Chapter III: 71: The Girl in the Forbidden Library

"Hey, Subaru. What the hell was that?

"You don't have to worry about that. Yeah, it's a long greeting to my local area, 'cause that smile, it's as nice as I want to lick it'."

"Then don't say it again, okay?

"It's surprisingly spicy!

Welcome back, and a small exchange after Emilia smiled at me.

Such a cool Emilia smile that pushes together negative emotions such as anxiety and haste that were standing in Subaru's mind, like a blossoming flower.

In contrast, I'm thrilled that I can't help it anymore, trying to make the softer grin I can and say back, "I'm home,"

"Torah"

"Huh?"

And it was the backdrop of the matter that bit me all over.

I'm so ashamed on top of pity, I can't even think of telling the truth very much.

Misleading with a proper light mouth, it was spattered and cut off and dented, while Subaru searched the mansion with Emilia for the appearance of Ram - though the figure of the maid he sought was found only minutes after he began to look.

"Oh, that was faster than I thought."

Saying, a ram sitting badly on the front hall stairs is looking up at this one.

Far from its obedience, Subaru sighs lightly at her majesty, which at last does not break the mansion's Lord's familiar attitude.

"Your goin 'my way. I'd be surprised if it was a servant too. I'm gonna be selfish there too, but you're gonna lose straight without judgment."

"Whatever it is, it feels good to win, lay low, Balls. - So, did the discussion come together?

Inquiry into Emilia walking to Subaru in the first half and behind Subaru in the second half.

Emilia nodded small, "Yes," to Ram's question.

"Because, roughly speaking, Subaru told me. - Mr. Krush's men and those hired by Mr. Anastasia are coming to the village. Subaru hired some other pedestrians to get away with it, right?

"Oh. Traffickers' dragon cars can be boarded by all the villagers, and many of the products they're boarding are likely to be food in evacuation. Was that a good idea?

"I honestly admire Ram for being a balus. Rejoice."

"I'm not happy, not the way they say it!

Whatever Ram's reaction to putting himself in a high position is worth the exchange in the previous room and the way Emilia takes it to Subaru's suggestion is smooth.

I think she would have liked to open up the situation with her own hands, too, if it had been

"If you just stick to it and overlook the important things, you'll end up falling. I'm fine, I don't have to look so worried with my eyes"

"I'm not worried or anything. Because it conveys trust in me from the hand I'm holding..."

"Oh, I'm sorry, keep gripping. I thought you were interrupting."

The extra remark reminded me that the hand that had been connected so far without any obstacles was unraveled. "Ah," a feminine voice goes up, but it's too late.

I lifted my hand up in front of my face that had been untied, and left Subaru with regrets for his silence,

"So, Ram. I'd like to evacuate the villagers... where do you think we should head? The truth is, I know I have to judge."

"Master Emilia doesn't have a land survey, so I won't say I can't. If Lamb will allow his opinion... may I go to the sanctuary to which Lord Roswar turned?"

"Sanctuary...... looks safe there?

"I can't say for sure, but we have Roswar, and he's wacky, but he's defensive. It would be much more certain than to cage here."

To Ram's suggestion Emilia attaches her fingers to her lips as she envisions them. face from next to her like that, Subaru prefaced "in the first place," and spoke to the ram,

"Hey, listen, where's the sanctuary that Roz-Chi headed? There's a lot of patterns that come up with names I've heard a few times... but I don't know that, and I just can't judge you, either, huh?

"The judgment is made by Emilia. It's also a harsh story that Balth needs to worry... But Ram doesn't have the authority to tell Balth that either. Don't worry, Mr. Roswar has not forgiven you."

"With Roz's permission..."

Ram is unresponsive to Subaru narrowing his eyes. Deciding it impossible to hear any more from that attitude, Subaru recalls the information he has heard so far about the sanctuary.

Even so, there is not so much information on this. It is where Roswar is headed, where there are leading players in the realm, and according to what I've heard, where defensive forces exist besides Roswar.

"You can ask about the distance and if it's friendly with us, right? It's a rule of thumb, that's all."

"- Approximately, if it's a dragon car, it's like eight hours. Since we are in a cooperative relationship with Master Roswar, it is natural not to be hostile. Just."

Lamb, who was fluent in answering Subaru's question, but cut the words slightly there, rarely makes her a slight bite in the lips and peek into hesitation. Subaru frowned in surprise at the way it looked, but Emilia guessed more clearly what the reaction meant.

"Worried that half an elf might not be welcome, huh?

"I don't want to say anything that would burden Emilia, but you're right. The sanctuary is full of wacky things, so I don't know how conspicuous it is to be a half elf in it...... I can't say for sure"

It also leaves here, the question of contempt for half an elf.

Subaru's frustration is the limit to that problem that stands in the way of anywhere. but such a Subaru belly worm. Emilia gently pulled her jaw,

"I know what you're doing. I don't know what else to do. If you don't have a problem with me, can you evacuate the villagers to the sanctuary?

"Nor should our lord, Lord Roswar, wish to treat the inhabitants unhindered. In that regard, we can certainly trust Garfield, the representative of the sanctuary"

Emilia turns a blind eye to the answer to which she sees a definite trust. Then she glanced softly at Subaru, pushing with anger,

"Does Subaru have any other good ideas?

"And you are. The sanctuary is eight hours away, so if it's safe... I wonder if you need a different route."

Worst of all, I thought it was one idea to return to the King's Capital if you seemed to have trouble getting to a place of refuge. The status quo is accompanied by the crusade of the white whale, which allows for the passage of Reefaus Street.

If it's a dragon car, we'll do everything we can to get to Wangdu for half a day. Because of the large number of women, children and old people, there will be a little bit of time L.A. to take that into account, but still it won't take a whole day.

It is also possible to rendezvous with Krusch, who should have returned, or with the lem accompanying it, and measures against witchcraft are easy to stand just in the same direction. As allies, there was also the idea that Kursch and Emilia should talk face to face exactly.

"But, well, there's a lot of risk to this."

First, the distance is farther than where it is called sanctuary.

As it stands, I want to avoid traveling as long as I can, beyond remaining anxious, including the unknown about my strength. If it's more than half a day and four and a half, it's Better to pick the latter.

Secondly, if the distance opens, it will take time to return to Mazers territory as it is. More than the threat of witchcraft remains, we have to accompany the crusaders until we evacuate Emilia and the others to a safe place. There is no denying the increased likelihood of escape over time, even as we try to return after delivery and hunt out the remnants of witchcraft.

And thirdly, is the safety of Reefaus Street really ensured?

Once, Subaru encountered a white whale in the previous loop and survived without dying, albeit with life. At that time, Otto, the pedestrian accompanying him, shook Subaru off the dragon car, through the fog and seemed to have succeeded in escaping - or something.

but in fact, afterwards, apparently he was being attacked by witchcraft and taking the lives he had picked up. At that time, the place was just ahead of us through Reefaus Avenue and into Mazers territory.

Subaru thinks there was some witchcraft watching the fog exit.

I haven't come across it this time, but that's probably a missed form because this time, at the time I went through that place, this one had outnumbered that one.

But if you bring back a large number of non-combatants, how likely would you still be to miss them? Not to mention their purpose, take them all the way to Emilia.

"When you think about it, you don't even have to think about it, this is it."

"I mean, do you think Subaru should go to the sanctuary, too?

"That's the best we can do. Roz, if we could talk about this, we could say something a little more constructive, because we don't want to burden the villagers with moving around."

At least, it's hard to get on with the fact that I don't see the whole situation in the realm. It is also not clear what stance Roswar intends to challenge with regard to the King's race.

Even the part where Emilia was alone and so diligently distressed, she sees the influence of Roswar's way of speaking, lacking specificity around it.

"I mean, when I put it all together, I'm gonna give that good guy a bite."

"I was going to talk about where I was going to run... how did that happen?

"I had to do that when I was packing all the details myself. You mean, in fact, if he spoke to me using a few more plain words, you wouldn't have had a problem with it, would you? Because this is the smart guy..."

Expect the opponent to have just the same amount of arithmetic ability for his head to spin fast. It's a common way of thinking in the genius type. Even though the average person who is late for the circumference will follow.

Whatever.

"The destination is decided, the location is Ram knows. We should leave as soon as we're ready. Is it going to take time or something?

"Because I have nothing in particular to bring up. The ram..."

"There are many tea leaves and precious items that I want to bring out, but I often give up because the end of something with a sticking skin of greed is impossible. We have packed some necessary paperwork and clothing, so whenever."

I can see the bag placed beside the stairs at the tip indicated by the ram with his hand at Subaru's inquiry. Apparently, the packing is already done, and the rum's foresight just wraps his tongue around it.

"I just thought it would take a while for a girl to be up to herself, but it's nice! So, you don't forget your ledger or your seal, do you? Go straight to the village, if you like."

"Twocho?"

"Incan?"

Emilia and Lamb take it all together, float a question mark and tilt their necks nicely, then Subaru looks up the mansion's upstairs.

I guess the two of them who followed that gaze in the same way noticed what Subaru was looking at. When you open your lips awkwardly,

"I'm sorry, Subaru. We don't know where Beatrice is. I haven't seen him since I got back from King's Landing."

"Correctly, I haven't seen your faces since the day Roswar and the others left for King's Capital... Because you will not come to the call for a meal, nor to the call of the Great Spirit"

"Bear kid ignores the pack, that's not normal."

In response to the two remarks, Subaru wonders what's wrong with him as he touches his jaw. but as soon as I think back on previous world events and it seems silly to worry too, I give up thinking.

slap your cheeks with both hands, and clear your consciousness with a thirsty sound,

"Bear, I'll take the kids, so you two go to the village first. Mr. Kursch, this Ferris, Mr. Wilhelm and... there's a Mercenary Yuri in the stream, so if you join them, the conversation should move on. Drill, I'll take care of Lori."

"Are you confident you can find it?

"Not that I'm confident... he doesn't seem to run away from me, that's what I feel. Maybe you love me."

"That's what I used to say in front of that hard guy."

Emilia laughs small at Subaru's answer, and Ram laughs with her nose "ha" as usual. shrugged his shoulders to those two, "Njama" and Subaru twirled on the spot and stepped out to the upper floor,

"What's so effective about pulling a pull outside? Look at my M.O. for ex-pull."

"Oh, that's crazy!?

And, although it would be nice to have come out with a big deal, the search for Beatrice, who ran out confidently, was well difficult to navigate.

Usually, if Subaru goes to call Beatrice for mealtimes or something, it is usually the door that leads to the forbidden library where Beatrice is located if the first door is opened. When I opened the dining room door because I wanted to call from the dining room, such as in the early days, it was a forbidden library.

The magic of Beatrice, known as' crossing the door ', seems to be the magic of a spatial transfer system that is too expensive for Subaru to understand but uses shady magic.

Beatrice, a toddler girl but an excellent user of shady magic, is using that door crossing to randomly move his castle, a forbidden library, into the mansion, always making the mean transition of basically having only one door for the right answer.

Breaking down that characteristic of her was the unique characteristic of a human being who, for some reason, could not read the air pulling the right answer in one shot, which Subaru named 'Breaking the Door' on his own.

"Come here. That doesn't work. That's not a level of shame. Emilia, I couldn't find you with this when you slapped your mouth just like that - or Tehepero, please, Oi."

Saying, Subaru pushes one building door after another for servants. Already after all the rooms in the first central building had already been opened up, I wasted some cool stuff as a loss of time. It's the first time I've had such a hard time finding Beatrice, and I can't stand the nasty sweat on my forehead even as I slap a light mouth.

Nevertheless, we are not continuing our search for Beatrice without any basis whatsoever for Subaru or anything. Only if there is certainty that she will remain in the mansion.

Beatrice was certainly in this place when Subaru arrived one more day late at the Mansion in the previous world. Subaru didn't have a busy conversation because he stayed pushed away by the situation at that time.

"There's plenty of time. This time, we all felt a little bit, but we could afford it. Bear will listen to you for a little while..."

I'm not all that optimistic, but I still can't keep this lonely task quiet if I'm not saying so. Anyway, it's disappointing to even open and close the door inside a mansion where no one else is, because he's totally pathetic from the side.

"Damn, I can't find you! Yabe! Time! No more of this, or should I give up and throw it out and get away with it! Emilia, it hurts my conscience to think of the look of trust in Tan, but I can't help but be there too! Everyone had an excuse that Bear had a stomachache and didn't come out of the bathroom, so she gave up and went back..."

"- Can't you come up with a better excuse, you!?

There was a sudden penetration from beyond the open door into his remarks as he said a bump and scratched his head.

A bunch of paper in front of you, in a room that is supposed to be a toilet, for a different purpose than wiping your butt there - that is, turning into a library filled tightly with books.

The familiar library, the first encounter in a long time, and the girl in the luxurious dress, the keeper of that room, were on the front, as usual.

I entered the door of the room and there was a wooden stepladder set up straight across the street, with a girl sitting down on the foot of that stepladder and opening a thick book.

"Bear, you found me safely in the bathroom - you didn't throw away my account, either."

"I wonder if I just felt sorry for you not to give up after taking all that off. In Betty's honor, I thought I'd have trouble getting you to listen to something weird."

"Mind your own business! Everybody poops, and sometimes I have a stomachache and I don't even want to respond because of an emergency! I'm sorry I said all those insensitive things when I was sudden, sorry!

"I wonder if what you're saying right now was the most insensitive thing in the world!

Beatrice gets up from the stepladder and gets puffy and angry at things like no rage. Subaru waved lightly at the girl as she roughed the vertical roll, "Bad bad,"

"Anyway, it's been a long time. I was just looking around the mansion because you didn't really open your mind."

"... this is what it's supposed to be like when you're not distracted. You wouldn't have let me in here if it was true."

"You're not convincing me at the time you let me in like this! Tundele B!"

"I have to get in. You could have just drowned a blackmail scandal!

After yelling at her, Beatrice immediately gave an awkward look to shame her words and actions. loosening the edge of her mouth at the way she was about to change, Subaru walked over to you,

"That's better than seeing you. I'm sorry about earlier, but can I get you ready to go out or something? Hey, there's a problem staying in the mansion..."

"Betty's not going anywhere."

"Ah?"

Subaru's foot stops at Beatrice's word to break the proposal off immediately.

If you look up at her, she looks up at such Subaru's disgusted face with exhalation,

"No Betty, I said. I don't know if I'm going to leave this forbidden library, let alone the mansion. That's all you need to remember and get out of here."

"Wait, you just don't see the situation. You can't stay here. 'Cause it's dangerous, come with me. Explain it from scratch!

"Even if they don't explain it, you know what I mean. And stop treating them like children."

Slightly glancing at Subaru, Beatrice reaches into the bookcase and pulls out a book that looks like a drawing that is too big for her hand, holding it back to her stepladder as usual. Sitting, opening it on her lap, she was as usual, and it seemed like she wasn't seriously going to evacuate.

"Hey, I'm not done talking to you. I'm not in the mood for this."

"I wonder if there's any more talk from Betty. You just want to keep going on your own, and continuing won't change Betty's conclusion. Wasn't it with you that you couldn't waste time?

"Gu... if you know that much, cooperate. Me, I'll take you. You, you'll be taken by me. Okay?"

"I refuse. Together, whoever comes. - Well, whoever comes, I don't know if I'll let you step into this forbidden library."

With his eyes dropped on the book, Beatrice says it out strongly in a quiet tone.

scratching her head at that stubborn attitude, Subaru sighed,

"Ready? It's not like I'm just noisy to be here, or just a rum to bring rice. I hate to say it, but the witchcraft guys are coming. Their lack of prospects isn't half as good. You're still in the mansion..."

"I should have shown you the power to cross the door. If anyone still wants to step in... Betty won't forgive me."

"-"

For a moment, signs of swordswallowing overflowed from Beatrice, and it stroked Subaru's back cold.

Breathtaking, I realize that what's now is the aftermath of the magic that erupted from all over her body.

It turns out that that vast runoff of mana is extrajudicial, even for Subaru, who has touched people who handle magic just by touching it,

"- Still, I'm taking you."

"That's still happening..."

"I'm not talking about you being strong or not! You're a girl, you're small, that's all you need! You don't need another reason why I don't want to leave you in danger!

Subaru screams as he steps on the ground of the library, albeit under pressure from the force.

Beatrice opened her eyes to her surprise when she stepped forward, and then closed her eyes as if she were in pain.

Subaru frowned at the look of it, on the verge of trying to get close to taking him out anyway,

"Betty, I'm not going with you. I want you to stop confusing me."

"I'm not wrong. You're wrong. - That's my answer."

"I wonder if it's strong. - I don't like that."

Boosh, and Beatrice groans a little about something. I couldn't hear it. Subaru opens his mouth to hear it back, but before that, Beatrice rises from the stepladder,

"See, I'm a loser. You're right. I'll do it."

"Oh? Oh, that's fine. If you know what I mean, that's fine. For a moment, you stood up and thought you'd be blown away by magic."

"Betty makes it easier to just leave your shadow behind and wipe it out of the world... but you can't be cruel enough to do that."

Instead, making a fearful statement, Beatrice returns the extracted book to the bookcase. And, being caught up in her movements doing so, Fu Subaru raised his eyebrows when he had noticed. He would accompany me, he might have been relaxed by Beatrice's remarks. Just a thought,

"No, there are a lot of books here, but you're a little familiar with non-iloha characters?

"I was suddenly wondering what to say... I wonder if Iroha is talking about letters (a) or something. If I told the experts, they'd call me angry."

"Aye, sorry, sorry. So, here's the thing..."

Lovingly laughing at Beatrice, who stares at me with his eyes, Subaru pulls out a book as he explores his nostalgia. It is a black fitted book, the contents of which are...

"It's this guy, but I don't really recognize the letter inside. I thought you might know something..."

"- How could you possibly have it now?

Cover the lid with Subaru's words so that a stiff voice can block it.

Seeing it, Beatrice was gazing at the 'gospel' that opened its big eyes even wider and made it Subaru's hand.

At the turn of that attitude, Subaru is more surprised that he took the conversation with ease.

"Why do you have it now? Answer me."

"I really fucked up too...... I took it up, from a witchcraft asshole. I thought you might have some tips because you took care of yourself for the rest of your life."

"Taken away? From witchcraft? More than that, you..."

Beatrice's complexion changes with her hands on her forehead and her shoulders shaking faintly. Subaru is bewildered by the girl who causes more blood loss from her white face and wanders her gaze.

It's like reaching out unexpectedly to a modulation that could even fall in right now,

"Oh, come on, are you okay? Don't push me if I'm not feeling well..."

"Betty can't... bye. But I can't believe I let this guy have it... Has Roswar ever...?

"Hey? I'm sorry about the serious look on your face, but listen to me.

"I'm just thinking, I'll just be a minute."

Beatrice stares at Subaru, worried about him, and shuts up. Shut up Subaru shuts his mouth and observes Beatrice changing his expression by meditating in front of him.

I don't seem to be responding for a while, so I open the gospel in my hand shabby and, as usual, turn a page with no idea what it is about.

And then I realized.

"You're blank in the second half of this book....... but did you just have a page like this?

The fact that the contents consist of illegible characters is the same as if the second half of the book had fallen apart softly. but I don't feel like there are more statements on the last print page that weren't there until just now.

It's a book of illegible content. It's my fault, if I say so.

"- What do you want to do with the book?

and the sudden inquiry of Beatrice, who had been silent until then.

With his hands on his mouth, Beatrice had been asking Subaru that question about how he saw the settlement of his thoughts. Take it, Subaru said, "I don't care what they say..." Then

"Decrypting the contents...... even though I'm not interested in the doctrine of witchcraft or anything, I want to know if there's any information that I can get purely. Otherwise, I don't want to have a book whose owner was creepy."

"... at least Betty can't read it. But if you don't want to have it, you can keep it."

"Deposit?"

"It's a book I don't know about, and I wonder if the owner of the book I don't know took care of. If you have any resistance, Betty will take it back."

Best of all, Beatrice, I'm going to give you a hand here.

From that trick comes at least that she doesn't crave this book. I guess it's not a statement of ideas like reselling and making a lot of money.

Statements from good intentions. And from what she said just now, she understands that this book is at least gospel. Therefore,

"I'm sorry, but that proposal is dismissed"

Hold the hand offered gently from the top, Subaru ran out of words.

In that Subaru word Beatrice blinked her eyes only for a moment, and soon turned that adorable face into a harsh one,

"Hey, I wonder why. Even you should have an intuition that it's not good. At least you know it doesn't attract good stuff. Then it's better for Betty than having her own..."

"That's what they want me to do, because I'm a heavenly demon physique who doesn't want to give you anything else I don't even need... That's pre built. To be honest, that's why."

Apparently, the significance this book, called the Gospel, has for the followers of witchcraft. Not to mention that the bearers of this Gospel belong to Petergius, who also hits executives in witchcraft.

How obsessed that man was with this book is new to my memory. The current situation, which is depriving him of the means to secure his identity and resist it, remains vigilant.

"It's a book my fearful uncle might covet and take back, huh? It's a boy's job to let a toddler have it because he doesn't have it."

"- Eh."

"If it's dangerous, I'll keep it. I've come to get you out of here somewhere safe, haven't I? It's a good place to go out of your way to risk it. Please don't make me a flirt."

Laughing lightly, Subaru becomes nostalgic as he hides the Gospel from Beatrice's gaze. I wonder what Beatrice thought after seeing that series of motions.

She blinked only once, then opened her lips trying to say something -,

"-"

Quickly, he shut his mouth and turned away without being able to say anything.

Subaru can't encourage ahead on the side that refuses to pursue her, even though she feels unnatural about how she is. So I rattled my neck bones to change the story,

"Uh, well, fine. Anyway, if you decide to move, do me a favor. I have trouble with it being too big a package, but you can have a couple of important books or so. And don't think you should have two or three extravagant dresses for that waste."

"... the library will follow on its own if Betty moves. I wonder if the other two in the mansion could have persuaded you."

"Wow, you heard a convenient story. And I'm ready to convince you both. You're the last of the guys here. We're all evacuated to the sanctuary where Roswar is."

"Roswar, I wonder.... I wonder what happened to the maid's sister you went with."

To the lid, it was about Lem that Beatrice talked about.

It was surprising that the Lem thing would be the subject of discussion from her mouth, and Subaru raised his eyebrows and expressed his surprise lightly. Then I loosened my mouth to see if it was a good trend,

"If you're Rem, you're now leaving a message in the King's Capital. Give me a break for some big fishing on the way back. It's too big for you, and you're supposed to be taking it home and giving it a luxurious look. When we're all done, let's just say we're all going to have you."

"Much happier to talk to you. - I wonder what's going on."

"Ugh."

Subaru is undeniably overreacting to Rem's name and feeling slightly quicker. Beatrice's sharp pointer stung her star and stuck her breath, turning her face away whistling,

"Hey, it's nothing, right?

"I wonder if it's weirder to be treated like that and not have feelings. Betty won't talk about it, so you're on your own."

"Or you're not going to hide it, are you? It's just that all of a sudden you have the courage to report it to Emilia Tan or her real sister... strategic withdrawal"

Pointing his fingers at you feeling slightly weak, Subaru leans down against Beatrice in disgrace.

The fact that the situation is a situation also has a lot to do with it, and the fact that you don't actually have the courage to report it all of a sudden. Emilia also suddenly said, 'I'll get you and Rem!' Or even if it were declared, it would be water in your sleeping ear. I've already made up my mind.

"It's good to have goals high. There is also tension to try. I don't basically hate hard work. I just haven't even had a goal before - whoa!

My mouth, which was trying to exalt itself by causing me to solicit excuses, stops without feeling the feeling of a pretense.

Behind me, what I feel on my back side is a warm sensation, embraced in the form of arms turning from the back to my hips. Small, thin arms are turning toward your belly, and you know who your natural opponent is.

Beatrice.

"What, Bear boy, I was surprised. Stop suddenly, please."

"I wonder if that reaction is really upsetting. - But it's enough."

"What?"

Immediately after tilting his neck to an unexpected word, a bright light burns his lid on his lid.

faster than realizing that that was the result of the entrance door being opened alone,

"Goodbye -"

"Ugh!?

The arm that had been turned to hold him is released and pushed thoughtfully by a strong sense of compression from his back. You can't even resist, and your body moves forward to get forward and relax.

Keep going, jump into the door so you can get sucked in -,

"Beatrice -!"

"Betty... we can't go together."

He turned himself around and glanced into the room just before knocking on the door.

The girl, barely reflected in her sight, had a large tear in her eyes,

――――

My vision distorts while I can't put it into words. Flesh is caught in the distortion of space, and the body walks on the path that can't possibly be, and the connection to the forbidden library is broken.

As it was, Subaru's flesh was ejected from the forbidden library space and disappeared somewhere far away.

"- Come on."

Looking at it, Beatrice slowly closes the door herself, which was open and loose.

There was a sound of the air being cut off, and when it was deeply silent, it descended again into the forbidden library.

- Mother.

With a small, crying voice, Beatrice calls the name.

Large grains of tears have already disappeared from those eyes, and yet the expression alone remains unchanged.

"Betty is... how much more..."

Beatrice, who is about to cry down, walks over to the stepladder and deposits her weight on it so that she falls into it. And he stretches out his arm, opposite the stepladder - always pulling out the book he was putting on and scratching from the foot opposite her sitting foot.

"Mother... Mother... Mother...!

Like a lost child, with a book in his chest, Beatrice's voice continues to sound like a sob in a quiet forbidden library.

The black fitted book held in her arms answered nothing to her.
