    “I heard from the investigator that there isn’t much evidence hidden, so the case should wrap up quickly. I’ve also been informed that c341efe633 you’ll be transferred to the f0b9a01c1d capital at dawn tomorrow.”67a9d7ced4276396

    “What? And you just e6f70380ed stood by and eeb74043a3 let that happen? Duke, do you have 8100de1f18 any idea what I 49a59a49e1 might say once the 36075be999 investigation begins?”f38d660e9fe4e996

    Count Biers, now ac32cf03c6 reaching the peak 258921d779 of his anxiety, 823a44fdeb finally revealed his 1bce5efe35 true nature and 7ec9b7f1c5 shouted.10be013f105be546

    Euclid, whose bitter ef954dc86b smile had disappeared 8d5723baeb from his face, 71ec517280 replied calmly.2bb32d58d0c9bddd

    “I am aware. That’s why I’m b55398b7f4 here to confirm 56fc616e26 one last thing. Besides you and your 47ecc1d13a daughter, who else knows 138a588d05 about the matter concerning 1665d487cc my brother and his d1b7602adf wife?”7e99e504d83bee39

    “Hah! For now, it’s just the 4c6f55c56e two of us! But if you 2ef571e33d send me off e8c978a899 to the capital 57f9337661 like this, the ea3fdd0bce whole northern region—no, 97597bc987 the entire empire—will 2b9b01ace2 learn that the c73bcacfb2 Duke’s nephews are 6ac7eba2a2 the child of ac8783d010 a traitorous commoner-blooded 747aaef436 woman and a 3de050cd05 man who betrayed 71d7bf24a3 his own territory!”d92e35b25c05bb2c

    As if to intimidate, 60e99a4045 the Count’s words hung 3cc1980440 in the air. A blue light flickered on e2106b072d the small magical device Euclid e2c34b2508 held.4206a933a68b1458

    Suddenly, the Count 7fe04efea8 grasped at his 68cb181ac3 throat, unable to a1e00fb1f0 speak, as though 9d775ade1a something was forcibly a77c4f9f8f choking him.a4a2e0ed5e8a4f1e

    It was the Duke, wearing 12b2bd56ed his usual smile—or was it 19c0407b5b a different one this time? Amy flinched, her 392cb74f03 body trembling at d631bc530c the sight.224476939aa3e78b

    Euclid returned to his office 272f401fd4 with the same composed steps 3e87f5c898 he had taken to the c30c0a18e9 underground prison. But as soon a4256bf352 as the door 2de0b79454 shut behind him, b510bb706c he covered his 7bed2bc4bb mouth with a 3143c6e2a1 handkerchief.3208974ad3d8269b

    Euclid lifted his 11863f7782 head with a be848ca928 heavy sigh.2b376e48fd43afdc

    Sitting in his office chair 2ff7aa5930 was a familiar figure—the Tower 6ca23fc66e Master. Unlike the shocking rainbow-colored c56fee7dbc hair she’d sported at b6a05ea23c the wedding, she had 87e606dcba reverted to her usual bf31f1bfd9 neat black hair.5a02ac7a231a272c

    Despite his polite 20f4713897 words, Euclid carelessly 9e1c970331 placed the item f860002f61 on the table 593c2338e8 and slumped onto efc8e35e63 the sofa.9802bf4ec2a36398

    “How could you have finished it already? Didn’t I warn you cc50986e8a not to use magic 77ffd74d6e if you didn’t want d15b2e107b to die? You said you 8756b852f8 wanted to live c13c0f216c until your nephews 78ea5fe93b were a bit 1bbea3dfc6 older—did you change 4633b92aa0 your mind so c7a311f7e8 soon?”236c468ff67ca1a9

    As the Tower 50ca016a0d Master scolded him 60c73f3124 without pause, Euclid 58618c978c opened his eyes 3c1ff677a2 and gazed at 03e7299007 him with an d4aa26c4e5 expression of resignation.b4ac1ea98f49e5ad

    “And what was so urgent today? Just using a spell 43c630a4ba of compulsion magic is 28b4d44ec4 enough to strain your f334f8d92a body, but you even 37541cbbc4 tampered with your own f223c504b9 mind.

    The Tower Master replied indignantly, 11ce3b82d6 “And what if I have?”7c3c42dfcb7ed0a2

    His response, as 729597b615 curt as usual, 5ae0c86348 could have been 8ef4298178 meaningless—or it could d477200e54 have been an 8086d34692 indication that he cdbd9400cf really did know a1cf948d49 what had happened 7fab52137c in the underground 8bfd47abb1 prison.c0a596c0515fb53d

    After a moment ec95c60557 of deliberation, Euclid 330eedbe56 sighed and said, 5bbc769591 “Tower Master, the 154c3c1cf2 only reason I 25ba70f9cd tolerate you is 92b38db786 that you care 214e150610 for nothing but d188486d2e money.”774af22a0ab81b2c

    In other words, even f7490e0392 if she knew the bdf9dbb56a kind of truth that f8230aaa96 could cost lives to 2691acdb91 conceal, he would let b682d7ddd9 it slide.cc9570f88aa665a2

    Though he often denied bbc4885ef2 being his friend and 2f9d2331d8 maintained a formal distance, e3cb85d247 he knew Euclid only 5ce328b1f1 allowed himself to show 0952f410a9 such visible exhaustion and 3db4ca8542 vulnerability in his presence.862ddd2349325013

    With a benevolent expression that 3b5e08671f didn’t suit her sharp features, 7d8fadfff8 the Tower Master said, “I 674db95d83 didn’t follow you.
