“You’re already insane. But even if you say you’ve gone more insane, it doesn’t seem like my feelings will change.”
Exactly at that moment.
A phrase I hadn’t seen in a long time vividly came to mind in the air.
70 (As it is)
Status Explanation: He wants you as you are.
Nothing more, nothing less, a concise one-liner.
I opened my mouth in bewilderment.
So, this means…
‘Is this what Hades, or rather, the Demon King is feeling towards me right now?’
I didn’t realize it because the favorability level hadn’t been shown at all. I just vaguely thought it would stay at the dismal number I last saw.
But suddenly, for it to shoot up like this…
“Moreover, what is this content about?”
To like me as I am…
“It’s not an emotion the Demon King would feel.”
I sensed it.
It’s not too late yet. There’s still a chance to bring Hades back.
I slowly opened my mouth.
“Listen carefully, Hades.”
“I am not Hades…”
“Shut up.”
A slightly surprised expression appeared on Hades’ face, but the favorability did not decrease.
“This is the last chance.”
I took a deep breath. The last chance to bring back Hades Kroytner.
If it weren’t for the favorability notification, I might have missed this chance that could be wasted.
“Physical contact didn’t work. My emotions didn’t affect him at all.”
Right now, Hades can feel emotions, but he can’t properly judge what they are.
So, there’s only one answer.
Stimulate his rationality, let him know that he was not originally the Demon King.
“We came to this land together. It was to defeat the Demon King.”
Hades frowned.
“The Demon King? That’s not me…”
“Just listen.”
Fortunately, Hades kept his mouth shut.
“But… I died.”
Hades nodded.
“Yes, you’re someone who came back from death.”
“…I can say that. But the world after death wasn’t the afterlife. I returned to where I originally lived.”
Fortunately, Hades didn’t ask any more questions and listened quietly.
Now it was my turn to ask questions.
“Do you know why I came back here?”
“…Because of me?”
“You know well.”
I smiled, but it was a smile mixed with tears.
“When I saw Hades again, I thought, ‘Ah, it was good to come back.’ Even if I became the Demon King, Hades is still Hades…”
“I’m not that person called Hades.”
Hades responded nonchalantly.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t meet your expectations, but it’s difficult for me to pull that person out of me. After all, we were different individuals from the start.”
“Is it really true?”
I raised my head skeptically.
“Think about it. I hated humans so much, wanted to kill them, so why would I suddenly want to revive them?”
“…”
Hades’ answer came back somewhat slowly.
“I felt there was no need for that.”
“Is that the only reason?”
Hades replied with indifference.
“That’s the only reason. If you want me to say that I didn’t want to slaughter humans because I was human… It’s not like that.”
I nodded.
“That’s not it.”
I squeezed Hades’ hand tightly. Even after becoming the Demon King, his hand was still strong and resilient.
I couldn’t feel warmth from his hand, but in reality, Hades’ body was always cold.
“Hades always protected others. He protected the people, his subordinates, and me…”
Hades didn’t say a word.
He simply listened quietly to what I had to say.
“Think carefully. Earlier, you mentioned that you have to protect this land. Which Demon King has ever protected and cherished the demons? They all used them as disposable tools.”
“…”
Summoning courage in the silence, I raised my head, and Hades’ pupils were trembling slightly.
As if trying to recall something…
“The previous Demon King desired destruction and slaughter. Even if Hades is the Demon King now, understand that he is not the same as the previous one.”
I voluntarily lightly pressed my lips against Hades’.
A cold and bitter taste.
But it was a familiar taste.
Hades showed no reaction, frozen.
“Because… if you only know that Hades is a different being from the previous Demon King, you can surely love him as he, the Demon King, wants to protect and cultivate this land.”
It wasn’t just words to persuade Hades.
If Hades could realize his own uniqueness, I could genuinely love him and stay by his side.
Even if it meant living a lifetime in this remote land.
“…Angelica.”
Finally, Hades called my name.
“I don’t know about other things, but I understand one thing.”
His eyes completely captured me.
“I want to protect you. The previous him… didn’t. He wanted to kill you.”
In Hades’ purple eyes, a glimmer of recognition flickered.
“Yes, I am probably a different being from him.”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
