Special Extra Episode 6

True to his nickname, the Red Darkness Clan, his ruby-like eyes sparkled in the pitch-black darkness.

The sight of her face shining brightly just after waking up was strangely jarring to my senses.

widely.

I pushed away the hand that was resting on my hand. Despite my reaction, Beelzebub simply stepped back with an unconcerned expression.

“Edmund?”

“He’s probably still sleeping.”

“You slept late. Did you sleep late last night?”

“okay.”

I suddenly felt uneasy at that answer. I thought that Edmund, who had pretended to be fine in front of me, might actually still be suffering from a mental illness.

Belzebub curled the corners of his mouth as if he had read my expression.

“It was Elisa yesterday. I heard she failed to get a ticket for her concert.”

“what?”

“So I tried asking around to get a transfer, but they were all… , Flumi. They were all getting mad because it was attached to them.”

Beelzebub spoke, but he seemed not to know exactly what he meant.

I don’t know much about that world, but I’ve heard it a few times. In other words, it means that the ticket scalpers set the price higher than the regular price to make a profit.

“No. You’re close with Elisa. Can’t you just ask for an invitation?”

“I don’t know either. I think it’s polite among fans to compete fairly through ticketing…”

“It’s difficult.”

Hmm. I’m not really sure why Edmund is having such a hard time because I’m not an expert on this subject. But I guess there must be a reason.

“She was crying and making a fuss because she really wanted to go to her first concert. I thought she would stay up all night if I just left her alone, so I put her to bed.”

“you?”

“When you wake up, the back of your neck might hurt a little.”

Hearing those words, it was clear that Beelzebub had not been putting Edmund to sleep in a gentle manner.

No matter what, it’s like that. Do you think it’s so easy to knock out a friend by hitting him on the back of the head? Maybe the standards of the demons are a bit different from ours.

“Edmund seems to have adapted well now.”

“You’re doing too well, it’s a problem. You’re just on your phone all day.”

“What are you going to do with that? Maybe watch YouTube.”

“I don’t know either. He wouldn’t let go of his phone while eating, so I told him to do it after he finished eating, but he said there was someone in there too…”

Belzebub frowned slightly as if he still had a headache thinking about it again. If this continues, I wonder if Edmund will end up in the hospital for internet addiction next time.

Still, it was better than struggling to adapt and struggling.

“Oh, you have a guest! I’ll bring out the tea right away!”

Then Teto appeared from Beelzebub’s shadow.

“Hello, Teto. The car is fine. … And what’s that behind it?”

“These are the things I bought!”

As he spoke, Teto lifted up a huge basket. Inside were all sorts of ingredients, including many I had never seen before.

“What is this used for?”

“Ah. There’s something Edmund recently asked me to try! It’s a foreign dish with these ingredients and various spices added.”

Teto tilted his head and continued speaking.

“The name was… Mara, Tang? I think it was something like that.”

“Edmund wanted to eat that?”

“Yes! It’s trendy these days. I heard you saw it on YouTube. Actually, Edmund-nim ​​keeps wanting to eat delivery food, but he’s worried about eating out, so he wants to cook it himself!”

“… … .”

Edmund… seems to know the latest trends better than I do.

“Teto. You don’t have to put up with all of Edmund’s antics.”

“I do it because I want to! It may sound weird to say this, but when I see you two enjoying the food I make, I feel proud for no reason… Hehe.”

It seemed to me that job satisfaction was the best. Teto left the place in a hurry, saying he would organize the things he had bought in the kitchen.

“So. How did someone so busy end up here?”

Beelzebub leaned against the wall and crossed his arms.

Yes. Finally, the main point. Although the house is registered in my name, the actual residents are Beelzebub, Edmund, and Tetto, so I will need their permission.

I was silent for a moment and then opened my mouth.

“I’d like to stay here for a while.”

“as you please.”

“… … ?”

I was rather bewildered by the permission that came much sooner than I thought. Beelzebub smiled slightly at my face and then opened the curtain with his own hands.

Chorus.

The warm sunlight poured in, illuminating Beelzebub’s profile. The three-dimensional facial lines, as if painstakingly created by a sculptor, were clearly visible.

“If I become your master, can I still not get what I want?”

“I might be staying here for quite some time.”

I had to sell the haunted house and find a new one, and it was going to take a while to find one that I really liked.

The thought of having to repeat that terrible journey from the beginning was already dizzying.

“No problem. Edmund would love it too. He seems to like having a little fun at home.”

I felt a bit awkward because he gave his permission so readily.

Once we nodded, Beelzebub said smoothly, “I guess I can use the room next to the stairs,” and finished assigning the rooms.

“Is that the end?”

“Do you need anything else?”

“… How long will you be staying, what is happening at home, why are you here, things like that, they might be curious.”

“It doesn’t matter how long I stay, the house… I can guess.”

“what?”

“You must have fought that human.”

That human?

“That person you’re obsessed with. He even made a promise not to hurt me.”

“Oh, Unnie Hye-won?”

Wait a minute. You thought Hyewon and I were fighting and said okay, right now? I looked at Beelzebub in disbelief, and he snickered.

“I knew it would turn out that way. I know because I lived with them for a while, but they’re the type of people I absolutely don’t want to get along with…”

Crunch.

“Just say one more thing.”

“… … .”

As he summoned Noite and charged, Beelzebub instantly shut his mouth.

Who is fighting who? And Hye-won is the type of person I don’t want to associate with? There’s a limit to how much you can swear at…

“… No? Then what other reason is there to live here instead of that house?”

The art of turning the tables is an art. But… if we look at it objectively, it’s true that Beelzebub wasn’t treated very well when he lived with Hye-won, so let’s give him some leeway.

He continued speaking, tucking the note into his waistband.

“I became independent. I decided to find a house and move out.”

“you?”

“Yeah. Me.”

“That’s unexpected. He acted as if he was going to stick close to that person for the rest of his life.”

… Actually, it’s not that I had no desire to do that at all.

“It’s too long. I stand out too much to live in the city.”

“Hmm. So? You became independent, so what made you come here?”

“that is….”

When I actually tried to say it, I couldn’t bring myself to open my mouth. But since it was something I couldn’t lie about, I slowly opened my mouth.

“It seemed like the house already had an owner.”

“what?”

“If you think about it, I guess I’m an uninvited guest.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Beelzebub frowned as he spoke from the perspective of an omniscient spirit.

I finally let out a sigh and started telling everyone what had happened.

***

“… So, it seems like the house is possessed by a ghost.”

As we chatted over drinks that Teto brought out, time flew by. Before, he only brought out tea, but Teto must have improved after watching YouTube, because he was able to make things like blue lemonade.

“Hmm. So that’s what happened.”

“Yeah. I don’t know if there’s a concept of ghosts in Toluk either.”

“I’m more familiar with undead than ghosts, but there have been similar cases.”

It seems like everyone’s lives are similar.

“Things changing positions, things moving when you don’t touch them, nightmares at night… We usually interpret these things differently, rather than seeing them as the work of ghosts.”

“differently?”

“okay.”

Click, said Beelzebub, putting down his teacup. He still held on to his Tolluk-style tea while everyone else changed.

“I usually see it as the work of an item.”

“… … It’s an item.”

Items are basically a concept carried over from Tolluk, because they were derived from Gate.

And even if others didn’t know, I knew very well what this item did.

Suddenly, the warmth that had faded in my arms flashed through my mind.

“Yes. Items that have been around for a long time and have acquired a sense of self have their own identity. In that case, the item itself can cause various strange phenomena without the caster.”

Just like Cronus did.

Those who look down on us from the sky, pieces of the gods who are destined to become constellations. When their rank increases, they speak to their masters like Noite, and they hold reason like Cronus did.

‘The gate is gone, but the items remain intact on Earth.’

So, I couldn’t completely ignore the possibility that the item was located in the house I had prepared.

“However, it is difficult to exert that much influence with just any object. Especially if you are claiming ownership of that house, you should at least consider it to be Class A…”

I jumped up from my seat before Beelzebub could even finish speaking.

“… I see. Why are you standing up?”

“I’m going to go home.”

“Didn’t you hear what I said? This is at least an A-class item. If you approach it without caution, you might get in trouble.”

“don’t worry.”

I chuckled. My heart was pounding.

Even though I didn’t want to, I was delighted that my long-time hunter instinct had the chance to run wild for the first time in a while.

“If I win.”

I didn’t say that the beginning of the regression was the gate.
