"… What is a" dragon ”? I just wanted to tell you that it's a lie..."

So cut the words, look at me, and then shake your head,

"Not by the looks of it. I have to believe it. But I didn't know someone I'd known for a long time would be an undead... I never thought I'd be."

That's what I've known for a long time - a scholar, Lorraine Vivier - when I said that while looking at my whole picture, taking my robe off with a smudged eye.

She has long hair properly wrapped up in a wild robe, full of a carefree atmosphere throughout, but there are some strangely seductive things about her.

It's been a long time since I've been with her, since I came to Malt, so will it be ten years now?

Although we are getting close to being corrupt these days, her knowledge has always helped me, and as someone to talk to about this, I couldn't think of anyone else appropriate besides her.

In fact, whether she listened to me or looked at my current situation again, she was surprised but did not deny it from her head.

On the contrary, it's probably true, and he's been discussing it a lot.

"Me, I can't get any better, but... I can't, I can't..."

When I said that, Lorraine nodded,

"I guess that's... who thinks that if" dragons ”eat you, you can be undead, etc. But“ dragon ”... there's something like that in that labyrinth. Are you still here?

"Yes, I was... but when I met her, she wasn't there anymore... Kai, no, no, no, probably, right now, yes, yes, yes..."

If I were still there, it would be necessary to report it to the Adventurers' Union (Alliance) as soon as possible, but the signs were so powerful that they weren't there when I woke up.

It was like a dream or a summer, and it was completely gone.

How did that dragon show up and disappear again?

I don't know why, but assuming you're free to show up and disappear again, it would be useless to just be careful.

You may want to do a single investigation, but I also know you're just going to be treated like a liar when you report it with no evidence.

Show me who I am, and this is what happened to seeing the dragon, and maybe it will be some proof, but when you do that, I have to be prepared for my peril, and you can't answer me when you ask me why I would be undead if I met the dragon in the first place.

In other words, it is unlikely that it will even be a great basis in the end, and it does not seem like something we should do until we put ourselves at risk.

Therefore, we will have to leave it at the moment, I believe.

When I told Lorraine I said that, she nodded, too,

"I guess you're right. There is no such thing as a dragon being told that he has appeared and believes. I know I won't lie like that because I'm going to be with you for a long time... but from the rest of us. I know you want to believe me, but it won't be on the boulder, it will be a story. If you expose yourself to it in the first place, you're under crusade. Stop it, stop it."

Waving flirtatiously, Lorraine laughs.

Nevertheless, Lorraine's behavior is quite diagrammatically fat with me in front of her only undead, but the first thing about how she can stay like this is that Lorraine says she's diagrammatically fat in the first place or has a personality that doesn't care about the details.

And the other is big enough to say that it's because her main research subject is geared towards demons, witchcraft, etc.

It seems that humans have changed this way, that there is a deep interest in its causes and rationales, and that it is not necessarily just for me that you have been thinking about it a lot since earlier.

"But the more you look, the more undead you are, Lent. What can I ask you... are you like Lent before? It looks the same, something similar and non-existent, doesn't it?

It was difficult for me to answer this question.

Anyway, I don't get it.

I have the consciousness to say I'm Lent, but I'm probably dead once as an organism, too.

Anyway, at first, it was just bones.

Nonetheless, I have the same memory and consciousness as before.

I just want to say that my memory and consciousness are proof if they ask me if I am exactly the same as me now and before, but I also feel that if they tell me that that's what the undead is in the first place, but that it is something else.

So all I can say is I don't get it.

If you talk to Lorraine like that, she also has a convinced look,

"And the truth isn't likely to come from just thinking about it, is it? From what I can tell, that response definitely feels like Lent's, but because I have the same memory and personality, when people ask me if I can say it's the same thing... they talk about it that might be different. Um, I don't know. Let's put this issue aside for now. I'll think about it later. More than that, Lent. You, what are you gonna do now? Isn't that the most important thing right now?

When I don't know, I just move on to the conversation, and I'm an uncomfortable and easy opponent.

And what she says is exactly why I've been visiting her.

I say.

"Boo, as Kensha, do it, want to, ru... But Boo Kensha, Kumi, Ai, no, no..."

"It's something that's going to be crusaded...... then why don't I take the request instead and put the material away? Is that why you're here?

She and I have known each other long enough to understand what I'm trying to say.

But if it's so easily accepted, I'm a little sorry.

"... okay, you?

That's what I ask.

To this, Lorraine,

"It doesn't matter. It's not a big deal. But just so you know, you will no longer... so you, cooperate with my research."

"KANKIU, huh?

"What, it's a simple story. You know what I'm studying, don't you?

"Something, something, something, something, right?

"Exactly. Naturally, that includes the evolution of demons. As a matter of fact, there's not much research going on on on the evolution of demons, not just me. But Lent, with you, there's a lot to know."

"... in a basket, okay, but hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

"How can you say me to a boulder? None of you are such a mad scientist, are you? Well, you might say give me skin or meat."

……

I thought it wasn't Mad enough, but I stopped saying it.

Tell me you don't like it. Then I don't have to talk about it. I don't care if you say so.

But I didn't know the demonic existential evolution was so under-researched.

I'm not too familiar with it either, but I know a lot about it, and I thought it was something I knew a lot more about among experts.

With that said, Lorraine said,

"The truth is that with the help of the Obedient Demon Master (Monster Tamer), there are some things we know, even though they are limited. In the first place, however, the Monster Tamer is a special skill and a small number. Besides, the demons who followed them mostly somehow cease to evolve in existence. So to the extent that we can use our expertise to request the capture of the least scratchy demons we can. From there on, it's like that when it becomes a part of the scholars, and it's a lot harder inside."

They're more difficult to navigate than I thought.

I wonder if there's anything I can do in that situation, but Lorraine,

"The chance to get the help of the demon himself. First of all, it's possible. Besides, you've already evolved once. In other words, it is likely that we can continue to evolve in existence. If only you would report it to me when it happens. Well... the circumstances make it difficult to announce it somewhere, but it'll be a thread that makes sense, and it'll do you good for yourself."

"Me, of, for?

"That's right. I can think together about what evolution you can evolve from now on. You read quite a few of the books here, too. You'll know more about demons than any normal adventurer, but I'm having dinner with this. I think there's a lot of advice you can give me, huh?
