Chapter 295

TL: Zimmings

I don’t know what PvP means, but I speculated that it must be a wicked and terrible word.

Otherwise, the Duke of Grimoire’s aura couldn’t be that cold.

He took a bundle of parchment out of his arms. These are the letters I sent because the patterns on the corners of the parchment are very familiar.

“You were pretty arrogant.”

I lowered my head casually.

“Nice to meet you, duke.”

“... Do you think I’m someone who doesn’t even know the basic manners of greeting?”

“No way. I’ve heard a lot about the duke. It’s an honor to meet someone I admire.”

“... But you acted unlike what I heard?”

“That’s not true. I know that the duke is a benevolent person who closes his eyes to ignorant mistakes.”

“... Did your age regenerate?

On the surface, I laughed, but on the inside I was very annoyed.

‘I can’t communicate!’

He’s also sarcastic with letters and communication. Now, no matter what I say, it will be replied sarcastically.

The Duke of Grimoire bowed his head lightly and smiled.

“You’re a really ferocious kid.”

He was indeed a wild beast that hadn’t been at the empire for decades. There was a creepy feeling of intimidation even in his shortest words.

Seria, who had been hiding in Dubblede to catch traffickers of her orphanage, called the guards in a hurry.

“So why did you come to see me? I’m sure you didn’t come to catch me just to reply to me sarcastically.”

“Are you saying that I was sarcastic?”

“I think it’s a little too much for an adult. I’m sorry-”

“I can see clearly how your father has taught you.”

I groaned and licked my lips.

That’s the number one thing people say to children.

[How did your parents teach you?]

I can hear a sound in my head. It was a sign of switching to attacks.

I clapped my hands and smiled brightly.

“Yes, my father’s theory is, ‘Return as much as you have received,’ and I am a good daughter who faithfully follows my father’s instructions! I would do it even until my hair turns gray.”

How well does Grimoire teach his bloodlines when he sends a childish letter like ‘You’re joking?’ anyway?

“I guess so. If it was me, I would give my child peace and affection.”

Having been in the wild like Dubblede, he also has a temper like me.

“You have a great family! I’d be really happy if I were your child, no, niece.”

A fight like the one above continued.

The lieutenant who accompanied the Duke of Grimoire said, “S- sir.” and did not know what to do, while Seria and the chairman also said, “Lady....”

Duke Grimoire, who was angry, clenched his teeth.

“You say something you don’t know about.”

“Oh my. I’m sorry.

“I don’t intend to engage in any more talk with you, who haven’t even reach half of my age.”

“That’s great. So, what are you doing?”

“Follow me.”

“Isn’t ‘don’t follow strangers’ the first thing mothers teach their children?”

Karim Grimoire.

The predecessor of Grimoire disappeared.

***

With the help of the imperial palace, Duke Grimoire searched throughout the empire, but Karim Grimoire could not be seen for more than five days.

I looked out the window at the streets where the Grimoire soldiers roamed.

The chairman told me what he received from Amjo.

“It was a week ago that Karim Grimoire disappeared.”

“The duke came to me on the second day after his father disappeared.”

“Karim Grimoire was often absent for a day or two. But since he hasn’t revealed his location for more than two days, it seems that Grimoire, feeling suspicious, has come to visit you.”

“He was wondering if I knew something because of the letter I sent him.”

Two days passed, and even on the third day, a search order was issued because traces of him could not be seen.

While tapping on the window frame, I looked back at the chairman.

“Is it the temple?”

“I don’t know.”

“Should I check with Mina?”

“It’s been two days since she lost consciousness, so how can she answer?”

“That’s right...”

Mina could not close the ‘passage’ after summoning Amy. She lacked her divine power to keep the devil without etwal, and she lost consciousness two days ago.

Since she is a precious hostage, I supplement her divine power enough to survive through mana stone.

“How about waking her up?”

“She will, if she recovers more than 30% of her divine power.”

That was something I personally realized with frequent fainting.

‘There is no mana stone enough to restore Mina’s divine power by more than 30 percent.’

Even now, an astronomical amount of mana stone is being used to save Mina’s life.

I could ask Adrian to supplement the divine power, but he gave me a tremendous amount of divine power the other day, and I exhausted most of my divine power due to Mina’s kidnapping.

“I’m still short of divine power, and I can’t share it.”

“Hmm...”

Chul-soo used to refer to this as a “bottomless poison.”

The chairman poured tea into the teacup and said,

“What do you think about returning etwal?”

“It’ll be easier to maintain Amy, so you can wake her up...”

“Never.”

We looked at each other and laughed as if it was ridiculous.

‘Then what should I do?’

If I find the predecessor of Grimoire, I might be able to figure out what he was talking about with Mina.

If I’m lucky, I might be able to get Grimoire’s help in this war.

It was the moment I was contemplating.

The communication device glistened and Seria’s voice was heard.

[There are people who expressed their intention to buy blue spinel.]

“That’s a relief! Iit’s a huge amount of money, so I was wondering if it would sell.”

[Before selling, they want to check the utility of the blue spinel. They need to recharge divine power on the empty spinel. What should I do?]

“Yes, I’ll go.”

I quickly picked up my coat.
