53.

I had made plans to connect Perioze’s Sister with Lloyd, and Caroline with Greim, but at this rate, I might end up falling for Theor myself.

I walked along the walking trail following Theor, stealing glances at him who seemed determined to enchant people.

“Ah, I think it would be better to summon Pandeum to explain.”

Theor suddenly seemed to remember something as he looked down at me and spoke.

Due to our considerable height difference, my neck hurt a little from looking up at him like that.

“Pandeum?”

“Yes. Even though Crown Prince Lloyd knows the truth, to make Greim, the Princess, and Countess Triaize understand properly when they don’t know everything, I think it would be better to show them Pandeum and explain rather than just using words.”

“Ah, you mean the fact that I was from another world?”

Theor nodded repeatedly in response to my question.

“Wasn’t that something even Crown Prince Lloyd couldn’t easily believe? It would be difficult to convince them that Elinea isn’t the original Elinea in the first place.”

“For something like that, Theor understood quite quickly though.”

“I received Pandeum’s memories directly, so I couldn’t help but understand. I even saw the original you die.”

At Theor’s words, my steps unconsciously stopped.

“You saw that too?”

Theor also stopped walking and nodded toward me.

“I read all of Pandeum’s memories regarding Elinea.”

“Ah… Then you must also know that I died from my best friend’s betrayal while being falsely accused of my dark magic being evil sorcery.”

As soon as I summoned Pandeum here, I had explained about the possession and my best friend killing me, so naturally he would know that too.

Theor nodded, confirming he knew.

“Do you know… the reason?”

“Which one? Why my best friend killed me?”

“…Yes.”

“Well. Thinking about it now, there must have been some circumstances that warranted it…”

My best friend, who was also a dark mage, wouldn’t have killed me without reason.

Moreover, until I died, our position was becoming increasingly narrow due to the nobles and tower people who wanted to classify dark magic as forbidden sorcery, so even to reverse that situation, they shouldn’t have killed me.

But whatever the case, they killed me with their own hands, and because of that, I’m now inside this book.

I suddenly wanted to ask why they killed me if I ever met that person again, but strangely, my resentment toward that person whose name or face I couldn’t remember at all had considerably subsided.

Why bother with someone I can barely remember?

“Anyway, these memories have faded so remarkably that I think God is telling me to forget my original memories since they’re unnecessary.”

“…Well, it’s better to forget bad memories anyway.”

Theor smiled at me, saying it was fortunate if I wasn’t troubled by past betrayals.

Thump thump. Thump thump.

At his smile, my heart began beating noisily again.

I didn’t know for sure, but I felt like the reason my past anguish had disappeared so easily was all because of my favorite, Perioze’s Sister, and Theor.

I started walking again and said to Theor.

“As a result, I died and came here, possessing this body, meeting Perioze’s Sister and spending time with Theor like this, so I don’t feel wronged.”

“That’s fortunate too.”

Theor smiled brightly at me.

“What is this unpleasantly-looking guy?”

Perioze’s Sister said upon seeing Pandeum that I had summoned.

As soon as Perioze’s Sister was summoned, she twitched her eyebrows asking where this was, then looked displeased at Pandeum who was sitting next to me, in the seat where she should have been sitting.

“What? Unpleasant…! Master, this human’s eyes are strange. Isn’t there a physician here? This person seems to be on the verge of blindness.”

“How dare you speak of blindness after seeing my clairvoyance, your thoughts are as unpleasant as your appearance.”

At Perioze’s Sister’s cold words, enhanced by her basic villainess buff, Pandeum’s face contorted.

With an expression that seemed to say ‘what is all this,’ I smiled awkwardly and said to Perioze’s Sister.

“This is the summoned creature I mentioned. His name is Pandeum, and he’s the king of Pandemonium, the summoned creature village from where I originally was.”

At my words, Caroline, Greim, and Lloyd looked at Pandeum with quite curious expressions, while Perioze’s Sister dismissed him saying, “A king? This thing?”

I knew well that this was because Pandeum had sat in Perioze’s Sister’s seat before she could sit next to me.

“An impudent human. A human I don’t want to associate with.”

Pandeum twitched his eyebrows frantically and voiced his displeasure.

Pandeum had excessive superiority complex about his humanized form, so he thought all females who weren’t smitten with him had something wrong with their eyes.

That’s why he always said my eyes were strange too and that I should get treatment from a physician.

Being such a creature, he would find Perioze’s Sister, who looked at his handsome appearance with a serious expression and showed clear dislike, extremely disagreeable.

Pandeum did have a very beautiful face originally.

In the world I used to live in, there were even sayings that no man was better than Pandeum.

But now, with Lloyd who looked gorgeously and beautifully crafted by god himself, Theor with his cold and cool masculine charm, and Greim whose ascetic image of faithfulness and kindness was perfectly complemented by glimpses of decadence, there were too many outstanding guys, so Pandeum’s beauty had lost its edge.

“I don’t particularly want to associate with you either, so move from my seat.”

Perioze’s Sister gestured toward Pandeum with her characteristically arrogant and haughty expression.

Pandeum asked me what I was thinking possessing such a bizarre place, saying this was the first human to treat him this way.

“It’s not like I wanted to do it. I think the original owner of this body also died at the same time I died. The timing matched, so I think I entered this body.”

I added that since I died so suddenly, it seemed like God worked hard to bring me back to life.

Of course, that was just my hypothesis; I don’t know the exact reason why I’m in this body.

When I said it might have been coincidence, Pandeum snorted.

“Hmph, how foolish. This is about a soul transferring to another human’s body. Such things can never happen by coincidence.”

“Then, are you saying God deliberately made me possess this body?”

“Of course. Master, you must have something you need to do in that body. God is a rationalist who calculates even such things and moves situations accordingly.”

As I slowly nodded at Pandeum’s words and muttered “I see,” Caroline asked.

“So, you’re saying the real Elinea is… not…?”

Still finding it hard to believe, Caroline’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked at me.

“When… since when…?”

“The exact timing was when I got slapped by Perioze’s Sister.”

I couldn’t remember the countess’s name exactly, but anyway, it was at a tea party.

At my words, Perioze’s Sister’s face instantly hardened.

Pandeum, who didn’t miss Perioze’s Sister’s expression, looked at me and gestured toward her.

“Don’t tell me the human who slapped your cheek is that human?”

“Can’t you send this one back now? This mountain-sized thing is occupying my seat and making things chaotic.”

At Perioze’s Sister’s words, I looked at Pandeum with an “ah.”

Then, instead of me, Theor spoke.

“I thought having Pandeum here would make it easier to understand Elinea’s secret. But since everyone seems to believe without much doubt, I’ll send Pandeum back now.”

“Hey, I…”

Before Pandeum could finish speaking, Theor rubbed his thumb and middle finger together making a snapping sound, and Pandeum instantly disappeared.

“How did you do that?!”

I asked with wide eyes at this summoning dismissal method I had never used.

“When we first made the contract, he told me to decide on it. So…”

“Ugh…”

Having never decided on such a thing, I had just told him to go back or simply left him to return on his own.

What, I should have sent him back that way too.

“Then, what about summoning?”

“Similarly, I channel dark attribute into my thumb and middle finger.”

Theor, who had snapped his fingers, said he hadn’t channeled dark attribute into his hand just now.

Wow…

I had been summoning by drawing blood from my finger to draw that complex summoning circle, but Theor, who made a contract with Pandeum much later than me, could call Pandeum just by snapping his fingers.

This felt somewhat unfair, so I thought I should summon him that way too and concentrated dark magic into my right hand.

And I struck my thumb and middle finger together.

But.

“Huh? I can’t make the snapping sound…?”

I didn’t know how to snap my fingers.
