Act 4: Chapter 44: Questioning

The day after the fierce battle against the Ruler of The Sky, I officially received the reward for defeating the Dragon King from Riddler.

I visited the underground of the Dragon King's castle with Riddler again.

We head to another place in the underground similar with the treasury before heading to the treasury.

It was the jail for Ramiel.

Ramiel's arms were chained and suspended upward, bandage with complicated magic formulae was wrapped around her body.

That was restraining art used to seal the physical strength of dragonfolk.

There were two reasons for the restrained Ramiel to be held in the basement of the Dragon King's castle.Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)

The first was to prevent her from escaping, and the second reason was because she was restrained using the magical power of the dragon hole.

In addition, she was kept in the deepest part of the basement of the Dragon King's castle to prevent other dragonfolk from assisting her to escape.

There was actually no reason to go that far since this area was a sanctuary that not even the Dragon Saint was allowed to enter.

As long as the current system existed, it was literally impossible for other dragonfolk to come in contact with Ramiel behind the back of the Dragon King.

Oh my? look at who we got here, the Dragon King and Kanata. Never expected that you're going to visit me this fast, are you trying to get more information about the Invisible Hand of God from me? Too bad then, I have no intention to tell you more about us. I won't change my mind even if you tortured me or threatened me you know?

Ramiel smiled fearlessly.

It seems she was serious.

To begin with, she was supposed to become a sacrifice to revive the dragon hole.

Meaning that the weapon was no threat to her.

So I might be as well as giving up in trying to get the information from her.

I want to ask about Rosemonde. Is she safe?

Rosemonde, that weak adventurer huh, well, I shake her off completely in the city of Polorock. Supposed that she isn't moving around, you might be able to find her in that city.

Ramiel replied quickly.

It seems the reason why she hid Rosemonde's safety was to provoke me.

That lass was harmless Well, not that I hate her in particular. I mean, can you stop treating me as if I'm some sort of devilish homicide? I'm not crazy enough to kill everyone who met me you know?

I heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that.

It wasn't reliable information but, Ramiel might be telling the truth.

Pomera and I stopped before we looked back at Ramiel.

She might have too much time on her hands. I mean, she said the same thing yesterday.

Riddler spoke curtly before he started walking again.

I was about to follow him when suddenly Philia grabbed the cuff of my clothes.

H-Hey, Kanata That girl seems to feel, lonely.

Kihihihihi! Are you seriously trying to fight the Invisible Hand of God without any prior information!? Humans are stupid indeed. Our fight has already been told to them by World's Recorder, Sofia. At this point, you won't be able to use brute force to force your way out again. The only reason for my defeat is because of the lack of information about you. The Invisible Hand of God is the absolute ruler of this Lochlore Their darkness ran far deeper than the likes of you. Kihihihi You can at least struggle to not get yourself drown in their darkness.

Ramiel spoke rapidly.

She looks desperate for sure Muttered Pomera as she looked at Ramiel with a gaze filled with pity.

She won't say anything since it's only a few days since she got imprisoned but, her tone is annoying. It's troublesome since she spoke without saying anything at all, wasting time. Maybe Ramiel is prevented from giving us a certain level of information.

Riddler heaved a sigh as he spoke.

For someone who was fussing over the status and strange mission, Ramiel seems to be quite loose-lipped.

That might be the characteristic of ancient dragonfolk.

Her personality might get distorted due to getting power after she was betrayed by the mission imposed on their race and became a dragon pillar after being deemed as a failure.

Oh right, let's make a deal, Kanata. Bring that female adventurer Rosemonde. If you did so, I'll give you the information about the Demon King of Sixth Heaven, Nobunaga. This is an offer for me to prepare you to fight against his trump card. Originally, that guy has no qualification to join the Invisible Hand of God due to him being a battle junkie. It won't be a bad offer since it will give you a chance to defeat hi Eh, do you hear me!?

The only one who still paid attention to Ramiel was Philia, alas she quickly turned around, albeit reluctantly, and walked toward us when Pomera called out for her.

Why did she take a liking to Rosemende?

Maybe Ramiel was attracted by Rosemonde's meddlesome personality since the former was quite a carefree girl.
