Chapter 207 – 207. One month
“hmm.”
When I went outside and got some fresh air from the lab, I started to feel like I had truly escaped.
True to its name, Dream Demon Hall, coming out felt like I had just had a long, painful dream.
First, I went out of the lab and tried to find someone.
When I saw the sun shining brightly outside the window, I thought it might be lunch time.
‘The weather has become warmer than I expected.’
It was late January when I entered Mongmajeon. It was still the time when the spring cold was rampant, but it is not as cold now as it was back then.
‘no way.’
The moment I tried to go outside, ignoring the rising anxiety.
Sigh.
“So, I first made an inquiry to Claren City Hall. “You never know.”
“good job. “For now, I am untangling the connections I know.”
The lab door opens and a pianist boy, Owen, and a bushy pink-haired woman, Per Petra, come inside.
Even though only five days had passed, the joyful feelings toward the two people rose up from within my heart.
“A long time.”
Let’s say hello to these two people.
“uh?”
“uh?”
Both showed exactly the same reaction. Professor Per Petra dropped the bag of bread he was holding in his hand, probably trying to eat it as a substitute for lunch.
Above that, the music book that Owen always carries around is disorganized.
and.
“Memorial person!”
“Professor Deius!”
The two people just launched themselves at me.
If I hadn’t strengthened my thighs and soles with mana before the two lunged, I would have passed over.
I frowned as I looked down at the two people hugging me tightly from both sides.
“What are you doing?”
Looking at the reaction, I know that longer than five days have passed.
I was grateful that he was happy to see me, but I didn’t really like touching skin like this.
“and! You are a real memorial service! “That scary look!”
“Scary tone! A bone-chilling voice! You are the real Professor Deius! Wow! “You’re back!”
However, even though they saw my displeased reaction, they actually jumped around and enjoyed it even more.
It seemed like the two would need some time to calm down.

“one month.”
If it’s short, it’s short, but if it’s long, it’s a long time. While I was at Mongmajeon, the end of January had already become the end of February, and the cold was slowly disappearing.
‘I don’t like it until the end.’
It was a moment when my feelings toward the demon named Learic deepened once again.
In a dream, no matter how long the time is, in the end it is just a moment.
I thought that the five days I spent had passed by without any help.
“Well, that’s why everyone went crazy looking for the memorial service.”
“that’s right. Professor Erica also returned to her hometown.”
“… … .”
I sigh deeply.
The good news is that the academy is still on winter break.
But at the same time, a person who seemed like he would make a pretty extreme choice immediately came to mind.
“What about Finden Eye?”
I was worried that she might be doing something now that I was gone.
Not Findenai, but the innocent people who are being swayed by her.
The two people who had answered quickly just now were unable to come up with an answer this time.
Is there something wrong?
Did something really happen to Findeneye?
Anxiety begins to creep up in my chest.
It was Professor Per who finally opened his mouth under my urging gaze.
“Yes, Professor. “I think it would be good if you could listen calmly.”
“Master, you are always calm, aren’t you?”
Owen added a quick word from the side. Professor Per scratches the back of his head, saying that’s definitely true, and then takes a deep breath to calm himself down.
“Whew, that’s right. “A great deal happened during the month that Professor Deius disappeared.”
As far as the game goes, I believe there is no major threat this vacation. However, it was a continent that was already on a completely different route from the game.
I wondered if Dante had made a move after knowing that I was away.
What Professor Per said was a very unexpected story.
“A person has appeared who claims to be a real memorial service.”
“A real memorial service?”
This time, I also needed to pause a bit and think over my words. So, it meant that someone else was referring to the memorial service.
“Professor Deius is using black magic to show false illusions to comfort the soul… … .”
As I swallow, I glance at myself.
It’s okay, so hurry up and say it, and Per keeps talking.

“He claims that he truly heals souls and guides them to the gods.”
“This is ridiculous.”
All that remains for the dead is rest or extinction. There is only one of the two.
Heaven, hell, or six paths of reincarnation.
There is nothing like this.
Even if I didn’t know about it in the previous world, I could at least say with certainty that it didn’t exist on this continent.
But you say it leads souls to God?
“You’re a fraud.”
It was a bit interesting at first, but I thought it was ridiculously half-baked. People like that usually trip over their own feet and fall.
However, looking at the expressions on Per and Owen’s faces, it was clear that it was not a matter to be taken lightly.
“In fact, among the kingdom’s citizens, there continues to be talk of appointing him as the new memorial envoy.”
“We are even holding protests. “When you go into the city, there are banners hanging up.”
“… … .”
Let’s get rid of me, who was personally selected by King Orpheus, and appoint someone else as a memorial service?
It could have been seen as an act that directly challenged the king’s authority.
“It’s because I don’t have one.”
The answer comes out with a sigh.
In the end, they were probably able to move around so actively because I wasn’t there.
“If you have anything to criticize and slander the professor, come forward… … “That’s how it was said.”
But since I wasn’t there, they would naturally have run away.
“Ta, bad timing! “That was unlucky!”
Owen said with a fuss. Can she really just dismiss this as bad luck?
Because I know I’m not there.
To be precise, the question arose in my head that he might have done something radical like this because he knew I was in the demon battle.
At the same time, a man’s name comes to mind.
“Is the name of the man who refers to himself as a memorial service member Mule?”
He lives in room 109 and is the one who brought in Romuleus, who ate the nightmare.
A man committed suicide by telling me to meet him outside.
They are both surprised by my question and nod their heads loudly.
“yes! yes that’s right!”
“Huh, how did you know?!”
“Whoa.”
I really want to ask.
The mule in this night’s battle was fake. But he acted like he knew he was fake.
I don’t know what trick they used.
I felt like I was standing in opposition to a very annoying being.
“Even the religious community is taking their side. From the beginning, the professor… … “It made me uncomfortable, because the fake side nominally acts in the name of God.”
In the religious world, it’s right, so it must have helped Mule.
“Well, at least the saint is stopping me, saying it’s a hasty decision!”
“Lucia… … .”
I had some thoughts, but anyway. First of all, it was necessary to return to the original topic.
I was asking where Findeneye had disappeared to.
The answer came out naturally.
“… … no way.”
As I clenched my fists and looked at the two people, Professor Per avoided eye contact and spoke quickly.
“Ta, the timing is great. This, this city, these damn bastards must have done something to the owner… … “He walked away screaming like that.”
“Whoa.”
Professor Per was shaking as if he was not used to saying harsh words.
But Owen also added that it didn’t end there.
“The Verdi family in North Sweden is also moving together. Everyone was so angry… … .”
“Darius and Deia.”
My heart understands.
Although I am grateful.
“I’m dizzy.”
Dizzy was dizzy.
“Oh, just! membrane! Just before splitting the head! “You’re swinging an ax, saying you’ll find out even if you don’t know!”
Professor Per pretends to hold an ax with both hands and swings it back and forth, as if it reminds him of Finden Eye, who once caused a mess in the lab.
“Yes, I understand.”
I heard enough explanation.
First, I needed to contact the royal family and let them know that I had returned.
“I’ll go to the dean’s office.”
There will be a separate means of contacting you there.
They both looked curious about where I had been all this time, but they knew it was urgent so they didn’t bother to catch me.
So I left the two people alone in the lab.
I was walking down an empty hallway with the coming spring breeze blowing through the window.
[uh?]
At the end of the hallway.
I made eye contact with the purple-eyed woman wearing a black robe.
The area under his eyes was still covered with a translucent black cloth.
Comparing when I was 18 and now, I can definitely see a more mature side in terms of body shape and atmosphere.
[De, de, Deius?!]
She calls my name, making a fuss, and comes running towards me, startled.
[Note, he’s not dead, right? Didn’t he go into rest?! It’s alive, right!]
“okay.”
As I was looking at her making a fuss, I smiled softly without realizing it.
I wanted to say I was glad to meet you, but I couldn’t get the words out properly.
[Deiusuuuuu!]
I welcomed the dark spirit running toward me with tears in my eyes in my own way.
“It’s been a while, Jenny.”
[Pwaaaaaaak!]
Even though it is a soul and can fly.
When I saw her falling and sliding down the hallway, I burst into laughter, forgetting about the current situation.
