An existence that has devoured most of the world and is taboo and hated by humans.

Although she has been sealed away long ago, her remnants still seem to be operating in secret under the name of the Jealous Witch Satira.

They attempted to resurrect the master they served.

These contents are all that Lin Shu can find.

after that.

He skimmed through some other books, but the contents were basically the same.

Lin Shu closed the book in his hand, put it back on the bookshelf, and then looked up.

The shape of this Royal Library is not a common square building, but a cylinder similar to a tower.

Except for the first floor, which is like an ordinary library with bookshelves arranged in rows, each floor above it is placed against the wall.

Because these bookshelves are often tall and numerous, finding a book usually requires reading a bibliography and using a ladder.

When you go up the Book Tower, there is an escalator on each floor.

Lin Shu discovered that there was an alarm device constructed with magic at the end of the escalator.

It will flash when someone steps onto the stairs to confirm whether the person is qualified to enter this floor.

He patiently observed the reactions of others as they ascended the stairs, and finally came to a conclusion.

As long as you can pass through before the magic tool's sensor device captures the sun target, there will be no problem.

Is that speed?

Lin Shu is quite confident about this.

While waiting for another student to step onto the stairs.

Lin Shu then avoided everyone's sight like a ghost.

It passed through the floors slowly and silently like the wind.

I even went up to the 4th floor.

Just when he was about to climb to the top floor, he found a different monitoring point... There was a door installed on the stairs here, and it was locked.

His intuition told him that if he insisted on touching or forcing his way in, it might be very troublesome.

Lin Shu stopped in front of the door.

He found no slit or keyhole.

So this thing is probably powered by magic.

Turning his head, Lin Shu found that the number of people on the first and second floors was the largest.

But after the third floor, there were basically no people left.

.....

Complete the information.

When I came out of the library, the sun began to set.

The sunset dyed the whole city red.

The royal city entered its last noisy period before nightfall.

Lin Shu didn't stay long and quickly returned to the cabin where Elsa was hiding.

Then the two of them had another in-depth conversation.

The next day.

Lin Shu left the royal capital and set off for the earldom where Emilia was.

After two days of investigation, the name of Border Earl Roswaal has appeared in Lin Shu's sight many times.

He was known as the "Court Magician".

They were given the titles of "Red", "Green" and "Yellow".

He is the most powerful magician in the entire Lukenica Kingdom.

At the same time, he is also the open helper and supporter of Emilia, the candidate for the throne.

And the person who hired the Gut Hunter Erza to take Emilia's badge last time.

Although Elsa didn't know what prompted Roswaal to act like this, she still provided Lin Shu with some clues.

·······Requesting flowers········

"He told me to take the badge in a 'simple' way first, avoiding contact with the person involved, and then to eliminate the 'person involved' if I were discovered. This."

If she wasn't lying, then Roswaal must have other intentions.

Really interesting.

"Is the mastermind lurking behind the mask of hypocrisy?"

Looking out from the hired dragon carriage with the curtains lifted, one can easily see the entire border landscape.

Roswaal's fiefdom is located in this stretch of primeval forest, which is full of traces of magical beasts.

These natural disasters, born into this world according to the will of the Witch of Jealousy, constantly threaten the land where people live.

This is why people still hate the witch so strongly even after she has been sealed for so many years.

No one knows why the monsters were born, and they are endless to kill.

Even if they are eliminated for a period of time, new ones will be born soon.

Therefore, humans’ countermeasures against them are usually to have specialized mercenaries or armies drive the monsters into remote forests or mountains.

Then seal it to ensure the smooth flow of traffic and the safety of their living environment.

"The population doesn't seem to be that large."

A glance at the number of nearby buildings gave an estimate of the village's size, with only a few dozen households.

"This is the border, after all," the veteran driver laughed. "Aside from the Great Falls in the east, the northern border of Luknica is the only place without a military presence. Everyone knows Lord Roswaal alone is enough."

Lin Shu smiled when he heard this, but said nothing.

This is not just the driver's opinion, but the consensus of the entire Luknica people.

It can also be seen from the side that the strength of this man named Roswaal.

The driver sitting in the front suddenly raised his voice: "Look, my friend, we are almost at the Earl's residence."

.......... 0

Soon after passing the village, the road gradually became the only one.

At the end of this road, there stood a western-style house, which seemed to be the residence of the border Count Roswaal.

Compared with the Duke's house I visited before, it was less solemn but more elegant.

It is more like a villa in the suburbs. One can see at a glance the care and patience of its manager, as well as his extraordinary accomplishments.

When Lin Shu got out of the car, a maid who was watering and pruning flowers in the front yard looked at Ri Guang and came out to greet him.

The polite maid stood in front of Lin Shu. She had short aqua blue hair and peach-colored lips.

She was wearing a highly rated black and white maid outfit and asked Lin Shu through the iron gate, "Sir, who are you looking for?"

"I'm here to see Miss Emilia. I'm her newest knight. Is she home?"

"Are you a guest of Lady Emilia?" The blue-haired girl opened the door. "Then please come in."

Lin Shu felt that Emilia must have greeted the owner of the house in advance.

He said goodbye to the driver who had brought him here.

Lin Shu walked in under the guidance of the blue-haired maid. Lin Shu found that the maid had been walking in front of him silently.

So, taking advantage of the yard's landscape, I casually said, "Are you the one who maintains this yard? You do a really good job."

"That's Rem's job."

This was a bland, almost indifferent response.

The girl who called herself Rem brought Lin Shu to the hall. "Please wait here, my dear. I will go and inform Lady Emilia."

Lin Shu nodded, and the blue-haired maid bowed and left, leaving him to look around the villa casually.

The kingdom of Luknica itself is similar to medieval Europe, and as the home of a border earl, the style is similar.

The hall is extremely spacious, two stories high, with ivory tiles and red carpet on the floor.

There is a spiral escalator on the front, leading to the corridor on the second floor in the east and west directions.

Lin Shu observed it when he came in from outside.

It was discovered that there were even pointed towers at both ends of the building, which shows how luxurious it is.

However, compared to the spaciousness and openness of the villa, there are far fewer residents here.

At the Duke's Mansion, Lin Shu only waited for a short while before he saw two dragon carriages coming in and out.

Leaving aside the front hall, there are many servants working in other places.

However, when I arrived at Roswaal's mansion, I had only seen Rem, and I couldn't sense any other people's activities in the house.

Just as Lin Shu was secretly speculating, a cheerful voice came from the direction of the terrace: "Lin Shu, you're here!"

Emilia, wearing a pink dress, appeared in Lin Shu's sight.

This is her casual dress, made of less material but with surprisingly good workmanship.

The clothes delicately outline the exquisite figure.

The girl looked at Lin Shu with unconcealable joy.

Lin Shu gave her a knight's salute: "Miss Emilia, as your knight, I have come to report as agreed."

"Still the same bad etiquette." Emilia said this, covering her mouth and laughing softly.

Parker, resting his head on his pillow, floated out from behind Emilia and teased, "Oh my, who was that person just now in the room saying, 'Why hasn't anyone come yet? Did something happen?'"
