Regressor Instruction Manual

Chapter 832: The Last (65)

“Of course, I have to keep it.”

—…

“Actually, I expected it, but I want to say that you made a very good choice. I will do my best to make a deal without regrets that can benefit both of us.”

—…

“Always for customer satisfaction…”

—Stop…

“So… How far do you know?”

—Isn’t that your problem? I’d love to hear from you about what kind of deal can benefit both of us.

“You don’t have to look so serious, Commander. Oh, and take back your troops, please. If possible, I would be grateful if you could return Deokgu as well. If you’re nervous, just give me back Deokgu. You don’t really need to do this in the process of finding a deal that will satisfy us both. A true relationship can be established only when we trust each other… you’re being so overbearing, which makes me wonder if you don’t trust me…”

—I don’t trust you. Who would do that?

“Why do you keep doing this? We’ll both benefit from this. Deokgu, make a cup of coffee for the Commander.”

Park Deokgu rolled his eyes and got up. He then looked at me with a puzzled face.

—I don’t need it.

“Such small actions hurt people, Commander. When you refuse a sincere favor, you make me want to cry.”

—Bullsh*t. I don’t want to joke around with you, Lee Kiyoung. These troops are a safeguard. A safety device to keep you from doing anything sh*tty.

“Hey… take this, Demon Summoner…”

He took a sip of the coffee that Park Deokgu brought him and looked at me.

He frowned after passing the coffee through his throat. It didn’t seem to suit his taste.

I watched him quietly putting the coffee away in a corner and sipping tea again.

“Why would you need a safety device? It’s something that works for both of us. Humans like us are crazy about things like this. It’s a mutually beneficial deal where we’ll both get what we want without losing anything.”

—I won’t deny it. However…

“From the standpoint of the continent’s best Honorary Cardinal, to be honest, it is almost impossible to save your face now. Sora?”

“Ah… Yes, Vice Guild Master?”

“Go to Benignore Net, search for posts related to him, and read them right away.”

“Ah. Y-You mean… now?”

“Yeah, a simple one is fine too. One that’s got a lot of views, though.”

“Do I have to… read it?”

“Yeah. Please read without skipping anything.”

“Ah… okay.”

She quietly nodded, taking the Goddess’s Hand Mirror. Of course, I also took out the hand mirror in my pocket and immediately turned my gaze to it.

‘What is this?’

[My Post]

[Title: I shouldn’t write something like this in the current state of the world, but… I think an elf confessed to me. No, I honestly don’t know. I need your advice, guys. (Comments: 1,024)]

[Written by: I like the B1ue color]

[I know that many people are worried and concerned about what is happening, but I am posting this like a complaint because I have no place to tell anyone about my complicated feelings. To begin with, I think I was confessed to by an elf. I can’t say who he is, but he’s a high-ranking person in the kingdom of Eberia. We don’t know each other well. All we’ve ever done was bump into each other for important meetings and other things, and we ate and drank tea together, too, a handful of times. So, of course, I didn’t think he would have a crush on me. This is how it happened. His younger sister… omitted…

He said, “I don’t think it’s absurd that I have different feelings for you.” I didn’t say anything, but… the current situation isn’t good, so I’m worried about how to answer him. Is it okay to refuse properly? Or would it be better to tell him after things get better? I know it’s not the right time to talk about it, and I know we’re in a predicament, but I’m worried that he might feel like I’m ignoring him, which is why I’m waiting for advice from those who know the elves well.]

[ID Undecided: What a load of bullsh*t. That’s bullsh*t. You can write a . Hahahahahahahahahahaha]

[I like the B1ue color: Huh?]

[ID Undecided: Sure, you put a lot of effort into this story, but it’s too shabby. You’re not even joking. Aren’t you the one who came up with a weird post before? This time, you suddenly received a confession from an elf. Excuse me. If you want to write a , you have to write it properly. Eberia is now under control, and I can’t believe that you met a high-ranking official there. LOL. You’re just too ridiculous. Hahahaha]

[Lindel Village Resident: The current situation is not good… and this kind of post is a bit… inappropriate. I do not agree with ID Undecided, but in the current situation where Eberia detains continental adventurers and tourists, this article is a bit… should I say that you don’t seem to understand the atmosphere?]

[I like the B1ue color: I posted this because I wanted to get advice from you. As I said, the atmosphere isn’t good, so I’m asking for advice on how to act… I never meant to offend you guys. I’m not unaware of the seriousness of the situation.]

[Wooden Spoon: This person has been posting a lot of bullsh*t since a long time ago. There was also an amnesia story… ]

[I like the B1ue color: I’m not making it up.]

[ID undecided: Just take my dislike.]

[Nananananan: I also got confessed to by some elves… it’s a bit hard because of cultural differences, but now I am dating one of them. There’s a little bit of an age difference… anyway, even if you say no, don’t say no too harshly. Elves often take their own lives if they fail…]

[I like the B1ue color: What? Is that true?]

[H.G.S.A.L Lover: Reported as a controversial article. ^^;;]

‘What, she…’

I quickly realized that it wasn’t my hand mirror.

I thought it was posted right after the incident, so I wanted to take a closer look at the comments and Cho Hyejin’s reaction, but I immediately looked away.

It didn’t feel right for some reason, and it felt like I had opened Pandora’s box.

‘Just put it aside.’

The client had to come first. Wasn’t Lee Kiyoung a professional who always put customers first?

‘She really…’

As soon as I started coughing in embarrassment, Han Sora spoke up.

“Jin Qing? Ah… That demon summoner bastard? Do I have to read c-curses too?”

—…

“Unfiltered and transparent. Isn’t that the motto of our company?”

“He’s the Guild Master of a small-sized guild in the Republic. I’ve worked with and had a meal with that demon summoner bastard. Until then, I thought that that bastard was a talented person who could change us, who would lead the Republic…”

‘Qing, you don’t look too good.’

“In the end, it was all about his own greed and personal desires. Just thinking that I was deceived by that bastard and followed him makes me lose sleep these days. Demon Summoner bastard. He even died without paying for his sins properly… I wish he suffered a little bit more. Deceiver. Scammer. Dirty Demon Summoner.”

—…

“S-Should I read the comments too?”

“Honesty! Transparency!”

“Ah… Yes. There was a time when I worked for Jin Qing for a while… that bastard was a show-off. Pretending to be different, pretending to be special, pretending to be superior to others, pretending to look down on the world. At the time, I really thought he was someone else, but…”

“Buuut?”

“Who would have known that that specialty was something that came out of a contract with a demon?”

“This is how public opinion is. Please continue, Sora.”

“There’s a comment that defends the Commander.”

—…

“After that, there is a reply that says… demon summoner son of a bitch. And next… Yeah… That… it’s a picture… composite pictures… the Commander’s face is on a demon’s body and… yeah… do I have to show it?”

“No. To protect the client’s mental health, let’s not show it.”

Naturally, he frowned.

“Anyway, that’s pretty much it, Commander.”

—It’s all your…

‘He’s about to get mad again.’

“No. Commander. Actually, I ran all day and night for your honor. The plan for the second anniversary of your reputation cleansing was in progress before the sudden appearance of hostile groups turned the plan into nothing. You must feel treated unfairly. Of course, I understand that feeling, but sometimes, things happen out of our hands. That was exactly the case. It was something I never expected.”

I felt like he was catching his breath.

“In fact, you can tell by looking at the sudden change in public opinion before and after the formation of the group. It’s not that I didn’t keep my promise. It was that I couldn’t keep the promise. I’ll clear you of false accusations. I will prove again that you were the true hero who sacrificed for this land.”

—You don’t have to pay lip service, and there is no need to put yourself out there. You don’t have to prove I was a hero. You don’t have to do anything more than necessary. I just want you to clarify that I’m not a demon summoner.

“Will that be enough?”

—I…

“Let’s go with something more certain. You probably won’t be disappointed either.”

It was better to deal with things like this with certainty in the first place. Park Deokgu was quietly looking at Jin Qing as if he felt that something was going on strangely.

“What do you mean…? Are you saying that Jin Qing wasn’t a demon summoner?”

“…”

“No, how could that… be? What the hell… is this…”

“It’s a long story, Deokgu. One thing is for sure. The Commander is still fighting the devil inside him…”

—Stop with that bullsh*t…

“Sora. Send out what’s happening here on the whole continent.”

—Don’t do useless things, Lee Kiyoung! I warned you. Jung Hayan is faster than Han Sora. She can show what’s going on here across the continent…

As if she thought she should show the reaction of the continent’s people, she displayed the external situation. I could see those looking at the Goddess’s Mirror floating in the sky blankly.

They were probably wondering what the hell was going on. And why the Holy Spear of Blue, Cho Hyejin, and the Demon Summoner, who they thought was dead, were together, and what the hell were they doing right now. The people of the continent shuddered with fear while murmuring.

Jin Qing wanted to say that it was something he wanted, but not in this way. How could he say it at this moment where the entire continent was watching him? What could he even say?

I immediately brought my hands together to my chest and opened my mouth in a desperate voice.

“You… You must overcome this, Commander. You can overcome it.”

—Damn…

“You can fight the demon. Didn’t you tell me! Didn’t you say that you will overcome and that you will fight with us for the light?!”

I shed tears.

‘It’s our Hyejin’s screen debut.’

I needed to put some more emotion into it.

“Please… sniff… please come back, Commander… you must overcome it! You need to bring back that little light in your heart.”

He probably knew that he couldn’t help it either.

Just as expected, he started acting quietly.

‘Why are you so embarrassed?’

—I have already been engulfed in darkness, Light’s Chosen Daughter.

He apparently didn’t have any talent for acting.

—D… Daaamn… damn… sh*t…
