The Villainess is Tired of Everything

Chapter 127:

That evening, Darcy made an offer to the group.

“I have two different magic circles. One is the one you already possess, the one that nullifies all magic and magical tools….”

He continued, explaining to the people who were examining the parchment he had given them.

“The other allows the use of magic stones, bypassing the nullification effects of magical tools.”

The magic circle that nullified magic and magical tools was absolute. No magic could penetrate it, making it untouchable.

No magician had ever modified it.

It was why magicians couldn’t escape from the magical tools that bound them.

But Darcy had done it.

He found a loophole in the seemingly impenetrable magic circle.

“Magic stone bullets are different from regular bullets.”

Darcy pulled a magic stone bullet from his pocket.

“These won’t kill people. Instead, they’ll put them to sleep.”

“….”

“There will be no hindrance to your revenge. The only difference is in how we win.”

Darcy respected their desire for revenge.

These were people who had been oppressed for a long time, who had lost blood, friends, and family.

Asking them to resolve things peacefully would be too cruel.

Even though he knew his suggestion wouldn’t satisfy everyone, he made the proposal.

He didn’t explain further why he was making such a suggestion.

He wasn’t interested in shaking their resolve with his words.

“…Give us time to think.”

The magicians understood the gravity of the situation.

They knew exactly what Darcy was offering them.

“You don’t have to use these bullets on everyone.”

Darcy offered one more point to sway their decision.

The group debated until dawn, deep in thought.

In the end, the majority, by a slim margin of three votes, decided to use the magic stone bullets that Darcy had brought.

After the decision was made, the magicians crushed the magic stones and drew a magic circle around the village to prevent the soldiers from using their magical tools.
