Chapter 95

But it would be better than not trying at all.

I nodded and stood up from my seat.

“Then I’ll contact the Magic Tower and the Holy Kingdom.”

“Good. And don’t act alone from now on. What if that bastard targets you?”

“I understand. I’ll be careful.”

I left the Marquis’ Mansion with Louis seeing me off.

Then I returned to the Count’s Mansion through teleportation. I was quite good at teleportation now. It was the result of practicing whenever I had free time.

Returning to my room, I first created a messenger butterfly and sent it to the Magic Tower, and sent a letter to the Holy Kingdom.

The Holy Kingdom had a barrier that blocked magic, so the messenger butterfly couldn’t go there.

It was a message asking them to send maximum forces since we had identified who the Black Mage was.

Now I just had to wait for their replies.

I was sighing and hoping Iban wouldn’t make any moves before then, when suddenly someone knocked on the door.

“Who is it?”

“It’s Mary, Miss.”

Mary was one of the maids assigned to take care of me.

“Come in.”

With my permission, a maid with a pale face entered.

Then she suddenly knelt down in front of me.

“Miss!”

What? Why is she suddenly acting like this!

I looked down at the maid in confusion, and she bowed her head to me.

“Please help me!”

I didn’t know what she wanted help with, but this maid was one of those who had tormented me under Louis’s orders.

She had kept her mouth shut even though she knew firewood wasn’t being supplied to my room.

But I understood the maid’s position.

The real power in this manor wasn’t powerless me, but Louis. She couldn’t disobey Louis’s orders.

After thinking for a moment, I decided to help the maid stand up.

“Stand up first.”

When I helped her up from her seat, the maid dropped tears like chicken droppings.

I handed her a handkerchief first.

Then the maid sniffled and wiped away her tears.

“What do you want me to help you with?”

When I asked, the maid clutched the handkerchief tightly and said.

“My, my brother is acting strange.”

“Your brother?”

The maid nodded and continued speaking in a tearful voice.

“Since some time ago, his body has been turning black as if rotting away, and pus is flowing from all over his body…”

I instantly hardened my expression.

“Mother says it’s like he’s turning into something that’s not human…”

Something that’s not human.

She was probably talking about a demon beast.

“You’re a holy mage, aren’t you, Miss?”

The maid grabbed my hand while dropping tears.

“Please save my brother.”

I first calmed the maid down.

If her brother was affected by Masu Transformation, I could treat him.

“I think I need to see his condition first.”

“I’ll write down the address for you.”

When I handed her paper and a pen, the maid urgently wrote down the address.

“Here it is.”

I checked the paper the maid handed me while sniffling.

It was a village not too far from the Count’s Mansion.

“I can’t go with you because I’m on duty, but please treat my brother.”

I nodded and put away the paper the maid handed me.

That’s when it happened.

“I know I treated you badly, Miss.”

The maid suddenly made a confession while sniffling.

“I kept quiet even though I knew firewood wasn’t being supplied to your room on time, and I stayed silent even though I knew you were being abused by the Young Count.”

The maid clutched the handkerchief tightly. Her knuckles turned white from gripping the handkerchief.

“I’m truly sorry, Miss… I know I’m not in a position to make such a request of you.”

The maid hung her head and dropped tears.

“But if not you, Miss, my brother… my brother won’t get better…”

The maid spoke in a trembling voice and knelt in front of me again.

“Please save my brother, Miss!”

I looked down at the maid and quietly helped her stand up.

“I understand. The real power in this manor was actually Louis, no, my brother. You must have been scared to oppose my brother.”

The maid looked at me with red, sniffling eyes.

“You all did it to survive too.”

“Miss…”

“So you don’t need to apologize that much.”

At my words, the maid seemed moved and burst into loud tears.

“Thank you for apologizing.”

The maid hugged me and cried loudly.

I patted the maid and immediately called Kaisis to my room.

“Kai, it seems there are more people undergoing Masu Transformation. I think we need to go take a look.”

At my words, Kaisis nodded.

I told the maid I’d be back soon and not to worry too much, then teleported with Kaisis to the address she had written down.

The place we arrived at was a village shrouded in thick fog.

It was close enough to the Count’s Mansion that I could teleport there, but the weather was completely different.

I looked around with a frown.

A foul smell like something rotting kept wafting around.

I suddenly thought that maybe Masu Transformation wasn’t limited to just the maid’s brother.

I knocked on the door of the house at the address the maid had given me.

Then a woman with a pale face came out from inside.

She seemed quite old, so she appeared to be the maid’s mother.

When she saw me and Kaisis, she seemed to realize I was a noble and quickly bowed.

“Hello, I’m Rene from the Sauver County.”

“The Sauver County is where my daughter works… Could it be…?”

The woman who raised her head looked at me blankly.

“The holy mage?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

When I nodded, the woman burst into tears.

“How did you come all the way here…”

“Your daughter told me that her brother was sick.”

“Ah…”

The woman cried for a while, then let me and Kaisis into the house.

“Thank you so much. For coming all the way here…”

“You can thank me after the treatment is finished. Where is the child?”

When I asked, the woman guided us to the child’s room.

When we arrived at the child’s room, a thick stench hit my nose. It was a characteristic commonly found in people who had undergone Masu Transformation.

I opened the door and entered, where I saw a girl whose skin was rotting black and who was suffering in pain.

“It’s serious.”

When I said this while examining the child, the woman burst into tears again.

“Can she be treated?”

“It’s possible.”

I positioned myself and sat down beside the child.

The child was groaning but still hadn’t lost consciousness.

“Hello.”

“Wh, who are you?”

“I’m the person your sister serves.”

When I introduced myself, the child parted her lips and stared at me.

“Are, are you a noble?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

Suddenly, the child’s face turned pale.

Then she tried to get down from the bed to greet me. I hurriedly laid the child back down.

“You don’t need to greet me.”

“B, but my sister said I must always greet noble lords politely…”

“You don’t have to with me.”

She probably told her sister how frightening nobles were while working as a maid.

The reason she tormented me while fearing nobles was probably because she was more afraid of Lewis than powerless me.

Thinking this way, I almost let out a sigh.

I put aside thoughts about Lewis for a moment and looked down at the child.

I understood that the child was afraid of me.

But I wasn’t such a heartless noble that I would beat someone for not greeting me.

I had no intention of doing so either.

When I laid her back down, the child looked up at me with worried eyes.

“What’s your name?”

“It’s Luca.”

“I see, Luca. I’m going to treat you now, is that okay?”

“You’re going to treat me?”

When I nodded, Luca’s eyes sparkled.

“C, can I get better?”

“Of course, naturally.”

Suddenly, clear tears welled up in the child’s eyes.

“R, really? I won’t die?”

“Yes, now that I’m here, you won’t die, Luca.”

The child wiped her tears with her sleeve and reached out her hand toward me.

“Thank you. Thank you so much…”

“Good. But it might hurt a little. Can you bear it?”

People who had been affected by Masu Transformation would sometimes shake violently or have seizures during treatment.

These could be symptoms that occurred during the healing process.

When I asked, Luca nodded with determined eyes.

“Yes, I can bear it.”

“Good.”

I immediately grasped Luca’s hand.

And as I drew up my magic power, I could see transparent golden light flowing into Luca’s hand along mine.

“Does it hurt, Luca?”
