The Aftermath 1

After the army caught Kurt, the teacher told everyone that there would be a two-day break since what had happened was too shocking, and no one would ever think that a devil would appear in the academy.

Luckily, the devil was caught, and no one was hurt. Still, as expected, there was no way to keep this a secret, and everyone knew that the devil had appeared, which was why the academy told the students to take a break for two days since the parents of the students were worried about their safety.

Haru, Yuri, and Lynn also went back together, but Lynn went back to her home. After all, the appearance of a devil was too shocking, and Lynn's parents wanted her to return first, asking what had happened.

Haru knew that he also needed to meet Lynn's parents, but at the same time, he also knew that he had also wronged Lynn. After all, Lynn was his mistress. If he wasn't punched or killed by her father, then it would be a miracle. After all, as a man, he also understood that no one wanted their daughter to become someone's mistress, but as a man, he knew that he needed to meet Lynn's parents and needed to tell her to believe in him to take care of their daughter.

Lynn was quite shy and told him not to hurry since she also knew that even though she didn't mind their relationship, her parents were different, and she told him to take it slowly.

After kissing each other, only Haru and Yuri left, and both of them returned to their house. And as expected, Yuri's family came to ask what had happened in the academy. After all, everyone in the kingdom had bad memories of the devil.

"Bad memories?" Haru looked at Yuri's father curiously.

Mr. Carlton nodded and said, "In the past, this kingdom was almost destroyed by a devil, and it is because of the Wise Man, Merlin Wolford, and the Guru, Melinda Bowen, that this kingdom is saved, and because of that, everyone thinks of them as a hero." He was, after all, a big fan of both the Wise Man and the Guru, and if Haru wanted to ask him, he could tell him a story for a day straight without a break.

"I see..." Haru nodded and understood why the people of the Earlshide Kingdom revered both the Wise Man and the Guru this much, and even his father-in-law was also their fan which made him helpless.

'But a hero, huh?'

Haru felt that this title of hero was very vague, and even though they were revered, this title didn't have that much use, or rather, in his mind, this title was similar to a nuclear bomb. After all, a hero was strong, and even if there was an army, no one could stop a hero who wanted to kill someone, right?

Still, at the same time, the title of the hero was also troublesome since it could attract everyone's attention easily, whether it was people or an enemy, that title would attract all of them, but at the same time, this title was good for him since the louder his deeds were, the better his reputation and it would be easy for him to become the president of the Els Federation of Free Commerce.

"Still, I have heard that you're the one who has defeated the devil. Is that true?" Mr. Carlton asked with eyes of amazement, staring at his son-in-law. And he was glad that he had a beautiful daughter, and because of that, she could get him such an awesome son-in-law. Not only was Haru a council of the Els, rich, handsome, and then he was also strong, and for the first time, Carlton knew that God was unfair.

Yuri was smiling and hugged Haru's arm since she was also quite proud of Haru's deeds.

"It's not me. The one who has defeated it is the Wise Man's grandson, Shin Wolford. During the battle, I was just his support," Haru said.

"Yes, the one who has defeated the devil is Shin Wolford."

Mr. Carlton nodded and understood why Haru didn't want to admit that he was the one who defeated the demon, or rather he also agreed with Haru to push everything to Shin Wolford. After all, Haru was from a different nation. Those hard-headed people would, without doubt, try to endanger Haru since no one wanted other nations to have a powerful magician. Still, he also didn't need to worry too much. After all, Haru's status was a member of the Els's council, and if something happened to him, the situation might escalate to war between Earlshide and the Els.

"Still, you also need to be prepared since the King might try to get close to you and give you some kind of medal or something," Carlton said.

"Yes, thank you for the reminder, father-in-law," Haru said.

They talked for a while before Carlton, his wife, and Yuri's siblings left them out. After all, they didn't want to be a light bulb for both Haru and Yuri.

When they had left them, Yuri asked, "Haru, you don't want to become a hero?"

"It's alright, whether I receive the title or not, it doesn't really matter, but you should know if I receive one, I'll become more popular. Is that alright with you?" Haru asked with a smile.

"..." Yuri couldn't laugh when she heard Haru's words since she knew that Haru was right. If he became a hero, he would become popular. Then without a doubt, there would be a lot of women around him again. "NO!!!" She hugged him immediately and didn't want him to have too many mistresses.

"You don't need to worry. After all, the decision is still on the King," Haru said.

"Well, that's true." Yuri nodded.

"Let's take a bath, then sleep. A lot of things happen after all," Haru said.

"Um."

---

Haru was on the bed, but he didn't read a book. Rather, he tried to recall Shin's space storage before. He was also able to have open space storage, but he needed to use the power of "Sticky Finger" (Zipper Manipulation) to use it, and he didn't really want to use it in this place since this power was too noticeable. He then visualized space storage, and he was successful in using this magic.

Haru shook his head and had to admit, even though this world was slightly boring, a lot of magic could be developed as long as someone could visualize it, which was why it was great. He rubbed his chin and thought that he should develop his magic more in this world. After all, he was in the academy, and since there was no entertainment besides flirting with a girl, he thought it was good to train.

'Still, Shin isn't that smart, huh?'

Haru had to admit that Shin wasn't that smart. After all, he didn't expect him, trying to defeat Kurt by chopping Kurt's head with a sword, or rather, a sword that was coated by magic.

It wasn't that it was bad, but there was a lot of magic that was better used in that situation. After all, there was no need to kill. For example, Shin could use ice magic to freeze Kurt, use water magic to make a ball of water that could trap Kurt inside, making him drowned, or like him who erased the oxygen around Kurt, which made him pass out immediately, etc., etc.

There were many ways, and there was no need to kill, which was why Haru thought that Shin wasn't that smart.

Haru didn't intend to kill Kurt. After all, this guy was only a weak guy, and he could use his "Heaven's Door" ability or "telepathy" to manipulate Kurt's mind, so this guy would be loyal to him.

"Um... Haru..."

Haru turned his head and couldn't look away since Yuri was standing there shyly while wearing sexy lingerie. He blinked his eyes and, without hesitation, stood up, walking toward her, the kissed her lips since he knew that it was the time for both of them to do it.

Yuri accepted Haru's kiss, then let him lift her body before pushing her to the bed.

Both of them stared at each other for a while before continuing what they were doing, letting go of their everything, and became one.
