"Hahahahaha!"
Kaneff burst out laughing so loud that his throat could be seen.
It was very rare to see him laugh this hard.
"Ugh, don't laugh, Boss!"
He gasped, unable to hold back a leaky laugh, even after hearing my call of embarrassnt.
"You what!! You made him do the repair cause you didnt know he was Lord of Schnarpe, right?"
"Yes."
"Good job."
What.?
Its his fault for coming without prior notice. If he wanted to be treated well, he should have done it right and earned it. Hahaha!
Lord Schnarpe kept smiling quietly despite Kaneff's outspoken remarks.
Although I heard it in the past, the two really seed to be personally close.
"Sorry, my lord. I couldn't recognize you because I didn't have enough insight. Moreover, as soon as you visited the farm, I made you do sothing like repairing the storage."
Lord Schnarpe waved his hand as if saying he was really okay.
"Mr. Kaneff is right. There is also my fault for not contacting you in advance. So you don't have to worry about the past."
He said he was fine, but I couldn't easily raise my head.
A guest ca to the farm, and I made him run an errand.
"And I looked at the storage problem because it was my son who made a basic mistake in designing the circuit. It was sothing I, his father, had to clean up."
When Lord Schnarpe ntioned the storage facility problem as a basic mistake, Andras, who was next to , flinched greatly and looked anxious.
"When the Lord says so, I think my heavy heart is a little lighter. Thank you for your consideration."
"Don't ntion it I'll greet you properly this ti. Im Esbern Haran Schnarpe of the Schnarpe family."
"I'm Lim Sihyeon who was bestowed with the na Sihyeon Lefre Cardis by the Great Lord."
I formally exchanged greetings with Lord Schnarpe.
As we talked, I naturally looked at him.
Andras really looked like his father
The more I looked at Lord Schnarpe, the more I felt like I was looking at Andras.
It would be natural for a son to resemble his father, but this was not at that level.
The way of speaking, physique, atmosphere, and clothes, everything was almost indistinguishable, and there was only a slight difference in the shape of the horn, the voice, and the degree of fine wrinkles on his face.
By the ti I finished greeting Lord Schnarpe, Andras ca up to my side and muttered.
"Sihyeon, after spending all these days together how can you get confused between and my father? I'm a little disappointed."
"I'm sorry, Andras. How am I supposed to tell the difference? When looked from the back, anyone would think it's Andras!"
"Um."
I will make sure not to make a mistake next ti.
I comforted Andras by vowing to distinguish between him and his father next ti.
After a while, when the atmosphere beca normal, Kaneff, who was sitting crooked, spoke to Lord Esbern.
Well, what brings you here?
It's not like you to co without contacting first. The guy who asked not to go anywhere without entourage has co here, alone is there sothing urgent?"
Kaneff omitted the cumberso greeting and imdiately got to the point.
Lord Esbern also responded normally to Kaneffs rude way of speaking.
"As Mr.Kaneff said, I would have contacted you in advance if it was usual, but I couldn't contact you in advance this ti because of circumstances."
"Yes. There's a problem within the family. I don't think it's going to be easy to fix with my strength alone."
Not only Kaneff's but Andras' face also hardened slightly.
What kind of problem is one that the Schnarpe family which has a long history in the Demon World cant handle.
Although there are many things I don't know about aristocratic society, I basically know that the Schnarpe family is one of the top five in terms of influence alone, in the Demon World.
"Sothing that the Lord of Schnarpe can't handle? I dont think there are that many things in this world that the Schnarpe family can't handle?"
Kaneff asked Lord Esbern exactly the question I had in my mind.
Lord Esbern replied with a slightly darkened look.
"Thats right. In the Demon world, there are not that many things that we, the Schnarpe cant handle."
".?"
"If it is in this world"
Kaneff frowned at Lord Esberns words. He even corrected his posture, understanding the seriousness of the situation.
"Explain in detail,"
Lord Esbern sighed quietly and continued his explanation calmly.
"Do you happen to rember my second child?"
"Second child?"
After a mont of thought, Kaneff quickly answered as if he rembered sothing.
"Oh, I rember! You had a late kid out of the blue, didn't you?"
Ahm
"You and Andras kept showing off the baby so much that I avoided you guys for a while. Is it that second child?"
"Hmm"
Lord Esbern coughed with a little embarrassnt, and Kaneff said right before he could say anything else
"Well, anyway, what happened to that child?"
"Shesmissing."
".?"
"She was definitely in the family mansion a few months ago. But, recently when I checked her, she was gone."
Huh?
I felt sothing strange and opened my mouth reflexively.
"Excuse , Lord Esbern. I'm sorry to interrupt. If your daughter was in the family's mansion, how can you know she was missing only after a few months? Can't you tell she's gone in a day or two at the latest?"
Lord Esbern answered my question calmly.
"I guess you dont know much about our family, Lord Cardis. It's common for all the mbers of the Schnarpe family to research and produce sothing. My children and I have separate workshops designed for us to work in our house.
Separate Workshop?
Yes. When we have so inspiration, we often lock ourselves in the Workshop.
"Then, don't you guys co out at all? What about the al?"
"We stack the necessary food separately in the Workshop. When you're inspired, even eating is often a hindrance."
"Huh."
I thought it was just Andras who loved workshops but it seems like the whole Schnarpe family was like that.
"So, this ti, I thought my daughter was just working a little longer. Only when I checked her workshop recently, I found that she had left the mansion. That too, a long while ago."
Andras who felt anxious hearing the situation barged in.
"Didn't she just sneak out of the mansion, like what she used to do before?"
"I wouldn't have co here if she had done that. It wouldnt have been a big deal if she had just sneaked out of the mansion."
I don't know what kind of person she is, but, considering the stories Im hearing, she doesn't seem like a normal one.
Kaneff, who listened carefully to what Lord Esbern was saying, opened his mouth again.
"But you found a clue, didn't you? I'm sure you didn't co to for help without any clues, did you?"
Esbern nodded.
"That's right. I personally researched that girl's workshop. I looked at the data and the devices that were left, and it seed that she had been working on dinsional magic."
"Ah! Co to think of it, she once asked for advice on dinsional magic. I rember being bewildered because it was a pretty high-level question"
Andras added testimony to Lord Esberns words.
As Andras said, that girl seems to have done research on quite a high-level topic. To be honest, I was even shocked when I saw the remaining research data."
"Hmm"
Does that an your daughter studied dinsional magic and left sowhere?"
"Father, you an?"
"Yes. And when I put together the data left behind, that child is"
Lord Esbern turned and looked at .
Lord Cadis.
?
I think that child has headed to your world.
What??
I spoke in surprise at Lord Esberns words.
Kaneff made a grim look, and Andras groaned.
"But, hold on a second. Wasn't dinsional doors sothing that only Angels can create?"
Andras answered my question.
"We can't create a dinsional door as stable as the one the Angels does, but it's also possible for the Demon to create a dinsional door and simply go beyond dinsions. Of course, it takes a lot of complex theories and a lot of preparations.
"Does that an Andras sister made a dinsional door and went to Earth?"
"Honestly, I can't believe it either. It's never easy to jump dinsions and move to another world. Most importantly, you need to know the exact coordinates of a place on the other side to do that. I dont know how she got that."
"She seems to have gotten the coordinates rather easier than you think."
Lord Esbern pulled sothing out of his wide sleeve similar to Andras.
"Huh? Isnt that the artifact that Andras gave when I was selected for the Angel mission?"
"Why is father"
I found it in that girls workshop.
Lord Esbern ripped off the outer cover of the artifact he took out.
The complex mana circuit inside the artifact was visible, and he pointed to one corner of the interior with his hand.
Of course, Kaneff and I looked puzzled because we had no idea what it ant.
Andras, on the other hand, focused on the circuit in the corner.
After a while, Andras, who had been looking at the circuit for a long ti, muttered with a look of disbelief.
"When on earth did she do this"
"I was surprised, too. I didn't expect that child would use such a clever trick
"Andras, whats going on?"
Andras muttered to my question with a blank look.
"When I was preparing this artifact for Sihyeon, I got so help from my sister. And, I think my sister added a magic circuit to that artifact without my knowledge."
"What?"
"Yes. Magic to store the coordinates of places on the other side. Maybe she used this to get the coordinates of the Earth."
Judging from the reactions of Andras and Lord Esbern, they didn't seem to have noticed her plans at all.
While I was admiring the ticulousness of deceiving her parents and brother, I suddenly thought of sothing and trembled.
"Hold on a second. If she had really gone to Earth, wouldnt the Angles have tracked her? They hate this kind of thing."
"That's right. If those guys knew about this, they would co running like hounds. And they'll catch her and try to punish her according to those fu*king rules."
Andras's face turned pale at Kaneff's insensitive remarks. But, Lord Esbern opened his mouth with a calm expression.
"I talked to Ryan yesterday. He said there was no particular movent on the Angel side. It seems like after arriving on Earth, that child seems to be hiding well so far."
"I don't think she went there thoughtlessly. Shes a child whos not only talented but also smart."
"So how are you going to catch the runaway colt?"
Lord Esbern and Andras's eyes naturally turned toward .
"Lord Cardis, Please help ."
"SIHYEON!"
Oh I thought it would be like this.
After the Barbatos family, its the Schnrape family.
I dont know why I keep getting dragged into other peoples problems.
Im definitely cursed
