Chapter 438 142 - Shocking reveal (part 3)

"What the hell - is an appropriate question! What the hell is going on?!"

Burushi furrowed her brows and asked, standing up and walking towards Zoemi.

"Private visit."

She immediately cast one of her spells on him too, without actually waiting for the answer.

"...hmm..."

But then frowned when the results that showed up stated that there was nothing wrong with him.

"Burushi. It\'s Xeonith unique shadow."

"...?!"

Zoemi glanced over at her while pointing at the empty space above the table, causing the girl to flinch and step back while hurriedly glancing at the spot.

"What in the world are you saying?!"

She asked, as her face became pale.

"This is the spot that he actually died, isn\'t it? His shadow is still here."

The black-haired boy explained, immensely intrigued.

"Wha... what the hell do you mean?! There is some part of that piece of shit still here?! Can\'t you get rid of it?"

The blond heroine flinched and gasped, instinctively hiding behind Zoemi.

"I mean... I could, but I kind of want to check something. If you don\'t mind I will use a necromancy spell and..."

"EXCUSE ME?! OF COURSE I DO MIND!"

The black-haired boy said while glancing over his shoulder at the pale girl, but she immediately shook her head and scoffed furiously.

"Why would you even suggest bringing that guy back to life?! You found me! You know what he did to me!"

Burushi bit her lips and clenched her fists, grabbing onto Zoemi\'s clothes while muttering in disbelief.

"...I know. But here\'s the thing. I have proof that your favorite Surou was messed with by the mysterious supporter - that being Arisu, by the way - using hexes. I only want to check whether that could have been the case with Xeonith too. My spell will not bring him back to life, it will only reanimate the piece of his consciousness that stayed within his shadow, nothing else. I swear that if he was just a vile piece of shit I will erase any trace of him immediately, but I want to at least make sure first."

"..."

Zoemi explained, causing Burushi to close her mouth and look down, deeply bothered.

"Using this as a chance, I want to finally tell you that I came in contact with Surou..."

"!!!"

The black-haired boy added - which caused the blond girl to straighten her back and stare at him in disbelief.

"Before you say anything, I will let you two meet regardless of your decision about Xeonith\'s shadow... and I didn\'t tell you earlier because I wanted to make sure that it would be possible for you two to meet up safely. Sorry for keeping it a secretary by the way."

He lovered his head apologetically and didn\'t raise it at all, kind of expecting to get smacked.

"This is really confusing... and worrisome - I don\'t like that you said you wanted to make sure that my meeting with Surou was safe. For some reason the context you used made it feel like the mysterious supporter was messing with him more than I thought... ugh..."

Burushi groaned while fidgetting and making a very upset expression.

"...fine... check whatever you want, but I don\'t want to be anywhere near that guy unless he was actually completely brainwashed or something. I don\'t want his ghost, or shadow, or whatever, hanging out around me so you better not lie about erasing him if he really was just that vile."

In the end, Burushi sighed and nodded while leaning on Zoemi and pressing her forehead against his back.

"Thank you."

|Little ones, can you use the necromancy spell on him?|

The black-haired boy nodded back at the blond girl before internally asking his sentinels.

"(Okay!)"

"(Leave it to us, master~!)"

His sentinels cheered out in response, making him smile.

But then a few seconds passed and nothing happened.

Then a full minute...

"(Master... it doesn\'t work on him for some reason...)"

"(...weird, it should work, right? The puppets can use all sort of spells...! Is there something wrong with us...?)"

The sentinels cried out in disappointment when it turned out that they are powerless in regards to reanimating the slowly rotating unique shadow.

"...hmm..."

Zoemi frowned and let out a bothered noise while watching the unique shadow.

His sentinels couldn\'t use the necromancy on it even though Zoemi could easily tell that Xeonith\'s unique shadow was weaker than Ludier\'s.

In the first place, the necromancy was supposed to work on dead bodies and not on shadows - but that meant that the only person capable of actually reanimating a unique shadow was Zoemi himself.

If he wanted answers, he had to use magic...

|Little ones, prepare the ice pack for me, please.|

Since the black-haired boy wanted to be done with Xeonith once and for all, he decided it was worth going through the pain and asked his sentinels in preparation for that outcome.

"(Eh...?)"

"(O-okay...)"

The two of them didn\'t seem excited at all, but at least didn\'t have to try to talk him out of it.

|Alright, now then...|

Zoemi thought and breathed out.

He focused and forced his mana to switch into a death attribute - which alone made him very nauseous. Honestly, the boy dreaded the next step...

"...ghh...!"

With a stinging pain spreading through his body, Zoemi reached out with his shadow and latched onto the unique shadow above the table, stopping it from rotating.

|Alright... wake up. We need to talk.|

The black-haired boy thought and activated the right spell.

"GHHHHHH...!"

"Zoemi?! Ultra...! Ah, no, it will make things worse...!"

Truth be told, even though the wave of pain that tore through the boy\'s body caused him to fold like a switchblade - which made Burushi call out to him in a worried voice and almost cast one of her strongest spells on him before she realized that it would be the opposite of helpful - the amount of mana that drained from him was far below his expectation.

"I\'m... fine..."

Zoemi grumbled and slowly straightened his back with Burushi\'s help.

As he did, he could see for himself whether his spell worked or not.

""

It certainly did - as Xeonith\'s unique shadow stopped hovering over the table and slumped down on it as if he had a corporal body and even shook his head and groaned.

"
