Reunion Preparation – 2
Trail made a squeaky sound at the word framed.
He’s also fairly quick-witted, so he seems to understand what I mean.
Before returning, Cald showed a unique side from the time he recruited party members.
He skillfully grasped the person’s weakness or trauma, and approached it with warmth that healed or solved it.
Everyone died here.
It’s the only one that didn’t work for me, so I used a different number… Well, this is over for now.
Anyway, the way he approached Neryl was no different.
‘Did you clear the frame that was placed on Neryl?’
Neryl said that he didn’t cry unsightly about that.
I don’t have that kind of personality.
But instead, he had a strong interest in Cald.
In the carriage heading to the area where she received the quest before returning, I remembered what she had said to me.
“I have never seen such a person in my life. Everyone was startled by my notoriety and just ran away, not trying to find out if that notoriety was true. No one was willing to clear the stigma.”
“uh.”
“Well, there are hundreds of stigmas on my name, but it wasn’t a big deal that one of them was released. However, it was very interesting that the approach was completely different.”
“Right.”
“There is no reaction.”
He was definitely a strange person. neryl.
Despite my blunt attitude, he always spoke to me first.
[Looking like you’re not paying attention, maybe you’ll be single for the rest of your life before you return…]
‘……’
[no. it’s nothing.]
If this child is at a disadvantage, respect seems to come out.
‘Anyway, let’s start.’
[What?]
‘What is it? I’ll use the power of a grand name like that omniscient eye.’
[ok?]
‘Neril is not a good-natured person. If I try to be on the other side, I won’t even snort. I must have a card that I can show.’
[Aha. Whom shall I tell the secret to?]
I recalled the memories before the return.
To be precise, the letters that appeared on her head.
– Mei Erenika and 287 other people guilty.
‘May Erenika.’
[great. Let the majesty of my omniscient eyes be engraved all over my body.]
ignored
Soon the screen popped up.
＜I used the Eye of the Battery.＞
＜The current eye level of the battery is 1. The secret level that can be read is D level.＞
＜The selection condition is ‘Secrets between Neryl Slaine and May Erenika.’＞
Ego.
What kind of cute secret was our wretched witch hiding?
Take it slow… Huh?
＜Error. ‘The Secret Between Neryl Slaine and May Erenica.’ The grade is B grade.＞
＜Can be viewed from level 3 of the Eye of the Battery.＞
The battery’s eyes freeze to death.
‘……’
[……]
‘Are you going to repeat what I said before?’
[I have no face.]
He replied in a muffled voice, then immediately countered.
[no! Common sense, this isn’t my fault. It’s your fault for being low-level.]
‘I didn’t say anything, so why are you alone?’
[……]
‘I can’t. Come to think of it, it’s strange that the secrets of the hero’s party members come out so smoothly.’
A high level is required to peek at a high-level secret.
‘Look, I can’t even read the secrets of Caled and Bion Kunze.’
[Probably so.]
I can’t.
With all my might, I tried to recall the memories before returning.
There must be some hint from the conversations, attitudes, expressions, and eyes the party members had.
[Do you remember all those things?]
‘I have a very good memory. It’s almost like a non-human level.’
[Isn’t he usually speaking so proudly with his own mouth?]
‘Of course, there are many useless memories. But thankfully, intuition is also non-human.’
[……]
There are times when, very randomly, you feel an eerie, lightning strike in your head.
Yes, by analogy.

Just like when I saw my father’s name floating on my mother’s head.……
A useless memory came to mind. Now this isn’t important.
Anyway, I don’t think of past conversations or actions first, I’m thinking of the time when that lightning struck.
And I’m going to focus on the memories of that time when lightning flashed past.
Soon a flash of memory flashed in my head.
It happened when I woke up in a hurry in the middle of the night to urinate at the inn I stayed at during the trip for the quest before returning.
As I made my way down the hallway to the first floor, I saw Neryl, who had a rather bloody atmosphere, at the dining room table in the inn.
Caled was also sitting in front of her with a serious face.
I instinctively killed footsteps and signs.
The other colleagues, even Kayle, had already figured out that if I made up my mind to hide myself, I wouldn’t be able to discover it.
“Call me in the middle of the night for an interview. Where did the courtesy go and sell it, our hero.”
“Mr. Neril is pretty sharp to me.”
“It’s not just about you. I hate them all.”
“……”
“therefore? What’s going on?”
“I’m sorry to say this all of a sudden, but Mr. Neryl was the famous witch of wretchedness.”
Kayle was basically talking to everyone in the party, but Neryl couldn’t.
Because you are a little older.
“By the way?”
“I found out on my own when I recruited Mr. Neril. I know that the countless infamy that has piled up in front of you is not really what you did. It’s overturned.”
“Did you use that story when you recruited me?”
“But some of them must have been real. For example, the atrocities I committed just before meeting me.”
Neryl stayed silent with his legs crossed.
Kayle continues.
“Is it the Quengk Territory? You brutally murdered the owner of the tool shop there, didn’t you?”
“Because he was a cheap guy even if he died.”
“There is no such person in the world.”
The man who deceived 148 million people has the face of a true saint.
“If there were, was the shop owner really ‘cheap to death’? He was an ordinary man who sold medicinal herbs and farm implements on the estate.”
“What do you know?”
“I do not know. So, teach me.”
“If you don’t like it.”
“You are my party member, and as a leader, I need to manage my party members. It will be difficult to be with you any longer if you continue to cause ‘wholesome’ in the future…”
“under.”
Neryl got up from her seat.
“I’ll start by telling you not to worry. Now there is no cruelty. After this demon lord subjugation, I will disappear. Because I have finished my work.”
“Did you finish your work?”
“There is no need to tell you there. Anyway, I’m telling you not to worry because you’ll be a quiet and kind heroic party member.”
“Mr. Neril. As a colleague, I seriously want to know your feelings!”
Neryl sighed heavily.
And I looked up the stairs.
To be honest, I was scared at the time knowing I had been caught.
But she didn’t see me.
“When I found out that I was the famous witch of wrath, the faces of the party members were very funny. At first, you just introduced me as a wizard who turned his back on the world.”
“……”
“There were different expressions. How can you kill such a witch, that monster, that monster.”
“……”
“But one was quite blunt. No matter what, you just have to do your job well, right? It was a face that said that.”
“……You mean Maid.”
“It’s the best attitude. The next desirable attitude would be to be wary and fearful of me. The worst.”
She glared at Caled coldly.
“It’s like you’re trying to appease or comfort me, so you dig inside out.”
“……”
“You think I came to the party because you took away my notoriety? Do you feel that you are here because you are moved or you are in debt?”
“……”
“I just found the last seat. There is no last more suitable than the battle with the Demon King.”
Kayle’s eyebrows twitch.
Neryl yawned once and waved his hand.
“I’ll stop going up. good night.”
I stopped reminiscing.
[Oh. Something like that happened.]
‘okay. ……? Do you even try to spy on your reminiscences?’
[By the way, how do you know if this memory will help? It’s my intuition, so don’t say vague words.]
‘Neril said that he had finished his work, and the misery stopped with the case of the owner of the tool shop in the Quark Territory. And to find the final stage of his life, he jumped into subjugating the Demon King.’
[Aha. I’m just saying that it was his job to cause misery to the owner of the tool shop.]
‘In other words, it will be revenge. I don’t know why a great wizard like her had a vengeance on the owner of a tool shop.’
I counted my fingers.
‘Due to the timing, Neryl hasn’t contacted the tool shop owner yet. It was a week later that she caused the last misery.’
[then?]
‘okay.’
I need to intercept
I will get her revenge target first.
Threatening with that… Hmm, I’m going to negotiate.
I was convinced and smiled.
In my head, Trail speaks nonsense.
[Oh, is it really okay? Think again.]
‘How about this perfect plan?’
[Not upset! If you threaten someone with a target for revenge you’ve been searching for so hard, of course you’ll get angry!]
‘It’s because it’s a negotiation.’
[Why don’t you try to persuade him with a calm conversation? Let’s work together to defeat the Demon King and save the continent.]
You don’t know all of Neryl.
In short, I don’t know.
The wagon drove three more days and arrived at Quink’s estate.
The coachman, who had been with me for a long time, was now close enough to be shoulder-to-shoulder with me.
“You’ve been through a long way. Here’s the rest.”
“Oh, thank you. Do you ever need a way back?”
“I haven’t figured out my next plan yet.”
“What’s next?”
“no. Anyway, the Quark Estate is quite large, so even guests on the way back will be able to find it quickly. Of course, I’m not sure, so I put in the rest of the money.”
The coach bowed his head deeply once more.
Trail says when entering the estate.
[You are quite polite.]
‘Then how did you see it?’
[Since he is a wandering mercenary, I thought he would be dull on that side.]
‘Don’t worry, I’m more polite than you who say that out loud.’
[More than that, how are you going to find Neryl now? Like you said, it’s pretty spacious here.]
‘Take a look at the map.’
[……]
Trail mumbled something and displayed a courtesy screen.
Continental conduction filled the screen.
But I shook my head.
‘Only the map of this Quank estate.’
[No, you know what kind of secretary I am.]
‘Oh, I’m sorry if you felt that way. He is capable of doing anything he wants, so I thought this would be easy.’
[huh. Of course. It’s very easy.]
Soon on the screen, a man with a greatly enlarged Quenk estate came to mind.
……
easy guy.
Anyway, I looked closely at the screen and said.
‘You don’t need to find Neryl yourself. It’s a hint that the target of this tragedy she will cause is the owner of the tool shop.’
[……]
‘In terms of traveling around the continent, the place where tool shops are usually located is between a private house and the entrance to a village. I have to do business with both travelers and villagers.’
[Aha.]
‘Then we’ll all be gathered here. Let’s go this way first.’
I took a step
There were a total of ten tool shops in the Quark Territory.
The first tool shop owner was a sincere young man who had sinned against only five people.
Neril’s name was not in his pigtails.
There are 12 owners of the second tool shop. Neril doesn’t have a name either.
The third owner is 9 people. No name for Neryl.
The fourth owner… 39? what is this cub
From experience, if you have sinned against more than 20 people, you are not an ordinary person.
Anyway, Neril’s name wasn’t there either, so I turned around with an absurd smile.
The fourth owner says:
“what. Are you just going out?”
“yes. I don’t have any good stuff.”
“Aren’t you going to choose something? Whoops, whoops.”
The guy spit on the floor of his shop.
“I’m going to die if I can’t get my business dirty. Buy a dagger there. You look like a mercenary.”
“Whew. How are you?”
“How long have you been looking for?”
“……”
damn! perk.
squeaky.
I flicked my hands lightly and came out of the fourth tool shop.

Just then, I saw an adventurer guest coming in here.I opened my mouth kindly so that he wouldn’t go in vain.
“It will be closed today. This tool shop.”
“yes?”
“I think I need to take a nap because I am very tired.”
I left the adventurer’s tilted head behind and headed to the next tool shop.
It’s kind of refreshing.
After that, I searched a little more and found the seventh tool shop.
Above the owner’s head there were these pigtails.
-Frank de Revan and other 89 people sinned.
As I widened the screen, I saw a familiar name fourth from the top.
The victim of the crime he wanted to hide the fourth time.
-Neryl Slaine.
