章 14: The Last Day
Deep underground where even moonlight couldn't reach.
In a room illuminated only by eerie flickering flames, Reina and I were
conducting the final check of our plan.
This place would be familiar to Reina,
although she wasn't the type to get emotional about it.
"Are you sure everything is prepared?"
"Yes, everything is proceeding smoothly."
"That's good, that's good. I've raised you and nurtured you for ten years.
Finally, the time has come for you to be of use to me. Make sure you do it
properly."
"I am sincerely grateful."
I wonder what Reina is thinking under that emotionless mask-like face.
If a [vessel] to replace herself has appeared, she could have been more
agitated… Well, it's just a puppet, after all.
It's downright creepy.
…Well, it's fine. I only have a little more time to spend with this thing.
"We will definitely obtain Mashiro-Leiche this time."
Opportunities with such favorable conditions for me don't come by often.
The land of the Ramdarb Kingdom, where I can have as much leeway as I
want.
An island nation far away from other countries, making it difficult for
interference from the outside.
And the only academy head who thinks of me as an ally.
To capture Mashiro-Leiche, this is indeed the perfect opportunity.
The only concern is that damn brat's unknown technique.
If that kid hadn't put Mashiro-Leiche within his reach, things would have
been much easier.
That brat is really getting in the way of my plans…!
"Damn it… If you had been more trusted by the Vellet…"
"I apologize sincerely."
"It's fine. I didn't have much hope in that direction anyway."
There aren't many people who would care about such a person who doesn't
have a trace of sex appeal.
Especially considering the girls around Vellet that has been entertaining
him.
"…It's finally here. The realization of my ambition is near."
I can feel that my lifespan is coming to an end.
It's been common knowledge for a long time that the lifespans of talented
magicians are short.
The days when things I could do in the past become impossible due to
aging are more terrifying than the battlefield.
I don't want that. I want to keep living. I want to wield my power to the
fullest.
I want to go back soon. To the peak of my youth.
"…The final day. Do you know what you must do?"
"Of course. I haven't forgotten the words that were given to me by Teacher.
I will… "
"…That's right. You must accomplish it without fail."
"Yes. My life exists for Teacher's sake."
