The two, who had fallen eerily silent as if telling a lie, glanced at Ian.

It feels like Ive become a villain leader.

With that thought, Ian continued.

Charlotte, it seems you dislike Tessia more for being a fairy than for being a vampire. Is that right?

Charlotte nodded.

Thats right. Being one of the demonic races is disgusting, of course.

Why is that?

Im curious about that too. Why is that, Charlotte?

Tessia chimed in, leaning towards Ian.

Charlotte narrowed her brow.

Are you asking sincerely, gremlin? As a typical high fairy, you dont know about the relations between fairies and immortals?

Oh? Im a high fairy?

Tessia countered.

Ian looked down at her, leaning expectantly against his feet.

You dont know your own identity?

Yes. Didnt I mention it? I dont exactly know who I am.

Tessia gave a sheepish smile.

My earliest memory is being tied up, screaming in that horrible laboratory. I have no memories before that. Even my name only barely resurfaced.

The Bloody Queen had amnesia?

Come to think of it, he did recall her saying something similar yesterday.

Tessia added,

The reason I can never die is because I have to get revenge, but I also need to find out who I really am.

Ha! As expected, a fairys essence isnt in their memory. Its an innate vileness. Born traitors, Id say.

Charlotte scoffed derisively.

Tessia frowned.

If youre going to insult me like that, at least tell me the reason.

In the past, you fairies were allied with us immortals. We defended our territories together against the humans.

A low rumbling reverberated in Charlottes voice.

Everything changed when the war with the demonic races began. Humans think all immortals sided with the demonic races, but thats not true. Immortals were divided between humans and demons. And the same went for you fairies. The only difference was that more of you sided with the humans, and you did so a bit sooner.

Charlotte looked at Tessia.

You started calling yourselves high elves. Those who sided with the demons were called dark fairies, no longer considered kin. Unlike us who still viewed those of differing beliefs as kindred, you did not extend that courtesy to your own. Then one day, the black wall divided the continent. And do you know what was the first thing you did after that?

What was it?

You drove the immortals out of the south. But most of them werent on the demonic side at all. They had simply not allied with the humans or shared power with them, like you did.

It seemed to be an age-old bitter grudge.ReAd latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

Ians gaze turned to her. After briefly meeting his eyes, Charlotte could not overcome her instincts and averted her gaze. Ians cold voice followed.

Look me in the eyes. Now.

Ugh

Charlottes gaze was drawn back to Ians eyes as if pulled.

Ripples appeared in his orange irises.

For you, death might even be a blessing. So I wont kill you. But I will cut off your hands. So you can never wield a weapon again. Of course, you wont be able to leave me either.

..

Charlotte could not even make a sound, as if completely overwhelmed by him.

Ian smiled.

Answer.

Understood

Good.

Ian smiled again.

Charlotte hurriedly turned her head away.

An eerie silence fell over the wagon, but Ian leaned back comfortably against the backrest. He felt like he had truly become the leader of villains, but he didnt feel bad about it.

Quite the opposite, in fact.

Being honest, trying to persuade clients or traveling companions had often been quite a bother and tiring experience up until now.

As he satisfiedly looked back down at the map, Tessia whispered from the drivers bench.

Feels like weve become a community of fate, Charlotte.

Without even turning back, Charlotte muttered.

Dont you know how to shut up?

Ive spent a long time alone, you see. During that time, I mostly just talked to beasts. Unfortunately, they cant talk back, unlike you.

Damn it

As Charlotte sighed, Ian spoke up while folding the map.

We should probably pass through town by around midday tomorrow.

Tessia and Charlotte flinched as they looked back at him.

Though he thought,

To have to enter a village with these two

Ian continued nonchalantly.

At least there, I hope you two can refrain from fighting and keep quiet.

He had no intention of skipping the village stay because of them.

A warm bed and somewhat decent food all the more so.
