Superficial motive

Mizeya: - Library, library, there must be some record of the Soul Rule Expansion.

Eliza: - Hello Mizeya! Where to in such a hurry?

Mizeya: - I'm going to the library right now, are you?

Eliza: - Since I'm the supervisor of the library, my footsteps lead me there, let's go together then.

Mizeya: - With pleasure.

It's so embarrassing now, especially after what I've seen, I hope she's not as curious as my precious sister. Mizeya thought to himself.

Eliza: - We have arrived, so what book are you interested in?

She's hit-and-miss, so if fate brought her that way, I hope she can help a little.

Mizeya: - I don't know, have you ever heard of a certain Soul Rule Expansion?

In this world, there are 2 types of basic power systems, fighting with other souls, Soul Holders, and fighting with my Soul, Aura Holders, they fight entirely by strengthening their souls, which is why Soul Holders become stronger, more easily, because they are not only fighting their Souls.

Becoming a Soul Holder is quite luck-based, to put it more precisely, there is a 50-50% chance that someone will become a Soul Holder and they must reach the age of 18 because then their own Aura will develop to the level of appropriate acceptance.

Eliza: - That is a high-ranking ability of Soul Holders, why do you care?

For Soul Holders? But I'm not even that, Gertz... But what did you plan to do with this? Mizeya thought to himself.

Mizeya: - I'm curious about the Soul Holders.

The girl comes next to me and nudges my shoulder.

Eliza: - Look, don't you want to be a Soul Holder?

Mizeya: - Something, then do you think there is a book here that writes about that ability?

Eliza: - Of course it is, look for it in the warehouse, it's in the back on the highest shelves.

I go back to the warehouse, and with the help of a rather worn wooden ladder, I take down a couple of books with the word soul on the cover.

I'll take the book forward, then show it to Eliza and let her continue.

Mizeya: - That will be it then.

Eliza: - Take it easy, have a nice day, I hope to see you again.

Mizeya: - You too.

I hope we will meet again. Why, what would happen?

That painful smile does not let the girl rest.

I went back to Eliza.

Eliza: - Are you looking for another book?

Mizeya: - You are coming with me now.

I took her hand and led her straight to my room.

Eliza: - Why did you bring me here now?

I closed the door.

Mizeya: - Now you tell me what bothers you, I can see it in you.

Eliza: - What do you see in me?

Mizeya: - The endless sadness and helplessness.

She put her arms around my neck and started crying.

Eliza: - I didn't want to, but he forced me to.

I grabbed the top of her head with one hand and held her close to my chest.

Mizeya: - It's okay, tell me what happened.

Eliza told me that if she doesn't become Prince Hizaki's sexual serves, then her family will be sold as slaves, after hearing this, she couldn't do anything but agree to this disgusting and completely immoral request, which is completely objectionable, I'm going to break this, myself, completely alone.

An hour had already passed, but the girl was still crying only for the mouse.

Mizeya: - It will be enough now, everything will be fine, calm down.

Eliza: - Are you sure?

Mizeya: - Trust me, but I'll arrange something now.

I'll make sure that this never happens again, it might be a lot of requests from the king, but at least he can do something about it, I hope it won't be too many requests together with the others...

I knock on the king's door.

Naofuda: - You can come in.

I enter the door, but as I look at the king, he is completely mesmerized by Margaret, just looking out the window aimlessly.

Mizeya: - Where did the woman go?

Naofuda: - She is getting ready in her room, tonight we are having a small celebration for her arrival.

Mizeya: - I understand, my King!

Now or never, I have to report this, otherwise, I can't get rid of that worm from Eliza.

Naofuda: - Tell me, boy.

Mizeya: - It would be about Hizaki.

Naofuda: - What did that bastard do again?

Mizeya: - You know the supervisor of the library, right?

Naofuda: - Yes, I know her, what about her?

Mizeya: - He threatened the girl's family to sell her into slavery if she did not satisfy his sexual desires regularly.

Naofuda: - Wait a minute.

The king leaves the room, and his reaction is completely transparent, he is looking for a certain person in his nervousness.

The entire castle was filled with the roar of one name.

Naofuda: - HIZAKI!

The prince rushes to the entrance, but the drops of sweat were visible on his forehead, so about the knight training so hastily...

Hizaki: - Dad, is something wrong?

Naofuda: - Come up immediately, I need to talk to you.

The terrified boy opens the door.

Hizaki: - Why did you call me? My father.

In anger, the king almost broke one of the cupboard shelves.

Naofuda: - Is that what I taught you? You are a shameless child.

Hizaki: - What are you talking about, Father?

Naofuda: - How were you able to take advantage of a helpless, unfortunate librarian girl?

Hizaki: - From who...m?

Mizeya was standing right next to him, and from this, he deduced almost immediately who exactly was the one who threw him to the king, just as Mizeya had planned.

Hizaki: - Was that you?

Mizeya: - Me? Don't joke my prince.

I answered the prince with a small smile on my face, who noticed this, and then ran straight out of the conversation.

Hizaki: - I noted this, take good care of yourself.

Naofuda: - Stop!

But the prince did not stop, he ran straight out of the castle.

Mizeya: - Leave it, my king, now he is angry with his father.

Naofuda: - I hope you're right, but someone needs to teach him good manners.

As I feel the steps of my feet that are becoming full of life, I hurry straight to the library, but Eliza is not there, instead, another girl is floating, FLOATING?

Mizeya: - Abigail?

Abigail: - So you get to know me, boy.

Mizeya: - How the hell would I not recognize you, there isn't another elf girl floating in the air, but what are you doing here anyway?

Abigail: - That's quite a long story, I was just wondering where you were.

Mizeya: - Where was I?

According to them, she's been watching me for a long time, but then that boy, Abigail's companion, the hero, must be nearby too!

Abigail: - You didn't hear anything.

The girl suddenly passed me at the speed of light and then disappeared.

Mizeya: - Now what was that?
