47, Magic Book(1/2)

It was around nine o'clock in the morning.

The streets are filled with the sweet fragrance of breakfast.

Violet went to the "Born Miss" as usual to return Xier's hand-woven basket.

After seeing her, the cat girls who were cleaning at the entrance of the store surrounded the girl and greeted her warmly.

The store manager Miya's mother didn't say anything when she saw it. After all, the pub was open at night, and the clerks usually cleaned or purchased ingredients and various supplies needed in the store during the day.

The girl responded to the enthusiasm of the cat girls one by one and pulled their tails by the way.

"That, this is a basket, thank you for your breakfast."

When he came to Xier, Violet handed over the woven basket.

"Hehe," Xier took the basket with a smile, "How about it, my craftsmanship has improved?"

"Yeah, it's delicious."

"Just like it," Xier said with a smile, "By the way, can today's dishes be the same as before?"

"Yes," said Violet, "but don't pack one more."

"Isn't it in line with your friend's taste?" Xier looked slightly confused, and her light gray hair hung down from one side.

"No, she just... went home."

Although it was only a moment, Xier still captured the lonely feeling in Violet's eyes.

"That's it... I understand, then I'll pack less." Xier touched the girl's head with pity, "But there's no need to be so sad. Friends will always see you again. Maybe when will your friends come to play with you again?"

"Yes, we'll see you again." Violet cheered up a little, "and it doesn't matter if I don't have it. Winnie's family will take good care of her, better than me!"

Looking at the girl's dazed but very confident expression, Xier couldn't help but smile.

"By the way, Miss Violet, do you like reading?"

"Reading?" said Violet, "Does comic books count?"

"What is a comic book... But if you like it, I happen to have a copy here that I can give to you. It was left by a customer in the store." As he said, Xier picked up a black book on the table next to him, with no cover and looked very thick.

"But... this is what someone else left behind?"

"Haha, you're so stupid," said the cat girl on the side. "I carelessly put the book in a place where there are mixed things like a tavern, and I want to find it back?"

"This book has been in the store for several days," said Xier. "No one has come to search for it. It seems that the other party doesn't plan to find it. Instead of putting it here, why don't you take it back and read it?"

"oh oh……"

Violet accepted the book in a daze.

Xier looked at her back as she walked away and smiled very healedly.

Ten o'clock.

The warm morning light shines on the giant white tower and the vast square below.

The highest point of the Tower of Babel, inside the luxurious sacred room.

The beautiful god's cherry-colored lips lightly opened.

"You said, are there adventurers hunting talked monsters?"

"This is the guess below." The tall Pig Man O'It stood beside the silver-haired beauty god, reporting on his own words, "It's a pity that the strange monster wave was affected by the strange monster tide, and they escaped... It was very ashamed."

"It's okay, since it's a majeure factor, you can't blame me." Freya leaned gracefully on the back of the chair, "But I still want you to monitor the situation of those hunters."

"Did you feel compassion for those monsters?"

"What, no?"

"No, your will is our pursuit, and we are just curious."

"Haha, actually those monsters don't care about me, but I don't want to see the sad face of the child." Freya sat in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window and said with emotion, "Or I'll be heartbroken."

"…I know it." Ota closed his eyes slightly, "So do you need to send someone to protect them?"

"Not for the time being," Freya smiled slightly, "By the way, is there anything interesting in the city recently?"

"No...but if you insist on saying anything, Lu Ye and his group have caused a lot of discussion in the adventurer's circle recently."

"Oh?" Freya raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly and expressed her interest in it.

"I heard that Lu Ye and the other two have been to be supporters recently."

"The supporters... are those who are not capable and earn rewards by helping adventurers bring luggage and bags?" Freya said. "He seems to be not bad at all. Why do you do this?"

"I don't know yet, but it is said that he does not carry luggage like ordinary supporters, but acts as a 'bodyguard' and only charges five hundred Farris to each person."

"Five Hundred Farri?" Freya burst out laughing, as if she had heard a funny joke, "It's even lower than the price of a meal in Miya's shop! But what's the purpose of doing this? People like him can earn more money to go to the dungeon than to charge a hundred adventurers."

"This is exactly what makes me confused," said Ota, "but... through some time of observation, I also have a little insight."

"Speak and listen."

"He is not to make money, but to build connections."

"Contacts?"

"Yes, connections in the dungeon." Ota said respectfully, "Operation in the dungeon, if not necessary, the Adventurers teams would not approach each other, but he broke this."

The beautiful silver-haired god lowered his eyes and listened quietly.

"In just a few days, he has gained the trust of many people by protecting adventurers and saving adventurers who are in trouble in dungeons," said Ota. "So far, as far as I have seen with my own eyes, those who see Lu Ye and his group will not only not stay away, but will take the initiative to discuss intelligence, purchase props they lack, or want to join the team."

Ota paused and continued, "I'm afraid there will be no other person in the whole of Olarine who can do this except him. Even if we or the powerful clans such as the Loki clan, we cannot gain the trust of adventurers in such a short time. It is not a matter of strength. The most fundamental reason is that Lu Ye and his men themselves are neutral, and they have not joined any clan, and they do not belong to any force."

"Indeed, there are many adventurers in the tavern who have taken the initiative to talk to them recently, and there are also those who come to toast specifically..." Freya murmured as if she remembered something.

"They were inferences in the end. They did this to collect certain information in the dungeon."

"Is it information..." Freyyas stumbled.

"Yes, maybe it's information about the talking monsters, or something else... In short, they are looking for information about certain things in the dungeon, but in the following view, it is better to collect information about intelligence in Oralini, and much better."

"Maybe, for them, the news about Orali is not valuable?" Freya suddenly said.

"Forgive the ignorance."

"The time difference of information... is there such a statement?" Freya's finger gently brushed across her jaw, "It's like the dragon girl who appeared in the city the day before yesterday. It took half a day from the time and place of the incident to the point where it happened, and then to the point where it was transmitted to my ears. Since they will win over the trust of adventurers, it means they have to grasp first-hand news, especially in places like dungeons... it has life."

"I'll learn more."

"This is just my guess..." Freya narrowed her eyes and smiled in a slight way, "Oh, how have you investigated the special monsters that have appeared recently?"

"Shame, I have no idea. Even though I have already reached the 46th floor and encountered those monsters several times on the way, I still have not grasped their movements. They rushed and appeared suddenly and disappeared suddenly, like ghosts. Most monsters in the dungeon have instincts and will run away when they encounter danger, but they seem to be not afraid of death at all... They just run in the dungeon. They followed them twice, wanting to know where their destination was, but they have no destination, they just ran wildly in the posture of squeezing their lives until they fell on the road and turned into ashes... For some reason, there is a feeling below that those monsters are like souls lost in the maze, looking for an exit."

"Is that... I understand." Freya said in a low voice, "If I guess correctly, their purpose should be those lost monsters... or the reason why the monsters become like that, because besides talking monsters, only these new strange phenomena are the reasons why there is very little information on Orali and needs to be explored in the dungeon in person. Ota, from now on, send more people to find out about the monsters..."

"Are you interested in this?"

"After hearing that there are talking monsters, I began to think about something. Children in the lower world will be reborn through the hands of our gods after they die, but... what about monsters?" Freya looked at the bright sunshine outside, "The monsters in the dungeon are endless, because there are endless monsters that will be born in the dungeon. What about this?"

"you……"

Ota's eyes widened slightly.

The gods will never lose interest in the "unknown".

"Okay, that's the end of this topic," said Freya. "By the way, the Magic Book has been done. I've been looking for it for a long time. Only that book is suitable for her and can seduce her potential... I'll add another one on the bookshelf."

"Of course, but didn't you say you didn't want to interfere with that child?"

"I can't hold back anymore," Freya smiled slightly, her eyes slightly blurred, "Only that person... I want it so much, as if I protect that smile. If the child dies, I must follow his soul back to heaven."

"Understand, follow God's will."

"Oh, do you have no thoughts?" Freya looked at the tall pig man in front of her, "Maybe I will regard that child as more important than you. Maybe I will take away your current status and let that child replace you. If the child really dies, I will abandon you relatives without hesitation and follow his soul back to heaven?"

"Your love is equal to everyone, only special, no good or bad," Ota said respectfully, "I believe that even if I leave here, your love will not disappear..."

The silver pupils are intertwined with the earth-red pupils.

In the midst of silence, O'It bent down its tall body and quietly lowered its head.

"Sorry, I'm overthrowing..."

"It's okay, I like you more now."

"This is the supreme glory of being down. But if this continues, Lu Ye and his party will not come to you, right?"

"Don't worry, I want to spend a little more time with her in that capacity," Freyar paused, "but it's a bit regretful. I want to see what you, a gentleman, would look like when you are jealous."

"Just have a word from you."

"Ah hahaha! Please, don't make me laugh like this, okay? If I see you seriously jealous, I will not be confident that I can't help but laugh."

Freya laughed happily.

She covered her mouth lightly and laughed like a young girl.

Seeing his goddess like this, Ota's face was always tight, his serious face shook a little, and the pig ears on both sides of his head bent slightly in a strange direction.

"Okay," Freya waved her hand after laughing happily, "I'm going to rest. I'll have some more busy later, so you can get back first."
To be continued...
