Avoid Former Co-Workers chapter 136

136 – 136. Senia and Seonhee Jang (5)

I hadn’t even paid attention to those things until now.

No, strictly speaking, I didn’t like it.

Because I’m used to having black hair in this country and arguing about it.

Rather, it may be that at some point she gradually got used to what she first accepted and erased it from her mind.

There was nothing to take out, and since it fell to the continent of Kempreton, there was nothing to use, so I just buried it. It definitely existed.

In the form of three letters commonly used in Korea.

There were things that seemed strange to Senia when she went back in her memories.

There are no surnames indicating which region they are from, the preparations that principals do not do well, and other things that are distinctly different from other principalities.

If you give the reason that it is all Korean, the puzzle about Senia begins to come together.

If you are a person from another world who is far away from this world without knowing anything, you can do that.

“Are you done with this remark?”

“…Yes.”

Yes.

I was born and raised in a world far from demonic beasts, and in a world completely unrelated to magic, let alone magical powers.

And the same goes for Senia in front of me.

That black hair is a color that no one usually has here, but it is very common in that country.

Plus her three-letter name that she just put out of her mouth. Senia is also a Korean with the name Jang Seon-hee.

“Then let’s get to the point. About the Calix you talked to Nella before Shanberesh appeared. Actually, the most important thing is missing.”

“The most important thing?”

I wondered if Calix had anything to do with the sudden mention of being Korean. But that was the essence.

“Kalix is someone on the continent of Kemp Ritten who will fulfill what someone longed for. That’s why he usually summons people from other worlds.”

“What? Unbelievable…”

“It doesn’t sound like it, but you know it’s true.”

This is absurd, but Senia didn’t seem to be playing a joke.

The fact that it doesn’t make sense actually started after I fell into this world.

I suddenly fell here in Korea. In fact, the concept of mana and magic, as well as the appearance of witches, are close to fiction in Korea.

But now? It’s a reality.

The fiction has become a reality, and it is not something to be dismissed as nonsense.

“So, I was summoned here to serve someone’s purpose?”

“That’s right. In my case, they are sirens. They say they summoned them in hopes of survival of the species called sirens.”

“…So you’re asking me to remember who summoned you?”

“Correct answer. The important thing here is who you summoned is important, but you need to know the purpose of that person summoning you.”

The survival of the Siren race.

If you carefully look at the relationship between Senia and the Sirens, you will be able to understand it right away.

It was easy to affirm that he had left during the Battle of the Heavens and easily passed the barrier alone here.

But this is where the problem arises.

“I… I don’t know…?”

I couldn’t remember anything even when I closed my eyes and thought about it.

“Isn’t there even a small clue? Try to remember when and where you were summoned.”

“Well… I suddenly fell in the middle of the academy. I have no idea what I want. I don’t even know who summoned me in the first place.”

“It’s ridiculous. Falling in the middle of the academy? If anyone had seen this summoning ceremony, it would have been a frenzy! Besides, it’s so different from other summoning circles that no one would recognize it…”

“But it’s real. I fell in the middle of the academy in broad daylight and got my butt first.”

“Huh. So, wasn’t there someone waiting in front of you?”

“…Uh.”

She even mentioned examining all of the students, and none of them agreed, even revealing that Professor Jake had come. Senia pressed her temples hard.

“This is a big deal… This is what the sirens asked me to find out…”

“…Sorry. Really, but that’s all I know.”

“I’m not blaming you. It’s because if you don’t know this, there’s a problem.”

Senia sighed when she was asked what was the problem while pressing her temple, then rolled up her sleeve to reveal a pattern.

“Is this…?”

“It’s called the Summon Rune. A summoner can only issue one order to Calix with this. This order… Calix can never go against it.”

She didn’t even have to ask what the problem was.

The existence of that pattern was proof that one order issued by the summoner had to be compulsorily carried out due to force majeure.

Even if it’s an order given with a twisted purpose.

“First of all, the issue of the cure for Lemtert’s plague was also intertwined with this. It’s hard to explain more details, but I’m going to go to the elder. Can I move?”

“Can you stay still after hearing this? I will go even if I can’t move.”

“Okay. Well then, I’ll help you out.”

***

The danger of the existence of Calix is such that the principality, which has experienced all kinds of cases, has already issued a ban.

If the wicked were summoned, there was no solution for the sirens.

Thus, for the Sirens who had no backs, Senia’s existence was an immense fortune.

Although she looked away from the outside, saying she didn’t trust anyone at first, she was a person who never looked down upon her words that the fate of all the sirens depended on her.

Thanks to this, Siren had an example of escaping the danger of being found out by humans.

Since that incident, the sirens have placed deep trust in Senia, and she has come to swear that she will not give Rune’s orders.

But what about Junon?

Even though he was summoned as Calix, there is no law that he will not be hostile to the Siren.

It’s not that I doubt Junon’s temper.

What if the summoner hears the stigma’s command and tells him to get rid of the sirens? As there was a precedent near them, it would be foolish to rule out that possibility and pass it over.

That’s why the sirens left it here to find out who summoned Junon.

‘I wish that the summoner was also a person whose temperament was not very different from that person’s.’

I have another hand, but I didn’t want to use it.

If it’s Senia, I’m sure she’ll get all the information from Junon.

The elder just stared at the vial on the table, waiting for him to enter the office once more.

Smart.

-Elder, that’s me. May I come in?

“Senia…? Come in now.”

“Excuse me.”

I asked Senia to bring only Junon into this room again. She means that knocking on her door is out of her prediction.

The elder decided to listen to what happened, but

“You…? Senia, what happened?”

“Junon needs to listen too. That’s why I came in with him.”

This time, I wanted Junon and Dongseok.

“Hmm… First of all, I want to ask if the story was conveyed properly.”

“I have come to understand. From what Calix is to the existence of Runes.”

Then it should be easy. Then why did Senia want soapstone? Senia responds to this.

“Junon… Says he doesn’t know who summoned him.”

“You don’t know?”

“You may not understand it well, but I don’t think there’s any way to lie to me. I heard that Calix was the first time I heard it from Nella.”

“Huh…”

The elder stroked his beard as if he was in trouble.

“But you know very well that there is no hostility over this incident. So sending it to the duchy to build some trust…”

“That’s not possible, Senia.”

“Elder…”

Junon just watched him with his eyes wide open, wondering what he was talking about.

The elder then takes out a bottle of medicine and explains it.

“This is a remedy that can cure the Lemtert Plague. It is made by Senia with the main ingredient being Hyplicia, which we sirens grow.”

Remteert The sound of a new drug for the plague opened my eyes.

‘I see… I understand. If you have this, you will be able to help the humans and clear your name.’

I wondered what Senia was preparing, but was this exactly what the sirens needed?

“I’m sorry. This is confidential even to you…”

“Don’t apologize, I understand why.”

But the elder just said no. He cut off Senia’s question about sending her medicine to the principality with a single knife.

“Is it because of me that you don’t want to send it?”

“No. It wouldn’t be strange to send any kind of thanks to you for taking care of our Siren’s nemesis, Shanberesh. But, we still can’t trust humans.”

“Human…”

“If the person who summoned you is a principality, there is no guarantee that our sirens will be safe. That is why we are not sending them. This is what happened.”

“This time?”

“Looks like you didn’t explain. Listen carefully.”

A single Junon might give you a vial without a doubt.

However, the current perception of the Siren has plummeted more severely, so even if they gave this medicine willingly, it would be unreliable.

‘I… Have been asleep for a week?’

The problem was that at that time, what the elder feared had happened.

From noble mtl dot com

Some of the humans who were imprisoned confessed the existence of the Siren, and it became known that they had imprisoned them, and the hostility towards the Siren in the principality was further amplified.

Cain took off his feet and tried to explain that it was the siren who actually saved them, but as a minority, it is inevitable that they will be pushed back.

The principality is recommending a reservation, saying that we still have to wait and see, but what will happen if even Junon’s summoner intervenes?

A subjugation order might be given to the sirens just by making a key figure lie.

Therefore, it was a very valid reason to not trust humans right away.

Nevertheless, that cure is exactly what Professor Dahlia needs.

There is no disagreement that it is necessary at all costs.

“And from what I’ve heard, it seems that the news that you dealt with Shanberesh in the duchy hasn’t reached.”

The elder glances at Senia. It means that the information was collected directly from the principality.

“So you’re telling me to find a way?”

“That’s right. This alone will never clear people’s doubts.”

“Elder, it’s impossible. How can Junon go here with that body…!”

“How long?”

“Junon!”

Senia kicked her table and got up, but this is the only way for Junon.

He had to minimize the damage to the principality to increase his chances of survival, so he had no desire to back down.
