Chapter 288

Two Brothers Fainting in Agony [Part 2]

“ “ “ “Then, why is Emma-sama absent from school?!” ” ” ”

Right. ...I wonder why? George was also full of questions.

‘Why does Lady Joanna look exactly the same as Minato?’

‘Why does nobody say anything about a lady around forty years old wearing a uniform?’

‘Why do the people who spoke ill of Emma suddenly worry about her?’Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

[Something] was definitely odd here.

“I also want to know.”

Suddenly, the brothers heard a familiar, nostalgic voice.

‘No way... even her voice too...‘ thought George and William with dread.

“N-Nii-sama! What to do? It’s Lady Joanna.”

I had come to assume that this girl, who was once rumored to be the holy maiden, was the cause of my charm magic’s awful ineffectiveness. I first thought it was an absurd conjecture, but the more I looked into it, the more I found that my charm magic had weak efficacy against young ladies and noble sons who got along well with Emma Stuart. It even turned completely null against the male students who gave Emma Stuart sweets during lunch break.

People made fun of her as the fake holy maiden, but could it be that she was a real one?

I was fully aware that the Church’s holy maidens had no holy powers, but I couldn’t just ignore such a striking influence she had on my magic.

If the rumors were true, the sickly girl was now nearing death. If that were the case, so be it. I couldn’t care less.

The problem was if that weren’t the case.

If that girl had the power to repel magic, I must take immediate measures against her.

I held the pendant hanging on my neck. Inside this pendant was a magic stone.

Few people knew about this function of magic stones, but other than storing magic, magic stones also had the power to amplify magic. Even if a magician appeared, they actually wouldn’t be able to do much without magic stones. Only when a magic stone and magician were present in the same place could large-scale magic be activated without any interruption.

It was a pity I couldn’t meet Emma Stuart, but I would try casting a powerful charm spell on her brothers first.

My heart stung when thinking that I had to use such a precious magic stone for this purpose, but a small sacrifice might be necessary for great achievements.

“George Stuart. William Stuart. Tell me what Emma Stuart is doing now.”
