Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai Chapter 75.1

They also feel confident enough to get relaxed that much. 

Even with that, the knight order was unable to do anything. 

"After I finished treating my wound with first aid... The four beasts of evil left the town. Lastly, they told me [remember, bury the woman gracefully.]" 

Without anyone noticing, the air inside the room stiffened. 

Everyone is in silent, listening to the story. 

"Until now, I can't understand what does the four beasts of evil means by saying that. They also do not look like having any intention of hunting down the other knights. In fact from how they talk to me, our appearance there can be said as unexpected for them. Furthermore, some of the town citizens were actually alive, but after some investigation, no one knows why they were being spared. In the end, we thought that they are actually not that brutal from what we first thought. Until now, no one really understood what had happened at that time..." 

Danchou-san then continues his talk. 

"Then after that, I was being helped by the town survivor and managed to survive, and returned to the capital. The other knights' members are safe... We also managed to return Chris body to the royal capital. We then buried Chris body in royal capital." 

While saying that, Danchou-san gaze feels hollow. 

"I was planned to become this academy headmaster after retired from the knight order... But then I heard some news from her relative sometimes later. I think it was around 6 months after her death. That I heard Chris' little sister has a.s.sumed the office." 

I see that's how it is huh? 

I've never thought that Makina-san has an older sister. 

Well, she's already pa.s.sed away though. 

I've also never asked about her families. 

But then again, it's not like I want to hear about it either. 

The reason why we talk about this also because of the timing. 

................................................. 

It seems like it was about time for us to know about it, that's why Makina-san did not say anything to block the conversation. 

Makina-san then sipped her tea and put down the cup gracefully. 

"With that being the case, do you think that the reason I hold Sagara Kurohiko is that I want some revenge against the four beasts of evil for killing my sister? Thinking that with the forbidden spell, we might be able to defeat them? Is that how it is?"

"I will not deny such an idea come to my mind..." 

Danchou-san immediately responded toward Makina's question. 

Revenge. 

Is that means, Makina-san wants to use me for revenge, to kill the four beasts of evil? 

However a while ago she seems to indicate it was a misunderstood... 

"Let's see... Indeed I want to kill the four beasts of evil... I was looking for a way to do that indeed..." 

Unexpectedly, 

Makina-san admitted that frankly. 

"However, you're misunderstood that I was doing it for revenge..."

"... Fumu." 

"My sister action was in accordance with her beliefs. And I'm not going to deny her action, rather, I respect her for it. Of course, at the time I found out about her death, I was feeling really depressed, but a person can't walk toward the future if they are forever bound by the past. Besides, If it was a personal matter such as revenge, I won't involve others in it. I'm not that low you know?" 

Makina-san eyes looked straight at Danchou-san eyes. 

"I will say it once again. I do think it was dangerous to leave the four beasts of evil as it is... Not just for those who live in Lunezlet, but also for those who live in Mizuberia."

"In other words, your intention is not for revenge, but for this country huh?" 

"That's right... Kurohiko." 

"Y-Yes?" 

Suddenly being mentioned, I was feeling surprised. 

"You, do you know anything about the four beasts of evil?" 

"I do know that name... But I have no chance of knowing who or what they are..." 

I do know that they are four strong people. 

"Since we're at it, let's us tell you about them. Everyone here knows about them... So can I talk about it for a bit?" 

Following Makina-san words, the others nodded their head. 

Then Makina-san took a deep breath. 

"Now then, I will tell you about the four beasts of evil."
