The Woman Found the Will I Wrote

42 – Kyaaak

“Kyaaak. “Nyaooong!”

“… Bruise! Woof woof!”

Would you believe me if I told you this was a battle between cats and humans?

I touched my forehead while looking at Rumi who was yapping at the cat.

I never dreamed that he would fight like that with a cat, not even a person.

‘Although I have made frequent mistakes, I don’t think I have done anything this foolish.’

I was sighing and wondering why this had happened.

Rumi spoke to me with a very proud expression.

“Hey, I won!”

Cat … To be precise, Rumi, who won the battle against the seed of negativity, looks at me with great joy.

I am so embarrassed by Rumi that I am pretending not to notice.

Rumi speaks to me with a somewhat triumphant expression.

“With this, I can now be here with confidence. “Now then, you idiot cat, please go to the temple.”

“Kyaaa!”

“Well, because I won. Mr. Cat, please go!”

As I was listening to that conversation, a curious thing crossed my mind.

Obviously, the way the seeds of negativity spoke before was in the way of ‘resonating in the head.’

If you look at what you are saying now, it seems like you are actually speaking out loud.

‘On top of that, up until now he was just talking to people, but now he’s just crying.’

I wonder if the seeds of negativity are adopting that method because of Rumi.

I spoke briefly to Rumi to conduct an experiment.

“I have work to do, so please wait in the room for a while.”

“… Yes?”

It’s been a while since I entered the lab, but I didn’t know if they would send me back right away, so they looked at me with an expression full of embarrassment.

I tried to ignore Rumi’s gaze and calmly pointed to the door.

She lowered her head with a very sullen expression and went out in a droopy state, like a puppy getting hit in the rain.

The moment she confirmed that Rumi was completely gone, she turned her gaze towards the seed of her denial again.

[I finally went… !]

Like before, I can see the seeds of denial being excited, speaking in a way that resonates in my head.

I don’t know why, but I figured out that she has a nature to hide her identity when Rumi is around.

I began to speculate that this might be related to the ‘reason why the Heavenly God Church is harassing Rumi.’

‘Seeds of evil… Rumi.’

First of all, we will only be able to know the details once we have more information.

I spoke rather coldly without making any facial expressions so as not to let anyone know that I had obtained this information.

“It’s noisy. “Please keep quiet.”

[…] … ]

Luckily, he seems to have some sense, and quickly closes his mouth.

Seeing the seeds of such negativity, I slowly looked away and opened the grimoire.

After about an hour had passed.

As I promised Rumi, I went to her room.

‘… It would be correct to call it a guest room.’

It was planned to remain Rumi’s room forever until she said she didn’t like it and left, so it would be correct to call it Rumi’s room from now on.

With those thoughts in mind, I slowly knock on the door.

I heard the sound of something running in a hurry, and Rumi gently opened the door and spoke to me.

From noble mtl dot com

“… “Did you have a good time playing with the cat?”

It seems that he mistakenly thought that the reason he was sent after him was to play with the seeds of negativity.

I was thinking about saying no.

I thought it was stupid to say something like this, so I didn’t reply and brought up another topic.

“Is there anything uncomfortable?”

“…… “

When I spoke openly, he made a pouty expression but answered slowly.

“Yes. “Everyone is so kind to me, so I’m having a very comfortable time.”

“Thank goodness. “Then let’s go.”

When she said she was going right away, Rumi was startled and grabbed the hem of my clothes.

She then starts to fidget, looks around, and speaks in a low, crawling voice.

“That… “Yeah.”

“Is there something you want to say?”

Rumi closed her eyes tightly and remained silent as if nothing else came to mind.

She speaks to me as if she is squeezing it out.

“Okay, thank you.”

Thank you… The moment I heard those words, I couldn’t help but pause as I remembered her first meeting with Rumi.

No matter how good I am to her, to her, I will only be her villain.

The fact that he even opened his heart and approached me like that was a testament to how hungry he was for people.

When that thought crossed my mind, I unconsciously stroked Rumi’s head.

Rather than expressing affection, I stroked him as a sign that he had endured well so far.

Rumi looked up at me with a blank expression, but then she started laughing brightly.

‘This isn’t like Dern, so it’s not good.’

I continued stroking her head, compromising that it would be okay just this once.

Research on ancient magic continued to progress.

Among these, what I was focusing on was ‘penetrating magic.’

Remembering that my magic could not reach the deep underground, I was conducting research in various ways to solve this problem.

‘So far, only the weak ones have appeared, so it’s okay.’

This tactic won’t work when dealing with high-ranking wizards or knights later.

If possible, it would be important to learn things like magic penetration to exploit the opponent’s loopholes.

So, as I was accelerating my research and designing it one by one, the magic I saw in the underground waterway suddenly flashed through my mind.

‘A magic that allows you to control the dolls as you wish.’

It was a difficult magic to use because it was quite difficult and had many conditions to obtain a body to fit into the doll.

A thought crossed my mind that if I applied this to an ‘object’ other than a corpse, it would be a pretty good magic.

The moment such a thought crossed my mind, I stopped my penetrative study for a moment and looked at the negative energy nearby.

If my thoughts were correct, it seemed like this negative energy could be used as a material for ‘doll magic.’

‘If that happens, something pretty amazing will come out.’

The energy of negativity is a crystal created by extracting only ‘negativity’, the most powerful emotion that can be extracted from humans.

If you were to create a doll using such crystals, it is hard to imagine how powerful it would be.

I looked at this for a while with that thought in mind and decided to include this in my research as well.

[…] … ?]

The negative energy looked at me with an expression of anxiety, as if it had read my thoughts.

I looked away, pretending not to know anything, and decided to complete the penetration spell first.

I slowly connected thousands of techniques into one and began to add ‘Magic Penetration’ to the origin explosion.

* * * * *

About a week has passed since that day.

I am applying the completed magic penetration technique to other techniques and continuing research until I can use it properly.

Someone is knocking on my lab door and talking.

“Master Dern. “A guest has arrived.”

Guest?

I thought Deli Ana Shien had come to visit, so she said, ‘I’ll be right away,’ and immediately went outside.

I see an unexpected person waiting for me.

“It’s been a long time.”

Espin, who is wearing black gloves on her pure white hands, waves her hands at me and smiles.

I was surprised that she came to her house in person, so I approached her without saying a word.

Espin took a step towards me and spoke.

“I’m here to share information.”

Hearing those words, I nodded after checking the people around me.

Since the identities of all employees of the Lercier family are clear, there is no need to worry about information being spread.

Still, since there was an assumption that she was the only one, I decided to take her to her parlor.

Why did you take me to the parlor like that?

Espin sits down on the sofa and talks to me.

“To put it in perspective, the results were somewhat cut and in disarray.”

The result was somewhat expected, so she nodded without much emotion.

Espin sighs and continues her story to me.

“I don’t know how it got so messy right away because there was a guy with so much power behind him… Still, whatever. “I succeeded in achieving the small goal I initially set out to achieve, so it won’t be that big of a problem.”

The reason Espin did this in the first place was to get her ‘recognition of her abilities,’ so it must have been a very satisfying result for her.

‘And me too. ‘It wasn’t really a bad thing since we succeeded in making the identity of the Heavenly God Church known.’

Even if you are ‘just aware of’ the original problem, it causes great concern.

Even if no one has an issue with this right now.

As time passes, the number of people raising issues will increase, so one day we will be able to increase the number of people who can be called allies.

I have that thought and don’t think it’s a bad thing.

Espin got up from her sofa and straightened her posture, then she looked at me and spoke.

“I’m just saying this. “Are you interested in something like inspector general?”

“No.”

“I guess that’s right, I feel bad about the youngest master of the Lercier family, so I’m going to do something like an inspector.”

I was nodding my head and looking at Espin with an expressionless expression.

Suddenly, the sound of a conch shell and meowing can be heard outside the door.

I was denying reality, thinking that it couldn’t possibly be true, but suddenly the door to the living room opened and Rumi and the negative energy came out of nowhere.

“…… “

In a situation where it is obvious to anyone that the sound was made by Rumi.

Espin took a bite of the cookie placed in front of her without saying a word.

She smiles awkwardly and talks to me.

“The dog I am raising… cute. “After all, a dog trainer.”

“…… “

I couldn’t refute those words and closed my eyes tightly.
