28. Leo, Getting In Distress (After)

Leo then managed to scratch the words, spinning a toad and an objection.

'Ya... eh, why? Why this timing? I mean, you can't use magic at this time of year in Eland, can you?

"Technically, we can't activate magic anew. The previously activated magic continues to unfold. That's why we're still being replaced and the magic of language restriction is continuing. '

hypothetical, but added, Lena went on further.

"The magic of this replacement, Leo. After the first change of body, the magic to stop the body from engaging with both souls continues to unfold in very small amounts. All I've ever thought about is striking it off with new magic (...) and replacing my body again. But it's not, and if you deplete that magic with spiritual power (...), the soul should be free of nature and toward its original body. '

Instead of "deploying the magic of replacement" again, "let the magic of replacement that was originally deployed dissolve".

Then she undertook that even in this environment where she could not exercise her magic, she would surely be able to achieve it.

"And I also know how to ensure that much spiritual power"

Tell her so, she somehow glimpses Bruno.

Leo put his hand on his forehead and desperately tried to understand Lena's theory.

'Like I got it, like I don't know... Does that mean you're gonna have to run out of magic? Even when I reduced my magic with my demon-sealed bracelet, it was pretty tough, but that's pretty bad, isn't it?

What is remembered is the figure of Alberto, who was under a demonic seal.

At that time, he seemed badly ill, and I think the Marquis managed to say, "Even life is in danger" or something.

And yet you run it, and it's something that's okay - Lena.

'Cause if she comes back to teasing her body from scratching her magic, she's not going to be able to do it, and her life is so glocky, she can do it chained up.

Is it almost impossible, for example, to escape from this place in such a state?

'... Shut up. Every thing in this world carries risks. "

'No, I don't know why. Why are you taking that risk?'

"Anyway, you can hardly use it even with magic. It's better if I'm captured without magic than if I'm captured with a fool without magic. I may not even make it to rush. Then it would be quicker for me to be you and get out of here. It makes sense, doesn't it?

Leo was not fooled, though he was told off in his usual arrogant tone.

Don't change your mind. I'm asking you, "Why did you increase your chances of survival when I caught you?"

'... perhaps even to exercise spiritual power, we need to define the magic that needs to be eliminated. To do this, you must be connected to this one with a crystal. I think it's time for this crystal to be the limit of endurance, so once...'

"Lena!"

- Shut up!

When Leo shouted to block him, Lena shouted back louder than that.

She dyed the rest of her cheeks red and must have stared at this one.

'You, talking in a po or po or a sweet tone, do you know what this situation means!? It's desperate! He's about to kill me! You're dying, because you switched with me!

To that word, and to the desperate look on Lena's face like I've never seen before, I'm much more breathtaking by accident.

Anger or frustration.

Her face, which tided her cheeks with intense emotions, even looked like she was crying.

'I've made things worse for you, but if I were you, this whole situation would be happening because I switched bodies with someone else cheaply. I can't imagine people dying because of that. You can't forgive me!? I'll take care of this in my name. You have to be very helpful!

It's a fucked up theory. It is also an arrogant way of saying it.

But the will that dwelt in those eyes was stiff, and the temperamental look was more filled with humanity than any she'd ever seen - and seemed preferable.

"Lena... you"

Leo raised his gaze and looked at the door, then small and lifted the edge of his mouth as well.

"... I guess it's stupid."

"Ha!?

"You're so smart, something's always wrong."

Yes, and Leo makes me snort inside.

You come up with a body replacement with a bat because you don't want to deal with an aristocratic man, or you try to jump into a situation of absolute desperation yourself because you have to wipe your ass.

The idea is always bold and flighty.

"For an orphan bastard, I can't believe a girl dies,... that's more unexpected, and you can't be forgiven. My parents will cry."

But I woke up because of it.

If you can only get rid of your predicament by replacing it, then you shouldn't ask for help.

At least, Lena - only to a girl who is transgressive, smart, weirdly responsible and instrumental, she shouldn't have.

"... Leo? What? '

'You mean this communication itself won't help. Okay, I'm sorry, but I'll hang up. But the next time you call, you might not be able to take it in and get out. "

"Leo......!?

You understand the disturbing signs, Lena makes you stretch your face and call your name.

Peeping into his anxiously open, pale eyes, Leo slowly told him to teach his sister.

"You were about to get attacked by a man, and you hated him, didn't you? Then... for a while now, definitely, don't play crystal '

"Leo!? What the hell... -! '

Shut down the communication forcefully by approximating the laner screaming at the crystal.

Leo raised his gaze again, making sure that the crystal fell into his hands without a puffy force and eventually melted away.

- Is that him? Kill me, bitch. "

Even the Weitz woman.

"Woman or child."

The door that Aryl Addo left earlier.

Gi......, and from behind the open, heavy stone doors, many men, come in, loose.

Is it a slum dweller to see from the intonation?

Everyone is uniformly naked and wearing a black headscarf with only their eyes creased out, in order not to make them identify their faces.

"... ha"

What a picturesque absolute fatality.

Leo pasted a grin as he woke his upper body from the altar.

"Leo......!? Leo! Hey, no, what the hell, Leo...!

Lena continued to scream as if confused, to Leo, who abruptly disappeared from the crystal.

"Crystal......! Play it! What Leonora von Harkenberg looks like now! Crystal! Play it...........................!

I cast a Weitz spell, and I get a vegan tone, and I burn my throat.

Still, Lena continued to cast a spell as she scratched her throat, but although the crystal emitted a pale light, it did not reflect her opponent.

"Leo......!

Blue faded and screamed cut, silent.

Lena fluttered as she pressed her unconsciously lifted hand against her forehead.

What did he say now?

Instead of an orphan bastard, it's unacceptable for a girl to die.

If you don't like men, don't play crystals -?

"Why, that...!

I can't believe you're a hero covering girls, not a pattern.

Stupid, energetic weather, troublesome bodyguard.

Only such thoughts swirl at a head lacking calm.

What Bruno was saying was true.

He doesn't believe in free love.

Instead, I can't even think of myself as a beloved subject from around me.

I have no doubt that that life is lighter to be sacrificed than a selfish woman.

So when this happens, you throw it out lightly.

"I'm not kidding... Huh!

My emotions dawned unexpectedly, and Lena nearly cried.

Now, at this moment, more painfully than at any other time before, she regretted her past choices.

I shouldn't have switched.

A man's life was not a good thing to ravage, honestly, inadvertently.

It wasn't because it would cause more damage to me, it was something I shouldn't have put my hands on in order to protect its dignity.

If you've been replaced, whatever you did, you should have taken immediate steps to put your body back together.

"Spirit...!

Lena prayed sincerely to the Spirit as much as she could say for the first time in her life.

Apologize.

Atonement.

I'll do anything, so please don't take his life on your own behalf.

On the side, Bruno also stands still with a blue face.

Those black eyes seemed tense, open and desperate to reject this situation.

"Mr. Leo! Mr. Bruno!

And there, the voice of Kai sounded, along with the sound of tearing the grass.

He breathed on his shoulder, "Was it here...!," he told the two of them in a hurry.

"What do you say!? Did you get any clues from the Spirit!?

…………

Words don't come out of my gut.

As Lena remained stunned, Kai, reading the expression, frowned unfortunately, but immediately tightened her face.

"After discussing it with everyone else, Lord Al and Oscar decided to split it into two hands. Horses are faster than tailoring them to carriages, so we assign two horses to each."

Fortunately, the horse pulling the carriage was also being tutored for horseback riding, which meant that Alberto would drive one to Eland and Oscar would turn back to Weitz with the other to play the situation to the Emperor along with the snow singing bird.

"Me and my lord will wait for dawn to descend the mountain and head to Eland. Will Leo and the others, too?

I stare at Kai, who explains it vividly, blurry.

Staring, Lena was, behind that brain, visibly circling her thoughts.

(Think... Think...)

How can I help Leo?

What is the optimal solution for this occasion?

(The fastest way to Eland is to entrust it to the Crown Prince than to drive a horse to me. But he doesn't know where Leo is being held captive)

If I were you, I could know the place.

The crystal, as long as it plays.

Getting ready, Lena opened her mouth.

"Kai. Al... No, His Royal Highness Prince Alberto is still there, isn't he?

"Uh, ah, yes... water the horse..." His Royal Highness Prince Alberto "...?

I nod at Kai for a moment, staring firmly into his eyes.

That's how short, I asked for it.

"Let His Royal Highness speak."

It may also be that regenerating the moment Leonora von Harkenberg was captured exposes his nature and this replacement play goes bankrupt.

Escape can be very difficult.

But - still, Leo's life is more likely to be saved.

"I have a serious lead in my hands."

With that said, Lena let the crystal mounted palm protrude toward Kai.
