586 584 What Causes Lake Anomalies? (1/2)

The next morning.

Eat my handmade pancakes and be in a good mood. Fran was headed to the tent of Weena Lane.

I was called in to talk to you.

”Oh, dear.”

”Morning, Fran. I need to talk to you a little bit.”

Weena Lane greets me there, and she cuts out the story. There seemed to be a subtle rush on that face.

”What's going on?

”You know there's something wrong with this lake, right?

”Mm-hmm. There's gonna be a moddle”

”Yes. That's it. Honestly... I didn't know why that was happening. That didn't happen until last year...”

I guess the anomaly has really happened very recently.

”I want you to explore the cause of this anomaly.”

”I?”

”Yeah, because you're the strongest one I can ask for. I'll temporarily solve the escort job.”

”Master?”

”Fran, too, is concerned about the lake anomaly, right? I've run into Modoki many times.”

”Mmm.”

”Then I think you can take it.”

”Okay.”

Besides, Fran is now employed by Weena Lane, and if he's been assigned a new job, it'll be until he does.

It would be subtle if they told me it was the instructor's job.

However, we are not complaining because we are going to investigate the lake anomalies that we were concerned about.

But I had one question.

”Isn't it faster for Weena Lane to move herself?

An ocean magician manipulating water, a spiritual user who seems to be effective for reconnaissance. Besides, he has a local face, power and money. A lake survey would definitely be better suited to Weena Lane.

But they can't do that. In my words, Weena Lane shook her head to the side.

”I don't want to get as close to the lake as I can with all the circumstances.”

”? Still close”

”This is the critical place. You can't go in the water.”

”Why?”

”This... is useless, isn't it? Because if it leaks to another country, it won't be a lot of things.”

”Okay. I'll never say it.”

”That said, I don't have time to tell you everything. I'll explain it gently.”

”Mmm.”
