About three minutes before Lise found Kaine coming out of the won’s bathroom, she looked around.
‘Where is Young Master? I don’t see him.’
There were only nobles chatting in the banquet hall, and Kaine, who had gone to the bathroom, was nowhere to be seen.
‘… He’s taking too long.’
Normally, she wouldn’t be too worried, but after what happened earlier, it was natural to feel concerned.
Lise decided to go to the bathroom near the banquet hall, just in case.
-Stomp, stomp.
As she arrived at the bathroom, she heard soone coming out.
But sothing was off.
The sound should have co from the n’s bathroom, not the won’s.
‘Why is it coming from the won’s bathroom?’
It could have been soone else, but she had a feeling that it wasn’t.
And indeed,
“Huh?!”
The person who ca out of the won’s bathroom was none other than Kaine.
Lise’s eyes widened in surprise, and she asked,
“Young Master, why are you coming out of there?”
Kaine tilted his head in confusion, then suddenly realized where he had co from.
“Huh?!”
His pupils dilated in surprise.
Apparently, he hadn’t realized where he had co from.
Kaine quickly explained,
“So, I didn’t know I was coming out of the won’s bathroom. I swear I’m telling the truth.”
“Hmm…”
Kaine’s flushed cheeks indicated that he wasn’t lying.
She nodded and waved her hand, signaling him to co over.
“Yes, I understand, Young Master. But can you co here for a mont?”
As Kaine approached her, Lise carefully examined his body.
“Lise?”
She gently touched his body, then sighed in relief.
“Phew… Fortunately, you don’t seem to be injured. I was worried that you might have been hurt.”
“Huh? Why would I get injured in the bathroom?”
“Well, there was a terror attack just now.”
“…”
Kaine glared sharply, thinking,
‘That bastard Andrew, causing a terror attack!’
If Andrew heard this, he would probably faint.
Kaine asked with a seemingly innocent expression,
“Was it the Cult again?”
“Yes, it was.”
“Cowards…”
At that mont,
[The Goddess of happiness finally realizes that you’re crazier than she imagined.]
Happiness sent a ssage, realizing Kaine’s true nature.
Kaine ignored her ssage and looked at Lise with concern.
“Anyway, are you or anyone else injured?”
“Fortunately, no one is seriously injured. Well, except for Kim Soo-yong, but I don’t care about him.”
Lise’s voice was indifferent, still upset about what happened at the hideout.
If they hadn’t gone to the bug space, both her and Kaine would have died.
“Fortunately, no one is seriously injured. Let’s go back now. The royal family and knights will be here soon to handle the situation.”
“Yes, let’s go.”
So, the two of them quickly returned to the banquet hall, not wanting to cause any misunderstandings.
.
.
.
anwhile, Happiness was…
“Hmm…”
She sighed deeply and stared intently at the screen.
The royal family was handling the situation at the banquet hall, and Kaine, who had caused the trouble, was casually joining them.
“I don’t know what to do about this.”
Before today, Happiness had thought that Kaine was a kind and ordinary person.
However, after witnessing his actions today, it was clear that he was neither kind nor ordinary.
‘How can he use Demonic magic power? And how did he escape from the top-tier barrier?’
Ange and Mira were different from Rain and Lisana, as they were Saintesses who had awakened for a long ti.
And Ange, in particular, was a Saintess of a different caliber.
It was almost impossible for a mortal to escape from such a barrier.
‘Only transcendents like us could do that easily.’
But Kaine, who wasn’t a transcendent, had effortlessly escaped from multiple top-tier barriers.
And he didn’t even use a transfer scroll; he had opened a dinsional portal.
‘Did Dinsion do sothing?’
But that didn’t make sense, as Dinsion had said at the eting that she was looking for traces of this world’s inhabitants who had the sa souls as the people from the other world.
So, it was absurd to think that Dinsion had done sothing to Kaine, who had been in this world from the beginning.
‘What is going on…?’
As Happiness stared at the screen with a suspicious look,
“Hey.”
A sharp voice ca from behind her.
Happiness turned around, and the person she saw was none other than…
“Fate?”
Fate, who had been impersonating Andrew so well, was now staring at Happiness.
Happiness tilted her head in confusion.
“You don’t usually co here, do you?”
“Well, that’s true, but what’s your intention?”
“What do you an?”
Happiness asked, not understanding her question.
Fate narrowed her eyes.
“You threatened Kaine earlier, and now you’re staring at him. It’s suspicious.”
“I said that because you were doing sothing strange. I need to know the reason.”
“…”
From an outsider’s perspective, it could be seen as a simple terror attack, and there was nothing wrong with that.
After all, even Happiness had felt a sense of unease before Kaine explained the situation to her.
“Okay, that’s one thing. But why are you staring at Kaine now? You usually only watch over your Saintess, and you don’t even send ssages often.”
“Hmm… When did you beco so interested in ?”
Fate spoke sharply, and Happiness sighed deeply.
“Hmm… Well, he’s handso, isn’t he?”
“Huh?”
Fate was taken aback by Happiness’s unexpected words.
Happiness continued,
“Isn’t this a good enough reason? I thought Kim Soo-yong was handso, but now that I see Kaine in person, he seems even more handso.”
“…”
Fate glared at Happiness with icy eyes.
Happiness smirked and said,
“I was just joking.”
She was toying with Fate, and Fate frowned.
‘That’s why I don’t like dealing with her.’
She was inflexible when it ca to important matters, but she was playful and mischievous in other situations.
‘I really want to punch her.’
Happiness seed to sense Fate’s thoughts and shrugged, then said in a serious tone,
“Well, that’s enough joking around. The reason I’m interested in this man is not just because of his looks, but also because of his power.”
“Power?”
“Why are you pretending not to know? You know that the power he’s displaying is not sothing a mortal can possess.”
“…”
Her words were true.
Until now, Fate hadn’t paid much attention to Kaine’s power, but…
‘The power Kaine is using is not sothing a mortal can possess.’
From opening dinsions to using Demonic magic power, aura, and magic at the sa ti.
Yes, the power Kaine was using was…
“You’re also thinking the sa thing, aren’t you? That Kaine is using power like us transcendents.”
“…”
He was too similar to the Goddess.
Ignoring Fate’s silence, Happiness continued,
“Well, the other two Goddess might not care much about this, but you should be more careful. I understand that he’s not a bad person, but you should have paid more attention.”
“Yes, I won’t deny that. So, what do you want to do? Do you want to kill Kaine?”
Fate spoke with a chilling aura, and Happiness shook her head.
“Why would we kill him? He seems a bit strange, but not a bad person. Anyway, I just wanted you to think about it. I’ll also keep an eye on him for a while.”
“Okay, as long as you don’t harm Kaine, it’s fine. And I’ll also think about it.”
“Huh?”
Happiness seed surprised by Fate’s response.
Happiness tilted her head and said,
“I thought Dinsion might be involved. After all, the power to open dinsions is sothing only Dinsion and the Grand Duke can use, and it requires a lot of power.”
Indeed, Fate’s words were true.
The power to open dinsions was sothing that only Dinsion and the Grand Duke could use.
If Dinsion had interfered, she would have given them a heads-up.
“Hmm… No matter how much I think about it, I can’t find an answer. Anyway, I was just being mischievous. I felt left out, and the three of you seed to be having fun, so I wanted to stir things up a bit.”
“It’s not like that. Don’t worry. As long as you don’t do anything to Kaine, it’s fine. I’ll be going now.”
Fate disappeared from view, and Happiness narrowed her eyes.
‘It seems like the man she was interested in at the eting was Kaine.’
Happiness felt left out, so she pouted and stared intently at Kaine on the screen.

A few hours after the terror attack in the capital,
Andrew quickly returned to the Cult’s hideout.
He wanted to check on Jade as soon as possible.
‘Let’s quickly check on that guy.’
Soon, Andrew arrived at his destination and gathered all the high-ranking mbers.
“All high-ranking mbers are present.”
The high-ranking mbers of the Cult hurriedly knelt on one knee.
At the sa ti,
“We’ve heard the news, Andrew-nim.”
Jade, kneeling on one knee, spoke with an emotional voice.
Simon added,
“You personally went to the capital and caused a terror attack, dealing a blow to them.”
“As expected of Andrew-nim…”
Finally, Robert smiled with wrinkled eyes.
‘Huh? What? I didn’t do that.’
Andrew was surprised to be misunderstood by the three of them.
Even Jade, who usually didn’t show much emotion, was emotional.
Despite causing a terror attack in the capital and impersonating Andrew,
“We will only follow Andrew-nim!”
“With Andrew-nim, we can create a new world!”
“Our boss, who will fulfill our dreams!”
The three of them praised Andrew with fanatical eyes, as if they had taken a drug.
Andrew tried to hide his confusion and said,
“Yes, just trust .”
The three of them seed to be the only ones confused, while Andrew was trying to maintain his composure.
As a result, Kaine’s plan succeeded in confusing Andrew and making him suspicious of Jade.
