Vol 4 Chapter 31 (2/2)
The rusty wolance and sneered at her
But what of it? Mirepoc’s ability was that of logistical support She would obviously not coht in the front line If a time comes where she has to kill, she will definitely be able to do so When the moment comes, she will not hesitate
However, Mirepoc still felt so like defeat at the woman’s words
A while ago, Mirepoc spoke with Enlike He was once the Indulging God Cult’s Meat but took over the body of the Monster Zatoh Now he collaborated with the Armed Librarians
Mirepoc slightly hesitated while talking with him She once ordered Noloty to kill him
However, Enlike said that he didn’t mind
“At that point in time, it was the proper decision”
Mirepoc felt relieved
“I also think that way Noloty’s judght”
“That’s right”
Enlike looked at Mirepoc with cold, gloomy eyes
In fact, there was some anxiety Perhaps Noloty’s decision wasn’t correct?
“But I respect Noloty”
“Huh?”
“It doesn’twhat she wants to
She’s different from me, and probably from you as well”
“That is the wrong way to act as an Armed Librarian”
“Probably”
That was everything she spoke with Enlike about
Thinking about it, she also felt like she lost to Noloty in so – but while she thought so, as that sense of defeat she felt?
They were siainst that rusty woainst Noloty
What was that feeling?
While thinking of this, Mirepoc went to sleep
“Mattalast began ?”
Al in She saw the lights in Mirepoc’s rooo
Should I kill Mirepoc iht
But she determined it wasn’t efficient
Currently, it was a three-way struggle between her, the Ar God Cult The Cult hasn’t made a move yet, but they will soon come to attack Alme and the Armed Librarians
For Al in power, this situation was favorable
Al was always composed
“I should look for Parney’s Book”
Alhttime city
For a few days afterwards, Fullbeck City was at peace The massacre at Keith’s mansion wasn’t reported in the newspapers He probably used his power to silence them
Mirepoc and Mattalast started going around the city Mattalast started exhaustively scouring places that had Books and Mirepoc tried following Parney’s footsteps
They kept in touch from time to time and continued their research
The rusty woation advanced
At night, they rejoined in the hotel
“Did you find Parney’s Book?”
Mattalast shook his head
“I didn’t find any clues either”
It was understandable They have been searching for Parney Parlmanta’s Book fro God Cult There’s no way it would be found so easily
“Is it really in this city?”
“We have no choice but to look for it More importantly, how’s your side?”
Mirepoc thought for a while
“I heard testimony from several related persons Unfortunately I found no evidence Parney was involved with the Indulging God Cult, but I have found plenty of points of suspicion”
“What do you mean?”
“Some say that Parney Parlmanta’s popularity had been fabricated”
“Interesting”
Mattalast leaned forward
“Parney was atime From those who knew her at the ti froed”
“Her talent bloomed, didn’t it?”
“It seely beca She had no soul in her acting – just the technique She was completely a third-rate actress Many people claimed this here and there
There were those who praised her and those who criticized her I don’t know enough so I don’t really understand, but they seem incredibly divided in opinion
Furthermore, when people have criticized her, there were countless testi put under pressure You’ve also said this, Mattalast-san Parney’s acting wasn’t a big deal”
“…I did”
“I haven’t been able to confirm this, but there’s also talk about people who consistently bad erased Alternatively, there were also many cases of actresses who seemed like they could beconed their parts”
“…So what do you think about that?”
“I have one guess about Parney”
“What do you mean?”
“Parney probably belonged to the Indulging God Cult I believe the Cult made secret maneuvers from behind the scenes for her success”
Mirepoc continued
“I believe that Parney was one of the Indulging God Cult’s leaders – the people referred to as True Men”
They knew the fact that there were several different ranks inside the Cult
The loere Meats The bo Town, Enlike and the rest ere eaten by the Monster, the wo the Mokkania incident, and more They were cattle with the shape of a human that existed only to be used
Above theular members From Enlike’s story they found out that they were called False Men From what the Armed Librarians side had been able to confirm so far, they were men such as Winkeny and Locolo from the Mokkania incident as well as the cloth-user Bora Witch shi+ron and the Monster Zatoh probably also belonged to that category
The position above it was that of True Men Thus far they only al Crukessa and Ganbanzel Grof
Do what your heart desires The only teaching of the Indulging God Cult applied just for the True Men Everyone else existed only to serve as the True Men’s ars
“Do all that your heart desires This is the teaching of the Indulging God Cult and the only principle behind those who are called True Men
Parney wished to beco God Cult and used underhanded methods to achieve that position”
Mattalast thought for a while
“You’re only guessing, but that guess seeht”
Mirepoc felt relieved at this approval
“But Parney was erased That was probably also the Indulging God Cult’s doing”
“Perhaps the reason for her erasure was her connection with Lascall Othello”
“Perhaps”
The conversation ended there Their entire conversation was made of speculation Since they couldn’t find Parney’s Book at present, they couldn’t know anything else
“Besides, we don’t really understand the Indulging God Cult”
Mirepoc looked outside the
“Do what your heart desires This is a natural idea at some level Everyone in this world follows their desires”
She looked at the city’s lights through theand at the various people living underneath those lights
“There are countless women ant to become actresses just like Parney in this city There are al Even Ganbanzel who desires power is just like us Armed Librarians”
“…They’re different Normal people fulfill their desires in accordance to law and justice The Indulging God Cult commits evil for their cause”
“But there are also plenty of people who commit evil for their cause in the world”
Mirepoc recalled Keith’s fat face
“If the True Men had no subordinates to follow theal would be mere criminals Ganbanzel would be a powerless man Parney would be an unsuccessful actress
What makes them the Armed Librarians’ ene them”
“…I see”
“Why do the False Men serve the True Men? They’re all readily sub as far as throwing away their lives for them
I don’t believe Cigal and Ganbanzel have had that sort of charisma
I wonder just what False Men think about when they join the Cult?”
“Well, never mind that Every person has their own beliefs”
“Right”
This ed the subject
“Speaking of which, what about the rusty woman?”
“Seems like she’s still in the city There were several eyewitnesses She even showed herself to the one I introduced you to, Kalon-kun”
Mirepoc was startled
“Is he fine?”
“It would be more of a fuss if he was killed Seems like she just asked him about Lascall and went off”
“Why did she go to Kalon’s?”
“Inspecting the ene how far we’ve reached”
That wo for Parney Parlmanta’s Book – so that she could conceal the truth about Lascall Othello
“How about we try to capture her beforeon?”
“I have been looking for her But it didn’t go well I can’t seem to find her”
“You can’t?”
“She probably has some ability She seems to be able to perceive my approach and run away”
“An ability like that of the Director’s, isn’t it…”
“It ht be the same Sensory Threads aren’t that difficult and rare of an ability”
The two sighed at the same time
“I’ll go look for her now Be cautious We can’t tell where that rusty woman will attack from”
“Right”
Should they stop investigating Parney Parlmanta? Mirepoc decided to look for her Book with Mattalast starting fro to bed, she thought about such things
But, while she understood about Parney to a certain extent, there were still plenty of mysteries
She could especially say that she didn’t know a single thing about Lascall Othello’s identity
He was the ave Books to Colio An existence that passed Books to people A strange legend passed from old times
Was he good? Was he evil? Was he an enemy? Was he an ally?
And just what kind of a being was he?
