Chapter 194 - Episode Twenty

With the Live Fogg (x50) in hand, I returned safely to the Pargas village.

The bottles filled with Live Fogg were packed in a single bag and carried on top of an Ortem, and Augen is being moved around in the large Ortem, keeping him confined to it.

Once in the village, we were greeted by many Levi followers and people from the Pargas village.

Around the entrance of the village, they came rushing in en masse.

“H, hey …… isn’t that Live Fogg ……?”

“No, it can’t be. That can’t be possible. …… First of all, there’s no way they’d allow him to do that when he was even followed by Augen-san and Kamla-san.”

“But Kamla and Sophia both look dead……”

“What did Augen-san do.”

The church members were all pale and whispering something to each other.

They seemed unsettled in any way.

Maybe it was a bad idea to hunt by dozen, after all.

“Hey Mea, aren’t you too pleased after all?”

“Hmm …… you’re so surprised, you can’t keep up with it, can you? It looks like the church people spent a few days and didn’t catch one of them……”

“But I have a feeling the atmosphere feels different.”

As I and Mea were whispering to each other in a whisper, Kamla grabbed me by the shoulders.

“Fo-, for now, let’s just let it slide and head to report to Nelgliffe-sama. I’m not going to be taking up any time here, and Augen is not something I can …… easily say publicly. Even Live Fogg needs to be handled carefully. Now, don’t talk about anything carelessly.”

I see, whether it’s Live Fogg or Augen, if handled poorly, it could cause unnecessary suspicion in the village.

As for Live Fogg, I don’t know how far the Levi Church has explained itself to the ordinary villagers.

Nelgliffe told me briefly, but apparently, it was a mouthful that wasn’t openly discussed even within the Levi Church.

I wouldn’t be good if run my mouth in a strange way.

“I understand the situation. Let’s go with a policy of keeping it as quiet as possible.”

“…… Oh, and in the unlikely event that Livegrass is no longer available for some reason, Levi Church itself could be disappointed as much as we let it be.”

“Hmm? Ah …… yes, I see. ……”

I’m not sure, but there’s no reason to back down.

For now, I’ll just pretend to be convinced.

“Well, let’s just be amiable here and run through it as quickly as we can.”

“The-, there is a chance that the Livegrass we will not be able to use it? Mea didn’t hear anything about that!”

Kamla was about to put the story together when Mea interrupted him.

She went to pick up the part where I flushed it away as if I didn’t have to ask separately.

Hearing this, Kamla’s expression twisted slightly.

“Ju-, just in case! It’s not necessarily impossible, but it’s more like insurance……”

Kamla turns to Sophia as if to ask for help.

“Ye-, yeah! Anyway, I’ll have to ask for instructions from Nelgliffe-sama. I didn’t expect to get so many Live Fogg, and I was a little confused about how to handle them, too…… It was a journey full of irregularities, so let’s prioritize reporting to Nelgliffe-sama first!”

Perhaps Levi Church is also a vertical society, but it seems to value the decisions of Nelgliffe rather than the other way around.

Nelgliffe seems to be separately lax in terms of hierarchy and rules, but I guess that’s not the case for the organization.

“…… hmm?”

I suddenly found a familiar face at a distance.

It was Elia, surrounded by bewildered-looking Levi followers.

For some reason, she was dressed in Levi’s robes, staring blankly at me with resentful eyes.

I couldn’t help but look away and quicken my steps.

…… Fo, for now, we have to prioritize reporting to Nelgliffe anyway!

“What do you think you’re doing, Kamla-san! What’s with that huge package? Ex-, explain. What are you playing at, Augen-san! What on earth have you been doing too!”

Several young followers gathered to Kamla with puzzled faces.

Kamla glared at them and waved his hands wide to the side, moving them away.

“I’m sorry, but we must hasten to report to the High Priest Nelgliffe-sama! We’ll have you let us pass!”

Kamla raised her voice and scattered the assembled villagers and followers.

As he did so, one of the villagers approached Kamla.

“You were looking for the ingredients for the elixir, weren’t you? You can at least tell us about the success or failure, but that …… my wife is already nearing her limit……”

“I told you my priority is to report to Nelgliffe-sama!”

Kamla pushed the villager with his hand, showing annoyance on his face.

The villager fell to the ground and was often stunned, but he knew he had offended Kamla, and without paying attention to his mud-stained clothes, he just put his head on the ground and apologized to Kamla.

Kamla didn’t even look at the way he looked at him, and walked onward shamelessly.

“You don’t have to go that far……”

Mea looked at Kamla and said that out as she puffed out her cheeks.

“Ka, Kamla-san is also happy around with so much Live Fogg we got! We also can’t wait to follow Kamla-san to see Nelgliffe-sama! In order to reassure that villager, we need to talk to Nelgliffe-sama about our future plans as soon as possible.”

Sophia followed up on Kamla’s words and actions while pushing Mea’s back forward strongly.

I was staring at the villagers who still had his heads on the ground when someone unexpectedly grabbed my pants.

When I lowered my eyes, I saw that it was a small girl, only about eight years old.

She had tears in her eyes and was staring up at me.

I tried to move my feet to remove her hands, but they were stronger than I expected.

As expected, I won’t lose in power, but the combination of guilt makes it hard to get through.

“Um, I have to go……”

“Brother…… C-, can mama be saved?”

The girl said in an anxious, snatched voice.

I couldn’t resist and crouched down on the spot, beckoning for her hand and bringing my face level with the girl’s ear.

“It’s okay. I’ve gathered enough raw materials for about two hundred people. They should be distributed as soon as the cure is ready.”

The girl paled face suddenly brightens and jumped at me as she squatted down.

“R-Really? Thank you, brother! Thank you!”

I patted the girl’s head and then pulled away, giving her a small wave and leaving her there.

The girl was still waving widely as I leave away.

When I see things like that, I feel like I’ve done a good thing.

They asked me not to talk, but I guess I’m safe for this.

“Abel, what did you do?”

“No, just……”

I was about to answer after being asked by Mea, when I suddenly saw the girl from earlier in the corner of my eye.

“Lily-chan, what did you hear from that white person just now?”

“Brother said! He got enough ingredients for about two hundred people, so we don’t have to worry about anything else! Everyone is going to be saved, he said!”

“Is-, is what he said true!”

All at once, the fuss was communicated, and soon it turned into cheers.

Some were hugging each other with great joy, while others were running, shouting loudly that the village had been saved.

Some were bowing over and over again towards us.

“…………”

I, I should have kept my mouth shut……

Well, it’s not that big of a deal.

If things go in order, they’ll end up making the cure and that’s it.

I didn’t think there was any particular reason to hide it now.

I’m sure Kamla and Sophia don’t think it’s that important too.

“Really, I’m sorry, Kamla-sa…………n?”

Kamla looked at the villagers, his lips quivering in a rutting manner.

His eyes look completely pissed off.

In a whisper, he whispered, “What the hell are you doing ……?

The tone was serious.

“I’m sorry Kamla-san …… really, I’m sorry Kamla-san. It’s really that important, is it? I don’t think it’s necessary for me to be stingy with them…… No, I’m not trying to make excuses. ……”

Kamla ignored my words and turned his face forward with a wobble.

Then he looked beyond that, shook his shoulders with a jolt, and fell onto his back.

“Ne-Nelgliffe-sama!”

If I followed Kamla’s gaze, I saw Nelgliffe and Chloe slowly coming towards us.

Chloe tightened her grip on the large staff in her hand and stared at Kamla with a vein in her eyes.

If only we could get a certain amount of Livegrass, Chloe’s faction’s plans would have to be foiled.

And perhaps Augen, who was Chloe’s subordinate, has now been neutralized.

I’m sure she’s not at peace inside.

I glare at Chloe.

The enemy this time is this guy.

I don’t know if there are any other bosses, but there should be no doubt that she is in an important position in another faction of the Levi Church.

Chloe noticed my gaze and her eyes widened.

She appears to be very angry.

“Oh, Abel-dono and Mea-dono! It’s good to see you alive! …… and your package there and…… um, what is Augen doing ……”

Nelgliffe smiled happily and took my hand, then looked to Ortem, who was holding Augen.
