"Del Kora, what's going on?"

"He's mentally exhausted. ”

He ...... Did he go for a clue himself?"

"Who knows. When he wakes up, let him speak for himself. ”

It's Satya? And Assas......

Am I not fighting?

Dizzy...... Disgusting......

In a daze, Delkora vaguely felt something stuffed into her hand. He subconsciously held it tightly, and his spirit suddenly relaxed.

Much more comfortable...... Let's get some sleep......

He relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.

——————————

By the time Del Cora woke up again, it was already the next morning.

Still tired, still unwell. He raised his hand to block out the glare of the sun, and opened it with some difficulty—he still held a gem in his hand.

"Requiem Crystal, ......"

He sat up slowly, put down the requiem crystal and rubbed his eyes.

Not a battlefield, not a student camp as expected, but a room of its own in a hotel. The sun shone on my face through the window, and when I looked up at the clock in my room, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

"What's going on......"

"Don't remember, I pulled you back last night. ”

Satya Del Cora looked back blankly, only to find the teenage Assassin standing against the wall.

"Didn't you sleep all night?"

"Do you think I can sleep?" Satya narrowed her eyes and said in a calm tone, "I feel a little excited to watch the passionate battle and self-sacrificing scene of a certain bastard, thinking about finding a villain to fight, how can I sleep?"

“...... It was an accident, Satya-it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, don't pull your ears-don't pull your face!"

After a long time.

The trio gathered in Del Kora's room, and Assas and Satya looked at a certain dead magician with a cold look on their faces, and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"

“...... It's nothing," Del Cola's face was swollen with unnatural redness, he couldn't help but touch his face, and said with some weakness: "I just went to find a clue last night......"

"Tell me clearly, what clues?" asked Satya.

"Oops, it's really nothing," Del Cora sighed, "Last night the Abyss Card invaded my mental space, and after asking a bunch of strange questions, he suddenly said that he had a clue, but wouldn't tell me. I couldn't sleep after he left, so I thought I'd go to the street and check ......."

Del Cola recounted his experience of last night in great detail, trying to recall every detail - he was the first person involved, and he felt that a lot of information might be hidden in places he didn't expect for a while, and he needed the help of two partners.

"After I released the all-attribute elemental shield, my spiritual power has been exhausted, and I have no memory of what happened next. It's here when I wake up. ”

The monster didn't attack again, dispersed into a black mist and retreated back into town, seemingly unharmed. Satya told him what happened next, "Those two teachers are very angry, probably trying to torture you, I used the dark film world to deceive them, took you to the shadow space and sent you back." ”

"Thank you so much, Satya, otherwise I wouldn't have known how to explain it to them. Delkora scratched her head, "They were the only strong people I could find at that time." ”

"You still say, I look at the expressions of those two teachers, I guess they want to eat you alive. Satya rolled her eyes, "What the hell are you thinking? You're looking for clues, why don't you call us?"

"I really didn't expect this to happen, I just felt the rhythm of the spiritual power level at that time, and only that once, who knew that something so strange would suddenly pop up - physical immunity, mid-level anti-demon skin, the body can transform the virtual into the real, and it can also transform the entity into a black curtain and extend it on a large scale? God knows what kind of strange thing this is?"

"According to your account, that Teacher Leolante and Teacher Kieran are both genuine golden ranks, and they are the more senior kind. "But during the battle, the two teachers basically didn't do any substantial damage to the monster. There are many monsters that can be immune to physical attacks, and soul undead such as ghost mages and banshees are immune to physical attacks, but their magic resistance is all weak without exception. Immune to physical attacks and can also have a mid-level anti-demonic ...... Theoretically, a Ghost Mage can cast elemental defense magic on himself. ”

"I swear, I never noticed any elemental fluctuations in that shadow," Del Cora said, "I didn't even see it use magic, and throughout the battle, it relied on the peculiarities of its own body—including the infinitely expanding black mist and the voidable body. Its melee skills are very good, and Kieran-sensei and his opponents have always been at the bottom. ”

"In other words, this thing is essentially specialized in melee combat?" Assas frowned, "What does the person look like after being attacked by him, is there any poisoning or other negative status?"

"In fact, all his attacks were blocked. Delcora shook his head, "After Mr. Leolante planted the totem pole, he was targeted by that shadow, but all attacks were blocked by Mr. Kieran. The thing had an amazing impact, and the Golden Knight was holding a tower shield and would be knocked backwards by him, but it didn't seem to be affected. ”

"This is impossible to analyze at all," Assas's brow furrowed, "his strength definitely exceeds that of the Gold Rank, at least a Master Rank melee professional, his body can be blurred, he has the talent of magic resistance, and he can also expand into a black shadow with a very large range - this thing cannot be classified as any Magical Beast or intelligent life at all." I suspect he didn't fight seriously, otherwise you wouldn't have survived. ”

"I think so too. There's definitely more to that thing than that. Del Cola's expression became extremely depressed, "Richard said he found a clue, he didn't know about it, where did he go last night, no matter what, a Holy Order can always suppress it, right?"

"The Abyss Card is also looking for clues, and if he hadn't been alarmed by such a big battle last night, I suspect he might have more information than we did - at the very least, he can be sure that you won't die in last night's battle. "Unless being attacked by that thing isn't fatal, but has other consequences?"

"But I really did my best last night, I used four of the ten rings, and the Blazing Torrent had to be charged for seven days before it could be used again, and this time it was a big loss—hey, by the way, Satya, how did you find me last night?"

Obviously he deliberately bypassed the hotel when he ran?

"Look at the little finger of your right hand," Satya was still angry, "If I hadn't marked it in advance, you would have been interrogated by those two teachers in the student camp right now!"

Delkora raised her hand with her right hand, the purple abstract dagger motif on her nails.

"It's ......"

He remembered. This was the mark that Satya had left on his hand through the shadow space the night they had entered Date Town. Del Cora didn't care, turned his head and forgot about it.

"This thing can monitor your mental power fluctuations, and it will alert me when your mental power fluctuations are too large. "I woke up last night when you started your run from the mayor's house, and you left town just after you got dressed, and by the time I arrived, your battle was almost over." If I go a little later, the dark film industry may not be able to fool those two teachers. ”

“...... I see," Delcora said, touching the mark on his finger with some trepidation, "I'm glad I had this......"

"The problem now is that it came out of the mayor's house. Assas pulled back the topic with a serious face, "Are you really sure?

"It's true," Del Kora's expression was serious, "that thing came out of the mayor's house." ”

"The mayor told me that there was no one else in his house, only him and the old butler. He is a trainee warrior, and the old butler used to be a ranger (bronze ranger), but he is already very old and has basically lost the strength of a professional. Todge the Big Dog - That's just an ordinary dog, not even a Warcraft. ”

"So the Shadow is only one of the Mayor and the Old Butler?" said Del Kora.

"Maybe someone is hiding in the mayor's house?" Satya questioned.

"I don't think it's likely. Delkora shook her head, "The first thing that went wrong was when I was about to sneak into the mayor's bedroom. Before my vision could be restored, I was attacked, and the magic water curtain was broken. It's not so much a coincidence as it is that they don't want me to see what's in the mayor's bedroom—I'm more inclined to guess that. ”

"So it's really Mayor Mare?" Satya still couldn't believe it.

"It could also be parasitic or ...... Mind control and the like. This special kind of magic also exists. Assas had a guess, but he didn't dare to draw conclusions, "But anyway, let's go to the mayor's house." It's always good to get up close and personal. ”

"What about today, are you still doing what you planned last night?" asked Satya.

"Of course, those two teachers only saw me, and they don't know about you yet, Satya, you go to sleep first, and go to the student camp in the afternoon to inquire about the news—in addition to such a big matter, there must be a lot of discussion among the students, which is just enough to help us gather information. Assas, if you go to the mayor's house earlier, you will say that you want to know a little about the neighborhood of Landmon, talk more with the old butler, and mention the incident of last night a little, and see if he is suspicious. I'm going to find Richard and explore around a bit more to see if there are any clues I missed last night. ”

"Is your body fit to support you?" asked Assas.

"It's not a big problem, if I don't use magic during the day, I'll be almost able to recover by the evening - but I'll have to take the Requiem with me. Delkora grabbed the blue clear hedron on the side, "That thing is obviously trying to hide its identity, I don't think he will show up during the day." ”

"Then you have to be careful yourself, and if something goes wrong, notify me directly - touch that sign with your mental power, and I will be able to sense your location directly. Up to three kilometers. Satya gestured to his hand.

"I see, I try not to risk it. ”

"As much as possible?"

"Uh...... Certain. ”
