Vol 1 Chapter 3 (2/2)
“Yes Is she also there?”
“She”……that’s definitely Teeri that she is referring about
She knows everything huh I didn’t argue against her I walk front of the girl and went towards the living room
“Hmph, hmph, hmmm”
I return back to the living rooa so leisurely
“Oi, dammit”
I slap Teeri’s head
“Ouch! What was that for!?”
“It isn’t, “What was that for!” You have a guest”
She opens her eyes wide and looks up to the wo behind me
“Y-You!”
She stands up in panic
Shea short distance froe person
“Who is she?”
I ask Teeri under this heavy atmosphere, and she moves her lips a bit
“………………Who are you?”
“You don’t know her!?”
“I don’t Not at all Not even a bit”
“So you aren’t a Devil!?”
“Huh, who is a Devil?”
“I was referring to you……”
She looks puzzled, and it seems like she doesn’t understand what I just said
“I’m not a Devil, you know?”
She shakes her head to the side to show that she isn’t a Devil So she isn’t a Devil? So how does someone who isn’t even a Devil know about Teeri?
“……Then, what are you?”
The instant I ask her that question, she puts on a really big smile
It see for that question to be asked
“I still haven’t introduced myself to you yet, so please allow me to introduce myself to you now”
She fully
“My name is Marc Bisfonde Toulschweine Soir Du Cultique Elise Pleased to make your acquaintance”
“Ah?”
“Eh?”
Both the blonde and I tilt our head at the same time
“I mean, what did you just say?”
“I’m sorry Was that hard to hear?”
“Hard to hear isn’t the issue here……”
“Cough My name is Marc Bisfonde Toulschweine Soir Du Cultique Elise”
“……Eh?”
“Eh……?”
We look at each other again
“Well, I didn’t understand that, but you are called Elise, right?”
“Umm, well, in a way……yes”
It sees her shoulder And for soets unpleasant
“So, what do you ith her? Will you exorcise her for me?”
“In a way, yes”
“Hey, why did you bring such a dangerous girl in!?”
The one who got shocked is obviously Teeri
She ju alert……actually a behaviour where she’s in panic
“Is that it? Looks like she’s going to kill you”
“Ah, uitated about it I only came here to send you back to hell”
“damn, so you didn’t come here to terminate her huh”
“Why are you feeling so sad about it……!?”
Maybe Teeri is still being alert, so she walks around Elise while keeping her distance
It also see whether Elise has any weapon hidden in her body
“I didn’t co so cruel, so be rest assured You do know about the existence of the gate, yes?”
“To soree, I do”
“But she’s saying that she doesn’t reates, you know?”
“There are rare cases when they wander into the gate without knowing about it Maybe the same accident happened to her?”
“That’s good to hear If that’s the case, send her back this instant I was really troubled by her”
“Hey, can you stop saying it as if I was being a nuisance?”
“You were nothing but a nuisance”
“Oh, is that right? So I just have to leave right? I also want to go back to hell after all……”
Why are you looking down andsuch a sad face?
No……rather than putting on a sad face, she has a disgusted face where it looks like she squashed so
Why is she o back to her world?
“Either way, if you are here to send her back, then get right into it”
“Yes, that’s my intention However, may I please explain the situation we are in first?”
“Explaining the situation? I don’t need it I’ as you take her with you”
“I cannot actually do that That is the reason why my job is difficult After all, it is a situation where you are also greatly involved in it”
“I’m also involved? ……da, then sit down first”
“Thank you very much”
I make her sit on the chair, and I also sit on the chair opposite of her For some reason, Teeri also sits next to me
“So you are Teeri-san the Devil, I presume?”
“I am……but how did you know my name?”
It see
“I’ned to surveillance you by the people in Heaven I cael”
So the Devils coels co is possible in this world
When the blonde beauty sh for me to realise how she is someone with such enormous breasts
“Do you even have a proof that you are an Angel? For exa like a solid proof that is si”
“Since no one is here to see us, it looks like I’m able to show it you”
When Elise nods without any pause, she closes her eyes and smiles
Thefro that is white appears from her back
It’s neither a s that anyone would iine
“Will you believe me with this?”
It’s different to the tiny wing that Teeri has Her wings are so big that it looks like she can envelope her own body if she wants to
I suddenly thought of wanting to touch it, but I hold , then I will have to believe her right away
“So then, the real Angel-san, can you take her away right this instance?”
“Unfortunately, I believe that task will be a bit difficult I will explain it you by steps Cough In order to have her return, we need her to go through the gate”
“See? It’s just like what I said, wasn’t it?”
“What are you acting so proud for? You were acting as if you didn’t know much about it yesterday”
“Was I? But I did know more about it then you, Souichirou”
I’ for her to compare herself with lare at her
“This huh the gates We call the gate connecting to the Heaven as “Heaven’s Gate” and the gate connecting to hell as “hell’s Gate” Obviously it isn’t easy to pass through the gates It’s impossible, unless you satisfy certain criteria”
“What is that criteria?”
“You really don’t know anything, do you?”
“I did tell you That I don’t re rare for a Devil to come to the human’s world”
“However, that gate isn’t soh anytime as you like since it opens in certain periods only The next time it will open is in three days from now”
Oh, so that’s why she can’t take her right away Now I’m convinced
“So ao to Heaven and hell if I want to? I ate”
“That’s iate You would need a pair of wing to pass through the gates”
“I see, then that would be iined If that’s the case, it seeht away”
“It isn’t that simple”
Her serious eyes carried an atmosphere where I can’t possibly tease her about it
“Souichirou-san, right now you are in the position where you are standing in the serious split way of your life”
“Split way of my life?”
“You know—”
Then the Devil who can’t sense the atmosphere we are currently in butts in
“It sounds so troublesome, so can the two of you talk between each other?”
“Geez, this is a so important for you Listen to it seriously”
“More than that, I’a Where’s the next volume?”
I’ and irresponsible she is
“U about earlier? This is a serious matter”
“Yeah, whatever Go on then”
“……Souichirou-san Has there been any change to you lately?”
“Huh? Why the sudden question? Not only has there been a change, but I have a Devil staying in el in e, then I don’t see any kind of changes at all”
“I’e in your body, Souichirou-san”
“……What do you mean?”
I ask her while being stiff since there’s so I’m concerned about Maybe she sensed it, so it seems like Elise makes even more of a serious face
“Please answer me”
Is she talking about the weird feeling around my shoulder blade I felt yesterday?
“So there has been a change then……?”
“Does that even got to do anything with you and her?”
“I think there is a high chance that there is”
“Well, I kinda had one I have a weird feeling on my back”
“A weird feeling……? If it’s okay with you, can you please show it to me……?”
I can decline; however, I decided to obey her by being modest I take my clothes off, and turned my back towards Elise I realise when I felt a cold hand touching the area where it was sore yesterday
Her fingers stroke my back It was a bit ticklish; however, I didn’t have the confidence to start laughing with so withto me
“Speaking frankly……this is an o within you is about to bloom”
“A Devil’s qualities……?”
“There is no doubt that the weird feeling you felt is the existence of the “wings” inside you, Souichirou-san”
So you are tellingI had on s like that are even possible……? However, if I think about the situation I’, then there aren’t any factors I can use to disagree with her
“Why is there a wing that is trying to grow out fro about qualities of a Devil?”
“Angels and Devils are the species that humans can become after their death In other words, you can say that we are humans if you look at our roots”
Angels and Devils are former humans? Then does that make Elise and Teeri a former human as well?
“After death, humans will definitely reincarnate as one of those species And that will depend on your action when you were alive Those who did good deeds will becoel, and those who did evil deeds will become a Devil”
“Hold on Even if that is the truth, doesn’t that happen after death?”
“That’s where the concern about you comes in to our discussion If leave you like this, you will beco alive”
I……will beco alive?
“Itspeechless However, please don’t feel down There’s still some hope left in you”
It will be more accurate to say that I haven’t actually accepted that reality yet, so I wasn’t that shocked
“You are going to turn into a Devil, Souichirou?”
“Keep yourmore complicated”
“Rage The way you said sure did tick ”
“Don’t even think of trying it, you Devil!”
“U-Umm……is it possible for the two of you to listen to me more seriously……? This is quite the serious situation that we are in”
“Sorry about that She doesn’t knohen to be serious”
“The saoes for you, Souichirou-san”
She’s s, but for so anything else
“May I start then? For a hu we cannot allow to happen Once you change into a Devil, there’s no way for you to change back”
“Why is that happening to me?”
“We think that it has to do with you being in contact with Teeri-san If you get touched by a Devil, or if a Devil is near you, then it is possible for the traits of a Devil sleeping within you to bloom”
“In other words this short pipsqueak is turning me into a Devil?”
That lare at Teeri, she glares back at me
“Of course, I’ However, the longer a Devil stays with you, the ive you in different ways”
“Alright, get out Get out right this instant, you Devil Perish, Devil!”
When I tried to , she comes closer to me instead
“Isn’t it so so simple where you also become a Devil, Souichirou?”
“Stop screwing around Who on earth would willingly turn into a Devil?”
“Originally, Souichirou-san, you would have spent many decades of your life as a hu on what you have done until that tier you stay in contact with Teeri-san, the ardless of whether you want to or not”
“Alright Like I thought, you, get out right now”
“I definitely won’t”
“You heard what she just said, didn’t you? I will turn into a Devil if you stay with me!”
“What’s wrong with that? You should turn into a Devil! Is there anything wrong with it?”
Teeri lares atpissed?
“Oh yeah, can you ? If its money, then I will pay for─, wait I don’t have any money like that……”
I feel upset after saying that on my own
“Money isn’t the only problem”
Elise looks at Teeri I also look at Teeri who is sitting beside me
“If I take her to another environment, then the people who are present in that location will receive the influence of the Devil We don’t want to spread anymore harm”
“So, what? You are telling ht turn into a Devil?”
“Please don’t be pessimistic Of course, I will help you much as I can”
Hearing Elise, I got so tired that I h
“Devils and Angels, huh Even though I know they exist, I still can’t believe it…… The only serious thing I aht now is this weird sensation on my back”
“So are you concerned about it after all? The wing inside your back, that is”
“Of course I aht turn into a Devil”
I thought of staying at some hotel to keep uarantee thatthat time
The living rooone to school Thinking about that makes all the hair on my body fall
“So will you please allow her to stay here until the tiate to open?”
“It can’t be helped Seriously, this really pisses me off”
“I’ you to do this”
“You should be ……By the way, it’s getting late you know?”
“Oh my, so it is already that late”
Elise stands up, so I also stand up to take her to the entrance
“It seeo and clean it”
“Okay ……Wait, why!? Go home!”
“I did tell you, did I not? That I will be helping you much as possible”
She stands front of the sink She pulls her sleeve up and turns the tap She starts to wash the dishes as if she is used to chores
“That shouldn’t be about doing that Weren’t you supposed to helpinto a Devil?”
“Of course I will help you in regarding that matter Anyhow, since I will be under your care fro you”
“……What do youme?”
“I can’t go back while leaving Teeri-san all by herself here”
I’ such a wonderful s a headache
“Don’t tellto stay here……?”
“I may be inexperienced, but please do take care of me”
She gives a ss to you, and then she bows her head
“hell no I’le Devil!”
“You know, you can siel, it will cancel each other out”
“Rather than cancelling each other out, it will simply just multiply the amount of work for me!”
“Ohjoke certainly is fabulous”
“Are Angel’s wings tasty if I fry them huh? Answer me dammit”
“You words won’t work on s After all, you are a kind person, Souichirou-san”
Where did she hear that froet that information……?
“Anyway, I don’t want to have anyhere”
“So you are saying that you are fine with turning into a Devil?”
“I don’t have any intention of turning into a Devil I also don’t have any intention of having anymore freeloaders in my house either”
Yeah, that’s right Whether they are a Devil or Angel, they have no right to changeas I’m focused, I’m sure I won’t turn into a Devil
“I will not disagree about the fact that it will cause difficulty to your lifestyle However, please think about this situation calmly Souichirou-san, there is no doubt that your body is receiving influence fro you to soree, however, it will also beco within you We have no choice but to use the power of good to counter against power of evil Naturally, humans have the traits of both of them after all”
Her white hands which looks like it doesn’t know any sort of filth grasps onto my violent hand firmly and it wraps around my hand Elise’s hands are a bit cold
I, who never had anyone, hold onto ot a skip beat for an instant
“My existence of being here will have the power to supress the traits of a Devil Can you please endure it for two days from now?”
“Is that the so-called cancelling out you mentioned before?”
“Yes It ood and evil will cancel each other out”
“……It’s seriously for two days right?”
“I promise you”
I don’t have the confidence to decline this Angel who is s
“daht?”
“I thank you Another thing There is an issue I need to warn you about, Souichirou-san”
“What is it? I don’t want any more troubles than I already have”
“It’s related to the weird feeling on your back……the Devil’s wings I did say that it will be influenced if Teeri-san stays with you; however, I need to add few h I have the power to supress it, it will certainly beco on your actions”
“Supressing it? What are you asking me to do?”
“I need you to supress the power of evil inside you, Souichirou-san Violence Abusive language Malice Jealousy Hatred They are emotions that everyone carries Obviously, I carry the out those e in a state where you can easily be influenced by a Devil, then it will end up progressing your traits as a Devil even further”
“……Are you being serious?”
“Yes I a but a truth”
In other words, if I do things like fighting and abusing someone verbally, then I will make myself turn into a Devil?
This is so which will reject the person that I am
“More importantly……that’s like the worst scenario If I keep on taking her seriously, then I will just end up turning into a Devil even more……”
“Ehe”
“Why are you blushi+ng for!? You are causing a huge trouble for me!”
That’s practically telling a fish to survive without water for two days Is it possible forothers?
Even though it’s only for two days, the path I’ towards is filled with darkness
===6===
“Are Angels able eat the sa as humans?”
I ask her after she finishes cleaning the kitchen
“Yes I’m told that it is fine”
“I wonder if there are enough ingredients for three people……”
The only thing inside the fridge is the small quantity of left over from yesterday
“……Looks like I have to go and buy them”
“You are going out? Then I’ with you”
“I will come with you as well”
“Stay quietly at home—wait, what are we supposed to do in a situation like this?”
I don’t want to take theel and a Devil at home
Maybe by the tiht have exorcised the Devil
No, having her exorcise the Devil will be a great help for ets killed in my house
Instead, there’s the possibility that the Devil el Rather, the possibility for that to happen is higher
Either way, I want to avoid a situation where I have to leave both of theels and Devils
“Why do I have to get worried about things like this……? Is this a trial given from God?”
“The lord does no give trials to human, you know?”
“I don’t need a reality opinion like that”
However, the wings of an Angel sure have an overwhel at it makes me step back a bit
Maybe she realised I’ voice
“Oh my, how rude of me This would stand out in a human world”
She s that, and she closes her eyes slowly After aa sound
No, rather than getting s away
Eventually, her wings are gone When I went behind her to check what’s happening on her back, there’s nothing there
It see
“That sure is convenient You didn’t have the out when I first saw you Can you make it appear and disappear as you like?”
“Making the wings disappear isn’t easy, you know? You will need practice to do it”
“And you don’t kno to do that right?”
“Shut up I don’t need to kno to do that”
In her case, her wing is s, so I doubt anyone would cause a stir
However, just because you can’t see their wings doesn’t mean the problem is solved
“Is there any other problem?”
She asks
“No……it’s nothing”
Is there anything wrong withthat
There is a problem Yeah, no matter how you look at her, Elise’s appearance stands out
Her blonde wavy hair Her ideal proportion that isn’t possible for a japanese to have
If she walks outside for a bit, she will be at the centre of attention in no time
On top of that, if she stays with hbourhood in a bad way, I can easily i rumours about us
But it can’t be helped Mythe proble in me
It’s better to bring Elise with me who is here to watch over Teeri
“……Let’s go!”
“Yes”
For today……yeah, let’s have so like that, the three of us leaves the house
===7===
“Doing things like shopping is quite fun”
“Don’t do things like suddenly screah, okay?”
“I won’t do such things So rude”
“We don’t know about that……”
While feeling uneasy, I left the house while bringing the two of them with me Since its July, it’s so hot outside
While I walk in front of the behind me
“I did hear that it’s quite tough during the suined”
“Maybe I should have stayed home……”
The Devil starts whining thirty seconds after getting outside She walks weakly towards the right and then the left She really is useless
“Do all Devils act like her?”
“Uood idea to say the word “Devil” so openly outside……”
She co, but there’s no point to worry about so so minor like that
“There’s no need for you to worry There’s no way that anyone would think she’s a real Devil”
“That may be true, but……”
“Is it that bad? I et exposed”
“You absolutely can’t expose it, Teeri-san The human world will fall into chaos”
“Chaos……uhehehehe”
Teeri shows a creepy s froined a dark world Elise makes a bitter smile when she sees her
“I don’t think it’s a good idea to reveal the existence of Devils, but to begin with, why doesn’t the huels and Devils?”
Teeri seems like she knew about the humans and this world even before I e than her
Well, humans did point out about the existence of God and Devils since thousands of years ago, but there aren’t that many people who know they really exist
They think of them as fictional characters that appear in television and films
“That’s because humans are in a neutral position If they come to understand the existence of us, then it will disturb the evil and good within them that was supposed to come out naturally”
“So you are saying that you will be leaving the fate of humans into the hands of humans themselves?”
“Yes Since they are a being that can becoel or a Devil, it was cause disrupt in theet into contact with them”
If I was asked whether I understand this situation clearly or not, then the will be no I’ll probably say that I got a vague idea about it If a hu in Savana, then it may destroy the nature’s law So that’s basically what this is like
There is a twenty-four seven super hly ten minutes away from my house by walk
It’s really popular a much cheaper than the ones in a convenient store, there is also a discount on bentos from around 6 o’clock
However, there’s a different reason why I shop at this place
The students, in other words the guys at my school, rarely come to shop at this place
There’s a shopping mall that was recentlythere
To tell you the truth, I don’t likethat much
I don’t want ruar, and a scu around
“Being a vulgar and being a scu crap of myself……”
“Eh? What’s wrong with Souichirou who is the only trash that is impossible to be recycled?”
“Did I even say a single word like that!? More i to myself”
“I would obviously feel sick if a guy starts talking to hiht?”
“I-I would be troubled if you asked me foryou should not say I aood manners……”
“Oi……
