“Well, I thought you’d show up.”
Late that night, I was sitting alone on a bench in the dormitory courtyard when a man with silver eyes appeared before me… I smirked as I looked at Lucio.
When I saw him at the school building the other day, I thought he might be the one, and as expected, this man turned out to be Lucio.
“So? Should I assume you’ve come to curse me to death for interfering with Florencia’s murder?”
“…………………”
I said that to provoke him, but Lucio didn’t answer.
However, his silver eyes were filled with something like anger.
“Let’s see… If I remember correctly, you had a crush on Florencia, your childhood friend, since you were a kid, and you were planning to confess to her once you became an excellent Sorcerer, but she was too talented, so you couldn’t say anything, and there was no progress at all, right?”
“Hmph!? Y-you…!”
When I told him the information about Lucio that Themis had told me, the man’s face turned bright red, and he groaned.
Well, if someone else were to talk about your secret first love so frankly, it’s bound to be embarrassing. I would definitely die of mortification.
“While that was happening, your father gave you a Spartan education, saying, ‘Dark Elves are a disgrace to Istania. Don’t fall behind such people.’ He even went to the trouble of telling you endlessly how ugly and defiled Dark Elves are.”
“S-shut up!”
“Torn between your Feelings for Florencia and the pressure from your father, you finally cursed your own father to death two years ago. Since it was a curse, of course, no one thought you killed him.”
Moreover, he apparently went to her, elated, saying, “Once I become the head of the Sol family, no one will be able to blame me for my Feelings for Florencia. Florencia will also acknowledge me as the head of the Sol family.”
“And then, she coldly rejected you, saying she only thought of you as a younger brother, and you resented her and ended up where you are now, right?”
“Shut uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup!”
Lucio, whose shame exploded after I revealed everything, raised both hands and screamed.
It’s no wonder he’s about to go crazy, since he probably feels like he’s being publicly executed.
But.
“You’re the one who’s going to be quiet.”
“Wh-!?”
Monica, who had somehow gotten behind him, severed Lucio’s head.
It would have been hopeless if she had remained hidden, but now that he’s appeared in front of us like this, Monica and Sandra can easily defeat him.
Even if he is an Evil Attribute event boss.
“As expected of you, Monica.”
“Thank you very much. But it was too defenseless, which was disappointing…!”
Lucio’s hand, or rather, what was Lucio, wrapped around Monica’s kneeling leg.
“…Filthy.”
Monica frowned, cut off the clinging hand, and jumped back from the spot.
Lucio’s body was changing like mud, and he picked up the rolled head and reattached it.
“…Is this also an Evil Attribute ski… no, a Blessing (Gift)?”
“Yes, it is. It’s 【Marionette Maddy】.”
Florencia appeared from behind me and said so.
I had her hide in the shadows in advance in case Lucio appeared.
“But, in order to activate that Blessing (Gift), you have to be within thirty meters. In other words,”
“It’s certain that he’s lurking somewhere in this dormitory.”
Lucio’s target is Florencia, and I don’t think he would do anything to harm the other students, but there’s always a chance.
I glanced at Monica, and she disappeared in an instant.
“Now… Can I leave that mud doll to you?”
“Leave it to me.”
Florencia nodded and raised her hand.
“【Marionette Maddy】.”
Similarly, a doll made of mud covered Lucio’s mud doll.
From the size of it, the difference in ability between her and Lucio is obvious.
“Phew, it’s over.”
Lucio’s mud doll was absorbed by Florencia’s mud doll, and she exhaled deeply.
“Not yet. It’s not over until we defeat Lucio.”
“…That’s right.”
At my words, Florencia looked down with a pained expression.
She probably understands what will happen to Lucio after this.
Yes… I don’t intend to let Lucio get away with this.
If he were a normal enemy, I might have considered Florencia’s Feelings and chosen to leave him alone, but since he is a ‘curse,’ an existence that I can never defend against, I have to end it here.
Otherwise, my ‘Precious Thing’ will be hurt.
“Let’s go. It seems Monica has found him.”
“Yes.”
I looked at Monica, who was signaling from the dormitory window with a lamp, and took Florencia into the building.
