"ha······?"
I didn't react right away.
"Oh oh oh! Is this what it is?" Kellas yelled and looked at me excitedly.
"Ha! Boss Lin, this time I am finally smarter than you!"
Although the tone should be triumphant, the sadness in the words is really regrettable.
"Imagine it carefully~ Don't you see that Viril turned into a tree spirit because she lived a long time?" Kelras said with a smile and hugged Viril's neck.
bass!
The sword light flashed, and Kellas avoided Villier with a look of fear.
"So - I became a god because of my faith! I'm not a tree spirit at all!" Villier narrowed her eyes dangerously and said.
"No, don't care so much about your origin! All in all, it's been a long time, right?" Kellas waved his hands and said with a smile.
Villier sighed and said: "No matter what, this is impolite behavior - not only for me, I'm afraid it is also the same for this lady."
Um...Miss?
"Am I the only one who doesn't know where the person you are talking about is?" I twitched the corners of my eyes slightly and complained as I looked at these guys who seemed to be playing charades.
Kyle Rath raised his hand quite happily and said, "I can't see it either, because I guessed it, haha!"
No need to interrupt any questions!
"Puch."
Just when I suppressed the desire to complain in my heart, a slightly abrupt laughter came out.
······It is indeed a female voice.
Nolan Lusi looked at me with a helpless expression.
"Look, that's it."
"Ah - it seems like I can't pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore." A soft voice came from behind the tree, and the slightly narrow top floor echoed slightly.
"After all, two adults have discovered me, so it would be rude not to show up."
Along with the sound, a touch of emerald hair emerged from behind the tree trunk.
"...Hey?!" After seeing the person in person, I couldn't help but make a sound of surprise.
"Why, are you much more mature than you thought?" the owner of the voice said jokingly, "There's probably nothing we can do about it. In such a quiet place, no matter how big or small the sound is, it can still appear clearly, so Just being able to hear my own voice is enough for me.”
"Sorry." I'm not sure why, but I feel an inexplicable feeling of guilt in my heart.
But then again, it was probably because it was too big, so the evil thoughts were cut off by my own sense of morality after they evaporated in an instant.
In front of him was a girl with a rather majestic figure although she was slightly thin.
She was wearing a white dress, and her fair face had an innocent smile that made it impossible to have evil thoughts, and her jewel-like eyes were slightly shining with starlight.
The waterfall-like hair hangs down to her ankles, making people worry that the girl will trip over it——
Then she tripped.
In full view of everyone, he stepped on his hair and lost his balance unprepared, then fell to the ground.
At that moment, the already quiet top floor suddenly became even quieter.
It's quiet now, and even the girl just now is lying on the ground motionless.
For a long time, I stretched out my hand, wondering if I should give it a tug.
However, just when I stretched out my hand, her hand suddenly clicked on mine, and then she stood up.
It's like I pulled her up.
······Are you the face-saving type?
"Thank you, young man." She smiled softly, "I have not moved around here for too long, so this really makes the adults laugh."
Her smile was quite innocent, but looking at her somewhat red face, I couldn't help but smile softly.
"Are you OK."
"I'm not that fragile." She said with a red face.
"Sorry - but I still have a question to ask, why do you call us adults?" I smiled awkwardly and stood up.
"...Huh?" The expression of the girl in front of me suddenly became stagnant, "Wait, wait, aren't the adults here to investigate?"
"Although the investigation is an investigation, we are considered to be a self-organized organization. If you insist on saying so, it is probably more appropriate to call it an expedition team." I rubbed my chin and said.
The girl in front of her let out a soft cry, then waved her hands in a hurry and said: "Huh, sorry, I thought the signal I sent out was finally discovered, so-"
The signal sent out?
I frowned slightly.
Could it be that it was detected by the demon hunter, so the trial agency was summoned?
The girl seemed to have remembered something and suddenly shouted anxiously; "In that case, you have to leave this place quickly. Only the adults can resist those monsters!!"
"Monster?" The doubts in my heart became more and more as the girl told me.
However, this is obviously not the time to talk about this.
Nolan Lusi was also aware of this. She took a step across and came to the girl's side. She frowned and said, "Stop shouting. Tell me first, something is affecting this place."
"Hey - but, but that thing is really dangerous, and ordinary people can't deal with it!" The girl said stubbornly, "We can't let ordinary people get involved in this matter under any circumstances. Only the official can do this I can handle it. If you are not officially sent, I might as well seal myself away——"
"The official website you mentioned most likely no longer exists." Nolan Lusi said lightly, "Although it's not clear who you contacted and came here with great interest, it's obvious that you can't do it now. As you wish."
"...Am I being deceived?" The girl's face turned red and white, looking very angry. "In this case, I have no choice but to go back!"
"Please, leave." The girl bit her lip and said, "If you don't leave quickly, something more terrible will happen. I can't guarantee your safety -"
"If things are like this, there will be no way to solve it in the future." Nolan Lusi said lightly, "The country you mentioned no longer exists."
"Even its history died with it."
She looked at the girl with no expression on her face.
"You have to think carefully. Sooner or later, there will come a time when the fire cannot be contained."
