Dungeon Hunter (던전사냥꾼)

Chapter 34: Demon World Auction ( 3rd Year )

"Y-Yihihi. Why are you looking at me all of a sudden? Aw ~ I feel hot."

Yihi waved her hand and feigned ignorance. But her rigid facial expression was different from her gestures.

"Tell me calmly."

"That...Yihi...was wrong...hiing..."

Yihi flew and fell on both knees before me.

I would see through any excuses that she made.

Yihi, who was silent, finally spoke.

"That white guy. He brought the flesh. So wasn't Yihi in charge? But he suddenly made me furious. Yihi didn't mean to do it."

That white guy was White.

I heard the story in silence.

Yihi constantly moved her hand around as she explained. She had grabbed a piece of the Tree of Origin and stabbed it into the flesh. And Stein seemed to have picked the hardened flesh up afterwards. In other words, Stein accidentally picked up Infinite Flesh and turned him into the Infinity Armour.

"Yihi was really wrong. Yihi should have been careful until the end. Please forgive me Master...hiing."

She was much more sincere about apologizing than before.

I just continued looking at Yihi.

I often found it amazing how different her perspective was.

She had a careless nature. As well as being rough and playful, she was obsessive and faithful. So Yihi was very different from me. Creative. The power to produce something new.

I instinctively recognized her capabilities. No one else would have tried to stab the flesh with a branch of the Tree of Origin. Those who knew the true nature of the flesh would be afraid to even approach. Or maybe they would consider a normal procedure.

She also buried the angels near the Tree of Origin. I would have thrown the corpses away or fed them to the creatures. But thanks to Yihi burying them properly, a lot of Tashmal's wariness had faded away. In addition, there were a few trivial things in her head.

'She has been helpful without knowing it.'

It could be a coincidence. However, it happened too many times to be dismissed as a coincidence.

Obviously, Yihi had sinned, but I didn't know if scolding her was the right thing to do. If constraints were placed then her creative behaviour was likely to disappear.

Of course, Yihi wasn't worried about this.

"Tell me your sins yourself."

First I would give her an option.

Yihi thought for a while before saying.

"I didn't wait for Master."

"No. That isn't a sin, I gave you that type of permission."

"Yihi left the flesh alone!"

"It is a dangerous existence that can't be left alone. That is one sin but the greater sin still remains."

A great sin.

What was it?

Yihi's expression was busy thinking. Then Yihi seemed to realize something and said.

"Hiing...I contacted Master late."

I nodded.

"That's right. You should have contacted me as soon as it happened. It is dangerous when I am far away."
