Becoming the Villain’s Family - Chapter 238
Chapter 238
Sabina got the rough idea of it.
There is no need to compare the difference between the power given by the devil and the power of the devil itself.
“You know that wizards use mana, right? Mana is the force obtained from the energy of all life on earth.”
The energy of life on this land and the devil.
Sabina realized what Yannick was trying to say.
“Are you saying they are polar opposites?”
“Rather than opposites, I would say it’s more like a food chain relationship. It’s getting eaten one-sidedly.”
“In that case…….”
Sabina tried to hold back her words, but she decided to just speak out loud. This is because there is no time to be considerate of others in the current situation.
“In that case aren’t the wizards in this castle useless?”
Yannick seemed to have been hit quite hard by Sabina’s words.
“But you’re right… we wizards are useless!”
“No, why are you so serious…?”
Sabina asked, trying to dissuade the boy that seemed to punish himself.
“Are there no other means of quelling the ‘devil’s malice’?”
“Of course there is, calling the Pope.”
The Pope. They couldn’t afford to go all the way to Garcia when they could die right now. Because it would be faster for the Grand Prince to return from the imperial palace.
“In the same sense, even high-ranking priests with high divine power works too.”
“Any other way?”
“……a shaman.”
“What?”
“Call the shaman.”
This is what Yannick wanted to say from the beginning.
“You should call Brother Carlin, who was dismissed from the magic world.”
Shaman? But the shaman…….
“As the devil’s servant, isn’t he burned at the stake as soon as he is discovered?”
“That’s right. In fact, that’s why we haven’t been able to bring a shaman to Valentine’s Castle so far.”
“Wait a minute. Valentine is the power of the devil itself?”
But Valentine, the devil itself, is on the sidelines and the shaman is not allowed in.
What kind of contradiction is this?
Yannick added, fully understanding her bewildered reaction.
“It is His Majesty’s command….”
It was ridiculous.
So, isn’t that the same as saying, Grand Duke Valentine is the same as a devil, but he is too powerful to be defeated.
However, the relatively weak shamans are easy to deal with, so they strike them down.
“Whoo… That’s understandable.”
Sabina sighed and touched her forehead.
“If we keep going like this, we won’t be able to hold out until the Grand Prince comes. Then it’s over.”
Yannick said, looking up at her with a glimmer of desperation. She felt burdened because she could feel his persistence.
“There is a summoning scroll that Brother Carlin gave me to use in times of danger.”
She asked, raising her eyebrows.
“You mean you can call him right away?”
“Yes! Just this once!”
“He’s a criminal, right?”
“That’s right!”
“Are you wasting your life?”
Those who cooperate with the devil are also subject to death.
In this Empire, the only name allowed for the devil was Valentine.
“So threaten me, hit me in the face, and yell at me!”
Yannick squeezed his eyes shut and shouted loudly.
“Ha…….”
Sabina laughed.
Apparently, Sabina couldn’t resist the boy’s coercion, so she had no choice but to call the shaman.
“Are you going to pass the blame on to me?”
“Anyway, once I get married, won’t I become a member of Valentine? The person who will be the Grand Princess will not be punished.”
Now she will be allowed to have the devil’s name as well.
‘If I call the shaman, it means that I have no way to escape from this place anymore.’
The moment she called Carlin, she was shackled and stranded in Valentine.
Sabina pursed her lips tightly.
She wanted to save people, so she came running recklessly. But sacrificing her life, her dreams, and her future for them was a different matter.
[Miss, I don’t know which land I will settle down.
But wherever it is, it would be the land that the Miss and I had dreamed of.]
…… Allen.
Sabina remembered a name she missed terribly.
She hasn’t seen him in 3 years.
What kind of face did he make, what did he say, her memory was gradually fading and her imagination was becoming poorer.
She wanted to share her sword with him.
She wanted to hear his affectionate nagging.
She missed him so much.
[You and I can be anything there.
Miss, I will be waiting for you, Sabina, in the land of dreams.]
Sabina wanted to be anything with him.
Either teacher and student, or father and daughter. With her benefactor, who she respected as the only person in her short life.
“Madam?”
Yannick glanced back and bit his nails in nervousness.
Sabina was frozen in a daze and didn’t react at all.
“Madam, there is no time for this now!”
Eventually, Yannick became impatient and raised his voice.
Gerald, who was struggling to maintain the defensive magic, picked up his voice in his ears.
“Yannick, you punk! What kind of nonsense did you say to Madam!”
“I didn’t say anything!”
“Every time you open your mouth, you’re only telling lies! Something bad has already happened and you still can’t come to your senses!”
Yannick groaned and rummaged for something in his arms, squeezing it into Sabina’s hand.
It was a piece of paper. Looking down at it for a moment, the boy lowered his voice and whispered.
“Master is an old school who ignores our only hope in this time of trouble….”
“Yaniicckk!”
“Yes, yes, I’m coming.”
At that time, when he scratched the back of his head and raised his lowered head, he was startled.
“Ma, Master!”
He stammered and pointed.
“Behind! Behind you!”
Gerald turned his head. He turned his neck and gripped the staff so tightly that it seemed like it would be crushed.
Grand Duke Valentine, who had been as motionless as a statue, began to move.
With each and every step he took, the people gathered were trembling in astonishment.
The Grand Duke paused for a moment, blocked by the temporary barrier the wizards had set up, and then raised his hand.
And…….
“No, no way!”
He grabbed the last remaining barrier.
He literally stuck his finger into the barrier and grabbed it.
Violent flames erupted from the barrier that was pierced by his terrifying power, accompanied by an ominous crackling sound.
