King's Landing

"Are you saying... "The Piper of Hamel"?"

"Wait, what's going on? Be careful, Sixteen Nights."

Seeing that Shirayasha's face became serious, Ikuya made a surprised voice.

"Ok?"

"Oh, sorry, you may not know-the so-called "Hamel's Piper" is the name of a community under the command of a certain demon king."

"what!?"

Bai Yacha didn't give Shikuye and the others a chance to be surprised, so he arranged his thoughts and continued to narrate in a solemn tone.

"The demon king with special talents once summoned demons from nearly two hundred magic books, and led a community named "Grimm.grimoire"."

After speaking, the black rabbit immediately spoke, but no one noticed that when he heard Grimm.grimoire, Leticia's eyes flickered slightly in the corner.

"However, after the demon king lost in the gift game with a certain community, he should be no longer in the world."

"The Devil is dead, so the "Hamel's Piper" should have lost its power. But then again, why is "Rattenfanger" the "Hamel's Piper"...?"

Bai Yasha cast his gaze on Ikuya, and felt a few rays of light fall on him. Ikuya and Wuhejian looked at each other and found that he was not prepared to explain, so after shrugging, he crossed his legs. She began to explain.

"'Rattenfanger' is a language used by a country called Germany, which means'mouse catcher.' And this mouse catcher is actually a metaphor for "Hamel's Piper" in Grimm's fairy tales. A fairy tale of Grimm?"

Everyone nodded one after another, and then sixteen nights continued.

"In the original Grimm's fairy tale, "Hamel" is the town where the story takes place, but there are several story creation stages in it, all of which are based on historical research. "The Piper of Hamel" is also one of them."

The inscription used as a prototype by Grimm's fairy tale "The Piper of Hamel" is as follows:

——June 26, John and Paul’s Remembrance Day in 1284. A child born in Hamel was seduced by a piper dressed in various colors, and finally disappeared at the execution ground near the hills——This inscription is It is narrating the real event that happened in Hamel town and showing it with a piece of stained glass.

"...The piper in this Grimm's fairy tale is "Rattenfanger", who can be considered as a person who can manipulate mice."

"Manipulate the mouse...!?"

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Asuka."

Asuka's startled breath caught everyone's attention, but her face seemed to struggle a little.

"...No, nothing, I just..."

"Speak up, Asuka. That little guy shouldn't have anything to do with the Demon King."

"what?"

This time, even Ikuya and Shiroyasha also sat up straight.

"That one………"

"Forget it, let me explain. Asuka will add it."

Seeing flying birds hesitating, Wuhejian smiled and took the initiative to tell.Of course, many places need to be supplemented by flying birds, such as the encounter with the elf and the "Rattenfanger", and the red giant and the flute controlling the mouse.

When the narration is over, everyone's expressions become heavy.

"In other words, is it possible that the person the eldest lady met was "Hamel's Piper"? Combined with the foresight of the demon king's attack, the target this time would not be them."

After making this judgment, Ikuya looked at the elf in Asuka's arms.

"But what's the matter with this little guy?"

"Is she too..."

"No, no, she was the target of those rats, and at that time, the voice also said, "Found... the bold fanatic posing as "Rattenfanger"."

Slightly excited to defend the elf, in fact, a large part of the reason Asuka didn't want to say it was also the elf.

"Pretending to be'Rattenfanger'? Why didn't you say it before... Forget it, is it true or false? The community to which this little guy belongs has offended the name of'Rattenfanger'? I remember you said it, in the exhibit There is a red giant made by this little guy’s guild, Missy."

"Well, it's Dean."

"Then, Shiroyasha. Now you can reveal the information of the "Rattenfanger" who will be competing with Kasugabe tomorrow? It is not a trivial matter that the remnant party of the Demon King of Destruction sneaked into the Fire Dragon Birth Festival."

Ikuyo's eyes flashed towards Shiroyasha, the devil!Finally there is a clue, which is simply a touch for her!

"Ha, even if it is revealed, it is of no use. All participating guilds undergo a strict review before the competition, so at least there is no abnormality in the information."

"Tsk, you can only wait until they take the initiative to show their feet! "Grimm.grimoire", "Hamel's Piper", and the true and false "Rattenfanger", this is not too exciting for me Yet!"

Unlike Asuka's frowning face, Ikuya faced the Demon King's intelligence with the opposite expression of joy and excitement.In her heart, she was probably already thinking about all kinds of situations that would arise.

"I didn't expect Asuka would encounter an enemy beforehand. Well, but anyway, this is some useful information. Tomorrow I will send someone to monitor the "Rattenfanger"..."

"Wait-let's leave the monitoring of "Rattenfanger" to Asuka!"

"What!? Are you serious? Kid?"

Bai Yasha, Black Rabbit, Leticia...probably only Ikuya was not surprised at the scene, perhaps she had already budgeted something crucial in her heart.

"Of course, would you like to believe me? Miss Asuka."

"Not willing."

He refused without hesitation, but Wuhejian was not depressed, because, in the next moment, Miss Asuka reaffirmed her position.

"However, for this child, I must find out the truth."

"Asuka..."

"It's her own choice. If she says more, she won't be familiar, Black Rabbit."

Izayoi spoke to stop the Black Rabbit, but the Black Rabbit was still a little worried.

"Um! But..."

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it when the time comes. If you encounter danger again, just carry it back as you did today."

"...! Even if it's dangerous, I won't give you another chance, you shameless pervert!"

Faced with shame and scolding, Miss Asuka would always lose her calm when facing Wuhejian, the unscrupulous demon lord.

"Okay, leave the rest to me. However, in case of any accident, it will be your turn to play, please."

The group nodded in response, "The first meeting to make the black rabbit referee costume more sexy and cute" finally ended, and the night gradually darkened.
