Reincarnation Monarch
Episode One Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty Four: Contacting the Illis
"Elle, did you show up here because of what Illis said?
Astalot said to Elle, shrinking in awe, pasting a gruesome thin laugh on his cheek.
Elle shook her body lightly and replied with her head hanging without looking at each other.
"... Yes. As you guessed."
"Yes. After all, Illis is... okay"
When Astalot was so alone, he gazed at the pitch-black wall behind El.
"... do you ever say that Illis is watching too?
To Astalot's question, Elle answered in a hurry with his head up.
"No, I didn't think so..."
"Yes. Well, I guess so. Wouldn't you like to go out again on your own more than I sent you here?"
"Yes, perhaps..."
Astalot laughed because Elle said it in a way that included.
"Right. I don't know what to do because I suddenly change my mind about Illis."
Elle replied, sweating on her forehead, stifling her face.
"... is... no, not from me..."
Then Astalot just laughed.
"That's tough, you too. I know you haven't seen Illis, but it would be tough in case you did. That's the answer, isn't it?"
Elle had trouble responding and pressed silently.
Astalot had a sarcastic grin on his mouth.
"But can we get in touch soon?
Elle didn't know what Astalot meant for a moment and tilted his neck.
But I immediately thought of it and responded in a hurry.
"... Ah, yes. If there's anything I can do for you, I'll be responsible for contacting Lord Iris?
Then Astalot turned his right hand palm to Elle.
"No. It's fine now. I just wanted to see if I could get in touch right away."
"Does it seem...... Well, if there's anything I can do for you, tell me."
"Oh. I'll let you do that."
Astalot said that, he saw the wall behind El again.
And when I slowly turned my gaze back on Elle, I changed the conversation.
"Elle, you were close to Gaius, weren't you?
Elle did not break his frightened look and answered.
"Yes, this is the first time I've known him in my life... do you mean to be close... we have a lot of relationships"
And Astalot smiled, and said unto him,
"Sounds like it. I need to ask you something about Gaius Schneider."
