An Assistant to the Angel of Death
73

Vischa suppressed the aura that Claude was emitting, while looking at Claude seriously. It made Claude stunned as soon as he saw that serious-looking Vischa.

"Daddy didn't do it." Although her father's magic began to weaken but this enormous air pressure was the aura of pressure that Grand Duke's class of nobles used. "Someone out there might be after you because of what you did to uncover the warehouse."

Claude was shocked as soon as Vischa finished his words. The words of Vischa make a lot of sense. Even the person Claude faced back then was a Granduke who ate demon blood as his daily consumption.

But Claude felt he still could not trust Vischa. Nor could he blame Vischa entirely because it seemed that the person's hidden purpose was for Claude to blame everything on Vischa. He knows very well a child often blames his own parents. Including children during puberty.

But unlike Claude who has received the ability he received from Krud, his brain is stable compared to people his age.

"I still don't believe in Father's reasoning, but instead I have to invent how Carpel was exposed to that magic."

"I thought you wouldn't believe Dad's words. I'll tell you briefly because I still have a lot of work to do.

After Charly gave it to my dad he told me to give it to you, and I just got home from border issues. Dad told the messenger to ask you to come home

Maybe because I was exhausted, I fell asleep afterwards. And did not expect that Carpel was exposed to the magic contained in the letter. I haven't told all the family members including Lady Gracia you'd better not tell anyone."

In his head Claude thought "Charly???"

"If Charly gave the Grimoire away, why would you say that Charly and Charmy shouldn't know."

Vischa suddenly fell silent. Either he was thinking of finding an excuse or because there was something else.

"Dad already sealed the letter in that fake Grimoire. That grimoire is a copy of Father's magic spell and the rest is your Mother's. Before he died he burned his Grimoire lucky some pages can still be saved."

"So.."

"Actually Charly said the same thing not to tell Charmy and Charly. He said that if you talk like that maybe you'll believe me and copy the book. Because I know you still don't trust me after what happened before."

Vischa lowered her pressure Aura, her eyes staring expectantly at Claude.

"Then why did you seal the letter and give it to me?"

"Dad just wanted to see what was said by you was true, your magic is magic that can erase other magic."

Claude was surprised. Hasn't his magic been weakened by it all this time. Claude was stunned by Vischa's unexpected words.

"What do you mean, dad?"

"Be aware that father magic can only be done by a great witch like your mother. I didn't think you were a boy but could inherit your mother's magic."

Vischa moved from her chair and walked to the neatly lined bookshelf, Claude watching Vischa closely. What Vischa will do.

Not expecting it turns out Vischa did not take a book but took a key made of silver.

"What are you gonna do?"

Vischa returned to her workplace but not to sit back in her chair but to say the magic words slowly, until it was not clearly heard by Claude.

But suddenly the painting hanging behind the workbench visca opened slowly. Now it is clear that there is a safe behind the painting.

Vischa also put the silver key in the keyhole of the safe. Claude did not understand if it was a secret item why the safe was not locked again with a difficult code or with his seal magic.

The safe was open vischapun take an item that looks very old. Looks like Vischa has been saving it for quite a while. Vischa presents two very old books with the other one with a burn trail.

"This..?"

"This is my father's Grimoire and this burning one belongs to your mother. I think you can have your mother's, but for my father's Grimoire. I want you to take the magic test a month ahead, because if you don't have a bit of father's magic talent, it's likely that the spell inside will be useless."

Vischa gives the Grimoire to Claude while for the other Grimoire he keeps it with old stuff that Vischa keeps in the safe.

Vischa locked the safe and closed the painting with a closing spell.

"You used the usual opening and closing magic.why do you have to slowly parse like that?"

"You know very well basic magic. I'll give you this key."

"What about dad?"

"Of course I have the other key, but remember right now you still can't use it before you go to the magic test."

"Fine, then I'll leave Dad's room."

Claude leaves Vischa from his room. His heart became half-doubtful towards Vischa, seeing Vischa deliberately sealing the letter in the fake Grimoire. Here another Vischa wants to give his mother's Grimoire voluntarily.

The questions in his brain were still too many, but Claude could not ask Vischa entirely he had to figure out the origin of the letter.

Claude returned to his room, as if he had been talking to Vischa long enough that Gabriel who had just gone to the upper world had now returned to Claude's room.

"You're done sooner it turns out."

"I've just arrived, just picked up a book about the king of Axias like you said."

"Hows it? Have you read it?"

"You yourself how? you were crying like that I was worried something happened to you."

"I cried because I thought I wrote one book for two days in vain. It turned out that the man had inscribed some of his and my mother's spells on the Grimoire a copy of it."

"Then what other grimoire did you bring?"

"This is my mother's Grimoire. I could feel the warmth even a little bit, but all the backyard burned only the front spell left. After I see. His spell was indeed exactly the same as the one written by the fake Grimoire book."
