『Among the legends of the snowy mountain at the northern end, there is something called a ‘spirit that counts winter.’

This spirit is said to make its home in the frozen lake at the highest peak of the snowy mountain and build the snowy peak of the snowy mountain. The barbarians worshiped the spirit like a guardian deity and revered it as their spiritual leader.

At first, the members of the investigation team thought it was a simple folk belief, but upon further investigation, there was one strange thing about the tradition.

It is said that when the barbarians of the snowy mountains who believe in tradition elect a new chieftain, they go to a frozen lake and receive a token of winter.

The name of the requested item is ‘Token of Endless Winter’.

The investigation team believes that the requested item is related to the token received by the barbarian chieftain.

However, further detailed investigation is not possible.

The barbarians of the snowy mountain were closed, and their barrier was in a form that could not be penetrated by the capabilities of the investigation team members.

It is believed that the requester will have to visit the snowy mountain in person.』

Deltan read the letter with sunken eyes.

Already for the fifth time, I read the letter repeatedly, trying to deduce other clues, but I couldn’t find anything.

There was no alarm announcing the quest.

This is not to say that this is nonsense, but that it is impossible to determine authenticity based on this alone.

‘It’s a spirit… .’

Deltan reflected on the characteristics of the spirits he knew.

‘Indeterminate life form. Without sensitivity, it is impossible to confirm it with the naked eye, and due to its nature, it cannot leave the place where it was born.’

Besides that, there were more habits that I knew about.

After all, when I first fell to this earth, ‘Spirit Master’ was one of the routes considered to nurture the body of Delta Hebron.

Even within [Evlore], the Spiritualist was a job classified as high value due to its extensive bombing function and excellent mental contamination defense ability.

There was no particular reason why Deltan did not choose that job.

This is because although the Elementalists were capable of widespread bombardment, their single attack power was poor, and even without contamination defense capabilities, the Deltans’ mental defenses were strong.

‘If I had known it would be like this, I would have at least tried to dip my tongue.’

Deltan expressed his belated regret.

As he did not expect to receive help from spirits while playing this game, he did not make any investment in spirit sensitivity.

Moreover, it was difficult to invest now.

Deltan had thoroughly remodeled this body into a form specialized only for magic sensitivity, and in the process, other sensitivity abilities were reduced to close to 0.

As a Delta person, it is impossible to identify the spirit of the frozen lake with your own strength.

‘This is so twisted again.’

Deltan’s brow furrowed.

I wondered if I should seek out other spirit masters, but spirit masters were rare and most of them were people who hid in nature and turned away from the world.

It could be said to be an unexpected situation, as even those in the city were only a few people who could not be moved by threats or bribes.

‘What should I do…? .’

Deltan thought about that and bit into the remaining sandwich.

‘Would it be better to have one of the hunting dogs become a spiritist?’

… I even thought that, but I also knew Delta people.

It was nonsense.

The Hound of Hebron has already been perfectly tuned, so if you change its growth route for no reason, its performance will drop.

Since I still didn’t know what kind of battle I would fight in the DLC, that was out of the question.

‘Taking the token from a barbarian without meeting the spirit… .’

This too will only cause confusion if the token is not the target material for the quest.

Deltan’s expression darkened.

He sighed and threw the report on the table.

‘First of all, take this slowly.’

Unlike Magic Actrias, it was a quest that did not have a time limit.

Even if I delayed the plan a little, the spirit did not run away, so I had enough time to inquire more about the spirit temple.

“Are you finished eating?”

Gerhart is back.

Deltan glanced at him, then nodded and stood up.

“Uh, let’s go to the duke’s residence first.”

“Wasn’t today your day off?”

“The princess was in a strange state yesterday. This is a change that occurred not long after the surgery, so we need to be aware of it.”

“… I understand.”

Gerhart lowered his head and thought.

I wonder if my master is shaking too much.

*

Deltan, who arrived at Duke Levadein’s residence, tilted his head.

This is because the direction the maid leads is not toward Agnes’ bedroom.

“I don’t think it’s here.”

“Oh, you are in the garden today. He said he wanted to get some fresh air.”

“What… How long has it been since this happened that you’ve been making a fuss?”

Deltan felt uncomfortable.

I was displeased with Agnes, who was talking about the topic of hurriedly leaving the banquet hall the day before, saying that her heart was feeling strange.

“Then I have to lie down sick to come to my senses.”

Deltan clicked his tongue and the maid laughed awkwardly.

It was about 5 minutes later that we arrived at the garden.

“Lady, the Count of Hebron has come.”

A simple tea table in the middle of the rose garden.

Agnes, who was sitting there, turned her head.

Immediately after discovering the Deltan, Agnes’ expression was momentarily shaken, but soon regained her composure as if nothing had happened.

A smile appeared on her lips.

“What happened today?”

“Supporter inspection.”

“You didn’t use that as an excuse to want to see my face?”

“Seeing the snout alive makes me feel like I came here for no reason.”

“Do you want to sit down now?”

Agnes offered to sit next to me.

The Deltan snorted, ‘Hmph,’ and headed towards there.

The maid had already left the place.

“What kind of idiot are you already walking alone?”

“You have a body that can dance.”

“He said his heart felt strange while dancing.”

“It was a mistake. I was shocked because it had been so long since I had done something active.”

For some reason, Agnes’ face showed satisfaction as she said that.

He seemed satisfied with what I said.

“… Okay, anyway, since I’m here, I’m going to do a test, so give me your hand.”

“Woong.”

“Don’t do that.”

The Deltan frowned. Agnes burst out laughing brightly.

“You made a face that made me want to play pranks.”

“It’s my fault?”

“So who says he’s so cute?”

“Screw those cheap comments.”

“It’s okay because I’m a luxury product. No, it should be called a masterpiece… .”

Deltan checked her pulse by checking her wrist. In doing so, mana was flowed into the blood vessels to determine blood flow and tension.

It was a grasping technique that only someone who had the anatomy of the human body engraved in his mind could do.

“You’re healthy.”

There was no problem.

The heart supporter was so perfectly placed that it couldn’t have gone any better.

A look of satisfaction appeared on Delta’s face as she realized that fact once again, and Agnes lifted her skirt.

Rattling!

Deltan’s body shook.

Unable to react to the sudden movement, she immediately faced the view from under her skirt.

“Hey crazy… !”

He wasn’t wearing underwear.

What was visible beneath the skirt was Agnes’ raw body.

It was a color that brought back memories of that night.

When Deltan looked at Agnes with a bewildered face, Agnes smiled mischievously and tapped her lips.

“… .”

Just right.

Deltan snapped his fingers.

“How was it?”

“Do you want to ask that question?”

“Yes.”

“It’s really vulgar. I’m sick of sub-human intelligence that doesn’t even understand the concept of wearing clothes. It’s a shame that we are of the same race.”

“It’s quite poignant.”

“Doesn’t it look sour? Why aren’t you wearing underwear?”

“Well, it’s my house.”

“This is a garden. Outside the house.”

“No one is watching. And if the skirt comes down to my calves, who will be able to see it if I don’t lift it up? Rest assured. You are the only one who can see under my skirt.”

Deltan was speechless.

Agnes looked at the blank-faced Deltan, then tilted her head and asked.

“Shall I show you one more time?”

“Get out!”

“If you want to see me, tell me anytime. Oh, let me touch it too… .”

“Shut up before I shut you up again.”

“Chii-.”

Agnes pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, but Deltan was stubborn.

No, it would have been more accurate to say he was desperate rather than stubborn.

Deltan felt like his head was pounding at her incomprehensible behavior.

The natural course of action was to wash my face.

‘Dangchoi… .’

can not understand.

It’s not that he lacks culture or intellectual ability, but seeing him say and do things that don’t even seem like words made me feel completely upset.

“Hmm… .”

“After all the biting, sucking, and fucking, you’re acting innocent now.”

“… I should record this and let the Duke hear it.”

“Well, I don’t think it’s moral to tell dad that I fucked his daughter.”

“Are your actions moral?”

“It’s an expression of affection.”

“Just die. If you don’t get treatment, hang yourself and die.”

“There’s still half a year left. I’m going to enjoy it more.”

Agnes’s laughter grew a little louder. And it became clear.

My health seemed to be improving as my health returned.

Deltan thought again.

They said it was right not to provide treatment.

If that were the case, we wouldn’t have had to see something like this.

“But you know.”

“What else.”

“What are you worried about?”

Deltan’s head lifted up.

He looked at Agnes with a frown.

“What do you mean?”

“That’s the kind of face. You’ve been thinking about something else since you came.”

Deltan’s fingertips trembled.

It was the perfect answer.

Even though he tried to shake off his thoughts about the spirit master, it was difficult for Deltan to think about it all the way.

“What is it? huh? Please let me know too.”

“You know what… .”

“I suddenly wanted to take off my clothes.”

“What is the context of that?”

“It seems like you don’t like it. Instead of threatening, I’m doing it.”

Deltan glared at Agnes with bloodshot eyes on the whites of his eyes.

The more she said, the brighter Agnes’ smile became.

At that moment, Agnes put her hand on her skirt.

Deltan answered without realizing it.

“Spiritist.”

“Huh?”

I felt like I was going to miss it, but I couldn’t take back what I had already said.

Deltan’s fist trembled.

He sighed and spoke in a weak tone, thinking that it was strange that he was insisting that he would not talk to me anymore.

“… I need a spiritist, so I’m looking for a way to get one.”

“Aren’t there some people in the system? You just have to meet him.”

“You have to take me to the snowy mountain. There is a spirit to be found there.”

“Ah, what I was talking about with the Marquis de Montbert.”

Agnes, who was nodding, closed her mouth and began to think about something.

Then I asked.

“But the snowy mountains must be very far away.”

“Uh, two months round trip.”

“Are you leaving me behind?”

“If necessary.”

“What is the treatment?”

“I will continue my research even while I am back. When I get back, I will try the methods I came up with over the past two months, one by one.”

“Umm… .”

Agnes tapped my cheek with her index finger.

And then I looked at Deltan for a long time.

Deltan felt uncomfortable under her inexplicable gaze, and then Agnes spoke.

“You know. You said you needed a spiritist, right?”

“uh.”

“Can I become a spiritist too?”

A question filled with pure doubt.

Deltan cut it off with a single sword.

“Will it work?”

“No?”

“Do you think anyone can become a spiritist? No matter how smart or strong you are, if you don’t have the ability to respond, spirit magic will end.”

“In other words, if I have the sensitivity, I can do it too?”

“… .”

Agnes’ eyes sparkled.

Deltan felt uneasy.

For some reason, the vitality in the cherry blossom-colored eyes seemed vague.

Anxiety became a reality.

“Can you check if I’m sensitive?”

“I don’t like it.”

“Please do it.”

“I don’t like it.”

“Why?”

I think it really exists.

Deltan, who thought about that for a moment, was surprised later.

‘… It’s a good thing to have.’

Since the problem of spirit messengers that can be taken with her is solved and the research problem of demon flowers is also solved, in fact, if Agnes can see the spirits, the best option opens up.

But why did you feel rejected by it?

Deltan let out a brief expression of embarrassment that he didn’t even know existed.

Meanwhile, Agnes was keeping her head up.

“Right? There’s no reason, right? Then do it.”

“… Are you there?”

“I don’t know. So I’m asking for you. But it would be nice to have it.”

A look of trembling appeared on Deltan’s face.

For some reason, I feel hesitant.

However, since it was not rational, Deltan ignored that thought.

Rational behavior and rational judgment were quite important factors for the Deltans.

“… Don’t be disappointed.”

Just right.

Deltan snapped his fingers.

A dot-like target mark appeared on the Deltan’s retina.

Deltan placed the mark on the side where Agnes’ face was.

and.

“How about it?”

“… Why is it so true?”

I felt dumbfounded.
