The skull’s eyes are clearly empty, but strangely enough, heat can be felt within the darkness.

Overwhelmed by the atmosphere that seemed to embody the deep emotions I had in my memories, I forgot about the excitement I had just felt and faced the skull.

“Answer. How do you know about the fairy dance?”

A serious tone, completely different from when he argued with his grandfather.

A sharp voice, as if not even the slightest prank would be tolerated.

What is the fairy dance that made the skeleton so urgent?

I don’t know. All I know about the Skull and the Fairy Forest is that he put the Fairy Forest into an eternal sleep.

I don’t even know what happened in between.

That’s a story about heroes, not a story about Soul Academy.

While I was deciding what to say with a skull in front of me that looked like it was going to eat me, my grandfather gave me some advice.

Tell a lie.

Grandfather will know that the fairy dance that Ganshu and I danced has nothing to do with it. Because everyone watched me undergo trials from the sidelines.

Nevertheless, the grandfather spoke with all the enthusiasm he had just now telling me to tell a lie.

I’m not a very perceptive person, but at this point, I can naturally guess what’s going on.

The story related to the fairy forest is probably something that is infinitely close to tragedy.

“Asahiki History A little boy showed me why?”

“…Lord Ganshu showed you the fairy forest?”

The skeleton paused for a moment upon hearing my derogatory name, but soon realized who I was talking about.

“Why?”

“Do I have to know what’s inside that smelly kid’s head?”

God’s will is so convenient.

Just as heaven leaves room for many interpretations when prophesying to earth, their oracles are also rarely clear. If you say you don’t know the intention, the other person will have nothing to say.

What can I do? They say they don’t know.

“Calm down. Dear wizard. If you get so excited just because something you know is mentioned, who will be friends with you? Even if I intend to become friends, I will get scared and run away.”

I was thinking of changing the subject by slightly inflaming the subject, but the skeleton didn’t react at all to my cheeky tone.

As if it was a lie that you were playing along with my pranks.

“Do you know what the fairy forest is like now?”

“A place where a writhing scoundrel stuck in the ground was eaten by an evil spirit? Why do you ask that? The damn wizard had it sealed. Because the bone is empty, have the memories become volatile?”

“Okay. That place is where I sealed it. It is the place where the sins of a miserable wizard who chose the world instead of her because he could not bear the encroaching forest dwell.

Ganshu-sama must have had a clear intention in showing it to you, the main apostle!”

is it?

I don’t think so?

There’s no way a history buff with poor social skills could have such insight.

That little bastard just chose a tricky place because he wanted to annoy me.

“As long as darkness remains on this land, it will be impossible to save that place, right? why? Why?”

“That scumbag attacked me and ran away while screaming at me?”

“…What?”

“Like a shady idiot, he was preparing to harass the cute me, but he got crushed by me. How on earth did such an idiot call himself God? ah. Is even an asshole God?”

The evil spirit of darkness has not been completely defeated. To erase its existence, you have to go down into the dungeon, break the seal, and destroy it.

However, it is clear that most of the power of the dark evil spirit has been blown away.

The evil spirit gave everything he had to get rid of me, the apostle of the main god, and even in that situation, he was crushed by me, proving that he was a loser.

By now, he must be enjoying a mental victory inside the seal.

“That story. Can you elaborate?”

The skeleton pushing at his goal was very burdensome, but his voice contained an earnestness that no one could tell, so he couldn’t bear to push him away.

Umm. How should I explain this?

Even if it’s distorted by the Mesugaki skill, I’m not confident that I can explain it in an easy-to-understand way.

Besides, if I chatter a lot, I’ll come up with a story that only I, a rotten person, can understand.

After thinking about it for a while and giving up on explaining myself, I talked to the skeleton, broke the barrier for a moment, and brought Faybe with me.

“Are you talking about the day you fought the evil spirit of darkness? In that case, you should do it.”

“It’s annoying.”

“In that case, I guess there’s nothing we can do about it. I will do my best to explain your devotion.”

Faybe, who gave sermons to others at church whenever she had time, was a great storyteller.

If there was a pretty sister who spoke like this on a video site, the number of views would have been enormous.

But you know. Fabi. Don’t you think the story is a bit exaggerated?

In your story, I am not Mesugaki, but a character who appears in mythology.

I’m not that noble of a person! Please do it in moderation!

I couldn’t stand the constant pouring of praise from Fabi, so I covered my red face with both hands, but regardless, Faby continued to tell the skeleton a story that was so distorted by her own standards to the end.

“Because the Lady performed a miracle with the power of the Lord, the city that had been engulfed in darkness regained its original state.”

“It can’t be.”

“It’s the truth. Erginus. I heard from people at the church there that it has become a more sacred place than before.”

“…Really?”

“I swear to the Lord.”

As Fabi smiled softly and nodded, Erginus slowly turned his head and looked at me.

I don’t know what you’re expecting, but the me in the story just now and the real me are completely different people. Even if you have high expectations, the only way to return it is to sell it.

“Lucy Alln. Did you say that?”

“You remember my name, but you keep calling me kid? why? Were you embarrassed to call a girl’s name?”

“A miracle that took place in the city. Can it be expanded to a wider range?”

Are you talking about removing all the energy of evil spirits?

There’s nothing that can’t be done.

It’s possible if you get a few holy relics from Isabel Artea.

me too. Fabi too. Because we have grown incomparably since then.

I nodded without saying a word, and the skeleton gritted its teeth and slowly nodded.

“I said I was a student at the academy.”

“But?”

“Can you come visit me when vacation starts? I want to make a deal. If you do me a favor, I will tell you about the things that the real thing has hidden. Even after I took over the memories, the real thing continued to be active, so there may be inaccuracies, but I can assure you that it will all be valuable.”

The suggestion the skeleton made was a type I had never seen before in the game.

Although this guy inherited Erginus’ memories, he never gave any information about him.

So it’s safe to say that the offer the skeleton is making now shows how desperate he is.

However, despite my earnestness, the skull’s offer is not very attractive to me.

I should know better than this skeleton where Erginus’s hidden items are, right?

It’s only natural to know that there is more rot at Soul Academy than there are skeletons buried beneath the desert.

but.

‘grandfather. This is the suggestion this skull is trying to make. ‘It’s related to the fairy forest, right?’

‘It must be dangerous, right?’

My grandfather tried to dissuade me, but I didn’t listen to him.

The Fairy Forest is a place that cannot be visited even in the game.

A magical place I have never set foot in. A hell where you don’t know what lurks.

Where else in the world can there be such a fascinating word?

I raised the corner of my mouth, walked up to the skeleton waiting for me to open its mouth, and kicked its shin.

As if even the greatest wizard could not do anything about an unexpected attack, he disappeared and the skeleton and I were in the same line of sight.

“It’s none of my business what Wizard Gaeheojeopdongjeong left behind. Even if I find something that smells like a widower, I don’t really want to touch it. It seems like the smell will transfer.”

“These are not things that can be disparaged like that! Those are!”

“A sympathetic wizard who doesn’t know anything about women’s hearts. A poor wizard who cannot do anything on his own and has to bow his head in humility in front of a girl. Do you want to make your wish that has been rotten for so long come true?”

“…Okay.”

“Then stop talking like a fool and help me. Because that sloppy fool is sure to do something strange again while he’s doing well.”

I believe in Joey’s abilities.

And I also believe that she can’t escape being an idiot.

If you leave her to figure it out on her own, Joy will fail more spectacularly than anyone else and her face will turn pale.

I didn’t want to see my friend cry, so I told the skeleton to help her.

Then the skeleton paused for a moment and quietly asked a question.

“…Do you know what I ask of you?”

“Roughly?”

“And that it would be dangerous?”

“Risk? ah. It must be a bit painful to endure the rotten smell of the chicken house lady. It’s recognition.”

“And yet you will grant my wish with this little help?”

“Over there. Jintta wizard. I’m saying this because I feel like I’m misunderstanding something. I have no interest in your coop-coop wishes. I just do what I want to do. So don’t overthink it. There is nothing worse than feeling foolish alone.”

After finishing what I wanted to say while touching the skull’s forehead, I took a step back and grabbed the mace again.

The moment I took my first pose with the intention of further concretizing the clues obtained through the fairy dance, a lively laugh erupted from behind me.

The skeleton, which was rattling as if it had lost its mind, stopped laughing after some time and stood up, looking at me and making a laughing voice.

“You must not doubt the insight of the great Lord.”

…what.

what?

Why is he suddenly saying something like that?

Did being criticized awaken a dark taste within you?

It would be difficult if there was one more pervert!?

“Stupid fox! Attack!”

“…Huh?! why!? why?! I was just praising you, so why are you freaking out!”

“Lucy. Should I be properly compensated later?”

“Gyaaagh! Do not come! Don’t come!”

thank god. Seeing as you don’t know what to do, I don’t think your tastes have changed.

“Please don’t come closer!”
