Surprising Even Breathing

27 – For sending and receiving messages with magic

Demesis-only lounge near the professors’ labs.

There were various living furniture such as a bed, chair, desk, and bookshelf so that I could rest comfortably.

The reason why my own lounge exists is because the bachelor’s consideration and desire to rest here, not to scare people by going outside for nothing, during break time or during classes.

I understood their meaning, so I decided to use the dedicated rest room.

You don’t have to stop by anywhere else, you can comfortably talk to a dark-haired woman here.

“No, can’t you feel the difference?”

“Mo, don’t you know?”

Even when I asked if she was less scared because she had a tattoo, she just pulled back her chair.

I wrinkled my nose.

I thought that the mana flowing outwardly had decreased a lot, but it seemed that there was still a long way to go.

It’s okay to ask how much her impression has changed, so I took a closer look at her.

Indigo blue bobbed hair that was tangled and curled down.

Wearing round glasses, he seemed quite intelligent, but his personality seemed harsh.

When I saw it at the Information Guild, this was the face hidden behind the black mask.

As I stare at her, she lowers her head and avoids my gaze.

“Chasey. Chase Odeln. Is this your real name?”

I asked if the name registered in the academy’s personal information was real.

In the Information Guild, she was disguised as a middle-aged woman and wearing a mask, so she might be using a pseudonym instead of her real name.

“No… it’s not my name. I will not hide it from Demesis-nim.”

Habitually denying my words, she soon closed her eyes and admitted that Chase was her real name.

What is this woman trying to hide?

It’s like a cat that doesn’t listen to you, trying to run away whenever you have a chance.

“The talented daughter of the Yuren Grand Troupe. Is this your real identity?”

I knew all the names and backgrounds of the academy special class students.

If you ask the bachelor about that much, he will kindly answer.

“Yes that’s right. I am the second daughter of Count Odeln, the owner of the Yuren Caravan.”

Chase wiggling his fingers as he answers.

For some reason, the atmosphere in which he answered seemed like a suspect being interrogated.

It must be because I am staring straight at her, and she is cowering.

Demesis’ resting room, which is very comfortable for me, but more terrifying to her than the dungeon of the imperial palace.

Seeing her demeaning attitude the more I spoke to her, I felt regret.

After all, he’s the first guest invited to my private lounge, but he’s scared and can’t cheer up.

I don’t want to hold on to it for a long time, but I need to ask only the necessary questions quickly and then send them off.

“Since you, a former member of the Yuren Merchant, even served as the branch manager of the information guild, the two of them have at least a cooperative relationship, or it can be said that they are run by the same owner. Am I right?”

Since the woman of the count’s family even occupied the position of the information guild’s branch manager, it was easy to guess.

“Yes, in fact, Whispers of the Night is also a guild run by the Yuren Grand Prize. This is originally a secret, but you can’t go somewhere and tell others. Please, Demesis-sama…”

She bowed her head and asked.

It had nothing to do with me, but it must have been an important secret that the Yuren Corps even ran an information guild.

“And you must never tell me that you found out because of me. I mean, I was really hiding it well, except for Demesis-nim.”

His voice was trembling thinly.

Was this like a fatal weakness that shouldn’t be discovered?

I scratched my head as I watched her terrified and candid.

There were not many people who could talk to me anyway.

It’s useless worry that I’m going to tell someone such a thing.

“Don’t talk.”

He reassured her with a short, firm answer.

Instead of feeling relieved, she was trembling with fear and the amplitude of her body was growing.

“How far did the investigation go, anyway? Information on the magic control item I requested.”

“Oh, is that it?”

When I brought up the request without further questioning about her background, Chase raised her head brightly.

This topic seemed more comfortable to talk about.

“I contacted the Mage Tower and hired someone from the information guild to conduct quite a lot of investigations. Now I just need to organize it, can I tell you the results of the investigation in advance?”

She took a pile of parchment paper from her bag.

Parchments with various requests for information written on them.

Among them, I picked out the Demesis quest information parchment marked with an asterisk as important.

“There is an ancient text that says that mythical items are hidden somewhere in the Eastern Great Labyrinth. However, this is difficult to interpret and the literature itself is severely damaged, making it less reliable. You can see that Shinhwa level is hard to find.”

“hmm…”

She fixes her round glasses properly and speaks while looking through the parchment.

His meticulous and meticulous personality is revealed in his clear voice.

As she said, it seemed like it would be hard to find a Shinhwa class.

“Though, fortunately, I was able to find several information about legendary items. At that time, I marked a more accurate location for the Giant King’s Gauntlet that I mentioned. I have confirmed that the Southern ‘Thousand Eyes’ and the Mage Tower’s ‘Infinity Ring’ are also very effective in controlling magic.”

She showed the parchment and gave detailed information.

I mentally pulled out the parchment she held out and read its contents.

The names, characteristics, history, and acquisition methods of the magic control items that were investigated were described in detail.

“That’s good information. So, did you find a way to fix the bracelet?”

This time, I raised my left arm and showed her the bracelet I was wearing.

I also asked how to fix this.

“Yes, that should be resolved at the Mage Tower. There are wizards who know how to make similar items. A member of our information guild has been contacted.”

She raised her chin and spoke in a proud tone.

I’ve done a neat investigation on what I requested, so I proudly spread my shoulders.

“I get it. Tell me about that wizard later.”

“Yes, Demesis.”

Chase nodded.

At this point, the results of the request were satisfactory.

I kept the information she gave me in my head and packed up the parchment.

“I said that the information fee could be calculated at that time. How much can I pay?”

“Yes, the information fee…”

She chose her answer carefully for a moment.

“It’s not worth asking for gold coins from Demesis. Let me ask you this one thing. Ji-ji, do you really eat people?”

“…What kind of stupid question is that all of a sudden after going well? Why am I eating people?”

“That, right? hahahaha… I thought my question was a bit odd? To think that someone as great as Demesis would do such a barbaric act. There are so many absurd rumors…”

Chase bowed her head, embarrassed and embarrassed, and fumbled with her glasses frame.

Then speak with flowing words.

“No, they said terrible things about catching and eating monsters. People are really scary…”

She catches her heart and breathes. I let out a long sigh of relief, no matter what I was worried about.

however.

“Didn’t monsters sometimes catch and eat them? It was delicious.”

It was quite delicious when I actually caught and ate the monster.

There was a time when I went to the Western Horseshoe and ate edible ones, and it was a good delicacy.

“Sobbing.”

Chase slipped off the chair making a strange noise.

I hurriedly grab my bag and run away.

“What’s wrong with catching and eating monsters? It’s just like you guys hunting animals. Why are you frightened?”

“Oh, no. Hey, how do you eat monsters! If you eat that, you will get sick and die!”

“Even though my digestion is going well.”

Before she knew it, she crawled out and ran to the bed.

I grabbed the bed sheet with one hand and opened my mouth.

I thought I was getting better, but I was afraid again.

“Are you going to keep running away like that?”

“No, I’m not running away! Eh, I was so scared that my body… Ah, anyway, that’s right, the business is over, right?”

She is holding on to the bedspread like a lifeline.

The sheets, which were neat, get distorted for no reason.

“Okay, so stop breaking my bed.”

“Ugh, whoops! sorry!”

She hurriedly let go of the sheet and stood up.

“Hey, can I go out, can I?”

“okay.”

Chase accepted permission and quickly grabbed the doorknob of the Demesis break room.

I was about to leave, but I was startled and looked back.

I stared vaguely at her back.

I checked the gaze hidden under the hood.

She often walks away and returns cautiously.

“Me, De, Demesis-sama?”

“?”

“Eh, if you happen to talk to me next time. Now, don’t come to catch me, can I use this?”

I placed a magic board on a chair far away from me.

It was the same as the magic board she had taken out at the information guild.

The use of sending and receiving messages with magical power.

“Oh, oh, don’t get me wrong! My, rather than feeling burdened with Demesis-nim… Actually, it’s true that it’s burdensome. I’m so scared. I was so scared that I couldn’t even talk to you even though the information investigation was over… Well, if you use this, I’ll be able to answer more comfortably. Is that okay?”

She said again with tears in her eyes.

“I get it. This would be better than running away in the open.”

I pulled the magic board with telekinesis and placed it on the table I was sitting on.

“Go, thank you!”

She politely bowed and dropped her head a couple of times before leaving the private break room.

I looked down at the magic board on the table.

Now that I know her face, I will continue to take classes in the same classroom anyway, so having this will make it easier to talk to her.

Conversing on the board would be better than other students who had never talked to each other.

I looked at the parchments lying on the table.

After all, in order to reduce the students’ fear of me, I need to quickly collect magic control items.

On the other hand, an inn near the academy where Silian lives.

Broa still clung to Silian and did not fall off.

“Brea, it will be fine. Are you okay? He even drove you to the infirmary.”

“Huh, no. will kill me I even attacked him. The necklace my brother gave me activated, and the man was on fire. hehehe.”

Broa sat on the bed, hugged the blanket, and sobbed.

It’s been this way ever since I picked it up from the infirmary yesterday.

He was so scared of Demesis that he couldn’t even think of going to the academy and shut himself up in the corner of his room.

“What the hell happened? Why did the necklace activate? What else are you talking about attacking him?”

“All the trees in the vicinity were uprooted, the sky darkened, the shower suddenly poured and thunderstorms continued, and the man… kyaaak!”

As she explained, she screamed as if she was afraid again.

“What is Demesis? What did Demesis do?”

“He got angry about why he was here, but the flame magic exploded again and stabbed him… The rune pattern on Demesis’ burning body… Huh.”

Just the thought of Demesis made Broa stomp and shudder.

Seeing how serious her condition was, Silian held her head in one hand.

“He was fine. And I probably never meant to hurt you. So calm down.”

“no. He didn’t like me, he tried to kill me. It’s my fault. I was wrong. sorry. Whoa.”

Broa is praying to the invisible Demesis on her face.

My eyes were swollen from crying all day.

Silian continued to use the [Recovery] magic on her and said.

“Broa. If you’re so concerned, I’ll ask Demesis directly. What do you think? I heard that Demesis is taking the ‘Introduction to Basic Life Magic’ class. I am the teaching assistant for that class.”

From noble mtl dot com

“That, is it? But then, what about my brother? is your brother okay? Can you ask Demesis?”

“It will be fine. If he really meant to hurt you, you’d be dead already, so you’re going to be okay?”

“Aww! scared! Don’t be too scary with words!”

Silian cast [Recovery] on Broa, who was about to cry again.

He had been comforting her all day today.

Silian is also in trouble because of the defense item he gave for Broa.
