I Accidentally Saved The Male Lead’s Brother - Chapter 88

Morris bowed his head, sweating profusely.

 

Carcel moved to his office and he followed him.

 

It would have been better if Carcel said something, but he felt like he was about to pass out.

 

Especially, since he committed a crime, he couldn’t open his mouth first.

 

He wished his teacher would speak to him, but he only stood in the back.

 

Carcel who crossed his arms and looked at Morris finally grunted.

 

“Well, were you looking for a suitable person?”

 

Fortunately, the topic Carcel brought up had nothing to do with Charlotte. Morris’s head should still be intact as long as he answers his questions

 

He answered with difficulty wiping the cold sweat with his robe.

 

“Yes, this is correct.”

 

“Did you say you were at the Dallas property a week ago?”

 

“Do have proof?”

 

“none.”

 

Magicians such as Morris usually go to the palaces of nobles and are treated as guests.

 

When he visits the noble mansion, he is treated well after taking on the magical tasks required.

 

It was different. He did not visit noble palaces because he had to hide what he was doing. He was walking around the inn covering himself.

 

Of course, he proves his actions.

 

But why do you ask this? Do you think I’m messing around without finding the right person?

 

That was unfair. He’s been getting around really hard on his feet so far.

 

I’ve tried to find just the right one to sound right for each drug.

 

“This is not what I want.”

 

“….. What?”

 

“Have you been to the capital a week ago?”

 

“No, but why are you asking this all of a sudden?”

 

He had a hunch that the situation was very strange.

 

Cold sweat started again, on Morris’s back after he calmed down.

 

“A week ago, an attack occurred during the finals of a martial arts tournament.”

 

“What? Attack? Oh my God!”

 

Morris really had a complicated mind. What kind of venue was the martial arts tournament? There was a crown prince and a saint.

 

There was no way for the man to escape safely. It was a suicide in every sense of the word.

 

“I don’t know who is it by he should be punished with death.”

 

But The words that followed were absurd.

 

“We couldn’t find him.”

 

“He got away? What were the imperial magician doing?”

 

“ sir Ahin was unable to open a door sealed with magic,even though he one of the strongest mages”

 

“What? Was Ahin there too? No, he could’nt open the door? Why is this happening….”

 

Carcel continued talking as he watched Morris mutter as if he couldn’t believe it.

 

“You are the only high-ranking mage who has not reported his actions to the guild who can use such magic, Lord Morris.”

 

“What?”

 

Morris, who blinked bluntly as he couldn’t comprehend the situation for a while, quickly realized the meaning of those words and hastily knelt in front of Carcel.

 

“Well, but I really didn’t do it! That’s not right, Duke!”

 

“………”

 

“If I go to the property in the Dallas Estate where I stayed, I can prove that I have not left the inn for a single day! I have never used the mana gate! If I did, it will be recorded!”

 

“Didn’t you say you were wearing a hoodie? How can I prove that you were at the inn? Besides, couldn’t you come to the capital with something other than a mana gate?”

 

“That’s not true! Besides, I’m not as good at magic as Ahin! If I did that, there’s no way Ahin won’t be able to break magic!”

 

Randru interjected, perhaps pitying the disciple who was sweating so much that it dripped onto the carpet.

 

“That’s right. If Morris had done that, Ahin would have been able to open the door.”

 

However, Carcel rubbed his chin with a complicated expression.

 

“Meanwhile Sir Morris’s skills may have surpassed Sir Ahin’s.”

 

“Can’t we experiment? If I close the door and Ahin opens the door, I might be able to prove it!”

 

“However, I cannot rule out the assumption that the two of you conspired together.”

 

“I really didn’t do that! Believe me!”

 

Morris now started to cry. Carcel called Robert and ordered him to bring Ahin.

As soon as he entered he started muttering in a confused and silly way as soon as he saw Morris.

 

“Where, and what have you been doing until now? I couldn’t reach you. Do you know how anxious I was?”

 

“Mr. Ahin, are you sure Sir Morris’s skills are inferior to yours?”

 

Ahin, who had the intention of quarreling with Morris, replied calmly.

 

“Yeah, as far as I know, it is. It’s been a long time since we haven’t met, so I don’t know what happened back then, but I’m still better.”

 

“Is it possible that the person who raided the martial arts tournament was Sir Morris?”

 

Ahin replied without hesitation.

 

“no”.

 

Ahin was also under Carcel’s suspicion. It would have been worth pushing Morris’s back, but he didn’t.

 

“Skills are skills, but he’s not worth it. He’s just a shy kid.”

 

When Carcel heard this, he muttered to himself.

 

“However, he has been conversing with Miss Lannia quite well.”

 

“What ?”

 

“Nothing. Then can you prove that Sir Morris’s skills are less than yours?”

 

“Yes .”

 

When Ahin put his hand on it, he opened the lock very easily. On the other hand, when Ahin locked the lock, Morris was unable to open it.

 

But there is still something uncomfortable. What if the two people just made this up and it’s all sheer lies?

 

For Carcel, who didn’t know magic at all, it was impossible to tell whether they put magic in force or just a charade.

 

When Carcel couldn’t clear his suspicions, Randru gave him the final offer.

 

“If you are not able to get rid of your doubts yet, I can make them do the master’s oath.”

 

As a teacher, I take care of the two pupils. He was someone who knew more than anyone in the world that his disciples were innocent.

 

Randru had come this far, so it was strange to continue to question them.

 

“I see, you can go out now.”

 

“We’ll go, thank you.”

 

Morris greeted him comfortably, but Carcel caught him before he left.

 

“Only Lord Morris stay.”

 

“Well, I….why….”

 

“That’s because I have something else to say.”

 

Is this about Miss Lannia?

 

Morris alternated between Randru and Ahin with a confused look. An eye was calling for help, but Randru ignored her, patted Ahin on the shoulder as if to cheer him up, and left.

 

Morris knelt in front of Carcel.

 

“I’m sorry. I didn’t hear about your engagement, so the fact that Miss Lanni is your fiancée….”

 

“Did you find the right person?”

 

“What ?”

 

When Morris asked again bluntly, Carcel asked again in a low voice.

 

“I asked if you found the right person. Aren’t you looking for the right person?”

 

“Oh, yeah. I’ve been looking for the right person, but I haven’t found it yet.”

 

“How did you search for the right person?”

 

“I heard from my teacher that the right people are those who experienced death. So I went around every village and asked if there was anyone who was on the verge of death and survived. I visited them and examined them with mana one by one.”

 

Carcel looked at him and said.

 

“But no one was there?”

 

“In the first place, few people fulfilled the conditions. Perhaps the person who experienced the risk of death even those who were seriously ill had already died.”

 

“What?”

 

At that point, Carcel was bound to be surprised. Charlotte came to his mind automatically.

 

She said she had a high fever three years ago. He thought she had simply overcome her death crisis after she had a high fever.

 

‘I’m going to have my doctor take a closer look at Charlotte more often.’

 

If she had been so sick, she would now be very weak.

 

Carcel remembered her white wrist, which was so thin it could easily be held in one hand.

 

Thinking about it, the time she wore tight clothes her waist was so thin it was only half of his waist.

 

No, Charlotte was generally petite. I wonder how she was holding Theo.

 

‘I should tell her to take care of her meal, too.’

 

Maurice, who didn’t know what to think, offered up more of the things he hadn’t been asked about.

 

But I heard something strange while I was walking around.”

 

“What?”

 

“Other than me, there were people who were looking for people who were about to die.”

 

“….. What ?”

 

Not just in one place, but in a few places as well.

 

Suddenly, a serious expression appeared on Morris’s face.

 

“Maybe someone else is looking for the right person.”
