Thank you for the love April!

What did Lupinus living in the Demon Realm, specifically Greenville Dungeon, have to do with the promises they made earlier? When Adelaide became confused, Lupinus quickly read her mind and continued.

“If I want payback for this and that, of course we have to stay together.”

“Is that so?” Adelaide blinked.

Lupinus swiftly drove in without giving her a chance to think of anything else.

“Besides, half of my blood is from the Demon Realm. So there is no reason not to live in the Demon Realm.”

“That’s true, but…”

Her pink pupils quivered round and round. Lisianthus intervened with the intuition that Adelaide would fall for it if left as it is.

“If the Demon King finds out that we’re hiding a legendary class warrior, he will not sit still. Master, his very existence can cause us great harm.”

“Then as long as we don’t get caught.”

“Just because we don’t get caught doesn’t mean a human can do whatever he wants.”

“You talk a lot about the struggles against a human.”

Spark. An invisible current seemed to flow between Lisianthus and Lupinus. Caladium realized that his speaking skills would not be of much help to Lisianthus, so he chose to remain silent.

“Besides, even though he is a half demon, this person has an incomplete body mixed with human blood. If he continues to live in the Demon Realm, he will inevitably get hurt.”

Lisianthus changed his strategy. He had no intention of worrying about him, but these words would work better to convince Adelaide.

Adelaide nodded her head with a more serious expression on her face. She couldn’t possibly let her first friend whom she just regained get hurt.

“Lupin, I guess—”

“I never said I would stay here forever.”

However, Lupinus was a more formidable opponent than Lisianthus had expected. He cut Adelaide off and declared firmly.

“I know my body best. If it’s too much for me, I will go to Mediar on my own. By the way, I wasn’t asking for permission to live here.”

“I’m just giving you notice.” Lupinus bent his eyes and added brazenly.

Caladium could no longer stand his rude attitude and lost his temper.

“D*mn it, why don’t you scurry along while we’re still being nice? Before I transfer you to Mediar with my own hands.”

He gathered his power in the palm of his hand. If Lupinus doesn’t leave, he would kill him himself.

Then, Lupinus suddenly had a sad expression on his face. He stared at Adelaide with a sullen look and opened his mouth.

“Adela, were you lying when you said that you don’t hate me…?”

“Huh? No, that’s not it!”

‘Why did the conclusion become something like that?’ Adelaide hurriedly shook her hands.

“No, you can’t forgive me so quickly… It’s okay if your demons kill me. I will try harder.” Lupinus said with a heartbroken face.

‘This clever b*stard!’ Caladium was dumbfounded and pointed a finger at him. The j*rk would pass as the human version of Lisianthus.

“Kill, no way! Caladi is just… That’s just the way he talks.”

Adelaide glared at Caladium. It meant that he shouldn’t say harsh words to her friend.

‘But this is really complicated.’ She groaned.

She wanted to stop Lupinus somehow, but his stubbornness was too strong. He was like that since he was a kid, and although it has been a while, it looks like he’s still the same today.

‘As long as he doesn’t die, I don’t think he will leave with his own two feet…’

Trying to stop him now would be useless. Perhaps even if he dies and disappears at the hands of Caladium, he will come back as soon as he revives.

‘For now, I have no choice but to convince him separately.’

Hyu, Adelaide let out a small sigh. Lisianthus had a similar thought, and swung his head back with an exasperated face. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn’t have let Adelaide resolve their misunderstanding. He regretted it belatedly.

“For now… Alright.”

There were mixed feelings in her words. Lupinus’ face brightened noticeably while Caladium’s eyebrows furrowed.

“However, let’s make this clear. If you hurt my subordinates, you have to leave immediately.”

Adelaide drew the line with a cold voice. Lupinus was her precious first friend, but like him, her demons were also very important to her. It was unacceptable to bully her demons under the pretense of being her friend. This is Greenville Dungeon, and Adelaide, the owner of the dungeon, has a duty to protect her subordinates.

“And if you really want to stay here for a while, I want you to apologize for the last attack.”

It was because of a misunderstanding, but from the point of view of her demon family, they almost died without even knowing the reason. He tried to kill them, so how uncomfortable would it be to live in the same space with him.

All of her demons were surprised as they didn’t know that Adelaide would come out so resolutely. The Skeletons and Durahans looked at her as if they were moved, and then they shifted their gaze to Lupinus. There was no way a legendary warrior would apologize to monsters and mid-level demons. They expected the human in front of them to be offended by her orders.

However, as can be seen from the human who announced that he will live in a dungeon, Lupinus was not a person who behaved within expectations. Without any hesitation, he bowed towards the demons.

“I’m sorry.”

Thump thump! One of the skeletons was so startled that it collapsed. The other demons, who would normally pick up their colleague’s bones quickly, stood frozen and showed no signs of moving.

“Am I dreaming?” One Durahan muttered in a low voice. As if proving that it wasn’t a dream, Lupinus apologized again.

“I am very sorry for attacking you. Please forgive me.”

He was even asking for forgiveness. A legendary warrior who fought equally with devils, to them who were only mid level demons! The demons were confused and did not know what to do. Lisianthus maintained a displeased expression, and Caladium clicked his tongue at the absurdity. Only Bell, who had turned into a puppy, nibbled on his remaining strawberries without thinking.

Adelaide struggled fiercely between the rationale that she should act calmly like a dungeon master in this case versus the urge of wanting to exclaim, ‘Oh my gosh, my baby has grown so wonderfully.’

And, like always, her emotions triumphed. ‘So what if he’s a little bit stubborn? His heart is so kind!’ She made a completely biased evaluation.

“Oh my, you are an unexpectedly kind person. I will forgive you.”

“I think he’s handsome just from hearing his voice.” Pia muttered in a gentle voice.

Judging from the atmosphere, it seems that the warrior is also interested in Adelaide, so if he joins Greenville now, a lot of interesting things are sure to happen. It’s been quite interesting so far, but how much more fun would it be if a new man was added?

Pia chuckled, delighted as she recalled the current composition changing to a 3-men harem.

[T/N: If Pia wasn’t blind, she’d probably be reading reverse harem novels like us. XD]

Raham’s pupils trembled violently when he heard the murmur next to him. Ever since they started living together, he felt like he was constantly discovering a side of Pia he didn’t know. However, his discomfort was short-lived because she was unbearably lovely.

Starting with Pia, the other demons smiled awkwardly and accepted his apology. As a result, Lupinus’ Greenville residence was quickly decided.

“Which room should I use? I want to use one that is as close to your room as possible.”

“Yeah, there’s nothing like that. Use the one outside the portal over there.”

Caladium wore a pretentious smile and pointed to the inner portal. The Skeletons using the room outside the inner portal became contemplative and shook their heads left and right. No matter how much he apologized, they didn’t want to share a room with the Legendary Champion.

Lupinus replied with a grin.

“If you don’t have anything like that, I’m okay with sharing a room with Adela.”

“Just like I did in the past.” He whispered skillfully.

If his objective was to provoke Caladium’s temper, then he achieved it. Caladium grabbed the nape of his neck as the heat rose.

“Oh, I don’t mind—”

“You can use that room.” Lisianthus quickly interrupted Adelaide’s words.

Lupinus nodded his head lightly and carried the luggage to the room. It was the room next to Caladium. Apparently, Lisianthus planned to use this crisis as an opportunity to kill Caladium with stress.

As soon as Lupinus disappeared, Adelaide’s demons quickly returned to their rooms. It was because they instinctively felt that they should not be involved in the battle between the two devils and the legendary warrior. The Skeleton Captain forcibly dragged Bell, expecting that the young Bell would act recklessly again. Bell whined saying he would stay with Adelaide, but when he tempted him with something to eat, he quickly gave in.

Adelaide slowly walked and made her way to the room where Lupinus would be staying.

“Lupin.”

She leaned on the door and opened her mouth with her arms crossed.

“What’s the real reason? Your reason for wanting to live here.”

Lupinus said this was repayment for all he had “suffered” at her hands from when he was a child, but he couldn’t possibly do something this dangerous for that reason alone. He must have another purpose.

“…Is it because of our old memories?” Adelaide asked bitterly.

Memories of the past. Those warm memories of spending time together in the cabin. Lupinus probably misses it.

Adelaide also missed those days. But the past is just that, the past. Even if the misunderstanding has been resolved, they cannot go back to that time.

This was not the cabin in Mediar, but the Greenville Dungeon in Sarmand. Adelaide is the owner of that dungeon, and Lupinus is a warrior, not a human child.

“I would be lying if I said no.”

Lupinus answered while sitting on the table. Through the crack in the door, he could see the two devils in the living room listening to the conversation. Heh, he snorted briefly.

“Lupin, I understand, but… I can’t go back to that time. The circumstances… We’ve changed.”

“I don’t want to go back.”

Lupinus got up and strode towards Adelaide.

“As you said, the circumstances have changed, and so have we.”

In no time, he was right in front of her. Adelaide opened her eyes wide and looked up at Lupinus in front of her. He looked more than a span taller than her. He seemed to have really grown a lot.

“I’m trying to win over my first love that I wasn’t able to do before.”
