Well, if all we want to do is find the mastermind, all we have to do is send Hercules on his way home and watch him with clairvoyance. ...... I'm worried that we don't have any prior information about the identity of the mastermind.
Isn't there any good way to get some information? .......
I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.
"Valerius, do you have a minute?
"Uh, I'm in the middle of something. ...... Is it urgent?
No, it's nothing urgent, but ...... there's something I was wondering if I should tell you. I thought I'd tell you now that I've calmed down a bit.
Artemis seemed to have a bad taste in her mouth.
The truth is, I'm not really in the mood for it right now, but ...... it sounds like something important.
I'll just listen for a bit.
If it's too long, I'll ask you later. But if not, please keep it ...... short.
"Actually. A little while after I transferred Valius to that extendable stick, ...... the Qilin's condition took a sudden turn.
"...... Kirin?
I couldn't believe my ears.
It's not exactly a living thing, so it's not going to get sick at all, but ......1 there's one condition that can cause a qilin to get sick.
You don't think that's what happened, do you?
I'll let you know the details.
What the hell is going on?
I sent the Qilin home immediately. I sent the Qilin home immediately, and after it left, I nursed it with my clairvoyance. ...... The Qilin had nightmares for about a whole day. And after that, the Kirin vomited heavily and then started to get better.
"I see. ......
Vomiting, huh.
It looks like it happened just as I thought it would.
There are two main functions of the Kirin.
The first is, of course, the role of the "demon protection system", such as material exchange and awakening evolution.
The second is the role of "sealing the four gods" that traps evil gods that harm humans inside their bodies.
However, even the evil gods trapped inside the Qilin are not immune to resistance.
At regular intervals, the Qilin will reach its limit and vomit (release the evil gods).
As I was thinking about this, Artemis said to me.
I didn't mean to hide it or anything. In fact, I probably should have told you sooner, but I wanted to ...... wait until things calmed down before I told you. I'm sorry.
No, it's okay. I said earlier that I was in the middle of something, but now that ...... Artemis has told me, I think I'm closer to solving that problem. Thank you.
"Oh, really? That's good to know.
Yeah.
In fact, the release of the evil gods and the enhanced Hercules may not actually be unrelated.
The actual relationship is only if the four gods that I assume are the evil gods are released. ...... There's no point in asking Artemis about that.
I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this.
I'm not sure what to do.
Yes. He seems to be feeling much better now, so I think you can summon him at .......
"Okay.
I replied, and cut the communication with Artemis.
So, now it's Kirin.
I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure you'll be able to do it.
"Kirin, appear before me and ...... let us make a mutually beneficial trade.
I cast my spell.
"What, chanting magic? Why?
What kind of magic is that? I've never heard of it, but I've heard of it. ...... There's something coming out!
