The sun was already starting to set.

It would be difficult to meet Mrs. Minagros again at nighttime by visiting her through the front door.

If that was the case, I could probably wait until tomorrow, but I wanted to do it today if possible.

f I did it tomorrow, I would have to stay in this town, and I don’t have money for accommodation.

“Master, I’m sure Lady Minagros is in that room.”

“Was there anyone else in the room?”

“There was only one person in the room, Mrs. Minagros.”

Demons cannot be seen by ordinary people when they are in the spirit state.

That’s why they come in handy in situations like this.

He sent Orobas in spirit to scout the room.

“Okay, let’s go, then.”

What I’m going to do now is to break into a house.

Luckily, Mrs. Minagros’ room is on the first floor, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to break in.

The gate is lined with high walls, and I’ll use Fokalor’s wings to fly in and carry me in.

The windows were locked, but Orobas entered first in spirit form, materialized inside, and then opened the windows from the inside.

I was worried that the sudden appearance of Orobas in the room would startle her, but luckily she was asleep and didn’t notice him.

Safely, from inside, Orobas opened the window so we could enter the room.

Fokalor and Oliax followed him.

Now, what should we do from here? Just as I was thinking that…

Oliax took a step forward.

Don’t tell me you’re planning to kill Mrs. Minagros! With that thought in mind, I looked over to Orobas and Fokalor.

I had asked them in advance to stop Oliax if he tried to kill her.

That’s why Orobas was the first one to try to jump on Oliax.

He stopped him just in time.

There was something wrong with him.

“It’s been a long time, Mrs. Minagros.”

Oliax bowed his head to Mrs. Minagros.

This action seemed to be respectful to the other party and did not seem to be the attitude of someone who wants to kill the opposite.

“Oh, that’s Oliax, isn’t it?”

Suddenly, Mrs. Minagros opened her eyes.

“Yes, I’ve come to fulfill that promise.”

“I see……”

Mrs. Minagros nodded with deep emotion.

“Why didn’t you come sooner? I’ve been waiting sixty years for this.”

“I’m sorry. It was my fault.”

“Oh, well. This is why you came to fulfill your promise. Now, let’s get to it,” said Minagros, “I want you to kill me with your own hands.”

And.

What? For a moment, I didn’t understand the meaning of the words she said.

It seemed I wasn’t the only one, because also both Fokalor and Orobas had stunned expressions on their faces.

“Haha, right away.”

However, Oliax is trying to listen to Minagros’ request in a natural way.

“Thank you.”

Minagros accepted it with gratitude.

Shouldn’t I stop him?

That thought crossed my mind for a moment, but I couldn’t act on it.

What is right and what is not right?

I don’t even know what the truth is.

In the end, I couldn’t do anything, so I just stood there.

In the meantime, Oliax seemed to be just leaning on Mrs. Minagros, and did not seem to be doing anything.

Then a few moments of silence passed through the room.

Then, at a moment’s notice, Oliax came over to me and bowed politely.

“Dear Norman, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for granting my selfish wish.”

“Is Mrs. Minagros……?”

“Ha, she’s already dead.”

I didn’t know with what emotion I should accept those words.

I didn’t know if Mrs. Minagros was really dead or not.

However, if Mrs. Minagros had died as Oliax said, it seemed to have been a very quiet death.

No one but Oliax knew when she died.

Perhaps it was only in the morning when the servants came to visit her in this room, that Minagros’ death would be discovered.

“Master…..”

Fokalor suddenly calls out to me with anxious eyes.

“I’ll be fine. Let’s get out of here before anyone finds out.”

With that, we left the house.

Then we took the carriage back to my house.

There were four of us in the carriage, me, Orobas, Fokalor, and Oliax, but none of us spoke a word.

In the end, I wondered what the truth of this story was.

That was all I could think about.

If I had asked Oliax directly, he might have answered me, but I couldn’t do that.

There was definitely a solid bond between Mrs. Minagros and Oliax. I shouldn’t easily step into that. That’s what I felt.

Of course, I would have listened to Oliax if he spoke, but he never opened his mouth.

And I wondered if Oliax had really killed Mrs. Minagros.

To my eyes, it didn’t look like Oliax was doing anything.

So it wouldn’t be surprising if Minagros died of old age and Oliax happened to be there at that moment.

Why would she have asked the demon to kill her?

The truth is out there in the bushes.
