Chapter 291

TL: Zimmings

Isaac’s knock became more and more violent.

Knock! Knock!

“Open the door. I’m not in a good mood.”

Why is he like that...

I was flustered. After burying Adrian in a blanket, I came back to my senses and quickly hid him in the dressing room instead.

Then I shouted outside the room.

“I need to get ready to meet the Duke of Amity.”

“Get ready. I’ll be watching.”

I’ve got a problem.

Adrian is going to die!

I closed my eyes tightly and shouted, trying to reassure myself that everything will work out.

“What do I have to do with your bad mood!”

“Kid, how could you say such a thing... I don’t remember raising you to be so heartless!”

“When did Isaac raise me? I raised Isaac!”

“You’re my younger sister so I raised you! Right? I’m a grown-up, and you’re...!”

“I’m mature! Isaac, you didn’t even eat carrots!”

He became quiet as if he were shocked.

In the meantime, I rushed into the dressing room and told Adrian.

“Can you jump off the terrace?”

“.......”

“You can’t do it because you’re not feeling well? What should I do? My room is surrounded by a strong barrier, so we can’t use teleportation.”

That’s why I also secretly brought him from the back door. Right now, I have issued an emergency warning, so the security must have become stricter.

Originally, I tried to hide Adrian in a carrige under the pretext of going to see the Duke of Amity.

Adrian laughed when I panicked.

“I can jump.”

“Really? Then as soon as you jump off the terrace, go towards the blue roof. It’s a separate house, but the barrier is weak there. You have to use teleportation there.”

“Yes.”

“Also, Adrian...”

“Say it.”

“I want to show you something.......”

I touched the etwal and looked up to him.

‘I have to let him meet Gremory.’

Adrian shook his head.

“I know what you mean, but later.”

“But.......”

“You don’t have the strength to call out the devil again today.”

“......I need to show you Gremory as soon as possible.”

“I know.”

I put the etwal in my pocket, disappointed. Then I ran to the terrace and looked down.

‘Good, nobody’s here.’

“Right now.”

As I said that, Adrian swooped down to the terrace.

From outside the room, I heard Isaac’s voice again.

“It’s not that I couldn’t eat carrots, I didn’t want to eat them! I didn’t do it because it tasted bad!”

“That means you can’t eat it.”

“Oh, it’s not like that.”

I was looking at Adrian while talking to Isaac. He smiled and said, “Go in.”

I shook my hand to tell him to go quickly, but Adrian didn’t move, he urged me to enter first.

I had no choice but to close the terrace window. However, he saw me for a long time and finally went back.

‘Ugh, it tickles.’

My chest felt tickly.

It felt very strange.

I sighed and opened the door.

“Why, did you miss my room so much?”

As soon as I opened the door, Isaac came into my room and looked inside.

Only the dim lights illuminated the surroundings, the prison also gave off a musty smell.

I saw Mina curled up inside the iron cage. I squatted in front of her cage.

“... What are you trying to do with me?”

“That’s what I want to ask you. What were you going to do with me?”

Mina glared sharply at me.

“Stop here, Leblaine. So that I can forgive you for. Please don’t cross the line.”

I chuckled.

“What happens if you forgive me? Will this war be over?”

“We can finish it. If we work together.”

“How?”

“Let’s work together to mediate the war between Dubblede and the temple. Then there will definitely be a breakthrough.”

“So what happens after that?”

“.......”

“After that, I’ll have to die eventually. Because you and the temple can’t give up sealing the evil God. Isn’t it?

Mina’s expression turned sad.

“That’s... that’s...”

“Then let’s do this.”

“......What?”

“No matter how much I think about it, it feel so unfair to die alone. So if you die, I’ll die too. What do you think? It’s fairness that you like.”

“Leblaine, you...”

“If you die, I’ll be a sacrifice too. Then Dubblede and the temple don’t have to fight anymore.”

“.......”

“Peace will come. The peace you’ve been hoping for so much...”

“Do you remember what you said last time? That you were willing to die if you were in my shoes.”

I clapped my hands and laughed like a child.

“Now, it’s your time to choose.”

“.......”

“Why? Why aren’t you answering? Huh? You said you were willing to die for the country and for peace.”

“I, I...”

I changed my expression in an instant and stared fiercely at her.

“You can’t?”

“.......”

“Scary, huh? Your life is precious? It’s much more unfair and painful than you think to die for others, right?!”

“.......”

Mina’s expression froze. She looked at me with a stiff face, and I said after biting the soft flesh in my mouth.

“You don’t know even if you come all the way here? There is no justice in this war.”

“No, I... I... for the sake of this world...”

She bowed her head. Tears fell on the cold floor.

“Hypocrite.”

Her shoulders flinched.

“A liar.”

Her slender shoulders shook as she moved her hands to her face.

“I hate people like you the most. Yes, I know my previous life. You were loved, and I was trapped in a cage.”

She jerked and looked up.

“As expected, you stole what’s mine?”

“Yes. I took it all away. As you said, I’m a villain. How do you feel, Mina?”

Mina bit her lips. Red blood flowed down from her dry lips.

Mina then let out a scream.

“Bad girl. You mean... Terrible girl! I hate you!”

“Me too. I hate you, you hypocrite.”

“Yes! I’m a hypocrite! I wanted you to die. So I did what the temple told me to do! But this is all because of you! To get rid of a bad girl like you......!”

“Good. Cut.”

Mina’s eyes widened, and the light in the basement was brightly lit.

The gate keepers were holding something around the prison.

Mina murmured.

“Video stone...?”
