In this world, the brighter your talents shone, the darker the shadows of corruption that draped over you.

Just remember that if you fall to the temptation of darkness, youll lose precious things. If you keep that in mind, at least you wont make the worst decisions possible. Just like Sir.

Becoming a mage Might be more frightening than I thought.

Its the same for everything. Even if you come to serve Lou Sola, there will still be other temptations.

Lucis eyes suddenly grew big. Could I become a priest too?

You can become anything you want. Maybe you could even become a sacred knight. You have the blood of a knightly household flowing in you too.

. Lucis mouth hung slightly open.

It didnt seem she could believe she had so many options.

But to Ian, it was a completely viable story.

Luci is still young, and her talents would capture the eyes of priests as well.

Perhaps what Maeve had wanted was for Luci to become a priest rather than a mage.

Well the decision belonged to Luci

Its not something you need to worry about now. You can start thinking about it after this journey ends safely.

Youre right. Since I might end up going to the empire.

Ians expression instantly hardened.

He turned to Luci and spat out

That will never happen. Absolutely not.

.? Luci looked bewildered, seemingly taken aback.

That was a natural reaction.

She had no idea what she would experience if she was taken to the empire.

I must have spoken out of turn. Shall we go back to talking about familiars instead?

Whats there to go back to.

Having ended the conversation abruptly, Ian abruptly stood up.

Huh?

Miguel, who had been dozing off next to him, looked at Ian standing up and seemed to shake off his drowsiness, opening his eyes wide.

I thought it got quiet.

No, I was just lost in thought about something else. Quite deeply.

Ian jerked his chin at the jab.

Go lie down and sleep. Ill drive.

Oh, if thats alright with you Then Ill impose on you for a few hours. Miguel awkwardly moved to lie down in the back.

Taking the reins, Ian drove the carriage wordlessly, not saying another word to Luci either for the entire night.

In fact, he hadnt even imagined that Ian would take his words to heart.

Why the surprise? Do I look like someone dying to kill people?

No, thats not it.

Of course, emotional reasons were not the only ones for Ian to agree.

They would most likely encounter a large pursuing force up ahead.

It would be necessary to reduce the absolute number of those blocking their way.

From experience, even weaklings could create unexpected variables if they appeared in great numbers.

Of course, Miguel, unaware of such thoughts, could only blink blankly.

Ian added. As you said, most of the soldiers were just dragged there. Terror planted once or twice beyond their sense of duty will make them back off on their own.

I guess But will that be easy?

There were only three on this side.

Ians calm voice continued,Let them know there are things they dont know.

Huh? Miguel turned around with a narrowed brow.

Ian was standing there with his robe draped over him and his hood pulled down deep, and the cloak he had gotten from the maid over that.

Ian then rummaged through his clothes and took out a magic wand.

It was an ominous, knobby magic wand with a purple gem embedded at the end.

Miguel blankly asked. What is that thing?

Its the magic wand used by the dark mage of the underground tomb.

What did you say? You kept carrying around that cursed thing? Where? Was it that magic to hide things in midair?

Something like that. Ian calmly replied while removing the gem embedded at the end of the magic wand.

A dark mages magic wand? Wow. As Luci exclaimed in admiration and reached out, Ian slapped her hand away.

This object is cursed. Its better not to touch it.

It has a curse too?

Ian glanced sideways at the appalled Miguel and snickered. Dont worry. This curse only affects the wielder. Anyway.

He stretched out both arms.

This should be enough so my identity is not revealed.

Uh You certainly dont look like a swordmaster.

Finally realizing Ians intention, Miguel cautiously added. Will you really be alright? Its true magic is unmatched in intimidating yokels, but you said to conserve your power.

Then should we just kill all obstacles in our way like before? That would also be sufficiently effective.

No, thats not what I meant.

Withdrawing his objection, Miguel decided not to think too hard. Do as you wish. Ill just follow as usual.

In any case, it would be better than suffering the guilt of killing innocent people.
