Chapter 82

It seemed like the creature had the ability to attack opponents using sound and vibrations.

I couldn’t deploy defensive magic in time because I was covering my ears from its screaming.

I rolled my body to avoid the black liquid flying toward me. The hem of my dress melted slightly.

As I tried to get up, the one who had made its hands like blades rushed at me.

I had to deploy defensive magic right now.

As I tried to cast defensive magic, the creature with its mouth wide open screamed again.

“Kieeeeeek-!”

It felt like my eardrums would burst.

While I was suffering with my ears covered, the one with blade-like hands swung its giant hand toward me.

I’m going to get hit…!

It was when I was about to give up on my ears and cast defensive magic.

With a fluttering sound, large wings as black as the night sky spread before my eyes.

Kaisis had transformed into a dragon.

The followers hesitated at the dragon’s appearance.

At that moment, Kaisis breathed fire and attacked the followers and beasts.

“Aaaaah!”

The followers began screaming and running away. But Kaisis didn’t let any of them escape.

“Grrrk…!”

Both the beasts and the followers were all burned black, and the beasts began writhing as if trying to regenerate.

I approached the beasts.

Then I drew up my remaining magical power and purified the beasts.

With the beasts’ power weakened, purification was much easier.

Those who returned to human form were no longer breathing.

It seemed that when Masu Transformation progressed completely to the point of losing one’s self, life would end.

I looked down at those who had returned to human form and quietly prayed.

May you go to a good place.

That’s when it happened.

“Kyaaaak-!”

Hazel’s scream echoed through the air.

I urgently turned toward where the scream came from.

Ah, right. The binding spell!

I hadn’t paid attention to the binding spell while fighting the beasts.

Before I knew it, the leader who had captured Hazel was pressing a sharp dagger to Hazel’s throat.

I gritted my teeth.

“Let the child go!”

“I can’t do that.”

The man pressed the sword close to Hazel’s throat, then shouted at me as I tried to cast magic.

“Stay still! Move even a little and this child’s life is over!”

I glared at the man while drawing up my magical power.

“Holy Mage.”

The man looked at me with a vile smile.

“Do you want to save this child?”

Then he gestured toward a sword lying on the ground and said.

“Then kill yourself.”

“What?”

“I said kill yourself.”

Kaisis roared fiercely upon hearing the man’s words. Then he spread his large wings and wrapped them around me protectively.

But the sword was pressed against Hazel’s throat.

I bit my lips and picked up the sword lying on the ground.

Then I pretended to bring it to my throat while looking at Hazel.

I was planning to teleport Hazel.

But not being in contact with Hazel right now, I wondered if I could teleport her successfully.

But I had to try.

Hazel looked at me with tears in her eyes.

I smiled to convey that she shouldn’t worry.

“Yes, that’s what befits a Holy Mage who loves humans.”

“Before I kill myself, may I ask just one thing?”

“By all means.”

“Why are you people doing this?”

“The reasons are various. Some want to gain eternal life, some hate humans. The reasons are all different, but we all share the desire to be of help to that person.”

“Do you know who that person is?”

“Only the highest-ranking executives know.”

“You pledge loyalty to someone you don’t even know?”

“Because that person is our messiah.”

What messiah nonsense.

When I lifted the corner of my mouth mockingly, the man pressed the sword even closer to Hazel’s throat and nodded at me.

“Now, kill yourself.”

Having drawn up my magical power in the meantime, I pretended to bring the sword to my throat while activating magic.

Suddenly Hazel’s body was enveloped in golden light and…

“Sister!”

She teleported next to me.

“Hazel.”

I immediately lowered the sword.

The man looked down at his empty hands with a bewildered face.

“I won’t do something like suicide. You’re no match for me.”

When I smiled crookedly as Louis Sauver had taught me, the man trembled and turned around to start running away.

That’s when it happened.

Kaisis, who had returned to human form, snatched the sword from my hand and threw it at the man.

“Kheuk…!”

The sword that flew through the air pierced the man’s chest.

I immediately covered Hazel’s eyes as soon as Kaisis threw the sword.

The man who collapsed below the altar twitched and trembled.

I left Hazel with Kaisis and approached the man.

“Where are those executives you people talk about?”

“That, is…”

Suddenly a black magic circle appeared on the man’s throat and strangled him.

A prohibition had been activated.

The man clawed at his throat while choking, then died with his eyes rolled back.

I quietly watched the man who had stopped breathing, then came down below the altar.

Hazel was looking at me.

“Sister…”

I went in front of Hazel and knelt down.

“It’s all over now, Hazel.”

Suddenly clear tears welled up in Hazel’s eyes.

Hazel silently let tears fall, then ran into my arms.

“I was sca-scared, *hic*, I was scared…”

“It’s okay now, Hazel. It’s okay.”

It was when I was patting Hazel’s back.

Kaisis’s eyes turned toward somewhere. I turned my head following Kaisis.

There, Hazel’s foster parents were secretly escaping from the cave.

Kaisis asked with an expressionless face.

“Should I catch them?”

“No. I’ll go.”

I left Hazel with Kaisis and followed after the foster parents.

“You two there. Stop.”

When I called out to the two people, Hazel’s foster parents flinched and came to a halt.

“So this is why you adopted the child? To offer her as a sacrifice?”

“We, we…”

Hazel’s foster parents turned to look at me with pale faces.

I quietly glared at Hazel’s foster parents in the darkness. Hazel’s foster parents suddenly dropped to their knees on the ground.

“We did it because we love Hazel. We, we wanted Hazel to live eternally…”

“You wanted her to live eternally…”

“Lord Anton told us so. He said that people offered as sacrifices would live eternally by his side…”

Anton must be referring to that man who had just died from the prohibition spell.

I snorted and looked down at Hazel’s foster parents.

“You believed that?”

“We, we believed it. Because we believed it, we wanted Hazel to live eternally…”

“You two. Why do you follow the Black Mage?”

“We, we also for eternal life…”

“Then why didn’t you offer each other as sacrifices instead of Hazel?”

“What…?”

Hazel’s foster parents looked dumbfounded.

If they desired eternal life so much, they could have just offered each other as sacrifices.

“But, but we…”

“You what.”

“We, we…”

The foster parents couldn’t continue their words.

They must have been afraid of their own deaths. They probably weren’t even sure if eternal life really existed.

So they must have tried to experiment through Hazel.

What filthy bastards.

“Do I really need to keep you two alive?”

When I muttered the question, the foster parents’ faces turned pale.

“Please, please spare us!”

The foster parents buried their heads on the ground and pleaded. I looked at the two of them and snapped my fingers.

Then the two people’s figures disappeared in an instant.

I transported the two people to the middle of the sea.

If they managed to cross the sea and return alive, then they would be destined to live. If they died, then it couldn’t be helped.

After confirming that the foster parents had disappeared from sight, I entered the cave.

Hazel was looking around anxiously, and when she spotted me, she ran over.

“Sister!”

“You must have been very scared, Hazel.”

Hazel shook her head.

“I believed that you would come for me.”

To think they tried to kill such a pure and lovely child.

I was once again infuriated by the foster parents’ despicable behavior.

I held Hazel in my arms and left the cave together with Kaisis.

Then I carefully asked Hazel.

“Would you like to live with me, Hazel?”
