Volume 13 Chapter 8 (1/2)

13-8 Princess of the Forbidden LibrarySatou's here Thinking about soet you stuck on an i a bit of break to cool down and consulting with other people should get you to find a simple solution to the problem

◇

Spreading ruht have been a mistake

I think about the Ropo thing earlier while looking at the stars from the roof of my mansion

I couldn't sense his presence until right before he spoke

I've lost sight of his existence despite having put a marker on him

His level is equal to greater demons'

He probably has concealh to elude another Unique Skill

I also thought the possibility of hi away chantlessly, but it's impossible to hide froo

Maybe dimensional transfer or locked space--but even in the case with Yuika back then, it won't let you hide from marker column

Considering that, the highest possibility is that he has concealment-type unique skill after all

Thinking frouess his identity to a certain extent

Hero, reincarnated person, demon lord perhaps, God or their apostle, I'm certain

Still, if he has the perfect hiding skill, I wonder why did he leave it to his underlings to steal?

The success rate should be higher if he stole it himself

Maybe there's some kind of reason?

If I just confir from that time--

My stomach suddenly feels warm, so I throw my vien

”Wlcome~?”

Ta into a ball on my stomach

”What's wrong? Did you make a mistake?”

This ti, and then silently put the head ofthe stars on her lap

”--A bit yeah”

”Isn't alright to fail once in a while You're human after all”

Arisa co my hair

How pathetic of uardian to make them worry like this

I should stop regretting and reflecting now

--Fro

”You're right”

I stand up while replying Arisa

Now then, time to act--

◇

I went to the forbidden library in order to seek information

Of course, as Nanashi+ that is

”Hmhmm, hmm, hmmhmmhmm”

--I saw so unusual

That taciturn princess is hu

”--Ah”

The princess who notices me has her face reddened and then she shuts her mouth

”You look happy Did anything good happen?”

”Yes, a bit”

”Really That's good”

Apparently, the princess is happy that she gets along with Arisa and Mia

Getting along is lovely, so they said

I got to see the happy face of a beauty, so let's get back to inal objective now

I go to the six-arolem and ask it to search for some books

”--Here are the catalogs of forbidden water, fire, and space ic, and unique skills that you wish”

I take the books that have been piled up on top of the desk by the living dolls into nizance Inhibition”, ”Hiding” through Menu

The ood at Conceal, I've found many famous people of the past like the thief hero, or the assassin king who had those kinds of unique skills, not only demon lords

However, every one of those skills is just a skill that has the effect of annulling search-type skill, not that it could oppose search-type unique skills

--I guess that's to be expected, the sample size is too few in the first place

There are also a lot of other useful-looking information, so I transcribe these forbidden books into the forbidden book folder of the memo pad

Froic books that have the spells of [Complete Control over Blood] for Mia's use, and [Dimension Shredder] and [Ash Flare] for Arisa's use

”Please pardon ic one are currently being borrowed for reading”

--Reading?

Thus when I turn toward the princess who has resuain, I see that there are indeed the books that I asked the librarion for

Looks like she's not reading it now, let's borrow it for a bit

”Princess, can I have your time for a bit?”

”W-what can I help you with?”

The princess looks shaken, perhaps she never thought that I would call her

”Can I borrow that book for a moment?”

”Eh, this book?”

”Yup, I'll return it to you immediately”

Since the princess nodded, I put the book into e and transcribed not only the spells I wanted, but the entire book

The princess see the book into e

”Thank you Next, please lend me that book”

”Y-yes”

After processing the second book like the first, I return the book to the princess

--By any chance, I wonder if the princess is researching the spells for Arisa's and Mia's sake?

”Um, Hero-sama”

”What is it?”

After thanking her and preparing to leave, the princess unusually talked to me

”Is a deain?”

”There's no oracle about it, so the Royal Capital should be safe right?”

I replied the princess who looks anxious, but I did not speak, ”Soh”, out loud

Still, oracle huh

I heard in the duchy capital that there would be seven advents of demon lords

I had heard it after defeating the wild-boar king in the duchy capital underground, so I though the re-head in the labyrinth city, it's possible that de five places

In fact, Hero Hayato is currently pursuing a demon lord in the weaselkin empire

After getting the [Chant Orb] at the auction and I becoic, I' the places in turns

Co places of the oracles?

If I reht, Sera's oracle points to another continent, the others are on the Holy Kingdom Parion on the western part of this continent, Weaselkin Empire on the eastern part of the continent, and the Ratkin Principality on the northeast part of the continent--If I'm not mistaken, that one should be close to the [Maze of Trazayuya] where Zen was hiding

The last one is the Kingdodom

Yowok Kingdo about it from a rumor

It should be on the neighborhood of Bishtal Dukedoer brother of Marquis Kelten who's under suspicion of doing coup d'etat should be the prince consort of Yowok Kingdom

Perhaps, demons are involved in those suspicious stories?

When I'do first

”Then, why are you checking past heroes and demon lords?”

”Even though the Royal Capital is alright, they ht appear in other places And also--”

Using this opportunity, I talked about the peculiar hiding skill that Ropo used to the princess who's well-read

The princess searches hera difficult face

”A thief that can null Hero-sama's Enemy Search Unique Skill is it Perhaps he used some kind of artifact that could teleport or hid him in the boundary?”

Fu some Artifact-class item too huh

Opinions from other people really are important after all

Getting a ne point like this is a hit, but for now, I tell her that it's not that kind of item

”Even if he used such item, I would have still knohere the opponent was”

However, it's also possible that he has co skill
