The carriage was stopped.

I wonder what that means.

This isn't the way a carriage goes.

I don't even have a house to visit by carriage.

Plus, he said it stopped in front of the Lecans' house.

(Kidnapped, were they?

If we overlap the information that the carriage that is not supposed to come with the situation that there is no Edda who is supposed to be there, the presumption is made that Edda was exposed in that carriage.

When it comes to the person who kidnaps Edda now, I can only think of two.

Temple of Kelles.

Goncourt family.

But the temple promised that the vice temple chief would not impose. And the deputy temple chief knows that if Lecan is angry, the temple will be rubble.

How about the Goncourt family?

Too soon.

Too soon.

I went to see the Goncourt family before noon yesterday.

Old Prado should not have ended his long restful sleep immediately. I may have woken up and been surprised at how well I was feeling. But that could be early, yesterday afternoon, and even this morning.

In just half a day, is it something that I've never felt better about, and I wonder if I realize it's Edda's "recovery" that's causing it? And could it ever be that the extraordinary means of kidnapping would not resign, that we would look for a place to live in Lecan and Edda, that we would prepare ourselves, turn over the carriage and kidnap them?

In the first place, when you calm down and think about it, it's weird at any rate that the house hasn't been vandalized.

Edda, that's not a bad reflex nerve. Not bad, but pretty good.

I'm not the kind of woman who would be abducted without a fight at all, even if she was surprised. That's it, a single adventurer.

If so, it is still natural to assume that he left of his own free will. It's weirder to think of it as a kidnapping or something.

I'm putting away an important package, so I didn't leave. I ran errands. Something suddenly came up with an errand.

But what if they had assassination skills like Dobol and Gideau? There can be no such thing as being invaded, approached, and deprived of consciousness and body freedom without realizing it.

Besides, there are different kinds of favors and magic items in this world. There may be a grace that will stun people from a remote position. There may be a magic device that hides the intruder's appearance and sound.

What the hell should I think?

(Why am I so worried?

It's a totally reckless gesture, such as worrying about you.

Lecan's strength is not thought, but action.

Yet why is thought so grand?

(I'm upset... are you?

Recan closed his eyes and looked back at Edda.

The first encounter was far from a good impression. We were escorted together, and the useless were mirrored to the end.

The second time I saw him was in the town of Voca. I was suddenly stopped. I'm cold, but, uh, I've taught you you're magical.

That led to a third encounter. Edda came to Sheila's house looking for Lekan.

Then like a collapse, Edda was with Lekan. Sometimes, for some reason, Sheila was favored by Eda from the beginning, and Lekan was to teach Eda magic and take the request together.

He was an immature adventurer, but was surprised to find out he was fourteen years old later. If you can make all that movement at fourteen and use a magic bow, you can also say that you are rather extremely competent. He also had a magical talent. There was too much.

Fu and Lekan remembered what happened at Coggles.

Edda was eating sweets like a puffy and small animal, not even taking the unusual heavy pressures unleashed by those Zach Zykers and Dobol and the butlers in the reception room at the Zykers store headquarters. Looking at that, Lecan was comfortable.

On that occasion, if you're not such a livered adventurer, you shouldn't be able to atrophy and drink tea. But that doesn't seem like a good idea. That unattended young man is what makes him an adventurer. At that time, it may be said that Lekan recognized Edda as a companion.

Zach was impressed with Edda's guts, too. To Edda, Zach's intimidation didn't work. In a way, Edda is beating Zach then.

But was it really for the natural qualities that the behaved?

I see, Edda is naive and fearless. But was that all?

Maybe that's not all.

Edda trusted Lecan with all her heart. So on that occasion, oh, I sifted away. Rather, it was sweet on Lecan.

That's right.

I don't know when that started, but for some reason, Edda believed in Lecan. I trusted him unconditionally. I got to Lecan, I got to him.

Looking at the first escort, Lekan doesn't remember Eda pointing a malice or suspicion at him. Edda opened her heart to Lecan, whenever she wanted.

I wonder why.

I wonder why Edda believed in Lecan and tried to talk about Lecan.

I don't know that.

Lecan is not good at guessing other people's minds.

I don't like to guess a woman's mind.

I don't like to speculate on children's minds.

Edda combines the three. There's no way I can tell.

But there's no need to understand Edda's mind. The question is what Lekan himself thinks.

And Lekan is not offended by the trust Edda has placed in him. Rather, of course, I often think.

If so, isn't the story easy?

All you have to do is follow that heart.

In the first place, Lekan decided to protect Edda.

From the beginning, there was nothing to worry about.

If you went out spontaneously, or vacated the house due to some unavoidable circumstance, you'll be back any minute.

It's not, and if they took him away against their will, Edda is in a predicament now.

We should move assuming the worse.

Where's the most obnoxious part?

The Goncourt family.

Then you can go to the Goncourt family.

You can go and find out.

Until you defeat the one who interrupts you.

If there's a standing door, it's until it's broken.

If Edda isn't in the Goncourt family, you can look for the temple next.

That's how I'm looking for the Goncourt family and the temple. If Edda's coming back here safely, that's fine. There's nothing wrong with that.

Lecan opened his right eye and laughed.

It was a beast laugh.
