“I looked through this man’s memories, it seems that there are parts that have visited young master’s memorial before us.”
In Lee Han-seong’s memory, the video of the surveillance camera he saw before they came here showed three people guarding a girl holding a bouquet.
“That’s good news.”
“Who were them?”
Ian nodded, and Priesia asked who the three were.
“I don’t know.”
The problem was that the image quality of the video the man saw was blurry. It was also difficult to determine because the group, who had arrived in front of the memorial before them, changed their clothes to blend in with the crowd.
“Based on the atmosphere, I think Miss Sera was there.”
There were four women in the group who came over here…
The woman she saw in the video was not short, so Iril was automatically excluded. Nainiae and Priesia were here, so there was a high probability that the woman who appeared in the video would be Sera.
“I think there were two other people, but I don’t know about the other two.”
In the video, Nainiae noticed Sera’s outfit had been changed and even realized that at least one among the two people next to her had knowledge of this world.
If it’s not young master, it must be Abyss. Or… both.
Nainiae, who thought she had gotten quite a lot of harvest from the memory of the man in a suit, used the teleport she had been preparing and glanced at the barrier just before disappearing.
“For now, we will move.”
In addition to what happened at the memorial, after the end of a certain warrior and the demon king… Nainiae, who had been keeping information about what had happened in this world for a year, also disappeared with her group.
“…uh, hmm?”
The barrier disappeared, and the hypnotic magic ran out of its effect.
“Wh, what?”
As if waking up from a good night’s sleep, Lee Han-seong stretched out and realized that he was in front of the memorial stone of a certain warrior when he opened his eyes. He had a blank look on his face.
“Why am I here?”
Lee Han-seong rubbed his sleepy eyes and messed up his hair once as he didn’t know what was going on, and grumbled.
“Well, I have to work overtime every day, so even if I get narcolepsy… There’s nothing strange about it.”
*****
“…we move.”
Abyss, who seemed to kill time while leaning against the wall of the alley, turned his head slightly and muttered.
“Move? What?”
Before they knew it, the awkwardness between them was reduced a lot.
Iril, who was sitting next to him, tilted her head as he was saying something and asked. Abyss stood up and answered.
“One of the parts… Either Riley or Nainiae used mana. Although the distance is quite far, we’ll have to chase it anyway.”
As Abyss rose from his seat and answered, Andal, who was sleeping drooling on his shoulder, floundered over the floor.
“Uh-huh, huh? What?!”
Iril, who almost burst into laughter at Andal’s startled look as he floundered over the floor, secretly turned her head and snuggled.
“You had enough hibernation, didn’t you?”
“Hibernation?”
“Then, let’s get going now.”
“…?”
When the person who was responsible for making him hibernate told them to move, Andal wiped the saliva dripping down his chin with his sleeve and looked at Iril as if something was suspicious.
“We, we have to move. Abyss…”
“Abyss?”
“…”
“Since when did you two start talking casually?”
“That’s…”
As Iril blurred out the end of her words and avoided Andal’s eyes, Abyss took a step forward and answered instead.
“We became close while you were hibernating. We can discuss that later. The first thing we need to do is move quickly.”
Perhaps he didn’t like the way Abyss spoke in a commanding tone to him, Andal began to grind his teeth with a tendon protruding from his forehead.
“D*mn demon king… I give orders! Do you understand?”
“From here to the north, I sensed mana’s flow about 15 minutes away. We have to go there.”.
“Hmm?”
Andal, who was swearing at Abyss’s words, also seemed to have grasped the situation. He turned his head to where he was pointing and concentrated his consciousness.
