Chapter 854 00854 Be Infected, Six. (1/2)
A red cloud crosses the sky. As if racing towards the end of the day, the evening play that flooded the entire city was setting the blue palace ablaze.
“Melinus. May I come in for a moment? ”
The Great Library lies beneath the spiral staircase. After the day's work, Melinus, reading this record on her own, raises her head, her eyes wide open as usual.
“Come in.”
Then, with a thumping sound, a dark shadow was cast under the sunset handrail. The bright young man who came down the stairs politely bowed and politely greeted, and there was a shocking light in Melinus' eyes.
“Huh, who is this god? It's Lord Ryan Winters. ”
“I'm sorry to be late. ” Transl at e d b y jp mtl.ｃ oｍ
The handsome young man called Ryan Winters, who spoke in a respectful voice, had unusually gray hair. The hair that reminds me of the white eyes comes down like a lion's mane and gently covers my neck. Melinus smiles softly at the mouth of her slowly approaching Winters.
“You're welcome. The Knight of the Round Table came to me, and I don't know what to say. ”
“Haha. Can you stop with that title? ”
Melinus shrugs as she smiles.
“No, why? I like that title very much personally. ”
“It's so unfamiliar. Winters will do just fine. ”
“What if I say no? ” T ransl a te d b y Ｊpmtl .co m
“Then I'll do the same. Melinus is probably looking for a star.... ”
As Winters pranks, Melinus raises her hands to indicate her intention to surrender. The two users burst into a light smile.
Soon Winters comfortably sits on the chair of power with a gesture of his hand. Melinus opens her mouth covering the notes on her desk.
“So, what brings you here? ”
“I'm sure you've already guessed. ”
“Hm.” Melinus takes a short sigh and fades slightly.
“I don't have a hobby of asking questions, but let me guess. Was it because of the expedition? ”
“Even so…. Eldora doesn't seem to have much energy these days. ”
Winters said without a doubt.
“Actually, at first I thought it was because I was disappointed that I couldn't find the stables at the last expedition.... ”
After saying that, I was almost as distraught as if I had been lucky. Melinus smiles blankly.
“Maybe you want to hear me say that. ”
Then Winters gives a gorgeous look. Like you were stabbed in the heart.
Melinus gives you a gentle nod, touching her beard.
“Well, go on. ” Tr anslat e d by Ｊpm tl.ｃo ｍ
Winters stares at the ground for a moment and begins to calmly join the conversation.
“Things have definitely gotten weird lately. It's a little stagnant. ”
“There doesn't seem to be anything strange about the way it looks. But it's different. It's different from before. I can't really pinch it, but... ”
As Winters reaches that end, he suddenly looks up at the target.
“You've probably seen her, too, right? ”
“If it's the woman from the recent expedition, I see her. I saw you again today. ”
“What do you think?”
“Well, he's still not waking up. ”
Winters quietly crosses his head as if it weren't. However, I did not open my mouth immediately, but kept silent for a moment.
“… I mean. ”
At last, Winters brings out the difficult words.
“If you look at her... I'm talking about feeling uneasy. ”

Despite the sudden redness of dusk, the room was surrounded by a strange amount of cold and blackness. Rather than simply feeling cold, the room is dark and has a strong scattered atmosphere.
Tr ans l a ted b y Jpmt l .ｃo ｍ Eldora stares at the bed with a slightly tense face and a colorful breath. The woman lying on the bed had a white duvet covered her chest, but the curvature alone was quite spectacular.
It's barely more than 150 centimeters tall, but I don't feel why it's so young. The slim jawline looks a little jagged, but it feels thinner than fragile. Looking at fine eyebrows and thin shoulders makes me feel dangerous and dirty.
In other words, she was a woman who felt unclear even when she looked at it like this. However, Eldora was hardened not because of her outward appearance.
The biggest reason is the sense of otherness. This was hard for Eldora herself to define precisely.
Objectively, there is no big problem. However, if you are looking at the face of a woman like a ghost and dark hair flowing with the light of John, you do not feel like a human being for some reason. You have to say it doesn't smell like a person.
Even if you touch the doll, if you check the warm body temperature, you will only feel a betrayal of interest rate.
Eldora closed her eyes quietly as the contradictory emotions caused confusion around the clock.
Thank you.
The first words I heard after the stone gate was opened. As I returned to Ragnarok, I heard no more than a single word. Because after she was leaning on Eldora's shoulder, she stayed asleep.
As a result, the expedition was neither a success nor a failure. You have succeeded in the raid, but you have not achieved what you hoped for. It would be accurate to say that you just wasted your time.
Strangely enough, Eldo couldn't do what he had to do. All the way back, I regretted and felt guilty for no reason.
If I knew the cause, I would feel refreshed, but I just groaned as if I had a mute cold heart because I didn't know why myself. Moreover, the anxiety caused by this contradiction got worse every time I looked at the woman closely. Like right now.
It was then.
“ ……? ”
Queek, the slight opening of the door breaks the silence in the room. Then I stopped right behind Eldora when I was just walking. Looking back, Eldora blinks slightly surprised at her golden eyes.
“Erwin?” T ran sla te d by jpm t l .ｃom
It was Elf Erwin who opened the door. I always wear a leafy garment, but today I wear a bow on my shoulder and back. I looked like I was going on a long trip soon.
“I was going to say goodbye before I left... There you are.”
In Erwin's words, Eldora lets out a near sigh.
“I'm going back to the Fairy Forest today...” I forgot. ”
“Yes, sorry. Something happened to the clan. I'm afraid I must attend. ”
“Well, then I heard that there was a lot of noise about the queen election. ”
“Yes, we haven't had a queen in a long time. The story came out a long time ago. ”
Erwin accepts it lightly, but not in a joyful manner. Rather, there is a subtle shade of water in a familiar corner. Eldora tilts her head, noticing the aura.
“But you said she was born a few years ago. I'm sure I remember hearing that. ”
I asked him if he couldn't remember, but Eldora remembered precisely. Because in that day, it was rare for Erwin to remain impressively happy to run around all day long.
