CH 116

Episode 116

“What are you talking about?”

I could hear Cassius shouting from behind me.

But I couldn’t bear to answer.

“Rayl? Yerine, what are you talking about?”

Astra’s words following Cassius.

“…….”

The man wearing a white cape did not say anything.

It was the same for me.

I also hoped I was wrong.

I hoped what I thought was not true.

But to the shame of my wish, the man of the white cloak did not deny it.

At the moment of silence, a yellow flash brushed against the hair and flew away.

The flash accurately brushed past the cape of the man, especially the hat.

“You’re……really…….”

I heard Eugene’s trembling voice in shock.

His flash tore the man’s hat in half.

Shining through the torn hat was green eyes and green hair that we were familiar with.

“Hey, that’s ridiculous…!”

Rachel cried out in astonishment.

Despite the reaction, the man brushed off the torn hat.

A white cloth fell on the floor.

Through his now fully exposed green eyes, we could see that he was the Rayl Diamond we know.

“No, it’s a hallucination to embarrass us. It can’t be real.”

Astra shook her head and shouted.

Her sky-lit eyes were shaking nervously around.

“Everyone, calm down. Miss Jacqueline is right. Don’t be shaken.”

Rayl, looking at us like that, had a look he had never shown before.

Green eyes with a calm glow, a tightly closed mouth, and a beast of prey hiding its claws and waiting for the right time.

“Sorry, you’re wrong, Astra.”

He opened his mouth quietly.

“You’re not hallucinating. He’s the same Rayl that you know.”

His emerald-like eyes silently headed to me.

“Yerine’s right. I’m the crown prince’s man.”

Astra murmured as if she was shocked by his words.

“Oh, that’s ridiculous……….”

Her fist-clenching hand was shaking.

She wasn’t the only one.

Everyone looked like they didn’t want to believe this situation.

“And Eugene. I don’t think you had any intention of attacking just now, so I just passed it, but I can’t help it if it flashes again.”

Then Rayl continued slowly.

“The prince will release the monster, not me. If even one of you attacks.”

“Rayl.”

I interrupted him and opened my mouth.

Honestly, I was in a hurry.

“You haven’t answered me yet.”

I asked, looking straight at his green eyes.

“I asked you how it happened.”

A perplexing light passed by Rayl’s face for a moment.

But back with an expressionless face, Rayl replied in a monotonous voice without a high-pitched voice.

“Sorry, this isn’t something you can do either, Yerine.”

His voice was neither warm nor cold.

However, his tone was soft as usual.

I looked up and looked at his green eyes again.

The light was slowly fluttering in it.

‘I don’t think it’s magical.’

He was definitely moving on his own will.

He didn’t look like a simple puppet.

“I knew I’d get caught one day, but as expected, I couldn’t fool you.”

Likewise, he had a dry and monotonous voice.

“Can I ask you how you knew?”

His voice, as he usually asked me about the basics of four-element magic, was calm.

‘I really didn’t want to have this conversation.’

“Your father is making me feel bad.”

The Duke of Diamond, who had been ghostly, showed a different appearance at Noble State Field yesterday.

I didn’t know until Iker attacked me.

He insisted and took the Duke of Ale Club, which was a trick to separate me from the other 7 Imperial Family Housekeepers.

I mean he had a completely different personality before.

An active, enthusiastic, and passionate personality who has dedicated his life to save the family.

After collecting the facts scattered like puzzle pieces, I concluded.

I don’t know how that’s possible, but the Duke of Diamond is under someone’s control.

“As expected.”

Rayl said, nodding his head still.

“And the other day, when Postade tried to kill me, there was poison on the knife. When I gave you the analysis, you said you’d never seen such a poison before.”

“Yes, I did.”

“Now that I think about it, it’s weird.”

I looked up and talked straight at his face.

“You’re the only one who can produce that complex poison, right?”

Rayl didn’t answer right away, but Erica stepped in with a surprised voice instead.

“Wait a minute, so you mean that Rayl is the one who made the poison from the knife?”

Rayl replied to her words.

“That’s too much praise.”

Cassius, who distorted his face with anger, shouted at the words.

“Hey, you son of bi*ch! How dare you”

“But there’s something wrong. I made the poison, but I didn’t hand it over to Postade.”

In response, Rayl stood still despite Cassius’s cries.

With the hideous monsters swaying like a black cape behind him.

“They didn’t tell me and asked me to make it so I handed it over. That was the best way.”

“Why would you make that?”

Astra shouted in an angry voice.

“Why are you making poison that kills people?”

Tears were pouring in her blue eyes, which turned red with anger.

“You traitor! You told me! you’ll make magic drugs to help people!”

“Astra, no.”

I tried to block her from rushing toward the Rayl.

But she couldn’t control her excitement and kept shouting.

“You said you were the happiest when you helped people! You said you were happy when you made those pills!”

“Astra, not now.”

Even Rachel stepped forward and held her, and then Astra stopped moving.

Then she uttered her last cry, wet with tears.

“Answer! Rayl Diamond!”

Her voice sounded sad as if she was tearing her heart apart.

‘How did this happen?’

What was the problem?

Everyone gathered together, have a conversation, eat, take a class, and share our worries.

We laugh and cry.

We just wanted that kind of routine to continue.

Why wasn’t even that allowed?

“Sorry.”

A concise but heavy apology came out of his mouth.

He didn’t deny his behaviour.

He didn’t even defend himself.

He’d rather do that, even though I hope he did that.

“Guys.”

He opened his mouth once again.

“…….I don’t want to lose you.”

There was no shaking in his green eyes that talked like that.

“So please, let’s do what I say.”

He took a step forward and held out his hands and said.

“Please, don’t resist and just surrender. Please, please.”

“Do you think we’re gonna believe that nonsense?”

Eugene stared coldly down at him and snapped back.

“Eugene, those monsters, and the crown prince, no one can beat them. You can’t beat him, Yerine.”

Then he clenched his fist in his hand and murmured.

“No one can win…….”

His hope seemed to fade away.

It was scary.

“You can do anything if you stay alive. But at this rate, you’re all gonna die.”

And Rayl spoke in a painful, tight voice.

“Please, if you say you’re going to surrender now, no one will die.”

No one answered his words.

“Yerine, especially you. The Crown Prince is willing to stop all attacks if you say you’re surrendering now.”

He looked at me with desperate eyes and talked.

“If you tell the Crown Prince you’ll go on your own, he’ll do everything you ask him to do. He doesn’t mean to kill you. He wants to save you.”

I know.

I know Iker wants me.

But just because I was going to him now, I wondered if I could save the rest.

The moment I fell away from them, I wouldn’t know what Iker would do out of my sight.

“……”

“Yerine, listen to me. That’s how you live.”

I couldn’t answer.

If I lose my mana by mistake, Iker will only consolidate my power.

‘But……’

I can’t protect all the hundreds of students in the Academy.

If I resist, everyone else will be attacked by a monster.

“Yerine, don’t listen to him. That’s ridiculous. There’s got to be a way.”

Cassius grabbed my arm and said.

“No, there are already hundreds of monsters like that in the Academy.”

Rayl said with a desperate face.

“If you say you’re going to resist until the end, the number of monsters will increase to thousands.”

“What? Thousands?”

Eugene asked back in an incredible voice.

No matter how weak it was, it would be difficult to deal with thousands of them.

“So, listen to me…..”

It was just then.

There was a thumping sound of something collapsing.

In a moment, the entire tower shook with anxiety, and dirt formed between the bricks that had been built.

“What?”

Everyone was very wary and looked around.

“It’s a signal.

Rayl talked, looking out the window that had been pierced.

“Yerine, we really don’t have time anymore. If you don’t get out of here soonest…”

“Everyone will lose their lives.”

It wasn’t himself that ended Rayl’s words.

The unpleasant voice froze my whole body.

“How can you…….”

For a moment, I thought I was hallucinating.

Because Iker in the Emperor’s red suit appeared in the air of nothing.

“Long time no see, huh?”

However, the mad derision at the tip of his mouth was real.

The smell of blood in the air was similar to that at Noble State Field.

That was real.

“Come on, gather around!”

I thought I should throw away the Academy.

I don’t know what I did, but if this place had already been breached by Iker, I should no longer be here.

I pulled everyone as much as I could and used teleportation magic.

The site was in the woods near the Academy.

“It’s useless.”

Just before closing my eyes, his joyful voice passed by my ears.

And when we opened our eyes, we were still in a tower of dirt.

“Huh…?”

The blood all over my body cooled cold.

I felt as if my heart was sinking to my toes.

“It’s a pity, what should I do?”

Iker’s derisive voice was heard.

“Now I’m the only one in this country who can use teleportation.”
