Trash of the Count's Family

Cale felt the need to organize the information about the situation after seeing the desperate look on Jack's face.

“Aaaaaaaaah!”

They heard another terrible scream.

Cale flinched at the scream but still started to speak.

“Dead mana and sacrificing people. What do you mean by that?”

They had already located all four of the dead mana storage facilities through the map Cale memorized at the Southern Alchemists’ Tower.

Mary and the Dark Elves were already heading toward them.

Most importantly, the dead mana storage facility for the Northern Alchemists’ Tower was not located inside the tower but at a remote location.

But now Jack was saying that the dead mana storage facility was at the center of the Northern Alchemists’ Tower?

It did not make any sense.

He was also saying that they were using people as power sources.

Cale started to frown.

Black despair was what fueled the golems to move.

The black despair was even more terrible than dead mana.

Squeeze.

Cale squeezed Jack’s arm.

Jack finally calmed down a bit and answered Cale’s question.

“You’ll understand if you take a look at the Northern Alchemists’ Tower.”

Cale immediately started to speak.

“Raon.” I got it!

Cale could feel Saint Jack, Beacrox, and Clopeh floating up with him.

The knights and mages who had been around Saint Jack looked up as if they were trying to protect them.

“Mm.”

However, Cale had no chance to look down once he was in the air.

He looked forward.

“The tower opened?”

In front of him. Beyond the forest.

He could see the appearance of the Northern Alchemists’ Tower.

Normally, it was supposed to be a regular tower similar to the Southern Alchemists’ Tower.

But it looked different than normal.

"As you can see, the Alchemists’ Tower looks different now.”

The Northern Alchemists’ Tower had split into four parts, creating paths to the North, South, East, and West.

The central area was empty.

Jack continued to speak.

“The ground suddenly started to shake after the black mages and mages teleported over.”

They heard the sound of a large mechanical device moving as the ground shook.

After that, the Northern Tower split into four parts as if it was a pie and paths in the shape of a cross appeared, leaving a large circle in the middle.

“You need to go a bit closer to see it better.”

Jack bit down on his lips.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

Golems were coming out of the newly created paths.

The golems that had already entered the forest were in a formation heading south.

They were heading toward the residential areas and the capital.

“That pit in the middle was filled with dead mana. Dead mana shot out and filled that pit.”

Cale listened to Jack’s description before asking him a question.

“Then what about the people?”

“…Allies.”

Beacrox started to speak.

“People from our side?”

Jack shook his head.

“No. They are the enemy’s allies.”

“Ho.”

Beacrox let out a gasp.

“You're saying that the enemies are sacrificing their own people to create the dead mana?”

“…That is correct.”

Pain was visible on Jack’s face.

“The enemies started to throw their soldiers into the pit one by one once those paths were created. We wanted to stop them, but there were too many of them.”

Jack chose to retreat first.

It was because he didn't want their soldiers to get captured and thrown into the pit as well.

He didn’t think it was the wrong decision. However, he was someone who served the Sun God, a Saint, and someone who might end up in an even higher position.

That was why he could not help but be angry as he watched the enemy soldiers being thrown into that black lake of dead mana.

Dying that way was different than dying in battle.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

They heard another scream.

Jack started to frown.

It was at that moment.

“Huh?”

He stumbled forward.

Cale had pushed Jack to the back.

“Let’s go right away.”

Cale and Beacrox made eye contact. Beacrox looked toward Jack and pointed at his back.

“Please get on.”

“Excuse me?”

“I will carry you there.”
