"It seems that you have also thought of it. I said before...the retroactive effect can only be triggered when the other party dies, which means -"

The general's eyes became slightly colder at this moment.

"Ang... was killed by someone at that time? In the mansion."

Emilia took it blankly.

"That's not the case. I saw some fragmentary images during my retracement. He was locked in a cave-like location and was killed by a guy who looked neurotic."

She stood up and took a few steps towards the window and said in a serious tone.

"Nervous...guy?"

Emilia thought about it for a while but could not figure out the identity of the other party. In other words, neither of them knew the identity of Natsuki Ang at all, nor did they know who the other party had been related to. She also stood up from the edge of the bed and followed the general. Looking behind me at the dark night outside.

"I don't know. The guy was very strange. He said some incomprehensible remarks, and... I saw just some fragments, and maybe even the order was disrupted."

She touched her forehead, raised her eyes and frowned, looking at herself and the people around her reflected in the window.

"...Are you okay, General?"

Emilia asked her worriedly.

"Nothing...I need to sort out the order, wait a moment."

"Well...it's okay, don't worry."

It would be better if what happened a few days later wasn't so urgent now. Urgency can't solve anything, Emilia thought to herself.

"There are some clips where numerous masked men in cloaks attack villages and massacre all the villagers."

She raised her eyes and looked at Emilia.

"Masked man? Could it be... the Witch Cult?!"

Emilia's face instantly turned pale when she thought of this.

No, no, no, the most important thing now is that the other party attacked the village, which means...

"There's no one in the mansion..."

The general recalled.

"The mansion was...attacked!"

Emilia's trembling voice expressed this conclusion.

"Probably that's it."

The general exhaled.

"It's not good... that is to say, the Witch Cult attacked the mansion and the village a few days later, and then for some reason... took Natsuki Ang into a certain place and killed him, and then led to you, the general connected to him... We went back together."

Emilia lowered her eyes and carefully sorted out her thoughts, pushing out the entire process.

"Yes, very likely."

She nodded.

"..."

After hearing this, Emilia subconsciously tightened the hem of her skirt and gently bit her lips with her teeth. She had a look of confusion on her face and subconsciously paced a few steps in the room.

"We'd better get back to the mansion as soon as possible."

She suggested to the girl.

I'm afraid we can't delay it any longer. Although Cai Yueang was killed a few days later, no one can guarantee when the others were killed. Maybe something happened before that, or maybe Cai Yueang was killed last. Yes, that means those witch cults may attack in the next few days.

"That's the only way..."

Emilia nodded.

The two of them left the room and went to Curio's office. Of course, Felix was also present. Emilia made a temporary decision to leave tonight.

Of course, the two of them were surprised when they heard Emilia suddenly asked to leave, but when they saw Emilia's face, they knew something must have happened, so they asked.

"What happened? Lady Emilia?"

Curxiu, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at Emilia who looked a little pale and asked.

"this…"

Emilia didn't know where to start for a while. After all, 'backtracking' and the like were a bit unreasonable. She was afraid that the other party wouldn't believe it, so how could she explain it?

"Mezas Mansion may be invaded by foreign enemies in the next few days, and we need to rush back to provide assistance."

But the general walked into the room, came to Emilia's side, and explained to Crusch on the sofa.

"...?"

Emilia glanced at her subconsciously.

"Foreign enemy...invasion?"

Felix was stunned.

"Yes, people in the mansion occasionally see the Witch Cult wandering around the forest these days. There is also a village near the mansion, so I am worried that something will happen."

Emilia picked up the conversation smoothly.

"Huh...I know, but you may not be able to go back tonight."

Crusch shook his head regretfully.

"Eh? Why?"

Emilia was puzzled.

"It's foggy outside."

Cruxiu stood up and walked to the window and opened the curtains, allowing the two of them to see the hazy streets outside. Except for the nearby city, the distance was completely invisible. The thick fog was almost closing in. The moonlight was obscured and no one was staying on the street. No one dared to go out at this time, as if they would be swallowed up by heavy fog.

"what…"

Seeing this, Emilia hesitated a little, her eyes lowered and her expression became very tangled, but after thinking for a while, she still spoke,

"That's it...we can only leave early tomorrow morning."

She also knew what the mist represented.

"Then let's do this for now. I will prepare a dragon carriage for you two early tomorrow morning and let Will take you away."

Cruxiu looked at the time and turned to the two of them.

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Kurxiu."

Emilia bowed to him and planned to take the general back to his room, but——

This time she didn't pull. To be precise... the purple-haired woman next to her didn't move.

"...? General?"

She looked over in confusion and found that the other party had been looking at her with doubtful eyes.

"What, what's wrong?"

Emilia asked in confusion.

"...Emilia."

"Ok?"

When she heard the other party calling her name, she agreed again and waited patiently for the other party's next words. Curio and Felix beside her also looked at them in confusion.

"Why wait until tomorrow?"

The general narrowed his eyes and sounded confused.

Re0~ Time travels back and forth, only you are by my side: Chapter 44 I accept this 'worry'

"...Because it's foggy outside."

Emilia was stunned for a moment after hearing this and then answered naturally.

"It's foggy...so what?"

"..."×3

Her voice paused for a moment, and then she looked at the two of them, Curxiu. Their beautiful faces had a lovely naturalness and confusion, which made several people look at them blankly.

"Um... Raiden dear, haven't you heard about this?"

Felix asked awkwardly.

"Huh, stupid question~ You never told me, how could I know? Don't force others to make things difficult."

She sighed, holding her arms helplessly, squinting at the awkward looks of the three of them, and complained like this.

"...?" x2

The two people in front of her looked at Emilia beside her in unison.

This kind of common sense...haven't you told her? ! ——As if asking with his eyes like this.

"Uh, yes...I haven't told you yet, General."

Emilia looked a little embarrassed.

"What's the matter?"

She looked at Emilia.

"That thing about 'Moby Dick.'"

The other person replied in a low voice.

"Beluga? Whale?"

She was momentarily at a loss.

"Well, to be precise...it should be a monster similar to a whale."

"One of the dangerous species created by the Gluttonous Witch more than 400 years ago."

Kurxiu answered.

"It stays in the thick fog all year round. It moves strangely and is powerful. Few people have seen its true appearance. It is an extremely dangerous monster."
