Chapter 427 - Episode Seventy-Three - Destroyer from Ancient Time Moebius (3)

A haze hung over my thoughts.

My hands trembled with anger.

I let Moebius take over Mea’s body. ……?

Mea’s soul has already been crushed by ……?

“Don’t hold up your wand, Abel. Of course, I came to talk to you because I thought there was room for negotiation.”

I realized that I had been unconsciously readying my wand at Shame’s words and pulled it back.

“Room for negotiation ……?”

“Yes, room for negotiation. Mea-chan’s soul isn’t completely gone. It’s just that right now it’s being squeezed by Moebius’ soul and can’t come out. So, if you continue your research, won’t Abel-chan be able to find a way to bring Mea-chan back one day?”

“…… so don’t bother us, is that it?”

“Of course, I’ll give you the opportunity to continue your research. I’d like you to be my subordinate, Abel-chan. Abel-chan, you’ve already taken some of Kudor’s magic…”

So you’re planning to use me as a p.a.w.n, using Mea as a hostage.

I thought you’d given up on that line a long time ago, but…

“I’d like to remind you that …… I’m doing this for your own good, Abel-chan. It’s really hard to persuade Julem to do this, you know. I, too, am more worried about pulling Abel-chan in and taking the risk of him doing something unnecessary.”

“Are you saying that you’re giving this last chance out of pity?”

“…… That’s right.”

Shaym said with a blank expression.

I don’t know what was in Shame’s inside.

It is true that for Shame and the others, Moebius is one of the weapons used to defeat Kudor, not the goal.

They may be willing to abandon Moebius at the worst possible time if it will help them defeat Kudor.

“”Mmm…? I don’t know how to put this, but …… Shame, are you going to cut me down for this man?”

Moebius interjected, but Shame shook her head.

“I don’t think so. I’m just trying to give the poor kid some hope. If he gets desperate and scrambles to destroy himself, that would be a disaster. Moebius knows better than anyone that there’s nothing you can do to rip him off, don’t you?”

“Hmm …… is that so?”

Shame says that so easily.

Moebius was looking at Shame suspiciously.

I held my head and told myself to remain as calm as possible.

Shame says she’s giving me a chance to study Moebius.

And …… if I have the support of Count Julem, I can be confident that I will be able to greatly reduce the magic power of Kudor.

I don’t know if she really means it, but Shame is showing her support for me.

…… Of course, since she tricked me into taking out Mea, I’m sure her top priority is to get the pieces to defeat Kudor.

But Count Julem is the kind of guy who wants to start a world war to defeat Kudor.

If I’m a part of it, it may lead to the indirect killing of hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of people ……

I don’t understand his vision of a world where spirits completely dominate humans.

I turned my attention to Moebius.

Moebius is turning his arms as if she were checking his body movement, but when our eyes met, she stuck out her tongue and smiled seductively.

“But Shame, if you’re so eager to negotiate, you’ve got a lot on your hands with this guy, don’t you? Hmmm …… if you look closely, you can see that he is quite a handsome man. Good, I’ll allow you to serve me, if you like.”

…… To be clear, the means of getting Mea off Moebius is quite difficult.

Mobius had just said, “It is indeed a different kind of test than the previous ones”.

Perhaps this is not the first time that the Moon Festival Dinmei has taken over the Red Stone.

The story of the Doom tribe being quarantined in a remote area after an incident 500 years ago is well known, but perhaps Moebius, who came down to earth for some kind of test, did something unnecessary to test her strength.

Five hundred years is also the cycle of the Moon Festival Dinmei, which also coincides with this event.

However, it is said that this time the Moon Festival Dinmei is coming closer than ever before.

The descent of Moebius in the past Moon Festival Dinmei was really only a test and it was not in perfect condition.

The problem here now is that Moebius can travel back and forth between the Moon Din and the ground many times.

Even if Moebius’ body dies, the gravity of the Moon Din will be able to retrieve her soul again.

It may be an ability to sleep until a new red stone is born …… This means that even if I succeed in getting Moebius out of Mea, there is a good chance that Moebius will try to possess her again.

I shut my eyes and thought about it for a while.

“…… But since Mea’s body has already been taken over, it is certain that I have to find a way to get Moebius out of her completely.”

The thoughts that I had been gathering came out of my mouth.

Shame exhaled in relief.

“You mean you’ll accept my proposal?”

“Carry”

I raised my wand.

Six magic circles appeared around me, with an equal number of Ortems.

I brought some of the Ortems that were loaded on the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl by means of teleportation magic.

“…… What do you think you’re doing?”

Shame glared at me with cold eyes.

“I don’t need you guys to lend a hand if I just want to beat the evil spirits out of her. Shame, I’m going to knock you down and take Moebius with me.”

“…… Are you insane? Didn’t you see how unrealistic that was? That’s why I came out to negotiate with you, you know? Because Abel-chan …… you can’t attack Mea with the intention of killing her, right?”

Moebius laughed and took a step forward towards me.

“That’s interesting. I’m not averse to a strong man, either. I find your recklessness a bit ridiculous.”

As I moved my wand, a teleportation magic circle appeared around Shame.

Shame’s body moved instantly to a corner of the hall.

“…… You can do this until you’re satisfied. You’ll soon see it’s all for naught, though.”

Shame has no intention of partic.i.p.ating in this fight.

“Moebius, let little Abel-chan understand …… Of course, you can just go ahead and kill him.”
