"I read letters at a constant rate, so I can see the approximate time in the number of pages in the book I read. Besides, where the sun can't confirm, we try to count the number of steps from the entrance and the elapsed time. The basics of adventurers."
"No, and you're very accurate"
"Sometimes days will pass when you dive into a cave. I've also been trained to be awake in a certain amount of time. I just can't take much fatigue, and I can't do it without focusing. Well, he's an adventurer, you give in to your master.
Did you find anything better than that?
"No, not yet. I'm not as quick to read as you are. I've only seen a few books yet."
"Here you go, then."
Alphilis gave Marduk a chunk of several books. When Marduk received the book, he confirmed the title. The cover of the book at the top reads Tarram's teller record. The age was more than 30 years ago from now.
"What's this?
"I happen to see that there's an Arnelia charity project as a grant from Tarrum to an emerging business. The founder of the charity is a man named Volgius, who gets a good amount of money. The material below is the result of that charity. His charity is in a different category than Arnelia's, and his address is different from that of the church. If you believe the record, it says you rescued dozens of orphans a year and sent them to society.
The investment period is 20 years. It won't be funded now, but the people he raised are successful in society, and some run chambers of commerce and stuff in this taram. Now it looks like they're running a charity with their money. "
"Oh my..."
"I don't know, but it looks like that Volgius guy looked for something he could not rely on Arnelia's investment. Looks like it worked out just by looking at the results. I thought he was a fine man on the paperwork. Actually, what do you think?
"No, it's..."
I wanted to say that he would be a fine man, but Marduk doesn't know Volgius that well either. I thought it was right not to give an opinion.
But Alphilis has produced another dossier of concern.
"And this stays on the tarram side, charity teller records. The financial sector is pretty good this year at recording even the way we run the funds we give. Corsens, who was killed, would have been a pretty good person, too.
So, look at that record. Is there anything strange about it?
"Weird place?
Marduk turned all over the paperwork. I'm not weak on numbers, but I think I'm going to faint when it's so much of a line of numbers. Still, I noticed something strange while I was watching.
"Survey costs, labor costs, miscellaneous expenses... not a big deal, but oddly enough, are there many items?
"I think so, too. I may not be even uncomfortable if I just processed it on the paperwork, but there are strangely more items of expense along the way. I spent a little while increasing the items and was using them for something. I wonder what you were using it for?
For excellence, I thought it might be oddly ineffective. Neither does the neighborhood crusade request so much, but with all that power without permission to Arnelia, what was it operating on? Were you dealing with something in Tarram? Various possibilities come to Marduk's head and disappear. Volgius said. He said he could clean everything up today. Were there any bandits among them?
"- Are you going to finish the bandrass?"
"Did I say something?
"No, I could have done it. Let's borrow this material. I beg your pardon."
"Fine, but... is it good to talk about the rulers of Tarram?
It is a marduk with a smiling alphilis and a slender spine. How far does this mercenary know about this situation? I may have been covered up, but I didn't think I could hide it through.
"I'll leave you to it. If you need anything, I'd love to know."
"I'll do some more research before I go. If you need anything, I'll report it. Then just one. Maybe the rulers of Tarram are not alone."
"What do you mean?
"It's not like the rulers of Tarram are good people, is it? I've looked into assuming you're a villain, but there are also many shady incidents in Tarram. I'm worried about the words that come up in those cases." Mask "and" Torturer ". These two words have emerged over the years. That's what's been happening for over 200 years. Obviously, there's someone behind the tarram who's trying to confuse the tarram itself. And the forces trying to stop it.
Light and shadow - well, they're both behind the tarram like shadows, but I'm thinking there's more than one ruler of the tarram, and they're probably fighting. "
"I see, it's interesting - but I don't have time right now. Let's just say we'll consider it slowly later. Excuse me!"
Marduk left early when he returned his heel. Both the Alliance and Arnelia have once failed to finish the Banderas. Marduk thought there was no way he could beat such a difficult opponent sooner. If you just can't win. Zems is even Miriazal's opponent who decided to be static. I thought that if I were to take a detour from my people, I wouldn't be able to do it without the right preparation. We have to keep it in mind. The thought is speeding up Marduk's legs.
I don't know you're thinking about that, but Alphilis drops off the hindsight of leaving early enough, with his eyes round.
"You're the guy at the scene, that guy. The commander doesn't seem right. So, was someone seconded by Arnelia as a watchman? Or did Miranda deliberately want to put him in command and watch the move? Well, when I get home, shall I ask Miranda?
And without physical evidence of the ruler... if it's not in the letters, later. "
As Alphilis jumped off a pile of books, he changed the shelves to browse. It was the painting shelves that went. There is an inventory of Tarram's first works of art and so on.
"Is the real thing sold elsewhere again, or all over the continent? What do you see in kind?
What Alphilis saw in his eyes was a picture book. The epidemic has begun in urban areas as something for children to read, but it is more than 250 years old when you look at the age. If it existed from that era, wouldn't it be one of the oldest on the continent? The concept of civic education was already present in Tarram at that time. I thought this alone would be of one historical value, but Alphilis simply took the picture book in his hands, attracting interest.
