89 the thoughts of the Devil's Children and the Apostles




 As already mentioned, the dwellings of the elves are made of natural materials.
 The materials are mainly wood, and no iron seems to have been used at all.
 It seems that those things haven't changed, although you've learned to live comfortably and you're stuck in it.

 In one of these wooden rooms, Allen was looking out the window at the scene outside.
 From there, he could look out over the square, but not a trace of it remained in his line of sight.
 It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you dismiss it: ......

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this topic.
 As you look up to the sky, you can see a round moon floating in the blackness.

 Perhaps because of the circumstances of being in an elven forest, it seems a little different from the moon you usually see.
 Or maybe it really is a little different because of the location across the space.

You can tell me how beautiful the moon is, if you want.

 The voice I heard caused me to shrug without looking back.
 The reason I wasn't surprised is that I had already noticed.

 But I'm sure they knew that as well.

You're going to be able to find out if you're going to be able to get a good deal more information on the subject.
"It's boring, ...... and we're in a bad situation.
If you say so, yesterday's was more like it, wasn't it? I mean, how did you know that phrase ......? It's not supposed to be in this world.
Well, when I was an apostle, I had a lot of free time on my hands. There was a time when it was like a hobby to collect and read all kinds of stories from all over the world.

 It's not as if she was a literary girl then, but as ...... imagines, she looks surprisingly good.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you.

 Considering the fact that she is also knowledgeable--

"Hmm ...... looks pretty good on you.
Well, a pretty girl is usually a pretty girl, and that alone makes her look good no matter what she does.
"Say it yourself, it?

 It's certainly true, but as usual you have good nerve.
 I'm not going to be able to get a good idea of what I'm going to be doing.

 You're going to be able to have a look at your own personal computer and you're going to be able to have a look at your own personal computer and you're going to have a look at your own personal computer and you're going to have a look at your own personal computer.

I'm sure you're aware that ...... was meant to call for Henriette earlier on, isn't that correct?
You're not wrong. I mean, I'd be a little surprised if you weren't.
I have a feeling that you're not surprised by this, but ...... is okay. And then? What are you going to do by calling Henriette? Don't tell me you're really going to be disreputable today? I think it's a bit too much of a challenger to be in the elven forest: ......
...... Henriette is pretty straightforward, isn't it?
"...... What is?
When you have something you don't want to say or something you don't want to be heard, you talk more.

 It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to find out what's going on.

 It's not only that, but it's also that why Allen asked for Henriette is obvious, and Henriette can't not understand it.

I'm sure you understand, but ...... what I want to ask you is about the demon children who live here.

 Once she said it out loud, Henriette let out a sigh as if she'd given up on something.
 Then she gives you a resentful look, but you can shrug your shoulders and return it.

 I knew from the beginning that I didn't want to say it, but I just couldn't not listen to this.

It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with them.

 The name Percival didn't sound familiar, but it was probably that man's name.
 There is no way that Henriette would have missed the conversation with that man, and she thought he said something to her there.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't hear anything, but I almost didn't, did I? The only reason why Henriette brought them here three years ago to shelter them, and the only reason she got the elves to accept them was to give them a foothold in the world where they could grow up on their own.
I'm sure you've heard a lot about ......, or maybe it's because Percival told you that he knew about it. I'm sure he's a very discreet guy, but I'm sure he liked her, or at least approved of her: ......
It seemed to be in recognition of the fact that I was your friend, so if they recognize me, I guess that means you are.
"I feel like you would have been allowed to do this on your own, but ...... is fine.

 When she said that and let out a breath, Henriette looked at her as if she was ready.
 You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm sure you already know that there are a few things about ...... demons that I didn't tell you about.
"Yeah, I guess so. And?
As I said before, the devil is a rebel against the world. As I said before, they are traitors to the world, which means they must be enemies of humanity living in this world, and they want to take revenge and destroy the world and humanity for different reasons and in different ways. So, no matter how much good sense they have to offer, they will only use and destroy what they have to offer, and surrender is meaningless. That's what the devil is: ......, but there are exceptions. That is - a child born of two demons.
"Hmm? Can the devil have children?
A demon is not a race or anything. It's just that the world knows that. That's why I said you're qualified for it. The only problem is that you can have a child ......
Hmm ...... I'm starting to get a feel for the flow of ......, I mean, is this what you mean? A child born of the devil is perceived by the world as a demon, regardless of his or her intentions,
...... That's right. Those who become demons basically become by their own will, but the children born in this way have no choice. And those who are branded as demons by the world are rightly hated by the world. Good fortune has never been on your side, and the whole world will do its best to kill you. No matter what he thinks. Well, most of them will hate the world as it is, and most of them will die before that.
I guess that's okay.



 It's both ways.
 If the world tries to kill you even though you have done nothing, it is natural to resent the world, and that is right.
 Only a very strong-minded person or a saintly person could still not resent the other person.
 At least that's definitely not what you want in a child.

 And it stands to reason that most will die.
 The probability of a child surviving the world's assault on him/her is zero, and you cannot cling to luck.
 It is natural to die, and yet to survive, it must be too powerful to be called a child.

 Only such a child can survive, and the child who survives will naturally become an honorable devil who hates the world.
 And so such a devil rages and begets children.

"...... is a brilliant vicious circle. That's why the devil is so strong. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that the world has it all figured out, though, would I?
It's more accurate to say that the demons were cunning or couldn't read the world that well. When the demons realized that, they decided to take advantage of the situation. Most will die, but those who survive will be the most powerful demons. Then go to ......
"...... rather actively throwing children into a poor environment?
"That's why

 This is truly a devilish idea.
 The name "devil" is very apt as he would use even his own children, who know nothing of the world, to take revenge on the world.

"Hmm ...... means those kids
...... Well, I found these guys once by accident before they were killed. And I couldn't just let them go.
A former apostle, a rather worldly being?
"I'm just an ex. I don't care.

 It's just as good as you can say that.
 It's really a girl who I would say Allen is the most trustworthy person in the world.

Well, then, I knew about this then. And here we are, just a little bit out of this world. It's more like it happened by accident than it did.
You mean, this and that about the devil?
That's the way it is. So the elves had an advantage. They brought them in and hid them ...... and here we are now.

 Probably quite a bit of it is off the cuff, but for the most part I understand and agree with it.
 There's just one thing I don't understand.

Why didn't you tell me?

 So, there should be no need to hide anything.
 It's something to be proud of.

 Why do you have to hide the fact that you saved an innocent child?

...... It's not that big of a deal. The fact that you didn't say anything is just bragging if you bothered to say it ...... and that's it. It might make you feel bad if you found out you were harboring a demon.

 It's just a matter of overthinking it. ...... Henriette may have thought that because she knows a lot of things poorly.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for, because the devil may have ruined your family's home.

 Allen believes that he had it coming, and those who were responsible for it have already paid for it.
 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. ...... Well, I can't blame you for being concerned.

Well, let me just reiterate that you don't have to worry about that. Oh, or should I just praise her? And that's what we're doing,
...... is not necessary. So, it's not that big of a deal. ...... In the end, I only did it because I didn't like it, and I had no reason to be proud of it. There's no reason to be proud of it, and there's no reason to be praised.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time in the event that you're in a position to do so.
 No, it's more accurate to say that ...... has been said.
 And of course I remember what it said in return.

 Not to be proud of, not to be praised, but to be able to follow your heart and do that kind of thing as a matter of course, that's why you deserve to be called a hero.
 Thinking back to those words and wondering what it would be like to say them now, Allen's smile deepened as he thought about them.
