Chapter 38 (2/2)
I asked after thinking for a bit
“I’, but… did Gazaine also become a Leader around that time?”
Miguel answered my question in a matter-of-fact tone
“That’s right?
Gazaine-sao, nize his ability and became one of the leaders in no time
The top brass of that time was very turbulent and after a dispute about the leadershi+p, Gazaine-sama took the position of the Leader”
“Who was the Leader before Gazaine?”
“…Fellow believer Orochi
Even if you are close with him, I don’t think you should talk about the Leader without any honorifics”
Donna said
“…got it
So, as the Leader-sama before Gazaine-sama?”
“Hmmm……hoas it?”
Miguel and Donna is tilting their head
There,
“――until then there was a top brass, but there was no position called a Leader”
Eremia told us
“The top brasswith each other”
“What happened to that top brass?”
“Everyone was killed”
“…huh!?”
I unintentionally let out a sound of bewilderment
Eremia said it like it was natural
“It’s not soht?
That’s how it is when you coanization
The arasu〉”
“Isn’t it Gazaine who is saying that?”
“Mnn…that’s, right I guess
He started saying that after he became the current Leader…I think”
Donna’s words are aly uncertain
“Oi oi……”
In other words, Gazaine took over the religious organization
“Before this, it was strictly forbidden to kill soanization, if you broke this law you were severely tortured and killed in the end
…oh? That’s very different from now, huh?”
Eremia tilts her head
“――Melby“
I call out to the hidden Melby with [Telepathic Communication]
“Nn, I knohat you want to say
Indeed, there are traces of hypnotic ic on these children“
“Sae?“
“The same
It was i period of time, but it was done by the same practitioner“
Melby declared as such
“That reht when the mansion was attacked in Fauno City, Melby orried about so
Was that perhaps――”
“Ah, the thing from that time?
That was, the servant…Marcella-san, was it
I had a strange feeling about her
If I think about it now, she was under the saet suspicious
If I was more reliable that time…“
Melby said feeling mortified
As I thought
That arasu〉 knew that we ree
Therefore they didn’t brazenly use ic on Marcella-san like with the woodcutter, but they used a coic and instructed her to do so
It seearasu〉 rass, so Marcella-san’s role was probably only providing infor the locks from inside
The fact that Melby’s existence was not exposed arasu〉 went back to gather infore and only found out that so us removed the spell
They probably thought that Julia-kaasan, who is an excellent e, was the one who removed it
We asked that they don’t tell anyone froe about Fairies, and it looks like the people of Riverette Village faithfully kept their promise
The fact that Melby wasn’t discovered was the silver lining
Because if Melby wasn’t here, then everyday life would’ve become many times more difficult here
“――Thanks, Melby“
“Wh-, what are saying suddenly
I didn’t notice the spell that was put on Marcella-san you know?“
“That can’t be helped
They were one step ahead of us
Me too, I was a bit conceited fro various skills
But, because Melby is atsaved
I’ about [Telepathic Communication] or the dimensional stash, if Melby wasn’t here with me now I honestly don’t think I would’ve been able to keep myself sane“
“I, I see…
You are welco to say here?“
While I was speaking with Melby,believers tidied up the room and started to slip into their beds
“――Fellow believer Orochi, turn off the light please”
Since Miguel askedin the room with ∃ (Erase)
“Couldn’t you just cancel the ∩ (Light) without especially using ∃ (Erase)?”
Eremia asked me
“Everything depends on practice
Particularly eraseyou have to be able to use in an instant or it’s less”
“Is that steady practice the secret of Fellow believer Orochi’s strength~?”
Donna said while putting the smaller children to sleep
“I still have a long way to go
I couldn’t even get a hit on Gazaine yet”
“There is frickin’ nobody in this nest that can get a hit on the Leader!”
The retort frouel served as the end to the conversation, then after a short while, the sleeper’s breathing from the children could be heard
After confir with [Detect Presence] that everyone fell asleep, I slowly got up from the bed
――Well then, the night is just beginning
