I started looking for the book and a few hours passed.
Looking at the title of the book, I first decided whether it seemed to be about the engraving or not, and then I found a book called The Book of Forbidden Arts, which I tried to read.
The text was understandable, but the sentences written were incoherent and I couldn't understand the contents as if they were incoherent, so I gave up reading it.
I thought that maybe Mekku would be able to understand it, so I showed him, and he struggled a lot, but he managed to understand it. However, it did not seem to contain any information about the Mark and the curse.
After that, I continued to look for books that might have information on the curse and the Mark.
Much time has passed.
I'm getting hungry and tired, so I decided to call it a day.
''There wasn't any today.''
Well, it's not going to be easy to find out from day one.
The first day came up empty and we went back to the inn.
The next day I continued to look for books.
'This, this book!
Raina makes a startled sound.
You found it! I don't think so.
Lenya is looking for books with engravings and curses, but when she finds a book that she personally cares about, she reads it!
What book do you have on the subject...?
Mek also knew Lenya, so he asked in a slightly dumbfounded tone.
''The 100 most forbidden dishes! For a list of dishes that are so good that they'll kill your spirit if you eat them!
Sure enough, it was a cookbook.
But if you eat it, you'll die because it's too good to be true. It's just a book that's in here.
"You're still the same you're always looking for it, seriously!
Meow....
It's the usual scene when Meku gets mad at you and makes a dent in your life.
"I'm sorry, nya. I found another one, but do you want this one too...
It's gotta be something to do with food, right?
That's not true. It's called "On the Witch of Life".
See, it's not........Ri.... The witch of life...?
That one.
Lenya showed us a white book.
The cover was white except for the words about the witch of life in the title.
'The Witch of Life....'
Wasn't it the witch who put the curse on Meku?
I can't say for sure, because I only heard a voice, but I'm sure it was a woman's voice.
'So it could be a witch, then. But a life witch doesn't sound like something you'd put a curse on.
I think so too. I think so, too. I'm glad you found me, Lenya.
"Mya-ha!
Feeling a little happy at Mek's praise, Lenya handed Mek a book.
Mek reads it.
I'm curious as to what it says about curses, but I continue to search for the book here.
A few minutes pass without finding a book that looks good.
Then.
This is...!
Mek shouted loudly.
'What's going on?'
'No ... um ... well ...'
Do we have a clue?
In response to Raina's question.
Maybe this life witch is the woman who put the curse on me.
Mek replied.
