Chapter 92

I stood up from my seat.

However, my magical power hadn’t fully recovered yet to go to the North.

I thought I should wait until my magical power recovered before heading to the North, and sat back down in the chair.

That’s when it happened.

A maid knocked on my bedroom door.

“Miss, it’s time to attend dinner.”

Come to think of it, it was already time for dinner.

I left my room and headed to the dining room.

In the dining room were Louis and Count Sauver.

“Rene, you’re here.”

Count Sauver smiled gently at me.

Louis seemed uncomfortable with my arrival, his brow slightly furrowed.

I’m uncomfortable with you too.

I gave a light greeting to Count Sauver and sat in the chair the maid had pulled out for me.

“You weren’t seen all day today, where did you go?”

“Just…”

I was about to brush it off, but then thought ‘Count Sauver already knows I’m a holy mage anyway, so why bother?’ and decided to tell the truth.

“I went to the forest where people are being transformed into demon beasts.”

“I see, so you went… What?”

Suddenly, Count Sauver, who was lifting his water glass, was startled and turned to look at me.

I calmly drank my water and set the glass down.

Count Sauver’s eyes were so wide they looked like they might pop out.

“Where did you say you went…?”

Count Sauver asked again as if he couldn’t believe it. I calmly answered while fiddling with my water glass.

“To the forest where people are being transformed into demon beasts.”

Count Sauver held his forehead as if dizzy. Then suddenly he shouted loudly!

“How could you go to such a dangerous place alone!”

I was startled by the loud voice and turned to look at Count Sauver.

Louis was also surprised, looking at Count Sauver with wide eyes.

“People being transformed into demon beasts, that means you went to a forest crawling with demon beasts!”

Count Sauver raised his voice again.

“How could you go to such a dangerous place alone…!”

“I didn’t go alone. Kai came with me too.”

Since Louis still didn’t know that Kaisis was a dragon, I deliberately used the fake name ‘Kai’.

But that didn’t seem to be the issue as Count Sauver held his forehead.

“That’s not the problem!”

“Then what is…?”

“The problem is that you went to such a dangerous place alone, or even if you brought a guard knight, just the two of you!”

“Duke Wischurs also came with us.”

“That man…”

As if I had said something wrong, Count Sauver gritted his teeth.

“If my daughter was in such a dangerous place, he should have contacted me immediately!”

Then he slammed the table with a bang.

I was flustered.

Why is he suddenly getting angry?

As I was confused, Count Sauver seemed to be suppressing his anger while breathing heavily.

“From now on, if you’re going to such places, you must tell this father first.”

“Why…?”

I genuinely didn’t understand and tilted my head while asking, making Count Sauver flinch.

Then he looked at me and cleared his throat as if embarrassed.

“I am your father, aren’t I? I can’t just ignore it when my daughter might be in danger. From now on, if you’re going to such places, I’ll assign knights to you.”

“No, that’s not necessary. I just need Kai with me.”

Kaisis was a dragon, so he was a great help in combat.

Other personnel, honestly speaking, weren’t much help to me.

Count Sauver seemed greatly shocked by my words and his mouth fell open.

Why? I was just stating facts.

As I awkwardly fiddled with my water glass, Louis, who had been quiet all along, spoke up.

“Father kindly offered his concern, and your manner of speaking is…”

That kid is picking a fight again.

It was before I could even frown.

“Louis Sauver. Shut your mouth.”

Count Sauver stepped in to discipline Louis.

I looked at Count Sauver in surprise.

Louis also looked at Count Sauver with dissatisfied eyes.

“From now on, you will not mistreat your sister in any way.”

“But, Father. Just now…”

“I will be the one to scold Rene, so don’t interfere.”

Louis closed his mouth at Count Sauver’s firm words.

Was seeing me get hit last time such a shock?

Count Sauver seemed to have changed quite a bit since then.

Count Sauver cleared his throat and then looked at me.

“So why did you go to that forest?”

I finally came to my senses and rejoined the conversation.

“As I mentioned earlier, people are being transformed into demon beasts. I went to investigate that.”

“People being transformed into demon beasts… Wasn’t that only happening in the Holy Kingdom?”

“I thought so too, but it seems to have spread to the Empire as well.”

“Then it’s serious.”

Count Sauver’s expression became serious as well.

“Did you find out why the demon beast transformation is happening?”

“I think I found the medium, but I’m not certain yet.”

“What do you suspect the medium to be?”

“A transparent blue flower called Pimpis flower.”

“A transparent blue flower…”

“If you happen to see one, please let me know immediately. I’ve put up notices around the city, but just in case.”

“Understood. If I find one, I’ll let you know immediately.”

Count Sauver nodded.

“Anyway, from now on, don’t carelessly go to such dangerous places alone, or even with a guard knight.”

Count Sauver spoke to me as if earnestly pleading.

“This is your father’s request.”

I hesitated for a moment.

This was the first time Count Sauver had taken such a humble approach.

I hesitated briefly, then nodded.

I might have to go to dangerous places again in the future, but for now I said I wouldn’t go.

Of course, it was a promise with a high probability of being broken.

* * *

The next day, having fully recovered my magical power, I took Kaisis and teleported to the North.

It was to investigate the Duke’s mansion.

Whether it was Pimpis flowers or something else.

I had to find evidence that Iban might be a black mage.

Since we were going to Iban’s house, who might be a black mage, I had sent a telegram butterfly to the Magic Tower in advance.

Just in case something happened to me, I told them Iban would be the culprit.

Then a quick reply came back from the Magic Tower.

‘We can’t afford to lose a holy mage, so we’ll send our full force to prepare for any possible situation’ was the answer, and the full force that came was….

“Hello….”

It was Shamal.

This was the first time I’d seen him since we parted ways like that last time. Shamal acted extremely awkward when he saw me.

His mind was probably complicated.

“Um, hello, Shamal.”

When I greeted him with an awkward smile, Shamal nodded while turning his gaze away to avoid me.

“But did Shamal come alone?”

“Yeah, if too many mages move around, it might arouse suspicion.”

Ah.

While I was nodding my head, Shamal, who had been avoiding my gaze, immediately got to the point.

“Where are you planning to go?”

“The Duke’s mansion.”

Shamal set the coordinates for the Duke’s mansion and teleported with us.

But for some reason, the place we teleported to was a snow-covered forest.

“Huh?”

When I looked around in confusion, Shamal was also looking around bewildered, seemingly just as flustered.

“I definitely set the coordinates for the Duke’s mansion….”

“But why did we teleport to the forest?”

“There’s probably some kind of barrier around the Duke’s mansion that deflects magic.”

A barrier that deflects magic.

Then we can’t use invisibility magic either? Then how do we get in?

While I was pondering this, Shamal suggested we head to the Duke’s mansion first and started crossing through the forest.

Kai and I followed behind Shamal.

When we arrived near the Duke’s mansion, we concealed ourselves with invisibility magic. Then we headed for the back door used by the servants.

Every manor has a back door.

And compared to the main entrance, the back door was usually less heavily guarded.

But there was still a guard standing there.

We quietly hid in the bushes and waited for the back door to open.

Meanwhile, Shamal narrowed his eyes and looked at the Duke’s mansion as if gauging something.
