To Be a Power in the Shadows!

Ahead, while supporting Shelley, was the vice dean's office behind the ground floor. By the way, I've had about five more people secretly exit since then.

We just open a little heavy door and go indoors.

A hobby reception set is placed in the center of the room, with a tall bookshelf lined up on one side of the wall.

Materials pile up at the back desk for practical use, and soft light plugs in through the north-facing windows.

It feels like a calm adult space.

Shelley clasped her desk drawer knowingly.

"Don't make too much noise."

Peachy hair nodded cocklessly on the other side of the desk.

"Huh."

I threw my legs out on the couch for two and exhaled heavily.

Tired.

I'm pretty sure Shelly's the main character in this one, but I can't. She will never be able to attack scenarios. There must always be a partner character in this case, but there was no sign of that anywhere. It's a terrible flaw scenario.

After all the trouble, I decided to intervene in the help mob position.

I'm a mob, never active on the surface. Absolutely.

"There was."

Shelley came back with the materials from across the desk.

And arrange it on the desk of the reception set.

"What is this?"

Letters, shapes, formulas, I have no idea what that means.

"This is an artifact called The Eyes of Greed. This is probably what's inhibiting magic right now."

Somehow I can see the disastrous dessert of a ping-pong ball-sized sphere.

"These 'eyes of greed' absorb the magic around them and accumulate it. Because of this, when the eyes of greed are activated, it becomes difficult to smell magic around them."

"The blackheads used their magic powers normally, though?

"You must have made The Eyes of Greed remember the wavelength of magic beforehand. I have confirmed that I will not absorb the registered magic. It's hard to absorb other extremely subtle magic and powerful magic, but we can't handle such magic in the first place."

Hmm.

"This is just a nasty artifact, but the eyes of greed can also use the accumulated magic. Perhaps the original purpose was to use magic, but we considered it a flawed artifact because of the difficulty of preserving magic for a long period of time."

"If you can't do it for a long time, you can do it for a short time."

"Yes, there are many demon swordsmen currently imprisoned in the Great Auditorium. Assuming you unleashed the magic you're absorbing there... the school will blow up"

"Heh..."

"These eyes of greed were previously studied and elucidated by me. Given that danger, I decided to have it stored in the country without announcement in academia... how could this happen"

Shelley looked at me with a tremendous look.

"There was something of the same type or it was stolen. So there's something about how to deal with the eyes of greed?

"Yes."

Sherry nodded and took out the larger pendant.

"You're a dirty pendant."

"This is supposedly a control device for the eyes of greed. The eyes of greed were not alone in the first place, but were probably thinking of using them in combination with this control device. That changes the position of a flawed artifact that cannot preserve magic for a long time."

"Can you store it for a long time?

"I don't know about that, but it's possible," he said.

"Hmm."

"You can temporarily stop the function of the eye of greed by this control device. You should be able to free the auditorium in the meantime."

"Like, so?

"Eh, I haven't decrypted this artifact yet, so I'll prioritize decryption first"

"Hmm."

"Once decrypted, bring the activated artifact closer to the eye of greed"

"How?

"Uh... the ground is on alert, so I thought I'd get closer to the auditorium from the basement first"

Shelley smiled like a little trouble.

"From the basement?

"Yes."

Shelley pulled out a few books from a bookshelf lined up on the wall. Then the bookshelf spinned and a staircase to the basement appeared in the back.

"Wow."

I love these tricks.

"There are a few hidden passageways left in the school facility for escape. But this passage hasn't been used in a while."

The colour of sorrow floated in Shelley's eyes.

"There's still dust on the stairs...... no footprints. I wish your father-in-law had gotten you out of here."

"Are you Ruslan's deputy school director? Is that your stepfather?"

"He originally supported my mother in her research. He took care of me and raised me after my mother died."

"Nice guy."

"Yes, very. I've always been helped... so this time I'm going to help."

Shelley laughed cloudlessly when she said so.

"I hope you're okay. So, after we get closer from the basement?

"Oh, uh... I'll get closer from the basement and throw the activated artifact into the auditorium"

"Won't it break?

"I can temporarily take away the functionality even if it breaks, so it's okay. So, after that, if all the demon swordsmen can work hard..."

I'm a little weak at the end, but I don't know if it would be a problem if I got shadowed and rampaged. I'd rather have a good looking active scene to thank you for.

"Great, let's do it"

"Yay, I'll crack it in a hurry then."

"My back hurts, so I can't work with you anymore, but good luck."

Really good with a decent operation. This doesn't even seem like a help mob turn up.

"Sid, please don't push me. Me, good luck. I've never been able to do anything before, so I'm going to help your father-in-law and everyone."

"Yeah, hang in there. Oh, I'm going to the bathroom."

Leaving Sherry to focus on decrypting, I went out to play.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

A man with starving wild dog-like eyes, Rex opens the big auditorium door and walks dignified.

Several black-crushed men follow after Rex.

As they approached, the students, seated in the chair, lay down their faces.

The auditorium is a large blowout hall up to the third floor, with black-clad men blocking all exits. The students are constantly monitored and no private language is allowed.

Rex walked through the grand auditorium with a slight grin and into the back holding room.

"So what happened?"

When Rex closed the door, a black-crushed man sitting inside said.

Low, piercing voice.

The face was concealed with a mask and the appearance of the black-crush was no different, but there was a difference in character at a glance.

"You just did, 'Skinny Knight'. School control is almost complete, the Knights are making a scene outside, but we can't talk about it."

"I don't care about that. I'm asking you what happened to collecting artifacts."

"Oh, artifacts, artifacts..."

Rex shrugged his shoulders and looked at 'The Skinny Knight'.

"I think maybe that little lady has it. She's got peachy hair."

"You said you couldn't collect it?

Rex blinded himself with his head.

"That's what's gonna happen."

"Don't be ridiculous."

The magic of the skinny knight increased and the air shook.

The killer caught Rex's cheek.

"Don't be angry. I know where it is. I'll be right back."

"How much do you think your prank will interfere with the plan? If you screw up next time, I'll kill you. All right?"

"All right, all right."

The skinny knight dropped Lex off with a sharp glance as he lifted his hand and exited.

"Oh, yeah, yeah."

Shortly before he left, Rex said.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, maybe there's a guy."

Rex looks back and peeks at the reaction of the skinny knight.

The skinny knight silently urged ahead.

"Many 3rd were killed, two 2nd were dead. There's a guy with a direct heart crush and a little hole in the steeple. The latter is probably Rapier or something. It's all a blow. Quite hands-on."

With that said, Rex laughed like a hungry wolf.

"Hmm...... Shadow Garden? You finally lured him out."

"I guess. You better watch out, too, huh?

"Kukku... you want me to be careful?

"Are you all right, Mr. Lounds?"

"Hmm. Shadow garden neck with artifacts, must"

"I should have told you."

Rex walked out on the edge of his lips.

The skinny knight left grinned.

"Finally, everything will come true..."

Take the disastrously glowing artifact out of your nostalgia and watch it with suspicious eyes.

"Now I will return to the Rounds"

Kutsukutsu and the man kept laughing with a creepy voice.
