Annan failed to take the map of the library.

Sauron revered Annan and was willing to give his life for his lordship, but on the other side was his own teacher, who could only kneel at the door, begging Annan not to take the library's possessions.

The number of visitors to the library was increasing, and the thin-skinned Annan had no choice but to put down the map and go out empty-handed.

In the distance, the city wall was in full swing, and the second group of reserve guards were training under the leadership of the knights, and Annan raised his head at the white dragon leaping in the bay, and responded to the greetings of the residents of the street and came to the beach.

The boy has a bucket full of sea fish at his feet, and he is taming the white dragon in the manner that Annan has taught.

"Your solution is useful, they love it!" The boy said excitedly.

It's the nature of creatures to hunt, but it's better to get something for nothing.

"Where's the necklace for you?"

"Here!" The boy pulls out a magic necklace from his pocket, which is inscribed with defensive spells and teleportation, which are valuable but can save the white dragon when he gets out of control.

"Wear it, it protects you."

Annan "helps" the boy with a few fish, returns to the street, and meets Ingrid, who has come to find him.

"Where are you going?"

"Uh...... Dungeon. "Actually, it's wandering around without a purpose.

"You're going to Della there? Then you ask what she is doing, why the recently released prisoners always go around looking for trouble and let the guards arrest them. ”

"Also, they caught a man who was transformed into a dog by Transfiguration, and the dog was proven innocent, so you can bring it out too."

"Okay."

The dungeon is a place that is not to be liked, and it is naturally full of chaos and gore. However, because of the just laws of Starmoon Bay, everyone does not reject the dungeon - but there is no reason why people would fall in love with it.

Turning a street, the walls of the dungeon come into view - the dungeon in Starmoon Bay should technically be called a prison, as it is built entirely on the surface, exactly like the dungeon in Redemption of Beta. As for the prisoners escaping...... Jailers: Large earth elementals will knock them out and drag them back to the dungeon.

Annan wondered if this was the reason why the prisoners always came back. They want to "cruise the Holy Land"?

The human jailer, who looked like a rooster with a puffed out chest, opened the door and led Annan to Dela, who was punishing the prisoner: the innocent dog was bound with ropes and covered in bruises, while Deira held the long whip with a haughty and cold expression.

"Ingrid said that many prisoners have gone out and come back recently, do you have any clue?"

"I don't know." Deella said.

Annan had no choice but to ask Deella to stop first: "It's innocent." ”

"It? You also think I'm not human? You eggless—"

Smack-

The loud sound of whipping echoed in the execution chamber, and Dela, who was whipping the air, said, "He is Annan." ”

"—Jack, whom the women love." The tied dog screamed, "Let me be your dog!" ”

Annan asked the jailer to release the ...... Mr. Dog, apologize: "I'm sorry for misunderstanding you, you can go to the administrative officer to ask for compensation." ”

"Compensation? Is it okay to give me ten more lashes? ”

Well, Annan already has the answer, and then asked Deira to stop "disciplining" the prisoner.

"Nope! Lord Annan, even if I admire you, I will oppose your statement! If the warden is not allowed to carry out the execution, who would want to come to the dungeon! ”

"What kind of dungeon is you?"

Annan had no choice but to tactfully tell Deira that the warden didn't need to do it himself, and that she could promote the deputy warden or do nothing.

Annan, who came out with the bald dog and completed what Ingrid had explained, rightly continued to wander around, under the pretext of getting rid of the shadow of nightmares and druid warnings. This leisurely continued into the evening, shattered by the discovery of the new Primordial.

"You won't believe what we've seen......" said Fast with unprecedented seriousness.

……

In the candlelit basement, naked Deira knelt reverently, a hideous, terrible shadow slowly emerged—but bloated like a layer of fluff.

"What is this......" a hoarse whisper came from Dela's mouth.

"What?"

A force prevented Deira from raising her head.

"Why haven't you performed a blasphemy ceremony yet......"

"Mistress, I arranged the ritual according to your oracle, but nothing happened. I think it's because the king of the north is fake......"

"Fake ......"

"Yes, Breez has been rumored to be dead in the real Levi, and an imposter disguised as him."

"Prepare for a new blasphemy ritual...... Let the impostor have sex with his sister and let everyone know, or let her and her sister serve the King of the North together......"

"It's going to be a long time, Mistress."

"It won't be long...... The end of the North is near, and they will be forced to reunite. You stay here, and I'm going to leave for a while......"

"Where are you going?"

After asking, a dull moan of pain suddenly overflowed between Dela's lips.

"This shell no longer fits my ......"

The bloated shadows and hoarse whispers disappeared at the same time.

……

"Everyone here, every soldier, every nobleman, all of them don't know that the nezumi are heading north, and they don't know that the Violet Kingdom has fallen."

The new Primordial follows the McCain Ratmen and overtakes them, only to find that the town ahead is still quiet.

"Haven't you had time to tell them about the impending rat plague?"

"No...... The cavalry of the royal capital came, and they said that it was just a group of rat men wandering. ”

Annan frowned: "Have you told them the truth?" ”

"It's dangerous...... "Francois cautioned," "we'd better not get involved in the conspiracy......"

Annan was silent. And they don't necessarily believe it.

A sailing ship of unknown origin docks, warning of doom and disaster in a quiet time...... People will only find it suspicious of them.

An invisible force is preventing the truth from reaching the center of the kingdom's power. A nezumi clan has devoured the Violet Kingdom and is encroaching on the Rikanr Kingdom, but the magnates of the royal capital still think that it is just a slightly larger swarm of rats......

Annan suddenly caught a glimpse of a vast web of intrigues: the hollows beneath Breeze, the disconnection of the gods, and the escape of the druids and the nightmares of foresight......

The nezumi have spent hundreds of years laying out the conspiracy, and now, it's time to carry it out.

"I see...... Stay away from the coast and stay safe. ”

During the Council of the Holy Temple, the High King asked the surrounding forces to inform the kingdom of Rikaner, but now it seems that they have failed, and the news has not been successfully reached to the royal capital.

The solution Annan thought of was to leave it to someone more powerful: enter the temple and tell the kings the news. However, the opening of the temple can only be when a major event occurs, such as the fall of the entire kingdom of Rikanr - but Starmoon Bay is also within the kingdom.

Then there is only one way left - to take the initiative to make a major event.
