by fnovelpiaDid he have that much affection for us?
When he said he was leaving, Colton’s kind face turned white. It was similar to someone who received notice of a breakup from their lover.
“Go, go? What does that mean all of a sudden?”
“I think my current magic skills are sufficient.”
“It’s enough! That child will become a great wizard in the future. There are still so many things to learn!”
I know.
To be exact, she is not an archmage but an archwitch.
But if it were you, would you leave such a talented child in your care? To a single union leader? There are so many people in the world who want to take him with them. You are not a destination, you are just a stop along the way.
Since I couldn’t say that, I buried it somewhere in my heart and said something else.
“Haha, there is something more important than that. As the owner of this child, I will help you achieve what you want.”
“Are you referring to the revenge you mentioned earlier?”
“Wow, you know very well. Miss Mirabell’s father is the reason Mirabell became like this. In order for this child to move forward, shouldn’t he break off the evil ties of the past?”
Colton shook his head violently, as if he didn’t think so.
“Not at all. Revenge begets revenge, and the ending is empty. Moreover, killing a parricide is something that should never be done. Miss Mirabel, you must not fall for his trick. Come this way. I will free you from the shackles of your soul.”
I know how to do that too.
I’d like to applaud Colton’s magic skills, but it’s difficult for me. Once the shackles are lifted, you will be free at will.
Mirabelle doesn’t know what to do between the two of us. I put my hand on her shoulder and whispered in her ear.
“People say things out of habit. They say that taking revenge only brings a sense of desolation. Revenge should not be done because it brings about more revenge.”
“Of course─”
He interrupts Colton, who tries to intervene, and adds.
“But Miss Mirabel, think about it this way. Shouldn’t we catch mosquitoes when they suck blood? Are you going to let go of the pests that arbitrarily steal your blood and make you itchy?”
“Catch… Hey, right?”
of course.
Where does it end? After dismembering the body, I should stuff it and post a message saying I caught it, Galju.
“That’s right. I have to catch it. Would you be disappointed because you caught the mosquito that was bothering you all along? no. What you get is pleasure, and you can focus on other things with peace of mind.”
“It’s a logical leap! They are not bugs, they are people, and even more so, they are her family!”
“It doesn’t matter that you’re a human and not an insect. All that matters is that he caused harm, and Miss Mirabel was irreparably hurt. All Miss Mirabell has to offer is a just punishment for this. How just is it because the decision is made by the parties involved and not by a third party?”
“Miss Mirabel! Don’t listen with your ears!”
“The amount of Mirabel is not bad. It was all that man’s fault. Would he even reform if left alone? Would a man who sold his own daughter not be able to sell someone else’s daughter? It needs to be dealt with before someone else is harmed. Miss Mirabel is taking the right path.”
The master negotiation skills are fully activated.
He puts plausible words directly into Mirabelle’s ears.
Revenge on her father is Mirabelle’s life goal. It means that the cute, kind Mirabelle suffered so much damage that it didn’t matter that the other person was a blood relative.
If you can’t even fathom the depth of darkness that the girl possesses, don’t try to deny it, you mere NPC.
Mirabelle, who was listening as if fascinated, eventually made a decision. I give a belly button greeting to Colton.
“Thank you for teaching me so far.”
“Mi, Miss Mirabel?”
Ogugu, our Mirabelle. Whoever raised him is very polite.
Colton, who was embarrassed, soon glared at me with murderous intent. He acted as if he was going to kill someone with just his eyes, and then burst into anger with his mouth.
“I see. It was like that too. No matter how much she has honed her talent, her soul is not something that can be tampered with… You are not an ordinary slave trader, but a warlock.”
yes?
“I was convinced after hearing the speech just now. The words contain an unknown power. There is no doubt that he encouraged Miss Mirabel by disturbing her spirit with that. Miss Mirabel is now brainwashed.”
What do you mean?
This guy feels like he’s being pushed around, so he says whatever he wants.
As if that wasn’t enough, Colton casts a spell. Ice crystals forming around him.
“Please wait a moment, Miss Mirabel. Even though it may take a long time, if it’s me and Miss Mirabel, we can definitely get it done.”
Colton, who said those words, finally cast a spell. Ice crystals were aimed at me, scattering cold air in all directions.
Wow, no matter how much I want Mirabelle. I didn’t expect you to use magic so recklessly.
However, there is a beautiful witch maid who invested a lot of money over here. Mirabelle holds out her staff, and a translucent curtain blocks our path.
Kaang!
“What?!”
Colton’s magic fails to penetrate the shield and shatters into ice shards. Unlike him, who is embarrassed, Mirabell calmly continues the magic.
Grumbling.
A fireball created in the air. However, it was not something that could be called a fireball. Flame rock. It was large enough to blow up a building in one blow.
Fireballs can also become meteors depending on who uses them. That’s exactly what happened now. Mirabelle aimed her wand at Colton.
I cut my arm! I swung it with style.
“Go, Miss Mirabel. It’s a direct attack! Fireball!”
But Mirabelle didn’t move. He glanced back at me.
“Sin, I don’t think it’s okay to use magic on innocent people… .”
“Ah.”
I agree with killing my father, but this is not okay. I instilled it in him, but he also has unique beliefs.
If it doesn’t work out, there’s nothing we can do.
Is there anything I can do to follow?
“Mr. Colton, I will not harm you based on your goodwill until today. But if you stop us any longer, you will have to pay a price.”
“Ugh… .”
Colton gritted his teeth.
You must be angry. Even if it were me, I would do the same.
Life was denied to a child who learned magic less than a month ago. But what can I do? That’s life.
If Colton was my slave, I would comfort him and find a way to help him grow, but that’s not the case. I have no intention of making a man my slave in the first place.
“Thank you for your hard work so far, Mr. Colton.”
Leaving Colton behind, she exited the union building without keeping her guard up. Mirabell only raised her staff when she was outside the visual range of the Wizards’ Guild.
“You must have been nervous, but you worked hard.”
It was my first real battle, and I never thought I would handle it so neatly. Colton taught me very well.
I stroked her head with pride, but this time Mirabelle did not resist. He just lowers his head and looks embarrassed.
Oooh. I should take this opportunity to stroke it to my heart’s content. I stroked his soft, warm head endlessly. However, Mirabelle probably lowered her body and escaped because the severity was severe.
I straightened out the hair that was tangled here and there.
It’s unfortunate, but I have to be satisfied with this for today. Since I gave permission once, opportunities will come often in the future.
“Where do we go now?”
“I’m going to a nearby city called Delophine.”
There is a dungeon for beginners in Delophine.
You won’t even notice it if you go later, but it’s still the only dungeon you can explore early on. It’s literally for beginners, so it’s easy enough to clear with just a few ordinary slaves.
If Mirabelle, wearing the Heavenly Oath, goes to a place like that, she will die.
‘Go and get the magic book, sell some magic stones, and increase Mirabell’s experience points.’
The training plan is a breeze!
***
“Where is the slave trader trying to come in? Get out of here!”
Fuck this.
I vaguely heard that soldiers’ salaries are low, but that doesn’t mean you should try to steal other people’s money. Everyone they meet tries to extort money from them. The words are chivalrous, but there is no such thing as blade robbery.
If you think about it, the Knights were like the slave traders’ natural enemies even in the game.
What they mean is that they come from the beginning of the game to the end and collect taxes. There were times when you had to pay slaves if you couldn’t pay taxes.
I lost it during my gaming days, and I also lost it when I was possessed. It can’t be good if the view on the knights is good.
I took out a gold coin from my purse. If you give 20 gold each time, your pockets will be empty in no time. In the first place, I gave too much during Libria. I tried to pretend to be in front of Mirabell.
Maybe it was because he was a soldier from a rural city. Fortunately, he was satisfied with that and cleared the way.
“Let’s stop by a bar and eat first.”
I was planning on staying at an inn first, but I was really hungry. We sat down in the biggest bar in Delorphine.
I ordered corn bread, lamb steak, and mushroom stew. It was too much food for a commoner, let alone a slave, but Mirabelle, who was used to it, ate it without paying attention.
Yes, eat a lot. I have to go through the dungeon from now on.
I thought it would be an easy meal time.
“Julius, shall we just have a drink?”
“You ate it yesterday too, right?”
“Yesterday was yesterday, and today is today. Is it true that you have to drink one cup a day to feel energized?”
Until the priests came into the tavern.
