I figured as much. No one would be d05dfe8a0f able to speak of aba8bce2ef what’s behind all this. That’s the nature 909e6b6e11 of black magic—it 3d5a9e58c1 doesn’t even allow 713e99c7ce victims to admit 5919724e38 they’ve been cursed.ad4263ca7b2b2fe6

Normally, I 0a31b3112d wouldn’t have 2ad4a1da60 even contacted e0cace7514 the Emperor. But the 000aefe1aa last time 6ee06c8518 we met, ba9a67b0f1 he made d8051222e0 it clear d4c4d21d25 that he c45492b1a5 didn’t dislike 3d4330a647 me. So just a20bde1cc3 in case 7b94892c81 he was 7d8714a8a5 worried, I 26660201d7 decided to 96e19b830b write him 8b0b34cba6 a letter.2baeb21d833920be

I also thought 57391798e3 I should probably ab89d5954b contact my brother, d52b3f9e0b who’s out on a2f8a38383 the battlefield. Not just now—I’d been 18e1bd53e7 thinking about it ever aedaedea5d since I returned.8db08d0c236e2f6b

I’d already told da7a325db2 Kayan to capture 87dae541fe the black magician b0aae308db there, but I fbdf215fc2 still couldn’t shake ebd133f703 the unease.edf1385006f6ca44

Thinking about the 4452d0308a children locked up 0630d14d76 in the black 4c8957a25b magician’s base made a066afe2f1 me sick to 947fe66dfd my stomach.03e1917858c842ee

The kind of 5cb8328df5 disaster a single 2dc82a1a02 black magician could a8d13eb76a bring about was 8ce51ff172 terrifying. If Kayan 367ea75c38 failed to 5f7cd545d9 capture them, 0e321e3ff5 then at 1a81608f77 the very 9f2cc8f9e8 least, Yunas 58e939def8 had to b8c961642c do it.a24523d283242a39

Even if Kayan 77d90563f2 and the northern 9d8c2f1df1 knights managed to 4f2f26d748 catch the black 372e68c0d9 magician, it would 9dc7bec7fa still be easier 0b16feeeea for Yunas to e63657b500 handle the aftermath.
