Chapter 447
“For the time being, my book is gone, so it’s natural to look for it. I will come.”
When I tried to go to the door, the priest raised his hand lightly.
“Where are you going to go? Is there a clue?”
“No, I’m looking for a dark cloud in the city with magic as before”
When I insisted that all the downtown area and aristocratic towns were to be explored by magic, the chief priest looked at me with amazed eyes.
“In search of magic power, even if it turns out that other people’s magic power is known, I can’t grasp my magic power. It seems to be made up of other people’s magic power, such as a noble town. It is useless at all. It ’s a fool ”
“Ugu ……”
“Rather, think about the purpose of the criminal. If the aim is narrowed down, it may be closer to the criminal.”
…… What is the purpose of the criminal? There is only one such thing.
¡I lean to my head, what the priest is saying without knowing it.
“Is there only one motive for those who want the scriptures? We have decided that we wanted to read only one precious scripture in Ehrenfest!”
If you ask for permission from the front, you may have given permission to view. However, there is no way to give permission to those who commit criminal acts that erase gray priests and invade and replace them.
My perfect reasoning was swept away by the priest with one sigh.
“If you only want to read the scriptures, you don’t have to sneak into your room and replace it. A manuscript in the temple library should be enough, and you can ask a blue priest to copy it.” 19459002]
“Well, I wonder if I want to read the dark part of the congratulatory part that isn’t in the library manuscripts, or read the part about the miracle of Haldenzell.”
Searching for places where my scriptures are superior compared to others. It is wider than the scriptures of other territories where the temple chief is chosen by the blue priest. I think there are many people who want it.
…… My scripture is amazing!
“As you say, the aristocratic who wants to know more about the miracles of Haldenzell and the central temple who wants to know the congratulations of the god of darkness can be a motivation. It is meaningless if it cannot be read without permission in the scriptures where the magical powers of “are registered.”
“Isn’t it just necessary to re-register the owner?”
I re-registered the key after becoming a temple head. It shouldn’t be too difficult to register again.
“Will reading range change?”
“… Did you want to read a place that is out of range with your magic?”
We know that it depends on the magical power of the viewer in addition to the magical power of the owner’s temple head, compared to the scriptures of the central temple. However, I don’t think it is something that a wide range of people know.
…… Is there anything wrong with the scriptures?
Honestly, I take it to the prayer room during the ceremonies, but in my case it’s just a good thing. There is no problem even if there is no scripture. Since the scriptures are not used for anything other than rituals, they are usually used as decorations for the temple headquarters. I can’t think of anything that would otherwise be in trouble.
On the other hand, what can we do without the scriptures? With that in mind, I remembered that my scriptures changed.
…… Maybe that floating magic circle or character is the target?
Although it is a scripture book to become a king, it is only me and the chief priest that can see floating magic circles and letters. I didn’t see it even from the royal family Hildebrand.
“Can’t the Ehrenfest’s scriptures themselves be the purpose?”
I couldn’t say that magic team, but I looked up at the priest. The priest chief extended only the index finger a little from the hand on his chin. Just hit the lips and become a sign of “silence”. It seems that what I wanted to say was conveyed.
Without answering my question, the priest begins to speak his guess.
“… I think it might be one of the purposes to make you a dark spot. Complain that it is unsuitable for the temple chief due to poor management, such as losing only one scripture in each territory. Not only you, but the guardian and me who is in the temple as a priest, the loss of the scriptures can be a bad spot ”
“Is there an alternative scripture?”
I pointed to the scriptures on the altar. The chief shook his head after looking at the scriptures.
“… It’s not a real scripture. It might just be a magical tool that looks like it. Let’s say that it was a real scripture of another territory. The criminal can also claim that he stole the scriptures of other territories, not only the loss of the scriptures, but also the clothes of the theft, perhaps also for the purpose. ”
I was told that he might be treated as a thief without realizing it, and I suddenly got blood.
“In the meantime, you have to find out if this is a real scripture!”
“Don’t touch the detour!”
My hand stretched toward the altar was ridden by the chief priest. Pain that is numb at the fingertips. I knew that I was paid without any effort, and I looked at my fingertips.
“I was …”
“Loss of the scriptures, wet clothes of theft, and your assassination. That’s the purpose of my criminal.”
The priest is turning his eyes to the scriptures on the altar. Too noisy words came out and I was greatly surprised.
“Ah, are you assassinated?”
“It would be best if you were able to kidnap and confine your magic so you could use it freely, but kidnapping is more difficult than killing.”
“Is it easy to kill?”
“Oh. You can prepare such an elaborate thing and replace it secretly. I will take into account assassination.”
When the priest turned his gaze toward Eckhart, Eckhart reached his medicine box at the waist and took out the white fruit. Take out the stap and turn it into a messer and lightly cut it. And I squeezed the fruit. The soup flies towards the scriptures.
“Wow! What are you doing ?? Dirt …?”
The moment the juice was applied, the scriptures turned red as if they were blood. While looking at the scriptures with a miserable face, Eckhart brothers hand over white pomegranates to Yustox. The chief priest asked, “Never.”
“This red stain is a poison that is often taken around the border between Ahrensbach and Ehrenfest, and is a rare poison that penetrates from the hand when touched. Often it’s too late to realize that you are being violated, and in fact, if you don’t realize that this scripture has been replaced, you can be sure that you will have a ready franc in autumn. But Hartmut, who helped you, would have been poisoned by far. “
When the priest said, waving lightly, Yustox took out one tube from the medicine container hung on his waist.
“Huh, I didn’t think there would be a turn”
Talking about the sigh, Justoks soaks the medicine in a gauze-like cloth. Meanwhile, Eckhart brothers put on leather gloves, picked up the cloth with a natural face, and began to wipe the scriptures. I knew that if I wiped with a cloth soaked in medicine, the red stains of poison would come off.
“It is the duty of the aides to buy knowledge about poisons and protect the Lord in this way. Do they have knowledge and a sense of crisis? Actually, poison is being used in the immediate vicinity of the Lord. Are several types of antidote ready? ”
When asked by Eckhart, everybody around me, including Cornelius, took a short breath.
“Rosemine is a magical maiden of Ehrenfest and the first wife of the next lord who has created the epidemic. If the goal is to cut down the power of Ehrenfest, Isn’t it true that the escort knight is not prepared? “
Brother Eckhart says in a quiet voice while wiping the scriptures. I saw Cornelius brother holding his fist. It is a feeling that I faced in front of me, how much attention was taken by the apostle’s aides who felt the danger of life on a daily basis, and how much preparation they were preparing.
“Cornerius, who is inferior to Angelica in ugliness and reaction speed, has to learn more about seeing the surroundings and how to remove danger in advance. The dangers around Rosemine The Ferdinand-sama who has removed the sword is gone, wouldn’t he understand the meaning of it? ”
Angelica doesn’t hesitate because she basically doesn’t think about anything. Defend the Lord by pointing weapons at anyone. Eckhart said that he needed an escort knight who could do something other than stretch his body to protect the Lord.
“You don’t have to do what Ferdinand has done so far because you can’t do the same thing as Ferdinand, but there are many Rosemine escort knights. And make as much effort as possible to get as close as possible to Ferdinand-sama. “
After confirming that there was no danger by putting a magic stone on the detoxified scriptures, sprinkling other medicines, and trying various things, Brother Eckhart offered the scriptures to the chief priest. The priest overlaid the magic team and shook his head.
“… A magic tool that closely resembles the scriptures, but it doesn’t seem to be a scripture. If you take it to the ceremonial place, you will not be able to open it and you will be in front of everyone.
“In other words, isn’t it a book?”
“It’s a magical tool that copies the appearance. There are no contents”
My anger broke through the limits where the scriptures were not interchangeable. You can see that the lid that pushes in the magic power comes off and the magic power overflows with anger. Although my body was hot like a high fever, my head was cold.
“My scripture is …”
“Rosemine?”
The next moment when I heard a voice full of surprise and horror, I was blocked by a big hand.
“Rose Mine, don’t leave it to emotion. It’s a ridiculous result”
I found out that the voice was blocking my vision.
“Multiple layers of harassment reminiscent of Villefried’s White Tower. You are in the same position as Villefried at that time. Who do you want to drive into execution? ”
‘I ’ve been politely explaining how to deal with damage to the opponent no matter where and how it ’s caught, and how far to get to the neighbors. Is desperately suppressed.
“You have to get the scriptures back as you think. That’s no doubt. If you don’t get back, you have to choose the method that causes the least damage …. Did you settle down a little?”
“Yes”
The head of the priest was released and the entourage of the face was surprised by the sight. The priest sighs as he looks at the entourage that is in the middle.
“This is not the case when you are stunned. Although rarely emotional, Rosemine will run away as soon as the book and your relatives are in danger.
“… I was impressed by the difficulty of disappearing Ferdinand”
When the brother Cornelius said that he was stunned, Leonore and Udit were also greeted.
Philine, who was going to listen to the orphanage, jumped into the place where the priest was thinking about some ways to deal with the loss of the scriptures.
“Lose Mine! Conrad is in a strange state. It is trembling in the futon and just calling for help from Rose Mine.”
“… I’m likely to know something. I’m going”
The priest looks around his aides. Justoks and Eckhart elder brother ask.
“You can only enter the cafeteria. I take Leonine and Udit as escorts, and take Filine and Monica.”
When I entered the cafeteria through the door of the orphanage that Monica opened, I found that Delia and Dirk looked at me as if I was relieved.
“How about Delia, how is Konrad?”
“I was taking a nap today because I wasn’t feeling well. I would have seen something at that time. When Filine went to hear the story, she was not shaking.
Listening to Delia’s story, I put the priests in the cafeteria and go down the stairs in the back. Entered the children’s room before the baptismal ceremony. Anxious Virma and small children are calling Conrad.
“It’s bad, will everyone come out? Please leave me, Filine, and the escort knight”
Children’s room before the baptismal ceremony is not so large. With the Vilma and others coming out, I spoke to the futon where Konrad sings.
“I am Konrad, I will tell you what happened and who should help me.”
Konrad gently appeared from the futon. The face is terrified.
“Please help the gray priests”
“Is the gray priests alive?”
Conrad whispered over and over, whispering his teeth. He gave up half because the priest said he would have disappeared, but it seems not. Feelings come to the hope that springs up.
“Help me. Tell me more, Konrad”
“The gray priests of the gatekeeper go round and round, with scary women …”
The fear is stronger and the eyes of Conrad are not fixed. Tears began to spill from my eyes.
“There is a scary person like Jonasara! … Everyone is terrible”
“Conrad!”
Filine hugs Konrad. Conrad continued to speak, clinging to Filine as if relieved and crying.
Conrad, who has finished his lunch, seems to have come to the room only by Delia and Vilma to take a nap. It seems that the gate is open just in the position where the gate for the carriage can be seen from the window. Unusual, Konrad looked at the gate through the window.
“The gate opened and a carriage came in, but the carriage suddenly stopped …”
Too wondering and blinking, it seems that the woman who got off the carriage stumps and turns the gray priests around the light belt. And he was brought into the carriage by three men. And the men closed the gate and got on the carriage again. It seems that only aristocratic women headed to the main entrance with cavalry.
“You may still be able to help. Just as they helped me from Yonasara-sama, please help them.”
The appearance of gray priests tied up with a band of light and kidnapped would have been a sight that stimulated Konrad’s trauma, who had been abused by Stap. I lightly stroked Conrad’s head, which was sweaty and cool enough.
“I will help. The carriage sightings are already instructed to be collected from the soldiers at the gate, so you can see immediately from which gate you left. Please wait with peace of mind.” 19459002]
In order to reassure Conrad, I tried to smile as gentle as possible, but I felt angry enough that Harawata boiled and repeated. He stole my scriptures, prepared a poisoned fake, abducted the gray priests, and stimulated Conrad’s trauma.
However, it was a big harvest that I got the information that the gray priests were alive that I thought might have been erased in the words of the chief priest.
“Filine, will you stay here?”
In my words, Filine compared me to Conrad, who was hugged. Konrad pushed Filine’s body at the moment when his arm was hugging him.
“My sister must go with Rosemine, and help everyone. I’m waiting for everyone to return with Dirk.”
“… I understand”
I leave Konrad to Delia and Dirk and return to the cafeteria. Filine laughed a little, saying, “I’m happy that Konrad is reliable, but I’m a little lonely as an older sister.”
“Thank you for waiting”
When I returned to the cafeteria, Justoks was listening to Fritz. I walk toward you.
“The chief priest, the gray priests of the gatekeeper are alive”
“What?”
“Conrad witnessed being restrained by a band of light on Staple and being placed in a carriage. We will go to help as soon as the gate information gathers.”
“It was surprising to have taken it away. It would be easier to erase it without any evidence.”
Justoks lightly shook his shoulders to the chief priest who whispered his chin.
“Because the old Veronicas are being played by the paper and printing industries, there is a possibility that they tried to take away the gray priests and gain knowledge. But life will be safe. “
“I see, but wherever I thought I could get caught, I could become a carnivorous person. Speed and covert action will be required for rescue operations. I will return to the temple head room.” [19459002 ]
As we leave the orphanage, we hear stories about the information gathered at the orphanage from Filine and Justocus. In addition to Konrad’s important testimony, some testimony seems to have been obtained at the orphanage. Filine talked while watching the notes.
“A gray priest who was cleansing is having a conversation with a gatekeeper who was in contact with the nobility area. There was a noble visitor and he was told to clear it up quickly.”
The gatekeeper seems to have said, “That person is very strict with the gray priestess and the gray priest.” Justox continued further.
“According to Fritz, the gatekeeper is the former servant of Sikikoza. If he is a nobleman, he must be a relative of Sikikoza. The line is thick. ”
… Countess Darldorf.
A former Veronica female who hates and hate me who caused Shikikoza’s execution. You should have promised not to get me involved with the clan, but did you think you could get involved with it? Or is there any way to escape?
Dermuel and Angelica were in the process of thinking.
“Rose Mine, I gathered chiefs from each gate and asked for information. I asked them to keep an eye out for the coming and going of the carriage.”
Information on the gate that manages the entry and exit of carriages is important. Everyone’s eyes are directed at Darmuel and Angelica.
“Please give me information”
“Huh!”
“Now it’s time for the nobility from the north to gather for the winter social circle. Today, only 10 noble carriages have entered the Ehrenfest. There is no “
The north should be already snowing. The south hasn’t fallen yet, so there will definitely be a difference in coming to the aristocratic town for the winter social circle.
“It seems that there were four carriages using the North Gate, complaining that they would normally enter the aristocratic street using the aristocratic gate, but the temple had no gatekeeper and could not enter the temple. I heard from Gunther that he was concentrating on. “
Dermuel told me about North Gate. Dad seems to have gathered information immediately.
“Does there be no carriage out there, does it mean that the gray priests were taken to the aristocratic town?”
“If you use the aristocratic gate to go to the aristocratic town, you need magic authorization to open it, so if you ask the castle, you should know who used the aristocratic gate.”
The priest said, but honestly it is hard to wait for the work of the nobility, which takes days before the answer comes back.
“Rosemine, I, no, there is a report from Stin Luke”
Angelica boiled Stin Luke with a bite. Stin Luke begins speaking in the voice of the chief priest.
“There was information that an unusual wagon came in from West Gate. The wagon itself was like a commoner with a little money, but his wording and attitude were clearly serving nobility. Yes, it came in before the third bell rang, and it was confirmed that it would leave the south gate sometime after the fourth bell rang. ”
“South Gate …?”
“At the South Gate, a soldier made a noise in a carriage and confirmed the inside, and a soldier said that he was shown a ring with an aristocratic crest and was shut up.”
I saw the priest in Stin Luke’s words. Anything will be too suspicious.
“You haven’t been too far away. You can just check it.”
“Let’s accompany you. You can’t throw me out alone.”
The priest said and looked around the room.
“I was honestly surprised by the ability to collect information in the downtown area. However, it is not worth the testimony of the aristocrats in the commoner. Be sure to hold down the emblem of the emblem or the gray priests who were taken away. It must be good. ”
“Hey!”
