Failed To Abandon The Villain

77

“Are you saying that this is connected to Valletta?”

Milord asked in a strange voice, staring down at the red bead in his hand. The bead that rolled in his hand had strange letters stuck inside it, but it didn’t look special.

‘Yes, it hasn’t been announced, but I’m sure there will be a bounty arrangement soon. It had destroyed the building again, along with a new magic tower pillar.

“It’s outrageous. No matter how much Valletta has changed from before…..”

“That’s not all. We have received reports of numerous deaths this morning.”

The Emperor said, shaking his head with a worried look on his face.

Milord, who opened his eyes wide, made his face firm as if he had something to guess.

“Again…Was it the destruction of the village caused by that magic tower lord?”

No, this time it’s the servants of the Duke of Delphine.”

“You mean the people who were trapped under the building. I heard that their condition was serious. However, Valletta distributed the potion, and there are quite a few people who have improved thanks to it…”

Milord’s brows furrowed. His respected father, the Emperor’s expression was not good, so Milord’s expression darkened along with it. Milord clenched his fists.

“…… You don’t think she had anything to do with this?”

“There was a problem with whoever took the potion. Moreover..”

“What? No way. It’s probably just a worsening of the condition.”

“On the other hand, the people who didn’t take the potion to save money had no problem.”

Milord’s face went blank and he shook his head as if he couldn’t believe it. It couldn’t be. Valletta wasn’t such a terrible person. She looked a little different, but that didn’t mean she was someone who would indiscriminately slaughter people.

“Are you saying that she deliberately poisoned people?”

“No poison was found. Gillian told me that there are two possible explanations.”

“Two?”

“It could have been a catastrophe created by the inexperience of an incompetent alchemist, or it could have been an experiment of some kind…..”

Milord fell silent. Gillian was the best alchemist in the imperial family. His knowledge of alchemy was unrivaled.

‘Her ability was outstanding.’

He actually heard Gillian approve and praise other alchemists many times. It was said to be a potion with a very superior level of perfection. It was hard to believe that she had failed to do so. But if he eliminates it…..what’s left? It was only the reality that Milord didn’t want to believe in the most.
