The Cute Master Was Actually the Black Demon King

118 – Unidentified Bloodstains

“What are you doing? Disciple.”

White scribbled something in response to Ashera’s question and raised her head.

“Oh, I am writing a letter.”

“A letter?”

“Yes. I thought I should still deliver the news to Sir Edwald.”

Cutting off his words, White moved his quill with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“With the war against the 12 demon lords being declared right away, it wouldn’t be a problem for me to fall into it like this.”

“…… Hmm.”

Ashera let out her drool.

It was because I noticed a bit of bitterness in White’s words.

Moving a little closer to White’s side, she opened her mouth again.

“…… If you wish, you can go back to the system. As the situation on the continent is, taking a break like this won’t be easy.”

With that said, Ashera looked up at White, trying to catch her expression.

It was a sign of careful attention.

At that oddly worried gaze, White let out a smirk.

Then she shook her head.

“It’s okay. Even so, there won’t be a large-scale battle right away, and there will be some time.”

“…… Still.”

“Besides, that’s not what’s important to me, at least right now.”

Cutting off Ashera’s worried words, White smiled lightly.

White quietly reached out her hand toward Ashera.

“Disciple…… ?”

Ashera expressed her doubt at White’s sudden gesture of holding her hand.

White just stared at her.

A smile was still hanging over his lips.

White opened her mouth again in a calm tone.

“Don’t worry, spending time with you is more important than anything else. There is nothing wrong with it.”

“…… !”

And despite the placid tone, Ashera couldn’t help but blush at those words.

A word from White came in suddenly, but the emotion contained in that word was by no means shallow.

Ashera’s eyes began to tremble.

…… She ponders his own disciple, since when did she become so good at speaking her words so cheesy.

I thought about it, but I couldn’t come to a meaningful conclusion.

‘…… Although she originally used a tone that was a bit embarrassing.’

It was, but it was quite different from these kinds of words.

It was never something that would make her blush like this.

“…… It’s okay.”

Ashera carefully avoided her gaze as she felt her entire body heat up.

White’s smile deepened.

And then, in a slightly playful voice, she parted her lips again.

“Are you ashamed? All over again. Didn’t they even whisper love to each other, Master?”

“…… Yes?”

And with those words spoken out like that, no matter how much she said it, she couldn’t bear to hide the momentary embarrassment.

Ashera’s eyes blinked blankly.

However, she was soon able to grasp the meaning of her words.

Her expression hardened for an instant, but then she began to glow red again.

“…… Disciple!”

I tried to scream at her in an angry manner, but even so, her white smile did not disappear.

Rather, she just raised the corners of her mouth as if she could see through her feelings.

Ashera bit her lip and lit the twin wicks in her eyes.

“Do you really need to use such a misleading expression?”

“I’m not sure what you mean.”

Even with Ashera’s ferocious eyes, White’s composure and weakness did not soften.

She just shrugged her shoulders, and he smirked at Ashera’s words.

“Well, how did you interpret my words? This disciple may not understand why Master reacts so severely.”

“…… Ugh!”

On the contrary, it even turns Ashera into a strange person.

Ashera’s face turned red beyond that.

She looks like a ripe apple.

And at the end, the white finish awaited.

“Master, even though you don’t look like that, you have a secretly dark side.”

“… ….”

It was a simple word.

Yes, but it was a word that could not be passed easily.

Ashera’s expression calmed down.

…… In the meantime, White’s words continued.

“Don’t worry. No matter what strange thoughts Master has, I can respect you.”

“… ….”

“Well, I’m not sure, but it must have been a manly idea. I think it can.”

“… ….”

No answer came back.

But White didn’t mind.

Thinking that she must be quite ashamed, White turned her head slightly and looked at Ashera.

“Ah.”

And I was able to see it.

As expected, she wasn’t Asherah blushing in shame.

“…… Disciple.”

With her very cold expression, she saw Ashera glaring at herself coldly.

White had a hunch.

She knew that she had made her biggest mistake.

She was just teasing her because she was cute, but her teacher didn’t seem to want to let the teasing go unnoticed.

“That, Master? I’m sure you know that it’s just a joke.”

I tried to spit it out at Ashera, breaking out in a cold sweat.

“… ….”

“…… Master?”

“… ….”

There was no reply.

On the contrary, her eyes only changed more coldly.

The situation did not get better, on the contrary, it only got worse.

A trickle of cold sweat ran down White’s cheek, and it was about the time she carefully touched the ground.

Ugh-

Ashera moved her mana.

At the same time, she pulls out her own wand.

“Have I been too indifferent to education lately? I thought I was all grown up, but I still have a playful side left.”

As she spit out, Ashera’s expression brought a ghastly smile to her.

And because he wasn’t stupid enough to not even notice that sign, he was white.

“…… Master, calm down for now.”

She took a step behind her, trying her best to calm her down.

“It’s late, disciple.”

Ashera just pictured her bright eye smile.

From White’s point of view, it was an eye smile that felt extremely bloody.

“Today, it’s been a while, shall we get hit by me?”

Ashera let out a grin at her sadism, and shortly thereafter.

Koo Goo Goong-

Formidable mana began to gather in her wand.

“… ….”

And then, White thought.

Her right time to use her magic, she said to come back after the foolishness of a moment ago she had silenced herself.

…… It was.

Unsurprisingly, such an idea could not be put into practice.

It was at the same time Ashera’s wand was lowered.

Kwaaang!

White couldn’t help but feel a tingling pain from the enormous pressure she felt from the crown of her head.

*****

[Friedrich, you don’t look good. Is something going on?]

At the gloomy voice coming from the side, Friedrich turned his head.

A lich caught my eye wearing a black robe, who had become completely accustomed to life in the imperial palace.

“…… Is it Lucifer?”

Spitting out lowly, Friedrich frowned.

[Looks like something happened.]

I wonder if you could feel something out of the ordinary in that reaction.

Lucifer slowly moved her body and approached Friedrich.

[This is…… ?]

And he could see.

A letter placed in front of Friedrich.

“A letter from White.”

[From White…… ?]

At Friedrich’s words, Lucifer’s black eyes flashed and he quickly reached out to her with a letter.

Having snatched the letter halfway, he began reading it slowly.

[Let’s see. Therefore… ….]

Since the magic battle and festival ended right away, it was White who disappeared.

As Lucifer, she couldn’t help but question the boy’s whereabouts.

The timing was also the timing, and I was worried that something bad might have happened.

But if the letter came, wouldn’t that mean that at least you’re all right?

[Hmm, hmm.]

Lucifer happily read the letter, but soon he had no choice but to harden his expression.

[…] … What is this?]

There was no problem with the content itself.

I was just letting you know that I needed a little break.

Other than that, useless greetings were all, and at least Lucifer didn’t care about that.

However, there was one thing that bothered me.

That was not in the contents of the letter.

To be precise, it was in some unknown red liquid smeared on parchment with writing on it.

[Isn’t it blood?]

“Yes.”

Lucipel said it as if he was puzzled, and Friedrich replied in an awkward manner.

It was because he also had doubts about that part.

What can I do to get blood on the letterhead?

At first, I thought it might have been seriously injured, but the calmness felt from the contents meant that the guess was wrong.

[…] … What? Did something go wrong?]

“… ….”

Lucipel tilted his skull over the head in wonder, and Friedrich just remained silent.

Several guesses popped into my head and then subsided.

[Hmm.]

“…… Mmm.”

And.

…… The two great mages were unexpected.

I couldn’t even get close to the truth.

A letter from White.

That the tiny bloodstains on the letterhead were the result of Ashera’s one-sided violence in the name of education.

In a true sense, the two great mages were lost in the dark.
