“If things go well like this, I will feel uncomfortable again.”

I think someone said that if things go too well, we should suspect them.

“Take it out.”

“Oh, yes.”

Hannah took out the box from the shovel by hand.

The box was tightly closed.

It was completely covered without any holes.

In front of it was something like a flat red stone.

“Do you know how to open this?”

“It’s a magic lock.”

“Wow.”

I wondered how expensive a magi safe would be.

If you use such an expensive thing to hide a single ledger, you won’t have enough money even if you’re embezzling money!

Hannah handed the box out to Cesar.

But Cesar did not accept it and looked down at the box.

“You don’t get it?”

“You know what this is.”

‘No way, do I have to open it, too?’”

“There, if you draw a secret pattern on the stone, it will open.”

“Oh, I see!”

Hannah smiled wildly when she found out the use of the stone embedded in it.

“What?”

When asked what the secret pattern was, Cesar wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Hannah.

“…you don’t know.”

I don’t know either.

Hannah said in a crawling voice.

“Do you know anything? Like the Head Priest’s birthday or something he uses often.”

“How do I know that?”

I don’t even know this body’s birthday.

“Ah!”

Then something crossed Hannah’s mind.

“No way ·········.”

Then, I remembered the figures I found behind the frame.

“Do you remember anything?”

“Zero·······.”

Hannah tried to recall the numbers she saw that day. Why is it that only a few numbers didn’t come to mind all of a sudden?

“2 is certain, was it 5 or 6? The last one was 8.”

“528.”

“Hmm? How do you know?”

“The anniversary of the grace of the goddess Jesmo,”

Hannah frowned at Cesar’s explanation.

“What a date to use to embezzling subject. It’s a total blasphemy,”

Cesar nodded sympathetically.

“How was the number drawn?”

“In a round circle, it was overlapped.”

“Draw it as it is.”

Cesar beckoned her to the safe, asking her to open it quickly.

“Well, my hands are dirty.”

Hannah was a little scared by the magic item she had never used before.

But Cesar laughed at her with his mouth stretched widely.

I mean, don’t play tricks on me. Hannah also recognized his intentions at once.

‘But it doesn’t matter,’ eventually, Hannah put her finger on the red stone.

Light fluttered inside the stone when her hand touched it.

“Mom!”

Surprised Hannah dropped the box, and Cesar quickly stepped aside when he saw the box falling on his foot.

“…you’re sharper than you look.”

Cesar pointed at the box without a word again, and Hannah squatted and put her finger back on the stone.

“5·······. 2.··········8.”

After all that, Hannah drew the numbers exactly as she how saw the pattern.

Then light came out of the red stone.

The box split in half with a rattle and a sound as I frowned.

“I’ll open it.”

I should’ve opened it myself.

I could’ve done at least one gold.

There was a sigh of regret.

“Why don’t you get one?”

Cesar said as if he had read Hannah’s mind.

“That······.”

Shall I?

I tried to say thank you, but I desperately endured it.

That’s a test for yourself!

“You can’t do that. It’s all temple money.”

“Yeah?”

Cesar bent over, shrugging his shoulders half-heartedly.

And picked up a gold bar.

“What are you doing?”

And Hannah grabbed his hand.

“What are you doing?”

“No! Are you taking out the gold bars?!”

“········”

In her jersey, Cesar moved the gold bar to the side and picked up the books under the gold bar.

“Hmm-hmm.” Hannah awkwardly let go of his wrist. I’m sure he was trying to get a gold bar.

“I’m afraid there’s a dangerous spell on it. Hmm.”

“Thank you.”

“The ledger is correct”

Cesar’s eyes quickly scanned the book.

“What do you think? Did you see a lot?”

Meanwhile, Hannah was curious about it.

How much did he make?

Did he steal a lot?

What punishment would that level of embezzlement be?

My body was shaking with curiosity.

“Why do you ask?”

The eyes of Cesar, who had been playing the books, passed on to Hannah.

Cesar remembered the terms of the deal Hannah was talking about.

“Oh.”

I forgot for a moment and was glad that I found the account.

“Please try to save our nursery school.”

“To do that, the temple should not disappear.”

“Can’t you change the priest to a proper person instead?”

Then at least the nursery school doesn’t have to disappear.

“Is it because of your job?”

“What?”

“If you get mixed up in this, you may have to quit.”

“Ah..”

“However,······.”

What if Hannah, who was the owner of this body, did something bad in accordance with the will of the head priest?

No, it couldn’t have been.

There was no indisputable memory anywhere in my memory.

“I can’t help it. But I hope the nursery school will remain. As long as you find a good teacher and let the children grow up well ·······. I think it’ll be okay.”

I felt a little sad when I imagined getting fired and seeing the children happily staying with other teachers.

However, in a way, there was a sense that it might be better for professional people to come to this world than to be ignorant of children’s education.

Hannah broke the silence of the moment and spoke with determined eyes.

“It’s okay.”

It should be okay.

For the future of the children.

Hannah stayed in Cesar’s clear blue eyes for quite a long time.

“I see.”

The very late reply was still dull.
