Chapter 14 (Cocoon)
At night, Decraas lay in bed, thinking about tomorrow's work and translating scrolls. He always felt that the ancient scroll could give him some clues about the cause of his death, so that he could solve the mystery of the cause of death and find the murderer who killed him.
Now he only had a few clues, elves, soul magic, the ruins of the temple of the evil god, and this scroll.
Judging from these few clues, a simple, preliminary reasoning appeared in Decraas's mind. On the day he died, Cohen and an elf, or several elves, stopped him on his way to the church where he worked. * Forced him to join them and go with them to the ruins, but he did not agree, and the people and the elves, seeing that he knew their purpose but did not want to join, killed them!!
Although this is only a preliminary inference, De Kras feels that this is very close to the truth. Although it is very likely that it is the opposite of the truth.
Thinking of this, Deklaas glanced out of the brightly lit window, and for some reason, sighed softly.
It's likely to be a miss for Kami. If you fall in love with someone by picking up the parable, you will let go of the parable and forget. Then Deklaas is definitely the kind of person who can't let go of it if he picks it up.
Moreover, because Kami dissipated in front of him, when he came to Kami's childhood hometown, he couldn't help but think of the fierce spirit who loved to laugh and kill.
In this longing for Kami, Deklaas tightly grasped the pendant inlaid with Kami's soul beads and slept quietly.
Early the next morning, Deklaas went to report to his workplace. Although he is not a real military alchemist, he Xiang Shen is also one of the alchemists under the management of the army. Therefore, Deklaas, who came to Karma Defus purely for himself and his daughter, also had to report for duty.
Looking at those alchemists who came here to help like themselves, they were all mid-level alchemists. High-level alchemists, counting him, are only three people.
Although in terms of manpower, this node city controlled by the Fierce Wolf Empire is much less than that of other node cities. However, with the efforts of the three attacking alchemists, including Deklaas, the first day's work was completed in less than three hours.
Next, Deklaas went to the library, where he searched for textbooks for learning the Elves of Daylight. I don't know if it's because the Sunlight Elves are too rare, and there are very few Elves who speak the language of the Sunlight Elves, and Deklaas searched for a long time in the bookcase, but he couldn't find it. Then...
"Hello, Your Excellency Alchemist. Is there anything you can help with??" a sweet female voice came into the ears of Deklaas, who was rummaging through the shelves looking for a book for the Sunlight Elf language textbook.
It was the voice of a half-elf with beautiful short purple hair. The half-elf was a human-elf half-blood, and it was barely recognizable except for some pointed ears.
"Hello, I'd like to find a language textbook or dictionary for the Solar Elves. Do you know where it is??" said Deklaas, smiling at the half-elf.
"Hey!! ”
"So!!!, can you find out??" asked Deklaas, as soon as he heard that he had put it away.
"Of course, if there's any trouble, you don't have to look for it. Seeing that the half-elf had a sad face, Deklaas hurriedly said again.
"Your Excellency Alchemist, if you are not in a hurry, you can come back tomorrow. At that time, the books you need, will definitely be ready. The half-elf smiled and saluted Deklaas, then said.
"Oh well. Thank you very much. ”
"You're welcome. ”
Knowing that he would not be able to translate the book until tomorrow, Deklaas smiled and left the library.
As soon as Deklaas left, the half-elf breathed a sigh of relief. Then he sneaked a glance at a book on a bookshelf not far away. I thought to myself, "It's good you didn't find it, otherwise, things would have been in trouble." ”
Unfortunately, she didn't realize that Deklaas hadn't actually gone far, he was standing not far outside the library. I was looking at the book that the half-elf was reading gloomily. The corners of his mouth were slightly outlined, and a dangerous smile was struck.
That book, Deklaas had actually discovered a long time ago. Hohenheim's Necronomicon Codex!!Hohenheim is the most evil necromancer in the history of the Elves!!He is a true believer in the Grim Reaper, killing elves, humans, orcs, and more. No wonder the half-elf was so worried!!
But Deklaas thought it was funny, that kind of terrible thing, it was still on the shelf, didn't he make trouble for himself??
When I got home, it was already time for lunch. But what Milina and Rita had prepared made the corners of Deklaas's mouth twitch a little. It's all fruits!!
Although it is said that most of the elves are vegetarians, the elves who eat only fruit completely, Deklaas has not heard of it. And now he wants to be an undead who only eats fruit, which really makes him a little unacceptable.
"Milena, this is... What's going on??I just saw a lot of vegetables and monster meat on the street, why is our family..."Although he is an undead who doesn't care if he eats or not, Deklaas can't stand a meal of just eating fruit!!
"Uh... It's not lunch, it's just, lunch... Possible... Maybe... It seems like... It's paste..."Looking at Deklaas, whose mouth twitched, Milina was very worried, and said intermittently.
"Uh... Let's go out to eat. "Obviously, Deklaas had forgotten his daughter and couldn't cook at all. In desperation, Deklaas had to take his two daughters out to eat.
At the same time, a huge cold air flow was erupting in the secret place of the Star Elves, freezing the entire place into an ice cave!
It was as if I was looking at something very, very scary!!
Suddenly, the atmosphere here changed dramatically, and gusts of wind blew out from the cocoon, blowing the thick ice around it to pieces!!
"Click~!!!" A soft sound sounded, and I saw a crack open on the cocoon. A golden eye, in the crack, stared viciously at the old man with white hair!!
