Chapter 74 – The truth of the Holy Demon War
I suddenly realized that it was getting dark outside.
It’s already night. I should turn on the lights soon.
I lit the candle provided by Strelka.
“Thank you for the many support supplies today as well, Strelka, just like before.”
“O-Of course. If it’s for Rasty-sama’s sake, I’ll do anything.”
“That’s a big help. I’ll be counting on you in the future too.”
As I reached out for a handshake, Strelka’s face turned red. She became somewhat stiff and reached out her hand. Wh-what’s wrong?”
“I-I’ll be counting on you too.”
“What’s wrong? Do you have a fever?”
When I pressed my hand against Strelka’s forehead, there was a “puff” sound, and steam came out. …Whoa, that surprised me.
“H-Hold on… I’m happy, but, um, I still need some time to prepare myself mentally…”
“Eh, wait a minute!?”
Feeling embarrassed, Strelka left the house. As I stood there, I was poked by Havamar.
“You’re such a clueless guy, big brother. It’s a good thing Skor was in the hot spring. If she had seen this scene, it would have turned into a chaotic situation.”
“What are you talking about?”
“…Are you seriously saying that? Your insensitivity gives me a headache.”
“???”
I have no idea what’s going on.
I simply tried my best to establish an intimate relationship… Hmmm. Was it counterproductive?
“This is no good…”
“By the way, Havamar. Do you have any thoughts about that Eduardo?”
Speaking of which, Havamar is known as the “Demon King” in the world. The old Demon King had an fierce battle with the hero Ludmila. That was the “Holy Demon War.” And the hero had companions. There was the great sage Eduardo, and another person whose identity is unknown.
That legend was somehow still alive in its original form. Moreover, she was the Vice Commander of the Dvorak Empire. It doesn’t make sense anymore.
“‘The Great Sage Eduardo? I didn’t think she’s still alive.”
“That’s right. Why is she alive?”
“It’s probably an ‘immortality’ item or something. It seems that there was a time when our clan also sought such an item. Well, being called the Demon King, he must have had strong ambitions.”
Immortality, huh? Neither aging nor dying. Truly the strongest. But does such an item really exist?
“Do you have any idea about the item?”
“What’s this? Does big brother want to become immortal?”
“That’s not it. I’m simply curious. I wonder if such a thing exists.”
“If you ask whether it exists or not, it does.”
“Really? It actually exists.”
Feeling a little excited, I placed my hand on Havamar’s shoulder. Havamar flinched in response, playing with her silver hair with a troubled look on her face. He seemed restless.
“…I-I understand. I’ll be honest with you, big brother. The war fought over that immortality item is the ‘Holy Demon War.'”
“Huh…?”
“The item is called ‘Einherjar.’ Well, it’s more of a ‘soul’ than an item. But it’s categorized as an item―― “
“No, I really don’t get it anymore. And earlier, you acted like you didn’t know. Did you actually know?”
“I-I’m sorry. I wanted you to prioritize the island development and thought unnecessary worries would only create anxiety… I didn’t mean any harm.”
To think she had been so considerate. But I’m happy. I appreciate her sharing about the Holy Demon War, even if just a little. That’s right, it’s best to learn about it gradually.
“Thank you for telling me. So, that means the Great Sage Eduardo has obtained the ‘Einherjar’…?”
“Or perhaps it’s her own power. After all, Eduardo is a Great Sage.”
For now, it’s still just speculation.
I decided to end the conversation there and proceeded to prepare the meal.
