by fnovelpia“Were you a witch?”
Myra, with a grim expression on her face, suddenly says that. It exudes a ferocious energy as if it is going to kill you if the situation arises.
No, how did you know?
When I think of this, an electric current fills my head! And passes by.
‘It was when we made the Heavenly Pledge earlier.’
He did it to catch me.
Moreover, it is Mirabelle who has even awakened. She must be radiating a witch’s energy that I can’t feel. Myra, a priest, would be able to sense this.
I wondered how it passed safely.
First of all, I need to hurry up and get around to it.
“Haha, our Mirabelle is amazing, but she’s a witch. Not to that extent.”
“Really? The staff looks really nice. Can I just take a look?”
Anyway, I heard you’re really quick.
It was difficult to get out easily.
“What would you do if Mirabelle was a witch? Are you going to fight again with that body? Even if all the knights rush in, it won’t be easy~”
I stood crooked and frowned.
There is no need to be servile anymore.
Mirabelle, who has the highest potential in the story, has awakened into a witch. This is not an opponent that even a priest can handle.
“Really? But I don’t think he’s in a good condition at all?”
hmm?
When I checked Mirabell’s condition, it turned out to be a timid version of Mirabelle, not the Mirabelle that beat Myra like a dog.
Could it be the effect of moving away from the grimoire?
If this happens… .
“Hahahaha, it’s a joke. Joke~”
“It’s late.”
Seup, what should I do?
Shall I give Mirabelle the grimoire again?
Then Dad will go. One more operation?
With her brain working at full capacity, Myra lets out a deep sigh.
“Yes, that’s why they started shaking every time they saw us. Now I understand. Why did you look at me like I was a murderer?”
Myra mutters with a confused expression. It was as if he was speaking to himself, and it seemed to be mixed with regret.
A slave trader’s sense.
This is an opportunity.
You must not miss it.
“This child is a poor child who lost her parents and became a slave just because she was a witch. My life collapsed overnight, even though I hadn’t committed any sin.”
“Are you being emotional in front of a priest? A witch?”
“Because the weak cannot survive unless they do at least this. That’s the way the world is. That was the reality of this child.”
“… … Ha, fuck.”
Myra, who was glaring at me disapprovingly, cursed and scratched the back of her head. His face was distorted, as if he had been caught up in something troublesome.
Then he blows out his frustration and glares at me again.
“You knew she was a witch. But why are you taking me with you? Do you not know what a witch is?”
“How could you not know? It’s a fact that everyone in the world knows.”
“Answer without talking back.”
Myra’s sharply narrowed eyes were reminiscent of the eyes of a hawk. As if trying to find prey in the field. To reveal my hidden intentions.
Don’t flinch or anything. Instead, they laugh at it as if it is a pathetic question.
“Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable if you were forced to behave just because you were a priest? You could swear, make rude remarks, and even shake your fist while being suspicious of people. You don’t have to be careful to become a priest.”
“What, what?”
“Witches are the same. While there are witches in the world who conduct human experiments, there are also witches who are kind and cute. But how unfair would it be if your life was threatened just because you were a witch?”
“Don’t spin around, just say it. What do you want to say?”
The life of a slave trader is to use one’s tongue, but to be strict.
I brought Mirabell forward and used Mirabell Shield. Mirabelle, who came face to face with Myra, was very surprised and hugged me.
The stance that it is better to be a slave trader than a priest. I add a word to Myra, who looks at Mirabelle with complicated feelings.
“It doesn’t matter if you’re a witch or a devil. All I have to do is take care of my slave, no matter what he is. This is how you can always raise a good slave. Once you start picky eating, there is no end to it?”
“Ha.”
Myra is laughing out loud, probably out of sheer exasperation. Judging by the fact that he was even giggling, he must have liked my answer quite a bit.
This was enough. All that’s left is to wait for her answer.
What choice will she make?
If you gather knights and say you will kill the witch, the story ends there. Now, I can’t even buy items with points.
You have to trust my tongue and master negotiation skills to tie a ribbon with a cherry stem.
An uncomfortable silence that lasts for a long time.
Contrary to his relaxed appearance, his mouth was dry.
“… A.”
“Yes?”
“Go when I close my eyes. Instead, if you get caught, search. If I find out what I sent, I’ll be killed too.”
In the end, Myra’s decision was to let go.
Could it be that I never thought she would let go? Mirabelle opens her eyes wide and stares intently at Myra.
“What. Is this your first time seeing a good priest? It seems like you were scared because of me, so I’m sorry so I’m sorry for that.”
“Do you usually say that you are kind through your own words?”
“This is not what I told you to hear, so please shut your mouth.”
Myra is unable to overcome Mirabelle’s burdensome gaze and eventually looks away.
Even when we met at a bar, it was Myra who pushed herself in first. Even though it may have ended in a misunderstanding, it was an act born out of good intentions to help Mirabel.
That didn’t change even after finding out that Mirabelle was a witch, so only those with their own firm beliefs could see it.
I expressed my heartfelt gratitude.
“Haha, thank you for saving my life. But I can’t leave right away.”
I was in good form at best, so what should I do because I’m sorry?
We can’t go yet.
“What?”
“There’s something I need to get here. I can’t go until I find it.”
“Why can’t I go? Can’t you understand the situation?”
“If you can’t understand the situation, you’re not a slave trader. But what can you do? If you don’t get it, you’re going to fail anyway. Then let’s meet again someday. Now, Miss Mirabel. Greetings!”
“Ah, hello… . See you again?”
“Uh, okay. … Huh?”
Before Myra, who was dumbfounded, could come to her senses, she grabbed Mirabelle’s hand and jumped out.
is back again.
“What, what is it?”
“I left my money behind.”
***
The day after the Mirabel runaway incident occurred.
Nothing really changed.
The settlement was completed successfully, and the lord who received the bribe did not ask us for our sins. Moreover, since Mirabelle was here, it was not easy to touch him.
‘I didn’t even know that I couldn’t use magic back then.’
I asked Mirabel to use the magic of the time, but she couldn’t. It seems to be possible only if you have a grimoire, but unfortunately, I returned it to Myra.
Because the level of pollution in Magi is high. Even purification won’t solve it. There was no choice but to incinerate it.
Instead, they decoded it before burning it, and it is said to be a goblin’s delusional note, about becoming a god and punishing humans.
If you interpret it in modern terms, it’s like a Cider Pass novel for mulberry flavor. Something like awakening an SSS level skill and becoming unrivaled. But now goblins are the main characters.
It’s absurd that Mirabelle awakened like that.
‘This is why I awakened in a form I don’t know.’
It’s a shame that I won’t be able to use those magics, but since I’ve awakened, it doesn’t really matter. Because we are one step closer to liberating Mirabell.
Now that the physical specs have been upgraded, the next important thing is Mirabelle’s mental state… .
An inn where the morning sunlight falls.
It was a time when I was eating a sandwich for breakfast and watching the world go by through a newspaper. Mirabelle, who has eaten everything, looks at me blankly.
“Why are you doing that?”
“Well, that… .”
Mirabelle was unable to speak as she crossed her fingers. I sighed a little at that sight.
“It doesn’t matter if you want to.”
As she said that, a slight blush appeared on Mirabelle’s face. Mirabelle got down from the chair, writhed, then snuggled into my arms and sat on my thighs.
He must have been so shocked at being left alone that he didn’t want to leave even for a moment. Not even when he was walking, sleeping, or even washing up.
‘Of course, I’m somehow preventing that.’
It was troublesome that my dependency had gotten worse, but it wasn’t something to worry about.
Because I’ve seen the ending resolved at the end dozens of times.
It will happen this time too, eventually.
So now, my role is to accept Mirabelle if she tries to rely on me.
***
Do you know what starts when you clear a dungeon?
‘You have to clear the dungeon.’
I haven’t gotten the Soul Grimoire yet. Unless that comes out, there is no progress.
Because of that, I ran through the dungeon with Mirabelle for days and days.
The dungeon map was no longer needed. This was thanks to Mirabelle, who began to exchange knowledge with the magicians of Lothelophine after the incident, and learned detection magic.
Mirabelle took the lead and advanced through the cave, easily reaching the boss room. The goblins were already dead in the boss room.
“That’s great. It’s a hit this time too.”
As soon as she entered the dungeon, Mirabelle cast a spell, and the magic arrow flew in a curved direction and hit the monsters in the boss room.
An ability that can be considered a circus.
Mirabelle’s magic skills increased exponentially with each passing day. Although it’s only for a moment, I’m guessing it’s because of experiencing the Awakened Witch’s part.
“Hehe.”
He smiles and says he likes Mirabelle.
I left her behind and searched for the goblin shaman’s body.
What number is this?
I think I’ve done this 50 times already.
The Goblin Shaman’s grimoire was not a 100% drop, and even if it did come out, it was not a soul grimoire. If it had come out right away, it wouldn’t have been like this still.
‘Trash double gacha.’
Applying that to essential items? He wasn’t this vicious even in the game.
While I was thinking about complaining, a book was held in my hand. Fortunately, the book was dropped this time.
[Goblin Shaman’s Grimoire]
I handed the grimoire to Mirabelle as I always did.
Mirabelle was able to interpret the book by looking at it. It could be because she’s a witch, or it could be because the main character’s corrections were added.
Even though Narsha is an ordinary noble girl, she was able to easily learn swordsmanship.
‘If that applied to me too, I’d be invincible by now.’
Because that doesn’t work, I live a difficult life every day.
“Master, this… .”
While I was thinking about something else, Mirabell showed me a grimoire.
“Why. Is there any problem?”
Mirabelle’s expression is mysterious.
Isn’t it true again?
Another infinite dungeon?
“This is written on how to deal with the soul.”
The moment those words came out of Mirabelle’s mouth.
[Goblin Shaman’s Grimoire]
>
[Soul Grimoire]
The item name changes.
It’s finally here.
The final piece of liberation.
I looked up at the ceiling of the cave and let out a long sigh. Very long.
After letting out the things that were frustrating my heart, I made eye contact with Mirabelle with a much more relaxed mind.
Indigo eyes sparkling with vitality, completely different from when we first met.
She’s gotten used to short skirts and doesn’t feel embarrassed.
There are many other things that have changed.
All that’s left of the girl who became a full-fledged witch is a broken heart.
Now it’s the last time.
“Let’s go. To get revenge on my father.”
