Sayaka's face flushed as she realized that Meili had just sat outside and listened to the whole thing.

Then those ramblings I said when I was alone with him because I was too happy, weren't they...

The girl's worries soon came true, but the force was much softer than she had imagined.

Mary stood up and slightly withdrew her hand, and countless petals around the tent returned to her hand.

The Flower Magician collected all these things, then looked at Sayaka and said:

"You need more practice—how can you just ask your master if he likes you?"

"you should……"

While "teaching" Sayaka, Meili made an OK sign with her hand and put it to her lips.

"Look at him and ask him like this, and you'll get the real answer, understand?"

"oh--!"

Sayaka nodded repeatedly as if she had discovered a new world.

"Master Meili, I understand!"

"Well, it's good that you understand."

"Stop it, Mary!" Ian looked at the Flower Magician helplessly, "Don't teach this weird stuff."

"But you obviously like it." Mary fought back without hesitation.

“He always touches my head.”

"That's not something to talk about at this time."

The man's expression turned serious.

"We still have a lot to do, don't we?"

"For example -"

"Isn't it right to go find the old man and find out what's going on and what's happening in Jerusalem?"

"Ah."

As if Mary had anticipated that Ian would return his attention to the main business, she quickly pointed to another tent in West Village and said:

"so--"

"I've already told them in advance not to disturb you."

"..."

Ian once again lamented the deceptive nature of Mary's expressionless face - she just didn't say anything, but that didn't mean she didn't think anything.

A few minutes later.

Ian took Sayaka and Mary into the tent where the first generation Hassan was.

As soon as they met, this rather special Hassan individual holding a greatsword pretended to be extremely indifferent and asked about "what happened" last night.

"It seems——"

"My trust in you was not misplaced. You have indeed saved our peace."

"It's gratifying, it's gratifying."

"..."

Although he knew that the arrangement of the wedding room last night must have been the old man's intention, Ian did not want to expose his intention.

The reason is also very simple.

Firstly, this would make the original Hassan feel that his arrangement had been seen through, and he might become suspicious. In that case, the subsequent cooperation would obviously become much more troublesome.

Secondly, this would make Sayaka extremely embarrassed. After all, all this was still what she wanted.

Final words——

Then naturally there is no loss for me.

Sayaka's service was excellent, in every sense of the word.

If you still expose it without knowing what's good for you, it would be a bit ungrateful.

"Thank you, old man, for arranging all this for me."

Ian responded very politely.

"I will remember."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere fell into a subtle awkwardness.

Sayaka, whose face was already blushing to the extreme, was the first to break the silence.

"that--"

"Master Shodai, since Master Ian is my savior, can you tell him about this?"

"..."

Sayaka's words surprised Ian somewhat.

He didn't expect that the people of the mountain themselves had secrets that he had never known.

but--

Judging from the tone of voice, I should be able to find out soon.

And this is indeed the case.

At Sayaka's pleading, the first generation Hassan looked at the man in front of him for a long time, and finally nodded.

"Ian."

"Although it may be a bit presumptuous to ask this, we must understand where you and your companion come from. This will determine your future stance with us, the people of the mountain."

"..."

Ian thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth.

"Old man."

"I don't know if you'll believe me if I say this."

"But Merry and I—" the man took the Flower Magician's hand, "we are here to put this world back on track."

"You...should have noticed something unusual, right?"

"We are here precisely to resolve these issues. We have other companions, but we haven't been able to find them yet."

Every word Ian said was true.

He knew that only in this way could he gain the trust of the first generation Hassan to the greatest extent.

And this is indeed the case.

"Is that so?" The First Hassan nodded thoughtfully. "Then it seems our interests are indeed aligned."

"So--"

"I will also tell you what we know."

Having said this, the first generation Hassan took out something like a sheepskin map and spread it in front of everyone.

There were only a few places carved on it in a very crude way.

Although he still didn't understand their intention, Ian knew that this should be the location the mountain people had found after their investigation - this could also explain why Sayaka was able to find a perfect shelter at that time.

"Actually... we have another enemy."

"Another enemy?"

This was also something Ian had never expected.

After all, since he landed, all he had seen were the so-called "British soldiers". Apart from that, there were the Hassan Order, who were the people of the mountain.

"Ah."

The first Hassan nodded.

"As you can see, we shouldn't be guerrillas occupying this desert."

After all, they are people of the mountains, not people of the sand.

Ian quickly understood the deeper meaning of this sentence - someone "took away" the place where the mountain people originally lived, and that was the enemy that the first generation Hassan mentioned.

That being said...

Could it be that the building that was barely visible in the wind and sand before was also brought by these enemies?

"So--"

"Those enemies are..." Ian asked cautiously.

"A group of people claiming to be from an unknown time, with the leader calling himself 'King of Kings, Almighty God'."

"Ah."

The first Hassan gripped the sword in his hand.

"I am just a fool who has the good fortune to survive in a world without me."

"I will take his head—in return for my child who gave his life."

"..."

"You don't seem to have appeared here on your own initiative." Meili mercilessly pointed out the nature of the original Hassan's appearance. "Your presence requires the sacrifice of a tribe member, right?"

"It's simply a lack of strength," said the first Hassan. "If our descendants are strong enough, why would they need to rely on the strength of an old man like me?"

"but--"

"Since you have volunteered to sacrifice your life for your people, I will naturally not care about these things anymore."

"I will lead the people of the mountain back to their original place."

"..."

Ian now completely understood the reasons why the first generation Hassan and this cult appeared.

turn out to be--

The forces in this era are far more complicated than one imagines.

"Well, old man."

Ian brought the conversation back to the present.

"what do you mean……"

"Since we have saved Jingmi—"

The first Hassan drew his sword and walked in front of Ian.

"You are one of us."

"Ian Pendragon—inherit the delusional heartbeat (Zabaniya) and fight for us!"

786. Meili and Sayaka's Harem Alliance / The Delusion of Kokoro's Inheritance (4k)

"Delusional heart sounds (Zabaniya)..."

Ian muttered the name, feeling very unfamiliar.

This is also reasonable - after all, this is the first time the man has heard the name.

"Master, what is this?"

"To be honest, I don't know." The first Hassan admitted his ignorance. "After all, the true owner of the Zabaniya isn't an old man like me, but Hassan, the one who willingly sacrificed himself for the people of the mountain and summoned me here."

"Logically speaking, I shouldn't have entrusted such an important thing to you."

"but--"
