[Tiarozety’s POV]
Sponsored Content
When I woke up, I saw Alois looking at me anxiously.
Alois said with a perplexed face.
“I’m sorry, I couldn’t get a glimpse of your dream because the book noticed the spell I cast.”
“……”
“Miss Tiarozety?”
When I didn’t answer in a daze, Alois pushed her face in and called out.
Only then did I come to my senses and stared at Alois.
And I murmured quietly.
“I met Sullivan.”
“!!”
Alois’ eyes widened.
“You met Sullivan? Did she look normal?”
“It’s… she escaped Kun’s rule with the help of Alois.”
“Then she’s been dominated by Kun?”
“Yes.”
“But what do you mean, I’ve never helped.”
Alois tilted her head with a puzzled face.
“Sulivan’s consciousness came to her senses when Alois used the spell to see the body of the book.”
“Ah.”
“And it wasn’t my book that Sullivan was in.”
“Then it was the Duke’s book?”
I nodded at Alois’ question and continued.
“You said earlier that my book had a whiter, more faded feel before.”
“Ah, yes.”
Alois replied bewilderedly and made a foolish expression.
She seemed to have no idea why I was bringing it up all of a sudden.
“I’ve seen the Duke’s book before. It was only once, but the book was definitely faded to white.”
“… … !”
“I wish I had thought of it when Alois said it earlier.….”
I paused for a moment, stared at Alois, and continued.
“I’m sorry, I forgot that important thing… .”
“It’s okay. I didn’t think it was important information either. By the way, why did the Duke’s book fade to white?”

“Actually, the Duke repeated his return for a long time due to the tyranny of the book. In the meantime, the book had faded.”
“… … I see. I didn’t think of that. Besides, Sullivan was being manipulated. We almost did something good for Kun, both of us.”
TL/N: I’m not too sure what the good is referring to too

Alois then shook her head with an understanding face.
After a while, she asked.
“Come to think of it, Miss Tiarozety also said she had returned.”
“Yes.”
“Then did you know that I had a younger brother?”
At Alua’s question, I silently nodded.
It was because there was nothing to hide now.
“In the past, we went together to subdue evil dragons like this. At the time, Lexion was the commander.”
I felt strange when I recalled the past.
The given conditions are similar, but the circumstances are completely different.
“I see.”
“The situation was worse then than it is now. Except for the capital, it was almost wiped out.”
“I think it’s not very optimistic even now, but it was even worse.”
Alois frowned and looked as if she didn’t want to imagine it.
After a while, she said with a smile.
“By the way, we must have been pretty close. To the point where I talked about my younger brother.”
“Because we’ve been through several death crises together. I relied on you a lot.”
“Really? I don’t think I was someone anyone could rely on.”
“Is that someone me?”
Alois shrugged and at the same time, I laughed bashfully.
Maybe it’s because she’s shy.
We started off with a bad relationship in this life, but I still liked Alois.
Even if the relationship has been torn down by regression, it can be rebuilt.
Because the Alois in front of me is still the Alois Beth I know.
It was all thanks to Lexion that this trust was born.
Because he didn’t give up on me and came to see me, I was no longer separated from this world.
Just like Lexion did to me, I will not hesitate to approach my precious person.
In order to do that, there was a problem that had to be resolved first.

I opened my mouth with a serious expression.
“Rather than that, I found the location of the book.”
“Where is it?”
Alois followed suit and asked quietly, hardening her expression.
I took a moment to catch my breath and said softly.
“The tomb of Agnes buried in the Karaha Desert.”
“!!”
Alois’ mouth opened when she heard that it was Agnes’ grave.
Indeed, she said the body couldn’t be found, but she seemed surprised that the tomb was here.
Agnes’ body was buried in the Karaha Desert.
That means Arden dumped Agnes’ body in the wasteland.
‘Eventually, he couldn’t tell Esol the location of the body. It’s already buried in the sand, and there’s no trace.’
‘However, as a result, the real evil dragon appeared and was in trouble.’
With the corpse as a catalyst, the evil dragon continued to resurrect.
“But how do you find the location of the remains in the vast desert?”
“I got this.”
I opened my clutched hand.
There was a very small compass.
It was given to me by Sullivan to help me find my way through the desert.

“There’s a spell prepared.”
“There will be a book where it guides me. And she asked me to give this to Alois.”
I then carefully presented the drawing of the spell to Alois.
I folded it tightly in case the book saw it.
She asked as she received it.
“This…?”
“It would be difficult to accomplish the task with Alois’ spell alone. She told me to use them together.”
“Ah…”
“You have only one chance. So please do your best.”
Alois’ eyes shone sharply on my request.
She asked with a worried face.
“What are you going to do if you fail?”
Sponsored Content
I looked at Alois without speaking.
Failing means not being able to save Lexion.
And this way was the last way that could only be done once.
Even if I wanted to start over, a second time was absolutely impossible.
“Don’t think about anything.”
Alois added as if she had an ominous feeling.
“Then I’ll leave for where I belong.”
“… … Do you mean going back to the original world?”
I did not answer Alois’ question.
It’s just a shrug of the shoulders.
So the end was approaching.

[Gregory’s POV]
Meanwhile, Gregory stood in front of the tent with a stiff face.
Inside, Tiarozety and Alois were in the middle of a conversation.
Gregory’s face was full of doubts about what the two were sharing.
Inside, incomprehensible stories such as books and Agnes were exchanged.
TL/N: Da heck Alois didn’t put some privacy spell on their convo? LOL
However, these words were not unfamiliar to Gregory.
‘Is it about the book again?’
He had overheard Tiarozety talking about books with Lexion before.
At that time, I thought they were just sharing the story of a novel I had read.
But now, when I put it all together, it seemed to be talking about themselves.
Of course, it could have been overkill.
However, considering that there was already a strange bond between Lexion and Tiarozety from the south, the only conclusion was that the two had known each other for a long time.
‘What on earth is there between Tiarozety and Lexion that I don’t know?’
In fact, before the Esol disaster, Gregory felt something different when he reunited with Lexion after a long time.
From his promise to go to the south to how he ran like a madman when Kronos kidnapped Tiarozety.
At that time, I just let go of that feeling of alienation, thinking that it was nothing special if the great Lexion fell madly in love, but now it’s starting to look a little different.
‘What if she told her story by comparing it to a book?’
As the thought reached that point, I heard Tiarozety’s voice from inside.

“Then I’ll leave for where I belong.”
“… … Do you mean going back to the original world?”
Tiarozety did not answer Alois’s question.
“!!”
At that moment. Gregory felt something that made his heart sink.
‘Original world? Where the hell?’
I was standing still in confusion, and after a while, Alois came out.
Alois’ eyes widen when she spotted Gregory.
She looked suspicious that he had overheard the conversation between the two.
“Prince? When did you get here?”
“Oh, I’ve just came.”
When Gregory lied without realizing it, Alois replied with a relieved face.
“You worked hard late at night.”
“Yes.”
“Then bye.”
Gregory looked at Alois, who was moving away with strange eyes.
Then Tiarozety came out and greeted Gregory.
“Are you here?”
Gregory nodded slowly, staring at Tiarozety.
For some reason, her eyes looked red.
‘Did you cry?’
I was about to ask if she cried without realizing it, but I stopped.
It was because I thought it was a presumptuous question.
Gregory stared at the book Tiarozety cherished.
It was a Bible that she kept in her bag at some point and opened it often.
Seeing that even in the midst of this urgency, she had taken care of only that, it seemed that the ‘book’ was that.
Gregory asked with the intention of taking a peek.
“Is that book a memento of your parents?”
“Ah, it’s just my favorite book.”
Tiarozety hid it behind her back as if she was uncomfortable with the attention she received for her book.
Soon she bowed and followed Alois.
Gregory stared at Tiarozety, who was moving away, at the book in her hand for a while.
