Chapter 208

“….”

“Those damn hands that touched Master should stay put and be captured obediently.”

Among the countless floating guns, Helios held a sword in his hand.

It meant he still had Kia to spare even after summoning so many guns.

Hades, who had been watching, clicked his tongue.

‘Minte Limnades really chose a monster like that as her lover.’

Hades grimaced as he felt pain in his abdomen. Should he exile Duke Alpeion first when he becomes Emperor?

Well, fighting with his original personality that would return would come first. That’s a matter for later.

It was the moment Hades clapped his hands as if giving a signal.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

At that moment, all the guns fired as if they had been waiting. Helios swam leisurely through them.

‘Impressive.’

What was absurdly terrifying was that Deflon didn’t die even in this situation.

However, being human, there must be limits. Even if potential had no limits, the body had limits.

“Haha.”

Mint surpassed Hades’ Psychic-type Kia Ability. That’s why he could never brainwash Mint in the end.

However, his Boss was different.

He could protect his brain with disgustingly strong abilities.

He wasn’t an opponent with immunity to brainwashing itself like Mint.

And when the smoke cleared.

Deflon appeared, completely battered.

“….”

Blood was dripping from him, but his eyes alone blazed fiercely.

Yes, this was what Hades wanted to see. The sight of that arrogant pride being broken and facing his own limits.

The sight of defeat.

“Boss, Boss isn’t even worth brainwashing.”

He had no intention of brainwashing. He planned to turn his brain into complete mush.

Deflon could no longer protect his brain. He had already exhausted his strength.

He had to acknowledge that this was thanks to Helios.

“…End it now.”

At Helios’ growling voice as he held the broken sword, Hades frowned.

That was what he intended to do.

“See you in Hell, Boss.”

The moment the elegant voice finished.

Helios felt a strange uneasiness.

Why?

Why was he feeling this way while looking at Deflon who had become unable to fight?

Helios knew he shouldn’t let his guard down, yet he stared at the window for just a brief moment.

He thought of his Master.

She who would be waiting wouldn’t need to step forward. In that case…

“I acknowledge it.”

Deflon let out a quiet, affectionate laugh. The brothers were alike.

In the way they expressed anger through laughter.

“I was mistaken. It would be difficult to kill everyone in the Imperial Palace.”

Deflon readily admitted it.

That in this state, in this situation, because of these opponents, he couldn’t achieve his goal.

“So, it would be better to eliminate the Capital instead.”

Helios’s eyes widened greatly.

What?

At the same time, crack, crack. Cracks began to form on Deflon’s body.

Helios knew what this signal meant.

“Huh?”

“Damn it, 2nd Prince! That’s a Clone Technique!”

Shock flashed across Hades’s face.

That crazy bastard!

Don’t tell me the body that was at the Noble Assembly, that was at the Imperial Palace, was also a clone?

Helios rushed forward and thrust his Sword. It was a meaningless gesture.

Deflon’s body shattered into pieces and crumbled away, and even the bloodstains slowly disappeared.

The only difference from what they had seen at the Limnades Estate was that the bloodstains disappeared very slowly.

What remained were Helios and Hades.

And only a few Nobles who had stayed to fight but had become like borrowed barley sacks.

Helios turned pale.

Then where on earth had the Serial Killer disappeared to?

Where is his real body?

He thought of his Master.

“Is that a honeymoon?”

Her appearance, never giving an answer in the end.

His heart beat anxiously.

* * *

Mint was standing in a vast Open Ground.

This Place was where the Capital’s abandoned garbage gathered.

The flowing Water reeked of rot.

It was also a place that even the lower class and poor people, whom everyone looked down upon, avoided.

Mint slowly turned her gaze while looking at the garbage piled up like mountains. She captured the scenery at a glance.

“…What kind of state is that.”

Mint was the first to run to the alley where Pontos was dying.

Watching her brother’s breath fade away, she was reminded of the Former Marchioness Limnades facing death.

Her birth mother who worried about her until the end even while emaciated and withered.

Like son, like mother. Their final moments were strangely identical.

“…I never told you to go this far.”

Mint had been clear.

It would be good if he could destroy the Crown Prince’s tools. But if it was difficult, protect yourself and avoid it.

There were plenty of other means. Of course, they would have been much more difficult and had lower chances of success.

‘I promised the Former Marchioness.’

But should she have noticed when Pontos, unlike other times, stubbornly insisted that this method was the best?

Pontos’s lips twitched.

Mint recognized it as a movement that had tried to become a smile.

“…10 years, ago too… I should have, done this.”

Mint stared blankly down at her dying brother.

“It should have been, not you, but me, who went…”

Foolishly, was he still carrying in his heart a problem he had said was fine?

Mint couldn’t understand Pontos.

However, she decided not to ignore what she didn’t understand as she usually did.

In the distance, the Limnades Knights she had called were running toward them.

Mint clearly decided what she had to do.

Thanks to Pontos, the plan had been perfectly successful.

When all the plans were finished, he would know too.

“Pontos, you saved more people than you could ever imagine.”

Come to think of it, he was truly a brother who resembled Helios in many ways.

Unnecessarily righteous and with nothing but a strong sense of responsibility.

“…I promised the Marchioness. To protect you, Oppa.”

Her brother, who could no longer even cough, barely managed to open his mouth.

“…Cough, you should call her, Mother.”

“Yes, Mother.”

As Mint waved her hand, Pontos’s body floated up gently.

Pontos’s lips twitched.

After struggling desperately, this time he succeeded in creating something resembling a smile.

Mint immediately told the knights the way to save Pontos.

Then she left the scene.

When I opened my eyes, it was the garbage dump again.

The day Deflon wore the Serial Killer’s mask and infiltrated the Limnades Estate.

During the battle, Mint had left a ‘trace’ on Deflon’s clone.

In other words, she had marked him.

It was close to a gamble. It was an act of embedding her own Kia, and whether she could track Deflon was uncertain.

Most importantly, if a powerhouse like Deflon noticed, tracking would become difficult.

As expected, Deflon noticed the trace left on him, and it seemed like the Kia she had embedded would disappear.

However.

Her Kia trace that seemed to be disappearing ultimately did not vanish.

Moreover, Deflon also seemed not to have noticed.

‘Did I have this kind of ability?’

Mint examined her own abilities, but even though she could use all abilities, there were variations. Since she didn’t use them often, she shouldn’t have been able to use such power.

Moreover, strangely, this Kia trace felt like her power yet also gave off an alien sensation.

Mint realized.

‘So this was ‘Mint’s’ ability.’

That it was the ability of the dead girl.

She couldn’t understand why she was only able to use it now. She could only speculate.

Perhaps the resentment of the dead had clung to the true culprit.

In any case, thanks to this, Mint was able to track Deflon in real time.

Only the main body.

“Do you know that your younger sibling has switched to a new personality?”

And Mint faced the main body that had appeared at this location.

No, since the other party was there first, it would be better to say she had revealed herself.

Mint continued speaking calmly.
