Lord of the Silver Crow

Yago was also a little stunned.

Can you do it just by thinking about it?

He turned his gaze, as he did just now, concentrated, trying to think about what to do in this vast ruined temple.

However, nothing was done, only the bird's beak mask reacted to his concentration.

He can't control this place.

He can control, probably only... the door?

Yago remembered the sentence inside the mask.

"Three Guards · Gatekeeper"

This mask represents the guard, the gatekeeper.

And, three, that is to say, there are three "guard" identities?

Are the three janitors? Or does it mean that the guards have different identities, and one of them is called the gatekeeper?

He looked up again at the huge bell tower.

"Could it be that there is a Quasimodo in the clock tower?"

Muttering in his heart, Yago floated back around the statues.

Just now that person said it was an invitation, that is, did the other party get the invitation?

What does invitation mean? Is there clear guidance and guidance or even text messages?

Judging from these statues and the monocle on the opponent's face, it is probably a mask, no, face decoration.

The same props as the face decorations on these statues can enter this ruined temple.

Sweeping around, this huge temple surrounded by darkness was extremely deserted.

Only these statues gathered in the center of the ruins as if they were holding an extravagant banquet or a dress ball.

If the buildings and sculptures are still intact, it fits this feeling, but now...

When everything collapses, in this shattered palace...

There is a weird and gloomy feeling.

He looked towards the ground of the statue that had just been shattered, imitating the fragments of the statue that had swept away his position just now, and let the black lines extending from the beak mask condense into huge feathers like wings, sweeping away the fragments.

Sure enough, there is also a symbol here.

The outside is made up of a circle made up of interlaced black and white lines, similar to gears, and inside is... a hammer? No, this is not a hammer. The handle of the hammer will not be the same as the hammer body, and it doesn't look long.

In the center of the gear, there are two cross-patterns that are nearly rectangular, one black and one white...Chariot?

Yago finally remembered what this pattern was, the "chariot" chess piece in chess.

The chess piece symbols of the two chariots are staggered into an "X" shape inside the gear.

Corresponds to the "chariot" of the Tarot card?

No, the "chariot" in chess is a chariot in the Chinese translation. It is because the straight track is the same as the car in chess. The translation is affected by this, but in fact it should be called "fortress" and " castle".

So it's... the tower?

Yago's thoughts turned to another card in the tarot.

Then, he tried to move other statues, trying to read all the symbol patterns under the statues, but he couldn't move them.

No matter how hard he tried, the black line extending from the beak mask couldn't move the statue a bit, and he couldn't do it by himself.

Is it that only the person with the mask enters, and the statue can be seen after it is broken?

Went around in a circle and swept away all the debris and obstructions near the statue.

After that, he determined that there are 21 statues, including those two symbols.

He pondered, he didn't know if he was preconceived, and forcibly associated these with the tarot cards.

Maybe not corresponding to Tarot cards?

Maybe these symbols are not Tarot symbols? The difference between 21 and 22 is also quite subtle.

Let me hold your reservations first.

After writing down the appearance of all the statues, especially the masks of the statues, Yago went around in this ruined temple. There was nothing here except the collapsed ruins, bell towers, and statues.

As for the darkness that surrounds the temple?

He dared not touch.

It's so dark, who knows what's inside.

Now, there is only one last question left.

"How do I get out? It's still the door of the clock tower, right?"

There may be in the darkness around the ruins, but he won't go. Apart from that, no other exit was found except the gate of the bell tower.

"From the door of the clock tower, you can directly return to the story world of "Song of Crow"..."

Just as he realized this idea, the door opened in his ear, and at the same time, there was a flower in front of his eyes.

In the sound of closing doors, Yago found that what appeared before his eyes was a trapezoidal square...

But it is not a ruined temple.

It was the square in front of the bell tower when he entered the ruined temple from the world of "Song of Crows"!

Turning his head, the angle of view lifted.

What appeared in Yago's vision was the decayed and dilapidated bell tower.

Just came out like this?

Yago was a little surprised.

Why is there such a situation? Is it related to the opening of the door? Is it the cause of the mask?

He recalled the sound of opening and closing the door just now.

After thinking for a while, he tried--

"Return to the real world..."

He contemplated the House of Steward in his mind.

However, there was no response.

that......

"Enter the ruined temple..."

The object of his visualization was replaced by the ruined temple, replaced by the bell tower and statues surrounded by darkness.

Still no response.

"You can only exit at will, not enter at will? Only through the door of the clock tower..."

At this moment, the field of vision in front of him flashed again, and the sound of the door opening came into his ears again.

When the door closed, he was once again in the ruined temple.

"...Get out."

Yago's unfinished self-talk continued to sound.

Related to the door.

The repeated sound of opening and closing the door, and the sudden change when it came to the door, made him confirm this.

Well.

"Return to the door of Fast House."

With the mentality of trying, Yago visualized the door of his room in his mind.

Woo-

The moment the sound of the wooden door opened, the surrounding air instantly became thick and heavy, and there was a fine whisper around the ears.

Crazy, sharp babble lingered in my ears.

However, unlike the past, he felt that there was an invisible cover covering his body, so that it could plunge him into chaos and pain.

The murmurs, which were difficult to calm in the past, came into his ears, as if they were separated by a layer of things.

But Yago, who could not even think about it, suddenly realized that he was still sane.

When he wanted to think deeply, the scenery in front of him had changed dramatically.

Silver-gray, yellowish curtains, mirrors fixed to the wall, silver-gray sheets and pillows.

The master seemed sickly obsessed with the silver scenery, and it was undoubtedly his home, the Fast mansion, and his room.

Himself, returned to the real world directly from the ruined temple?

Yago's gaze shifted downward, and he still maintained the posture he used to wear the mask, without hands or feet, and his whole person looked like he was floating on the ground.

Stretching out his invisible hand, Yago took off his mask.

At the moment when the mask was taken off, the robe woven with black threads instantly dispersed into black threads and retracted into the beak mask.
