Chapter Eight

Inside a dim room, the gathered people sat on their knees breathing face-to-face.

The light of the flickering lamp in the center of this windowless room was unreliable. If someone were to sigh, it would readily abandon its job for certain.

“… Everyone is gathered here, huh.”

Ten people were gathered in all. Amongst them, an elderly man who looked to have seniority confirmed this while looking around slowly.

Milifaire watched this from a place that was a little ways apart from the circle.

It was a first experience for Milifaire to attend a meeting where the organization’s managers gathered like this. Normally, the matters decided upon at this meeting came down to Milifaire at another meeting. Important decisions were made before she knew them. But this time was different.

“Still, the numbers have been reduced quite a lot.”

Someone muttered this quietly. There was no need to ask what they meant.

The other day, commencing from a corner of the royal palace, the names of members of the anti-saint faction was posted throughout town. The moment they realized they’d been had was already too late. The organization collapsed all too easily and quickly. Those who were caught and those who gave themselves up followed one after another, and a miserable situation descended on the organization. Also, the morale that had risen extremely high was brought low. People, who had lost their nerves thinking there was no way to attack the royal palace in this state, appeared and those who left the organization continued to increase every day.

Who exactly was it that passed information to the royal palace.

For Milifaire, she didn’t know what to do with her anger.

They had tasted a hardship due to betrayal once before. It was during the plan to attack the saint.

Milifaire had thought that plan was close to perfect. A man, serving as one of the saint’s bodyguard, had come to their side. Wasn’t his name Neisan? He too was also made to experience wandering between the boundary of life and death due to the past saint. She didn’t know how he was able to get into the pocket of the saint but, thanks to that, the information they obtained was remarkably better and they were even able to obtain the absolute secret information about her traveling outside incognito.

The place the saint had gone to was the orphanage where she was born and raised. At first, they planned to attack the orphanage where the children were – Milifaire shuddered when she heard that later – but because the saint moved to a graveyard they quickly altered their plans accordingly. They used one of their young members well, even used the grave keeper, and reached the point where they were one step away from being able to assassinate the saint. That plan, where everything had gone so well due to the activity of the anti-saint faction, would probably never happen again in the future.

However, that plan of attack, the success right before their eyes, all turned to nothing.

They were betrayed by the man
