"Did Chuta have a brother?

"Chiu!

To my inquiry, the rat's "Chutai" reacted. There is no doubt that the tiny ringing and brainwave waveforms now are "yes".

"Ooh? Nice. But where is your brother?

Plum speaks naturally and the next question. The way you talk to little rats with your little neck on it is quite a smile.

"... chu"

"'I want to see you,' 'I'm not here'... are you a complicated creep, Dace?

Words indirectly perceived emotions from the slime where Larna is nearby. Originally a wordless slime seems to be good at reading emotions.

"Oh, and 'I want you to be aware', huh?

"Chiu"

A small mouse reacts to the inquiry and circles on the desk in the study. As the long tail moved, the two slime toddlers stretched up and down.

The dialogue between Plum and Larna with the rat 'Chutai' was gradually taking shape. Record changes in microscopic magic fluctuations with the brain waves generated by the response to the query and connect the response with the words that may apply.

"Sage Grecas, you can't really expect to improve the functionality of Translation Magic (Yakutuus) just by ringing."

"Right. So instead of words, we have to combine brainwaves and magic to decipher them one by one."

"I see. But if you can use this translation method, you're going to be able to talk to anyone, be it a demon or an animal that you can't talk to!

The fairy Methius hands on the nearby blue slime, shaking it with punipuni.

"Right. I'm sure this hardship will come in handy later. There's nothing to waste in your life."

"Yep!

Nevertheless, 'Chiuta' would also be tiring in question-attacks.

So, take a way that is more intuitive than words and easier to see the reaction.

For example, in the back alley of the oasis city of Kanyan, it is a method used in a conversation with a "rat human" who was in a store selling stolen goods.

"Chiu Tai, is your brother this guy?

I float a square magic window at my fingertips and expand some of the tactical information display (tactics) there. Reflects a man with light black skin. In fact, the man is the current Head of State of the Autonomous Region of Israel, Prime Minister Southout Yormusa.

".................. chu"

Shin, Chu-tae can be nagged as.

"Sounds different. - Yeah?

"'Sad' yes, Dace"

The tactical information display (tactics) also showed a clear willingness to deny that it was' different '. Three agree. First of all, this would have proved the correctness of the reaction.

"Sounds like it. So, next..."

Next, we show the ergonote. White glowing teeth on light black skin, piece sign on smile.

"Chu, chu!

I reacted violently. And he said, 'Yes!' It's a positive emotion. This interpretation also coincides with Plum and Larna.

"He said it was this guy. Ergonote, is that you?

"Master Ergonote is your brother, Dace?

"Sage Grecas!

"Oh, this is for sure." Chuta "is not just a rat. I'm cursed to look like this......, I was one of Ergonote's younger brothers (...)!

It is, of course, an inference from piling up circumstantial evidence, and there is no conclusive evidence.

However, it seems possible to overlap and supplement the circumstantial evidence by another stage.

"Mr. Grey, is Chuta a prince?

"Hey, hard to believe in Russia but hey...?

Hemperoza stares at Tochiuta with suspicious eyes at the plum that makes his eyes shine and his mouth pokane.

"I can't say it's totally true, but it's pretty likely that. No, it's been a big day. And finally, I want to ask you one more thing."

"Well, what is it?

"Name (...)"

"... ah!

"The true name of Chutai… i.e.," True Name (Core) "will be a great power to break the curse"

"Then the roster! That's right! Look for the Royal Register of Israelis and show us from one end…"

"You know what, Meti. I'm sorry, but with search magic (Gögor), I was wondering if you could explore materials from the Official Document Library of Israel, or the Metanostadt Central Library."

"Thank you for the cheap."

Fairy Metius enlarges her blue and beautiful eyes. Reflect a magical little window for yourself, and start exploring the ocean of information quickly.

I sit back in my chair and think about Pram and Hemperoza and Larna, who are all excited about the prince.

Here, I finally realized something odd.

The treasure sword "The Dawn of Thunder God (Sandagart)" was planted with a "curse for defense that turns into a rat," turning the bandit who touched it into a rat human.

Perhaps, Chuta - Ergonote's brother suffered the same curse and was changed. Fragments of "Ancient Magic" have been found both from that former bandit and from Chutai.

But when you calm down and think about it, there's something odd about this curse of ratification.

When I first heard about the curse of ratification, I thought it was a defense against the treasure sword being stolen.

But I have to say that even a royal (...) - Ergonote's younger brother (...), who doesn't have to be Kosovo mud and should have the right to use it - turns into a rat is far from its original purpose.

In the first place, the act of pulling the treasure sword "The Dawn of Thunder God (Sandagart)" from the wall is itself a magical defense mechanism of user choice against the "Holy Sword".

It would be natural to assume that there is a magical mechanism there, such as that which can only be unleashed with the blood of the chosen one, namely the royal family of Israel.

- I mean, the curse of ratting, someone set it up...?

"... well, is this a trap!

Previously, Ergonote called it "a treasure sword passed down to the royal family of Israel". He also said that what rested in the treasure trove more than in the ancient times, he held it as a matter of urgency.

When the Demon King's Army attacked, Ergonote, the first prince, was probably entrusted by the king to pick up the sword to the treasure trove.

If you put your hand on the pattern of the sword without knowing that Ergonote was cursed, it would be 'Ergothu Tai' by now, with no adventures or even a trip to the Demon King's Crusade (...).

Someone did the magic.

A terrible curse.

Is it not possible that you planted a powerful curse poison, like turning a bandit into a rat person and Ergonote's brother into a rat?

Because who?

- But prying is behind us.

"There it is!

Apparently, Metius found the roster. Share magic windows, tactical information displays (tactics) and view the roster.

"Ugh...? Lots of kids, huh?

"Oh, well?

There, led by First Prince Ergonote Rical, there were about ten names written. Sisters and brothers. Each is the son of his real wife, the second lady, the third lady's son. There's even a kid in the side room inside.

The king's name, who lost his life in the invasion of the Demon King's Army, is Mouharikal Reheim Rical. When you're a sideroom or second wife child, your second name seems different.

In the meantime, we're going to go to the rats and call them names. Be careful while making sure you react.

"What's your name... Irihart Rical?

"... chu"

"Sounds different."

But the answer was found unexpectedly fast.

"Are you the Third Prince, Algoat Reheim?

"Chiu! Chu! '

"This is it! Sage Grecas!"

"Prince Algort! That's your name...!
