◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

I simply looked at her.

She silently stroked the apple.

“Have you been well?”

In the silence where I was lost for words, it was she who broke it.

She was a noble woman.

Her snow-white hair and eyes that shone like jewels more than anything else made it hard to believe she was a living being.

It was like a painted craft.

She had always been like that.

But now I couldn’t help but feel sorry for that appearance.

When I played the game from the protagonist’s point of view, most of the deaths of human mages in the latter half were related to her.

Until now, I didn’t even know that this woman was Jekkiel’s fiancée.

I thought she was a slave because Jekkiel treated her like one.

“Not particularly.”

“That’s fortunate.”

We knew each other without introductions.

Christine Kiss & Glory.

Jekkiel’s fiancée and de facto secretary.

Later, she solidified her position as the Vampire Queen.

…Well, just because they were engaged didn’t mean they got along well.

From the moment I possessed this world, Jekkiel was already greatly hated by Christine.

I didn’t know the reason.

They said their engagement period was over a thousand years, and Christine had even been imprisoned in the dungeon of the demon realm during that time.

It was only at the start of this world’s main scenario that she was finally released from prison.

So, this was the first time I actually saw her too.

She was still staring at the apple.

Thanks to that, I was relieved that our eyes didn’t meet.

“You killed two of my subordinates.”

Strictly speaking, it was one.

The other was killed by the principal.

But the longer the words, the uglier they become, so I kept it short.

“It was inevitable.”

I didn’t say anything untrue.

But I saw Christine’s lips twitch once.

“Do you remember Belua?”

“I remember.”

.

.

“Do you remember Brezina?”

“I remember her too.”

Christine’s roll call continued for quite a while.

I just answered lightly.

In fact, I remembered their names.

She finally put the apple down gently on the windowsill.

Our eyes finally met.

Her eyes, which had been most transparent, were now quite murky.

A hostility that was far more than mere anger was looking at me.

“They all died because of you.”

It wasn’t untrue.

The names that had just come out of Christine’s mouth were all vampires who had been sacrificed in the process of me quitting my position as an executive in the demon realm.

“Is that all you have to say?”

If that was all, I wanted to send Christine back for now.

If we reached the true ending, this world would become happier than ever anyway.

She would be able to see all the demons she had in her mind.

“Don’t you have anything more to say?”

“No.”

Christine, who had been sitting on the windowsill, walked towards me.

There was no sound from her footsteps.

“Traitor.”

Finally, the distance was close enough for our breaths to touch.

“You betrayed everyone. I’ll ask two more things.”

She looked straight at me and asked.

“Do you remember the promise you made when you got engaged to me fifteen hundred years ago?”

A gaze as sharp as a blade pierced through me.

I didn’t know the promise Jekkiel and Christine had made.

It was fifteen hundred years ago, and I was seeing Christine for the first time today.

A half-baked pretense of knowing wouldn’t work.

The best I could do was just to be honest.

“I don’t remember.”

Crack-

The apple on the windowsill shattered.

It was the apple that burst, but I was quite tense too.

If black magic was used in the hospital room, it would be bad for me, who had to maintain my identity as a professor.

Feeling awkward, I said something.

“It was too long ago.”

“Yes.”

Christine finally smirked and nodded.

It was an expression that came out when feeling too much anger.

Resignation that even overcame anger.

“I thought you would answer like that.”

She placed a ring on the table next to her.

It was a ring I had never seen before.

“I’m going to throw it away now too.”

But I could immediately understand that it was an engagement ring.

From the moment I possessed Jekkiel, there was already nothing on his hand.

Her eyes became even more murky.

With those eyes filled with complicated emotions, she asked one more thing.

“Now, there’s one last thing left.”

“Go ahead.”

She snapped her fingers and opened a small crack leading to the demon realm.

“What do you think? Do the Sin of Pride and I suit each other?”

A devastating tone directed at the person who had been her fiancé until just now.

A face that seemed to have given up on everything.

Or anger and hatred.

“A perfect match.”

I just answered like that.

“Ha…”

Christine just smirked again and disappeared as if being sucked into the crack.

I let out a deep sigh of relief and closely examined the ring Christine had left behind.

[ Christine’s Ring ]

▶Grade: Mythical

▶It nullifies ‘all’ the weaknesses possessed by the vampire race.

▶It must be worn on the left ring finger to receive the effect.

“Hmm?”

My eyes instinctively widened.

The weaknesses of the vampire race.

Things like being in danger when exposed to sunlight for a long time, being weak to garlic, being weak to things made of silver… This was half true and half false.

It was true that we had those weaknesses, but high-ranking entities had the ‘blessing’ given by the King and Queen, so they gained immunity.

So it was half true and half false.

‘It became dangerous anyway, since I quit being a King.’

I, who had quit being an executive, had assumed all those weaknesses.

I had just endured it by consuming life force to not show it.

‘But if I have this…’

It means the consumption of life force will decrease exponentially.

Can I put this on? No, it’s not about whether I can put it on.

What am I hesitating for?

I immediately put the ring on my left ring finger.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

 

The subordinates lined up on both sides.

At the front, two secretaries greeted Christine.

They were the twin secretaries with twin tails, Artel and Pertel.

Apart from the colors of pink and purple, their appearances were exactly the same.

Looking at Christine’s left hand, Artel smiled brightly.

“You’ve come.”

But Christine silently passed by them.

Something inside her body felt like it would burn her brain.

Christine only wanted to confirm one thing today.

Whether Jekkiel really remembered that promise.

Just that one thing.

But the result was so miserable.

She had expected it, but even if it was the expected outcome, resentment and rage welled up.

-Please get engaged to me.

-Ah…

That day, Christine clearly said.

-I wish the demon realm and human realm could coexist in harmony.

If he didn’t risk his life for the title of war hero, if he chose harmony over destruction, she would gladly remain as just a wife forever.

This was not a simple contract, but Christine’s own mission, so she clearly stated that she would never get engaged if he had no intention of helping with it.

-I will.

And that was his answer.

He must have said that with a smile on his face, more confident than anyone else.

That’s why Christine must have dedicated her everything into that goal.

-You have no charm as a woman. Do you recognize it yourself?

-I’m sorry. I’ll try.

It didn’t even take 6 years for that happiness to shatter.

Jekkiel, perhaps tired of Christine’s nagging, or perhaps because he had already gotten engaged and lost interest.

Whichever it was, he began to thoroughly ignore Christine.

He also didn’t keep his promise.

He killed humans again and again, and brutally murdered demons of different races as well.

He was a person who enjoyed pleasure and luxury more than anything else.

His followers praised this as the true face of a vampire King, but it was something Christine couldn’t understand.

-Your heart is quite useful. What do you think, would it be good to give it to me?

-I will.

-Yes, you should at least be of help like that.

Amidst the repeated slaughter and indulgence, he even took Christine’s heart.

-The Demon King was quite angry about this incident, I was wondering if you could go to prison in my place.

-Pardon…?

-You’re always at home anyway, so please do it for about three hundred years.

-…I will.

It was a major incident where all the people related to Christine were imprisoned in the demon realm’s dungeon, but other demons highly praised it, saying there was no better-looking couple than this.

Since everyone praised it, it was an engagement that couldn’t be broken by others’ power.

Either Jekkiel had to do it, or Christine had to.

But Christine wanted to set Jekkiel straight because she was his fiancée.

She thought she could set him straight.

However, that delusion had lasted for fifteen hundred years as of today.

Christine was nothing to him.

Just a trophy from a past era, treated as… just a decorative piece.

‘Even the bloodline of the Vampire Queen is just one female staying by King Jekkiel’s side.’

He had displayed Christine for a thousand and five hundred years just to give off that nuance.

Even telling lies.

Deceiving Christine with sweet lies…

“Queen Christine?”

Artel’s voice struck her ears.

Christine finally realized that she had stopped blankly.

As she started walking again, she became lost in thought once more.

-The Sin of Pride is an unavoidable position. You have no choice but to take others’ lives.

-Therefore, I think that position is truly worthless.

Even now, she sincerely thought so.

What nobility was there in this measly position that created happiness from others’ misfortune and boasted pride with that happiness?

However, Jekkiel had once again made her miserable.

-That bastard Jekkiel quit being an executive. We need a demon to fill the position of sin right now.

-Pardon?

-Christine, you have to do it.

It was a sudden release and a sudden succession.

She wanted to at least ask the reason for quitting, but she couldn’t.

Except for the vampires on Christine’s side who had been imprisoned, they had all died.

-Do you perhaps not know the reason?

-He really cleaned his hands, he killed all his subordinates and left.

Lycan, the Sin of Wrath, speculated like that.

Jekkiel had been toying with Christine like that until the very end.

-Do the Sin of Pride and I suit each other?

-A perfect match.

He was thinking of it as a kind of amusement, putting Christine, who hated the throne of sin more than anyone else, as the Sin of Pride.

Tying Christine to the throne and cleanly washing his own hands before escaping.

Surely that was it.

Surely that was it, but…

‘He was writing a letter.’

You’re writing a letter?

To a human?

She unintentionally skimmed through the contents.

It felt like her head was about to explode.

What should she consider to have seen, what should she pretend not to have seen?

“Ah…”

She felt dizzy.

Christine staggered.

“Queen Christine.”

“Queen Christine! Are you alright!”

Artel and Pertel immediately rushed to her.

But Christine brushed them off.

“Each of you, do your own work.”

With those words, she gracefully disappeared.

The reason Jekkiel infiltrated Rahel Academy was obvious.

He was probably trying to start another war, again…

There was no way to deal with the throbbing headache.

But then, the purple secretary, Pertel, suddenly stopped and opened her mouth.

“Queen Christine.”

Christine, who had been walking ahead, stopped.

“Why did you send Alfred and Clyde? They both don’t know Jekkiel. Why didn’t you give them information about Jekkiel?”

“What are you blabbering about!”

Artel immediately grabbed Pertel.

But Pertel stubbornly asked.

“Pertel clearly advised. Don’t give them blood beads. But you did. In the end, as expected, Jekkiel ate them. Now assassination is a little more difficult…”

Thwack—

In the end, Artel drove a long vertical nail into Pertel’s shoulder.

Then she glared at Pertel, who was fixed to the ground, as if to kill her.

“…I’ll escort her and come back, so you shut up and wait here.”

Artel escorted Christine into the castle.

Numerous subordinates followed, passing by Pertel who was nailed to the ground.

“Hesitation, no good. Hesitation, no good.”

Pertel muttered quietly while nailed.

Only if Jekkiel died could Christine be happy.

The secretary understood that all too well.

So…

“Jekkiel, must die.”

If Christine didn’t do it, she had no choice but to step up and kill him herself.

Huh, so none of them understand that the MC didn’t kill his subordinates, the demon king did. And they don’t understand that in the last 100 years, the MC was earnestly trying to work towards coexistence.

It’s stated that she and all her subordinates were imprisoned for a long time, properly much more than the 100 hundred years he lived in the demon realm.

So, if the truth was distorted before it reach her, then it’s totally logical. (Specially when the only known witness is the demon king)

Another side for this, even if she know exactly what happened, she still can blame him without any misunderstanding, simply because she knows him for 1000 years and have enough faith in her understanding of him, and there is nothing wrong here as well.

But, it seems that the author plan to push every main character to the edge of despair and depression before solving thier immediate concerns through the protagonist.

Yeah so basically before being replaced by the MC the dude was so bad he made his wife so bias towards him that even simple information won’t register to her. Thus misunderstandings

“Amidst the repeated slaughter and indulgence, he even took Christine’s heart.”

im guessing this is an indirect way of saying he slept with her? the dialogue before that is a bit strange if thats the case though… maybe he literally tore her heart out to consume it or fuel a ritual or something, which would be terribly poetic.
