Chapter 392 - Episode Thirty-Eight - The King of Destruction (1)
For a period of time, the port city of Radam was in turmoil.
It was no surprise. A powerful sphere appeared in the sky and suddenly unleashed indiscriminate petrification magic.
I pretended to be ignorant and immediately left the scene, and in the end, the identity of Sim was not known.
Although it was some kind of mysterious demon attack that caused a great deal of commotion, the ship’s departure was delayed by only two hours because there was almost no harm done and it was a matter of great importance to the merchants’ profits.
“…… I’m sorry, even though you came for me, Shibi, and Lil-chan. I’d better get going.”
Lil, who is a Marren from a family of fortune tellers, was glaring at me with a scowl.
I don’t think we’ve ever met before, but she didn’t seem too happy about it.
Shibi also let out a deep sigh.
“I understand what’s going on …… but what will I say to Gizel-chan when she wakes up ……”
“I don’t have a choice, you know? As I said before, I’m currently being eyed by Peter, who controls this country, Kudor, the guardian god, and Count Julem, who is meddling in politics here and there. I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to leave this country until the heat dies down. “
“…… I don’t know about the people themselves, but I do know that Abel-san has been hurling fireballs in all directions as usual. Ahhhh …… in the village, it would have been just the Karlco family, but since you went out, you keep picking fights in a strange place ……”
Shibi looks at me with disgusted eyes.
It’s not that I’ve done anything wrong, you know?
It’s just a result of them coming from the other side and pushing us into a corner.
“Just in case …… I’ll leave you with three guard Ortems, so please try to stay as far away from me. Count Julem’s group may come again.”
I respond by lightly tossing the Sim stone into the air and playing with it.
I picked up the stone and put it in my pocket.
To be honest, I could have just crushed it and thrown it away, but I’ll keep it just in case I can use it for something else.
“…… Once again, even though it’s for the second time, thank you, Elia-san.”
I said goodbye to Elia for the second time.
I wanted to do the same for Shame, but in the …… midst of the mysterious demon fiasco, I realized that she had disappeared before I knew it.
I tried to find her, but I had no clue whatsoever. I thought she would show up while I was having a discussion with Gizel first, but she never showed up until the end.
She was a strange person too.
I wondered if she had some urgent business to attend to.
I hope she wasn’t involved in something strange ……
I heard a voice from inside the boat telling me that it was time to leave.
I stretched a bit and looked towards the city.
“…… Abel-san, Big Sister Gizel is resting at the inn, so she can’t come. I’ve already said hello, so I’m going back.”
Lil says with narrowed eyes.
“Oh, yeah ……”
…… In the two hours before the ship sails, I told Gizel face to face what I thought and where I was at.
I was prepared for the possibility that she would insist that I follow her …… Gizel seemed to think that Sim had used her to almost kill me, and she backed down easily, as if that was still on her mind.
But the fact that I clearly denied Gizel’s wish and the heartbreak caused by Sim’s betrayal seemed to have exhausted her mentally, and she said she was going to rest in her bed at the inn right away and didn’t even come out to see me off.
“Big Sister Gizel said it very clear that she would not go to see you off because it is too painful.”
Lil’s voice was cold.
“I, I see …… I-, I’m sorry.”
“No, It’s not like apologizing to me will do anything is what I feel, though.”
“Tha-, that’s right ……”
This girl is scary ……
No, I know it’s mostly my fault, but ……
Both Mea and Elia look terribly uncomfortable.
When I was about to board the ship, I saw Gizel from a distance, half-hiding behind a wall, watching me.
“G-Gizel!”
I ran to Gizel without thinking.
I saw Lil glaring at me with a horrible look on her face.
“Bro-, brother ……”
Gizel looked at me with tears in her eyes.
I gently placed my hand on Gizel’s head.
“…… I’m sorry, Gizel. I’m sure I’ll be back before too long.”
“………… Yes, brother. I’ll be waiting for you forever.”
There was a little silence.
“Um …… are you sure you don’t want her to follow you?”
It’s not that I want to take her with me, but I knew that Gizel’s personality would insist on it.
“…… You might regret that later. But for now, I can’t seem to separate the two.”
Gizel looked behind me.
From some distance away, I could see Mea looking at me anxiously.
“Y-, You’re right. I’m sorry ……”
I bowed my head.
As I was about to board the ship, Shibi stuck out his thumb and pointed his arm at me.
“It’s okay, Abel-san! I’ll make Gizel-chan happy!”
“Shibi ……”
I thought about it for a moment, and then gently made a cross with my arm.
“…… Sorry, I still don’t want Shibi to be my brother-in-law.”
“Why! It wasn’t to be a flow you would say no! So why!”
“…… I also don’t like the idea of Shibi-san getting together with Big Sister Gizel.”
“L-Lil-chan!?”
-This is how I left the port city of Radam.
The only thing left to do is to board the ship and head for the Galshard Kingdom.
There, Peter can’t reach me, and Kudor can’t make a move.
The only problem is Count Julem.
Sim had spilled the beans that Gillemeim’s research is being done in the Galshard Kingdom.
I was not listening too closely because I was too busy with that, and now that I think about it, I think it was a shame, but …… Anyway, there is no doubt that they have roots in the Galshard Kingdom.
However, that much was expected beforehand.
I don’t know if the Great Spirit Sim, who seems to be Count Julem’s companion, will see it as a loss to get involved with me now that I’ve defeated him and back off, or if he’ll mark me even more and attack me harder.
As I walked on deck alongside Mea to take a look at the ocean, I was called out from the side.
“Mea-chan, Abel-chan.”
I looked over to see Shame leaning her back against the deck railing.
“Hey.”
“What, so its Shame.”
I smiled and let it go, then remembered the obvious: I was supposed to leave her in Radam.
“What is Shame doing here!?”
“Shame-san, where have you been when I thought I couldn’t find you!?”
Both Mea and I were indeed surprised.
I thought she had suddenly disappeared, but I had no idea that he had gotten on the boat first.
“Fufu~n, I wanted to surprise you. I secretly told them about it and they agreed to let me in. I’ve always wanted to go out of the country, and I’m worried about what Abel-chan might do out there.”
Shame looks at me with a meaningful smile on her face.
I-It’s not like I plan to do anything strange.
“But, are you sure about it? Shame-san, you said that you couldn’t use magic that well, and they’re out of escort role so it must have cost a lot of money. “
“It’s okay, I had a lot of money. And I’m just going to do what I want to do.”
Shame smiles cheekily.
