Chapter 380 - Episode Twenty-Six - Attack of the Doom Tribe (6)

I put my hands on my head and gather my thoughts.

My mind couldn’t keep up with what Dafne had told me.

No, it was as if I was refusing to understand.

I don’t want to believe that James, the man who saved me, was Count Julem.

And if that’s the case, then I was in Count Julem’s hands at that point.

If Count Joulem knew of my existence and declared war on Peter, then adding me to his forces would not be able to defeat his intentions.

“…… What makes you think that the peddler James is Count Julem?”

I ask Dafne.

“He never said his name directly. But …… when the red stone was born five hundred years ago, the green-haired man had been in contact with the Doom tribe at that time, Melzel-sama had read from the records in the bas.e.m.e.nt of the chieftain’s house. As he went outside to search for James alongside Mea, he realized that he was not named in any of the merchant guilds and that he had no real leads.”

I felt a chill run down my spine.

James had a shipment, and they must have been headed to Lomarn with some kind of intention.

If they had gone straight to Lomarn, it would have been too bizarre to pick up any traces.

“In addition to following Mea-sama, we were also searching outside for anything we could learn about five hundred years ago and the mythical era. In the process, we noticed that the lore about Count Julem mysteriously corresponded to the Green haired-man in the records of the Doom tribe. And it turned out that the mysterious person who had been interfering with the Doom tribe every time the Moon Festival Dinmei occurred was the same person as the mysterious Count Julem who was causing a stir in the world.”

It was a story I wanted to laugh off, but it was too aligned with the information I knew.

But I couldn’t believe it. I was still not convinced that James was really Count Julem, even after being told this.

“I’m sure he’ll use every trick in the book to lead you away and take Mea-sama with him. Please don’t tell anyone where you’re going and get out of here! You may be a brilliant sorcerer, but once Count Julem has his eye on you, there’s nothing a human can do about it! As well as his schemes, Nelea-sama was taken advantaged of and turned into stone in the surrounding hundreds of square meters ……”

Dafne appealed to me desperately.

The more you know, the more creepy Count Julem becomes.

The scale is too large for one person.

Even from my point of view, he is a terrifying sorcerer.

“Melzef-sama is a man beyond humanity …… I do not know what would happen if he were to come into conflict with you. And if Melzef-sama were to get serious, he could wipe out an entire village …… You should not meet with Count Julem, nor should you meet with Melzef-sama.”

…… Is Mea’s father that dangerous?

“…… Let me think about it for a moment.”

…… This may be in the worst pattern that can be envisioned.

It became necessary to take on Count Julem at the same time as making enemies of Peter and Kudor.

On top of that, there was the matter of her pursuer, Melzef.

“That’s right, let’s just do it ……”

We might as well get ready to prepare the weapon that can dig a black pit in s.p.a.ce and drop stars using the magic wave towers in earnest.

At present, we are talking about the possibility of a star disappearing if any one theory is wrong, but there is a way to make this deliberately and surely so that we can hit a star into a black hole.

Even Count Julem would not want the entire star to turn to dust.

If I use it as a light emitter for Kudor and Count Julem, they won’t be able to touch me.

“You’re a scary face, so are you thinking of doing something crazy ……?”

“…………”

I strained my face, straightened my back, and adjusted my expression.

Dafne frowns uneasily.

“Um, I know you’re worried, but you may not have much time …… If it’s too late, Mea-sama will surely be turned into a tool for Count Julem as a red stone.”

“…… about the red stone …… Please tell Peter, that nasty queer about it. I’d like to see Peter’s att.i.tude too …… also, you don’t need to hide it from him, there are people who know about Red Stone. There’s a chance they’ll leak it from there. “

“However, that may limit your actions as well ……”

I shake my head.

“…… I’m sure that Mea will be saddened if Dafne-san is tortured. I don’t like it either. So please make sure you tell Peter. If Peter is going to torture Dafne-san, I will interrupt him, even if I have to be a little reckless. If I do that, Peter will probably know that there was an important discussion between me and Dafne-san. Therefore, please tell Peter the information before I do so.”

“…… I’m very sorry, Marren …… Ohhhh, I had no idea that Mea-sama had made such wonderful friends out here …… I will not interfere any further with what you will do. But can I trust that you will make Mea-sama happy?”

“Leave it to me, Dafne-san. I’ll definitely protect Mea and make her happy.”

I promised Dafne.

Dafne’s eyes were red and he looked like she was about to cry, but then he remembered that he was going to meet Peter later and he held back her tears.
