“It’s good to see you’re doing well.”
“Yes.”
Jeron, seeing Sei-an looking as healthy as he did when they parted ways, felt a measure of relief and offered a small smile.
“Surely you didn’t come just to ask after my well-being…”
“Indeed.”
“Is something the matter?”
A moment later, at Sei-an’s question, Jeron erased the smile from his lips and looked at him with a slightly hardened expression.
“It’s about Abli Village.”
“…Did you come for poison, perhaps?”
At Jeron’s subsequent reply, Sei-an’s expression subtly stiffened this time. Abli Village was one of the villages he had stopped at on his way here, after first meeting Jeron.
It was the very village where Jeron had intended to use poison for revenge, fueled by resentment.
“The poison is no longer needed.”
“What?”
At Sei-an’s question, Jeron let out a long sigh and shook his head slightly with a bitter expression.
Then, with a face even more stern than before, he continued speaking.
“…They’re dying.”
“……?”
“The people of Abli Village are dying, one by one.”
“……!”
At Jeron’s final words, Sei-an’s face also rapidly hardened.
