Chapter 386 - Episode Thirty-Two - Gizel's Attack (3)

I was running through the port city of Radam, with Mea’s hand in mine.
Mea’s guard Ortem, was behind me, and Gizel was chasing after her.
“Bro-, brother, please wait! Why are you running away!”
I felt so awkward that I just ran away.
To be honest, I was expecting to return home when the heat was off and feel somewhat forgiven, so I wasn’t prepared to face Gizel at all.
I fled into an alleyway and huddled behind a crate, gasping for air.
“Gi-, Gizel, I didn’t know you had that much stamina ……?”
I understand that my stamina is a little lower than normal, but still, that stamina is crazy.
In the first place, I’ve had more opportunities to travel long distances since I’ve been out of the village.
Since I was in a position of responsibility, I couldn’t just do research all the time, so unlike in the village, I wasn’t holed up in a small room for a month.
However, even though we had run a long distance, Gizel’s running speed did not seem to slow down at all.
Her physical strength was clearly beyond normal.
“Where did you get that kind of physical ability ……!”
“What? M-Mea can still run too, you know?”
“I-I see ………… I see.”
…… I think Gizel might have had better physical strength to begin with.
It’s like that, yeah.
“W-Why did Abel suddenly run? She’s a girl you know from the village, don’t you?”
“It’s awkward, I mean, I don’t know how I’m supposed to face her now ……”
“Ehhh …… If that’s the case, it’s best to talk to her about it if there are any lingering issues. She didn’t seem to have any ill will towards Abel, after all ……”
I’ve been told that it’s normal.
“N-No, well, she’s my arranged marriage partner, my little sister. Remember, I told you about this a long time ago, didn’t I?”
“…………”
Mea’s expression suddenly disappeared.
“Me-Mea?”
“If Abel really doesn’t have such feelings for her, why don’t you just say no without sneaking around? I’d like to see you completely cut loose with her. Mea doesn’t want this to drag on and on.”
Mea grabbed my sleeve tightly and said.
I’m afraid because my fingers are strangely strained.
I can’t help but notice that Mea’s guard Ortem seems to be staring at me from behind her back.
“I-Is that really what you think?”
I let out a whisper and look up from the crate to see my surroundings.
“Because Abel, you ran away from that girl, right? And Abel, you told Mea that you loved Mea, right? You said you would stay with me forever, didn’t you?”
Mea said as if to confirm.
“Y-, Yeah, I did, and I still mean it, of course.”
“You should tell her that too! Can’t you?”
I gently held my head in silence.
“Okay! If Abel doesn’t tell her, Mea will tell her!”
Mea stood up from the crate with a sulky look on her face.
I also stood up and grabbed onto Mea’s shoulders as if I were clinging to her.
“W-, wait! I have my own preparations and ……! Okay! I will, I’ll tell her! Hmm?”
A single Ortem came running down the alleyway.
When it saw me, it turned its face around.
“Oh shi……!”
A magic circle unfolds from the Ortem.
It is a teleportation magic circle.
The magic of this system can only be transferred to the place where the magic formula has been applied beforehand, but if it is engraved in the Ortem, it can fly to the side of the Ortem it is transferred to.
I am confident that I taught this to Gizel a long time ago, as I had read in the literature that this was a common practice of the old Marren tribe in war zones.
For a moment, I thought about rewriting the magic formula in the magic circle, but I decided against it because it might hurt Gizel at worst.
Gizel’s figure appeared.
She appeared, spinning around on the spot, and took the Ortem in her hand.
On the side of her opposite arm, she is holding a strange grimoire.
I’m curious about what’s inside, but that’s not the point.
“I’ve been away for a while, but you’ve grown up, Gizel. I’m glad to see that you’re able to use practical magic. I’m happy for you.”
If she could do this much, she would be better than not only Shibi and Noswell, but even father.
The Ortem’s was moving pretty fast, so she was probably using some kind of magic to share his vision with that Ortem.
I wonder if she wore it out of necessity on her journey. That’s my sister.
“Thank you very much. I’m very happy that my brother praised me.”
Gizel looks at me and smiles.
I was caught up in it and laughed too. I’m glad to hear that she’s not as angry as I thought.
“…… So, why did you run away, brother?”
Let’s correct that.
Her eyes were not smiling.
Mea, who had been so enthusiastic about the idea, looked at Gizel, her face twitched, and she quietly withdrew.
“W-Well, does that mean just now, or a while ago ……?”
“I wish you’d stop making fun of me, brother.”
I looked Gizel in the eye for a while.
But the power of her eyes staring at me made it hard for me to keep in looking at her, so I gently looked away.
I looked at Mea to escape Gizel’s gaze.
&123;ea seemed to be catching her breath and timing her advance.
“Yo-, you really don’t have to do that, you know.”
I grabbed Mea by the shoulders.
Now that Gizel is right in front of me, I’ll have to prepare myself.
There is no point in running away any more …… I just ran away unintentionally too.
I looked at Gizel again, and this time she was looking at Mea as if she was watching her closely.
At that moment, the grimoire that Gizel was holding glowed slightly.
Gizel took her eyes off of me and Mea, placed the Ortem on the floor and opened the grimoire she was holding under her arm.
“It’s okay, Sim-san. I believe in brother …… I’ll do my best so that Sim-san can go to heaven.
She smiled gently at the open page and gently closed the grimoire.
…… What is that grimoire?
