Chapter 84.1: Neutral Nations Conference (5) ! Thank you to Baccano998, mjspixel, and Pop for the donations! ^^

After the meeting, we returned to our accommodation.

In the evening, a banquet with dinner was prepared, so once that was over, the schedule in Earth Hill was over.

I spent time leisurely in the room provided for me since I prevented the outbreak of war and accomplished all goals, so there was no reason to leave right away.

I leaned back on the sofa and stared blankly up at the ceiling, thinking about what I had to do.

The top priority was to find the heir to the Holy Sword in Santea.

This was something that I had to be really careful about. That’s why I didn’t entrust the collection of information to the Shadow either.

Like when I was looking for a mystery, I have to run and find it myself..

The problem was that the location of the heir at the present time could not be accurately specified.

There was a place where she was supposed to be, based on the information from the game.

However, the range was so wide that it would take considerable time and effort to eventually find it.

There are also those things.

In the realm of Santea, I knew the hidden places of two mysteries.

However, neither of them were abilities that I desperately needed right now.

I had already obtained various mysteries from Calderic and my specs had improved, and I was no longer a sunfish who would die easily.

But of course there’s nothing wrong with getting it.

Absorbing a lot of mysteries didn’t have any side effects, so it’s better to get the mysteries that were still available.

The full-fledged search for the heir would have to be done after I took care of those two mysteries.

Of course, there was no guarantee that I would get it. For one, those hidden locations were hard to find.

And the meeting of the Lords..

The meeting of the Lords that would happen shortly after could overlap with what I was trying to do and thus becoming a variable.

There were still two commands remaining from the Overlord. I was not in a position where I could refuse it.

I still didn’t know why she asked me to attend this meeting with her, so it was unknown what else she would try to order.

I still have a lot of things to do, so I hoped she wouldn’t bring up something annoying..

“..”

While thinking about this and that, I slightly turned my gaze to one side.

I scratched my head as I felt Asher standing motionless outside the door.

I saw her when I came in earlier. She had an unusual atmosphere since yesterday. Without thinking, it must be because of the existence of the General.

General Cayden was the one who slaughtered Asher’s family, and the emperor and the imperial family was the one behind it.

How would it feel to not be able to do anything even with their tribe’s enemies right in front of them? I couldn’t possibly imagine what that feeling would be like.

In fact, the massacre of the White Moon tribe, ordered by the imperial family of Santea, was not something that was quietly buried with no one noticing.

It was a catastrophe that had already caused outrage within the Empire.

And the person who was pointed out as the culprit was the fifth prince and his aides.

The real mastermind behind the massacre was the emperor, but the one he pushed as the culprit was the fifth prince.

Lagging among his brothers, he was just following his father’s words to be acknowledged. But in the end, his own father threw him under the bus.

Asher was the only survivor of the annihilated White Moon tribe.historical

This incident that had already been concluded in such a way. Even if a survivor like Asher revealed her identity now, it would not threaten the emperor. So, there’s nothing she could hold on to.

At best, she could at least receive an apology from the imperial family. But who needed something like that?

So, if Asher really wanted revenge, the only way to realize it was to get blood on her own hands.

There would be no proper way for her to avenge her clan’s enemies unless she killed the emperor and the General with her own hands.

But it seemed to me that she hadn’t quite decided yet. She didn’t even have the ability to do that in the first place.

How could she, who was still only level 82, handle the emperor, who was the head of a huge power called Santea, and a level 91 general?

It’s also not a matter I could easily get involved in.

To kill the Emperor and the General.

Obviously, Asher was a precious person to me.

I wasn’t simply saying that because she was an outstanding talent.

I had already been with her for almost a year. We were together most of the time.

It was not simply a question of whether I could solve that problem for her. There was no way she would want that.

No matter how much I thought about it, she wouldn’t want to get revenge on her enemies by asking me to do it for her. For her, there would be no point in doing that.

In the end, the best I could do was just help her grow.

So that when she had decided, she would have the strength to do whatever she wanted.

“..”

To do so, I had to quickly take Asher to that ‘place’.

It was a place where Asher could achieve dramatic growth by exploding her potential, and it was also a place where a being, who could tell her the information about her tribe, was sleeping.

Of course, I already knew that there were no surviving White Moon tribe members other than Asher.

But telling her that directly would only arouse her suspicion, so it’s better for a third party to do it.

Then my trouble deepened.

Should I prioritize finding the mysteries and the heir first, or should I take Asher to that place?

..Ah, I don’t know.

I shook my head and laid down on the sofa. Let’s just think about it slowly.
