Chapter 42

“…… Thankfully it wasn’t as busy as the farming season when it started. If it was time for active outdoor activities, the west would be done for.”

“Well, I also don’t know the cause, but how do we find a solution…. Hey, tell me what you’ve discovered.”

Viscount Voldewon summoned his subordinate to report to him about the village that had quickly changed into a terrible tragedy.

It was the result of an investigation completed by sending one of his subordinates over to the Grand Duke’s territory for fear he will also catch the sickness.

I can see that he carefully phrased his words before speaking in front of a child like me, but I could understand that it’s an unimaginable tragedy despite that.

‘It’s really terrible.’

It was a disease in which after a short amount of time, blood will ‘explode’ out from all over the body, and the victims will die of excessive blood loss.

It has a greatly contagious nature, people who died in the village were from spread out corners, not very close to each other.

Like a huge red river was formed throughout the village.

From the side, I saw Deleign frowning as he listened.

‘Somehow he’s used to it….’

I felt like this disease was familiar as if I knew about it. Even though I shouldn’t know of such a disease.

I focused and concentrated my mind on the contents of the original book, pressing down my temples, it seemed like something memorable coming to my mind little by little.

『Blood was collected in the whole town, and it was like a lake. It was a sickening sight known by the name of ‘Ruby Lake’.

It was accurate to say that it wasn’t a Ruby lake, but Blood Lake.

“How can there be such a terrible thing….”

Azuela shed tears as she saw the terrible sight. Her teardrops were like those of a saint.』

This…… this was the disease that allowed Azuela to be praised as a Saint.

‘Why is this already here…….?’

Ruby Lake’s disease appeared in the middle of the original story. Even though it wasn’t made by the Grand Duke, it also wasn’t a disease technically. Thinking about it carefully, it was a case of poisoning.
