The Queen Of The Demon World
108. life between the demon queen and the holy maiden

Ethelyne immediately stood up straight, she leaned over while holding both ends of her dress gracefully. “Greetings, I'm Ethelyne Virgian. Nice to meet you, prince to6.”

“It's nice to meet you too, Lady Ethelyne. I see, you two look similar ya.”

Ethelyne stood up straight and looked at Kathelyne, she turned her gaze towards Eadric and smiled sweetly. “Maybe because we are from the same womb.”

“So, you brothers?” Eadric propped up his chin while staring at the two alternately, if not for the color of his hair and eyes. He couldn't possibly tell which demon queen was and which holy maiden was.

“Yeah, can be considered like that.” Ethelyne looked at Kathelyne who had been staring at Eadric with a flat look. “Oi, kathel.”

Kathelyne glanced at Ethelyne who was whispering. “Hm?”

Ethelyne took a breath. “Didn't you just say that you have to maintain good manners, stare at people blatantly like it's not polite tau!”

“What's up? You jealous?”

“Hah?” Ethelyne looked at Kathelyne in disbelief. “Jealous?? Wh-wh-what for? After all, this is your first meeting, how can you fall in love immediately. Your words are unreasonable, totally unreasonable!”

“Oh.” Kathelyne smiled faintly which inexplicably made Ethelyne feel a bad premonition. “Then why do you look so cold sweaty? Your face also looks red, after all. I'm not saying that you love that human prince.” He glanced at Eadric who seemed to blink with a cute plain look.

“A-what?! No really! My face is fine! Me, I'm sweating because the weather is hot!” Ethelyne frantically explained, but it only made Kathelyne's suspicions stronger.

“Then why did you panic? It's also just my assumptions, I'm not saying that you really like.”

Ethelyne's face turned red. “K-kathel, you are this ..” He smiled forcefully while clenching his hands holding back anger. “You should indeed be taught a lesson!” Ethelyne hit Kathelyne quite hard on the head.

“Either why do you so like to use violence,” Kathelyne said with her sharp look while holding the head that Ethelyne hit.

“Stupid time!” Ethelyne turned her back to Kathelyne while holding her chest, but a second later. With Eadric still sitting in front of the two, Ethelyne immediately bowed respectfully. “Sorry for making Your Majesty see things that are not appropriate.”

“Yes, no problem. Anyway.” Eadric smiled thinly. “Watching the quarrel between the devil and man is really interesting.”

“Well if so.” Ethelyne stood up straight and looked at Eadric seriously. “What's the matter until you both call me back?” tanyanya formal's.

“Well, you can ask the Demon Queen.”

Ethelyne turned her gaze towards Kathelyne who seemed to support her chin while closing her eyes. “Kathel.”

“I called you here because I wanted to discuss something.” Kathelyne opened her eyes and glanced at Ethelyne. “This relates to your next self.”

“About me? But why?”

“You can't stay in the demon palace any longer.”

“Eh?!” Ethelyne looked at Kathelyne in shock. “But why? Is it because I am being disrespectful? But we are brothers, after all. If I don't live in the demon palace, then I won't have a place to stay anymore.”

“Can't in the upper world you stay with other spirits?”

Ethelyne glanced in the other direction. “I ... don't want to go back there again.”

“Hm, why?” ask Eadric kepo.

“No special reason.” Ethelyne tilted her head while looking at Eadric with a faint smile. “I just ... feel sick of being in the world above.”

“Oh, so yes.” Eadric was silent for a moment. “Then, just continue the previously delayed conversation.”

“I understand, Prince to6.”

Kathelyne was silent and closed her eyes.

“Boho~ I threw away,” muttered Ethelyne with a sad look in a crouch while making a circle on the ground with his index finger. “I'm no longer needed, boho~ I've been dumped.”

“Hah, haven't I explained? I didn't mean to throw you away,” said Kathelyne who had been standing behind Ethelyne leaning and chest-scaping.

“Oi, your eyes will enter sand!” Kathelyne flicked her finger, a medium-sized water ball appearing in front of Ethelyne. “Wash your hands.”

Ethelyne turned towards Kathelyne, her eyes looking teary. He put his hand in the water and rubbed until the ground in his hand was gone, after which. Kathelyne flicked her finger again and made the water ball disappear.

“I really don't care about other people's talk.” Kathelyne let out a long breath. “But you will be troubled if rumors arise that you are cooperating with a demon, let alone a demon queen.”

“But I'm just like you. I don't care about talk-”

“You will appear more often in the human world, different from me. You will be considered as the Goddess who protects them all, while if you are found out you are staying with me. Then maybe they will assume you are working with me and even scorn you.”

“But I-”

“You may not care what people say, but I care. I don't want people like them to talk about the no-no about you, if I hear them booing or talking bad about you. Guess what I'm gonna do to shut their mouths.”

“But ..” Ethelyne lowered his head while playing his fingers.

“Ethel, you know. How valuable you are to me, I'd be so angry if you got the slightest injury. Although earlier mother sealed me, but I clearly remember mother's last words before the air of her existence disappeared.”

“Application ... last?”

“Yes, mom asked me to take care of you forever. Even though our souls are different and our powers are opposite, but to me. You are my best friend, my only brother. Maybe for you the words in front of Eadric just to fool him, but for me ..” Kathelyne squeezed the end of her dress. ‘I don't want to, lose something valuable again. My dead family might not be resurrected, and now all that's left is you and Meli. If you also leave, then my life has no meaning at all. If I could choose, I would have to be-’

Kathelyne fell silent stiff as Ethelyne suddenly hugged her, she did not realize when the girl was standing. But his embrace was so warm that he would not let go.

“Did you forget?”

Kathelyne could feel the teardrops falling on her shoulder.

“If I ..” Ethelyne's voice seemed to tremble, she smiled and made her tears flow even more. “Can read your mind.”

“Sorry.” Kathelyne returned Ethelyne's embrace. “It doesn't make you happy, I make you cry. I really don't deserve to be called big brother.”

“That's not true!” Ethelyne took off her embrace and stared intently at Kathelyne with her puffy eyes. “For me, you are the best sister ever. I'm sorry, too, if it wasn't for me killing Brother Zen and Sister Ryan. Kathel must still have a sibling.”
