At my call, the man slowly turned to my side. “Lady.”

A familiar voice called me.

Whether there was a violent movement, the rabbit mask was half-stripped off, revealing his bare face. “You……No, marquisWhat the hell is this?”

I stammered in amazement, and then I ran to the mirror. “Marquis!”

Why was Vinter suddenly burning in front of the mirror of truth? There was no time to put up such things.

One step into the Magic Circle, I wrapped Vinter’s stomach with the sleeves of the robe I was wearing. This was the only way to put out the fire that was cutting through his body because there was no water. Puck, puck-!

“Ugh, Ugh! Hey, Lady, wait a minute!”

I hit his body with a sleeve, and he twisted his face and groaned. Unfortunately, however, the flames showed no sign of going out. “Just hang in there! Let’s turn off the fire first!”

“No, Ugh! Hold on! I was injured by it! You will get hurt too”

He shouted urgently. I stopped the gestures that were hitting him.

The rabbit mask, which had already been rattled by a sudden beating, was completely thrown off. His exposed forehead was stained with blood.

My eyes opened wide. “Did you get hurt?”

“A little.”

“It’s because of this fire”

“It’s not because of the magic fire. Lady Yvonne, no”

He gently bit his lower lip and corrected it. “I was dealing with Leila.”

A bad feeling hit the point. Before the demon crawled to me, she went to Vinter. “The piece, it’s taken away.”

“I’m sorry.”

My words quickly darkened the Vinter’s face. “Raon was brainwashed.”

“Raon? When”

“Maybe it was at the Solleil.”

He murmured in a bitter tone.

“I couldn’tkeep anything after all.”

A deep defeat and sharp pain passed over the face of Vinter.

His face was visibly haggard as if he had suffered a lot since I hadn’t seen him.

Raon was brainwashed, and I understood at once why the pieces were taken away and why the children became hostages.

Apart from being angry with him, his feelings were understandable.

The helplessness and utter despair I felt when the duke was swallowed by the earthworm. It would have made me feel even more miserable.

Because everything was his fault. “Howdo I extinguish this fire?”

The situation was too bad to pick up the water that had already spilled. I still stared at the burning flames over his body.

It was amazing that the fire was so vivid and still alive. Does a wizard have a strong will to live? “Isn’t it hot?”

“Doesn’t the young lady feel hot?”

Come to think of it, I had also jumped into the midst of the fearless burning magic to save him. I looked around slowly.

“It’s not hot.”

“I’m not hot either. Not yet.”

As he murmured in a daze, Vinter answered in a calm voice. “But you still have to go back, so just give me a watering spell.” “It won’t be useful.”
