Chapter 306

TL: Zimmings

The chairman returned safely.

“Lady.”

He was holding on to something.

When I looked at the chairman, he nodded.

‘You brought it.’

“Trigon, right?”

At my words, it raised its head.

Several employees of the mansion covered their mouths.

Except for the fact that it has limbs, one eye, and a mouth, it cannot be seen as a human at all.

Instead of the melted skin, a lump-like filth sticks to it. Blood vessels are seen in his half-protruding eyeballs, and there are hideously open spots, and bizarrely sharp teeth protruding from the mouth.

A stench emanating from him stinks my nose. And with every time he exhaled, there was an eerie sound, like scraping metal.

Just in time, the fake Trigon, who has been helping me so far, got in.

“Is that true?! Having secured the real Trigon…… you.”

He found his friend who turned into a monster and couldn’t speak.

After he stayed rooted to the spot, he slowly approached the real Trigon.

Fake Trigon, or Wale, clenched his teeth.

“You look good. That’s great, really.”

“…….”

“What would you say to your father, Aragon? Would you say that you became like this because of magic?’

“…….”

“Answer me! This ugly bast-”

When Wale raised his fist.

“…… le.”

Trigon, who had not said a word until now, opened his mouth.

“Wa…le.”

“…….”

“Wale… Wale.”

Like a child who just learned to speak, no, like an old man who forgot every language and remembered only one word, Trigon repeated only one person’s name.

Wale’s hand loosened. He managed to grab only the robes tied to Trigon.

“What kind of thing is this… this is…”

Tears dripped down from Wale’s chin as he bowed his head.

“How did you become…”

No one could talk to Wale. Because we had nothing to say to comfort him.

I watched him cry sadly, and the heavy silence subsided in the mansion.

It wasn’t long before I opened my mouth.

“Trigon, the son of Aragon.”

“…….”

“No matter what the reason was, you contributed to the deaths of my people, and the temple violated my mother’s body.”

“…….”

“Nevertheless, there are many reasons why I have saved you, but the biggest reason is Wale. Because he begged me for forgiveness on your behalf.”

“…….”

“Wale Anderson devoted his life to me to apologize.”

Trigon collapsed. His robe, which was worn by him, fell down.

He lowered his head to the ground. Wale also lowered his head again.

“So, so, rry… I’m sorry… I’m sorry…”

“Apologize with your life, not just a few words. Then…”

“…….”

“-Please start with the recovery.”

Trigon and Wale looked at me with trembling eyes.

I shrugged and laughed as if I couldn’t help it.

“Take him to Veronica and Uncle Taylor. With the help of Grimoire if necessary. My maternal grandfather will help me.”

Wale fell to his knees.

“Thank you, lady. Thank you.”

“Why are you thanking me? It’s all for my sake anyway.”

“…… Huh?”

I smiled and bent over to meet Wale’s eyes.

“As soon as Trigon recovers, work with Aragon, Veronica, and Grimoire to find a way to minimize the penalty for using a curse.”

“What… Are you going to use it in war? How can ‘memory distortion’ help the war?”

“Why not? If we use it well, there’s no treasure as precious as that.”

I crossed my arms and turned to the spire of the temple outside the window.

“We will weaken the power of Neliard in earnest.”

“Weakening the power of God. Is it possible?”

“It’s possible. If you take away people’s trust.”

“……?”

“I mean it. As a child of evil God, I’ll take away people’s faith in a very vicious and simple way.”

I covered my mouth with both hands and giggled wickedly.

***

I sat around the table with my family and people who knew who I was.

Isaac, who tilted his head, looked at me.

“So what happened?”

“Huh?”

“The kidnapping of the chairman, Mina’s escape.”

“Ah, that was of course my plan.”

“Are you talking about Mina who escaped too?”

“Yes. I hired gypsies as actors to make Mina think that we are being careless. I recruited gypsies because none of our soldiers were worthy of acting.”

“… The chairman too?”

That’s how it happened.

As soon as the chairman was kidnapped from the temple, the magic tool for tracking created by Veronica was activated, and the Irie chased after the chairman.

Upon hearing that, Isaac smiled.

“The chairman was held in custody in the vatican, which is the main temple. How did they infiltrate?”

“I sent people who could definitely break through.”

‘Dad, Johann, Henry, and the Duke of Grimoire were in charge of the rescue operation for the chairman.’

Most of the holy knights were supporting Mina on the altar, and the pope was unable to fight against my grandfather.

‘On top of that, I used Emeline’s father, Stefano, to create fights among the cardinals in advance.’

No matter how powerful the cardinals are, they will be destroyed if not united.

There is no way those people can overcome my father, Johann, Henry, and the Duke of Grimoire.

Upon hearing my explanation, Isaac opened his mouth.

“Why didn’t you tell me that?”

“No, I needed someone to fool them… they would be deceived if you fought desperately.”

“This……!”

Isaac stared fiercely at me, so I sneakily hid behind my dad.

Henry smiled and said.

“So what are you going to do now? Since we and the temple had an all-out war, the imperial palace will make their move.”

“I’ll take responsibility.”

“Responsibility?”

“Tomorrow, as the person in charge of making this battle, I plan to go directly to the Imperial Palace. Dad, let the emperor do public interrogation.”

The faces of my family hardened in an instant.

“You can’t do that. If you do something wrong, you’ll be tied to the imperial palace for life, or in the worst case, you’ll be executed.”

“Yes, Leblaine. In an open interrogation, the crime is determined by a vote of three cardinals, three noble families, and three imperial families. As long as the cardinal enters the vote, we are at a disadvantage.”

“Do you think so?”

“Of course!”

“But why would you do it? What have you been up to?”

“Just so that it can be broadcasted all over the empire through the magic tool.”

Isaac got up.

I nodded my head.

“I’m going to reveal that I’m the biological daughter of my dad and mom.”

I made up my mind. I will let everyone in the world know that Dubblede’s biological daughter has returned.

After that, we ran around busily to make my interrogation an open interrogation.

It was Henry who showed excellent talent for this job.

“I know that the lord is the centre of the young lords.”

“You intimidate the nobles. But I won’t be intimidated by you.”

“Your son has recently been into a fun game.”

“…… What?”

“He’s so into horse racing. But I don’t think he has any talent. 300,000 francs in four days……. Your land won’t be sold easily due to a severe drought, where did your son get that much money?”

“…….”

“Dubblede’s predecessors and the weak points of the nobles that they had steadily gathered through the times, and even bribes were used to provoke the nobles.

In this way, Henry even asked the center of the new nobles to come to my open interrogation.

And Johann is…

“Please, Lady Sevigne.”

“Oh my god, Your Excellency! Don’t bow down to me. We, the lonely silver guards, are always ready to work for you from the beginning.”

He used his followers.

While Isaac…

“Haha, this is disappointing. I thought Henry Doubled would come, but they sent the hot-tempered youngest lord instead.”

“I can’t use my brain as much as my brother, but instead I use my body.”

“Pardon?”

“My specialty is beating people to death. Where should I start?”

……Well, that’s about it.

Eventually, the nobles raised both hands and feet to support me.

A few days later, I visited the imperial palace myself, as the nobles demand an open interrogation.

The imperial family looked at me with an astonished face, and I shouted refreshingly.

“I’m the devil that caused the temple and Dubblede to fight, so take me, Your Majesty!”

The emperor grabbed the back of his neck.

***

Mina was curled up in the blanket.

Although the pope healed her body through sacrifices, the wounds in her heart could not be healed.

‘He went to Leblaine, not me.’

She couldn’t forget the gaze of Neliard, who was looking at Leblaine in the space of God.

‘Why?’

She’s his child.

People called her a precious soul.

So shouldn’t she be special?

‘If I wasn’t the real child of fate… No!’

Mina covered her mouth.

It can’t be…

But she keeps getting anxious. The three brothers, Adrian, and Neliard misunderstood her.

She pulled the quilt down.

“Let’s meet them.”

Let’s meet them and let them know that Leblaine used her memory to take them away.

When she left bed…

“Child!”

A priest came to visit Mina in a hurry.
