Chapter 84 

The people showed less interest in me than I had expected.

Their attention was focused on Eiren, whom they recognized. They seemed to regard me as merely one of Eiren’s associates.

“What’s going on, Eiren? Ethan is here too, I see.”

Eiren, standing before them, bowed his head respectfully.

“I’ve come to take you with me.”

“…Even if we say we don’t want to go.”

“I understand that you have memories tied to this place, but finding a new home is also a viable option. You know that staying here will only lead to death.”

It was clear that this wasn’t the first time Eiren had tried to persuade them to leave.

However, their responses were lukewarm.

“What’s the point of surviving?”

Eiren struggled to respond to that and only managed to speak after a pause.@@novelbin@@

“You’ll find a reason.”

“You’re still searching for your father, aren’t you, Eiren? You must have an idea of what might have happened to Kapu by now.”

Eiren’s expression tightened with anguish as he clenched his fists.

“The more we struggle, the deeper we sink into the mire. You know what the future holds for magicians. We just want to end things in the place we’ve lived.”

Eiren, who had been speaking naturally, fell silent. His expression became pained as he found himself unable to argue against their words.

As I watched these weary people, I felt an unexpected sense of kinship.
