Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"Well, then, let me show you to Agartha College."

May then went to Serloitte and left the room with her. I sigh loudly as I see her off.

For quite a long time, I have been invoking my appraisal skills on this Serloitte woman. My impression of her past was that she was a very happy woman who was loved by her family. Sure, she is always timid due to her lack of self-confidence, but a man would definitely be happy to have such a woman as a wife. This woman's family was so wonderful that it made me feel so.

However, her kindness sometimes brings bad luck. Such a kind woman is an easy target. A good example is the man who seduced her, Mataka of Klimiana.

It was a good decision to force her beloved daughter and niece to come to Agartha. If we do not see them, we forget them. Now she will be in shock because of the loss of her relationship with Mataka, but it will be a beautiful memory in the end.

"I'm glad ...... that you're relieved now."

Sadie mutters to no one in particular. Her intuition tells her that this Serloitte is a woman who will have a great impact on Sadie. A woman who must never be lost. ....... Sadie is so sure. We must save her at all costs. It seems that her mission has been accomplished.

"You seem to be a very sensitive woman."

Rico looks in the direction Serloitte left and mutters to himself. From the look on her face, it seems that she too felt a kinship with the woman. I tell her that I peeked at her with my appraisal skill.

"......Well, I'm sorry to hear that."

Rico turns his head slightly and opens his mouth. Sidi also looks down silently. Only Soleil is still smiling in a bewitching manner.

"I'm sure you'll be fine.

"Well, that's a good point, Soleil. Do you have any reason to believe that?

"Women become beautiful when they are heartbroken. And ...... you may be in pain now, but you will forget it as soon as you find a new love. Don't worry. I'm sure she will be found by a kind man and married happily.

Rico nodded broadly at Soleil's words. On the other hand, Siddee looks unsure. It was a little funny to see their different reactions.

"Mommy! Are you done?

Suddenly, the child's crazy voice rings out. I looked over to see Idea and Piatrice peeking out of the doorway.

"You must wait in your room properly.

With these words, Rico gets up from his throne and goes to them. Sidney follows.

"Mommy!"

Idea runs up to Rico and hugs him. Seeing this, Piatrice also runs up to Sidi and hugs her. They both really love their mother.

"Rico, you need to change your clothes".

Soleil calls out to everyone as she approaches. Rico nodded in response, told Idea to be quiet and wait for him, and left. Idea looked after Rico, holding hands with Soleil.

"Now, when you're done changing your mom's clothes, you two go back to the house. You still have work to do. Sadie, Soleil. I'm counting on you."

They nodded at my words. I looked again at the door that Serloitte had left, and suddenly wished that what Soleil had said would come true. I don't know what the future holds, but somehow I have a feeling that the woman will be happy.

In fact, Serleito later married a man who teaches at the University of Agartha and they have a happy family. Both her parents and the Grand Duke were astonished to hear the report of her marriage to a man more than a year older than her, and her love for a man of different status, the daughter of a duke and an academic, but when they saw their happy faces, they finally accepted their union willingly.

Unaware of the future that awaits them, Serloit, still looking as timid as ever, is taken by May to the University of Agartha.

The two of them were going to the University of Agartha with May.

After separating from Rico and the others, I was transferred to the headquarters of the Agartha army.

I opened the door to a room in the basement, where Matkal and some soldiers were waiting for me. Ahead of them was the man I had captured this morning in the village of Yakkai.

"How are you doing?"

Matkal shakes his head slowly at my question.

"So far, no problem at all. He doesn't talk, he doesn't even try to drink water.

"I see. Well, it's not easy."

The man cannot move his body because of the warding. He is barely able to speak, and can at least drink water, but he has not spoken a word, not even water.

I was not sure what to do with this man. Normally, I would have deported him, but this man has the complete trust of Vieille. If the man breaks off contact, it is obvious that Vieille will send new personnel. I am sure that he will be even more skillful than this man in deceiving my eyes. If that happens, it will be troublesome in many ways.

I thought for a moment about turning him in to Vieille, but I'm sure that she'll play dumb. It was obvious to me that it would make no sense to do so.

I squatted down in front of the guy and turned him on his back, who was lying on his face. He remained still with his eyes closed and did not seem to want to talk to me.

"You've got him, but he's a real pain in the ass, isn't he? If you release him into the wild, you'll end up with this arm. He will continue to hide in countries other than Agartha and do all sorts of backstabbing. Killing him, however, would complicate things in more ways than one. We can't keep him in solitary confinement for the rest of his life. ......"

At that moment, the man's expression changed. He let out a grin. This man knows. He knows he won't be killed. And he enjoys seeing me in trouble.

"No offense. The sooner you let me go, the better."

As if seeing through my emotions, the man opens his mouth.

"Thank you, Mato. You can step back now."

"Are you sure about ......?"

I'm fine. Thank you.

Matkal left the room with his men, his face expressionless.

"You've lost."

At my words, the man slowly opened his eyes, a look of obvious contempt on his face. He looked as if he was telling me not to be a sore loser. I put my hand gently on his face.

"If you had bit off your tongue and died, I would be in even more trouble. But you didn't. You wanted to live to help Vieille. I respect the depth of your love, but because of that love, you lost.

With these words, he casts his spell on the man. I used spirit magic.

"It worked. You took the life of the girl you wanted, just as you planned. Your plan worked perfectly."

"It worked. ....... Success ....... Success ......."

I gently pulled my hand away. The man was looking at me blankly, mumbling over and over again that he had succeeded. I grab the man by the chest and activate the shifting warding. The destination is the outskirts of the village where I captured the man.

"...... What a mess. I hope you found a better way.

He mutters something like that and removes his hand from the man's. The man is thrown to the ground, still staring at the sky. Perhaps he will come to his senses in another five minutes.

I put an order in my mind-magic that every night when he falls asleep, he should write a detailed diary of his day's deeds. This will tell me everything he's doing. I wanted to find out who was behind this man's actions.

The man who came to his senses would soon send a reply that he had completed his orders to the master who had sent the emergency signal. Then he will leave Agartha as if nothing had happened.

...... should we have Sadakichi and the others receive the daily diary? And while we're at it, let's have them keep an eye on this guy. Come to think of it, what should we do about Baron Bon Isao who is waiting for this man's return? Let's leave that to .......

Muttering these things in my mind, I activated the transfer warding and returned to my office in the capital.
