"Missing?"
Charlize asked.
Kahu continued to speak with difficulty.
"First Charlize Ronan went missing, and I went looking for you. For many years, and years…"
It was a fact that Charlize knew well.
However, Dietrich I did not talk about Kahu at some point.
She thinks he might have done it to better deal with Kiera. Because Kiera didn't listen to him when she heard about Kahu. But was he really missing?
"Well… I can't remember clearly, but strangely, it seems that I was almost successful in tracking you. Eventually, I arrived at their home…"
Kahu's expression turned pale.
The young duke is not a person who enjoys deviations, so he does not like alcohol. However, the experience of being so dizzy and upset in the stomach resembles the feeling of being drunk without knowing the amount of alcohol.
He felt nauseous.
Kahu reached out his hand and grabbed the table.
With a rattle.
The porcelain cup placed on the plate was shaken by the recoil of the table.
The tea is spilling over.
'Remember?'
A moment of stability. Charlize and Dylan's eyes were keenly fixed.
Knowing that it was rude in front of the emperor and the grandmaster, his confused mind was not controlled.
He's sweating. He's confused. He tries to distance himself from his emotions, but he can't do it as he wants. At that moment, a wall that had been blocked by something collapsed and some scenes came in front of him as if it were overflowing.
He only saw the future in his dreams, but this is…
Whose voice is that?
'What are all these?'
It felt like his head was going to break. In the vividly unfolding scene, it was opaque as if there was smoke, but it looked blurry.
The senses were separated from reality.
The men in the magic tower's unique cloaks. He couldn't see their faces, but the atmosphere was strange.
Black and dirty things on the floor. The carcass of a dead goat is black. The red candles. Among them, those who continue the discussion without emotion and insensitivity.
It was different from the usual magic tower. It was a gut feeling. More stealthy and more dangerous.
Kahu moved his body.
The cool eyes of the wizards turned to Kahu. They're crazy. Predators, beasts, and vices.
All the words that crossed his mind were unrealistic and dizzying.
Kahu in reality did not know what was going on. Just now, he was trapped in the memory that unfolded before his eyes.
'Remember?'
He asks himself again. Yes, it was a memory.
It wasn't the future of possibilities that might or might not happen, but a past that had already happened once. It was all the incident that Kahu had experienced.
The wizards talked about Kahu's fate. His mouth was gagged, so Kahu couldn't say anything.
"Damn, I can't believe that Charlize Ronan could be that strong. Is human reason capable of suppressing the awakening of evil gods?>
Charlize Ronan? Kiera?
Their conversation and the truth Kahu discovered while tracking overlapped each other to form a single fact. He was shocked.
Their cloaks, refined like strong priests' uniforms, showed the sincerity of religion at first glance.
Kahu denied it. He denied and denied.
Because it doesn't make sense. It can't be. Because people can't do that to people.
A man with a strange impression laughed as he looked at Kahu, who was struggling with a seizure.
The man seemed the most authoritative among the wizards. Although he looked the youngest and youngest on the outside, the wizard who reached the stage often had a different age from his actual age.
Maybe that man. He was alone among all the black things, with silver hair and red eyes. The most dangerous and high-
"Kahu!"
Charlize's voice was heard.
His memory is cut off. His head felt like it was going to explode. What is in front of him?
The fiancee he had been looking for all his life and death. While he had never really heard her voice, he didn't have to look so desperately for a request from Ronan.
Why was he so obsessed with her? While digging up and digging into her disappearance, he was shocked by the truth he found out about her…
"…Charlize."
"I'll take care of it, Master."
Dylan moved at the sound of Kahu's choked voice.
It was the emperor who tore off the plants in the room and shoved them roughly into Kahu's lips.
It is an herbal plant that has a stabilizing effect just by smelling it, and has an effect on hyperventilation.
Kahu was forced to engage his jaws and chew and swallow the plant.
Kahu dared to say Charlize's name, but Dylan endured it for now because he was a patient with hallucinations.
Kahu, who had been struggling to the point of nearly fainting due to hyperventilation, began to be forcibly stabilized. Kahu's hand, which was about to reach Charlize, was naturally covered by Dylan in the middle.
Charlize had an indifferent face. The only thing she had witnessed was Kahu, who had collapsed into confusion while confessing that he was missing.
So, of course, it's a dry reaction.
Listening to the whispers of fairies.
Somehow they seemed to be begging, and Charlize frowned leisurely.
'Why are the fairies so anxious?'
Kahu's eyes seemed to have loosened slightly.
The fairy hadn't reached out yet, but the young duke was convulsing slightly as if he were in shock of witnessing something.
Since Dylan takes over, Charlize doesn't even have to worry about Kahu. Considering the medical knowledge he had accumulated while taking care of the 7th concubine, he would already be the greatest on the continent.
'There was something.'
Deeper than she thought, Kahu was connected to this case.
Dylan was indeed a genius. After the emperor's medical prompt action, Kahu soon regained stability.
Dylan pulled his hand away from Kahu.
The green eyes returned. Although still a pale face. The young duke looked clearly fine.
She just doesn't think Kahu can handle it to question him right away.
Knock knock.
It's the VIP room of the Imperial Palace.
Before the order, she told no one to interrupt, but the door was knocked.
On the contrary, however, it meant that there was an urgent matter to take precedence over the order.
Charlize got up leaving Dylan and Kahu behind.
When she opened the door, it was Mary, the maid, who was waiting with her head bowed.
"…What's the matter?"
"I'm sorry, grandmaster. But the grandmaster's subordinates said they had something urgent to report."
"Who are the subordinates?"
"The Alperier, Rapine, Shadow, and the guild all gathered in front of the Imperial Palace. Especially, the person who has the strongest voice and insists that you should meet him immediately is Payne of Alperier."
Charlize looked back.
Her disciple with a calm attitude and Kahu who is almost half-dead. The fairies still wandered around Kahu.
"Your Majesty, please stay here."
"… Yes."
Dylan replied.
"I would appreciate it if you could testify about the disappearance as soon as the young duke recovers."
The orders belonged to Charlize.
An indifferent glance was drawn away.
The door is closed. The sound of Charlize and Mary moving away could be heard in the ears of the master, Dylan.
Dylan removed the mask of the gentle sheep, which he had only worn in front of Charlize. The tyrant returned to his original sharp face and stared at Kahu.
He's attracted to cigarettes.
It wasn't because he was addicted to a specific ingredient, but because he wanted to bring some discomfort by scattering smoke on his face.
'Useless thoughts.'
Dylan looked away from Kahu.
If it weren't for Charlize, Kahu wasn't even worth caring about. No, he keeps getting caught. Physiologically, it was continually different.
They can never coexist in the same world like water and oil.
'The enemy of fate?'
It is different from the feeling of a love rival.
In fact, Dylan now had a greater desire to own Charlize than to check Kahu.
He just looked into Charlize's eyes.
Charlize was dry even when she saw Kahu, who was suffering from fainting. If Dylan had been in that situation, she would have taken Dylan away in a panic.
Dylan and Kahu were completely different priorities for Charlize to the point that they could no longer be put on the same line of comparison.
"Your Majesty… Haven't you seen it?"
It was time to suppress his jealousy with that thought.
The question that Kahu asked was filled with passion. It belongs to those who are weighed down with fear.
Dylan looked at Kahu.
It wasn't a fear towards the Emperor. Kahu was clearly looking ahead, but he was not looking ahead.
"What do you mean?"
Kahu shuddered at the tiresome question.
As the First Knight Commander of the Imperial Family, he was always an example for knights.
But also not. Now he is not the knight commander.
So, who is he?
"Wizards… Why don't you remember anything?"
Kahu stared at Dylan.
The whole world of Kahu was in chaos.
***
Payne was worried about Charlize.
The first thing he was worried about was how she would react to this.
The clue that Payne knew was that the essence of the logic that Charlize had built up was an overturned truth.
'The possibility of false information.'
No matter how much he shook his head, there was no possibility of that.
This was found right near the base of the secret magic tower. It was a clue that you wouldn't recognize unless you knew how to handle Mana in great detail.
The second thing he's worried about is…
"Leader."
"Why did you call me in a hurry?"
"Can we be alone?"
Charlize looked around at her subordinates with serious faces.
Each and every one of them had great power. The guild members including Lucy, Shadow including V and Hugo, Rapine clan including Chase, and the 7 corps commanders' Alperier.
Everyone gathered together.
'You have found the base of the secret magic tower.'
Charlize realized.
The end of revenge is not far away. She nodded her head.
"Just say it, here."
Charlize struck a wall of mana to separate them from the world around her. The conversation between Payne and Charlize could not be heard by anyone else.
Payne looked at Charlize and gave her the clue. This was the first time Charlize saw him with such a serious face.
"Leader, listen carefully."
The ancient words engraved in gold gleamed in the sunlight on the clues that Payne gave.
"The evil god who will kill the real piece of Ehyrit… The evil god who will kill Emperor Dylan is not the leader… It's Kahu."
A slight crack was drawn on Charlize's calm expression.
Payne's voice was shaking heavily.
"Kahu, he's the evil god."
