“Purpose?”

Isaac didn't even talk back.

The red eyes of the crow stare quietly ahead.

It's empty.

The doll's gaze stopped as it rolled into the air like a slow wheel.

On a whitewashed manuscript.

I also looked at the manuscript in my hand. With Isaac's eyes and silence in the background,

I cleared my mind.

The clue is tilted in one place.

Elevated wisdom stats.

The plaintiff holds Ashton's power. What I did in the grave.

Even when you see the words "hole in the heavens," it is likely that they will not be separated from Ashton.

And here he is, the great sorcerer trapped in time. Part of some kind of guide.

Not a protruding coincidence.

Draw dots, draw lines.

The moment the plaintiff turned white, one

I feel like I've gone around the pole.

“I'm Kevin Ashton. You mean you planned to raise a skeleton? ”

But...

Questions eventually come together.

“But why? ”

Rubia looks at me and says, That's exactly the question I had.

I looked at Isaac, who was silent, and asked.

“Any guesses? ”

Premature guesswork makes your own decisions.

It's just a blur. Let's get out of here. Protection is ending.

Already?

'Already.'

The crow taps the window with his beak.

Starlight has drawn a long trail. It was night.

< This girl will also have a schedule. By now, the Humans will be wondering where they are and what they're doing.

You're right.

If she has taken over the Erasts this far, it is likely that her daily work will be endlessly packed.

“I'm fine.

Rubia smiles slightly.

It was not only peace in my memory, but I was sorry to look at you with thankful eyes.

“No, we're too close. ”

I shook my hands as if I was bouncing my eyes.

Rubia sighs a small, unfortunate sigh. Warmth spread lightly through the library.

“I'd like to go with you, but what I'm doing here will help Skeletons, right? ”

“Come back before the Emperor arrives. ”

Three months later.

We'll have plenty until then.

“I'm going to make a good situation here. ”

“Good situation? ”

“Well, what if you could eliminate the competition at any time? The tournament you mentioned.”

< That's good. We'd better clean it up in front of everyone. Is he communicating?

I looked at Holgit Rubia.

She looks at the book in my hand and asks, instead of responding to Isaac's words.

“You. You want to kill Trolls? That's Kevin Ashton, right? ”

You nod and reach out the book before her eyes.

“Take it.”

“Really?"

“I took it out to leave it in the first place. I'd love it if you read it to me. ”

Rubia looks like she found gold coins on the road.

“Thank you!”

Kevin Ashton's favorite writer.

So much for stacking books, busy schedules, and once a day it's a good idea for her to stop by the library.

It will be a gift.

“Ask Lord T&T, Lord Grasmear, or Yube there for help if something is urgent. ”

Yube's pseudonym and the existence of his inn also taught Rubia.

Lord Lena's T&T and Lord Grasmear's life debt will also move on to my story.

But I feel anxious.

“And...

One more thing.

How to open a secret passageway.

“Isaac, how do you open this passageway? ”

< Why is that?

“Maybe Rubia will have something to write about.

Isaac glances at Rubia and says,

< You better not teach me!

What's that supposed to mean?

“If you are in danger, you must flee here.

Wouldn't he? ”

But Isaac shakes his head as if he heard a strange sound.

If you can escape from here with the help of < T&T, Lord Grasmear and Yube, you should assume that the ghost has already intervened. More than that. >

You don't even know if it's stuck behind you. In such situations, the passageway

If he finds out, he's gonna come down here and ask me a lot of questions.

I drew a picture at once.

I didn't have to tell him how to ask.

I'm not dealing with my uncle anymore.

“I think the same thing. If it's an important secret, I can't endure torture. I don't want to put the secret passageway in danger because of me. ”

You nod, seeing Rubia speaking clearly.

“Next time, then. Let's see.”

As soon as she finished her slow talk, she reached out and grabbed her waist.

“All of a sudden...

< Heheh. Suddenly nothing. This is what you do when you break up. Pretending to be embarrassed. >

I couldn't even hear the raven's nagging.

I can feel the warmth behind the cold armor. I felt guilty about the feeling of stealing the warmth of the living. Nevertheless, he could not take her away without desperation.

It was in my arms.

It seemed like the silence that had settled in my mind was shaking.

Pod 'Duck!

Leaving me stiffened, Isaac begins to fly away and open a secret passageway.

“Be sure to come back safe. I'm going to be doing just fine.” Rubia smiles vigorously.

The crisp look, the moist, radiant eyes somewhere in the mind.

Kugu...!

Is the job done?

As it gets dark around you, there is a small gap back on the floor.

< Need more time? If you don't want to break up now, let's take her. You said that before. >

Isaac glances at me, standing beside the passageway.

It's hard to tell if you're telling the truth, but you can't accept it.

“No. Let's go down. ”

< It's okay to put up a puppet. It's fun to rule behind a veil.

I didn't have to answer.

Target just cleared the scenario.

I am not confident that the way I treated her is more than a doll. Smurfintine repels his guilt and turns away.

“Where is Eublam headed? ”

Isaac looked at me as if he were interesting.

< You're not taking care of the League of Merchants first? The smuggling sites they're supposed to meet are a little different from Yuvlam's.

“No, before that, around Eublam,

I have an opponent to meet. ”

Who has three books on Ashton.

I came up with a clue from the Erast Library.

We have met primarily from a hostile standpoint so far, but there is no reason not to try to recruit.

I thought you said you were looking for a third path, not a Human or a Demon King.

He must be wandering around wondering what path will save him.

Perhaps I can offer you the options Slime seeks.

Is it related to Kevin Ashton?

Suddenly, Isaac's words stop thinking.

< Surprised by what? If it comes to mind after visiting the Erast Library, it's obvious.

And so is Rubia.

Isaac takes it even further.

It felt like my thoughts were floating in the air easily.

“Somewhat. I have three of his books. ”

< Funny. Let me introduce you to how cute she is.

“First of all, there's no gender. ”

No, you have to say you can respond to any one of them if you need to.

When I told him this, Isaac was very happy.

That's why I like Slime. They're too close to be destroyed?

Too bad.

Unlike Isaac, he's absolutely right.

He also has excellent insight into the situation.

The ability to examine objects in detail and the deformation of the body itself is freedom.

The only thing that changes is my body.

Vibrio, who possesses the power of his stature, is also a "thing."

In addition to my body, the human flesh or bone can melt easily as if it had never existed from the beginning.

That trait could infiltrate anywhere and make you the best scout. It is gentle and not exhausting in character. If only I could spare him.

It's hard to imagine how much help it would be.

Here.

Isaac stands in front of the passageway and unseals the veil.

'Breathe...'

Cough...

The ceiling is open.

It was about two meters in diameter.

“Resistance?”

There is no human intelligence except right now. You set foot in the darkness.

Every step was a thick pile of cloudy dust.

< Heavy. It's been piled up and up for a long time. There are many places like this in the old castle.

“Abandoned. Space? ”

Isaac nods.

A few large oak barrels climb up past the rotting warehouse.

You walk towards the direction you feel the human spirit.

Twelve.

In the form that the guards are placed. “It's close to the Lord's residence.

“Ahhhh…

You pass through the yawning guards and easily make your way to the lord's bedroom.

I have already visited immunity.

The Viceroy dragged the opium addicts to the dungeon.

Lord Eublam, who was killed by the guard commander and thrown outside the walls, was slowly handing over the ledger with a gold bracelet on his thick wrist.

Next to him, there was an administrative officer who seemed to have seen him somewhere.

He's killed over ten guards.

Isaac, who is looking at the ledger, giggles and replies.

< Why would I run? This kind of business doubles my profits when a partner dies.

But we don't even know what the business partner died of.

< Humans are naturally very lazy and primitive. I don't know what it is.

I don't have the stamina to get out of the way because something happened.

Isaac speaks.

< If I only see what I want to see, my income has doubled for sure now, will you run away?

But the lord, who had received Leandro's letter and left everything behind, ran away.

Is the Marquis that overwhelming and obvious?

< Well, what's there to replace?

When Leandro came here, he took over my man, Merek, as interim lord.

But that was also when the investigation started.

I don't even have a false confession about the Emperor's assassination, but it's hard to think I'd suddenly be interested in him.

Ublam Guard Commander.

It was safe to kill Aspode and his men.

Facts confirmed with two regressions.

Maybe it's because Lord Yublam covered things up so they wouldn't get big.

It was odd that such a serial killing would have gone unnoticed at the time, but it is reasonable to think it was aided by the lord's greed.

I don't know. We'll be safe.

The number of books with shiny eyes

I passed the guy I was checking out.

If the Emperor arrives anyway, it is likely that other similar humans will take his place even if they kill him.

You quickly make your way out of the gates of the city, past the street that stinks of opium.

I looked back.

The night was receding on a grey wall that was worn out and incontinent everywhere.

A city whose conscience and courage have dried up. This is where Rubia died.

Hands. You should use them.

I rolled up the memory I didn't want to remember, and walked to the place where the orphanage was.

The sky floor was full of starlight, unlike Yublam.

As I walked, the air cleared up.

Soon, there was a big woodshed.

I can feel the spirit of the human children who are sleeping gently.

This floor building.

It's been a long time.

The impact of the Lena scenario might have changed here, but the orphanage was the same as before.

Not to mention the look.

< Do you know that?

I once spent three months.

Slime. Is it still there? The only ledger with candles lit. The door is closed.

Yuck.

When I opened the handle slightly,

A middle-aged man with a mild impression opened his mouth looking out the door.

It was a decisive tone that I did not wonder what I was surprised or completely hidden from.

“I would have refused your proposal to be a ghost a long time ago. Will you refrain from visiting? ”
