◈ Episode 383 Shadow Monster (1)

“What happened?”

“It was a long time ago. At the time, I was an unofficial member of the School of Truth. I wasn’t even on the list, I was just helping out as an outside advisor.”

“From what they’re saying, it seems like you’ve been given some serious responsibility.”

“It did. Exactly, it wasn’t me, it was my daughter.”

Roina widened her eyes at the word daughter and asked.

“Did you have a daughter?”

“What are you doing?! You mean I can’t even get married!”

As Rimray tried to wield his staff, Roina hid behind Arfa.

Rudger watched the ridiculous sight.

To be honest, I had the same thoughts as Roina.

To say he has a daughter, that this old man is married.

Rimrey glared at Roina, who was hiding behind Arfa, and lowered her staff.

“… … She was my only daughter. She was an up-and-coming member of the School of Truth, and she explored the mystery more diligently than anyone else.”

“A quest for a mystery.”

Through the conversation between Rimray and the School of Truth, and what Rimray was saying now, Ludger recalled the situation he had come to Kasar Basin.

All the puzzle pieces fit together one by one.

There were still many pieces missing, but a rough picture was drawn.

“Could it be that Sage Rimrei’s daughter is here… … .”

Rimrey nodded with a heavy expression.

“My daughter came here to Kasar Basin as a member of the School of Truth. However, at the time, she said, not much was known about what to be careful about and what to be careful about in the Cassar Basin as it is now.”

“That means your daughter is a mysterious phenomenon… … .”

“It was a natural disaster. It happened on the way back after finishing everything smoothly for three days. A storm of magical power caused by excessive concentration of mana. It hit the middle of the procession trying to leave the Cassar Basin.”

At the time, Rimray did not participate in the Mystic Night.

He also kept quiet about what he had heard.

“A storm of magic is dangerous. Even if you are far away, it makes your skin thrilled. It’s not called a disaster for nothing.”

The wizards fell into a panic, and could not respond.

It was Rimrey’s daughter who stepped out at that time.

“My daughter suggested that we join forces to stop the magical storm. She couldn’t push or avoid it, but I figured she could at least buy me some time. Magical disasters are not permanent. Rather, its duration is very short. The point of judgment was that she would sink if she held out a little.”

That judgment was indeed correct.

Hundreds of wizards unleashed magic at once and resisted the magical storm.

The storm had stopped, and if I held out just a little longer, it might subside.

If there was something she overlooked.

It must have been human selfishness.

“Some cowards were afraid of the magical storm and took advantage of it to escape outside. Like cracks in a great wall, other mages were also affected by it.”

This should be fine.

I’ll be the only one

With that thought, the wizards chose to run away.

collapse.

The confrontation of power that was barely balanced collapsed due to the departure of the wizards.

“152 people. At that time, it was the number of people who burned their magic to block the storm of magic until the end.”

And so was the number of deaths.

No one could express consolation at Rimrey’s calmly recited words.

The futility and anger subtly permeated deep in his voice were not something that could be hastily sympathized with.

“Then the reason why Sage Rimrei is coming here is… … .”

“It’s regretful. As a father, the lingering feeling that perhaps his daughter who was swept away by a mysterious phenomenon might be alive.”

As a wizard, he acknowledged his daughter’s death, but as a father, he still hasn’t.

So, Rimray came to Kasar Basin, where a mysterious night was held.

With the hope that maybe we can find traces of our daughter.

every year.

for decades.

“… … Then, the truth school magicians over there must be survivors of that day.”

“They are mean cowards.”

Limray gnashed his teeth.

“At the same time, they brazenly say that they are more important people and should live longer. It was like that decades ago, but now it’s gotten worse as if I was wasting my age.”

Rimray muttered that, then smiled at Rudger.

“Still, thanks to you, I feel a bit cooler inside.”

“I mean?”

“Did you forget what happened a while ago? Didn’t you coolly commit it towards those senile things? It was so precious that the other guys were just puzzled over what they were afraid of, but it felt like my stomach was opening up for the first time in a long time.”

It wasn’t a particularly good thing to do.

It’s just that Ludger was also angry at the behavior of the School of Truth.

Such a selfish act even in a situation where you have to get out of the mansion somehow.

Even the shameless act of asking a subject who came to the study later to leave this side.

If no one was here to see it, or if it had not been an emergency, they might have resorted to force.

“The story is long. Let’s not talk about it here, let’s work hard to find a book that will help.”

Rimray said that and left first.

The other party had no choice but to follow Rimrey’s words.

Rudger also took Arfa and left under the pretext of looking through other bookshelves.

“leader.”

Realizing that there were no hearing ears around, Arfa asked Rudger.

“Why do you want to keep the hidden space a secret from your party?”

Arfa’s response was that he didn’t understand it a little while ago.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to let everyone know?”

“Because I can’t believe it.”

“Who?”

“entire.”

Rudger took out a book from the bookshelf and flipped through the pages.

Arfa tilted her head to the side as if she still didn’t understand Ludger’s words.

“Arfa. A murder took place here. you know?”

widely.

Rudger closed the book.

“yes? yes. Because I saw it.”

“The number of murderers is about ten. But that doesn’t matter. The important thing is that there are still murderers in the mansion, and they belong to the Black Dawn.”

“yes. So, as the leader said, I carefully looked at the suspicious-looking people.”

“okay. But none of them contacted me. Even if you don’t know I came here.”

Arfa asked Rudger, who put the book back on the bookshelf.

“But isn’t it because there are too many eyes around you?”

“It could be. But I was able to send enough signals. Still, no one sent me a signal. Even on the way back to the study, we were not followed.”

Ludger, who was holding a new book, turned over the paper and asked Arfa.

“Why?”

“that… … .”

Arfa tried to answer that he didn’t know, but then he changed his mind again.

For Rudger to ask like this, it meant that he had given enough clues.

Rudger said he couldn’t believe it.

He didn’t point out who it was, he said everything, but the reason for strictly keeping the secret in the current situation was clear.

“Are there more?”

Rudger’s eyes lit up at Arfa’s question.

Rudger asked to confirm.

“what?”

“The Black Dawn, the leader said. Leaders are nominally their executives. However, the lack of contact or signal is not that they are ignoring the leader, but that it is not necessary.”

am i right?

Facing Arfa’s eyes, Ludger smiled and said,

“That is correct.”

Rudger put the book back on the shelf.

“They don’t approach me. It’s not that it’s not possible because of this situation. That there is no need for that.”

“It doesn’t have to be… … ?”

“For example, there is already someone I can communicate with about me.”

“yes? But our group… … .”

“Arfa. Trusting people is good, but trusting too much is sometimes poisonous. Doubt is necessary in life.”

Arfa’s face turned sullen at Ludger’s resolute words.

“Still, something doesn’t seem right. Everyone seems to be good people, but to think that there is someone among them who deceives us. Why? Is it really necessary?”

“Everyone has their own reasons. Whether it’s for a great cause or something really insignificant.”

“So, what are you going to do now?”

“You have to watch first. It’s not too late to check how the opponent is coming out and deal with it. Above all, the most important thing right now is how to get out of this mansion.”

“Were there any clues in the inner room?”

Rudger nodded.

“I found out the secret inside the mansion. Various mystical phenomena, magic traps, and even the institution that handles this mansion.”

“Then can we leave now?”

“Not right now. The thing that locked the door of the mansion was related to the engine device, but the problem is that we don’t know the location of the engine device yet.”

“I have to find it and move it. But how do I explain it to others?”

“That is one of the new problems.”

The constraint of having to move with five people unconditionally was not usually uncomfortable.

Wherever we go, we have to move together.

“And it’s not just the party that is suspicious. Other Truth School wizards in this study are also on the line of suspicion.”

If they hadn’t come to the study, I wouldn’t have thought much of it, but it bothered me that they came to the study at this timing.

“What the hell is the Black Dawn trying to do here?”

“I’m not sure, but there was something like that in the contents of the book written on the inside.”

“What is it?”

“This Kassar Basin is a land created by a huge energy that flows through the land, that is, a leyline gathered in one place. It can be compared to a natural dam that holds a huge amount of water. What will happen if this dam breaks?”

“Well, there will be great damage, right? As the water is released all at once, the entire nearby area will be flooded… … .”

Arfa stopped talking and opened his eyes wide.

“no way… … .”

“That’s it. They’re trying to break the flow of the leylines that exist in this Cassar Basin.”

The collapse of the leyline.

Does that mean that it is possible?

Arfa, who did not have access to knowledge in this way, questioned whether the plan was feasible.

“Perhaps it is possible. It’s undeniable that they figured out a method of some sort.”

“How the hell are you going to destroy the leyline?”

“The Cassar Basin has a total of 5 huge leylines. If you twist the flow in the middle, the balancing forces will entangle and collide with each other. It is not very difficult.”

The backlash caused by the collision will result in a terrifying disaster in the area.

This was the method that Leslie had talked about to wipe out all the wizards at once.

I didn’t know how to do it until now, but it was clear that it was possible because I had interpreted the contents of the hidden room.

“One of those important leylines is where this secret mansion is located. That’s probably why they came into the mansion.”

“Then I’ll have to stop it.”

“okay. The problem is how to convince the party to move.”

It was at that moment that I wondered if I should just gloss over it and pass it over.

The interior of the mansion began to tremble with a sharp sound.

“leader! The mansion… … !”

“Know.”

Rudger took Arfa and headed to the center of the study.

It was full of people who had gathered because of the shaking that was happening now.

Roina, who found Rudger, exclaimed.

“Mr. Rudger!”

“Is everyone okay?”

“yes. Rather, this vibration… … .”

“It looks like something is about to happen.”

It was clear that the Black Dawn had a hand.

I don’t know if he touched a leyline or an organ of the mansion.

Either way, it’s never going to be anything out of the ordinary.

The vibrations that continued to rise eventually subsided.

But no one in the seat was happy about that fact.

Everyone instinctively realized that this stillness was like the calm before the storm.

The wizards of the School of Truth were divided among themselves.

“Isn’t this something we have to leave too?”

“It may not be a big deal. It’s safe in the study, so it’s not bad to watch the situation from here.”

“The door might be open now, isn’t it?”

“There is still plenty of time before midnight. It’s still fine.”

Tortei stepped in and sorted out the situation.

“Once you watch it. If you move recklessly here, you could get swept away.”

While saying that, Tortei glanced at Rimray.

It was a look at what he was going to do.

Rimray took one shot at the tortei and then said to Rudgar.

“Go out. Because I don’t think it’s good to stay here. Or will you stay here?”

“It was a car that I thought it would be nice to go out too.”

Rudger led his party and left the study.

The magicians of the School of Truth clicked their tongues against Ludger’s back, but he ignored them lightly.

Rudger and his friends in the hallway were nervous about the quiet atmosphere in the mansion.

“Everyone be careful. I don’t know what will happen now.”

The moment everyone was about to say yes, a scream rang out from across the hallway.

“Aaaagh!”

Unlike the hallucinations caused by mysterious phenomena so far, the screams of living people.

Soon after, on the other side of the hallway, a contemplative mage was running toward us as if running away.

“help me! monster! A monster!”

a monster? Rather, why is that person alone? What about the party?

Everyone was puzzled by the sight.

At that moment, something stirred in the darkness of the far hallway.

Arfa, who was the first to recognize it, asked in surprise.

“What the hell is that?”

Behind the fleeing wizard, strange monsters were chasing them.
