Act 2: Chapter 58: Immortal's Report(Side: Lunaire)

After parting ways with Kanata, Lunaire had another meeting with Noble Mimic who had been left behind in the abandoned church at the outskirts of Manarak.

Since her hades’ impurity would cause chaos if she entered the city as she was, Lunaire had equipped her 《Impurity Sealer’s Robe》 again before she entered the city.

After that, she started telling Noble Mimic about the story of Kanata subjugating the demon king, Mother.

「Kanata looked really serious when he told me 『No matter what you do, I absolutely can’t bring myself to hate you, Lunaire-san』... W-What a troubling man. F-For him to say such a remark out of nowhere. I mean, even back then, when I chased him out of 《Cocytus》...」

Noble Mimic just listened quietly, its lid was shut tightly.

Normally, it’d throw in appropriate responses from time to time, but it currently was a silent treasure chest.

「... Do you hear me, Noble?」

「I kNow JuSt HoW FonDly You SpokE of HIm. I Don’T THiNK I Will BE ABle To HEar SometHIng InteResTing EveN If I AsK fOr DetAILs.」

「So Noble doesn’t want to ask, eh. Well it’s only natural since I kept talking about Kanata. I guess you’ve had enough of hearing about him from me.」

Lunaire folded her arms as she spoke to Noble with a pout.

「... BeCAUse That’S NoT WHAt I WanT To KnOw. WHaT I wANTed To KnoW IS WHy, YOu RaN AwAY FrOM HiM AGaIn?」

「E–」

Lunaire looked down upon hearing that question.

「D-Don’t you think that it’s good enough? I mean, I managed to accomplish the main mission. You were also really excited...」

「NoPE, ThAT’S FAr FRom ENOuGH...」

「At least, the situation is changing for better right? What are you being dissatisfied for?」

「... ThEn WhaT ArE YoU GoinG To TeLL HiM WheN YOu MEeT hiM AgAin? Aren’T YoU LItERaLLy PuttING ShaCKels On YOurSelF wheN You ReuNItEd WitH him aND thEn EsCAped ThiS TIMe?」

Lunaire’s eyes blinked upon hearing so.

「... Come to think of it, I did tell him that I didn’t know about 《Impurity Sealer’s Robe》 and I also told him that I’ll be going back to 《Cocytus》... A-After that, I got caught up with the flow of conversation and fled...」

「So, ArE We GoinG To GO BACK foR ReaL!?」

「N-NO WAY!! I MEAN, THERE’S THAT HALF-ELF BY KANATA’S SIDE!!!」

「TheN, SHaLL We GeT GoiNG?」

「I-I refuse to leave! I won’t return even if I told him that I’ll return to Cocytus! Moreover, I also told him that I don’t know anything about the black robe! Doesn’t that mean I’ll only be making a fool of myself if I suddenly appeared before him with the black robe!?」

Lunaire was trying desperately to convince Noble Mimic.

Noble Mimic rolled its body to the side, as if giving up on its master’s stubborness.

「ReAlLy Now, TheN TaKE Me WitH YoU NExt Time... MasTer, YOu’Re Not ThE OnlY One WhO MissEd KaNata. I MiSsed HiM Too.」

「No. I’ve no idea what you’re going to say to him after all. You’ll start saying whatever you want since you can’t understand human feelings. What are you going to do if you spill the beans.」

「MaSTeR... Do You ReAllY ThiNk That I... Am Such aN UnreAsoNAble CheSt? EvEn KaNAta Is TeLLinG YoU THAt He WOn’T HaTe YoU No MAttER WHaT, RIghT? TRuSt Me A LIttlE Bt, WILL YA.」

「Indeed... B-But still, this and that are completely different matters!」

Even Noble Mimic was fed up with Lunaire who kept talking on and on about her reunion with Kanata during their so called tactical meeting.

Suddenly, they heard voices from outside of the church.

It seems there was some sort of commotion outside of the church.

Lunaire then headed toward the innermost part of the church.

Later, five people charged into the room.

The one stood at the front was a tall middle aged man clad in a gaudy robe based on white and red colors.

His head was bald and his body was swelling from being overweight. His face was also swollen.

「What... in the world is this, Priest Dohal...! This place should’ve been abandoned few decades ago and yet...!」

「MIRACLE, THIS MUST BE A GOD’S MIRACLE!」

The middle-aged fat man called Priest Dohal shed tears as he fell to his knees.

「God’s... miracle?」

「Yeah! Now let’s not waste our god’s miracle!」

「I see... in short, we have to do something about this, right?」

「Yeah! Let’s spread this news and made an exaggeration of it in order to gather more donations!」

「I... see?」

While his subordinates were still puzzled, Dohal was already looking around at the condition of the church.

His eyes fell on a magnificent-looking treasure chest adorned with precious metals and gems on its lid. He frowned for a moment and then approached the chest.

「Dohal-sama! What are you—!」

「UHM! SUCH A TERRIFYING CURSE!! THIS TREASURE CHEST IS CURSED!! THIS CITY WILL BE DESTROYED IF WE FAIL TO DISPEL THE CURSE!!」

「I-I see now... But why did such a treasure chest receive a divine miracle?」

「Dunno!」

「I see...」

Dohal stretched his fat index finger toward the door of the church.

「Please carry this to my room! Don’t even think of opening it! Greenhorn like you people won’t be able to handle such a powerful curse! I will try to dispel the curse by myself!」

「Yes, leave it to us!」

The two subordinates then lifted the georgeous-looking treasure chest... Noble Mimic.

「Well then, it’s time to end our investigation.」

「... Eh? W-We haven’t even begun the investigation...」

「I have to dispel the curse on that treasure chest and spread the news about the miracle that happened at this church! Things will get interesting... I mean hectic from now on!」

Thus, Dohal and co decided to withdraw.

Lunaire’s face peeked out from the inner room of the church after they left.

Her gaze locked on the “kidnapped” Noble Mimic.

「Well, maybe I can think of a way out of this situation but...」
