Huh?

The hard, cold, and erotic feeling from my fingertips made me recover from this sympathy and let out a soft sigh.

My eyes fell on the place where my fingers touched, which was the center of my forehead. In order to see it more clearly, I pushed the curtain-like bangs further apart. Suddenly, there was a hair on my forehead that was slightly raised due to my thinness.

The crystal, which was firmly embedded in a neat rhombus shape, made Jeluka and I fall into a state of sluggishness.

"no, do not want!!"

The little girl who was awakened from her daze because of the push away action just now screamed as if she had a nightmare. She pushed the hand on her forehead away with all her strength, and continued to retreat with her hands and feet until she retreated to the stone wall.

, with no way to retreat, he clung to it, his whole body trembling.

Obviously...it's such a warm hand...but...as expected...are you really here for the crystal on your forehead?

For a moment, the little girl seemed to recall something, her eyes filled with an intensity that would scare even an adventurer, the pain, despair and fierceness of being forced to the edge of a cliff.

"Sorry, are you okay?"

Both Jeluka and I were stunned by the diamond-shaped crystal fragment and didn't notice the little girl's gaze. When we came back to our senses, we found that the other party had grabbed a small stone in each hand. I guess as long as I stepped forward,

One step away and you'll be stoned.

"..."

It seemed that I was even more wary, it was even worse than when we first met. Seeing the little girl’s resistance reaction, I had no choice but to smile bitterly.

However, one thing is finally certain.

Seeing that the little girl's vigilance towards the two of us has reached an unprecedented height, she would probably throw it away without hesitation if we brought another broth. Jeluka and I looked at each other and chose to retreat temporarily.

"Trouble."

Back at the hotel, Jeluka and I sat across the table, holding our heads and worrying for a long time.

From the information obtained from the Mages Guild, we can completely judge that the little girl was not transformed into a monster, so why did she become like this? The crystal fragment has been completely embedded in her forehead, and it feels like she has been trained

This is the first time I have encountered this situation.

A new burst mode of crystal fragments? Improbable. The recovery mission is almost over now. If there is a third burst mode, it should have appeared and been discovered long ago.

Crystal fragments are actually embedded in a human body. How can people accept such a ridiculous thing so easily?

After thinking for a long time, I finally determined that this is not a problem that can be solved by meditating here alone. For the current plan, I still have to ask Old Man Farah for help. As for the Mages Guild here at the Demon Fortress, I don’t want them to do it again.

What kind of research was done using that child as a guinea pig?

A moment later, a secret letter was sent out, and all we could do was wait.

Then, the next day, old man Farah came over angrily.

It's so efficient, I couldn't help but sigh.

"Listen, kid, do you know what I am studying? If successful, it will be a great magic that can change people's lives."

Old Man Farah raised his palms high in the air, assuming the posture of a demon sect, and then he called the waiter unceremoniously and ordered the most expensive menu items one by one from top to bottom.

"In other words, what kind of experiment?"

I was secretly wondering if I should imitate Mu Aodonggua and become a urine escaper, so I asked.

"A very great experiment."

Taking a deep sip of the concentrated juice, which was squeezed from the most expensive fruit and had never been diluted in the slightest, Old Man Farah narrowed his eyes and lost some of his anger. Then he flicked the black mage robe, as if he was standing on the edge of the world.

As if he were on stage, he announced with great pride.

"A magic potion that can regenerate beard!!"

"Boom——!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit in the forehead by the empty cup I threw angrily and fell to the ground.

"The number of beards determines a person's life - I think Old Man Farah, who holds this view, has reached the level of boredom that rivals the hairy leg fairy Gallon."

"Let's get down to business, you kid didn't lie to me, did you? Did you really encounter something like that?"

Old Farah's face straightened. If he hadn't been devouring the food brought by the waiter at the same time, others might have thought that he had become serious.

"If that's not the case, do you think you have any value for me to treat you to this meal?" I said with a sarcastic look on my face.

"Don't say that, after all, I am half Sarah's teacher." The old man, who was known as the stingiest Rogge, let out a shameless laugh.

If you just give me a few books and you become a teacher, then wouldn't Morissa become my master? Arius, who keeps stuffing me with books, doesn't know how many times he has to count them up.

"In short, no matter what method you use, you must first bring the girl to me."
