by adminEpisode 202 – Princess, Ariana Crowfield 15 –
I don’t know how the war against vampires was won.
My memory just stopped there.
Anyway, from here on out, you can find out by asking out loud.
There was no need to worry.
This is the story that comes out anyway if you ask.
It’s probably a story about how something was handled.
“So, let me ask you. you are… Even if I sacrifice my soul… Did you have a wish that you wanted to fulfill?”
he asked.
“At least I think I know what you want to say.”
The evil spirit’s stigmata showed me a fragment of his memory.
I don’t know why that was possible.
Probably because it is strongly imbued with the power of the devil, a creature of an evil god.
I just think I was able to get a glimpse into his thoughts.
There are probably still many abilities that you don’t know about.
“I may not know my soul, but there is something I want to achieve by giving up my life. Like that’s what you really want.”
He regretted his past.
But for many years he suffered from the sins of his past.
Nothing lasts forever.
The choice he made to escape couldn’t last forever, so it struck him again.
He became even more devastated as he went through a terrible daily routine.
Fortunately, it is only now that he has found rest.
Because, paradoxically, nothing lasts forever.
Since nothing lasts forever, there is no eternal suffering.
He barely overcame it.
He asked me that as soon as he saw me belittling life.
in other words.
The reason he asked me if my life was not worth it…
“Did it overlap with you?”
It may be because my past and mine seemed to overlap.
He sacrificed himself for revenge.
I can sacrifice my life for a purpose.
Although they are completely different, they can be put into the same category.
That’s why he said that because he was worried about me.
By preventing the sins one has committed.
Because I thought I could atone for that.
“… How did you know?”
It may be about how you know about your past.
It’s important here.
What should I do?
‘Should I reveal my stigmata?’
That was the problem.
Unlike others, when this vampire was active, there were few proper human nations, let alone empires.
At that time, most of the countries had already long ago disappeared into the backwaters of history.
In the past, we didn’t even know that the Kingdom of Helios existed.
in other words. It cannot be said that it was discovered through the power of the empire.
Because we cannot know a time zone where the empire does not exist.
‘It’s difficult to even say that I figured it out with the help of a saint… ‘
I am in opposition to Seonghwangcheong.
If you have the help of a saint, you may think that you, an unaffiliated adult, do not need help.
In reality, even if he is a saint, his power is limited because he is associated with the bishops.
I may not be able to pay attention because I’m busy with work.
The problem is that he may be suspicious.
It doesn’t matter if it’s true.
The problem is that it is just a lie and if investigated, it will be revealed to the public.
In the worst case, you might think you found out information through a vampire.
Luciano is the first vampire lord conceived by the progenitor.
He is an elder among elders who existed even when Dillenium was active.
“… You seem to have difficulty speaking.”
He looked at me as if he sensed that I was in trouble.
Honestly, I had a lot to say.
I just couldn’t do it.
Tens of thousands of thoughts passed through my mind.
I thought about what I could do to get out of this situation.
‘I was too hasty… !’
Since this was my first time experiencing this, I spoke right away without thinking about the repercussions.
So there were a lot of problems.
I didn’t know what to do.
If I reveal my stigmata, he might label me a heretic.
The saint and Alice might also leave.
However, it was impossible to make him understand the situation without stigmata.
In the end, if I become a liar, the credibility of my claim that I am not a heretic will also be undermined.
It was a dilemma.
“Then I won’t ask.”
And an answer that exceeded my expectations came out of his mouth.
At those words, my poker face fell and I looked at him.
His expression remained the same.
It was still hard to know what he was thinking.
His words continued.
“You knew my past. I don’t know how you knew. But I did know one thing. If you were trying to harm me, you would have brought them out a long time ago.”
uh.
That’s because I didn’t know that when I met you.
If I had known, I would have written it a long time ago.
It was because the stigmata was activated late.
“And the reason you said it now is to give me confidence. I think he wanted to show me that he wouldn’t hurt me… Wrong… ?”
uh.
Wrong.
But if you give me this misunderstanding, I would be grateful.
I immediately made up something plausible and said it.
“… In the end, people change. Even if a vampire dominates him, his personality changes… In the end, even low-level vampires will change someday.
This is especially true if, like you, your blood vessels have disappeared.”
It’s easy to make up something plausible.
All you have to do is embellish the obvious as much as possible and say it implicitly.
“I understand you. I’m not sure I would make a different choice than you in that situation.”
I don’t know what I’m talking about.
I thought it would be resolved if I just pretended to understand.
“I can’t tell you how. But I can be sure of one thing.”
Rather than being 100% false
“I have no intention of harming you. This is sincere.”
Lies mixed with a bit of truth are more persuasive.
This sentence is true.
I don’t care if he lives or dies.
If it were in my power, I would have found out a long time ago that he was a vampire.
I mean, I wouldn’t have done that.
Everything I said above is a lie.
I thought it would be good if this much was conveyed.
“… Thank you.”
Although I didn’t shed any tears because I was a vampire.
If hot blood had flowed, hot tears would have definitely been shed.
I decided to believe that.
Me, Dilenium, and Lucas walked forward in silence for a while.
-Abraxas. So what?
Of course, the conversation was superficial.
Lucas, who was having a hard time following our conversation, answered.
[Stay still for now. I need to explain something too. It’s just that saints, saints, vampires, heavenly gods, evil gods, etc. are complicatedly intertwined. So, I’ll explain later.]
I left the explanation to my future self.
If I can’t figure it out, I’m thinking of asking Alice to tell her that the information I got from the old empire coincidentally overlapped when I looked it up.
Alice, you know about my reincarnation.
I believe that they will somehow get over it.
Dilenium eventually came to us.
Lucas and I gained the support of non-affiliated adults for a great cause.
The weather was sunny, unsuitable for a vampire.
We kept walking.
It was a really sunny day.
===========
“… Where did he go?”
“It is impossible to specify the location at this time… Given the circumstances, it is presumed that he has learned the skills of assassins… ”
Bang~
Ariana’s fist hit the desk in response to that direct response.
Assassin.
A skill mainly practiced by assassins.
Capture air and light with aura eruption.
Sound, smell, light.
It is a technique to hide your presence by preventing everything from leaking out.
Although it is such a powerful technology.
It is difficult to learn, and even if you learn it, it is of little use in a head-to-head match.
It was rare for noble children to learn.
Of course, I learned it from Abrasas, who has a high need to sneak around.
“He is the one who caught up with the elves and Yeonguk in an unknown way. Of course, if you think about how to respond… It’s getting dangerous.”
“Is there a different way? Even if all non-affiliated adults rush in, it will be difficult to overturn this gap.”
Ariana asked out of concern.
And the words that came out of the butler’s mouth were words that made all of Abraxas’ efforts in vain.
Of course Abraxas is not stupid.
His plan was one that would actually work.
Unless there is something ‘special’ going on.
“It was luck. I could never have imagined that he would be nominated as a special person within Seonghwangcheong.”
Something ‘special’ that came out of the butler’s mouth.
The special person is the top secret of Seonghwangcheong.
Such a confidential word came out of the butler’s mouth.
This alone is surprising.
What he said next was even more shocking.
“His uniqueness has been proven thanks to being a special candidate. however… Based on the fact that he does not have proper divine power… Because I can now claim to be a fallen saint.”
Just because someone is a saint doesn’t mean they don’t fall.
Of course, since they are human, they sometimes apostatize or become corrupted.
And the apostasy of the saint with the stigmata.
The impact is enormous.
Therefore, when an apostate saint appears, the Holy Hwangcheong
The policy was changed to ensure that it is removed.
No matter what his achievements are.
“I guess it’s for sure… ?”
“Yes.”
The butler handed Ariana a piece of paper with something unknown written on it.
“… Because it has already been approved by the Pope”
Desperate news flowed from his mouth.
Ariana looked at the paper he showed her.
This was written on the paper:
[The Holy Emperor defines him as an apostate.]
Until a trial with a decided outcome is held.
Next 7 days.
