I rushed to the student council room.The people in the room were Rafina and Julius.
Oh, Julius-san wanted it too, didn't he?
“Yeah, I'm a special elementary school teacher.”
Pushing the glasses up lightly, Julius says.While feeling a little comforted by the glittering lens, Meer turns to Rafina.
“But what the hell is that supposed to mean?”
"As I said earlier."I found out that the silver ritual items that were stored in the warehouse were stolen. "
Julius frowned at the words.
"Hmm? Doesn't that mean that the children were determined to be the culprits?I thought the killer was a child in elementary school because I was called..... "
I asked Julius, confused, but I couldn't understand Rafina's expression.
"Exactly. I'm not sure it's the elementary school kids. but....."
Meer figured out what she wanted to say.
In any case, Meer is a “reputational damage leader” who is accustomed to not having anything to say.... well, in fact, in the case of Meer, there was nothing like that.
In any case, it doesn't matter whether or not you actually did this.Incidents like the one that never happened before occurred immediately after the start of the special elementary school.With that fact, it is possible to use it as a material for an attack.
"It's just a good scandal for those who don't like the children in the special elementary school..."
Then, all of a sudden, Meer opens her mouth.
"That stolen silver ritual item..."
Rafina put her hand on her cheek and smiled.
"Don't worry, it's not something that doesn't work."It's normal. But that's probably why they suspect me.If the rituals were of unique value, it might be that the children of some noble people wanted them, but... if they were ordinary things everywhere, there was no reason to want them. "
--Oh, I see. Someone who might be caught by the money in front of him and steal it...The children in elementary school are in a very suspicious situation!
Meer unexpectedly let out a sigh that something troubles her.
"That's not true... Those girls can't be the culprits."They are all honest children. "
Julius shouted with indignation.
"Isn't there anyone else who would do such a thing?"Those who aim for silverware aren't just for money, are they? "
"For non-monetary purposes......"
"For example, someone who doesn't like the special elementary school is trying to make those children suffer, or... yes."It was meant to attack the ritual itself. "
--Oh, yes. That's possible...A snake is involved in trying to interfere with the ritual...!If Patty was involved in this, it would be even more troublesome!
Meer, I'm unintentionally clumsy. In any case, that would mean stealing to disturb Rafina's ritual, which is a clear act of hostility against Rafina.
And it was me who brought such a patty... "It's meer!
--Oh, this is really bad...
Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, and t
Those who interfere with the ritual itself.
On the other hand, Rafina was depressed to think about something.
"Anyway, it looks like we need to think about measures to make sure the noise doesn't get as big as possible.""For the sake of Prince Zion's cooperation..."Julius, I'm sorry, but please take care of the children. "
Yes.
After deeply lowering his head, Julius raised his face and smiled a little...
"With all due respect... I'm relieved."I had already thought you would say that you would close the special elementary section.Then the children are pathetic. ”
"It wasn't decided they did it."That's impossible. Rest assured. "
Rafina, with a gentle smile, lowered her head again, and Julius left the room.
"Those who want to interfere with the ritual..."
Troubled, she snorted again, then Rafina turned to Meer.
I had to tell Miss Meer.
With that strong gaze, Meer was thrilled.
"Huh, uh...?" But what are you talking about? "
What if he suspects Patty?I didn't want to hear it, but it was a surprise word that came out of Rafina's mouth.
"About Barbara... she's still on this island"
"... hah?"
For a moment, it was Meer who tilted her neck, but then I remembered that Barbara, who had escaped, had attacked me on this island...
"Oh, I just thought it was returned to the original facility..."
"Actually, I haven't decided how to handle it yet."She is certainly a snake, quite dyed in her thoughts, but her past is not devoid of sympathy.That's why you can't keep it in a very harsh place..... "
"Ho, what...? Hmm?" So, what if Rafina says that Barbara is the one who stole it? ”
"Barbara must be someone who seems to interfere with the ritual..."
"I don't think so, according to what I've looked up.On the other hand, the timing of the disruption makes me want to suspect that the snake is involved. ”
The special elementary section is a gesture against the hotbed of the snake.An accurate harassment of it certainly doesn't look like the work of a snake.
"But the snakes... they're really troublesome."
Mia sighed unexpectedly, and Rafina lowered her voice slightly.
"By the way, Miss Meer, do you know what the three eyes mean?"
All of a sudden, I said something like that.
"Three eyes...? I wonder if it's about Yana-san's tattoo?"I only heard it was from the tribe of those children..... "
Meir leaned her neck, but Rafina's story continued and she frowned.
"That means' the eye that sees the truth '.It's a concept common to old evil religions. "
Having said that, Rafina pointed at her forehead with her fingertips,
"There is a shortage of 'people' that God made and rated as very good.Therefore, in order to make up for the shortage of God, man needs three eyes to see the truth.It's a manifestation of blasphemy against some kind of god. "
Do you think those girls' tattoos of Yana and Cyril have any meaning?
"I don't know? I still don't know what that means, but... at least that's what it used to mean."And they came from the port country of Ganudos. "
At that point, Rafina placed a bunch of parchment paper on her desk.
"Is that...?"
"It's halfway through the investigation." That's the basement temple that Meer found. "
"The underground temple...? Oh, that..."
An example of a temple I found on a summer vacation with Emeralda.An inscription showing the relationship between the evil of the first emperor and the serpent of chaos...I completely forgot, remembering the sight, Meer unexpectedly looked bitter.
Where was the deserted island where the underground temple was...?And who was the snake of chaos that the first emperor met?
"... no way"
Rafina nodded quietly.
“The report said something about the minority tribe of the ocean, the Vaisalians.It may be the roots of the Snake of Chaos, one of the candidates. ”
"So, Rafina-sama is trying to impose her sins on them simply because their ancestors were related to the snake of chaos..."
Meer... it's trembling.
After all, Meer is the descendant of the First Emperor... not only, not only! It is an unfortunate thing.
It was recently discovered that Patricia, her grandmother, had been educated by the snake of chaos.
If the distant ancestor may be the source of the snake of chaos, then that sister and brother are guilty!"If you are, you will not be spared the subject of judgment..."
Rafina looked surprised at me like that.
"No way, Mr. Meer." That's not what I'm talking about. "
Bun-bun, shake your head, then Rafina continues.
"I just thought." They may also be the victims of the Serpent of Chaos... and if they are... they must be protected.no matter what.... "
With a serious face, Rafina, determined not to protect her children, sighed with relief.
