A Berserker Mob, I’m Going to Participate in the Main Story - CH 37.1

“Huh. Ada…… was the one that Mister Vince protected, wasn’t she? And now she has run away and is plotting revenge against me?”

From Al’s point of view, “so what?” The story is, “What is the point of this?”

Indeed, now that he has Cyrus and the others, it would be a crying shame if they were targeted. I have taught Cyrus and the others basic “techniques,” but they are not at a level where they can do anything against a mage.

However, even if Ada has grown up rapidly since that incident, I don’t think she will be able to get past the wary Vera so easily. Of course, if Ada were to move systematically with others, there would be some children she would not be able to protect.

“That’s right. By the way, Ada’s name has been stripped and she is now Naina. I don’t know what she calls herself. I don’t know what name she has taken on, but it is a heavy punishment in our family to deprive her of the name she was given at birth. …… Well, that’s OK, if Naina just left, it’s only a family problem. I promised Mister Al that I would never let her out of my sight. As soon as we find her, we will take care of her and that will be the end of it. But that’s not all there is to it. …… Which brings us to the second part of the story…”

Vince clearly said he would take care of Naina. Some of the senior leaders around him were clearly displeased with his words. Even Al could sense it. But even so, Vince was not wavering at all. Al felt that the lenient attitude that used to be there was gone.

He again stops short of saying so. Al is now not impatient to talk to him as soon as possible. He was not saying much, but I could see that Vince had made some sort of resolution. He sips his tea and waits quietly.

(It sounds like you’ve already decided to talk about it. …… Is it that big of a secret? Ada…… No, Naina. That she is coming at me with malicious intent is only a problem between her and me. I’m not going to hold Lord Vince and the others responsible for it in any particular way. ……? Well, I guess you could say it’s the family’s way of settling the score.)

As I wait, thinking about it, Vince opens his mouth again.

“Mister Al. First of all, I mistakenly thought that you were a person with some kind of secret mission. But it was not so. I was just a chance meeting and acquaintance. The world is indeed full of wonders, both good and bad. Mister Al. You don’t know that we are ……………… the Mazoku, do you?”

Silence. It took a while for Vince’s words to register for Al.

(…… Ha? The Mazoku? Is …… that demon tribe? Huh? Are Lord Vince and the others demons? Why?)

Despite the confusion, Al finally learns about the demon tribe. But from the point of view of Vince and the others, it is too late for that.
