Of course, for someone as strong and fit as him, it is unlikely that he would get hurt like that just by tripping over his own feet. Especially when the staircase wasn’t extraordinarily long and steep.
“Someone pushed me.”
“Then why did you lie before?”
“Because I didn’t see who pushed me clearly.”
Latil opened her mouth wide at the High Priest’s unexpected answer.
“If I talk about this without knowing who the culprit is, an innocent person might be suspected. That shouldn’t happen. It would be unjust.”
Latil pursed her lips. What was with this toogoodtobetrue statement?
“You… are you really the High Priest?”
“Did you stop believing again?”
“No, I did believe, but I’m just amazed.”
The High Priest smiled lightly. Latil, finding his refreshing smile interesting, smiled back.
He was a peculiar man, in a different sense from Klein who was arrogant, pompous, unlikable yet honest and cute.
However, as the High Priest’s expression suddenly darkened as if the candle was put out, Latil’s expression also hardened.
“Why? Are you suddenly not feeling well?”
“No, it’s not that. It’s about the person who pushed me.”
“You think you know who it is?”
“No. But the person was not ordinary.”
“That must be. The person must be very strong to be able to push you.”
Ordinary people would probably bounce off if they tried to push the High Priest. However, the High Priest shook his head.
“That’s not what I mean.”
“Then?”
“The person who pushed me… Though it was a moment, they exuded an extremely evil aura.”
“Evil?”
“Yes. Moreover, that aura was too dark to be a human.”
Latil’s expression became serious.
‘I thought there could be enemies hidden within us. But could it be that this enemy is not even human? Or is it a black magician?’
[This is the time separator]The High Priest and Latil concluded that whoever emitted that evil aura was not a Ghoul or a Vampire.
Zombies could function under the sun but they clearly looked nonhuman, Ghouls and Vampires could pass off as humans but they couldn’t function under the sun.
But there was no one in the palace who only worked at night. The High Priest too was attacked when the sun was blazing.
“If it’s an evil being, there is a high chance it’s a black magician.”
After reaching such a conclusion the next day, Latil put the High Priest in a wheelchair and personally pushed it around the harem garden thoroughly.
To find someone exuding that malevolent sensation, the one said to have been emitted by him, or at least someone who gave off a similar vibe.
“Do the sounds of the birds not please you, Your Majesty? We do seem like a real couple, don’t we?”
“Start by looking for the suspicious ones.”
I wonder how much she had gone around doing that.
“Huh?”
Suddenly, the chancellor gazed somewhere, pointing with his finger and exclaiming.
“Your Majesty, that person!”
The culprit? Latrasil was startled, looked in the direction the chancellor was pointing at, and was even more surprised.
In that direction was… Ranamun.

Short scene 2:
