"I will kill you. Definitely, by all means."

"……"

The first thing Sariel encountered after coming off the stage was Mercedes' killing notice. Mercedes was completely different from Irene. She didn't consider Sariel's position or her friendship with Sariel at all. She just hated Sariel's attitude toward Grid.

Was it because Mercedes loved Grid more than Irene? No, their love for Grid was infinitely limitless. Their differences came from their positions. The responsibility borne by Empress Irene was much greater than that borne by Mercedes. She had to consider many more things.

"Really… I'm really sorry…" Mercedes' gaze filled with disgust and hatred was like a dagger that pierced Sariel's heart. The cheek that had been hit by Irene a moment ago throbbed and hurt again. By nature, it was right that it shouldn't hurt.

"Stop it." Grid calmed down the atmosphere. He patted the head of Sariel, who was crushed by guilt and had lowered it. Then he wrapped his arm around Mercedes' shoulders and kissed her cheek.

Then something magical happened. Mercedes' ice-cold expression melted like it was a lie. Her cheeks flushed, her pretty lips pursed, and she struggled to hold back her smile. It was a pure, girlish reaction that didn't match her usual knight's image.

There was a commotion in the surroundings. The spectators, who had been overwhelmed by the full-scale confrontation between the god and the Fallen Angel, came to their senses and became enraged. It was the anger of those who hated Grid being involved with many women.

Their disgust usually stemmed from jealousy, not a sense of ethics. It was an attitude that represented the trend of the times. A man or woman who attained a title of nobility in Satisfy had multiple spouses. Now for people, 'love shared with many people' wasn't strange. It was within a realm of understanding. In the first place, there were surprisingly many countries that allowed polygamy even in modern society.

In any case, the reason why people were angry with Grid was because Mercedes and Sariel were too good. Women who possessed exquisite beauty and outstanding abilities. There was even a charm from those with different species. They felt like they were going crazy because they were so envious of Grid, who monopolized them…

"Sariel isn't a woman, right?" It happened as Grid was reading the atmosphere and was bewildered…

"Sariel, you must really reflect." Braham, who struggled to repair the collapsing barriers in real time, approached and growled out.

Sins? Where in the world was there an innocent person? Braham was genuinely angry at Sariel, who dared to accuse Grid based on her own standards.

Sariel was also reflecting on it. It was a mistake she made while being devoured by an evil heart and lost her senses, but she was obediently remorseful. Daring to criticize the god she served…

She thought it was a sin where she deserved death a hundred times.

"Stop it." Grid eventually put his arm around Sariel's shoulders as well. "It isn't like Sariel did it on purpose. It is a mistake she made after losing her reason as a Fallen Angel. So why do you keep biting at it? You know that Sariel is the one suffering more than anyone else, right?"

"Bah, you are soothing me like a child."

"Don't be sarcastic. Let me assure you that I won't blame you even if you do something intentional against me that isn't a mistake."
