Don't forget me.

Do not turn away from me.

I am the cause of man itself, the resentment that embodies it.

It pollutes the earth, pollutes the atmosphere, and forms all vices. That's who I am, and it's the people who do this to me.

Don't be frightened. Don't tremble. My deeds are still the right thing to do...

"... hmm? Mother, did you say anything?

It was on January 1st that Misha Blanche, a young shopkeeper at the tool store Apple Basket, heard the voice.

Misha, who lined up the reagents she couldn't get rid of at the end of the year cleaning and wondered if she could somehow use this effectively, raised her face to a voice that sounded from the bottom of the ground.

"Huh? Yeah, you didn't say anything, did you?

"Really?"

Looks like Misha was the only one who heard the voice.

In the living room leading to the workshop, Alisha, who sat in a rocking chair, was finally rowing the boat, and she replied that she had slept in her daughter's inquiry.

"Are you tired...... yeah, forget it. It's late at night, and my master said it's useless, and I'll throw this away already. It's not a good idea to drag failure to a new year."

Shiatsu blinking Misha threw a rainbow potion, a fluorescent potion, and a gelo potion into the flush, taking off her forehead and entering the living room.

"Mother, go to sleep now. If you sleep here, you'll catch a cold."

"Right. Ugh."

Active short haired daughter. A mother with long hair with a loose face.

Parents and children with chestnut hair took their hands amicably like sisters and headed to the bedroom.

The magic stone lights are also turned off and soon become less popular from the tool store Apple Basket.

From the upstairs bedroom you start to hear regular sleep, and the workshop, which was busy until a short while ago, doesn't stand a single noise right now.

On the New Year's Eve, Granferia was surrounded by tranquillity that changed from hitting the New Year's Eve.

It's still a little early for the date to change. But all this day, the big city was also falling asleep.

"A, ooh......"

- People are asleep.

- Grand Feria is also in the midst of a lot of things.

- But...

"Ooh......"

But the outsiders.

Dark, chemical things crawl around deep underground with no one's eyes -.

"Oooo......"

A potion of failures that have been flowing down through the tubes.

"Nanica" sensed it in a sewer that did not shine light, making a juggling noise and rubbing the potion.

Who the hell is he who drinks up the reagent mixed with sewage and pulses his body?

No one knows the answer. I'm sure he doesn't even know who he is. But that was all I had to do, instinctively understood.

"Wah, watashiha......"

The man, who uttered an obtuse voice, made a noise as he sloughed, and vanished into the back of the sewer.

The frigid eyes were directed toward the vain, without dwelling on the light until the end.

- And from this night on, the Granferia began to have Phantoms present.

The first victim came out.

Intermediate district with the sound of a hammer early in the morning. People rushing around to prepare for the New Year's Festival saw a crowd in downtown Central Square.

"Hey, what is that...?

It's not uncommon for someone to be down on the side of the road at night. Many men have fallen downtown, including the drunk, the blue bruised, and the sleeping pills sniffed by illegal whores.

But this case is unusual. A man who had turned upside down in downtown central square, even though there was no pub or whorehouse open. Dressed in a police force cold suit, he is rattling and trembling with his white eyes peeled.

From his body stood a sweet smell like fruit liquor, but he doesn't seem drunk. The cheeks are dyed red like roses - but the residents of downtown had never seen a face so distressingly distorted.

"Whoa, what's up?

"Killing's husband!

The most rushed adventurers were those led by the Alliance Master as the wild horses watched creepy and far-flung.

For three days after the beginning of the year, the adventurers are intensifying their outlook with a grand New Year's festival. Intermediate districts are their territory, and the fact that there will be incidents here is a question of selling tickets.

There was no way I could overlook it, and if it was someone's fault, I was resolutely going to take control of the guy in that condition.

Bloody adventurers. But this incident was something that clouded even a rough guy like them.

"Ugh, what the hell? I can smell it."

I don't see any puke, but I can smell it from the victim's body.

There is talk that body odor changes depending on what you eat and drink, but this is too much.

The servant Killing also glanced at his body and, paying his nose tip by hand, gave instructions to the men he was leading.

"Besides, even though the blood color is good, you look like a dead person... Whoa, take it. Let him throw up. Let him take the antidote."

"Yes!"

If this was just paralysis, you would have found 'Under the Roses' to be a new drug sprinkled with bulk.

If you had seen bruises or lacerations, you could have predicted it was a robbery, or a fight.

"Early in the New Year, don't let it come..."

Killing shrugged as he dropped off a victim who didn't fall under any rule of thumb.

There is no New Year's festival that ends with nothing. Every year, some kind of incident occurs.

However, to Killing, this seemed different in colour from those things.

The second victim - no, the first witness was an orphan living in the lower district.

Noon granferria with trumpet tones. The children, who had put a table out in the orphanage yard and were carrying such a treat, noticed that one, and another, and chicken and ham were missing.

"Hey, who is it? Who's the one with the stuffing?

Double the person, Kevin, who was looking forward to the New Year's dinner party, always put what he was doing on the shelf and started looking for the killer with a serious look on his face.

"Didn't you eat it?

"Chi, no, Mimil. It's not Kevin."

"Yes, no, no, no."

Advice, Kevin being able to put a scratch on the girls, including Mimil and May, Estelle and Bella.

What sheltered him was Baird, who was moving with Kevin, a young threesome of Cyril, Bardo and Theo.

"Did the angel have it?

Friendly Alyssa dyed her cheeks slightly on the slender face of a grinning Will.

"Moutabetaiino!?

"Oh, oh, no, Lillard"

"Damn! He said you shouldn't eat it yet!

Bella, Carl, and Nick rushed after Lillard, who began to jump.

"Amu."

"Dull...... they all look like fun, don't they? Hey?"

And Nene, holding the worm, looked pleasantly at the bustling crowd.

"Come on, guys. I'll carry the cake too. Yo!

"" "Yes!

Children who are called by Sister Rudos and run fine.

Those who remained in the garden also lined up dishes and divided salads to help for their families.

It is a soothing sight that deserves to celebrate the New Year. There was always warm air flowing through the Bright Orphanage.

- Of,

"Phew!

Things were different this day.

On a glass of water, like a drop of ink - a vague discomfort was blurring the sixth sense of one girl.

"Ooh......"

"Shh!

Nyadia the Black Cat.

The girl, who always looked like a tung, was chasing a foreign object that broke into the orphanage and turned her ears and tail upside down with a backyard stain.

"Holy shit! Nyah!"

Bubbly yellow body. The whole body was made of mucus. It was very similar to the slime Nyadia saw in her picture book, a monster that trembled naturally and scared.

"O...... O......"

"Phew!

Nyadia tries to intimidate her opponent with her whole body and drive Slime to the soot in the garden.

But the mucus monster just randomly makes his body snap, and he doesn't even try to turn his consciousness to Nyadia.

"Oooo......"

In the body of the monster, chicken and flesh pieces bubble up and dissolve.

Even as she shuddered small at the look of it, Nyadia was diligently buying time.

"Thank you for waiting -! I brought the Dean. Yo!

Reinforcements came sooner than Nyadia thought.

A dog beast woman who popped out like a bullet and came back with Rudos.

Goldie, a large body, shoved Rudos with a cane in front of the monster after he put out his serpentine tongue and prepared his breath.

"Sa, Doctor. Make up your mind."

"Yeah, yeah."

No way in the King's Capital - Rudos, who never thought there was a demon on the orphanage grounds or anything like that, was cutting a cross and calming the upset.

(Someone used subpoena magic? Or mission magic? It doesn't seem like a wild demon...)

After gently hiding Nyadia, who still continues to intimidate her, Rudos hoisted his wand toward heaven.

Cut the cross with your empty right hand and hope for divine punishment for evil beings. Holy moves [Grand Cross] motion.

"It is in heaven, our Father. May you bring peace to this land..."

The wand is wrapped in white light and a golden cross appears over the demon's head.

"Priest" The only, mighty attack skill was trying to purify the demon right now.

- But,

"Ooh, ooh, ooh!"

"Become!?

Bullshit! and made a noise, and the demon stormed Rudos.

Even though the chant was almost complete - you sensed it, the demonic movement was impatient, and Rudos was stunningly poked at the impression.

"Ku......!

Trying to protect only the children, at least, Rudos spread his hands and blocked the demonic path.

But the demon stitches the gap and pushes it behind her, as if to mock Rudos' mercy -.

I stuck it on Goldie's face, as if I was after him.

"Ha ha!?

"Goldie!?

Slime, wrapped around Goldie's head, went into her mouth making pompous, pompous noises and, for that matter, gradually decreasing in volume.

"Whoa!?

Even when Frenzied Goldie clawed that the pull was yes, it just crumbled all over the slime and never left at all.

"Yes, now, I will help!

"Mmmm!?

Rudos, in a hurry, thought he had to stop, burned all of Gordie's demons in the light of [Grand Cross].

Then, so that he could play, the demon jumped away from Goldie and jumped over the orphanage fence at an astonishing rate. A little late, how afro gordie makes a noise and falls to the ground.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Goldie."

Even though he had no choice, Rudos, who used his offensive skills on his beloved family, desperately put [heels] on Gordie, frustrated by remorse.

But contrary to her expectations, the wound was shallow, and soon Goldie raised her face and stopped Rudos' hand continuing [heels].

"Goldie!? So, are you okay?

"... Yep"

Gordie stood up rocking her dog ears and afro.

She - she looked strangely pretty and began to say something strange.

"I've never felt so refreshed. It's like a whole body of cells reborn...... Sister, thank you. I've had more before, and my head is covered."

"Oh, Goldie?

There seemed to be a lot of reason - the fruit of it, seeing Gordie's face full of madness, Nyadia escaped.

Scared by the shaky brown afro, a little bird flew out of the garden at the same time.

Still unintentionally, Gordie looks up to heaven with her hands wide open, her eyes narrowed and she speaks with a taunt.

"I get it. I get it. About this star. About this world. Meaning of a creature living. God's presence. Devil's plan. I can understand everything about it."

"Goldie, Goldie!? Or, come back!

"Ahhh......! What... the world was so easy, wasn't it? I know. I know. Yes, this is the door to truth..."

"Goldie!?

At last, Goldie opens and closes the toilet door and intellectually shines her eyes.

The scent, which began to rise from her body, was a stench like pounding gelo on fruit liquor.
