“Ah… I’m sorry. The reason why I hide my identity is because I don’t want to appear too obvious. Therefore, I hope you can understand my problem.”

“Okay. I see you apologized sincerely. Let’s forget what happened.”

“Eh?” don’t know why, but I couldn’t help but show my surprised expression.

I have to admit, I at first thought this woman was intent on checking me out.

But apparently, this woman, she just wanted to ask why I was hiding my name.

And after that, this woman, she decided to leave where she was.

Unfortunately, before Eris could go any further.

She stopped, subconsciously remembering my origins.

“Ah. I remember. You’re an ordinary person, aren’t you? You come from a very far away place. You’re the savior Saintess. You really remind me of my childhood friend.” said Eris, constantly remembering the person I was when I was little.

For a moment, Eris’s gaze couldn’t help but stay fixed on me.

For now, Eris’ goal is that she intends to check the expression on my face.

If I show even the slightest suspicion, it doesn’t rule out the possibility that my identity will be discovered.

But luckily, I didn’t have the slightest surprised expression on my face.

For me, I know Eris, she is a cunning woman.

Since childhood, Eris, she has been a calculating woman.

With that alone, I couldn’t help but continue to show my caution.

“Really? I’m happy. I’m sure your childhood friend feels very proud of you.”

“I’m proud… I think so. See you again, Mr. Noah. I hope we can meet again another time.”

Without realizing it, I couldn’t stop taking deep breaths.

Maybe it’s true, I can suppress the surprised expression on my face.

But what? The fact I was so nervous wasn’t a lie.

Really, I didn’t even hope that this woman would be willing to find out my origins.

And now, I suspect, Eris, she feels suspicious about whether I am Noah or not.

Still, should I care about this matter?

If I interfere in Eris’ affairs, I can’t help but reveal my identity.

’You’re famous. Even such a great woman is willing to visit you.’ Bellu commented, thinking I was a lucky guy.

From the moment she was around me, she knew I was very famous among upper class women.

In fact, a woman like Eris, she was even willing to personally ask me.

’Is that so? I don’t care. After all, I know I’m an ordinary person.’

’Ordinary people? Heh~. Well, you are an ordinary person.’ even though she intended to scold me, Bellu, she restrained herself.

She knows, realizes that I’m feeling bad right now.

The moment after Eris said I looked like her childhood friend, I continued to show my panic without stopping.

If asked why Bellu noticed my feelings, the reason is clear.

Of course, it’s all because Bellu is a fairy.

As a fairy, Bellu, she can enter me as she pleases.

Even Bellu, she can also notice the heartbeat in me.

With that alone, it wasn’t impossible for Bellu to think I was this woman’s childhood friend.

But she held back, knowing it wouldn’t be good for her to interfere in my business.

…

[Time remaining: 0:01 minutes.]

’Now, let’s prepare to see what the system’s punishment will be like.’ not long after, I decided to lie down from my bed.

Just look, the place where I am now is in the dormitory.

It could say, I’m currently about to prepare to begin the system’s punishment.

Luckily, Ian, he said he was busy doing group assignments.

If he doesn’t come back tonight, that means he chose to stay in one of his classmates’ rooms.

[Time has run out. Punishment begins. The interplay of dreamland and reality is activated. Good luck, master.]

The moment I opened my eyes, I couldn’t help but notice something happening in front of me.

Don’t know why, but I feel like I’ve been sent to a different realm.

Only, I know this place is not earth.

“Barren desert. Red soil. Moon that looks like blood. What is this?” I asked, unable to keep looking around me without stopping.

I have to admit, I thought the place I was in was a much different realm from earth.

If not, why should the sky above me emit red light?

With that alone, is it impossible for me to think this place is another world?

“Sieg! What are you doing? Hurry up and help me! We have to go back now. The general won’t be happy to see us late.”

“Who are you?” unexpectedly, I couldn’t help but notice a man appearing behind me.

Of course, I immediately showed my vigilance without hesitation.

For me, the world I am in now is the most mysterious world.

And again, I also know that I am now in the world of my subconscious.

“Did you forget? I’m Fried! We are the troop of the 23rd rank of the Demon Pillar.”

“Eh? Demon? Could it be… Give me a mirror!” It’s true, what I was afraid of really happened.

“Mirror? Ah. Take this piece of glass.”

When I took the glass shards from this man, I saw my current figure.

Like me when I first got the system, the me now is Noah Asford.

But still, what differentiates me and Noah is the color of the hair.

’Black… But how can I become a demon race army?’ I thought, trying to endlessly ask why the system brought me the world like this.

Isn’t it much better for me to be placed in the human world?

But unfortunately, what I thought only lasted for a moment.

I remembered, realizing the system did this so that I would receive my punishment.

From the start, I knew the punishment from the system was no small thing.

And now, what I thought had happened.

No matter what, I still can’t not carry out my punishment.

“Are you finished? Hurry up and stop your acting. I know you intend to run away again. But don’t worry, that woman doesn’t dare bother you anymore.”

“Woman? What do you mean?”

“I mean, she is the daughter of one of the 72 Pillar Demons.”

“Oh… I understand.” because I didn’t want to think further, I chose to forget what happened.

I felt like I was back to who I was when I was at the academy.

But different from my real life, I know the current me is in the realm beneath my dreams.

With just this, I have to act like nothing happened.

“You’re strange today. Did you hit something?” asked the man named Fried, thinking I looked very strange today.

Usually, when he asks why I haven’t come back.

I always said I wanted to run away, but I failed.

In the end, I couldn’t help but have to be taken back by Freid.

“No. I just don’t feel well.” I replied, intending not to discuss this matter any further.

For now, I want to know what the system’s purpose was in bringing me to a world like this.

If the system’s intention was to punish me, why was I given an identity like Sieg?

Even though I’m curious, I can’t help but carry out my law.

After all, because I was sent to the demon world.

Why not?

Therefore, I wonder what the world of the demon race is like.

*step-* *step-* *step-*

After Fried and I left, I didn’t forget to make small talk.

I want to know, want to know the name of the place where we are currently.

Luckily, Fried, he said this place is a barren desert area.

It could say, where we are now is the place where the war took place.

Maybe because of that, the atmosphere around this place felt very heavy.

From the first time I set foot, I knew this place was filled with countless corpses.

Just look, around this barren desert, there are several skulls scattered around.

“That’s right. Avalery City is His Majesty’s territory. As servants, we must obey our master’s wishes.”

“I see… If I may, how many cities are there in the demon world?”

“I think, there are more than 72? Followed by the main capitals of the demon race. Around 73.”

“Alright. Lastly, what is your point of view regarding His Majesty the Demon Emperor?”

Unexpectedly, Fried’s expression, for a moment, took on a sinister face.

“Sieg, please don’t talk about His Majesty the Emperor in a place like this. Otherwise, we all will inevitably have to be punished.”

“I’m sorry! I didn’t know if talking about the Beginning was a sin.”

Finally, I couldn’t help but take back my words.

I think I’ve gone too far in asking questions.

And now, I almost brought about my and this man’s death.

If Fried hadn’t warned me, I don’t know what I would have done.

But still, I’m curious why talking about the name of the Demon Emperor is taboo?

If the Demon Emperor was the ruler of the demons, why weren’t all his followers allowed to talk about him?

Very weird.

“Hah… Basically, please don’t discuss the Emperor’s matters in front of other demons. Otherwise, you will have no choice but to lose your life.”

“I understand. Thank you for your warning.”

“Never mind. We have to hurry and go back. If not, I’m afraid the general will scold us again.”
