Voluon-san Triumphs

I waited for Ishsan to settle down a bit

It even alet about the threat that the 'Eclipse' was still i on us Almost

I sipped some of my tea, and once Ishsan finally calmed herself she opened herthe cause of this phenomenon We shall also see e can do on our end」

「Thanks By the way, the dungeons located in Ballow doesn't seeht be safe to assu a crisis like that anytieons would pose a threat to the people of Ballow, Ishsan seemed relieved

It was a natural reaction

Because otherwise they would need to oppose the unknown phenomenon that they wouldn't be able to handle all on their own

As a ician, Ishsan was a crucial part of this country's defense line, so it was no exaggeration to say that the lives of the people were resting on her shoulders

She should be praised for not feeling overwhelht that, Ishsan asked carefully

「So, the only clues that we have as of now are those spirits, right?」

「Yes And it seems that one of the perpetrators is none other but Kyle's late wife, Belga Slaggart」

As Nectar chose his words carefully, Ishsan shook her head as though she couldn't believe it

「He mentioned that to me as well That his late as turned into a spirit and that she's being controlled by the criminals」

He explained so much, huh?

While I was surprised, Ishsan stood up and took out a bundle of papers from one of the drawers and handed them to us

「This is a report on the survey that we conducted on behalf of Kyle It seems that the Research and Developic gun was stolen about half a year ago We also discovered that soally questionablequestioned about that as well as being put on disciplinary leave」

Ishsan smiled for a moment, but then her smile all but vanished from her lips

「But truth to be told, around the same time there was someone who tried to break into the royal vault Thanks to the advanced security e to break in and steal anything, but…… Those were probably the same people that caused turmoil in Melias」

The look on Ishsan's face was truly bitter at that ood to hear that the security ed to prevent Lute fro whatever it was that he was after

I turned towards Nectar and he was beaain

「So? What was the ate?」

「It was to thoroughly search each and every dungeon throughout the country」

Ishsan passed us even thicker bundle of papers

「We investigated the eons were built, as well as the materials excavated fro for clues as to why the ancients iped out We were also tasked with investigating just how the dungeons were created in the first place Gradually, ed into this」

I understood right ahat Kyle wanted to acco ic tools all over the country, it would be possible to track the spree

And since Kyle couldn't cover all of the places at the same time, he hired some help to accomplish just that

Ishsan said that this was troublesome, but the staff couldn't siiven theht

「It's a sha of interest The eons arefro e can, however, and ill infor」

With a smile on her face, Ishsan puts even more docuer thick at least

And ere only speaking in estimates

「Please have a read and then pass it on to Kyle If you like, you can even send us a report that sued to collect」

Nectar took all the docuenuinely interested in them he couldn't ive they is not one of my favorite subjects, so please don't expect too ? I heard that once you've read all the books and docuic related in the whole country So, I think that borrowing the knowledge and wisdoe will make our work thatreat to be of soon-sahtly eh to loosen the atain

「Um, umm Technically, I'ive it a brief read, so please wait a ive you any additional sources, please do letthem to you on a monthly basis Thank you for your help」

Then, Nectar began to read through the docu me and Ishsan to our own devices

I'm so sorry, Nectar I'll try toat Ishsan, she winked atNectar was a huge success

「It was Kyle who taughtto him」

It seems that Kyle really knew Nectar better than anyone in this world

I always knew that Nectar was giving his best in doing the things he was interested in, and Kylehis role one day

While I was thinking that, Ishsan leaned over the table and said:

「At first, when I heard that I would be able to solve one of the biggest mysteries in the entire history of the world I was a bit skeptical, but after hearing it froon, I have no reason to doubt that any」

I never would have thought that Ishsan would actually be like that

「That's right And it's not only about stopping the 'Eclipse' here It's about protecting the ones you hold dear I would rather die than let so like that happen」

「Yes, but it's not like this threat is completely unknown to us The ancients knew about it」

「Precisely That is why investigating theive us some kind of a clue」

When I told her about the 'White Youmas' from the East, Ishsan's eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hand

Her reaction wasn't thatthat Ishsan looked as though so of which I was unaware of

「Obsidian Dragon, are you perhaps acquainted with the people of the East?」

「Um, yeah, I know one or two of them」
