Chapter 381 - Episode Twenty-Seven - Attack of the Doom Tribe (7)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Later that day, I was face to face with Mea in a room at Lark’s mansion.
“…… Mea, I want you to calm down and listen to me. I’m thinking of leaving the Fage territory without Peter’s permission.”
“B-But why? Abel is also looking forward to the Moon Festival Dinmei, even though the wooden dragon that Abel worked hard on is also here …….”
Mea said in a voice that sounded like she was about to cry.
…… If I were to leave the Fage territory without permission, it would be a huge inconvenience to Peter, Altamir, Lark, and Kudor.
It would be no surprise if they resented me for the rest of my life.
“I can’t trust Peter. I’m relieved that I’ve been able to afford it up until now, but …… from now on, I may not be able to be so lenient. There is a possibility that the interests of Peter and I may not be aligned.”
That man has the manpower, high authority, and have a strong will to make even the most unforgiving decisions without hesitation.
If Peter had been a little less incompetent, I might have been able to rely on him a little more without worry.
But that man is dangerous. I’m not as divisive or decisive as he is.
It might be easy to screw him over with force, but I can’t take that option.
It’s not that I don’t like Peter.
It’s just that Peter can move relentlessly in accordance with his own goals, whether he likes it or not.
“…… It’s Mea’s fault, isn’t it? With Uncle Dafne and the others attacking, Abel is trying to leave the Fage territory, right? Mea shouldn’t have stayed alive after all…”
Mea turned her head and let the tears fall.
She said that she had been mistreated more than she should have been because of her bad timing. But when she realized that the Doom tribesmen were following her, she may have vaguely understood that she was in a complicated position.
“I’m sorry, Abel, It’s Mea’s fault that …… this …… But, Mea doesn’t want to cause any more trouble to Abel, Uncle Dafne, or father anymore.”
Mea uttered this while sobbing.
There was silence for a few moments.
“…… Indeed, Mea is the reason. I was told by Kudor that Mea has the power of the ancestors of the Doom tribe, and perhaps Count Julem is aiming to use it as a weapon against Kudor. If Mea is here, maybe Mea’s father will charge in here. I heard from Dafne-san that if that guy really goes off, we don’t even know what will happen to the fage territory.”
“…………”
“With the current situation …… it seems that I’m in Count Julem’s hands. I don’t think it’s a good idea to maintain my current status. The fact that he knows where Mea is is also quite severe. I think the best solution I can come up with is to shake off the eyes of Count Julem and Kudor.”
Until now, I lacked the awareness of being the one to escape.
Considering the fact that Mea was being hunted, I should have been more thorough in hiding our presence.
“…… I’m sure Peter-san and Kudor-san will be very angry. And if Abel doesn’t side with Kudor-san, then Julem-sam will probably be the one who will cause more trouble.”
That may be true.
I think that might have been one of Count Julem’s aims.
That’s why Peter was so afraid of him.
Just as Peter had been, Count Julem had cast a shadow over the turning point in my life.
He’s a man with an unknown character.
“I can’t let Abel go that far for Mea’s sake ……”
“That’s not true, I’ll do it for me.”
I shake my head.
I slowly extended my arm to the confused Mea.
“Mea, I like you. So do me a favor. I want you to run away with me. I want you to stay by my side from now on.”
Mea’s eyes opened wide as if she was taken aback.
After that, tears ran down her cheeks.
“B-But, isn’t that …… going to help Count Julem take over the world?”
“Yes, it might.”
“Wouldn’t that make you an enemy of Peter-san, the Kudor Church, and the Dinrat Kingdom?”
“I’m afraid so. I didn’t want to do it, either.”
“We’d be dealing with a God, wouldn’t we?”
“I’ve shaved off 30 percent. If she comes back again, I’ll blow her to smithereens next time.”
I laughed and answered.
I’m just a human being.
I’m willing to be selfish to protect the one girl I love.
Mea extends her arm weakly toward me.
I squeezed her hand back tightly.
“Thank you, Abel ……”
Mea said with a tear-stained face.
“…… It’s a little more fun when you get it right.”
All right, I’ll do it.
The Doom tribe, the Royal family, the Church, the Great God, the Count, all of them will be taken care of together.
It was impossible for my small arms to protect the world on such a large scale.
I can only hug one girl I like.
And yet, because I’m trying to take on an inappropriately large role, I don’t know how to move.
I lose sight of what’s really important.
If Mea is to be sacrificed, I don’t need to be the hero who saves the world.
If it comes to that, I’ll spend my last day with Mea.
Once that was decided, I had to think of a place to run to.
This time, it might be better to go outside of the Dinrat Kingdom.
I’ll also need a means of transportation.
We can do whatever we want, but we can’t be too obvious.
We also need a magic tool to hide Mea’s magic, but we’ll have to put that off for now.
I’ll try to make something while I’m on the move.
