It's all one flower.

1652. Neglected libraries

In cities on the mainland of the Republic of Artel, schools continue to be closed as a countermeasure to predation by monsters and beasts.

Roark came to the Spina City Central Library with Klaus Tra.

It is a small city in the northeast of the capital, Lufthans, midway with the city of Ignikans.There is a Tarum base nearby, but recovery work continues from unexplained explosions.

War has eroded the Artel economy, bankruptcy of companies, personal shops and other businesses followed by closure.All that benefits is the munitions industry, which pays national fees.

Still, the city of Spina seems to be better off in regional cities than the Tarum base restoration work has become a recipe for the unemployed.

... that's better?

Compared to downtown Lufthans and Ignicans, which we investigated earlier, the fire seems to have gone out.I don't know how it looked, but the long shopping streets have shutters and fewer stores are open.

Only the supermarket lights up flashy signs.Lost somewhere else to shop, residents flock around like moths and feathers, and five guards organize traffic at the entrance and exit.

On the road from the long-distance bus rotary to the central library, I saw no child at all.

Even in Spina, adults line up on payphones for business contacts.

According to a newspaper image taken by Klaus Tra from a comrade residing in the Republic of Artel, a queue of public telephones was attacked by a beast in Spina City.

Local police and army units rushed in, but they were slow enough to take out 56 victims at once, and then let the Beast escape.

Damage is still sporadic across the Artel mainland.

One of the super guards I saw passing by was a magical warrior with a "guard" armor wrapped around his [armor].A beast exterminator on Lanterna Island travels to places like this and works magnificently in a group of Kilcrusians.

... I guess it doesn't matter how you behave.

The Artel branch of the Kilcruz denomination makes no comment about hiring a wizard from Lanterna Island.

The press doesn't seem to dare touch on the matter.

If you don't get an answer, the fact that you were silenced is also worth the news, but you don't even have an article that tells you no comments.

... maybe because the reporter hires a guard.

The Spina Central Library had fewer visitors than expected.

I walked separately from Klaus Tra in the bookshelf, but I saw a few homeless men scrolling around the magazine in the reading seat by the window.

A computer dedicated to searching the newspaper's database had a sticker on the display.

Not available due to bad internet connection.

The recovery potential is unknown.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to our citizens.

Saint Kilcrus Lacteus.

Bring us and them to the path of the holy stars, by the light of the darkness, and by the light of the light, by the light of the light.

The date is November of last year and the keyboard gap is clogged with cotton dust.

Literature bookshelves are almost entirely on loan for classical and contemporary novels.

The cleaner quickly sweeps the Scasca stairs with wings and moves on to the next shelf.

Theological bookshelves are not even picture books, and another cleaner carefully hangs rags.

"Um, I'm sorry. Is this shelf book being cleaned or dodged?

"No, we're all on loan.In the meantime, I wanted to protect you.I've been told I'm going to repaint my varnish. "

"Is there anyone who rents it for so long?

"No, they're already filled with reservations this year."

"Hmm? Um, it's still April, right?

Roark was seriously surprised.

The cleaner puts a gray rag in the bubbling bucket and takes the white rag out of the bucket with clean water and squeezes it.

"There are more and more people who want to enroll their children in seminaries."

"Ah... after all, everyone's thinking about it together!"

Roark thanked and moved to the math shelf.

Only one fallen library remains on the shelf.

A reproduction of a paper and commentary on probative issues published half a century before the civil unrest.I'll just roll it up. It's an old theory, and now it's dominated by more efficient solutions.

... it's not about taking the exam, so you don't owe anybody.

I put it on the shelf, but the thin library couldn't stand on its own, and fell down in a rattling noise.

Biology, chemistry, geology, astronomy, physics, electronics... science bookshelves are almost empty.

As a result of the Internet cut-off, schools that adopted e-books for textbooks and used the cloud were unable to even self-study.

In families without the financial means to go to school due to the prolonged suspension of school for magic beast measures, they have to use the library.

In bookstores, paper reference books exploded in sales, but many children could not buy them because their parents were unemployed.

Due to economic disparities, academic disparities were becoming fixed.

The ART employs conscripts and undergoes enlistment examinations from the age of sixteen.

According to the teachings of Kilcrusm, tuition is free from elementary school to university, but not until the cost of living.Young people who dropped out of high school and university and enlisted in the army surged, mainly in families where their parents lost their jobs.

Attacks on the territory of the Republic of Nemoraris are dormant because the base is still unable to recover its functions and the drone refill is not proceeding due to budgetary constraints.

However, on the Artel mainland, the appearance of the beast has continued since the communication shutdown last fall.

There is no doubt that it includes not only the occurrence from the body involved in the explosion, but also the summons by some person and its mission.

Roark and the others still couldn't grasp who the Summoners and Envoys were.

... Porcica and Guerrilla were Nemoralys.

Currently, Artel Army Recruits are dispatched to exterminate the Beast.

Trained and capable of handling automatic small arms and the like, it is unlikely that a powerless people can beat a beast intact.

The army's general troops didn't have much time to earn before the beast exterminator called from Lanterna Island arrived at the scene.

Magic beasts become stronger every time they eat “creatures of the world with magic”, such as humans.There is constant recruitment of martyrs and veterans of serious injuries.

Roark passed several empty shelves and merged with Klaus Tra, who looked from the other side.
