Chapter 18: Is She the Betrayer?
"Leah!Are you alright!?"
Eve jumped up to Lori's side, picked her up and asked.
"It's fine, just a minor injury. ”
Leah was helped back into her wheelchair by Eve, and although the wound on her arm was burning, it was fine.
"Sister Eve, what are you dressed like?"
Leah looked the goddess up and down, Eve was dressed in the traditional costume of an elven hunter, with an ancient longbow on her shoulder, and even her long blonde hair had turned into an emerald green double ponytail, and she was surrounded by a blast of wind, more like the wind hunter of ancient legends than the mage she once was.
"This, it's elemental fusion, elemental fusion. ”
The turquoise wind broke away from Eve's body, as if a magical girl had lifted her transformation, and in a burst of light, Eve changed back to her original form, and the energy of the wind turned into a small girl.
"Nozomi ...... Silph ......"
Looking at Silph, the palm-sized fairy tale like a fairy tale girl, Leah looked surprised.
"Wait, didn't she leave with Hanufain?"
Leah remembered that the Great Sage had indeed taken the Wind Crystal Spirit with him before leaving.
"Hee-hee, Leah is so stupid, Sylph is the embodiment of the wind, as long as there is wind, she can appear at any time. ”
Eve explained with a grin as she unleashed her healing spell on Leah.
"And then, what is that so-called elemental fusion?"
Leah was impatient with Sylph rubbing her face while saying "Mommy is stupid" in a singing tune, so she changed the subject and asked.
"That's ......"
Eve was about to explain, but the darkness dissipated completely, and the Wind Crystal turned into an emerald green wind and left the castle, returning to the Mage City to help Hanufain tune with the world. So Leah and Eve ended their conversation and gathered with the rest of the group.
"Everyone's alright, right?"
Leah asked, looking at the crowd. Sister Roland. Lomon, Shaunia and Linda, and Lilica all stood in front of them, seemingly unharmed except herself.
Either way, the other party looks like they've fled. ”
Rowan shrugged his shoulders, the previous scene was too dramatic, and the vampire mage came from nowhere. A conspiracy, as well as the vampire hunters who crushed it.
"Just rest in the castle for the night, and I'll set up an enchantment to dispel the undead, which shouldn't have much effect on that powerful vampire, but at least it can be used as a warning. ”
Jessica said.
"Yes. ”
Considering that the other party's conspiracy had been destroyed, it was natural that he would not return here, so Leah nodded.
So they found a few houses in the ruins of the castle to rest, and when Linda and the others were asleep, little Lori sat down in the castle's meeting hall with the rest of the people.
"Let's talk about today. ”
Leah looked depressed. Because she had a thought in her heart that she didn't want to affirm.
"I think it was premeditated, as Romon said, vampires don't choose to live in such a no-man's land, and the old mage saw the trap we were going to be here. ”
Jessica said with a solemn face.
"Well, here's the problem, we've come to this castle without telling anyone. ”
In this regard, Rowan snorted heavily. That's right, the castle that Leah and the others came to was not originally within the scope of the outing between the two cities, and the location was only known to a few of them.
"Is it possible that we were tracked as soon as we got out?"
Rowan's meaning is clear. There are ghosts in the team, otherwise the vampires would not have found this place. However, this is exactly what Leah is reluctant to admit.
"It's a pity. I can't agree with that. Vampires can't move during the day and aren't good at tracking at all. Not to mention - I don't think a few of us are going to be so sluggish that we've been followed for days without noticing. ”
Romon shook his head.
"Well, it looks like some of us did betray everyone. ”
Leah sighed.
"And who do you think it will be?"
Jessica asked.
"It can't be me in the first place, because I'm the victim. Secondly, it can't be Sister Eve, of course...... It can't be your brother and sister. ”
Leah used the elimination method to eliminate several people present. They are all on adventures that have been separated from them for a long time, and they are worthy of trust.
"It doesn't look like it's me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been called into this meeting by you, would I?"
Rowan hung his beard on his cheek with a dagger, and he crossed his legs on the table and looked out the window lazily.
"That's right, because I saw it. When the canopy of darkness is weakened. I saw the person who attacked me - it was a girl with blue hair. ”
Leah struggled to tell the truth, which made her feel sad that the Assassin was her student.
"Blue hair...... I see, it doesn't look like it's a vampire disguised as a corpse, and I don't remember the blue-haired guy in that group. Jessica what about you?"
Rowan's face was even more difficult to look at.
"Nope. ”
Jessica shook her head.
"Neither did I. ”
Romon shook his head as well.
“......”
Eve and Lori looked at each other, and they read each other's thoughts from each other's gazes, neither of them ever seeing the blue-haired vampire.
"Then the truth is simple, one of the three students told the vampires about the location we chose, and tried to assassinate Leah in the dark canopy. ”
Rowan nodded and said the facts that were in everyone's mind.
"So, who the hell is that guy? Do you think there's anything worth noting?"
Romon asked.
"I didn't know, but those three kids were all students I loved and I couldn't believe that one of them had betrayed me. ”
Little Lori shook her head painfully. Her student betrayed her, which made her a little uncomfortable, and Leah really didn't notice anything unusual about the three of them.
"Uh......h I abstain too!"
Eve thought about it with her finger on her chin, and finally abstained.
"So let me tell you. I think that person should be Lilika. Why...... She knew too much about vampires. And it's also a dark talent, you must know that countless vampires have been born in the dark mage since ancient times.
In addition to that, it was she who brought it up to come to this castle, and when the vampires attacked, she was the closest to Leah. ”
Jessica calmly pointed out the flaws in one of the girls.
"No, I'm against it. If she is really a mole, she will inevitably be a little too conspicuous. It doesn't make sense that no one is going to be as noticeable as possible when they're a spy. If I had to say, Linda was the real traitor, because she had the least presence of the three. ”
Rowan shook his head, denying Jessica's point.
"Oh, it's my turn to object. First up is Miss Jessica. According to you, although it was Lilica who suggested coming to this castle, the more fundamental problem was that it was because Shania said that we did not want to go to the designated place of the school, so we had to choose somewhere else.
As for Mr. Rowan, according to your logic, I don't think that a betrayer who wants to keep a low profile as much as possible would agree to be my girlfriend, and it is unreasonable to have to go through the trouble of dealing with a man's daily pursuits and dates while dealing with such a big conspiracy. If Linda had been a traitor, she would have rejected my pursuit from the start.
If I had to say, I think Shaunia was the real traitor, and it was she who advised us not to venture to the designated places of the Academy of Martial Arts, which provided the perfect opportunity for vampires - no matter where we ended up.
And don't forget, she insisted that Miss Leah's office be located, so I don't need to say how much it will help you to spy on your target, right?"
Romon retorted with a beard.
“......”x3
As a result, the three of them looked at each other for a long time......
"No, I insist it's Lilika. ”
Jessica said.
"I think it's Linda. ”
Rowan folded his arms and shook his head.
"It's Shaunya. ”
Romon closed his eyes, tilted his head back, and said as if he was sleeping.
Leah looked at the three of them, completely unsure of what to say.
"Ha ......"
In the end, little Lori sighed helplessly, it seems that this matter is really not so easy to come to a conclusion. (To be continued......)
