Chapter 155: If Lei Can Do It

Editor: Sam

Were going to Purgatory Island again!? And at night this time!? Whatre you thinking?! Hans yelled. If this was going to happen, then I shouldnt have told Nico about the Hollows.

Ive seen Hollows at the border of Wester. However, Nico is only going to the north this time. Its a safe area, and if I want to show him Hollows then theres no better place. Prince Albert calmly answered Hans violent exclamation. Based on what Nico heard from me, he came up with the shallow idea that it was alright for him to see them since Ive seen them.

Based on what proof are you saying its safe? Youre probably going to use a barrier box, but barrier boxes arent perfect. The range is limited, and if someone loses their calm and goes out of the barrier then theyll become victim to the Hollow. We cant let the royal family face such danger.

I looked at Hans in admiration. He has never been out of kingdom, so hes never used a barrier box before, but he knows about the dangers. If he was in Frontier, then he would definitely be a skilled hunter.

Liththwe chiwdren are shcared of Howwowsh. (Little children are scared of Hollows) I backed Hans up too. Its not a pleasant thing, and I think theyre scary enough for children to have nightmares and cry at night. No matter how much Nico wants to see them, I dont think its something that he should see at his age.

If you can do it, then Nico can too.

Youre mishthawen. (Youre mistaken) I desperately tried to explain. If a baby sees a Hollow, then they would just blank out. However, the shock may be greater at an age where they understand that the ghost-like Hollows have the appearance of a person or animal.

Im not. If the baby Albans says that she saw them every day, then Nico should see them too.

Hans and I looked at Earl Coulter. He shook his head. He might be opposed to the idea, but he wont stop the Prince. If its like that, then Ill talk to the person himself, Nico.

Lei, I want to see them too. I cant go out of Kingdom like you, Lei. If the Hollows are the origin of Kingdom, then its important to see them.

If the Four Marquises arent adults, then they can leave Kingdom. However, thats impossible for the royal family.

But its been a long time since that sentence was abolished. There shouldnt be any Hollows with a solid appearance since therere no living beings on that island.

Fishhesh, and

Thats right. Fishes that jump to the surface. Stray animals. And perhaps those who want to commit suicide; a painless death is bliss.

Nii-sama quickly picked me up and buried my face in his neck to stop me from talking any further.

If you have to take Prince Nico there, then Gill and I will go too.

Lei two.

I was crushed by Nii-sama.

Gill and I have hunted Hollows before, and we have Rhodolite swords.

It went silent for a moment and Oji-sama looked up.

What are Albans and Lisburn making their heirs do Prince Albert muttered involuntarily. Hans seemed to agree with him this time, but he confirmed, So, youll do it no matter what? Then, he looked at the escorts. Graces was silent and nodded as if he had given up. The escorts have already tried to persuade them.

Fine. But, Leila-sama wont be going, so some escorts will have to remain behind. I would like you to rearrange the escorts so that you can make sure Luke-sama and Gilbert-sama are also safe.

Hans, who didnt think much of the safety of the royal family, is in a sense, a paragon of an Albans guard.

Nii-syama.

No.

Nii-syama.

You cant.

Nii-sama anticipated my request and his reply was cold from the beginning.

Nii-syama, thhe barrier Nii-sama quickly buried my face and took me out of the room so that I couldnt say anymore than that.

Lei, that was dangerous. Whats wrong? Youre always more careful, Nii-sama whispered and Hans was behind us.

Nii-syama, ithsh wiwe Hansh shaysh. (Nii-sama, its like Hans says)

What Hans said?

Nii-sama looked at Hans who raised his eyebrow since he didnt know what was going on.

Bawwier box.

The barrier box?

Ai.

Nii-sama tilted his head in confusion and I nodded.

Peopwe wanth tho run away when thheyre shurprished. They wiww weave thhe barrier shthraighth away. (People want to run away when theyre surprised. They will leave the barrier straight away)

Certainly, the barrier box usually has a range of only three metres. Its wide, and if youre upset youll be out of range.

Nii-sama clenched his hands as if he had remembered something.

And if you move the barrier box itself, then its over.

Thats right. Thats why I should go and keep the box with me.

Lei, even if thats true, Im there.

Lei ish bethther.

Thats true, but

Lei wiww awwaysh be nexth tho ith.

Nii-sama placed his hands on my shoulders like he had given up.

Luke-sama, Hans called Nii-samas name as if he had realised something.

Alright. Lei might be safer in a place where everyone can see her.

Sure, theres less chance that she would be kidnapped that way, but

Gill and I have a barrier box even if its for individual use. What worries me is what has been left behind on the island and which ship we will use

According to Earl Coulter its fine. He hasnt received any reports from the scouts that there are any suspicious people around.

I stared gapingly at Hans and Nii-sama. It appears that they still think that I would be kidnapped again.

You dont have to look like that.

Nii-sama wrapped my cheeks in his hands.

Let Prince Albert show us what he has. It would be nice if he knew how nave he is for thinking that Prince Nico can see them just because you did, Lei.

I think I was hallucinating when I thought that Nii-samas smile was scary.

Thus, we were going to Purgatory Island again in the evening.
