「A Careless Remark」

The drawing that acco was that of a rhombus-shaped jewel

While a description of the jeritten beside the drawing, I could tell that it was one of the Blade Heart Clan’s 『Spirit Contract Crystal』

“Zahar-dono, is the jewel recorded here still within the treasury?”

After showing hiently shaking his head

“Unfortunately, this iteifted to the HirukuTheocracy soo”

Chiome and I immediately understood what he said meant

Without a shadow of a doubt, Sasuke had been the one to break in and escape

After reading the treasury’s records, he left for the Hiruku Theocracy and fell into the Pope’s hands…… that was a rough estimate of what happened at least

Chiome’s eyes had been focused on the 『Spirit Contract Crystal』’s drawing ever since I showed it to her, but she slowly closed thehts of her departed brother overwhelmed her

Nina suddenly stepped forith a grimace on her face when she saw the solared at Chiome when she opened her mouth

“I thought it was a bit strange, but you’re searching for that beastrant broke into the royal family’s treasury! What’s your relationshi+p with that thief!?”

Faced with her threatening attitude, Lille’s face went pale as she looked between Nina andas she tried and failed to couard

Nina must have realized that she was no match for Chio hands from here

Did her serious personality allow her to ignore this difference in strength, or was her prejudice against beastment?

Zaharfor, but had pretended to not having noticed anything up ‘till now He tried to reel Nina’s behavior in but Chio

“……Are you gonna do so into the thief’s actions?”

A new cold fire was ignited in Chio to the point where her breath became visible

Theice crystals that reflected the light froic tools

Nina and the others knew of Chioht with Palermo

While she looked like a young girl, her ability wasn’t sohts

Like frogs caught in a serpent’s glare, fear froze the people around us in place

Nina’s presu Chiorets over Sasuke’s death at the hands of the Hiruku to the surface

The stone floor froze over when Chiole measured step forward

The unpleasant sound of ice breaking and reforhout the room

“Do you kno that jewel found its way into this treasury? Why do you think my brethren are forced to hide in the mountains, lest they be placed in chains in human towns? Do you have any idea how many of my people have been hated, chased and chaptered by humans?”

“Th-That……”

Her voice was quiet and nearly silent, yet was seeped in icy blood lust

Nina chocked on her oord

s as cold sweat ran down her neck

I felt an unseen blade I felt atbad would happen if Chiome wasn’t stopped

“That’s enough, Chiome-dono”

The chill slightly lessened when I called out to her

“Princess Lille toldwill publicly declare to free the beastless to take out your anger on Nina Wouldn’t it be more productive for you to watch your freed brethren and see what kind of treatment they received?”

Not really……but there wasquestions I knew the answer to If the justification behind her raised fist was shaken, her actions would become clouded by doubt

“Lille-dono, it is toht?”

Lille picked up on what I was trying to accomplish and repeatedly nodded her head she affirmed my statements
