Chapter 39 – Is Kiehl Okay?

March 1163.

The time Bella has been waiting for had come, just when Kiehl went on a journey.

“Never pretend to know Kiehl. No one.”

She made numerous requests. From the moment she planned to kidnap him, she repeated this every day.

“Never let Kiehl know of our existence.”

Even though everyone replied yes, Bella was still terrified.

“If the day comes when anyone is found out, I will give you the most novel death penalty in the history of the demon realm.”

“…Yes, everyone knows. Stop it, Miss.”

“Jen, I believe in you, but at least, I don’t believe in Zanbar and Pur.”

He also agreed with Bella, so he didn’t answer any further. Even talking about it for ten more years, they were demons who would act arbitrarily.

“Jen, because I trust you the most. I’ll entrust you with the most important task.”

“…Aren’t you entrusting me with the most difficult thing?”

“Watch Kiehl from afar from the Imperial Palace.”

Hearing her words, Jenkins cleared her throat and asked Bella again.

“Me…?”

“Why?”

“Oh, no. It’s about the Young Master, so I thought the Miss would do it herself. All right.”

That was true. Although she wanted to see how big Kiehl was, she resisted.

Bella sighed as she watched her hands become increasingly transparent. It was time for her to return to the underworld. She should have been summoned earlier, but she was doing her best to prevent it.

‘…We can’t meet anyway, there will be only regrets.’

Thinking so, she patted her pounding heart and made a last check.

“Now, you can’t make a mistake.”

“Yes! Miss!”

“Pur. You’ve lost all your hair dye. Do it again.”

Not knowing when this operation would start, everyone was anxiously waiting in their respective positions.

After a few days of waiting like that, the mail bird had finally arrived from Jenkins.

[ He has departed. ]

Bella was waiting there with the operational headquarters in the middle of the forest, the focal point of all points, to run whenever there was an accident.

‘Please don’t summon me until the end.’

As she climbed to the top of the scenic treetop, where she had a panoramic view of several cities, Bella tried to calm her pounding heart.

“…Okay. Let’s get started.”

She summoned the magic tool into their own virtual space. Bella yelled at the walkie-talkie —she didn’t have a proper nickname, so she decided to call it that— she had practiced several times

“Ah, ah, can you all hear me?”

“Kyaang, I’m so excited!”

“Zzzzzziiikk.”

“I can hear you.”

“I can hear it, too!”

‘Zanbar…’

Even though he practiced so many times, he still didn’t know how to do it right…

“I hear you.”

As soon as Zanbar finished speaking, Bella gave instructions. She held the novel manuscript in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other.

“Now, get a hold of yourself from now on. If even one person does something stupid, we all go to the goal together.”

“Yes!”

“Fur. You can’t speak from now on.”

“Yes!”

“Don’t say it.”

“Yes!”

Bella’s outfit has already been prepared.

Blue was disguised as a teddy bear on the site of the old bandits, and was mixed with other dolls.

In the place where the bandits lived, whatever kind of doll it was, someone needed to directly monitor the situation inside. So, she dyed Pur’s hair, too, and put cute accessories on purpose so that Kiehl wouldn’t notice.

“Do. Not. Talk.”

“Zzz.”

Instead of shrugging ‘yes’ once and ‘no’ twice, she got the answer.

‘They should do well.’

She then decided to check others’ positions once more.

“Jen, where are you now?”

“I keep following the young master from the side.”

“You can’t get caught.”

“Yes. I know.”

Before uttering the following words, she flicked the radio and cleared her throat, hesitating.

“Jen…”

“Yes.

Bella opened and closed her mouth over and over again, moistening his dry lips.

“Is Kiehl okay?”

The occasional noise from the radio disappeared, and silence fell.

Bella bit her lip. Did he notice that they can’t meet? Maybe, it was not hard for him to miss the family members in the mansion.

‘Did he come to the mansion or anything…?’

Even after four years had passed, she was worried that she might be caught up in the past.

“Can’t you hear me?”

“He’s very tall.”

Bella stopped crying at those words.

Although it was invisible, the figure of Kiehl, who must have grown significantly beyond this sound, came to mind. She wanted to ask more, though her throat was too dry.

“He must be bigger than the Miss.”

“….”

“He is very courageous. He seems to be happy.”

Looking up at the sky, she was fanning her face with her hand, struggling.

“He’s happy?”

“…Yes. He is smiling.”

“Sniff.”

Bella glanced at the radio again at the sudden strange sound she heard.

“Hmm… I miss the Young Master.”

“I miss him so much, too!”

For her, she got to say goodbye, but for the mansion family, Kiehl disappeared out of nowhere… They must have loved him a lot, so she was sorry.

“Guys, stop.”

However, now was the time to work.

Just moments later, then came the radio again from Jenkins.

“Lady, I think he’ll be arriving at Daisy soon.”

Zanbar was in charge of the kidnapping.

“Okay. Zanbar, tell the mercenaries to kidnap Rosanne.”

“Yes. And, what shall we do?”

“Just watch from the side.”

Zanbar was the person who had the most significant factor in ruining everything. However, he was perfect as a watchdog for the mercenaries while kidnapping.

Shortly thereafter, Zanbar delivered the news that he had kidnapped Rosanne.

“Okay. Then Zanbar goes to Area 1, Jenkins checks the inn.”

“Yes.”

Now, when Kiehl arrived at the inn, all they needed to do was shed the information that a group of bandits near Daisy had stolen the relic. This was where Iwer enticed several people to talk about it.

‘Because they need to check to see if the relic was right.’

It had been a long time, but since they’re so infamous, many people didn’t know that the group was annihilated. Thanks to that, the holy relic that Bella couldn’t touch was there.

So there was a brief silence.

“This is Zanbar. I’ve been locked up in Operation Area 1.”

“Pur check on Roseanne.”

“Zzz.”

So far, it has been going smoothly.

“I made sure they entered the inn.”

“Okay. Iwer, let’s go. Jen, which inn is it?”

“….”

“Jen. Which inn…?”

‘Could there be any problem?’

Thinking so, Bella hurriedly yelled at Jen, “The inn name is ‘Red Rose.’ It’s the inn we stayed at when we went to the summer festival.”

Again, the radio remained silent.

“Zzzzzz.”

Only Pur, who couldn’t go to the summer festival together, was making a lot of noise. Bella turned her head to Daisy, which seemed far away from her.

‘Summer Festival…’

She also did face painting and walked around wearing clothes to match. She danced with everyone, sang songs, and flew a lantern…

“It was really fun back then.”

At that time, she still vividly remembered Kiehl’s bright smile.

‘You say you didn’t like cute things back then. It was cute.’

The corners of her lips rose happily.

How big was Kiehl that Jenkins was looking at…?

“That’s right. Some of you seriously shut your mouth.”

“Hmm.”

“Iwer, go to work.”

After that, things went well.

Iwer enchanted people and gave them information, and Kiehl and his party decided to go there the next day.

“By the way, the young master is really big.”

Bella hastily summoned Iwer since her mission was over, in case Iwer might approach Kiehl. It seemed that Iwer was really going to do that, and her sad face looked full of regrets.

“You guys… just don’t approach Kiehl.”

“Hiing, I don’t know why not.”

Bella glared at Iwer and focused again.

‘Don’t ruin the original story for nothing, just be still.’

The next day, Kiehl’s party left the inn and headed to the site of the old bandit. The mercenaries that had been placed in advance attacked them as though they were told the way at just the right time, and Jenkins responded with a close eye on them.

“With his current skills, I think he will be able to do 15 people.”

They also identified the personnel to be assigned to the location where Rosanne was kidnapped. She read the novel once more and waited for the first chapter of the novel.

“Come on. It’s important from now on. Get your mind straight. Especially Pur.”

“Zzz.”

After defeating the bandit, Kiehl freed the kidnapped people and found the relic.

“All the mercenaries have fallen.”

“Jen. You must get out of there right away before you get caught.”

“Yes.”

“Need a summon?”

“I will go on my own.”

The room where Rosanne was located was the room with the holy relics. A room that he had no choice but to go in. It felt uncomfortable because Kiehl had been imprisoned there before, although none of them could touch the relic, so there was nothing she could do.

If Bella touched it, she could lose her power and be summoned. She would suddenly become transparent up to her arms.

The role she couldn’t refuse only looked hard.

“Pur, is Rosanne sneaking around at the door?”

“Zzz.”

Fortunately, it seemed to be going the same as the original story.

In the original story, Roseanne knew that someone was coming to the rescue, and with her arms and legs tied, she sneaked in at the door.

When the door was opened, she unexpectedly hugged and kissed Kiehl.

‘And, for taking responsibility for the kiss, she joins the trip…’

After that, it would be out of her hand, and Bella only had to check that part because she killed the bandit who should have kidnapped Rosanne.

“Zzz.”

“Is the door open?”

“Zzz.”
