Chapter 33: Alice's Reminder
"Congratulations, what are you thinking?Yuri, Marquis?" Jack dodged in front of Ariel, and it was clear that Yuri was coming for Ariel.
"I don't have anything in mind, I think you know me well, Your Majesty. Yuri spread his hands, "I'm just here to offer blessings and gifts to the new marquis, because of the haste in which the preparations were made, so there are no decent gifts." ”
Nilou walked up to Ariel with what looked like a jewel box, and before everyone could react, the jewel box appeared in Ariel's hand.
"It's just a ring. Yuri looked at Ariel as if he were looking at someone else.
"There are no traps or traps, so please take them. ”
"This is what my sister used to wear, huh?"
"Please keep it safe. ”
"I take my leave, then, Your Majesty. Yuri bowed to Jack as he spoke, and walked out of the auditorium.
Perhaps to the unreasonable, this group of people is simply a group of nobles who came to congratulate them, but only Jack and Louise know their past.
It was a lifelong affair that made Jack feel guilty, and it could even be said that the confrontation between the undead and humans was just his own doing.
―――――――――――――――――― cutting ――――――――――――――――――――
In the undead continent when Jack was young, there was no undead in the form of a humanoid like Yuri, and of course there would be no such thing as a void.
It's just a continent made up of skeletons or lichs and some headless horseman.
They don't have much intelligence, but their numbers are unusually large, occupying a continent, and even humans can't do anything about them.
Yuri was originally the Marquis of the closest city to the Continent of the Dead, and was tasked with surveillance. The quest to defend against the undead.
At the same time, it is also an existence like Jack's brother.
Until one day, Yuri's city, for unknown reasons, broke out of a strange plague.
All those infected with the plague become undead-like creatures, and some part of their body will inexplicably decay and grow something like white bones.
And began to hunt those humans who were not infected with the plague.
No one knows why there is such a strange plague. Even Yuri himself didn't know until he saw that his wife had contracted the plague and began to pounce on him.
Yuri couldn't resist his wife, but when he opened his eyes, he found his own wife who had turned into dust and dissipated, and Jack with a sword.
After that, a mad Yuri forces Jack back and flees to the Continent of the Dead. Then his guards and two sisters chased after him.
What happened to Jack after that was completely unclear, and by the time he saw Yuri again, he was already on the battlefield.
And it was as if he had become infected with the plague.
If I had been a little more rational at the time, maybe ......
But now that it's happened, it's not the time to be distressed.
――――――――――――――――― ――――――――――――――――――――
Yuri's visit didn't cause much of a stir, and soon after they left, the nobles began to talk again. Immediately after the music sounded, many nobles pulled their dance partners to dance.
As the protagonist of today's banquet. Naturally, Ariel received a lot of attention, but all the men walked over with anticipation. Then he walked back with a regretful face.
"Did you fail too?" Chris patted Hagen's shoulder as he sighed, "I thought you had a better chance of success." ”
"I probably already know the results, but I still want to give it a try. Hagen wasn't too upset. "Chris, aren't you going to give it a try? I think you're going to make it." ”
"Me? Chris's hand in his pocket unconsciously clenched a small box.
In the end, not only did he not have the courage to do that, but he couldn't even invite her to dance.
Actually, it's not that Ariel doesn't want to, but she doesn't know how to do it at all, and she became the playboy herself the next day. There's no time left to train for dance.
Anne seemed to pause a little as she pulled Anna past her, but Ariel really couldn't dance.
Looking at Anne, who was pulling Anna to dance as if she was angry, Ariel leaned against the wall and sighed.
"Well, what's the matter, my little marquis?" said Alice, handing Ariel a glass of juice.
"Are you upset to see your goddess dancing with others?"
"No. As a result, Ariel of the juice took a casual sip. The juice bottomed out.
"It's just that I can't dance, but Alice, no one has invited you. ”
"Ah, with that, I unleashed a spell on myself that no one would notice me. ”
What kind of self-created hunting magic is this?
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen you for a while, and I don't even have those cheating tasks. ”
"Actually, I've had some things lately, so I don't have time to give you a task. Alice changed her undisciplined smile and became serious. "You've been to Vivien before. ”
"Vivien? Oh, that Poseidon. ”
"I guess you know something, I've recently noticed that some of the demon's pieces have started to put together, so I have to find them and seal them. ”
"What about Hazama?" Alice said, pulling a whistle from her bracelet.
"Turns out Vivien has already given you this. For the first time, Alice began to speak seriously: "Then Ariel, because that demon can possess a soulless person, so I hope that the next time you encounter such a situation, you must use your whistle to ask Vivien for help, and don't fight alone."
That demon is so powerful that even a small fragment of your soul can make you cry in minutes. ”
After all, Alice, you still don't have a serious time.
However, Ariel is deeply aware that part of the fragment of the Hazama she encountered on Dragon Island last time almost killed herself. In the end, he didn't know what was going on, and the small universe exploded to beat him.
Then, how powerful is Vivien, who has the ability to suppress the soul of the Lord of Hazama.
"Well, I've reminded everything I can. Alice patted Ariel's shoulder: "It's a personal help, I have to remind Ariel, there is an assassin in this banquet?"
