87 – Claire Le Silvest

Awkward silence flows underground.

Jerbug. That buck

And then, breaking the silence, a woman’s footsteps echoed through the basement.

Surereung-!

Drawing her sword, Allyn pointed her blade at the warlock’s throat, still unconscious.

“Where is my lord?”

“… ….”

They are criminals who have invaded the imperial family.

They are black magicians who use black magic that is forbidden to be used in the empire.

But before Helena’s order had yet been given, he aimed his sword at the warlock as if he would cut her throat at any moment.

No. The sword had already torn the robe, and hot blood was flowing from the warlock’s neck.

“I won’t ask any more. Where did they disappear to?”

Alin’s cold voice made the man’s body tremble slightly.

Her cold eyes and low voice really seemed like killing herself.

But the man’s trembling gradually subsided, and he looked up at Aline, raising the corners of her mouth.

“You’d better kill me. Anyway, I’ve gathered almost all the riches to unlock the seal! It’s a pity that I couldn’t see the ancient being manifested in the world in person. Ahahahahaha!!!”

The man laughed maniacally as he said that.

And.

“Keah-!”

The man killed himself by biting off his tongue before Allyn’s sword pierced his throat.

“… ….”

The faces of everyone who was watching that scene began to harden in an instant.

Aline, who was seriously about to cut her throat, also distorted her face when she saw the man who had taken her own life.

And as if that was the beginning, those who hadn’t lost their minds followed the man and tried to commit suicide by biting their tongues.

“Put a gag in their mouths so they don’t kill themselves!”

“Yes!”

At Helena’s command, they moved quickly to gag them.

“Damn it! Stay still!”

But how easy is it to put a gag in the mouth of those who are already at risk of losing their lives?

The guards broke into a cold sweat while dealing with the warlocks who were madly resisting.

I felt it was harder to gag them than to subdue them at first.

“Sleep.”

However, the dark mages, who had been struggling until just a moment ago, began to fall asleep as if they were dead at the soft and cold voices coming from behind them.

Puffed up.

As soon as no one could stand the drowsiness and collapsed, the guards looked blankly at the fallen and Fenia.

Currently, there are not only guards but also many princesses and others in the basement.

If magic was misused in such a place, not only the warlocks, but also the same party could make a mistake using magic.

But Fenia used magic as if she didn’t care about that, and she succeeded in using magic by selecting only warlocks at once.

“What are you doing? Quickly, without putting a gag on your mouth.”

The guards immediately responded to the cold voice that did not sound like that of a child.

“Yes!”

I moved my body quickly and put a gag on the mouths of the sleeping warlocks.

Confirming her appearance, Fenia nodded her head.

She then turned her head to look at Aline, who had her head down.

The knife in her hand trembled as if she thought Rail had been kidnapped by her goons because of her.

Fenia slowly opened her mouth to comfort her Aline, who thought everything was her own fault.

But before she could open her mouth, she first heard a familiar voice behind her.

“The Marquis was not kidnapped by them.”

When I turned my head to the man’s voice that broke the silence, there was the leader of the Violand family’s bodyguard. Rayman stood there without much emotion.

“What do you mean?”

“You may not have seen it well because you were all focused on the battle, but I saw it with my own two eyes. When they used the parchment to run away, the Marquis jumped at them at high speed.”

“Does that mean that Rail wasn’t kidnapped, but that some of them followed them?”

“From what I feel, yes.”

“Hmm.”

Fenia let out a small moan at Rayman’s words.

She has also dealt with many wizards and swordsmen many times. She and she had faced warlocks a few times as well, but this was the first time she had ever dealt with so many warlocks.

Moreover, it is not only she who is fighting her, but also her guards and princesses…

If you use magic incorrectly, you could use magic on your allies.

That’s why she was more focused than usual and didn’t see the rail running directly at them.

“But why did Rail follow them alone… ….”

I know they won’t kill a noble who’ll get in trouble if they mess with them, but they won’t hesitate to kill even a noble if their plans are thwarted.

“… Besides, I don’t even know where their hideout is.”

If I had at least known where their hideout was, I wouldn’t worry too much.

For a moment, she recalled the hideout used by warlocks before.

‘But that place was already destroyed by then.’

While shaking my head and thinking about how to find their hideout, Rayman opened his mouth once again.

“It shouldn’t be that difficult to find where the Marquis is.”

“What?”

Rayman tried to explain right away at Fenia’s question, but she thought it would be better to show it directly rather than explain, so she pulled out a small item that glowed blue in her arms.

“Magic ore? No. It’s a magic ore, but something is different…….”

Fenia stared at the magic ore she received from Rayman.

And after a while she turned her head to look at Rayman with her face realised.

Rayman nodded her head, realizing that Fenia had noticed as well.

“… I see If you have this, it won’t be difficult to find the rails.”

“What is that?”

“It is a magic ore that contains the magical power of the rail. Usually, it is an artifact made so that children can find it even if they get lost, but with a magic ore of this size, it won’t take long to find the rail.”

Aline’s eyes widened when she said she could find her rails.

Looking into Allin’s eyes, Fenia quickly channeled her magic power towards her magic ore before the others became more worried.

Then, the hemp ore, which had been shining by itself, began to shine even brighter, and Fenia closed her eyes as if concentrating.

If she was not far away, she would have already found the magic of the rail near her, but perhaps because she was farther away than she thought, Fenia did not open her mouth for a long time.

And after a while, Fenia’s eyes opened as if her magic had ended.

“How are you?”

“First of all, I found a place where I can feel the magical power of rails. I felt the magic of the rail in the big forest in the north.”

“You can find them in that vast forest in the north… ….”

One of the guards involuntarily opened his mouth and then immediately closed his mouth with his hand.

But no one scolded the guard for what he said.

The forest in the north was not small enough to be searched through in one day, and the climate in the north was not so good that there were snowstorms.

Fenia looked at Allin with a slightly worried face.

She notices that the rails are in the north, and she immediately, without listening to her, sets her feet to the north to find the rails by herself.

However, contrary to her expectations, Aline was immersed in her thoughts, as if contemplating something, with a calm expression on her face.

And just before that, she answered what Fenia was wondering about.

“There is no way the lord would follow them alone without thinking.”

“So. Rail says she thinks she knows why she followed?”

At Fenia’s question, Aline nodded her head.

“It seems that the master intends to exterminate them at this opportunity.”

“Please explain in more detail.”

“Thanks to the magic ore left by the master, I found out where their hideout was. So, if you gather several troops to save the master and then raid the hideout, it means that you can not only save the master, but also completely eliminate them.”

“Hmm.”

At Allyn’s words, Fenia tried to ask how she would gather her forces.

However, there were already more than one or two people related to the rails that she instantly came up with.

And there are also places in the North that can support rail right now.

Fenia turned her head to look at her Helena and opened her mouth.

“Helena. Quickly send the maid a letter to the people I am talking about.”

It would be quicker for Fenia to send a message to her by her name as the princess, rather than send it elsewhere.

However, despite Fenia’s words, Helena did not answer Fenia’s words with a hard face.

Then she slowly opened her mouth with her bewildered face.

“…… Could it be that Claire also disappeared?”

When the rails disappeared, everyone looked for him and didn’t notice.

Only then did Helena confirm that Claire, who had been by her side until a moment ago, was gone and hurriedly shouted at her guards.

“It’s an order! Find Claire right now!”
