only then did Reinhardt take the food Olivia gave him.

all those sights.

Saviolin Tana watched quietly.

“I will come again.”

Olivia got up from her seat and looked down at Reinhardt with a pitiful gaze.

I couldn’t take my eyes off it, but I couldn’t stay here. It was because it was for Reinhardt’s sake to move busily in a place where Reinhardt couldn’t see, not in front of Reinhardt now.

Gritting her teeth, Olivia passed Saviolin Tana through the hallways of the dungeon.

Tana was staring at Reinhardt.

really.

Is the Demon King a being that has nothing to do with evil?

* * *

When Olivia Ranze returned to the people waiting on the ground, Olivia could see an additional person.

Somehow, even before, I always felt blind.

A girl with dark hair who feels like she’s sluggish now.

Ellen Artorius stood by Bertus.

He didn’t even know why he was called here, he just came because he was told to come.

He was an empty man with no thoughts and no will.

that look.

It was somehow like Reinhardt, who was imprisoned in a dungeon.

Just as Reinhardt seemed to have given up everything in despair.

Ellen Artorius also seemed to have given up on everything because of a sense of betrayal.

Olivia smiled viciously at Bertus, who stood next to Ellen.

“Oh, I know what you’re thinking.”

Being threatened by a holy relic, he brought a warrior with another holy relic.

In order to resist Olivia’s tyranny, you need to bring more justification.

Olivia is the champion of Tuan, chosen by Tiamata.

However, Ellen is the younger sister of Lagan Artorius.

Not only does he have no choice but to receive the support of the Church of Mensis, but he is also the younger brother of Lagan Artorius, so he has no choice but to receive the support of the majority of the people.

Objectively, Ellen has a bigger cause than Olivia.

So Bertus brought Ellen to the justification to stop Olivia’s violence.

And Ellen even has Rapelt, the sacred object of the sun god.

Only Reinhardt and Charlotte know that Ellen has Rapelt.

However, if this fact is known, Ellen, the holder of the two holy objects, will have a stronger cause than Olivia.

Of course, the paladins brought by Olivia would also feel confused if Ellen thought differently than Olivia.

The division of paladins soon causes a division of support, and Olivia is unable to carry out any more violence.

However, Olivia stares at Ellen in silence.

Olivia does not know that Ellen played a decisive role in tracking down the demon king.

just that face.

With that look on her face as she was about to lose everything in the world, she knew that Ellen had fallen into abyss.

“Are you okay like this?”

“… … .”

Ellen had no answer to Olivia’s words.

“Are you going to just call Reinhardt a bad guy and let Reinhardt die while crying and crying?”

“… … .”

“Are you only good enough for that?”

At those words, the light returned to the dead Ellen’s eyes.

anger.

The cruel words that her heart was not a big deal pierced Ellen’s dead heart.

“What does your sister know?”

“Don’t you know?”

Olivia raises the corners of her mouth at an angle.

“But I know that you will stay in the corner of the room saying, ‘Reinhardt is the son of the evil demon king who killed my brother,’ and be mortified.”

Ellen gritted her teeth at the provocation.

“My heart… … . I… … . what am i thinking… … . I’m Reinhardt… … . how much i liked it… … . how i feel… … . How does your sister know… … . How do you know… … . sister… … . What do you know… … .”

In the end, Olivia covered her mouth and laughed as she watched Ellen with her lips quivering and tears falling.

“Oh yes, that would be sad. be sad to be sad Who said what?”

Olivia looks up with a grim smile.

It was as if he had forgotten that numerous strongmen and paladins were watching him.

As if he only thinks about expressing his mind and expressing it nakedly.

“Reinhardt could be evil. He could be a bad guy. They may be plotting something terribly sinister. Yes, it could be.”

“however.”

“I will trust Reinhardt to the end.”

“Whether you get betrayed at the end of the day or something happens.”

“Even if I am wrong.”

“I will believe Reinhardt.”

“So you were all that was.”

“They say Reinhardt is the Demon King. It’s so scary and sad, I’m going crazy with the sense of betrayal.”

“It is. Then dry up and die. like an idiot.”

“To be unhappy because you believe, or to be unhappy because you don’t believe. If there is a choice between the two.”

“I believe I will be unhappy. understand?”

“It’s different from someone like you.”

It was something that should not be said in front of the paladins.

But Olivia said it calmly.

I believe in the devil

“Let’s go back.”

Olivia gestures towards the Paladins who have lost their spirits at the bombardment.

While holding hands in pockets.

Instead of being Tuan’s champion, he leads the Paladins like a local gangster and goes back.

Ellen’s face was pale.

am i the only one who is

I’m afraid to even listen to it, so I can’t.

Do you become unhappy because you believe or you become unhappy because you do not believe?

If both are unhappiness, which misfortune is better?

Shocked that I had been tricked so far, I was confined to the corner of my room.

Everything Olivia Ranze said was true.

This heart wouldn’t be a lie

I thought I wouldn’t lose to anyone with the size of my heart.

To live like this, lost in fear and betrayal, in a daze.

Ellen didn’t know anything else, but she knew one thing.

I don’t know what I’m good at though.

It must be wrong to just cry like this.

* * *

Olivia Ranche returned with the Paladins.

Before all the people on the continent know about the existence of the hero, rumors that the hero was the devil will be covered.

Conflicts with religious groups would become inevitable. What Bertus had to do now was to prevent this from turning into a war.

After Olivia went back, the alert was lifted and Bertus brought Ellen into the office.

It is true that Reinhardt is the Demon King.

Olivia Ranze decided to trust Reinhardt nonetheless.

I didn’t want to think that I could trust him because he had saved me several times.

You become unhappy because you believe, and you become unhappy because you do not believe.

Olivia Ranze said that if there were two crossroads, I would be unhappy for believing.

that you were only that much

Olivia’s words were deeply embedded in Ellen’s chest.

Was it something you could believe in?

I’ve been hiding such a thing, but should I believe it?

is that possible

that’s impossible

It seems impossible.

Ellen had just seen someone capable of that.

Of course, since Olivia was favored by the demon king, it was inevitable that it would be easier for her to believe in the demon king.

Ellen thinks.

everything that has happened so far.

Maybe all that time wasn’t a false time. By believing in Reinhardt, can the time that has now become fake be made real?

I’m a bit more

Should I have trusted Reinhardt?

He couldn’t do what Olivia could do.

Was I really only that much?

“… … .”

Ellen just stared blankly at the table with empty eyes.

“Ellen, you have the full right to attend the Papal Council of the Five Great Masters. you know that?”

“… … okay?”

At Bertus’ words, Ellen muttered in a daze.

“Olivia Ranze will try to justify the demon king’s actions somehow after bringing him into the Temple Knights side. So you’re the only one who has the right to say that crazy piece of shit about that.”

“… … I guess.”

“… … .”

At Ellen’s feeble reply, Bertus looks at Ellen with his arms crossed.

“Do you really want to trust Reinhardt too?”

“… … .”

“It is the same for everyone. I wish all the crazy things Reinhardt said were true. But I just can’t believe it. It makes no sense. And let’s assume that Reinhardt’s intention is true. Still, the problem is the same.”

Ellen bit her lip.

“At this rate, Olivia will say bullshit that the demon king should be recognized as a champion because he was chosen by two sacred relics. Then, mankind will be released into the world in a state where they can get their hands on the two main cults and the demonic cult. Regardless of whether or not Reinhardt really hates humans, the fact that the continent will split in two is of course, and that the Second Pandemonium War could happen again in the future. Regardless of Reinhardt’s will, the division is certain.”

I don’t know if it’s simply the demon king, but he’s even the champion of the gods.

There, the demonists follow the demon king.

Not only does it accomplish the miraculous work of unifying the main religion and the demonic religion, but it also becomes a force completely exclusive to the Empire.

Reinhardt’s existence is so huge that even if he himself does not want a conflict, it is certain that it will already be the starting point of a huge conflict.

Bertus could not let the Demon King quietly release to the world in the position of protecting the empire.

Ellen listened to the story quietly and spat out a word.

“I’ll try to attend the meeting of the Five Major Churches.”

Without saying anything about what we’re going to talk about there.

“me… … . Reinhardt… … . Can I go see it?”

Ellen said that as if she was thinking only of that side.

* * *

Standing in front of the chained Reinhardt, Ellen was startled by the guilt welling up in her heart.

He played a decisive role in catching the demon king who threatened humanity.

No matter who in the world heard it, it was a good thing and an achievement that will go down in history.

However, what Ellen felt as soon as she saw Reinhardt drooping down was neither exhilaration nor the joy she felt in her vengeance.

A sense of guilt engulfed the depths of my heart.

I.

I am Reinhardt.

I made Reinhardt like this.

“… … .”

Of course, I didn’t think that I would be treated well, but seeing it with my own eyes was another matter.

As she watched the miserable situation, Ellen’s fingertips trembled and her breath suffocated.

It felt like someone was squeezing my heart.

Reinhardt lifts his head with difficulty and stares at Ellen standing outside the cage.

Reinhardt gagged, exhausted or given up, trying to stare at the invisible Ellen with unfocused eyes.

Seeing the tears welling up in Reinhardt’s unfocused eyes, as if he had finally recognized Ellen, Ellen felt like tearing her heart out.

“… … .”

Are those tears even fake?

It can’t be.

Absolutely not.

Ellen’s lips trembled as she looked at Reinhardt in the prison holding the barbed wire.

I.

what the hell am i doing

What have I done?

I want to say I’m sorry

Knowing that she had no right to say such a thing, Ellen grimaced.

The son of the demon king who killed his brother.

The things that have been lied to so far.

A lot of things that have been done without telling anyone.

All of that disappeared when he saw Reinhardt’s broken figure.

It’s my fault.

i ruined everything

I should have believed a little more.

At least I should have listened to the story.

It didn’t.

Tired of fear and terror, seized by betrayal and suspicion.

I didn’t even hear the story.

If you had done that, if you had given yourself a chance to speak.

no. actually said

He said it in a playful way, but what he said then could have been something he was trying to do to relieve his inner frustration and depression.

If only I had listened to that a little bit seriously then.

If only I hadn’t taken it as a pointless, unpleasant joke.

It may not have happened like this.

I didn’t trust Reinhardt.

so.

everything is broken

“I… … . i’m all… … . screwed up… … .”

Saviolin Tana stares at Ellen, who trembles and cries.

Reinhardt lowered his head and couldn’t say anything because he was gagged.

However, Reinhardt shook his head with difficulty.

Like it’s not your fault.

Seeing this, Ellen couldn’t help but tremble even more and sob.

Saviolin Tana stares at it.

Ellen Artorius, who seemed to have captured the demon king herself, collapsed when she saw the captured demon king.

Olivia Ranze declares that she will save Reinhardt.

By winning the hearts of very important beings, Reinhardt had the possibility to survive even after being revealed as the Demon King.

If the demon king himself is the owner of the holy object and gains the support of Olivia and Ellen, the demon king can survive through political means rather than war.

No, that’s not all.

It might even be possible to tear off half of the human race and take it under its own power.

It is possible that such a thing could be possible because his identity was revealed.

this too.

Is it the devil’s trick?

Saviolin Tana sees the Demon King beyond the crying Ellen.

It’s not your fault. So, the demon king shakes his head as if telling him not to cry.

Could that difficult nod be a lie?

Getting into the mind of Saviolin Tana.

Suspicions and doubts were rising like dark clouds.
