(EP-70.1) Casting Shadow # 6
070 – Shadows Looming Ark #6
The bloodline of the Demon King was alive.
Hearing such a shocking revelation, Elga’s hair stood upright like an angry cat.
“Angmar’s children are alive? How does that make sense? Didn’t the whole kingdom erase everything about their existence?”
Maybe it was because of her agitation, but the grip on Mirna’s collar tightened.
Mirna, who was smaller than Elga, got lifted into the air like a struggling fish on a hook.
“Let go of me!”
“Then say that it’s a lie!”
“I am not lying. It’s true. Even though the four families removed any trace of the Angmars from the kingdom, we couldn’t reach the outside world.”
“Daɱn traitors, you were hiding such a big fact!?”
Elga erupted like a volcano.
The shocking news that Angmar’s bloodline was still alive and flowing was enough to agitate her.
After all, for the safety and peace of the four families, including the Lioness’, there were no threats more dangerous than those who were originally the legitimate owners of the throne.
So, if I were to be in her position, I would probably have reacted the same.
I was already struggling to avoid the ‘execution ending,’ and now the fact that there was a survivor of the Angmar Family that could threaten Aira’s throne and the well-being of the four families got exposed. That would make the difficulty too high!
“Hey, Theo, did you also know? Am I the only one who didn’t know something that even a weird-ąss necromancer knew?”
At that moment, Elga’s sword was aimed ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ at me.
... Did I know?
Nope. I didn’t know either, ma’am...
“... I also didn’t know.”
Not until recently, anyway...
But now I knew, and would go through it myself.
Elga would’ve never thought ‘that’ person was right in front of her. If she found out, she would most definitely rip my head out of my torso right away.
“Hehehehe-.”
Then I heard Professor Balan’s low laugh in my ear. It seemed that she found the infighting funny.
“Fight, fight!”
She had probably intended for this to happen, which was why she gave us that information.
Because, even for Balan, she wouldn’t dare to underestimate Elga and Mirna. Hence, she wanted to separate the two.
Of course, there was no way for Elga and Mirna to not know that.
“Does Aira know about this? That the bloodline of the Demon King is alive.”
Elga’s voice slightly softened. Replying to her question, Mirna shook her head.
“She probably doesn’t know. I’ll explain everything. But for now, there is something that we need to take care of first.”
“... Right, let’s settle this first. Explain everything after, without exception.”
Elga and Mirna resolved things sooner than expected. Now, they pointed their attention to Professor Balan, or rather Gamigin, who clicked her tongue.
“It would have been better if you fought and destroyed each other. Well, that’s fine. If you’re really in a rush to heII, be my guest.”
