7 – Zera, the wicked woman – 3

In the quiet living room that Harvey had left, Zera and Argyle were staring at the door that Harvey had closed, seemingly at a loss for words.

Thanks to Harvey, who threw such a big poop and left, Argyle was unable to get up for a while and Zera also dropped her hands.

anger? Shame? It wasn’t that kind of feeling.

The fact that Harvey knew everything and came to them, and that the reason he came here was to warn them, upset Zera.

“..Argyle.”

“Yes, miss.”

” wake up. “

” ..All right. “

Zera helped Argyle, who was still kneeling, to her feet.

The voice was loud and clear, but there was clearly a tremor mixed with embarrassment within it.

“How did you know?”

Zera pressed her lips with her finger and opened her mouth.

Zera’s words not only explain how he found out that Argyle was a knight, but also that he is being watched.

And most of all, how did that idiot find out? The inner meaning was hidden.

“…I guess I have a helper.”

“Helper?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes, I am a ghost knight who operates secretly within the family. There is no chance that Master Harvey will see through my years of experience.”

“..I guess so.”

Zera gently nods her head at Argyle’s argument.

As she said, Harvey’s magical talent is approaching 0.

It was an absurd lie for a human who could not use even basic magic, let alone detection magic, to feel the gaze of Argyll, the stealth knight.

Thus, Argyle suggested the possibility of a helper.

No matter how much Harvey is a famous scoundrel in the Arthur family, he is the legitimate eldest son and head of the Arthur family.

The force that follows him must exist somewhere.

” puppet.. “

At that time, a certain conclusion was drawn in Zera’s mind.

What if a group of powerful helpers looked after Harvey, promoted him as the head of the incompetent family, and controlled the Artur family as they pleased?

“..that kind of thing..”

That should never happen.

The Arthur family was a prestigious family with a long tradition in the kingdom.

The progenitor of the family is a descendant of a dragon and a unique war hero who saved the kingdom from the threat of the empire.

Numerous renowned wizards and newly developed magic techniques derived from him.

With the Artur family in the kingdom, the kingdom was able to grow into a power that could rival the empire.

But what if a force hostile to the kingdom takes control of the Artur family and is manipulating Harvey for their benefit?

“Absolutely not!”

” miss? “

Boom!

When Zera gets up from her seat, Argyle is startled and calls out to Zera.

“Miss, calm down…”

“No! Absolutely not!”

Despite Argyle’s dissuasion, Zera seemed confused and was chewing on his thumb with his teeth.

Of course, the Arthur family was in a position of competing with the Hernández family, but that did not mean that one side completely collapsed.

“Argyle!!!”

“Yes? Yes!”

“Hurry, let’s check on that guy right now. There’s definitely something there!”

“Miss…what Master Harvey just said…”

“I’m fine on my own!”

” yes? “

“If I sacrifice myself and the kingdom becomes better, wouldn’t that be enough?!”

” ?? “

Argyle must have sensed a sense of alienation from Zera, who was increasingly speaking incomprehensible words, and just wiggled her hands and looked at Zera pitifully.

“What are you doing! Don’t go faster!”

” …yes. “

Argyle thought.

Even though his tone and atmosphere have changed, Harvey is still a great man who makes Zera’s temper shine.

********

“There’s no one here, right?”

Gradually, the force entering the muscles begins to relax.

Maybe it was because I was so nervous, but before I knew it, my clothes were filled with sweat and my legs started shaking.

“f*ck..”

When I finally arrived at a deserted place, I put my back against the wall and went downstairs.

“Whoa..”

He lets out a sticky sigh marked with tension.

A little while ago, I met a candidate for heroine in a novel, Zera Hernández, who would greatly contribute to killing me in the future.

“Zera Hernández.”

Zera Hernández, Harvey’s former fiancée and a heroine who likes Orphée.

and.

“Blind prosecutor.”

He mutters Zera’s nickname as if he is bitter.

In Act 1, around the time Harvey appeared as the main villain, Zera helped Orphée, who was being bullied by Harvey.

Due to that incident, Zera was completely out of Harvey’s eyes, and Harvey, whose feelings for Zera had already reached their peak due to the breakup of the engagement, got into a fight with Zera.

At that time, someone from Harvey’s team fired a killing spell at Zera.

To block the magic, Zera boiled up his magic power and barely managed to block it, but he fell into a state of severe magic overload.

As a side effect of magic overload, Zera lost his eyesight.

This caused an uproar in the academy and the Hernández family, and Harvey was completely kicked out of the family because of it.

Incidentally, the Hernández family sent a chase team to find the person behind this, but the person who fired the killing magic at Zera was already found dead in the mountains.

The body was completely burned, and there was no information that could be recovered, so the case was closed.

Zera will no longer be able to see the light forever.

“Ha, f*ck.”

Even though I didn’t do it, I felt confused when I met the girl whose life changed because of me.

“Your eyes were very pretty.”

Her light yellow eyes are reminiscent of forsythia blooming in spring.

When I thought that my beautiful eyes would never see the light of day because of Harvey, I felt confused.

“I need to change it.”

I decided to follow the historical research of the original as much as possible.

Now that I think about it, it’s safe to say that the original story has already been distorted since I possessed Harvey’s body.

In order to preserve the historical facts of the original work, it is possible to make Zera lose her eyesight.

If he did that, it was clear that he would be hired as a murderer by the Hernández family.

And more than anything, I didn’t want to do that.

Even though it was a world where murderous magic was rampant, I did not want to destroy universal humanity.

“It would be better to sacrifice my own body.”

It’s better for me to sacrifice myself.

If I roll a little more and endure a little more inconvenience, Zera can live and see the light until he dies.

hehehe.

I spit out spit on the ground that seems to be a mixture of tension, anxiety, and concern.

If the janitor cleaning the academy had seen this scene, he would definitely have said something.

“First of all, we have to catch that bastard and kill him.”

The full-scale appearance of the dark group in the novel occurs in the third act.

Acts 1 and 2 could be said to be a preview foreshadowing a fight against a dark group.

As proof, the author sprinkled countless pieces of cake in the first and second acts, and collected them all at the end, earning enthusiastic cheers from readers.

A typical piece of rice cake from Act 1.

That bastard who was Harvey’s bully.

Although not specifically described in the novel, he was a treacherous guy who always stayed by Harvey’s side and provoked Harvey’s unstable emotions into causing trouble.

I can make Harvey angry! I can control Harvey’s emotions! A crazy gas spraying bastard who thinks that.

The bastard who treated gaslighting like a living was the villain of the first act who was eventually chased down by the Hernández family and killed, but remained an unpleasant bastard to the readers.

However, since the author did not provide proper information, I do not know the name and exact appearance, but there was one characteristic that was easy to recognize.

That’s right.

Jump and jump.

“Huh? Aren’t you my brother? What on earth are you doing here? Are you even drinking?”

Green hair, a strange affinity that clings to you like a strange chi.

” Brother, why are you sitting there like a dog chasing chickens, did she say something again? “

At that time, someone spotted Harvey and started running towards him, waving as if he was happy to see him.

A familiar voice that makes your body react, and a guy who treats Harvey, a huge outcast at the academy, as his older brother.

And…even that strange tone of voice that unknowingly criticizes Harvey.

That impure ideology that even secretly expresses active hostility towards Xera.

“…?”

I found it, you bastard.

********

Rattling.

In the western part of the kingdom, a carriage was rattling along on the road towards Norrington Academy.

The carriage with the eagle-shaped seal is a carriage symbolizing Artur, a family representing the western part of the kingdom.

Perhaps thanks to that, the carriage was moving smoothly toward its destination, receiving luxurious treatment along the way.

And the two young men and women riding the carriage.

“…It’s burdensome.”

” what? “

“This…such…reaction. It’s the first time in my life that I’ve received such excessive favor.”

“What are you talking about? I don’t think it’s something a son of the Artur family would say.”

” ha ha ha. “

White hair reminiscent of bright light, and red hair similarly reminiscent of flames.

The two seemed to be close, having an informal conversation.

“What are you worried about? Orphee.”

“I just have a bad feeling about something. Don’t worry too much, Sally.”

The man’s identity is Orphee Artur, the second son of the Arthur family and a man with brilliant talent.

And by his side is the proud knight, Orphée’s childhood friend, Celie, who dreams of becoming a knight to protect Orphée.

The two were now heading towards Norrington Academy.

“Is it because of that bastard Harvey?”

“…No, nothing like that.”

“It’s not because that crazy bastard is running around the academy right now.”

” ha ha ha… “

Orphee laughs at Celie’s sharp point.

Seeing Orphée like that, Celie let out a long sigh.

Orphée was always like that.

A person who smiles and forgives even if someone spits in his face.

To put it in a good way, he is generous; in a bad way, he is a brat.

Orphee, who had been abused by Harvey since childhood, was so pitiful that she extended a helping hand to him.

Orphée did not want to put pressure on Celie.

To be precise, he was a good person who did not leave others suffering.

“Ugh, you idiot.”

“Don’t worry, I was prepared this time too.”

“If you speak well…”

What if Harvey persecutes Orphée even within the academy?

If I could make tears come out of Orphee’s eyes once again.

“I won’t leave you alone.”

For a moment, there was just a little bit of murder in Celie’s red eyes.

“…”

And Orphée looked at Celie with concern.
