It Seems like My Body Is Completely Invincible
Book of Orthoagina
This is the librarian's room.
We're just talking about Theta and Rachel right now.
In this case, the theft of Orthoagina's book.
It has never been the case that a stored book has been stolen or lost.As a result, management and security have been strengthened over the years, but they cannot be completely prevented.So it shouldn't be such a fuss, but I couldn't say that this time.
Because the door of a closed library, which should only be opened by the chief librarian, was opened and the book that was brought out was a precious book of Orthoagina.
Of course, Theta didn't forget to close it.In the first place, that door is an auto-lock type that closes on its own.
"I can't believe Orthoagina's book was just found yesterday and stolen all of a sudden...."
"It's too early to plan.If I had planned this, I would have known where it was. "
Rachel continued to murmur at Theta.
"But if I can open the door without opening it, isn't it strange to steal it at this time?
"I see. I wonder if those who found out about the book yesterday... would squeeze me out."
"Yesterday, what do you know about your stepfather who heard the report, the priest who was there, and Mr. Gillan?
"I don't know what the father of the clan leader would do to steal it, but I sent the three of them to come here."
"That's my sister-in-law.I'm going to work early. "
Theta sees the idea coming and admires Rachel's ability, which has already moved on to action, while Theta decides to move on.
"So, after yesterday, was there anything suspicious?
I see, how many unidentified monsters have broken into the town?
"Hmm, it's a monster. That's not surprising, but I think there's been an increase in the number of times I've been in town lately..."
After hearing Rachel's report, Theta wasn't particularly surprised when the monsters appeared.Just because Cairomaia is located in the middle of the lake, it is no longer isolated from monster wonders because it is in the old forest.It was not particularly surprising because it was common to allow monsters to enter the city.
But what worried me was the existence of a distorted monster who was not sure what it was that was coming out of here recently.
When I asked someone familiar with monsters, they said, "I've never seen it, maybe it's a new species or a synthetic beast," and Theta remembers that the stepfather of the clan leader was blurred that if the appearance rate was likely to increase, it might have to be investigated in earnest.
"If it was just an intrusion into the town, I wouldn't report it, but this time there was an intrusion into the Great Book Tower."
"A monster broke into the town inside the Great Book Tower?
Theta asked Rachel in surprise that it was her first time.
"Hmm, I don't really understand that.It seems that someone who was patrolling the tower found it unexpectedly, and it wasn't that strong, so I was able to crush it alone, but he said he didn't see any signs of an intrusion from outside. "
"Hmm, I'll leave the monster to your stepfather.Maybe we should focus on the book and the door. "
After listening to Rachel, Theta feels like she won't be able to solve it early, so she closes her eyes and closes her arms.
"Honestly, I have little knowledge of the book of Orthoagina and I don't even know its value.If you're looking at a lot of things as a hint to open the door, the name just comes up, and you only know what it's like to be an old Chiromeia book. "
"Well... I don't even know the details, but they say it's a magical book made in ancient Chiromere.It's probably the oldest book I've ever studied, and it may contain the wisdom of the lost ancient Cairomaia. "
"That's awesome!Then you might even be able to control the library. "
Although it is a brow saliva, if Rachel's story is true, the value of the book to Theta becomes an eel climb.The sense of purpose that had to be regained boiled.
"I see. But they say that the book is a difficult book that requires special procedures, even if you just open it and read it.There was even a statement that the amateur didn't want to be a good substitute, and that he lost his life in the worst way. "
"Eh, it was such a mess."
Theta is surprised at Rachel's response and recalls the first time she saw the book.And when I remembered that huge shadow that came to mind when I touched it a little, I stopped thinking bludgeoning.
"Ah, if you don't know anything.Orthoagina's books must have been written by Elves, so most of them will be available for viewing if you go to the realm of Spirit Trees.It's not such a mess. "
Theta made a frightened gesture, so Rachel hastily added in her condolences.
"Well, I'm curious about you, but I'm also curious about the fact that you opened the door besides me.If other people can open it, please tell me how.Already. "
I wondered if she had distracted me, and Theta shook another topic of interest to Rachel to change the story.
"You know there's only one way to open the door without going through theta, right?
"What? Is that what happened?
In response to Rachel's unexpected question, Theta leans her neck and digs up her memory, but immediately finds nothing that comes to mind.
"Once upon a time, you were mad at me for doing something terrible."
Rachel sends out a rescue boat with the feeling of "hello" to Theta's face.
"Ah, yes, yes, that's what I tried unexpectedly.If the outside is no good, how about from the inside?Ah, don't remember, onee-chan made me cry so frightened. "
Theta remembers a long time ago when things looked bad.
At that time, Theta, who had not been able to go as she wished and was mentally caught up with her, closed the library that had been open for a long time from the inside, wondering what she thought and what she could see from the inside.
It was a rather dangerous act, and if the door could not be opened, Theta could have been trapped in the vault and never come out again.
But Theta's presence here now means that she managed to open the door.I am glad to say that the experience has not been used at all so far.Because if the door came from the inside, somehow it would be easy for anyone to open it.
Theta laughs bitterly at the impact of seeing Rachel cry for the first time as angry and sad, rather than losing her applause when she opens it just by pressing it normally.
"But when you close the door, make sure there's no one there before you close it, and you made sure you did.In the first place, we kept it to ourselves, so no one should know. "
"... well, it's a possibility, so it's not the right answer in this case.There shouldn't have been anyone left in that library in the first place..... "
Then Rachel stopped the conversation and headed towards the door.I kept the door open and talked to the user I was waiting for.Theta doesn't have to worry about it, she thinks about what she's going to do.
"What the hell, Gillan isn't here?
Rachel suddenly stopped thinking about Theta and listened.
"Yes, I went to the house, I was absent, there was no carriage, I asked the person at home, and I went out alone earlier this morning.I don't know when I'll be back..... "
"Oh, thank you. You can go back to work."
Rachel listened and returned the user dressed as calm.
"Miss Gillan?I wonder at this timing. "
When Rachel closes the door and is alone again, Theta opens her mouth.
"That's true, but it might be a quick plan... Anyway, let's talk to the priest and dad and think about it."
"I feel like it's too late.So, Rachel, listen to them.I have a little concern, so I'll go to the gatekeeper and talk to him a little bit more. "
"Really? If Theta says so, I will, but don't stop there.I'll come straight back here when I hear it. "
"Wow, that's what I'm saying again.I'm not a kid anymore!
To tell Rachel half the joke, Theta stood up with her face full and headed straight to the door.
As she left the tower, Theta arrived at the gate in agony, driven by the urge to stop by while looking at the town.And I'm in the middle of seeing the doorman and listening.
"Mr. Gillan. Speaking of which, this morning was unusual and early ~"
"Is there anything that bothers you?
"What bothers you?Speaking of which, I guess I was in a hurry... as always, I barely heard what I was saying, but I was frustrated to let you through.No, he's a troubled uncle. "
"Hah... ah, didn't you say where you were going?
"... no, I didn't say that.Ah, but did you say something about the Spirit Tree? "
As I recall, Theta says to herself, "Was my intuition right?"
When this happened, Guillaume became more and more suspicious.No, I may not have just stumbled on it by chance, but it would be suspicious if I said it was suspicious.
Theta thanked and broke up with the gatekeeper and looked around.
If we rent a horse from now on, we may be able to rendezvous with them when they reach the Spirit Tree.If you think too much and no one is there, it would not be bad because you can report that it was a worrying thing.
If there was a problem, Theta was out.
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
Theta apologizes with her head down toward the Great Library Tower, where Rachel will be.
Theta couldn't get out of Cairo Maia just because she was the chief librarian.
However, Rachel is worried that Theta will leave Chiromaia.I'm so scared that it's already overprotective...
Anyway, it's basically Rachel doesn't want to take Theta out, and she'll come with him in any case.
Well, maybe Theta's parents went out there for research and investigation, and they were attacked by monsters and died in an accident, and they weren't worried that Theta would do the same.
Nevertheless, Theta does not intend to become a bird in the cage, and she goes out on her own to apologize for her absence.Recently, Rachel has given up, and I will preach every time, but I will not monitor Theta's behavior.That's why going out is basically no. Especially out of the way like where we're going this time.Speaking of which, they would definitely object even if they were accompanied.
In fact, after listening to Rachel, Theta's book of Orthoagina was quite up in stock.I would definitely like to read what is written.And Theta realizes that she's starting to really want the knowledge to be able to solve the problems of today.
As soon as I found the book I wanted to read, I couldn't help it. I recalled what Rachel had said before that it was Theta's disadvantage and advantage to act, and Theta smiled as if she was right.
Theta's theory is that even if Guillaume took out the book of Orthoagina, its purpose would be to sell it.Half of the purpose for which he came to this town was to buy and sell books.At first glance, it seems that they are engaged in legitimate sales, but rumors suggest that they are also selling stolen goods.Anyway, I shouldn't feel like giving him a book won't be too busy.
And even if Gillan only saw the book as a product, he knew from some relationship that he would not buy or sell it without checking the contents, so it was highly likely that he went out to check it again this time.
Theta concludes that, although she has thought a lot about it, since it is only hypothesis based on circumstantial evidence, it would be a good idea to go to the site now anyway.
"I'm aiming at the realm of the Spirit Tree... my story begins now... I can't believe it"
Theta started walking with a little inspiration when she went out for a long time.
