âSpeaking of which, the top adventurer who went to investigate Gulbal was wiped out? \n
Huh?
Sure, rumors were circulating that I was going home late.
Destroyed?
âDonât say anything stupid. Itâs okay, I think Iâve heard from you. Well, he said it was a less unexpected situation.â
That doesnât seem to mean itâs okayâŠ
âThough I suppose it sucks that you donât feel comfortable. After that, if we donât hear from you, we need to be prepared.â
âWell, it isâ
âBut we need to do something about it. So far, it looks like weâre just gonna get close to town, but weâre gonna have a good chance of coming in soon.â
âAh, right. Uh, I think Iâm still okay for the time being.â
Hmm?
To Mr. Druidâs somewhat ridiculous response, his master gives him a strange look.
I almost lean my neck for a second, too, but I remember Ciel.
Perhaps while Ciel is around, he thinks heâs okay.
But if you get attacked by numbers, you could get hit by as many strong siers as you want.
So I donât want you to push me too hard.
âIs there anything there? How to undo Grubal.â
âItâs hard.â
Mr. Druid sighs at his masterâs words.
âReally?â
Speaking of which, I used to say there were demons that suddenly became ferocious, but what happened then?
âUm, I need to ask you something.â
âWhatâs up? Something bothering you?
âYes, your master said something similar had happened before, but how did you solve it then?
âOh, donât worry about it for sure. Master?â\n
When I look at your master, you have a wrinkle between your eyebrows.
My eyes sharpen and Iâm scared.
Was that a question you shouldnât have asked?
âAh, thatâs it. It just said,â I burned a dead demon in my lifespan. â
Burned?
I donât know, thatâs crazy.
What your master just told you wasâ ferocious because you ate a demon that died in its lifespan â.
I should have eaten it, but how could there have been a body that could have been burned?
Youâre saying thereâs a lot of demons dying in their lifespan?
âUh, is that decent information?
Oh, do you sometimes mean false information?
âItâs real information because it was a well signed piece of literature left behind by the villageâ
Signed literature?
Itâs about something that has been censored and proven to be true.
In other words, there was a demon who really died in his lifespan and became violent.
Speaking of which, why did you bother writing like this?
âWhatâs going on, Ivy?
He saw you tilt your neck. Mr. Druid asks.
âUh, why did you bother writing âDead in Lifeâ?
âHmm? Well, itâs because the facts are, isnât it?
âYes, but I feel like I donât need to write. Would you rather write the name of a dead demon than that?
Iâm more concerned about what this demon is than the demon that died of its lifespan.
Because if you know what the demon is, you can be careful.
âSure you do.â \nâOh, youâre absolutely right.â
âMaster, didnât it say anything about the type of demon?
âThere wasnât. The literature reads:â Demons who ate demons who died in their lifespan, become violent and attack villages âandâ Demons who died in their lifespan, demons who became violent by burning, are sedated. It just said, âThis will fix it.â
Is that it?
âDidnât you even have the demon name of the one who made it ferocious?
âOh, it wasnât written. Thatâs a lot of literature out of hand. I used to keep records like this.â
âRight. If you didnât know the demonâs name, you should write down the features.â
I canât say anything because Iâve never read the literature, but is it still a bit strange to write?
But someone who knew then that they were going through censorship signed this for sure, right?
That is.
âDoes lifespan matter more than the type of demon?
ââ Huh?
Hmm?
I wonder why they all tilt their necks there.
âWell, the signed literature should say something important.â
âOh, the literature often says that past experiences seem to help the future. Demonic features and how to crusade. As for the top demons, that includes the experience that this happens when you put your hands on them.â
âItâs an important source of information that connects lives.â
You didnât know it was that important.
âEven more important, I think, is life expectancy. Maybe not because I didnât know you didnât give the demonâs name, but because other demons could have had the same thing happen.â
âOther demons?
âYes, uh, when you write that itâs Grubbal who died in his old life, only Grubbal will be careful. But if the same thing happens to demons other than Grubbal, who died in their lifespan, itâs dangerous to be only concerned about Grubbal.â
âI see youâre targeting all demons by not writing their names.â
âAh, I see. Druid, this guyâs pretty smart.â
âMaster, the way you say this is rude to Ivyâ
\nOh, I came into the square.
Are you looking for Mr. Druid?
âItâs all Iâve got.â
âHo. Youâre starting to say a lot. I used to run around in the woods crying, Peppy.â
âIâm not crying about peppies. Totally.â
âUm, Mr. Gilmouth is here. Why donât you run errands on Mr. Druid?
Two gazes in my words turn to Mr. Gilmouth coming this way.
âWhew, I knew it!
The expression on Mr. Gilmouthâs, very unpleasant voice.
Oh, thatâs the same reaction Mr. Druid had a while ago.
âHey, how you doing?
Masterâs, eye for prey or what?
If they do see me with this eye, I donât run fast.
âWhy are you here? Someone said something stupid about seeing my master, so I came here to find out the truth about the DruidâŠâ
Mr. Gilmouthâs gaze turns to Mr. Druid but is gently diverted.
Mr. Druid has already been through this, so I guess heâs not willing to help.
Hmm?
Uh, Mr. Gilmouth said you couldnât even look me in the eye.
âGood luck, Mr. Gilmouth!
âIvy abandoned meâ
No, because.
Because I donât think Iâm the right person for your master to play with.
âYouâre a terrible guy, that attitude toward a long time old master. Donât you think so, Gotos?
