Theta woke up about an hour after the incident.

I was surprised by the storm of physical examination of Rachel's anger that I was watching nearby immediately after waking up in the library director's office, but I was surprised by the thoughts of my sister-in-law who worried me so much.

I was asked if there was anything wrong, but there was no problem. If I had to say it, I would have wondered what happened to me after I confronted the book. Theta didn't remember much.

There, Rachel briefly explains that she has fallen due to a mysterious phenomenon.

I heard that Magilca and the others had regained consciousness and came to visit me.

Rachel told me that it was Mary who helped her, so I wanted to thank her first and look for her.

But Mary wasn't there.

Apparently, Mary wanted to speak to her father-in-law about the eggs and Liglesh.

Mary told Magilka and the others that she would be back soon and went out with Sherry.

Theta sees fit to think that Mary's actions have something to offer.

Well, in fact, it's hard to say when asked about breaking through the barrier of Orthoagina's book without difficulty, so it came from the shallowness of thinking about leaving and having a talk with Yaya, but Theta had no way of knowing that.

Later, Tutte and the Spirit seemed to follow her.

"I'm glad you're doing well."I experienced what a dangerous book looked like.You're all going through such a dangerous experience, but you're still trying to decipher it. ”

Well, there are many people with a strong desire to seek knowledge and who do not want to avoid danger.

Theta, who was praised as surprised by Magyrka and did not feel bad, answers as if she were someone else, smiling at her.

“That's the same for Theta.That said, it was unexpected that Orthoagina's book would react like that. "

Rachel shrugs off Theta and shows everyone the story.

Without fear of what happened earlier, Theta offered Rachel both her hands to lend her a hand.

While sighing at Theta, Rachel thinks that she will be fine because she has no problems until now, but she slowly gives it to her because of a little anxiety that she might react to Theta alone.

"... this is the path to everything I, Ort Agina, have left..."

As soon as she got the book, Theta was surprised to hear herself say such a thing.

“That's probably the opening sentence of this book.I think the masked man read it and was convinced.Orthoagina... the founder of Kyrommeia, whose book is the path to this man... "

So, what did Theta say to unseal it?

When Theta is surprised at herself, Rachel and Magilka look back on what happened earlier and ask Theta questions.

Huh? Did I ever say that?

In response to Magilca's question, Theta shouted with a frantic voice that she did not remember seeing again.

“Theta doesn't remember what happened.So I don't know what the words mean. "

Rachel replies instead of Theta.

Well then, you don't even know the landscape that came out of that light.

"The landscape... then, do you know your sister-in-law?"

I don't know for sure, but I think it's like the catacombs where Riglesh gathered last time.

Rachel's answers are so theta that she has no memory of the catacombs.After all, I didn't even know it existed until today, so I don't think it's impossible.At that point, Rachel was surprised that she remembered so much detail just once, and as a little mojo, Theta immediately put an end to her feelings.

It's a catacombs. It's nearby, so let's check it out!

It's true that some of Theta's inquisitiveness makes her do so, but I must not feel that something else is driving her.That said, even if you lie down here, your questions remain unanswered and you're just puzzled.

In that case, there is only action that is better than thinking.

Theta is more or less a faction, so when he jumped up from the sofa vigorously, he was aiming for the entrance to the Great Book Tower.

Under the bridge, the party arrived at the hidden door and went straight into it.

It was the same last time, but because the entrance was narrow, the Divine Beasts were left alone with the prince.

"Sure... I feel like it's similar to the landscape here."Is it somewhere in this catacombs? ”

Magilka looked around and checked, but Theta couldn't remember, so she had to tilt her head.

Everyone saw the landscape, so why don't we split up and look for it?

No, this cemetery is quite large, so I'm lost in geography.

Ah, I see.

If Theta suggests anything, Rachel immediately disagrees.Although I was convinced that it was true, I thought that Rachel might be estranged from here.

"This place is... inconvenient."If you show it to me, why don't you prepare a map for me? "

If you look at the book of Ortho-Agina while being chaste, I think that the book glowed, and something like a map appeared in Theta's brain.

Sheeta, sheeta!

It feels like Rachel is calling me from a distance, and Theta brings consciousness back to reality.

"Eh? What, onee-san?"

"What is it? Are you okay?"I was suddenly spreading out my book and standing up with Bo, so I was surprised at what happened. "

"... somehow it seemed to resonate with Theta, the keys and the book, but was there something wrong?"

Magilka calmly asked Theta about Rachel, who was in a panic.

"Nhh, I think there was something, but I think I know where it is." Follow me. "

When she says that, Theta takes the lead and walks out.

And in a few tens of minutes.

I was surprised to lead everyone to the desired place.

”I wonder if it's a good fit here...?”

"... I can't believe there was such a place here..."

Rachel muttered in amazement, leaving Theta aside to wonder if this was the place where the footage was.

And the place was reminiscent of an altar, and it seemed as if it was a festival, but it was broken greatly, and it was not clear what it was.

Perhaps it was made by former inhabitants who celebrated something for the dead.However, theta gets creepy when she feels that it was intentionally destroyed rather than weathered.

"Nhh, it's similar to here."If I hadn't remembered correctly, would there have been a staircase down? "

Even though it was only a few minutes old, Zach seemed to remember it that way and asked everyone around him.

And for some reason, everyone's gaze naturally focused on Theta.

"Ehhhhh, there must be something here."Let's do a little search...... "

When Theta laughed vaguely, who hadn't thought of anything, she suggested to everyone to explore for the time being.

He bitterly smiles that he is not like Magilka or Mary, or someone who guides people with dignity or shadow.

"Excuse me, isn't this the key hole in the library?"

Soon after we started exploring, Safina spoke to no one, and everyone turned to you and stopped by.

A part of the back of the collapsed altar was removed by the safina, and the keyhole often seen from it was exposed.

”Uguu, I can't believe you're waiting for a keyhole challenge here... what should I do? The shape of the key is special”

Since I have tried it many times already, I can tell at a glance whether this is a door with a special key or not, I feel itchy in my teeth, and even though I've come this far, Theta gets angry at my helplessness.

This is why I am said to be useless in the shadows, and my feelings towards myself that are not different from those of the past gradually lean towards abandonment.

When the book of Orthoagina is caged, it shines as if the book answers it.

Then, when the book opens on its own, the key held by the theta reacts, and the shape begins to deform on its own.

No, it's not on its own. The images flowing from the book are sent to the key through Theta's intermediary.In fact, theta also understands the shape of the key that is sent.

Then, once the deformed key was inserted into the hole, it snugly fits in, and the unlocking was successful.

The rumble echoes through the room, the altar slides, and the staircase descends to reveal itself.

"So, we did it... wow, this is the book of Ort Agina."Could it be that the doors of the Great Book Tower cover everything? "

Trembling with surprising facts, Theta couldn't hide her excitement at further possibilities.

“You did it, Theta. If that's true, you can play the role of librarian now.No one is going to despise you in the shadows anymore! "

When Rachel heard Theta's words, she smiled the most and revealed the truth, so Theta smiled bitterly without saying anything.

Everyone around me who sympathized with me that there was no choice but to face the outside world felt indignation inside.Until now, the doors were opened as a matter of course, but suddenly the Theta's generation prevented them from opening them.

The black part of them was reluctant to accept it, but unlike Theta, Rachel couldn't see it.

Maybe Theta was exploring all the possibilities to get the job done.

For example, a group seeking the past...

"So, what are we going to do?" Do you want to go down?Do you want to go back and get ready? "

As Rachel rejoiced, Theta renewed her determination not to let her down any longer, and Zach peered down the stairs and asked for everyone's opinion.

Theta unconsciously looks towards Magilca, and she shakes her head to the side.Perhaps you're deciding to go with caution.

Originally, Theta was supposed to take her thoughts, which would be the honorable Saintess, and choose to return once and for all, but this time she felt safe underneath for some reason.

"Let's go down like this."I feel like Ortho-Agina is leading us. "

Theta answers Zach's question and goes straight down.

Illuminated by the light I had, the dark space gradually illuminated.

At the end of the hallway down the stairs, there was a large room.

Nothing. Just a big room.

But when the wall in front of them was illuminated, they were all nailed.

"... what is this..."

A large mural was painted there.

"Given the circumstances, perhaps a mural about ancient Kyrômeia..."

Rachel answered Theta's murmur.

While various scenes are painted, Theta is nailed to a large mural painted in the center.

And it shall come to pass, that the people of the firstborn shall fall on their knees, and pray as they rise up unto heaven: and there shall be a great tower beyond them.And on top of that...

The figure of a large dragon was depicted.

And then, that black giant shadow I saw behind Theta's head.

I don't know why, but the chills run down my spine and cold sweat drifts down my spine.

Surprisingly, I was there to be scared of something I didn't remember seeing.

It wasn't about my history, it was more of a root reaction, as if it was engraved in a gene.

Looking sideways at Rachel, she, like Theta, was nailed to the mural with a cold sweat.

"It's quite an old mural, isn't it?Is it the dragon that is depicted in the center?From the structural point of view, it seems that it is safe to assume that this dragon is worshipped by the elves. "

Magilka's voice echoed in the room as she calmly looked around.Apparently, they didn't seem to feel this unidentified fear.

"Ms Magilka, look." The room is filled with murals. ”

The Safina lights up walls other than the front as it moves away from everyone.A mural with a different composition was painted there.All of them were centered on dragons.

Again, Theta saw the dragon depicted in the mural.

The skin was as black as if it were scandalous, and the part from the inner neck to the stomach was as bright red as blood.From the back, two large wings are drawn, spread out as if they enveloped everything.

The figure standing on two legs was so large that it could not be beaten by the large tower painted under it.

Theta unconsciously approaches the murals.

Later, Theta touched the mural as if invited, to the point where she could not understand why she had touched it.

The next moment, the magic light sparks from my fingertips and walls, and the book opens up quickly.

Theta?

Rachel calls out to Theta, who feels that she is acting strange, and as she approaches her, she sees this sight and stiffens.

She held an open book, lowered her glowing key to her neck, shaking her body again, and opened her eyes in amazement at what she saw.

Shit!

When Rachel noticed the anomaly, she shouted, and at the same time, the light disappeared from Theta's eyes.

"... huwen... dinidankai... kajo... kakunin"

Following Theta's words without emotions, the light emanating from the key hits the center of the mural, and the line of light spreads across the wall like a braid.

Then, the rumbling of the ground echoed, and a stone tablet rose beside the mural.

Shit!

In a similar development to the previous incident, Rachel rushes over to her again and tries to touch her body.

If it were the same as before, something like a barrier would have bounced here, and I couldn't get anywhere near it, but this time there was no wall blocking Rachel.

I don't care what happened to Rachel right now, so I grabbed Theta's shoulder and shook it.

Magilka was the only one who noticed that Mary had malfunctioned the original barrier.

"Shit, don't stop!" Go back to your senses! "

As the shaking power grows stronger and your body shakes, the light gradually returns from Theta's eyes.

"... hey, hey..."

"Wonderful! This is the truth of ancient Kyrommeia that you were looking for."

As soon as they heard Theta's voice, the excited voice of the man echoed from behind them, and everyone looked back at you.And there stood a man dressed as a priest.

"Priest Thomas?"

When I first met him, he was a very quiet image, so I looked at him loudly and Magilka felt uncomfortable.

"Oh, oh, dragons, dragons."After all, ancient Kyromeia was ruled by dragons. "

Unaware of Magilca's question, the priest was excited and looked around at the painting on the wall.

Then I begin to read the letters written on the tablet as if I were going to let everyone read them.

Ancient times.

A dragon came down on the land.

The name of the dragon that blows up the surrounding forest, scrapes the earth, and stands in the center is ---.

Ort Agina.

A lump of knowledge that wants to know everything.

When he woke up, he explored various things about the world and spread his knowledge.

I wonder how much time has passed since then.

One day, Orthoagina noticed that a species was gathering around her.

It is a dark elf born in this forest.

They have been attracted and worshipped by Orthoagina's knowledge and power.

For Orthoagina, they became an unfamiliar being, and at the same time a person who wanted to know, and they came to live here together.

We'll call this place Kyromeia later.

"... that is the fact of the birth of Kyrômeia."Our knowledge and skills were originally obtained from dragons..... "

"Maybe the center of the Great Book Tower was vast in vain..."

Referring to the paintings and letters on the murals, Theta and Rachel are stunned by the results they reach.

The priest glanced at them and proceeded to read another mural and stone tablet.

Time passed, and the fangs of knowledge gradually turned to the inhabitants.

It didn't take long for the human experiment, called the quest for knowledge, to begin.

They underestimated the dragon's greed for living in peace without the dragon knowing its existence.

That dragon doesn't have the ethics of a resident.

As a result, the inhabitants of Kyrômeia were the subject of an experiment in Orthoagina.

"...... W-We are... the subject of the experiment......"

"... Could it be that the size and body of this ancient catacombs were so large..."

Listening to the priest questioning his ears, Theta merely repeats the truth without swallowing it, and Rachel looks around realizing something.

No matter how unintelligible, no matter the fact that I don't want to, the pictures and letters in front of me will impose the facts of the past on Theta.

And they convinced me that their qualities were different from those of the other Elves, or the Dark Elves, who might be their own kind.

"They were rebuilt by dragons..."

"Kuku, fuhahaha, this is it, this is it!"That device was one of the ones used in this experiment!Wonderful, really wonderful! "

The priests exclaimed in excitement at the stunned Theta's ass.but it was Magilka who had doubts about some of the content.

That device?

"Oops, my mouth is so full of excitement..."I'm curious, I notice a lot of details.After all, I should have been more attentive if you were here. "

The priest who was excited about Magilca's point returned calmly and looked at her and reflected.The Priest felt Magyrka and the others, no, Theta felt as if she was vigilant about Magyrka.

"Well, look, the reinforcements also arrived from my own country, so the plan was early."If I had come this far, I would have been around already ".

Then the priest shows her a smile as thin as she has never seen before, and a chill runs down her spine.

"What... are you talking about?"

"Fuck, Theta, I'll give you one piece of advice."Please help us in the future.Ah, but... let's talk about it in the future. "

Theta, puzzled by the sudden priestly deeds, puts his hand in his pocket and advises him on what to take out.

"Just because I'm close to you and cooperative... doesn't mean I'm on your side."

With that said, I took what the priest took out to my face.

In this form, Theta took a deep breath.

The priest wore a mask on his face, a mask he knew very well.

The masked man who was responsible for this disturbance stood there.

"Oh, no..."

"Ah, yes. I'm not the only one who said anything earlier, I'm fucked up."

Knowing the facts of the past, and not being able to organize his head well, a further puzzling fact occurred, and Theta's thought circuits were in ruins.

With such a smile, Thomas, the masked man, said something deeply meaningful.

And the next moment, it was Rachel who moved.

I pulled out my sword and jumped towards Thomas.

However, a few daggers came at Rachel from the darkness, and when she wrapped them around her legs, she stopped.

In addition, two black men were approaching Rachel to pull her down.

It was a momentary event, and there were quite a few skillful people there.

At first glance, those blackheads were reminiscent of the blackheads in Liglesh, but if you look closely, you notice that the clothes are different and more organized.Then, Theta heard Magilka mutter in amazement, and the answer came out.

"... the British exterminator..."

The darkness of the Einhorn Episcopal Nation.

That's what was involved in this incident... "
