Inner Voice: All Heroines Hear My Inner Voice

Chapter 366: Holy King

Chapter 366: Holy King

However, before she said goodbye to everyone—

"Celis, you've just come all the way from abroad. You'll be returning to the Vatican soon? Actually if it's just to tell your leader about the ceasefire letter and what happened in this Village, you don't have to."

It was Eiji, his words made Celis look at him in confusion and Cleo who wanted to leave the Village immediately became tense.

'No way, he didn't realize my disguise, right?!'

Although what Eiji said had nothing to do with it, Cleo was worried about his identity problem, he had an identity crisis. If it was revealed here, he knew he wouldn't end up well.

Yuki, Kurumi and Basara were also a little reluctant to part with Celis after they met again. They wondered if Eiji had any ideas?

"Eiji, don't tell me you want me to tell the Pope by making a phone call or communication magic? Sorry, that won't work. For things like this I have to do it manually..." Celis smiled wryly, depending on how important the information she had to convey to the pope in the Vatican was. If it was as important as the ceasefire letter from the demons, she would have to meet the pope in person.

This was to give the other party face and show her respect as a member of the Hero Clan.

Celis knew Eiji was trying to help her and she appreciated it.

He was probably worried about her because Cleo was still following her?

[Celis +1]

"No, that's not it. What I want to tell you is..." Eiji turned his gaze to a white dove perched atop a certain pillar in the ceremony room.

The bird had actually entered since he killed the elders, the four gods and made a hole on the other side of the room. The others hadn't noticed, but he had of course.

Everyone followed the direction of Eiji's gaze.

"Doves?" Basara and the others frowned.

None of them believed that it was a normal bird because they only realized its existence after Eiji said it.

Moreover, it was unlikely that there was a dove entering the Village because for Shuuya, this was the first time he had seen a dove in the Village.

Usually, birds or wild animals from the mountains could not carelessly enter the village due to the existence of barriers. However, even after the death of the elders and the four gods, the village barrier disappeared, allowing animals from the mountains to enter the village...

Shuuya who had lived in the Village for a long time knew that it was rare for white doves to live around the Village.

And the dove that was now entering the ceremony room without the knowledge of anyone but Eiji was definitely not normal!

"Hey you heard everything, tell Celis and give her some time to rest. Do you have the heart to make your subordinates go back and forth overseas for something you already know? What a bad leader..." Eiji spoke to the pigeon which earned him many strange looks from the people in the room.

Eiji was talking to a bird, did he know bird language? They knew Eiji was very strong and versatile but he also mastered this kind of skill.

"Eiji, from your words, you seem to assume that the dove is the Vatican Pope, right? That..."

It's not that Celis wanted to embarrass Eiji, but her lips trembled as if she wanted to laugh. She couldn't believe it, but she was surprised when she heard an unfamiliar voice in the room.

Not only Celis, the others too...

"Nice to meet you, Eiji Seiya. Indeed, I've heard everything. I'm a little surprised you could find me. Celis, you don't need to rush back to the Vatican, you can enjoy your time there."

"That dove is talking?! It talks like a human and has the voice of an old man!" Maria shouted with shock on her loli face.

"Maria, that last one is a bit rude, though it's not wrong since you are indeed an old man, right Vatican King?" Eiji said that with a smile, there was no surprise on his face, even when the dove spoke like a human.

"...." The dove was clearly shocked into speechlessness because not only was Eiji aware of his existence, he also knew his identity.

"K-King Vatican? Not pope, but King Vatican?.... Holy King?!"

Celis also raised her voice. The ceremonial room was starting to get excited.

Putting aside demons like Mio, Maria who didn't know much about the Vatican King, the Holy King or anything else. Sapphire who knew only widened her eyes slightly before returning to her casual demeanor.

However, Basara and the other heroes in the room were different. They were staring at the bird with serious expressions.

The Vatican King or Holy King was a person who had authority beyond the Pope. Not only that, the Holy King was actually the one who stood at the top of the Hero Clan!

Celis's reaction was somewhat understandable as none of them had expected that such a person had disguised himself as a pigeon and eavesdropped on their conversation.

[It was just the old man who became one of the villain bosses in the original work. He was the creator. The Vatican King was actually the one who had used magic and forbidden techniques to clone Jin Toujou's DNA to create an existence like Shiba Kyouichi.]

[Despite his noble identity, he is just a paranoid old man like the elders of Hero Village. The difference is that he is crazier because of his lust for power, he has been killing his own people to secure his position for years. Why are you guys so surprised?]

"!!!"

Those who were already shocked by the dove's hidden identity being revealed were even more shocked after hearing what Eiji said.

Yuki and Kurumi frowned, they did not expect the Holy King to be such a person.

In the past, they slightly admired the Holy King who stood at the top of the Hero Clan. However, the so-called Holy King seemed to be no worse than the elders in the Village.

He was a bad person.

One of the villain bosses!

Even more surprised was Celis, she certainly only knew things about cloning related to Jin Toujou, her father Basara and Albareos who killed his own people to secure his position.

The Holy King did this?

She glanced at Eiji in disbelief. If it was someone else, Celis would have already cut down the person who dared to slander the Holy King who was basically the leader of his leaders. But the one who said that was Eiji and he said it in his inner voice.

Can one's inner voice lie?

Celis who knew the answer felt that the image of the King Saint she idolized in her heart collapsed to the point that she forgot to reply to what the old man said.

"Celis this is really me. I'm talking to all of you through one of my magical creations. I am the Holy King of heroes, Albareos."

Perhaps out of concern that Celis and the others would not believe his identity, he introduced himself in a majestic sounding voice.

Albareos was his real name, but none of the people in the room reacted after he said it.

They all suddenly fell silent.

Um? The girls in there were also inexplicably looking at him unfriendly?

Albareos didn't know his good image as the leader of the Hero Clan in the eyes of the young heroes had just been lowered by Eiji.

If he had known, he would have panicked.

Celis looked at the dove... No, Holy King. She gave him a complicated look.

The Village elders were the bad guys, her adjutant was a traitor who would probably stab her in the back and her Clan leader was the villain boss.

Although this matter still had to be further verified, she somehow believed what Eiji's inner voice said.

"Holy King, sorry. I was so surprised by your presence in this place... I'll do as you say." Celis placed one of her hands on her chest in respect.

Cleo did not say anything, but also followed Celis' posture.

The two of them saluted a bird which made girls like Mio and Maria stifle a laugh.

The scene looked funny.

Eiji shook his head, in the original work this kind of scene clearly did not exist. Albareos sent his bird secretly to the Village, but he did it only to communicate with Shiba who had stolen the Four Gods at that time.

In fact, as Shiba's creator, Albareos was Shiba's supporter behind the scenes. He needed Shiba to return to his side and help him become a god.

Basara and the others did not know this until Jin Toujou came to the Vatican personally to kill Albareos and reveal his crimes to everyone in the Hero Clan.

The real Albareos was a grumpy old man who liked to look down on powerful people like Jin Toujou, but he was strangely not angry when she told him to give Celis a break. He immediately revealed his identity and gave her what he wanted.

Eiji suspected that this villain boss was sucking up to him.

[Isn't that great, host? You might be able to make use of it.]

'Miss System, what do you mean?'

[I mean borrow her knife to deal with the protagonist's father so that you can infiltrate the protagonist's mother's heart more easily. After all, it's hard to instantly make the protagonist's mother fall in love with you in less than a day. Unless you use more coercive methods like brainwashing magic for example.]

"...." Eiji almost opened his mouth to exclaim, he was amazed by the idea Miss System gave.

This woman is a genius! Why did he just know that Miss System was talented to be a strategist to steal other people's wives?

[Not really, I'm sure many people out there will have the same idea as me.]

Glancing at Sapphire out of the corner of his eye, his vision pierced through her black robes and saw her hot figure. It was rather difficult to take her down in less than a day because she still had Jin in her heart.

At most she could only increase her favorability by showing off her strength and how good she was to her son.

To capture his heart without using the hentai protagonist method...

[Sapphire's positive level: 47]

It had been quite a while since he had improved after he had shown his prowess a few times.

But with the help of 'Future Insight' and 'Multi Ending'... After he saw the future and saw several routes he could choose... Eiji ruled out the Miss System idea because it would take longer.

Who is he anyway? He's the Harem King! Conquering the protagonist's mother in one day? He, Eiji Seiya, is the expert.

[What's with this sudden burst of confidence... Well, good luck. I'm waiting for your lemon scene with your childhood friend and the protagonist's mom, host! Do it!]

Someone finally admitted that he was a voyeour.

Eiji had long suspected about this, the woman finally revealed her true colors who was basically a perverted woman behind the scenes.

"Eiji Seiya."

"That's me."

He was too busy with his thoughts that he didn't realize everyone's gazes were already on him.

In addition to what everyone had heard, Albareos seemed to have finished talking about some things privately with Celis through communication magic. The blonde girl looked at him with a mixture of embarrassment in her emerald eyes.

What did the old man say to Celis?

Eiji who had just examined the future had some guesses, he looked at the dove indifferently.

"Since I've heard things about the truce that I've now agreed to, I must have heard what you've done to the elders and the four gods of the Village."

"Oh you agreed to a truce? That's good. As a leader, you did a good thing to put aside your differences with the demons and chose to make peace with them." Eiji sighed and amusedly said, "Hopefully you abide by the terms in this truce and don't violate any because otherwise I'll have to visit you personally."

"As for the elders and the four gods? Are you angry that I killed your subordinates and pets? Don't be angry, you will regret it. You should be happy because from now on this Village will belong to me and my father-in-law, Shuuya-san will manage it for me."

"It's the same as the Hero Clan having some good relations with me, Eiji Seiya. No need to thank me."

Except for the girls and Sapphire who was smirking slightly, Celis and the others looked at him in horror.

Eiji did not give a face to the Holy King, the one who stood at the apex of the Hero Clan.

Just like he treated the elders, he was also not afraid to provoke Albareos!

And it wasn't like before where he spoke kindly to Celis when asked about the death of the elders and the four gods.

When it was Albareos' turn to ask, Eiji showed his true colors. It was the color of the King of Heroes and the proud King of the Harem. From the way he looked at Albareos, he was clearly looking down on the other party.

That cold and condescending gaze returned again, making Mio and their girls hot.

There was a difference when he was dealing with beautiful women and old men.

[Sapphire +3]

And Sapphire, the protagonist's mother seemed to eat this set. She likes men who are fearless and arrogant.

On the other side.

Sitting on the throne. With the royal robes and crown he wore, Albareos had an ugly expression.

Unlike his dove face that looked innocent, the old man's face showed anger when he saw Eiji looking down on him.

If it was someone else who dared to say all those words to him, he would have already ordered his subordinates to kill him.

But that person was Eiji. Having seen his power with his own eyes, Albareos knew he was weaker than him and had to swallow this humiliation.

Even Shiba, his best creation died in that boy's hands.

So instead of becoming his enemy, Albareos had other ideas for Eiji. He relied on Celis, the most beautiful holy knight in the Vatican for that.

"Celis, you have to get it. Don't disappoint me."
