Chapter 152

TL: Zimming

There are two truths I learned as a beggar. First, ‘The person who gave food to starvation appears to be a god.’ I gave the nymphs peanuts and almonds, also all the dried fruits and vegetables in the carriage, as if I was a saint.

“Adventurer, our comrade.”  humans are fools too bound by common sense. Even if it’s wrong common sense.]

“Wrong common sense?”

[Humans use mana when they activate magic tools.]

“No way!”

Henry and Isaac, who didn’t understand our conversation, looked puzzled as I burst out.

[What doesn’t make sense is you humans who think they can’t unleash mana unless you have divine power.]

“You mean that we can eject mana even though we have no divine power?”

[ Heh, still being swayed by the temple’s trick. Ancient humans would hit the ground if they heard it. Humans can unleash manna. Only a special human being can turn it into a special mana, that is divine power!]

“Then the nymphs…….”

I muttered blankly and Purpur answered, twitching his nose.

[You humans do it when you use magic tools. You just don’t realize even though it’s obvious like you’re breathing. The nymphs blocked the mana spurt!]

I hardened and looked at Purpur. A lot of things were tangled in my mind.

“Kid.”

“Leblaine?”

I was chosen as a sacrifice to seal off evil spirits because I had the same divine power as Mina.

Instead of Mina, who had to be eaten by evil spirits in the original sealing ceremony, I was sacrificed.

If Purpur’s words were true, there was no reason for me to be chosen as a sacrifice because I could gather mana and turn it into Mina’s divine power.

‘Then why did I have to die in my first life.’

I bit my lip, remembering the pain of being sacrificed.

I calmed down when I thought of myself in my first life, I had my blood pour out of every holes all over my body. It hurt so bad that I begged them to kill me or cut my throat quickly.

‘……Wait a minute.’

[Mina is amazing. Such a rapid increase in divine power. There’s no case like this.]

[She’s amazing. Isn’t that why she’s the child of fate?]

How was Mina able to increase her divine power so quickly?

I am well aware that it was impossible since I trained since I was young to increase my divine power.

That fast, powerful increase was absolutely impossible.

So I thought it was the power of Adrian.

Adrian was a man of immense divine power and had a very special power to give his divine power to others. That’s why I thought he might have supported Mina from behind.

“Ex, excuse me!”

“Yes, Leblaine. What’s going on?”

“Mi, Mina, can you do me a favor? Can you tell me how to increase my divine power? Oh, no, of course you’re busy, but if you don’t mind…….”

“Ah… … I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. I made a promise to that person. I decided not to tell anyone how to train”

“I see…….”

“Don’t be so sad. Leblaine, you’re doing well enough now. I know how hard you’re working for the people here.”

“T,thank you…….”

“I’m very proud of you.”

The way of training.

That person.

I gritted my teeth.

The temple* didn’t even know that all humans could unleash manna.

Had the temple known that, it would be possible for the current pope to lose authority.

*TL Note: I changed the church to temple

‘Purpur told them. To those who came to find suwon!’

The puzzles that have been messy in my head have been put together by myself.

Nodelli, who has a warrior record, found Suwon, and summoned Purpur through the record.

‘Nodelli already knew Purpur’s name.’

Otherwise, Mina, who has no idea of the devil, could not have known his name.  Nodelli and Marche must have helped her.

However, since there were no adventurers at the time, Nymph was still asleep, so Nodelli and Marche created a fake one.

I grabbed my skirt tightly.

“When you wake up, everything in this mountain, like the nymphs, stops the eruption of mana?”

[Yes, more powerful than the nymphs. I am a great being!]

Purpur replied proudly.

I let out a laugh.

“Leblaine?”

“What did you hear that made you become this pale?!”

Isaac pressed my cheeks with both hands and asked anxiously.

‘Marche and Nodelli knew that mana could also create divine power.’

Then, why did they sacrifice a poor little girl on the altar? Why did I have to die.

‘Dead? No, I was murdered.’

“F, father, please save me! Mina, please!”

I remembered the me in my first life, when I cried and begged.

“The Duke of Marche killed me in my first life.”

I blankly looked back at Henry and Isaac as they hardened.

“What?”

“What are you talking about, kid?”

“Every human being has manna. Mina was able to turn mana into a divine power. I had no reason to die as a sacrifice!”

Henry grabbed me by the shoulder as I trembled with anger.

“Calm down.”

“At that time I was just a powerless and pitiful girl, Duke Marche, and Mina…….”

“Leblaine!”

I looked at him, swallowing the sorrow inside me. Henry said, clenching my hand tightly with warm hands.

“Think rationally. There’s something we don’t know.”

“…….”

“It’s only for you who’ve been through it all. What’s important here is why? Why would they have to kill you if they knew?”

I shut my mouth with trembling hands.

The reason why I had to die.

The reason they killed me.

Fumbling through my head, I grabbed Henry’s arm..

“There is, for one reason.”
