◆ Dark Knight Croki
What kind of situation is this?
There's Raige right in front of me.
I'm sure I look stupid because of my sudden appearance.
The Light Warrior and the Dark Knight himself have joined together.
Don't just forget it.
"Wow!!!
There was an unexpected rush.
"Are you Cornez?
Reggie laughs with an unbelievable smile.
And then you notice a discomfort.
What? Something's wrong.
"Nh, what? Is there something on my face?
Reggie said with a funny face because she didn't say anything.
"Um, don't you recognize your face?
I don't know.
Reggie says it's a little harsh.
I'm sure of that word.
I couldn't remember my face--!!!!!!!
Speaking of which, I feel like I didn't show my face properly.
I saved your life, but I can't do anything.
"What are you doing crawling all of a sudden?
I hear Raige say strangely.
I wonder if the man's face is okay for Rage.
Well, I didn't want you to remember anything at all, so there's no problem.
Rather, it should be convenient for you to treat me as someone who doesn't exist.
Yeah, that's why I don't care.
"No! No! Nothing! No, really! It's nothing!!
I say with all my strength.
"Really? That's weird."
Rage leans his neck.
I'm so sorry!!
More than that, why is Raige here?
I realize that when I think about it.
Apparently, Reggie and the others realized that Ainoe was a monster.
That way Ainoe will be finished.
And if Raige and the others were here, it would be difficult to get in touch. We're going to evacuate here in a hurry.
"I just felt a little sick! Please give this to Ainoe!!
I pushed the bouquet against Rage and forced her to smile.
Maybe my face was pulled. Reggie looks at herself in surprise. But it doesn't matter anymore.
"Whoa? Whoa? Okay."
Rage nods when he receives the bouquet.
Then he hurried back the way he came and left.
◆ Sword Maiden Shirone
In front of me is a delicious cheesecake and a nice fragrant tea.
"Wow, it looks delicious. That's Sahoko!!
I admire Sahoko.
"Hehe, thank you, Mr. Shirone."
"And this tea is Menti?
"Yes, I like Shirone's childhood tea."
Sahoko-san was right. Menti said that Croki drank a lot with Nargol.
I just don't know if I really like this. I may be drinking this because there is nothing else.
I think I'll find a cup of tea that Croki likes.
We're back, guys.
Reggie will come back when you say that.
"Welcome home, Reggie. What was he like?
I ask Reiji. [M]
Reggie must have responded to Mr. Einoye's visit.
"It's hard to answer what he looks like. But there was something weird about him."
Reiji answers with a serious face.
I tilt my neck when I see it. It is unusual for Reiji to look like this. [M]
Reiji always has a spare face. [M]
No matter how hard it is, Reggie is the one who gets over it. [M] I wonder what happened.
"Feeling weird? I'm curious."
Chiyuki asks Reiji.
"I don't know. I just can't stop shaking when I see him."
That's how Reiji gives out his right hand. I was trembling a little.
"What's wrong, Mr. Reggie? It's like you're scared."
Lino says worried.
Scared? You think I'm scared?
Reiji looks at his right hand with an incredible expression. [M]
I can't believe it either. I'm looking at Reiji with a look like Chiyuki and Sahoko, Lino and Nao are unbelievable.
Above all, Reiji himself seems unbelievable.
"I can't believe you're scared, Reggie. I wonder who that visitor is.
Reiji shakes his head. [M]
"I don't know, Chiyuki. He looked like he didn't care where he was."
A little heavy air can get in.
"Ahahah, what's going on? It's just my fault!!
Mood maker Nao-chan makes a bright voice.
"Well, maybe it's because of your mind... Rather, Reggie, what flowers do you have in your right hand?
Chiyuki looks at the flowers that Reiji has. [M]
Oh, this is it.
That way, we'll have a round of flowers in front of us.
"Beautiful flowers, Ray."
Sahoko looks at the flowers and says.
The flowers are adorable in pale purple.
"Flowers brought by the guy who visited Ainoe. I only got one round when I gave Ainoe the bouquet. Chiyuki, don't you remember the smell of these flowers?
Reiji will give Chiyuki flowers. [M]
Chiyuki smells flowers.
"Is this Menti?
"Oh, yeah. It must be Menti because of the fragrance."
Reggie, everyone is surprised at your words. [M]
I've seen Menti make tea, but I've never seen a real flower before.
"What? Isn't Menti the flower that blooms in Nargol?
"Lino's right. I'm sure Menti is the flower of Nargol."
Reno and Nao-chan are right. Menti is the flower of Nargol.
"Mr. Shirone, did the man who brought the flower name Senator Cornez?
Nod at Chiyuki's words.
"Cornez brought the flowers... I'm sure Lord Cornez has something to do with the Devil King worshippers."
Lord Decius nodded.
"Oh, and then he seemed to know me. Well, I'm a celebrity, so I might as well know."
Reiji says with a sharp face. [M]
You probably remember using Cornez.
Reggie, you're not the only one with a face like this.
"Well, then, it is possible to tell Lord Cornez that we are suspicious of Einoye."
"Sir De Kius is right. Maybe we should hurry up and check on Cornez. Once we've eaten this, we'll head to the Cornez Mansion."
Everyone nods at Chiyuki's words.
◆ Dancer Shenna
Grasp the sword from the Dark Knight earlier and hide a little further to see the theater.
Then check the surroundings from time to time.
My body trembles when I wonder if someone who made Marcus look like that might attack me.
If you pull out the sword a little, you can see the black sword. I felt like I saw a black flame from the black sword.
Definitely a magical weapon.
It seems that this sword was made by the Dark Knight.
The Dark Knight is amazing at his sword skills, but he can also make magical weapons.
I remember what happened in the morning.
The Dark Knight waves his wooden sword. It seems that the Dark Knight trains his sword every day.
The sword was swinging very slowly. It takes time to swing the sword once.
Keep doing that many times.
I tried to imitate it, but I sweated just once.
The Dark Knight said it was because he used muscles he didn't normally use.
Leaving me tired, the Dark Knight waves his sword to check his movements one by one.
The movement was beautiful.
The Goddess of Moonlight was also imitating beside her, but this one was scratchy.
That dark knight is undoubtedly strong. And you don't have to be afraid of anything because you're going to back me up.
I see the theater when I put my sword back.
Then the Dark Knight comes back alone.
Something is wrong.
"Um, what's wrong?
When I hear it, the Dark Knight shakes his head.
"I kind of relaxed... And I'm sorry, Shenna. I can't meet Ainoe. The brave men are watching."
Dark Knight bows his head to me.
"What? Really?
"Yeah, but I don't know how we got to Ainoe."
Dark Knight thinks.
Why are the heroes on Ainoe's sister...? No, wait, maybe the troupe investigated the whistle I gave my brother.
Last time I broke up with my brother, he said he was working on the case with a brave man.
I tell the dark knight about it.
I see, the whistle is for my brother.
"Yes, I think that's where the troupe got under investigation."
I see. But now you can't get close to the troupe... I wonder if I can get some information on Reggie and the others. "
Dark Knights are troubled.
I think about it too.
My brother said he would investigate with the brave men. Perhaps that theater has my brother Dekius.
Reminds me of Marcus. There's a very dangerous man behind Ainoe's sister.
Could it harm my brother?
If so, we must do something about it.
Looks like we got a call.
It was when I was thinking about my brother.
Dark Knight speaks up.
"You know what? What's wrong?
But the Dark Knight answers nothing.
Looks like you're having a conversation with someone who's not here.
"Sorry, Shenna. I'm ready to go. Could you come back first? Tell Kuna I'm going to the labyrinth to see Runfeld."
The Dark Knight left me alone and went somewhere in a hurry.
◆
This is heaven.
I have plenty of delicious food.
It is very different from the western desert where it was born and raised.
Thank you, Chief, for calling me here.
Walk through the mansion.
The children with hidden eyes are turning around joyfully.
I'm glad to see it.
I love children. Just watching makes me feel happy.
The children were walking at night when the sandman brought them in.
Sandman became a believer in the God of Sleep, the son of the God of Death I serve.
Sand men scatter powder called "sand" into the city and make people have fun dreams.
However, if you keep using the "sand", you will eventually not wake up from sleep and become a resident of your dream country.
And eventually he will be the family of the God of Sleep.
Isn't that a very pleasant story?
I'm hungry too.
All the children are blindfolded because they don't have to open their eyes.
I look at a child who plays with pleasure.
Is it because the kids are having fun? Glowing butterflies are appearing and turning around with pleasure.
Oh?
I'll find out there.
A girl is walking away from the children's circle.
A beautiful girl with silver hair.
But he's not hiding his eyes.
Wait for me.
I will retain the child.
The girl looks back.
"What is it?"
He seems to be in a very bad mood.
"Why are you opening your eyes? You're a bad boy. You must keep your eyes shut. [M] Let's have some fun dreams with everyone."
I am referring to the children who are having fun.
"Kuna only dreams of fun when she's with Croki. I don't sleep here."
I wonder what the girl said.
That's funny. I don't think any of the kids I brought in had silver-haired kids.
I realize a lot of trouble.
"Intruder! Come on, everybody!!
I'll call my people.
"What's wrong!!
My friends are gathering.
"Hmm! I don't have time for you guys. Kuna's going first."
Glowing butterflies gather around the girl.
And when you cover your body, the girl disappears.
It was as if the girl earlier had been a phantom.
But if it isn't, it's tough.
"Oh, my God! Everybody find the intruder!!
◆ The God of Sleep and Dream Zando
The dark underground altar is dedicated to the Father, the god of death.
I feel like I haven't seen my father in a long time before his body collapsed.
When I look back, I see someone lying flat in front of me. [M]
You're ugly. But I can use it.
Surely his current name was Cornez.
Cornez seems to be quite high among humans. It doesn't matter to me, who is a tribe of gods.
Atlanakua doesn't know who this Cornez is.
Because Atlanakua and I didn't get along very well.
That's why I didn't tell him. [M]
"Quite a splendid altar. Looks like you're making a fortune.
"Yes, everything is Zando-sama's power. Thank you for bringing us here, the desert people."
Cornez lowers his head to me again. [M]
"By the way, Mr. Zand. What can I do for you today?
"Ah, there's a kid in the neighborhood who wants to get some. I'm here to see what's going on."
"Isn't that right? You're a lucky girl to be loved by a sleeping god. I'm sure you'll have a good dream."
Cornez is right. You should be lucky because I love you. [M]
I am the god of sleep. I am the leader of the land of dreams.
It is my charm to have a good dream. [M]
The goddess will surely be delighted.
And my goddess is in the castle of the Dark Knight. [M]
The question is how to get the goddess.
It seems that the silver goddess is quite strong, if not as strong as the Dark Knight. I won't win if I fight from the front. [M]
We have to do something about it. Anything good?
Until now, I've only dealt with weak people. [M] I kept myself in a safe place as much as possible.
But I want the silver goddess's neck.
I want to cut off the goddess's neck.
This is the first time this has happened. I may have fallen in love.
This is a great opportunity when the goddess is here.
That was when I was thinking about it.
Cornez's men are entering the room with this altar.
My men slap their ears as they approach Cornez.
"Are you such an idiot?! Are you sure you saw it?!!
Cornez shouted.
"What's going on?
"Dear Xando, My men say there was an intruder, apparently. I don't think that's possible, but I'll take a look."
Cornez lowered his head and left.
Think after Cornez leaves.
An intruder? Is that stupid?
This mansion has boundaries. It should be impossible to get in without anyone noticing.
They deal with people who disappear at the entrance as well.
What the hell is going on?
A butterfly shines in front of you when you are worried.
Again, I've never seen this butterfly before.
Not even one bug should be in this basement. What the hell is going on?
Looking closely, there are many white glowing butterflies flying in the room.
"What?! What the hell is going on?!!
I look around. [M]
And it was when I looked behind.
There stood a goddess with a great scythe.
◆ Black-haired Sage Chiyuki
The Republic of Ariadia is a fan-shaped country around the mouth of the Kish River.
There are three walls, and on the west side of its second wall is the Capillino district.
This Capilino district is a little hilly and sunny.
As a result, the higher-income people began to own mansions throughout the district.
There are me, Reggie, Nao, Lino, and Dekius in this Capilino district.
By the way, there are no Shirone and Sahoko. I'm leaving a message to keep an eye on Ainoe.
"Is that the Cornez Mansion? It's a pretty big house."
I look at Cornez's mansion a little further away and say. Despite the high real estate in this district, Senator Cornez's mansion is quite large.
There are many people with weapons in the Cornez Mansion.
It is not uncommon for senators and others to have private soldiers for escorts, but it seems that there are a few too many.
Isn't it hard for citizens to go to petitions because they're so obscure?
Members of the Senate are equivalent to nobility in other countries.
It is normal for a noble house to be open to citizens as much as possible. It is also incumbent upon society to reflect the opinions of citizens who come to complain.
However, the Cornez Mansion is tightly closed.
Perhaps that kind of thing is tarnishing Congressman Cornez's reputation.
And more than that, Cornez Mansion has something to worry about.
His mansion has strong boundaries. I wonder if he's still doing something terrible.
"That's right, Lord Chiyuki. It's a mystery how Lord Cornez got so many mansions."
My question is answered by Dekius.
"Mystery? What do you mean?
Nao asks Dekius.
"House Cornez is a famous Ariadian house, but that was a long time ago. Cornez was on the verge of falling into debt until three years ago. And suddenly the wings got better."
"Suddenly the wings got better? I doubt it."
Reiji looks sharp. [M]
"Yes, they say they made money selling 'sand' on everything."
"Sand?
Reno is right. I don't know what it means to sell sand and make money.
"'Sand' refers to powder. That's what they call it because it's like sand."
Dekius explains.
Sand hey. What kind of medicine is that? Lord Decius? "
"It's a sleeping pill, Lord Chiyuki. With that medicine, you can have a good dream."
Having heard the explanation, we frown.
"It's kind of obviously suspicious..."
Right, Nao-chan.
Nao and Reno are right. Too suspicious. Obviously too suspicious. Isn't that "sand" a drug?
"Lord Decius. Is the" sand "harmless to the human body?
"Yes, I was curious, so I got the 'sand' and asked the priest of Fanacare to look into it, but all I could figure out was that it was a powerful magic medicine. But some of those who use the sand don't wake up anymore."
"Obviously not dangerous! Why aren't you in control?!
I can barely scream.
"The main area where the 'sand' comes out is outside the city. It is mainly used by non-citizens. Citizens seem to be using it, but the damage has not yet been reported. The Senate won't move if the citizens aren't hurt."
I have a headache.
What if this town isn't a citizen?
So, is it Cornez that supplies that 'sand'?
"Yes, Hero. Thank you so much. It seems that" Sand Man ", a seller of" Sand ", is entering and leaving the Cornez Mansion...."
Dekius explains "The Sand Man."
A man who sells "sand" in a bag. Moreover, the "Sandman" is suspected of kidnapping children.
Recently, there have been rumors that the "Sandman" will arrive if I don't sleep early at night.
The "Sandman" enters and leaves the Cornez Mansion.
Evidence is available, but there is no harm done to citizens, and since the opponent is a Senator, nothing can be done.
Maybe Dekius is also itchy.
Still, "sand" and "sand man". Maybe you should check that too.
"Mr. Chiyuki. Something's bothering me at Cornez Mansion."
Nao was right.
I can hear screams coming from the Cornez Mansion.
"We have to go."
Reggie moves forward.
"Yes, Reggie. Sir DeKius, if this isn't a forced investigation, can it be conducted arbitrarily? You don't mind if I ask Senator Cornez any questions, do you?
I listen as I walk behind Raige.
"Yes, wise man. If it's not compulsory, there's no problem."
I nod.
Then we go to Cornez Mansion.
◆ Silver Witch Coona
"It hurts... It hurts... Master Kuna, please stop..."
An ugly six-eyed mouse moaning as she stepped on it.
But now it's not a rat, it's a maggot. Somehow, I cut off all his limbs.
Maggots say something, but they don't stop stepping.
This maggot seems to be the end of the tribe, but I could easily defeat it by poking it from behind.
It's not Croki, so if you hit it by surprise, you can easily defeat it and it's obvious.
"Key key and May flies. Shut up a little bit."
Put pressure on your feet.
The maggots scream even more. I really have ear problems.
This is not the only one. I don't want to go mad if I don't match Wolverd's painful eyes.
"I told you everything! So forgive me!!
Maggots are crying.
I am certainly tired of stepping on it. Let's stop stepping on this.
"Well, that's good. I'm going to stop you."
When Kuna says so, the maggots smile lowly.
Well then, let me cut your neck off.
Kuna shook up the scythe.
"Why?! You forgive me!!
"Yeah? I didn't say I'd forgive you. You're going to be like this. You'll be delighted."
Remove the dried neck from space.
The heads of those who were once Augustas were dried. This dried neck is alive and will teach Kuna many things.
This is a secret trick taught by the great witch of the swamp, who lives west of Wizard King Castle.
Let's do the same for this maggot.
I'm looking forward to getting the head of the tribe for the first time.
"Hey! Dry your neck! You can't just be happy with your neck! How could you do such a terrible thing!!
Maggots cry, but they don't have ears to hear.
This maggot should be thanked because it helps Kuna.
Come on, that's enough.
Shake down the scythe and cut off the neck.
Well, next up are the brave ones.
Looks up while stepping on a quiet maggot.
