"This is Roktar's inner court," Asa said, gesturing to the overgrown ruins around him, "This is the place where I thought it was the most suspicious when I investigated with the stinky old man, but I didn't find anything. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Is this where Reis lived? Looking at the ruins around him, he seemed to see a blue-haired boy sitting by the garden reading intently, and a red-haired maid was carefully brewing black tea on the side, and the two of them gave people such a warm feeling......

"Sister?" Little Lukala pulled me, interrupting my fantasies.

I shook my head, dispelling the confusion of thoughts, and asked Asa. "Have you searched the underground?"

"Underground? The surroundings are destroyed like this.,If you can still find clues, it's definitely underground.,The problem is that you can't find it.,You can't search with magic.。 Look there," Asa pointed to a few blackened round pits not far away, "that stinky old man finally had no patience to summon a meteorite to smash it, and it was directly shaken by earthquake magic, and if there was any space underground, it would have been discovered in the tremor." ”

"What if it's just a magic array?" Little Luca knew more about magic than I did, and she asked, "Draw a magic circle and build a stone slab on it, won't you find it?" ”

"That Blood Curse in Thresteen can almost be said to have lasted for generations! How could a mere magic array have such an ability? It must have been a massive altar or something. ”

Alas, I sighed, it was called the Curse of Blood, Lacey......

"Anyway, let's look carefully, maybe we can run into it." I was depressed.

"I'm not holding out any hope," Asa shook his head, but still began to search, "Little one, shout when you see a strange imprint pattern or something~"

"Yes!"

Despite his hopelessness, Asa took a few steps to cast a spell, while little Luca hopped around the ruins searching - they were serious, and I should cheer up.

I patted my face, cheered myself up, and joined in the search.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

"Hey, I'm tired, I haven't had anything in the morning." Asa looked at the two of us.

Little Luca was sitting on the ground in a daze.

I shook my head, "You and Grandpa can't find it, I'm—"

"Originally, I wanted to count on your fate to intersect with him to come here to try my luck, can't I find it - that means that the fate between you and that Thresten ends here, give up~" Asa suddenly stepped forward and hugged me, "How about choosing me?" I can accompany you for the rest of your life~~"

"You!" I shook my hand and gave him a slap in the face, "Get out of here!" ”

"Ah, angry—it's worth ...... for that broken man who has another woman in mind," Asa muttered, rubbing his face.

"If you say anything bad about Brother Lacey, Luca, I'll kill you!" Suddenly, little Luca angrily pointed a gun at Asa's throat.

Asa was stunned for a moment, and then retorted, "What do you know? You don't know! ”

"I've seen Luca, I've seen it when Brother Lacey gave her gifts," little Luca smiled sweetly, "He was so gentle with Luca, and he brought honey candy to Luca. ”

"A piece of sugar has been domesticated!!"

"And," little Luca's face flushed, (could it be...... "And once when I helped Brother Lacey bandage his wound, it was obviously very painful, but he patiently asked me to bandage it a few times, and finally touched my head and said that the bandage was so good! ”

Oh - it turns out that the weird bandage on Lacey last time was her handiwork.

"Wouldn't it?! You're down because of this little thing?! Asa continued to scream, "Do you like that guy too?" Not even a girl that small can escape the clutches of the devil - Threstin, you bastard - so envious-"

Really? Looking at little Luca's reddened little face, I was a little dazed.

It seems, that's what happened.

"Anyway......" Luca hesitated, "don't speak ill of Brother Lacey!" Brother Lacey is a hundred times better than you disgusting man, and if I say bad things about him again, I'll-ah! That's right! Sister Sakura! She suddenly looked at me with delight.

“？”

"I've figured it out!" Little Luca danced excitedly, "Elise has also met Brother Lacey, maybe she can help!" ”

"Is that okay?" There was hope in my heart again.

"I thought you had a good idea! Elise again, is that gun omnipotent? Asa continued to scream.

Ignoring Asa's shouts, little Luca thrust Elise on the ground and prayed: "The Great Merciful Holy Spirit Mara ~ My dear Elise ~ Please help me to find the clue we have been hoping for Brother Lacey......"

As little Luca prayed, Elise glowed with an increasingly intense white light, and then suddenly shot out of the ground, plunging headlong into the nearby ground.

"That's it!" Little Luca affirmed.

"How is this possible!" Asa ran forward with us, shouting in disbelief, "Even the Spirit Gun doesn't have this function!" ”

Little Luca pulled out Elise from the ground and looked at him triumphantly.

The tip of the spear pierced the ground, revealing a deep hole underneath.

"Found it!" I couldn't suppress the ecstasy in my heart, and immediately leaned over and picked up the dirt.

"Wait! Asa pulled me away, "Maybe there's a trap, be careful." ”

"But ......"

"It's not like Luca doesn't understand your feelings, sister," little Luca also grabbed me, "but what my disgusting brother said is right." ”

"So what now?"

"Even if there are no traps, how long do you dig with your hands? - It's time for my invention to come into play," Asa pulled us back a few steps, "It's better to leave the excavation to the moving statue." Asa had a long list of languages out of his mouth that I didn't understand.

Elvish? Elven magic?

"Disgusting brother, as a human, how can he know elven magic?" Little Luca is also weird.

Halfway through, Asa shouted, "Come out!" My lover! ”

As he shouted, thin streams of water gradually emerged from the ground around us, accumulating more and more in front of us.

"It's not elven magic," Asa smugly, "yes, it's elven language, but it's just a ritual I use to summon - I don't know exactly, this is an accidental invention after I used their principles to cast my water magic while studying elven magic." ”

"Accidentally?" Looking at the column of water that had accumulated to the height of three people and was gradually forming and frozen, I exclaimed, "Asa, you are indeed a genius in magic!" ”

"Hehe~ admire me, right?"

"Well...... Admire? ――I'll take it back just now! It's disgusting! Looking at the formed icicles, I turned to face Asa, "I really want to strangle you!" ”

"Hey, hey! You've already done it! Don't use that much force! Calm down! Calm down! Vomit! ”

"Disgusting brother, you're really not ordinary disgusting, forget it when you're dead." Little Luca also looked at Asa with a look of disgust.

Ahead, how to put it, is a huge ice statue.

A translucent blue statue.

That look and face shape are clearly me.

-- *'s me.

"How do you tell me to calm down? How do you tell me to calm down? I grabbed him by the neck and shook it desperately, "Make it go away!" ”

In the end, it was little Luca who destroyed the disgusting statue.

"Huhu, almost died." Asa rubbed the red mark on his neck, "That's called art, but I've been concentrating on painting for a long time." ”

“……”

"Forget it, summon a normal one, right?" Seeing that we ignored him, he waved his hand in a boring way, "Come out, Ice Giant!" ”

An ice giant immediately appeared in front of us.

So fast? ――Could it be that the Elven language just now was just for the purpose of making fine statues?

Luka and I looked at each other.

"I really can't stand this man, I'll go crazy with him if I've been with him for a long time." I rubbed the corners of my forehead. Little Luca nodded in agreement.

"It's that you don't know how to appreciate it, although it's not very suitable for digging in the earth - it's a pity that I'll only do this, so let's do it. Giant! Go dig it," Asa commanded the Ice Giant.

The ice giant stepped forward and dug a large hole in a few moments.

Asa stopped us and stepped forward himself: "En...... There are no traps, ah, there are torches, come here. With that, he took the lead and went inside.

We followed into the hole.

In front of him was a large hall like a church, with two rows of columns erected in the middle, and Asa was lighting the torches on the pillars as he walked forward. As the light of the fire gradually lit up, the deepest part of the hall was faintly visible as an altar with a white curtain.

"It's weird to have a lot of magic fluctuations here, I don't know what type it is," Asa said, "no wonder we haven't been able to find it - it's hidden." ”

When we walked up to the altar, we saw a rectangular wooden box in the center of the altar, and a piece of yellow paper with a strange pattern was attached to the joint between the lid and the body. The middle of the paper has been broken.

Could it be ...... I opened the box—and my heart sank.

Empty.

"Looks like someone has taken it," said Assa, "and the box contains something like a scepter or a sword, right?" Maybe that's what the Legion is for. As he spoke, he lit two more candles on the altar.

"Sister! You see! Little Luca suddenly shouted.

Asa and I hurriedly looked up, and in the light of the candles, we saw that the curtains around us were painted with pale yellow patterns, although I don't know what they were, but they were exactly the same as those on the box.

"Let's see what other clues are around!"

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

"No, it seems that the only thing found is this pattern," Asa said, removing the curtain and spreading it on the ground, which had been broken in many places due to age.

"It's not like a painting of a magic circle - leave him alone, copy it down and bring it back first," Asa took out the parchment and ink, recited the incantation, and poured the ink directly onto the paper.

It's his invention again, right? But now I only feel tired and don't bother to ask.

The key things were taken away.

Is this all you can find here?

Is there no way to undo Lacey's curse?

What am I going to do?

"Hey! Miss Sakura, cheer up! Originally, we were here to find some clues about Lacey! ”

"En, sister, we've already found this, if it doesn't work, let's go to the funeral corps and ask for the things in the box!" Little Luca was also comforting me.

“…… Little one, do you know what the Burial Corps is? Will they give it to you? Asa was a little helpless.

"It's always a direction," little Luca smiled, "Okay~Sister~ Let's go out." ”

Yes. I barely bred myself together and touched little Luca's head. "Yes, thank you. Asa, is the painting done?

Asa showed me the paper.

It was perfectly drawn.

"I always think that this spell of yours is intended to be used to draw beautiful women......" Little Luca sighed.

I feel the same way.

"Hehe, I was guessed~" Asa sneered, "Let's take this back, shall we?" ”

"Well," I nodded, "maybe grandpa will understand what this is, and then we'll go to the city of Kesir to find the Orientals, and we'll find a way after all." I turned to little Luca, "Is Luca coming with us?" ”

"No, sister, I'm going back to church."

"That's right......" I was a little regretful, "thank you Luca this time~ If it weren't for you—"

"It's Elise who helps~ When the tour is over, Luca, I'll go find my sister, you and Brother Lacey will play~"
