"Hmm. A girl called Reaper..."

Listening to Felix, Lassara felt that the anxiety she had felt vaguely since the outbreak of this war and the girl known as Reaper somehow overlapped. Hard to put into words. Still, if you dare to say so, such vague anxiety that envelops the entire Dubedilica continent in darkness.

As far as Lhasala, who lives for a long time of three hundred years, knew, there were about a few who were called by the alias of the reapers of the past. All of them showed unmatched martial arts on the battlefield, none other than because they terrorized their opponents. If you ask me, Reaper is a title allowed only to the mighty.

However, I feel that the girl who crowns Reaper this time is not like any of them. In the first place, Asura and the Bi-perfect Abyss (Shinbin and Shinbin) differ from the simple strong. And this unending anxiety.

I can't say much because it's actually just a story to tell, but Lhasara sees Asura and the Abyss as almost mutually reinforcing in their strength. Still, why Felix is maximizing his guard over the Reaper girl.

(Maybe the kid also instinctively feels the vague anxiety ahead of the reaper girl. A true strong man doesn't have the same ability to detect danger.)

Lhasala thought so as she stared at Felix, who had consolidated herself in her battle costume.

"For the Empire, Olivia Valedstorm is the biggest obstacle. If we don't stop her, we can't think of any continental reunification by the Empire."

Says Felix with a serious look. Continental unity is hampered by just one girl. You'll think it sounds like a big deal when someone else hears it. If it weren't for Lhasara and Felix's words, I might have attached it to a smile. Conversely, to that extent, I trusted this spiritual young man.

"Even that kid has to be cautious with the Abyss... wait a minute. Did I just say Olivia Valedstorm?

"Yes. I told you, what is it?

With Felix with a strange look on his side, Lhasara opens her mouth as she hands down the thread of her sedimentary memory.

"No, I remember the family name Valedstorm. Certainly in that book..."

Across the table placed in the center of the room, on one of the bookshelves arranged on the wall, Lhasara kneels her left hand. Without setting it apart, the katakata and the bookshelf begin to shake in small pieces, and one book is suddenly pulled out of the neatly lined books. The black fitted book was drawn to Lhasala's hand as she drifted through the air.

"─ The Dark Clan"

Felix peering in from the side reads out the title in depth of meaning. Lhasara turned the page early without worrying, and spoke to Felix as she ran her eyes.

"It was over 150 years ago. There is a suspicion among the Farnest kingdoms that the Valedstorms were known for their loyalty. After less than half a month, the Mansion was surrounded by troops of the Royal Army. Naturally, the Valedstorm family is cut off. It doesn't mean he disappeared from history."

Turning his eyes, Felix's well-shaped eyebrows were drawn to his eyebrows.

"A clan known for its loyalty kills them all without half a month. It sounds to me like a very uncomfortable story...... was that normal at the time?

"No, if you think normally, the kid's right. Perhaps the times themselves have held it back."

"Is the time holding you back? A hundred and fifty years ago, eight hundred years in the light and shade calendar...... I see. Is this the so-called Dark Age..."

Felix was silent.

Light Yin Calendar 800 's. Countries, except the Empire, were dawning into war as if they had been possessed by something. The earth always smells of death, and the weak cannot even speak of a piece of bread, and the lights of life are turned off early. That is no exception to the kingdom of Farnest, which is a great power. In fact, it seemed so distracting to Lhasala, who had lived at the time.

"─ But minus that, it's not normal to kill them all. What exactly were they charged with?

"Mm-hmm. That suspicion was seen as descendants of the Dark Clan, also the title of the book, a minority clan that plotted to overthrow the country with great combat ability in ancient times. By some snitch."

"Awesome combat ability in ancient times...... no way ⁉"

Lhasara looked and nodded at Felix with an invincible grin.

"Naturally, Asura's descendants would be pinned. Yes, the Dark Clan refers to the Ten and Eight Nine Abyss. It's not uncommon for a winner to denigrate a loser. The book states that there was no final evidence of a rebellion, but in the end, the suspicion itself was not wrong. Even if the Valedstorms didn't feel the slightest harm to the royal family."

"... and it was Asura who gave the snitch,"

Felix dropped a deep sigh and sat dokali in a nearby chair.

"That's for sure. It's a mystery that Asura somehow found out that he was the descendant of the Valedstorm family = (equals) Abyss people... but maybe some of the kids know what's going on around there."

"Nothing. I don't even think of them as companions."

Seeing Felix in flashes, Lhasala laughed bitterly at his detestation of the blood of the assassin that still flows through her body and of Ashura, who still makes assassination a business.

"Whatever, I don't know how much Asura was affecting the Farnest kingdom at the time. Still, he probably had enough influence to drive down the loyal thick Valedstorm family as usurpers. I don't think I'm going to listen to anyone who doesn't know what they're talking about."

It has more or less a dark part, no matter what country it is. Because it's also true that the country doesn't just walk away from every beauty. Asura is a rare group of assassins. I hear that it can never be taboo, and that is also the kind of work that has been involved in the survival of the country if it is exposed.

That is a testament to the firm trust that if you return the back, you will never divulge the information you have learned to the outside world. So I guess there was something their snitch couldn't ignore, Lhasala guessed.

"It's... it might be"

Felix had a bitter look on his face as if he remembered something.

"And by chance or inevitably. Olivia took over the disconnected Valedstorm family."

"Which do you think Lazara is?

"I think it's inevitable. I think it's just a coincidence because there's so much I can't do."

"I agree"

Felix nodded unmistakably.

"But that's not where you should be concerned. Problem is, this part of the house, wrapped in fireworks, bursting out of the windows of the mansion, popped a black mass."

Lassara slammed the open page in the back of her hand and poked it in front of Felix.

"Black chunks...... ha ⁉"

"That's right. The lad would have said in an earlier story. Olivia Valedstorm's black sword drifts black. I can't help but think these two are connected."

"... assuming it's tied, what does Lazara think?

Lhasara looks to Felix after stroking her jaw for a while.

"When I first heard the story, I thought Olivia was a magician."

"What? ⁉"

Lassara pushes Felix back forcefully trying to get up from the surprise chair. To Felix, who turns a blind eye to something, Lassara continues her conversation by taking control of her desk.

"You're a nasty kid. Listen to me till the end. That's what I thought at first, but I'm not sure. Though it is difficult to linguize because of the senses. ─ ─ In fact, isn't Olivia using magic in her battle against the Empire?

"Yes, if you use it, it should always go up to the report."

Felix nodded hard just saying it was natural. Then I suppose to put the story aside once again, and I told him my thoughts and made him listen.

"I said earlier that black lumps and black lumps are bound together. Isn't that right?

"That's what Lazara did say."

"Bye. Though I tie the knot, I actually think it is something similar and non-existent. You know the difference between a sword used on the battlefield and a sword used for rituals?

When I ask him, thinking he was a bad explainer, Advice Felix returns an ambiguous reply.

"From here, I want you to think it's just my imagination."

Lhasala breathes once and spins her words again.

"The crest of the Valedstorm family, reminiscent of the Reapers, and the pitch-black sword that drifts black. And a mysterious black chunk that flew out the window of a burning mansion. Together, there may be something beyond the knowledge behind the Valedstorm family."

Lhasara thought it might be the culprit who stirred up years of anxiety as she said it.

"I don't think so, but does Lazara even want to say that a real reaper exists?

Felix's tone gave me a glimpse of an emotion that was obviously frightening.

"Then ask the other way. Where does the rationale for not being here come from?

"Reapers from everywhere and everywhere are imaginary products."

Whereas Felix raised the edge of his mouth slightly, Lhasara openly laughs and responds with her nose. And I pointed my finger at the open door.

"Then I ask again. How do you explain the fairy Silky Air? The kid treats it like it's normal, and in the alley, it's an imaginary creature."

…………

"In addition, some of the dogs worship them as gods and beasts. Now it has almost faded away, but I hear that in ancient times those with power were the norm. It is no exception with Asura or the Abyss. If Reaper ever existed, it wouldn't be so strange."

"... now you don't have enough ingredients to argue"

Felix brought it to the chair like he was tired, leaking a self-derisive grin.

"I said scattered reaper, but I just conveniently call it that because I don't have any other words to describe it. I think civilization has progressed, but at the price of it, we may have lost the power that we all had."

All of them may lose their power themselves. The number of magicians is now drastically decreasing compared to what it used to be, and is being spoken of in alleys as imaginary. But I didn't think Lassara was sad about it. All remains the course of time.

(In the case of dead trees extended to extension by the Law of Life Extension, this life will be about to run out. What can I leave behind for this young man...)

Lassara kept staring at Felix's beautiful face, who lowered her lid and shut her mouth.
