<Pov Vali>

'Tch, they're always making out in front of me, Lavinia-san is also with that handsome man' I thought when I saw Lavinia who I thought of as my sister blushed when she looked at the man.

'Also that guy looks strong, I should have challenged him earlier'

[Vali, you shouldn't be challenging people to and fro carelessly. otherwise, you will be out of luck even if you have lucifer's blood in your veins]

A voice rang out and warned me.

"Heh...it doesn't matter whether the person has a grudge against me or not, after all, I don't care about their privacy," I replied to the voice.

[It's up to you] Said the voice in a resigned tone.

"You say that… it's a bit embarrassing for the Dragon Emperor to be afraid of creatures lower than him." I said provokingly, but there was no reply from the voice.

'Looks like he's asleep…what a useless warning, you are the White Dragon Emperor, the Vanishing Dragon. Albion' I thought to my partner sitting on the metallic wings on my back.

I looked at the village in front, and went down to check the situation, the result?

It's dark, not a single light is on as if there was a power cut and the residents of this village are asleep to the effects of magic.

'Strange, why are people in the village put to sleep but nothing happens, is this just bait?' I thought about analyzing the situation.

After a while I returned to the group to tell the situation I found this.

<Pov End>

...

I and Natsume are now in the east and have nothing here, only the wilderness.

In front of me right now is just a rather deep ravine, in which there is a flowing river.

"Natsume we have to go back, there's nothing here," I said to Natsume who shyly looked at my face.

"Eh, ah yes! we better get together with the others!" She said while avoiding eye contact with me.

I just sighed, because I knew that my good looks were above an unnatural standard.

And I'm slowly getting used to it.

I got up and headed back to the point where we gathered earlier.

...

Now we meet back to the point we gathered earlier, and apparently, everyone also returned with Vali getting something in the east of the forest.

There was a village, at the foot of the mountain. A small village with no more than a hundred inhabitants.

And here's the oddity, there everyone is put to sleep by magic...and all the electricity goes out and there's no sign of the culprit in the village.

For a moment of thought, I then looked at Lavinia who was looking at Natsume with a look that made Natsume uncomfortable.

"Lavinia, stop glaring at Natsume...and come here I have something important to talk to you about," I said to Lavinia who was consciously looking directly at me.

When I told her to approach me who was walking away from the group she hummed happily as she walked toward me.

After leaving, I immediately spoke with a serious tone.

"Lavi-san, before we check with the village... there's something I want to talk to you about that you might not like my opinion of you," I said which made her confused.

"Me? What's wrong with me to make you talk so serious!?" said Her with a worried tone.

"This is just my speculation, your master might just be playing with you," I said which made Lavinia's eyes widen.

"You must be asking about why I know about your main goal, apart from your boss's mission. You also have another goal which is to find out why your Master who has been taking care of you left you without speaking or leaving a letter... I'm guessing because it's Master you did that on purpose, and maybe you will get bad news about your master tonight and I ask you to be mentally strong before that happens" And I continued, actually I got all that information from Suzaku and Baraqiel.

Suzaku gave her bio, which I don't know from where she got Lavinia's information.

And Baraqiel told the rumors, which he got during the investigation. That Lavinia was an abandoned child where both of her parents had died.

She was found by Glenda who was a magician who happened to be passing by the area where she lived, there Glenda realized that Lavinia had the Sacred Gear Longinus intended to take it but for some reason, she took care of Lavinia instead of taking her Sacred Gear.

Apparently, after thinking for hours before this mission started, I realized that this was still related to Lavinia's Sacred Gear.

After all, her Class Sacred Gear was so dangerous it could even freeze half a continent and potentially kill a god.

Lavinia will be used as a guinea pig for the mage Oz to experiment with whether Two Longinus class Sacred Gears, can be in one body.

I got something from Greece, where the former witch Oz once lived, a trial record with the Sacred Gear.

Where it was written there, they had managed to make two Sacred Gears able to exist in one body without natural birth.

Lavinia became a very valuable vessel, it would be a pity if they just killed her and took her Sacred Gear Longinus.

So they took care of her until she matured then they took her body and Sacred Gear for themselves.

In the note, it was also written that there was a strange image… A black snake and beside the tip was written Ouroboros.

But for that note, I ignore it.

Back to Lavinia again where she showed a worried face and wanted to deny it.

"No way! Glenda's teacher will not throw me like this! No way! no!" She said denying my explanation to her teacher.

"Well, I hope that's wrong...but I just want you to be prepared for the worst and keep your sanity...this is important because the enemy will be after you first," I said, walking away from him.

But the hem of my shirt was held by Lavinia's hand.

"Nee… if perhaps your speculation is correct, will Yuuya-can still support me and protect me when that happens?" She said in a trembling voice.

I knew she must be nervous, what she feared the most was happening to her that she had to prevent.

"Yeah...Lavi calms down, you are my friend...whatever happens to you I will always reach out my hand to protect you, after all, you are also my magic teacher without you, my knowledge of magic wouldn't be until now" I said a little embarrassed at the last part the word I say.

Lavinia's cheeks heat up, I even saw her blush while emitting smoke above her head.

"Eh...well, that's right I'm your teacher too!" She nervously said proudly of her being my teacher.

I just smiled in relief and invited her back to the group to investigate the village in the east.

Staring at the foot of the mountain where there is a small village I feel a strange bad feeling maybe it's just a wild feeling that comes when I'm nervous.
