Searching through authority is no longer possible.

So, I quietly walked around the building and put deer blood on the tips of my index fingers and thumbs.

“Is that why you brought it here?”

“Yes.”

“It’s definitely not a bad idea.”

Jules smiles and looks at me.

I rubbed the tips of my fingers and picked up Executor Yunaira’s olfactory signal.

“Once this is done, there will be virtually no blockages.”

“I guess so.”

“When we return, Dumheim and Habstenburg will already be connected by a train line.”

I walked around the village chasing the wind and looked at the orcs.

It seemed like the orcs were doing all the work.

“After a few months, the route will also be connected to Unaira.”

“In about half a year, Horus, in about a year, Niflheim…”

Actually, I didn’t do anything.

“What should we do next?”

“That will come to mind when I go there.”

Jules spoke calmly, but nothing came to mind.

Just as the children’s future hope is to be an ‘ordinary office worker’.

So I had to decide in advance.

“I want to build a school. So that children can learn for free.”

“Let’s make it.”

It was easier said than done.

“It’s not easy. Because the privileged class will all yell at you.”

This is a world where discrimination in education is taken for granted.

They only show concern by teaching people.

“They have nothing to show but what they have learned, right?”

reason?

‘To make people slaves.’

The democratization policy was also similar.

The scheme of vested interests to exploit others has been going on for thousands of years.

Jules said with a smile, feeling at ease in the world.

“Would it be more difficult than breaking down the Great Wall?”

Of course not.

It would be much easier.

However, the feeling of reaching the purpose was different between then and now.

“···When I think about it now, I don’t know how I did it.”

I’ve been clueless for half my life.

But not now.

That was the only thing that changed.

I just got smarter.

But why do I feel like retracing my own footsteps at dusk?

A proud self-deprecation flowed out.

“I guess I was really crazy.”

“I finally realized that.”

A sudden act of popularity stole our attention.

“Maybe we can make sense now.”

Feraku.

My sentimental heart calms down in an instant.

He did not show himself like usual and remained hidden.

“What happened to Callisto?”

“I was brainwashed by a crazy person who wanted to turn the human world into a paradise.”

‘A crazy person trying to turn it into paradise?’

He wasn’t crazy.

I didn’t hate the prophet’s wishes either.

Because mocking a person’s desperate attempt to live is something only a crazy person would do.

I just hate taking things from other people.

“Are you crazy?”

So I had no choice but to ask.

“If the meeting between you and Maal goes through anyway, Inoemagyeong will be submerged.”

“···Yes?”

“It is fate.”

It’s so sudden that it doesn’t make any sense.

Even if you think about it and chew your cud, it’s the same.

‘The Inoemaekyeong is going to be submerged?’

So what about the people left on this island?

“Then why did you come here?”

“To save even one more life.”

“If the island is sinking, how can we save it?”

“There was a way. If only that disgusting bastard hadn’t brainwashed Callisto.”

Feraku’s voice becomes more ferocious towards the end.

Crank!

The tail trembled like a chirping bird and made a roaring sound.

Is this what happens when a fist-sized cicada cries?

‘That idiot?!’

“Huh? What does this mean?”

“Shh…!”

Although it only lasted for a moment, the loud noise was enough to attract the attention of the guards.

We quickly took cover behind the wall.

The guards with a low posture slowly approach us.

Two people, one team. There is no sound of armor.

Just as I was preparing to send a hand signal to Juul and subdue the orcs.

dump!

There is a sound of a person falling.

Pera Cu had fainted them with the power of Ceres.

“···Change your seat.”

I can’t head to the abandoned house where Lexi and Shir are.

I had no choice but to head to the forest where the shipyard director was.

“Why is Inoemagyeong submerged?”

“Because it is no longer needed.”

“What do you mean?”

“You will find out when you meet Maal.”

‘Of course, you’ll know when we meet.’

The agent of Prometheus sees the future of Ajin.

From his perspective, the world sinking into the sea would have been no different from the destruction of the world.

“If I meet you, doesn’t that mean I too will drown in the middle of the sea and die?”

“What does that mean? Among your group, how many of you are servant agents?”

I sighed at the absurdity of the voice.

Why are the servants treating us so poorly?

“It was a mess, and the servants said they couldn’t help.”

He spat it out as if complaining.

I couldn’t understand.

Why do we leave other people’s power alone and only torment us?

“I don’t know why they tell me to go here and then make the way there difficult.”

Then, before I knew it, I ended up spewing out my anger as if I had burst into tears.

“Neptune said that. If you’re having a hard time, ask for something.”

“They won’t just sit back and do what they tell them to do.”

“But it’s all bullshit. They took away my power to cross the sea, changed my mind while I was doing what I was told, and now even Dantalian is interfering with me.”

‘Now that I think about it, it’s a shame?’

As I spewed out words like this, I became even more angry.

Ceres must also be listening to everything through Peraku.

“Why do you make things difficult for people?”

I waited for Feraku’s answer.

But there is no answer.

“Yes? Don’t you ask?”

I looked around.

But Feraku kept his mouth shut.

As if it never existed in the first place.

I felt a chill and looked around.

“···Feraku?”

─The guy hid himself.

Just like the siren’s flight etiquette, the basilisk also has its own etiquette.

Even if you don’t show up, you pretend to be popular.

One of the things to keep in mind is that the basilisk must make its presence known to others.

There is always a good reason for not doing so.

‘What’s there for a basilisk to be nervous about?’

The head of the shipyard flashed across my mind.

“If it’s because of the ogre’s body odor, he’s in my group.”

“···What?”

“This is my group.”

How far has it gone?

I saw the shipyard superintendent building a shelter to rest for a few days.

But I didn’t really try to pretend to be popular.

“···It’s impossible.”

“What is it?”

“That ogre should have died and disappeared.”

It reminds me of the situation right before I was eaten by Ouroboros.

‘That was the situation.’

But it didn’t happen.

You risk your wives’ lives on an adventure.

Even thinking about it now, it was crazy.

In the past, I would have cut the rope without hesitation.

“How is that ogre still alive?”

This is what Peraku said.

The shipyard director should have died in the dark ocean.

‘In other words, the prophet knows that too.’

In that case, the shipyard director could also use it as an ‘exception’.

“···Will I change my future for a day or two?”

He said it like this.

“You are no longer Dantalian’s agent. There is no grace in your head.”

“I don’t know why you deny what happened?”

“···The future cannot be changed without the intervention of something that observes the future.”

─Something that observes the future.

In other words, there are only servants or servant agents.

There was no one in the group who knew the future.

“You cannot change the future by yourself.”

A black sunspot appears in the air.

Feraku’s eyes are looking directly at me.

“What changed the planned future?”

“No─ haha… Wouldn’t it be better to tell us about the future so we can compare it?”

He sighed and avoided Feraku’s gaze.

But only one servant came to mind.

‘Dantalian.’

Dantalian would have been the only servant to help me in that situation.

I have no intention of revealing that to Peraku.

“This is what the future holds. What is the reason you can’t save Callisto?”

“If the Prophet dies, she dies too.”

It is said that even if Ferraku kidnaps Callisto, she will commit suicide.

“How are you not brainwashed?”

“Because I didn’t show up to him.”

We are immune to brainwashing, and Feraku has the powers of a servant.

In other words, they can use each other as swords and shields.

“We are also immune to brainwashing. Except for my group in front.”

Following my gaze, Feraku’s attention turned to the shipyard manager.

“Are you planning on handing that ogre over to the Prophet?”

“Yes. I will give false information to the shipyard director.”

If the shipbuilding director reveals all the facts to the ‘head’, the ‘head’ will try to arrest us based on the shipbuilding director’s statement.

“While the Prophet is wasting his time on fake information, we will kidnap Callisto.”

“Wouldn’t it be okay to just cancel the brainwashing?”

“Didn’t I tell you? The power was sealed.”

That’s what I said before.

Let’s wait for Feraku’s answer for a while.

The guy falls silent again.

“So is there any other alternative?”

I waited a few more seconds for an answer.

Ferraku still did not answer.

“······.”

A situation that feels like déjà vu.

I get chills.

I ended up saying the same thing I just said.

I hope not.

“If it’s because of Ogre… he’s in my group.”

“···What? How is that ogre still alive?”

But ominous imaginations are always wrong.

‘Memories are being erased.’

Just like Sorshei.

It was one of two things.

Either he was brainwashed, or he died and became a soul.

But it didn’t look particularly dead.

If that were the case, the guards wouldn’t have found Peraku.

As he said, I no longer receive the favor of servants.

However, Jules and Isabelle, whose powers have been sealed, cannot do anything.

There is only one case left.

─It is possible that the ‘head’ itself is Dantalian.

Feraku is losing his memory when he talks about powers.

If we had the power, we wouldn’t be surprised that the shipyard superintendent wasn’t killed.

But Peraku asked, don’t your wives have powers?

‘The power limit was until we arrived at the Inner Demon Realm.’

Dantalian must be the one who continues to seal our powers.

And the most incomprehensible thing.

‘Why doesn’t Dantalian suppress my free will?’

That he is so desperate and yet still human.

Because he was so human, he ended up being stepped on by me.

I turned around and looked at the person I loved the most.

“Ella. No, Dantalian.”

“Yes?”

“I know you are like that. If you don’t like it, tell me. Because I won’t do it.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden…? Dantalian.”

Ella looks up at me as if she doesn’t know.

Of course.

Because she won’t be aware that she is Dantalian.

‘Is that what you meant by dropping your head?’

Dantalian was weeding himself out as a devil.

That’s why servants can’t do anything to those who have received Dantalian’s blessing.

Or maybe they agree with Dantalian’s wishes.

Or it doesn’t matter what happens.

“It doesn’t matter what the other servants say. I won’t do it if you don’t.”

“So, suddenly what…!”

Ella keeps blinking.

Then he rubbed his eyes as if he was tired.

“What is it…?”

Because there were tears in her eyes.

Ella, embarrassed by the tears she shed, glanced at me.

“···Why am I like this?”

Now I know.

What those tears mean.

Why did Dantalian disturb me?

─This is the third time.

‘Dantalian, trust me.’

Because I will never ruin it.
