Egret

Chapter 2. Statement

Then Heb uncovered his teeth and growled.

Krrrr.

“Hiik.”

Those who remained snooping around, when they saw Heb, ran out as if they had been frightened and driven out.

Edan carefully called Judas, who checked the lively Heb with his side tears.

“... Judas. ”

“Yes, can I ask you one question? ”

Wigdrasil, who turned his head in the direction of his voice, nodded with a smile.

“Yes, as much as you like. ”

“How is the control of the Portal Management Office carried out? ”

“I'm on guard inside and out of the control room. There is also a strong sacred shield in place to prevent people from entering and leaving without permission. Alarms are also specified to trigger an alarm automatically when the shield is broken. ”

To put it bluntly, it was a triple security system. The guards stood guard over the control room and left a shield, and an alarm was sounded to respond immediately if the shield was broken.

“But no one saw the culprit? ”

“…… You already know that it's not just a failure. That's right, the portal was deliberately compromised by an intruder. But nobody found that intruder last night. It seems that the alarm magic destroyed the formula before it was activated. ”

The intruder was more skilled than I thought.

In order to be able to damage the facilities that the Papal Office was strictly managing, not just to infiltrate them, but without any noise, it was likely to be a recognizable person within the Empire.

It was a matter of piercing the Pope's security.

Edan and Cristina, who noticed that later, were also firmly stiffened. Things were going pretty badly.

“Priests have been looking everywhere since dawn to find intruders, but there are no traces left, making it difficult. This is similar to……. ”

Wigdrasil spoke in a serious tone towards the three men.

“This is a skill you can doubt about the contemporary Greg. ”

The three from the portal management room were lost and looked at each other.

There was no reason for great anxiety because I still had a few days to get out.

Moreover, if the return date was delayed due to portal problems, the point would also be taken into account by the institute.

Cristina opens her mouth, staring at Judas, who is still in her senses, with her chin still as usual.

“It's a situation where the modern man's name will be discussed. It must be for obvious reasons that such a skilled man has undermined the portal here at this point. ”

Edan nodded his head a little and said yes.

“This will not be the end. Maybe the portal was closed first because someone was targeting it, then the target was……. ”

The two eyes converged towards Judas. Judas, who was missing the flow because he was thinking differently, looked up suspiciously at them with a late glance.

“Hmm?”

“There's a good chance it's you, Judas. ”

“…… you should be careful. ”

Judas, who looked at the two of them seriously, grasped the atmosphere and smiled.

“Oh, I think so. Thank you for your concern. ”

“I warned you more than I was worried. ”

Cristina coldly corrects with her eyes down. Still, the look on her face has not changed.

Judas touches his jaw with a smile.

“Well, it would be easier if I had a goal. ”

“Yes?”

“What is there to gain for me, that I cannot even do my part? Even if you're looking for one of your visitors, you might be looking for someone with a high status. You should be more careful than I am. ”

Edan and Cristina look as if they were stabbed in the eye.

It was something I had never thought of. The first prince was a half-penny prince who had not even sat on the throne yet.

Of course, the Emperor's car, which he loved, was no longer recognized by the system.

The weak body, which no longer grows out of the appearance of a seven-year-old, drove him away from the rumor that he would soon live and die.

The actual function of the body was stopped, so it was not even a very wrong rumor.

At least Judas was steadily refining his body and fulfilling his will to recover, so his condition was improving slightly.

But what surprised them was that Judas was evaluating himself rather than the content.

‘I have no hesitation in expressing my own tribe. ’

‘…… it would have been easier if the goal had been you. ’

Judas, they felt, was gentle in everything, but he was rational enough to be creepy about himself.

Moreover, the seemingly unsettling attitude of not taking threats as a threat made them feel even more unsettled.

The two again came to the same conclusion.

‘As always, the White Emperor was simply an image he created. ’

It was true that his body was weak, but perhaps he hid his claws to survive. And one day there would surely be a day to reveal those claws.

Cristina, who had thought of the prince in the meantime, went beyond fury to destroy him.

To conclude, Lubach's entire school plays in his hands.

No, it's not just the academy, it's all around the empire!

This was, of course, a fairly erroneous conclusion which had nothing to do with the actual Judas.

“That's why. I'm thinking of baiting before someone damages the intruder. Why don't you help me? ”

“…… Yes? ”

“…… bait? ”

Faced with curious eyes, Judas raises his hand slightly instead of speaking. A gentle breeze follows his hand and circles around.

“Spirit is the power of nature itself. You can rest easy to find intruders by following human trails. It will be difficult to find him and defeat him. ”

The difficulty here did not simply mean the difference in skills. If we can't prove him even if we find the culprit, it seems like he's a crook.

Of course, I didn't intend to reveal my power completely in front of the others, so there was also the awkward thing to deal with.

“I want to talk to him myself. ”

“But Judas, Spirits are a tremendous advantage, but they can be dangerous in the present situation. ”

Rather, Edan expressed his gratitude for not being poisoned.

“If you really did show up, even the contemporary Igretra..... ”

“ ……. ”

At this point Judas became very distressed.

Thinking about it, the world didn't even know that Igrett was dead.

It was decades after he gave up living with people and wandered through nature with the spirits.

So to put it precisely, the world didn't even know his life.

However, he was not mindful of the assumption that the great power he showed went beyond the ordinary human category and therefore died vaguely.

An old man who's as old as he gets when he's alive. But the world didn't treat him as human until the end.

Judas, who was familiar with the facts, shook his head without drawing out the 'possibility that Igrett had aged'.

“Well……. If you were a magician dealing with spirits, you would have used your hands so you wouldn't be able to track them in the first place. But it's not just the spiritualist. ”

While relieved by the answer, Edan still did not have a hard face.

“Is Judas worth taking the risk for himself? ”

According to him, this was a matter to be resolved by the diocese.

Since the intruder who broke the portal had not done much harm yet, Judas had no need to move first.

Nevertheless, Judas' thoughts were a little different. The obligation to fulfill responsibilities as a member who was directly involved in the design of the portal was a second issue.

It was not arrogance, but it would have been difficult to stop him if he had targeted someone with enough skill to be mentioned.

It's just a bystander if you can find out where he is, have enough power, and don't stop him from predicting what to do.

‘I can't make the same mistakes as before. ’

If you repeat the mistake, it can no longer be called a mistake. Judas was familiar with it.

“I'm just trying to do what I can. ”

I'm also taking off my nickname as "igrette." Edan and Cristina exchange eyes, leaving him smiling nicely.

“…… then. ”

“We have to do what we can. ”

Cristina just shook her hand and concluded.

The three waited for the day to get a little darker.

At sunset, the Pope's office was finally shut down after all the services.

People who waited for the portal to open sometimes wandered around, but it wasn't a number to care about.

In addition to the Passover ceremony, during the day full service was complicated, but there were many controlled areas that made it difficult to move.

It was now less time for people to vacate their seats for dinner.
