Episode 543 Ghost (1)
Maderkin Lillegrims.
‘I didn’t know it was this guy…’
The emotions I felt the mont I t her face were neither joy nor doubt.
I was just embarrassed.
“You… would have been killed by the chief?”
“yes…?”
The guy who heard my muttering looked at with a face that didn’t understand.
This is how it happened, I continued.
“To be killed by the village chief… what does that an—.”
“I saw a dagger with your clan’s pattern engraved on it at their forge.”
“ah….”
“Why was that dagger there?”
“That… I don’t know. However, before leaving the island, the mbers made a deal with the residents. I gave away the useless items and received an excessive number of magic stones.”
Testimony that exactly matches the answer the village chief gave regarding this suspicion.
This made even more confused.
‘…the village chief was innocent?’
So what did I do while escaping the village?
Was it just a show off?
He had a sudden thought, but he shook his head and brushed off his thoughts.
It is not too late to make a decision after hearing everything.
“Tell . What happened to you after we left the island.”
“yes? Ah… yes! All right!”
As soon as he saw us, he ran to us with a face that said, ‘You’re here to save us!’ For a while, I reacted coldly and asked questions as if interrogating him.
“First of all, we left the island two days after the baron left.”
Actually, this guy’s story was nothing special.
I left the island because I wanted to do sothing, but after going through it once, I beca scared and headed to the relatively easy library island.
Like us who ca here again for farming, he seed to feel the need to grow the mbers first.
but….
“It was the first object I saw. It had hideous-looking wings and a sli-like body. But it had all sorts of grotesque limbs sprouting from it.”
A new monster that isn’t even in my database.
As a result, the Silver Lion Clan was annihilated, and even the ship they were on was smashed. However, the mont I thought I was dead as I fell into the water and lost my mind.
Maderkin wakes up on Library Island.
His backpack got caught on a rock and he was barely breathing.
“After that… I thought it was too dangerous outside, so I ca down here. And… I waited alone. Until soone finds this place again…”
I thought in case you didn’t know, so I saved the food I had as much as possible, and I endured and endured alone, fighting against loneliness, not monsters.
To sum up, that was the story…
“Right.”
I didn’t think it was a particularly sad story.
From the beginning, it seems that as soon as the decision to annihilate was made, they abandoned all the mbers and jumped into the sea.
‘It’s a plausible story.’
Maderkin Lillegrims.
This guy I watched was enough to make that choice in that situation.
but….
‘The information gathering ends here.’
I heard the story well.
So, it’s ti to check the truth of the story.
thus….
“Versil.”
I gave instructions to the wizard and used verification magic.
Unfortunately, the magic to verify that the exorcism was quite strong didn’t work properly, but I took out an item from the subspace without any regrets.
‘It’s a bit of a waste to use what’s left here, but…’
No matter how you think about it, it’s an award.
“Mathekin Lilliams.”
“yes?”
“From now on, I intend to check whether what you are saying is true.”
I didn’t ask for forgiveness in the form of asking if it would be okay.
Because he doesn’t have a choice anyway.
click-
It imdiately activated the ‘displaced trust’.
With this he hoped to find out everything, even if he was hiding sothing.
but….
“Now, let’s start with a simple question.”
how did this happen again?
“Tell . what is your na?”
Just like in the doppelganger forest, simple test questions to find out if things are working properly.
“…”
“…”
But why can’t this bastard answer?
***
Tick tock, tock.
A disc in the shape of a compass.
Only the sound of the second hand moving in the middle is slowly and consistently repeated. As the quiet ti continues, the sensation of increasing the density of the air settles down your spine.
but….
Swoop.
My warrior body calmly carried out the actions I needed to do right now.
When I ca to my senses, my hand was naturally directed to the handle of the hamr on my back.
Involuntary actions based entirely on instinct.
after….
Still, when I touch the weapon, it calms down a bit.
“Tell , Lilgriams.”
I asked again.
“What is your na?”
The boy averted his gaze at the question.
The eyes that were excessively focused to the right gave off a bizarre and bizarre sense of heterogeneity beyond being suspicious.
thus….
“I will ask you one last ti.”
It’s not just about putting your hand on a weapon.
Now, he takes out his weapon openly and asks again.
“What is your na?”
“…”
Yeah, I’m going to exercise my right to remain silent, right?
‘In case you don’t know, let’s start by breaking all the limbs first.’
As soon as I finished organizing things in my head, I energized the hand holding the hamr.
And just as I was about to swing it.
“…ah.”
He broke his long silence and opened his mouth.
“Listen, turned on, everything…”
It was a short word, but for so reason, it felt like the tone of voice had changed.
That feeling wasn’t even wrong.
“I got caught. got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught got caught Caught.”
Like a lagging audio device, the man repeating the sa words, his eyes shook all the ti, and his voice clearly showed nervousness and anxiety.
As if in a panic state.
The guy was obviously terrified.
“I got caught. got caught got caught got caught Caught—.”
“…What are you?”
Soon, he reached out with one hand, grabbed the guy by the neck, and lifted it up. The words he spoke changed.
“What do we do?”
“…?”
“What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do?”
It was a feeling I had never felt before.
I’m sure it was who grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up, so why should I feel so uncomfortable?
“What do we do? What do we do? What to do—.”
Then the boy suddenly shut his mouth.
and….
“…ah.”
He quietly lifted his chin and looked at .
The pupil, which was bizarrely turned to the right, was staring at from the front before I knew it.
In that state, the boy spoke slowly.
“i get it.”
A voice as if he had just realized sothing.
This was the mont when he raised the hamr upwards, feeling unknown anxiety.
“What should I do?”
end with that.
Whoa-!
The body in his hands exploded.
***
The explosive power itself wasn’t that great.
To the degree that the hand that was tightly gripped by the neck felt a little prickly?
Even that was more like an itchy feeling like an allergic reaction rather than a scratch.
However, the explosion was enough to tear soone’s flesh into thousands of pieces and scatter bone fragnts.
“The priest… must be aningless.”
Covered in blood and flesh, he blankly looked down for a mont.
After grasping the situation, I let out a long sigh.
‘Ehehe, this is a ss.’
It’s not without excuses, but in the end, the factor of defeat was my lack of imagination.
While always trying to keep the worst in mind.
I just couldn’t foresee this situation.
‘…No, no matter how I know this.’
Of course, I felt that way while blaming myself.
Not only was it difficult to know, but it was a fundantal question whether it would have been possible to stop them just because they knew.
By the way, how do you prevent an ergency exit?
Ergency Escape is a skill that has no counterasures.
Because unless you’re a god, you can’t bring the dead back.
In theory, it’s the best escape…
As much as it boasts its fraudulent performance, the cost of casting is one’s own life—.
‘I’m done with useless thoughts, let’s start with tidying up.’
“Yandel…!”
“It’s okay, don’t make a fuss. Oh, I have sothing to think about, so leave it alone.”
After reassuring the worried colleagues, I had ti to review and organize the situation once again.
Speaking of results, it was possible to condense it into one short sentence.
‘Sothing unidentified was pretending to be Maderkin Lilgris.’
If so, who is the culprit?
There was only one suspect.
‘The village chief.’
No, should I say he was sent by the village chief?
I don’t think the village chief would have panicked as soon as he was caught doing sothing so lax.
Anyway, now that the suspect is out, the next step is simple.
One of the basic elents of reasoning.
‘why? And how?’
For what reason, and what thod did you use to do this? I made a lot of assumptions and thought about it, but this was thoroughly veiled and I couldn’t figure it out.
‘To deceive into saying I am innocent? No, maybe he just wanted to keep an eye on …’
It’s still unclear what the purpose was.
‘What on earth do I have to do to make this possible?’
There are no integers that can be guessed.
There are a few skills that steal the body of others, but that’s completely different from this feeling.
In most cases, the caster must be nearby, and even after the body is taken away, a thread-like connection is made and can be confird with the naked eye.
yeah, so…
‘It’s not an integer.’
If you have to ask.
‘An evil spirit.’
Rather, it will be more similar in form to the ‘evil spirit’.
After thinking about it, cold sweat ford on my hands.
However, after that, I spent a lot of ti, sotis consulting with colleagues, and continued to speculate, but in the end, I couldn’t find out anything more.
It’s just a hypothesis with no basis yet.
‘The village chief has the ans to steal the bodies of others like an evil spirit.’
There’s nothing wrong with being careful.
***
After Lilgrims’ ergency evacuation commotion.
As soon as the incident was over to so extent, I led the group to investigate the library.
Once we left, there were two changes.
‘The book… is back.’
Summon books that have already been used have been recharged.
When I left, the bottom of the bookshelves was almost empty. All the books that had been scattered and scattered around were all organized and the floor was tidy.
and….
‘The stairs have also been initialized.’
I eagerly consud the summoning book and climbed the stairs to the upper level bookshelf where the 3rd grade monster appeared, but the library I returned to was the sa as when I first ca.
‘Hmm, then what is the initialization standard? Is it ti?’
If so, I would like to think that the rainy season might be the reference point for so reason, but it has not been confird yet.
“Yandel, it’s okay. In this way, you will be able to obtain the essence much more leisurely.”
“Ah… that’s right.”
First of all, as Alia said, it was a positive situation.
It hurts that the stairs have been reset, but it ans farming itself is theoretically infinitely possible.
Well, that’s not to say there aren’t any negatives.
‘It would be difficult to get to the top of the bookshelf with simple labor if it resets midway like this.’
There was even a ti limit condition attached to clearing the library island, which was already difficult.
However, it won’t be too late to complain about this later when aiming for clearing.
‘I thought it would be reset, but let’s stop wasting ti here.’
I threw away all my worries and anxieties and focused only on the reason I ca here.
In fact, I was on the side of nogada-type gas.
If you just do nothing, all your thoughts will disappear.
「You have killed the Frost Wolf.」
「You have killed the Stone Golem.」
「You have killed Hobgoblin.」
「You have killed the Ice Orc Warrior.」
「You have killed the Yeti.」
「You have killed Ryture Talisman.」
「…」
After that, they divided the number of people into a group looking for a book containing good prey and a combat group, and continued to work like crazy.
Grade 9, Grade 8, Grade 7…
The higher the height of the bookshelf that can be climbed, the higher the level of difficulty, and from the ti level 4 or higher monsters started appearing, the focus was on finding and summoning ‘specific monsters’.
The magic stone ca out.
experience is accumulated.
and….
“Integer!”
Essences to feed the Anabada mbers have not yet been released, but a few essences a day co out, and the group I lead has grown little by little as a whole.
And so ti passed…
“That’s enough! I’ll only do this far for today, everyone, take a break!”
The 85th day after entering the labyrinth.
「The character’s soul resonates and is drawn to a specific world.」
The day has co.
