The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

I quickly realized that a costume that seemed to move easily like a swordsman but was less dirty was a silent and lacking facial expression change customer/nicola.

However, in the light of the small lamp in the warehouse room, Nicola, who was about to dispose of the sofa, could not determine what it looked like. To Nicolas like that, my father Rossa approached him slowly and spoke to him as he stood ready to move at any time.

"Mr. Nicolas............? Nicolas?"

Speaking up, Nicola didn't do anything to turn around.

Rosa gently turned her gaze toward her family, so when she found out she was going to look into it, Clark stood in front of her mother Celine and Ruth stopped by Rossa's side. Stand next to Rossa while feeling nervous and breathless, observing her feet.

There was no such thing as rumbling around in or around Nicola's clothes. If it's not a place like this, it just looks like she's asleep.

"Ruth, I'm gonna turn you upside down, I need your feet."

"Yeah……!

The moment I tried to grab Nicola's foot, near the gap between the back of the couch and the seat area, I felt a small pain in my right hand fingertip. When I pulled in and looked at my fingertips, a ball of blood was floating up as if I had stabbed him with a needle. I remember well because I got bloody like this when I sewed for Alec. Ruth took a good peek at the gap on the couch.

(……………… a waiting needle?

There, a small needle was seen pointing ahead towards Ruth and pinching it. If you gently remove it, you will see that it is a needle that has about the second joint of your finger. But I don't know what it is for because I don't have a hole to thread it through like a waiting needle.

"What's wrong? Ruth."

"No, it's nothing. Let's wake up."

Ruth grabbed Nicola's foot part and flipped it with Rossa once she placed it on the floor between the ground and the couch so that it was not in danger. Nicola's feet were cold enough to tell over the cloth, and it seemed like she'd been in this place for hours.

Rossa calls out to Nicola, who closes her eyes with a distressed expression on her white face and hands on her heart and mouth to confirm her survival. But as closely as Herald did, he shook his head small and struck his tongue with a crease between his eyebrows.

"How about, Dad..."

"I'm not breathing, and my heart's not moving. And then this cold body. I can't be sure if I don't take it to church, but I guess... it won't open my eyes"

"Oh no..."

"Mother..."

Celine knelt down on the spot and Clark hurriedly placed his hand on her shoulder. It's a small inn, and if this happens two days in a row, even Celine, who is usually temperamental, would want to sit around. Even Clark, who is encouraging him, is a little blue, so Ruth thought he had to move along with Rossa.

Celine and Clark, who seem spicy enough to keep looking at the body, decided to go back to their mother's living room first and check on Nicola at Ruth and Rossa.

When I take off my thick jacket, Nicolas is thinner than I thought and doesn't seem very different from Ruth. He seemed like a swordsman when he was wearing clothes, but even if he told me he was in this physique, he could be convinced that he was a guard. I checked with Rossa on Nicolas, who wore only her skin, but found no trauma. From the side, he just looks asleep with a white face. I tried to take a pulse at Nicola's neck just in case, but she wasn't moving as Rossa said. It was also possible that he was a special subhuman, like Herald, but naturally Ruth could not make a decision.

"Dad... I wonder what happened to Mr. Nicolas"

"I don't know... I didn't get hurt, and I didn't feel ill yesterday... it's refreshing to me."

In this world where medical technology and other developments have not taken place, it is difficult to pursue the cause of death unless it is also borne by a major injury. The knowledge Ruth possesses is also halfway through, so it doesn't really help in these situations. In the other world, where it is possible to have a subordinate who is in a state of temporary death in the first place, it is doubtful that the medical technology of the previous life will help.

I put my jacket on again. I put Nicolas on the floor in front of me, and we both sighed at the same time.

"Not as good as this, is it?

"Right. Next door… I'm sorry I turned your room into a sleeping area for two, but let me lay next to the herald."

"That's good......... what do we do to our customers? Description……………………………"

"Uh... they've been watching me look around. You can't just not report it."

Rossa took a deep sigh of concern. You don't want to talk about the death of the innkeeper for two days. Ruth is also heavily concerned.

(Nevertheless, how could Mr. Nicolas? Besides, why are you in the warehouse?

There were many questions, but I had to explain the situation to the customer, and I was tempted to ask Rossa how she was holding her head. In the first place, the Herald case is also not recognized by Rossa and Ruth, so on second thought, it seems that we have yet to think about a strange situation.

(I don't know why Nicolas died, but it doesn't have to be related...)

Two deaths (one temporary death) to keep standing in the same inn, there is no way this can happen by chance. Someone must be waking it up by some intent, like Wonock said.

Ruth and Rossa took Nicola to the room where the herald was located and let her lie there. Put the cloth from the top and put your hands together small. At the same time, Ruth saw Herald's condition that he was in a state of temporary death sleeping next door. But I don't know the expression because I'm covered in cloth, and it doesn't look like my heart is moving, as Wonok said. I wondered how the hell Wonok identified it.

"Ruth, we're closing."

"Ah, yeah."

Shift the cloth that was on the face of the subtle herald to make it easier to breathe. If you're really in a state of temporary death, you should be able to breathe a little easier.

When I closed the room key and tried to walk down the hallway with Rossa to the living room, I noticed someone coming from the front.

"Mr. Wonock?

It was Wonok who appeared. Wonok scratches up his silver hair, sighing troublesome.

"What's wrong?

"The customer's... you said something about Seju, and he told me to explain what happened to him. We're stuck in this living room, Celine."

"Huh..."

Apparently, Seju, who felt strange about the noise earlier, is telling Celine to tell her what's going on. Celine hasn't even talked to Rosa yet, so she seems hesitant to speak at her discretion.

"Uh, but I need to explain it right away... Thank you for contacting us, Wonock."

"Uhm."

"Ruth, you're not coming back to the living room. Maybe I can rub it a little bit."

"Uh, it's okay, Dad. Even I..."

At those moments, Kakun and Ruth's right leg lost power. I get on my knees on the spot because of that. At the same time, Ruth grabbed her right hand with her left hand when she was struck by a feeling of paralysis in her right half.

But Rosa, who saw Ruth on her knees, sighed small and looked tender. That was the same face Celine had earlier when she knelt on the floor.

"Look, you're just as upset as Celine is really. Be nice."

"Ah..."

"We'll be in the hallway for a while. It'll be over soon. Mr. Wonock, let's go. I'll explain what happened."

"That's true………………"

Following Rossa, Wonok turns his back on Ruth and walks out the hallway. Rossa let me know. Looks like she started telling Wonock the situation quickly.

Ruth tried to speak to them, but noticed the words didn't sound. His mouth moves to blow the wind, but he doesn't speak.

(Wait, Dad, Mr. Wonok............!

Eventually, the abnormality in the right half begins to erode the left half of the body as well. With his left leg similarly powerless, Ruth buttocks on the spot. The left arm, trying to support his body, slips through the ground and puts Ruth's body to the edge of the hallway.

(Why, like this... not good, like this...)

The paralysis eventually reached the abdomen as well. The physical freedom becomes less favourable so that it is gradually eroded. The anxiety that even the heart and lungs would be paralyzed as they were, making it difficult to even breathe, struck Ruth, but there was no voice even if he wanted help. If you fall in a strange position, you may have noticed something unusual, but it is also difficult because you have sat in a shape that deposits your body on the wall.

When there was an open sound of the living room in the back of the long hallway, a noise sounded. He opened the door and just got bit. A voice sounds as Rossa talks to calm him down, disappearing with the sound of the door closing.

In the hallway that became a sin, only my bitter breath reached my ear.

(father, mother, brother………… Alec……)

The world blurs and my vision becomes uncertain.

As soon as I fell into the dark, I heard footsteps of something rushing with intense momentum.
