Only the structure was solved, wary of the white-squeezed girl who named herself Mia. Otherwise, I decided I couldn't get Luther's information out of her.

"Just fine, I wanted to ask you something. What do you mean my voice can't reach Luther?

"It means as it is. Today, I've asked you a favor for that."

"Please?"

"Please, help Luther"

Needless to say Jared was surprised by Mia, who offered her head deeply at the same time as the words.

I don't even know what to help Luther from, wait for Mia to continue her words, but she has no sign of lifting her offered head.

"In the meantime, give me your head. I don't understand the story. What are you saving Luther from?

Mia, who gave her head up slowly, looked like she was going to cry and said away to the dialogue,

Brainwashing.

"-"

Jared extinguishes.

"Luther has also been caught escaping from the facility with you. So, Dolph Ein has been watching me for a long time, and I've been brainwashed."

"Stupid, brainwashing magic... it was hundreds of years ago when something like that was happening?

If you're adding, only brainwashing magic was repelled even in an era when witchcraft was going through a golden age. Sorcery developed by malicious sorcerers with no good sense but to create slaves and soldiers just to fight is the brainwashing magic. Brainwashing magic, which was said to collapse personality and conveniently reconstruct, is also a magic technique that is very difficult, even at the time, with few users.

I don't think modern magicians can use that at all. In the first place, how can it be reproduced in a modern era where brainwashing magic itself is lost?

"I hear Wahash, the head of Vault Toyfel, has lived since the days when magic flourished. There are also many lost sorceries in the literature owned by that one, and Dolph seems to have used his position that was close to him to steal it. But as a magician, I couldn't use brainwashing magic or anything on that man who wasn't endowed with talent."

"I guess."

Even if there were literature, ancient magic is not as easy as it can be used overnight. Sorcerers at the time apparently far surpassed modern sorcerers in qualities and magic powers, so there are many sorceries that are not reproducible in modern times, even if the means were known.

I'm not sure how many magicians Dolph Ayne is, but I was sufficiently convinced to hear he couldn't use brainwashing magic. Instead, they would have rounded off all suspicions that Mia's words were not credible if they were said to be usable.

"But that man put incomplete brainwashing magic on Luther. To make up for the incomplete sorcery, I planted a grudge against you and tried to turn it into a tool designed to avenge you."

Just asking brings up anger.

"But Luther's spiritual strength is strong, and his resistance has awakened him to the magic of lightning attributes - resulting in the form of following Dolph Ayne to fulfill his resentment, hatred, and vengeance for no reason whatsoever, Jared Murphy"

"Now we have one more reason why we can't forgive Dolph Ein. So, you said you were a partner, but you have a role to play, right?

"Yes, my role is - it's a medium to maintain the brainwashing magic put on Luther."

If he noticed, Jared was fleshy on the girl and his neck was tightened with one hand.

I didn't kill him, but if I keep doing this, sooner or later the girl dies. Still, I don't think I mind. Because I decided I could solve Luther's sorcery without this girl.

"that I, Luther's, buckwheat, and give magic, with... incomplete, brainwashing, magic, maintained, now, su"

"So I will kill you on this occasion. You brainwashed my brother."

When I leave it to my anger to try to snap my neck,

"I will die, brainwash, unravel, et al., gladly, die."

Instead of begging for my life, I loosen my hands to the girl's words and tears that I said would die for Luther.

On her knees on the ground, waiting for the girl who coughs loudly to calm down before urging ahead in a cold voice.

"Keep going."

"Yes, if I refuse to play my part in maintaining brainwashing, it will definitely be disposed of. But I'm not afraid of that. If it's for Luther, I'd be happy to give you this life. But I want to know why I can't."

"What reason?

"The man was half forced to do it when he applied incomplete brainwashing magic to Luther. Because of this, I cannot sustain it unless I regularly contain disturbances of magic and instill magic from the outside. At the same time, if we stop maintaining it, we don't know what incomplete brainwashing magic will do to Luther."

"Is that why you're only doing what you do to maintain the status quo?

The girl asserts herself without strength.

But sometimes I don't know. Even if you are asked for help in this cheerful state, you do not know what you can do.

Ask Mia to know the answer.

"What do you want from me?

"Please help Luther"

"I see that. What am I supposed to do for that?

- Kill Dolph Ein.

"Okay. I'll kill Dolph Ayne."

Mia opened her eyes and revealed her surprise to Jared, who responded instantly.

And with a trembling voice with expectations,

"Are you sure?

He asks me to ask, so I accept.

"Absolutely. I can't forgive you for just using Luther like a tool, but more importantly, for planting vengeance and hatred against me - I can never forgive you."

"But you kill people, don't you?

"It's not something I can be proud of, but I'm not saying I've never done a kill. I promise. I will save Luther."

"Thank you, thank you"

I'm sure I've never been able to reveal it to anyone before and held it in alone.

The girl, who wished to save Luther, was able to attach Jared's cooperation and began to spill a whimper whether her heart had loosened or not.

Thanks to Mia, Jared figured out what he needed to do.

Without a doubt Luther will appear before his eyes as an unprecedented and powerful enemy. But I will not kill you, I will defeat you. Then defeat Dolph Ayne and unbrainwash Luther. That's Jared Murphy's duty.

"Just one last thing, tell me. Why would you want to save Luther until then?

What I didn't know more about was why Mia acted. Has your feelings boiled down with your actions for about a year, or is it simply out of guilt?

"Luther didn't even have a name. He gave me the name Mia. He's a loved one who's always there to protect me. I truly love Luther. So I want to save Luther."

"Well, then let's save it. With our hands."

Reaching out to Nodding Mia, Jared makes her stand up. I got angry with Mia once, but she's a more important collaborator than I've found that she heartily guides Luther as well as I am.

Jared, who was able to learn the truth, renewed his readiness for the battle to come.
