Golden Experience

It had been a long time since we cleared all of Aha Ishke and Bouffrey's herds.

It was Zenobia who dealt with it, but I can't help but use the "Evil Hands" to expand the range of attacks or scatter anomalous attacks.

Also, the professor himself is not good at doing more than the LP who is deceiving himself with the hidden choker. The fight was left to Zenobia, and the professor refrained from taking action.

In the meantime, I was checking the SNS because I didn't waste any time, but there were interesting facts written down.

"... the village... damn it"

Amatein is nodding.

The fishing village is devastated. Only three players here and Zenobia will survive.

Many monsters have been after Zenobia, but not everything. From the whole herd of monsters, even a few would have been enough to kill the villagers.

The village chief used to say that seabirds attacked the island, but they'd never been attacked on such a large scale.

Horses may not usually come to the island.

It seems that some villagers fled into the house, but the whole house was destroyed and eaten.

"─ ─ Oh, my God. I wasted a lot of time.

But I'm glad I could afford it. You guys, that was just the end of the story ─ ─ "

"Ah! You! Don't you see this misery and think nothing!

The warmth of his hand hit the professor who was just about to continue. The attitude of exposing emotions but not forgetting to act is a look up. The professor must also be apprenticed.

But the words of warm hands are a little off the mark.

"I don't even think about it. The village I am taking care of is further behind, so I have not suffered any damage this time, and given their lives in the future, the impact will be huge, but it is none of our business.

And I didn't invite these monsters to attack. It doesn't make sense to care about anything. "

"I don't trust you! You must be one of those Magnum Melms! When you happen to be in the village, there's a raid like this. It's no coincidence! I thought you guided me!

It was still leaking.

But the warmth of the hand is probably due to the fact that the professor's appearance matches.

The monster raids happened to overlap, adding extra suspicion, but there is no evidence in particular.

No, before that, these monsters don't just happen to attack.

This is just a professor's guess, but there's probably a reason for this raid.

"Hmm. Regardless of whether or not I am related to the Magnum, at least I will insist that it has nothing to do with the monster's assault.

Instead, are you the ones who brought the monsters to this island?

The professor pointed out coldly.

This fishing village had only a defense system that could easily be destroyed by raids. However, from what I've seen, this is not a village that has been built recently.

It would be extremely rare for an attack like this to happen.

If it happens often, I wouldn't build a village here, and I don't think there have been any such raids in hundreds of years rather than years.

That happened suddenly today.

If so, it is natural to think that something suddenly changed that has remained unchanged for centuries recently.

There is a vast country ruled by mermaids in the sea.

Fearing the mermaid, people were forbidden to go out to sea on many ships at once.

But the other day, a large convoy left Ricebach.

Naturally, their ship was sunk by a mermaid.

And today, a monster that had not approached land for hundreds of years suddenly attacked.

Together, we can come up with one hypothesis.

The monsters are pets of the mermaid kingdom, and the mermaids, who are not tired of sinking the flotilla, may have been searching for survival and throwing monsters around.

And in support of that hypothesis, the SNS also wrote several times that the port of Ricebach had been attacked by monsters.

Since the players who died when the flotilla sank did not respawn on the island, there is no doubt that the flotilla was attacked by the mermaids before they arrived on the island, that is, further east.

The monsters have gradually expanded their search from the raid site to reach this island and Ricebach today.

"Whoa! What do you mean it's caused by us?!

"It means exactly what you say. Is there any other way to interpret this? I didn't mean to be so confusing.

Earlier I asked you if the flotilla and the mermaids attacked me. "

"Not now ─ ─"

"Wait, it's warm!

─ ─ You said Ursus. Keep going. "

Amatein stopped the hand from warming.

It hasn't been that long since we met, and I don't have the strength to order you to continue, but even if I point it out, I just get stubborn.

"Hmm. Your man seems to be able to talk a little more calmly. Then let's continue.

Do you have any idea why a group of mermaids attacked us in the first place?

The same goes for the ship I came aboard, but I haven't heard of a mermaid sinking a ship on a voyage recently. Nevertheless, if only your ship was sunk, there must be a reason.

There was something on your ship that was clearly different from the other ships. "

Amatein, who heard the professor's words, soon noticed something.

Wrinkles appeared between her eyebrows and her expression drew blood from her face.

"... Fleet, huh? No way. That's why we've been restricting large-scale trade? You've been trading for hundreds of years to avoid a mermaid attack...!

"I wonder what you knew. I can only say that it is foolish to stroke the other person's nerves knowingly.

It is said that there is a country where mermaids rule in the Canary Sea. If so, it is natural to think that the monsters who emerged from the sea have something to do with the land of mermaids. And there was a mercenary on the island who bought the mermaids a few days ago.

Whatever you think is your fault. [M] If you are from the Central Continent, perhaps your port has also been attacked by monsters. If that's the case, it's definite. "

"Eh... No way ─ ─"

The warm hands closed my eyes.

It seems to be checking SNS. Even in this situation, I am impressed by the attitude of paying attention to appearance. Let's say she's more powerful than a bad girl. I'm not saying I compared it to anyone.

"-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh, my God! That's why I don't like that hunch!

Amatein throws up.

If I had a bad feeling, I should have stopped.

It's a bit cool to say, "That's why I didn't like it."

"Let's get back to the story.

Now that you know, I have nothing to do with the monster raid, but rather with you.

That's why I don't think about the misery of this village, and I'm not going to stop you from grieving about it. You can regret it as much as you like.

And I wanted to ask you if it was true that the flotilla was attacked by mermaids, but I don't want to hear about it anymore. "

Amatein and her hands are dropping their shoulders looking at the devastated fishing village, but this was a great result for the professor.

It is safe to say that this proves that there is still a Kingdom of Mermaids in the Canary Sea.

There is no doubt that the kingdom believes in the light of the sun.

I've already lost it, but the literature in the underground kingdom's library was correct.

I can say that I was able to accomplish my purpose here.

The suspicion that the professor is part of Magnum seems to be faded out.

You can leave the Underground Kingdom to your men. I came all the way here, so I can investigate the volcano.

"Wait."

But the hand didn't let me get away with the warmth.

"... I wonder if there's anything else. We don't need anything anymore."

"I haven't received any answers to my relationship with Magnum yet."

"That's what I was saying earlier, but what if I had something to do with the Magnum? Is that more important to you than the fact that this village was destroyed?

If I had been involved with the Magnum, would your sins have disappeared? "

This is a trick.

There is no causal link between the fact that the professor is Magnum and the tragedy in this village.

That's what the professor himself said with his warm hands, but the same thing can be said in the professor's words today.

Since the warm-handed question has nothing to do with the destruction of the village, it is Unfair to interrupt the destruction of the village and ask questions like the current professor.

It is even more cowardly to put words there that further stimulate their sense of sin.

"... that's..."

It was a tactic that didn't work for Lyla, but when her hands were warm, it worked for Amatein. Even the professor seemed depressed enough to feel pitiful.

I can feel Zenobia's gaze from next door.

Zenobia seems to be aware of the rhetoric.

"Now let's go."
