I was transported from Lobotomy Corporation to another world.

Rena explained to Anlisa what had just happened and about the cult.

And he also mentioned the "gloating" that Red had mentioned.

Anlisa became serious and quickly came to believe it.

The main reason was that while he was leading his troops on guard duty, many villagers or adventurers from other places entered the town.

And most of them were blindfolded and looked rather neurotic, constantly glancing around.

When asked what was wrong, they said they didn't know and could only assume they were sick.

They came to seek medical treatment.

But Reed knew they didn't have a cure here; with this lingering effect, a coffin was now available for purchase.

Next, Anlisa said she needed to report to her minister first and that the matter needed to be taken seriously.

Of course, some people have already realized that this matter is very serious.

You can see it as soon as you step outside; a person with a blindfold.

The priests and doctors at the Holy Healing Church were also at a loss with these patients, having tried various methods, all to no avail.

The town's strongest priest cast a spell, but it was to no avail.

The Holy Healing Hall has also informed the mayor about this "strange disease".

After hearing the last sentence, Anlisa said, "I will tell the minister about this. To ensure the credibility of this matter, you two should come and be witnesses."

Rena: "Huh? I'm not exactly a witness, I've been in the shop the whole time."

Red is "interfering with my time..." (meaning he's getting in the way of sleeping).

Anlisa explained, "You two have to go! Reina is taking you mainly because of Redna."

Rena looked at Reed and said, "What does this have to do with me?"

"It's all because Redner would sometimes turn into a wooden statue and stand motionless! I was afraid he'd fall asleep halfway through his story!"

Reid raised his hand and his lazy voice came out, "In that case, I guess I don't need to go."

"You need to describe that creature more completely! And how exactly do you know about it? You seem to know a lot about it."

"Because you know me best, I can only bring you along."

It's said that Reed didn't want to talk about how he met [someone] [who was gloating].

Finally, Reed went with the two women.

Location: Gothic Town Soldiers' Camp

Led by An Lisha, they arrived at her military camp.

Red observes the buildings and people; the buildings are constructed of some kind of stone material and appear quite sturdy.

The soldiers were chatting and laughing; some were quite serious, while others were rather laid-back.

And the majority of them are male soldiers, with very few female soldiers.

Anlisa has become the captain, so her strength must be extraordinary.

Reed mentally praised Anlisa.

Reed wasn't the kind of guy who was arrogant because of his strength.

Getting Red to actually offer a compliment is harder than getting him to chat and laugh with [Nothing to My Name].

This led many people at the company to believe that Reed was arrogant and cold, like a block of ice.

The soldier was filled with curiosity when he saw the two unfamiliar people behind Anlisa.

The main reason is that soldiers are mostly in training and don't have much time for leisure.

He gets very curious when he encounters something new and interesting, especially since the two women are standing behind Reed, who is 1.8 meters tall.

The way Reed looked around reminded the soldiers of how their battalion commander observed training.

After some further checks, they successfully reached the minister's room.

Anlisha opened the door and saw the minister inside, sorting through sheets of yellow paper.

The two women greeted each other, explaining why they were there.

The minister was a middle-aged man, wearing high-quality iron armor and sporting a white beard.

The minister invited the three of them to sit down and placed the sheets of paper on the table aside.

The three sat in chairs, and Rena, somewhat nervous, sat as if standing at attention.

Reed slumped back in his chair, showing absolutely no sign of tension.

Anlisa began, "Minister Kesen, the girl next to me is my friend, and that one is..."

Anlisa almost didn't want to recognize Reed anymore, given his utter lack of respect and manners.

"Ahem... This one is called Redner."

From the moment the three entered, Kerson noticed Reid standing out the most.

Without saying hello or speaking, he found a chair and slumped down in it.

Kerson usually finds this kind of impolite behavior rather annoying.

Aside from Reed, who clearly looked unusual, what was even stranger was that his face was completely covered up and could not be seen at all.

There was even a bandage wrapped around his eye, and Kerson didn't know why.

After tidying up his things, Kesen said, "Speak, what is it?"

"It's about the Black Crown cult and the increasing number of people acting crazy lately."

The minister gave a knowing look, then said, "Someone told me about this shortly this morning. I've already informed the mayor, and he asked me to investigate."

"I was just about to head out to set up an investigation team."

Anlisa nodded and continued, "We've found a clue, or more accurately, we've found the reason."

The minister perked up instantly upon hearing this, and the fatigue from reading so much information vanished in an instant.

"Have you found the cause?"

Anlisa nodded and recounted the cult's attack on the town.

Kerson listened with increasing seriousness. The reason for the cult's attack on the town was unknown, and there were no clues to confirm whether they would attack.

The main reason is that Reed only remembered the fact that they would attack the town.

Reid didn't remember any of the analyses and clues that Ouyang Qing gave him.

Although there are no clues or reasons, the fact that the cult has increased its strength in the past few days is enough to be considered a clue.

Kerson chose to believe them; after all, it was unlikely that three people would come to him to lie.

After all, providing false information can lead to execution.

With his arms crossed, Kesen asked, "The Black Crown Cult has made its statement clear, so is the recent appearance of this madman also due to the cult?"

This question was left to Reina to answer.

"That's right, it was also the work of a cult."

"Or to be more precise, it was the work of a monster."

Kerson asked, "Impossible. I've looked through all the monster illustrations near the town, and there's no creature that could cause this."

Rena continued, "It's a new monster, a new creature."

Kerson remained silent, listening quietly.

Rena was able to articulate the meaning of "schadenfreude" and even recount the appearance Reed had described.

After hearing this, Kerson rubbed his beard, frantically wondering if such a creature even existed.

Did we reach a conclusion in the end? If not, then this proves that it truly is a new organism.

Kerson wasn't actually that surprised by the discovery of the new creature.

After all, in this fantasy world, even skeletons that have turned to bones can come back to life and attack people.

But aside from this time when I was somewhat surprised, because of the appearance described by the other party...

It's very strange; in fact, you could say there are no creatures like this in the entire world.

Kerson remained skeptical because what the other person said was too novel for him to accept immediately.

The two women also noticed each other's skepticism, and they reached out and poked Reid.

Reed felt helpless and was about to speak.

Anlisa quickly tugged at Reid and whispered, "Be polite, don't say their full name."

After Anlisha finished speaking, she let go of her hand, feeling as if the weight in her heart had finally disappeared.

I've witnessed firsthand how Red communicates these past few days. Red has absolutely no emotional intelligence when he speaks, and he's incredibly blunt.

If I hadn't known that Reed didn't do it on purpose, I probably would have been red-hot by now.

Anlisa meant that if you want Reed, you shouldn't say "[Kerson]" directly, but rather "Minister Kerson," because that makes a better first impression.

But after hearing this, Reed suddenly felt like his mind couldn't process it.

If you don't call someone by their full name, what should you call them?

When Reid was about to ask what he should be called, he noticed that Kerson was already looking at him.

Reed's brain was frantically processing how to address the other person, and finally, after some calculation, he said it!

"Old man?"
