Miss Planeswalker, are you free for romance?

"I'm sorry, I... I don't understand. The 'monster' you mentioned is a... beast? Do you keep animals here?" The woman never believed in these things, and the sudden change also confused everyone present: "Let's get one thing clear first, okay? Who are you?"

"We are the Pharaoh's guards." The black-robed leader patted the scimitar at his waist, stepped on the sand and looked around, saying as he walked: "For thousands of years, we have been doing our duty to prevent..."

The man turned and stared at O'Connor. "Just in case a curious, greedy person like you accidentally releases it."

Evelyn remembered.

"You mean the one who was bitten by the worm?"

"Don't be ridiculous..."

"His name is Imhotep." The black-robed leader didn't mean to joke: "If you are 'lucky', you will be able to see it soon..."

Evelin said nothing, but giving up the argument didn't mean she would believe in such supernatural things.

Seeing this, the man sneered, and his men on horseback swiftly took out the rifles behind them and loaded them with a click.

"Hey! Man..." O'Connor raised his hand and quickly stepped forward to block Evelyn and Jonathan: "Calm down! We didn't take anything..."

Evelyn pushed O'Connor away and stared at the man in black without fear: "I respect your traditions and myths... Little story? But you can't kill us all because of a story?"

"Just because of a legend, can you kill innocent people?"

"You are innocent?" The leader raised his mouth with a sneer, looking at the scars around him: "You come to someone else's house and claim to be 'innocent'?"

Evelin's face flushed red: Although this matter has some historical issues, they are definitely not right.

"…I admit that we were wrong. But you can't—"

"Eve." O'Connor interrupted at the right time and pointed to the collapsed tent not far away: "Mummy."

The cowboy, who was strong and powerful earlier, now looked like a shriveled and dehydrated stick, wrapped in the tent cloth in a black color.

"Mr. Henderson?!"

The three men slowly approached the corpse. The black-robed leader quickly drew out his scimitar and tapped its arms twice with the back of the knife. The corpse's limbs were as brittle as burnt charcoal and shattered into countless pieces at the slightest touch.

The corpse's face still retained the hideous look it had before death.

"All the moisture is gone. The eyes, and..." The man squatted down, pulled out a dagger and opened the mummy's mouth: "The tongue is gone too."

"It's...resurrected."

The man stared at the people in front of him with anger and disbelief. They actually looked so relaxed?

"That's a monster filled with cruelty and hatred! He's suffered for three thousand years. What do you think the first thing he'll do when he wakes up?!"

Jonathan leaned over O'Connor's shoulder and poked his head out: "Brush your teeth?"

Evelin pushed her brother. The woman who didn't believe in gods and ghosts wanted to refute, but when she looked around, she suddenly felt that something was missing.

——No, where is Mori Tsukisa?

"Jonathan, didn't I ask you to watch over Mori Yuesha?!"

"I'm going to sleep, sister. And who's going to keep an eye on her?"

The girl had been wandering around the camp with her maid these past two days. A girl who didn't have to work and wasn't interested in literature and books was indeed easy to be ignored.

Evelyn, who was devoted to the legendary girl she had always dreamed of, lost her own sister.

“Mori Yuesha!” Evelyn stamped her feet and began to search around in the messy camp, trying to dig out the yellow sand and the remains of tents and wood after the sandstorm with her bare hands. “Little Forest! Where are you?”

"She can't go far. The camels are still there." O'Connor caught up with Evelyn and pulled her out of the sand pile: "Stop digging! She is a smart girl and won't go deep into the desert with her maid."

Jonathan added: "Rich smart guy."

"So, where else can she go?!" Evelyn, furious, held O'Connor's hand tightly, digging her five nails into the man's arm: "Where is she! She can't do this, I lost her!"

"Mori Yuesha?" The man in black robe suddenly interrupted: "Smart ghost?"

"The Black Book of the Dead and your sister are missing. If you told me that she also understood ancient Egyptian..." The leader looked at Evelyn's frightened face and his heart sank little by little.

"No." The leader denied his guess: "The Black Book of the Dead cannot be opened without the 'key'."

"key?"

Jonathan touched his pocket and looked at Evelyn again. In the expectant eyes of his sister, he slowly shook his head.

she…

The key was indeed taken.

"My little forest..."

Evelyn fell on O'Connor in a daze.

"If it was your sister who resurrected Imhotep, the possibility of her survival is zero." The leader said coldly, not caring about the life or death of Evelyn's so-called sister: "Leave. We don't need to do anything, it will find you."

The man put away his scimitar, and the muzzle of his gun was quietly put away as he finished speaking: "Imorton will find you. It will not let go of anyone who desecrates its resting place."

"No! No, I can't leave... I have to find the little forest!" Evelyn pushed O'Connor away and stared at the man in black robe in front of her, "Who are you fooling? Do you think we will believe your ghost story? Did you kidnap her?!"

The chief looked at O'Connor.

The man nodded, stepped forward quietly, hugged Evelin and lifted her to his shoulders, letting her struggle.

"Let's leave first."

O'Connell thought there was something odd here.

It wasn't that he believed what the man in black said about 'monsters resurrected', but...those reptiles.

Those voices were not hallucinations.

In other words, who could turn a group of workers into mummies in just two minutes?

These men in black robes can't do that.

There must be something beyond their understanding - instead of wasting time here, it is better to get Evelyn back first.

Compared to Mori Tsukisha…

O'Connor cares more about Evelyn.

Chapter58 He’s my biological brother!

It was because of O'Connor's actions that this quarrel occurred after he returned.

"You left Little Forest to face those black-robed freaks all alone!"

Evelin yelled at the man, "We haven't found her yet! How could she come back first?!"

"I really can't believe you would do such a thing."

Jonathan was curled up on the sofa in the living room, eavesdropping with his ears perked up: To be honest, he was the one who was not worried about Mori Yuesa at all.

——How could that girl, who could kick down a wall with one foot and break her own arm with one hand (but almost), die in the desert?

——What's more, it is impossible for any evil spirits to be resurrected: places with low levels of civilization are very barbaric, ignorant, and superstitious about all kinds of strange legends.

Like his sister, he also thought that those black-robed freaks were talking nonsense.

He guessed that Little Forest must have gone somewhere to play with the maid.

"I'm telling you, Evelyn." The argument in the room continued: "Listen to me, you were drunk and didn't see it. Something in the yellow sand that covered the sky and the sun ate Henderson."

"Do you remember the 'bug blanket' that Mori Yuesha mentioned?"

"I highly doubt it was those bugs."

"Scarab?" Evelyn gasped for air, her face full of sarcasm. "O'Connell, do you think I'm a three-year-old? Would I believe that a species that has never appeared or has appeared but has long been extinct is the murderer?"

"That's a legend! How could you give up on her just because of a legend!"

"I said, I'm just sending you back first, I'll be back!" O'Connor impatiently helped Evelyn pack her luggage, but the woman took them out one by one very quickly.

“I’ll go back with you!” Evelyn rolled up her clothes and threw them on the bed. “Those people in black robes are liars! We have to find her!”

"Can you leave by boat first?"

"What will happen if I leave and you don't go find Mori Yuesha? Please, sir, you promised me!"

"I only promised you to find Hamunatta!"

The two people were arguing and their voices were getting louder and louder.

Jonathan crossed his legs and leisurely lit a cigar.

This time he brought back a whole bag of gold utensils. If he could find the right time to sell them, Evelyn's tuition and their big house would be settled.

Along with the quarrel, the man even whistled happily.

Knock—knock.

There was silence in the room.

"It can't be those lingering weirdos again." Holding a cigar, Jonathan put his ear against the door and listened for a while.

"Who are you looking for?"

Knock—knock.

“Open the door! Jonathan!” Evelyn poked her head out angrily from inside the room: “If it’s that group of people, I must——”

squeak.

Jonathan opened the door.

"Hi! Sister Eve, I'm back!"

three people:……

----

It was the first time that Mori Yuesha saw Evelin so angry.

The three people were doing exactly the same action - folding their arms, lowering their heads, and staring intently at Mori Yuesha who was sitting obediently on the sofa.

And Nagini.

And...Imorton.

"Tell me, Mori Yuesha, where have you been?"

Evelyn crossed her arms, ignoring the girl's meaningless nonsense like 'The desert is so beautiful', 'Oh, I found a camel', 'Hey, did you meet the man in black robes', and kept asking the same questions.

"Tell me where you've been."

Evelin was angry with Mori Yuesha, but mostly she was also angry with herself. How stupid could she be to lose a living person just because of a so-called 'dream'?

This living person is still the little girl who has been with him for a long time. She is helpless and alone in a foreign country, without relatives or protection. She is weak and naive.

She almost lost herself because of those strange history and texts!

Evelyn felt very guilty and angry at herself for being stupid.

"I..." Mori Yuesha's big eyes rolled around, "I'm in Hamna Tower——"

"Hamnath Tower was blocked by a huge rock. The hole we dug was at the foot of the Anubis statue." Evelyn counted on her fingers, her eyes threatening: "The entrance of the hole has long been buried by yellow sand."

"Where did you get in? And how did you get out?"

Mori Yuesa blinked.

Suddenly, she opened her arms towards Evelin, her little mouth opened wide, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and she started to act coquettishly:

"Why don't you give me a hug to show your support?"

Evelin had a wooden face, stretched out an index finger to press Mori Yuesha’s forehead, and pushed her back to the sofa: “Don’t come here, I’m immune now—I tell you.”

"It's like this every time you get into trouble."

"Before in the library, you damaged the cover of a book, and that's how you asked me to take the blame for you."

O'Connor covered his face with his hands and sighed, then patted Evelyn and told the woman to move away while he asked.

The rugged man's questions were much more concise and direct.

"Did you steal the Black Book of the Dead?"

Mori Yuesha corrected: "It's borrowed."
