The Daughter of Evil - Volume 2 - Chapter 5.1

✥CHAPTER 5, SECTION 1✥
Epilogue

The whereabouts of the devil?

✥ Kyle ~ Lucifenia Kingdom’s “Hall of Sounds” ~

The Lucifenian Revolution was a success. The “Daughter of Evil” was sent to the guillotine, which is only natural. But what we didn’t expect was the one who was executed was a substitute. The real Rilliane is nowhere to be found.

Even so, I don’t have any intention of finding her, even if I hate her to the point of vowing vengeance. My hate for her is indifferent. Maybe because of the servant who willingly replaced her, impressed me. I don’t really know.

If I would trace back, will I be able to know when and where did the fate of Michaela’s gear gone out of control? From the point when her body was found inside the well? Or because of my declination of engagement with Rilliane? Or much more earlier… from when I saw her in Keel’s mansion?

No, it has to be much more further. Back at the time when Keel showed me his collection.

It was – I remember the magical sword called the “Venom Sword”… When I handled that sword for the first time, I immediately felt a wrenching, fearful and but comfortable feeling.

Keel asked if I wanted to buy it, but I refused. I had a strong hunch that I wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Since then, I was unable to suppress the feeling of intense passion. Out of my love for Michaela, the consequence bought Lucifenia and Elphegort into a big mess.

The cause of this incident was no other than me. Even when I joined the revolutionary army, I am still to blame.

It’s terrible. Is there anyone who can stop me?

I removed the handle from the hand mirror, which was a gift from my mother when I was a child. Even though I hate her, I can’t discard it. This mirror severed my confusion.

A whisper came from the mirror.

Commitment.

Everyone is committed to their feelings.

……I’m not wrong. The road I’m following is the right road. Not only for Lucifenia but for Marlon as well will justice be served.

My revenge is not over yet. Not until I find the one who killed Michaela.

“Kyle your highness! I have something to report!”

A soldier frantically ran and kneeled beside me.

“Did something happen?”

“York and Germaine escaped from the palace. We heard they are going to station southeast from the lake.”

I underestimated those rebels. I thought they were just a bunch of fools but they seem to be a lot smarter than I thought.

“We have been found out. But it doesn’t matter, stop them when they reach the Reitasan Fort.”

“Yes your highness!”

“What about the “witch hunting”?”

“A few days ago, we received some notifications in Lucifenia and Marlon but there wasn’t any reliable source…”

That blonde girl was Rilliane’s servant. She said she was the daughter of one of the three heroes, Mariam. That is absolutely unexpected information – information relating to the real murderer of Michaela.

My mistake was I let the real murderer run away before I could take action. Even so, I must find her.

“Go find and arrest the leader of the revolutionary army, Germaine Avadonnia!”
