No. 278
In an instant, the room was covered with hazy fog. Like a late-night cemetery.
Thump, thump, thump, thump.
The sound of a walker resonated as if it were a drum from all sides.
“What, what!”
Inside the room where I couldn't tell anyone, I heard the screaming of the general butler. It was at that moment that the fog had cleared.
The ghost soldiers that filled the room were pointing their spears, swords, and bows at the monsters and the butler.
A pillar of light appeared behind my back. Toogak, Toogak. I wondered if I could hear the heels of his shoes, and then Boone, dressed in a black suit, walked out in front of me.
His appearance was different from usual. The scales on the cheeks and the whites were black, and in the center of the forehead were horns of a strange shape similar to those of ghost soldiers.
He screamed out loud. It was a word I couldn't understand, but I could glimpse that it was an ancient word.
Some of the ghosts, who quickly lowered themselves, swiftly penetrated into the monster.
“Kieek-!!”
A tearing scream echoed.
When the monster flaps its wings, chang, chang-!! The window began to break with a sharp burst.
The moment a large fragment was flying toward me, a strange wind shook in the room and the flying fragment flew toward the butler.
It was the power of Pur. It appeared in the form of a deer, but it was also not the usual appearance like Boone.
Purr was swaying like black filth, the eyes were red, the fangs protruded sharply like a tiger, and the huge antlers were rough as if they were thorns.
Woong, woong, strange vibrations ran across my head. The front of my eyes turns red and only anger overflows in me.
As assimilating to my emotions, the appearances of Boone, Pur, and the ghost soldiers became more and more creepy.
When the iron mask that covered the faces of the ghost soldiers broke and fell under the feet, it became smoke and disappeared. The face was revealed and the eyeballs became black tears and flowed down, and in that place, creepy eyes like those of the beast were created.
Before long, the newly formed eyes were shining red, and the same type of phosphorus as my ancestor came to mind.
The inside of the room became Abi Gyu-hwan. A creepy scream erupted every time the soldiers rushed to the monsters shot arrows that speared swords and spears.
They sliced the flesh of the monster and drank blood. It was a scene like hell.
The monster that was spasmodic thinly became smaller and smaller, and some kind of starter appeared on the floor. Start-in seemed to swallow a monster, that is, Benedict.
"No, no……”
No, I won't let it go!
I ran into Benedict, but before my hand, Benedict disappeared everywhere.
Sit down on the floor, I struck the spot where I thought of the startup.
Bang!
Bang!!
While hitting it again and again, his hand broke and bleeding, but I didn't know that he was sick.
At that time, the general butler collapsed. Incontinence, he stepped back with his palm.
“Uh, uh...… Ahhhhhh!”
As he screamed and tried to run away, I grabbed the blade that Leah dropped.
'I have to kill it.'
I can't miss that man.
I ran to the general butler without hesitation.
“Ah, my ady. Help me. Please save me, young lady.”
“……”
“Tong, it was blackmailed. So, ah, yes. The family was held hostage, so…! Young Lady, what power would this old man say to you, would you reject their orders? Please save me, please save me.”
I couldn't understand the general butler's words. The only thing that occupied the head was flesh.
Die.
Die.
Kill it!
The moment I was about to put the blade into the butler's chest, something caught my ankle. It was Leah's hand.
“……”
Leah's distracted hand was entangled in my ankle.
It was only then that my color began to return to my view that was red.
I looked around the room blankly. The spirit of the ghost soldiers, Boone, and Purr did not fade at all.
The energy was really evil. The form was terrible, like a monster.
'Ah……'
I only realized that they had been assimilated into my feelings. Also, if you don't stop now, you can't stop again.
As the blade fell from my hand, Boone, Pur, and ghost soldiers gradually faded.
It was at that moment when a loud noise came from outside the room.
"Miss?"
They were the employees of the castle.
Those who escaped from the master's masterpiece noticed the suspicious thing and ran with each weapon, such as a bat, a hoe, or a kitchen knife.
“Oh my God, Miss Shabanol!”
“Hey, someone bring a doctor! The lady and Leah...…!”
The employees ran to me, and only then came tears bursting out.
“Leah, Leah…… Someone got Leah...…”
“……”
“Ah, Leah……”
When I crawled to Leah, I was sorrowful.
* * *
The castle flipped over.
The general butler was arrested, and the Duke of Dubbleed, who heard the news, immediately issued an order to lift the first-class barricade, which the general butler initiated with a false order.
Dubbleed's people could only enter the estate after that.
The Duke, Javelin, and Dubbleed brothers, who had moved to the castle by long-distance movements, ran without hesitation to the castle ward.
When I opened the door, I saw Leah lying in bed unconscious, and LeBlaine.
LeBlaine was like a man out of his soul.
Henry asked an employee in the hospital room about Leah's condition.
“With Dubbleed’s medical technology and magic, it is said that trauma is not a difficult condition to treat, but the problem is……”
He spoke with a cloudy face.
“It looks like there was poison on the claws of the monster, but it is an unknown poison that cannot be identified. It is impossible to decipher.”
“A wizard? Is there no antidote at all?”
“Among the drugs that currently exist.”
“Can’t you make it?”
The employee shook his head.
“It's hard without finding the monster and investigating the poison. It won't last long, according to the doctor's words. When the lungs are completely destroyed...…"
Ishak closed his eyes. Other families couldn't speak anymore. They knew well what Leah meant to LeBlaine.
My best friend, the most trusted person in the world, my mother……
When everyone couldn't even say the words to the enchanted LeBlaine, she muttered.
“…… I should have died. I…… Leah, what am I...”
“LeBlaine Dubbleed!”
The thunderbolt-like anger burst out. It was John.
John has never shouted at LeBlaine since the incident when he first hid his wounds.
Ishak and Henry turned to him with confused expressions, and John walked in front of LeBlaine.
She mumbled with her head sober.
“It's because of me. To protect me, I moved to the estate like a fool, and I didn't get dressed properly...…"
“What was born? Did you come to Dubbleed? Why do you say that is also a sin.”
Ishak said "Brother!" Screamed, but John only looked at LeBlaine with his stubborn face.
“You know it's not your fault.”
LeBlaine slowly raised her head.
Tears gathered in her bloodshot eyes. John bent his knees and opened his mouth again, looking into his sister.
“What is the reason you were able to reach this place after endless misfortune?”
The tears that had been accumulated fell. LeBlaine said, twisting her face in a mess like a child.
“Because I didn’t give up.”
“Yes, you are the one who knows how to not give up.”
John hugged her. Supporting his thin sister's head with one hand, he said sweetly.
“Give it back to the other person. In the meanest way, like Dubbleed's bloodline.”
The light returned to LeBlaine's eyes, holding her brother's collar tightly.
I will never give up. Leah and myself.
* * *
Next day.
Leah was moved to an island mansion.
This was because an institutional mansion with Taylor, a tower and a trigon was more suitable for treatment than a manor.
My aunt and Viscount Duboss decided to manage the estate and interrogate the general butler. Before we left, the screams of the general butlers were heard in the basement prison.
My dad, my brothers, and I returned to the institutional mansion. It was the Imperial Army that met us.
“LeBlaine Ressette Dubbled. It is criticized as a suspect in the shopping street Meteor incident.”
I laughed in vain.
'The Temple manipulated the shopping street case.'
Benedict returned with a big wound, so the temple would have known that things were wrong.
'Will you cover me up to fix the shopping mall Meteor case?'
In the family's mock battle, I instructed the wizards to instruct Meteor, which was a super high-grade magic that could be used by imperial wizards.
However, in my first life, after deliberation, I made a formula that makes it easier to cast Meteor, and through him, I cast Meteor in a mock battle.
'Why did you say it was Meteor, not other magic.'
In people's minds, the formula ‘LeBlaine = Meteor’ was intended to be unforgettable and to overwrite me even if something went wrong.
“Why am I using Meteor in the shopping street?”
“I confirmed that there was a second child of fate in the shopping street. The shop owners also testified that the meteorite fell for a second time, and they also confirmed that there was someone who saw you and that you were not in Dubbleed.”
'It was perfectly manipulated.'
“That alone cannot be said to be the culprit. Maybe Mina was aiming at me and casting Meteor.”
“The second is also the subject of investigation. Both of them have been issued a decree, so it would be beneficial to follow them gently.”
Ishak was trying to step forward.
I stopped him.
'If you don't get an investigation for being unhappy, you'll think it's suspicious.
"Good. Let's go.”
“Little girl!”
“LeBlaine.”
Ishak and Henri looked at me with hard faces, but I shrugged.
"I will be back. Oh, before that...…”
I whispered to John, and his eyes widened.
“The youngest.”
"Please."
“…… Okay."
After I finished speaking, I followed the Imperial Army and left the mansion. My back was noisy.
Upon arriving at the Imperial Palace, I saw Mina walking with Cardinal Reginald across the corridor.
She looked very anxious.
When my eyes meet with her, she curls up her hand.
“Baby.”
Reginald spoke to me with a friendly expression.
“I was worried about anything if I did not come to the Imperial Palace. If you don't get investigated, you'll be suspicious.”
As my expression became cold, Reginald laughed. I took him all the way.
The moment I just passed by Mina, I said, “Ah.” And stopped walking. And whispered her.
"Mina."
“……”
“In the world. There are a lot of bad people. For example, someone who tries to sacrifice an innocent person to keep his convictions… Someone who breaks the most precious thing of the other person for anger.”
"What?"
I smiled and said.
“How is the Duke Amity doing well?”
Mina's expression hardened.
“You can’t……”
“How do you think I am? Do you look like a bad person?”
Reginald looked at us with a puzzled expression as he was talking about Sogon Sogon.
“Mina?”
At that moment, Mina started running hurriedly. To the other side of the investigation room.
“Mina!”
Reginald was so embarrassed that he looked at Mina. I clapped my hands and shouted.
“What can I do. If you don't get investigated, you'll be suspicious.”
Reginald's expression hardened.
