278 Explore The Former Mightiest, Sacred Capital
"Well, let's go on with it!
Hildegard said that abruptly about two hours after he finished his breakfast.
Though for a moment Soma turned her gaze to Hildegard like that, she immediately returns it to hand.
I opened my mouth all the while following the letters written there.
"Is that so? I don't know who you were doing that with or when, but we're gonna do our best, okay?
"It's up to you...! Or yesterday...!
To the words, oh, I see, I wonder if that means continuing the search for the Holy Capital.
Sure, I was hoping I'd do it someday.
"Words can't be conveyed unless they're used accurately, right?
"Stop arguing the truth...! I don't care what you think of me!
"I have no objection there, but that's why I'm saying it doesn't convey the meaning?
"Ah, uh, you can't hear me!
Hold your ears down. Uh, breathe out a sigh of sigh as if you were a child.
Five years ago, I still don't know if it's okay to say goodness now, but it's not good enough to say adult women at first.
At the very least, I want you to do what is appropriate for your appearance.
"... I don't want you to be the only one who says things about words and deeds."
"Yeah? Why? Will my life be doing what it looks like?
"Which mouth says, which mouth. Well, anyway, so, what are we gonna do?
"Hmmm... you are"
To be honest, it wasn't a bad suggestion.
I was given free time and the first thing Soma decided to do was find out if there was anything beneficial written in the given book.
He said he couldn't afford it, but he would be nothing but dumb, waiting to be given information unilaterally.
I should have looked into the range of things I could find out for myself in advance, and that's what I did.
But I've been looking at the book for the last two hours or so, and I couldn't find any more useful information than I thought.
Although it was basically a diagonal reading, there's not much I'd miss if it said something that might help.
I mean, it didn't say that.
Nevertheless, that is also natural in a sense.
The books given to Soma were originally sought only by Soma for himself.
In short, because it is all about magic and magic, there was no way it was written to help this case.
A lot of things I haven't been able to read yet, but that soma doesn't do anything to go ahead with reading it in this situation either.
So I was thinking it was time to do something else.
"Well, it's just fine, and I guess I'll try to change my mood."
"Oh... oh? Oh, are you sure you want to go?
"Why are you acting suspicious when you told me so?
"Oh, that's not true! However, despite what I said, I don't know if you'd be interested in going... so be it! Then go!
Still acting suspiciously, he exhales into Hildegard's appearance, which still seems oddly motivated.
I'm not going to visit the Sacred Capital, but do you remember that area?
Well, if you seem to have forgotten, I just need to point it out all over the city...
Momentum rose up and he turned to the door early enough. Then he shrugged his shoulders, and after cleaning up the book he was reading now, Soma followed.
As a matter of course, the whole city of the Holy Capital seemed very different from what we saw yesterday.
Nevertheless, given that demon possession appeared here yesterday, it seems like it would be nice to have a little more of that atmosphere.
I guess the lack of that means Eleonora and the others worked hard.
"... no, it hasn't changed anything."
"Hmm? What are you talking about?
"Just a little, to the extent that most people don't know, but it's more obscure than yesterday," he said.
"Oh...... sure, you don't see the Holy Knight more than you did yesterday. They try to hide the signs as much as possible, not to be unnatural, so that they don't get noticed."
Even though there was no harmful damage and the residents never knew about it, demonic possessions appeared all over the city, which is true.
Then it would be natural to be more vigilant that there might be another.
It was about once a month that demonic possession appeared, but there is no wonder that unprecedented things have happened at this time now.
Around not failing to prepare for it, is that what you just call a holy knight or something?
"Nevertheless, if the same thing really happens again, I feel like Ingrid will react in some way again... is it just impeccable to say that"
"Well, they'll know better around here. You didn't know about skills, but experience suggests you can trust Ingrid. And even if you don't know who you are, it's not strange to know around Eleonora... No, you should think you do."
"Hmm... I know, but is that, like... Rather than being a knight... you're not counting on me, are you? I can't actually predict everything...... so there is, right?
"At least it doesn't make it clear that something needs to be involved. Even if your instincts are activated, while doing something, there are things you might miss... especially now that you're here."
"Yeah? How does my life relate to that?
"Exactly what happened yesterday, and most of the time, you'll do something about it. Perhaps your instincts shouldn't work so hard."
"Hmm... it's something I knew, but it's far from omnipotent,"
Talking about that, the Somas walk all over the city of the Holy Capital just like they did yesterday.
But that doesn't mean it's exactly the same, because it has a different purpose than yesterday.
Yesterday was just an intrigued walk, but today's is an exploration.
It was to examine and look for certain things.
It came out of Ingrid's words I heard yesterday that I needed to do that.
Demon possession can't be supposed to show up in the Holy Capital.
Besides, Eleonora said it was spoken directly.
That is synonymous with the fact that it is Satya's word.
What God has said should be absolute, and there must be some basis.
At the point where God is manifesting itself, it's not strange that something like that should happen.
So the problem is that despite this, the devil could have appeared here.
Perhaps Eleonora and the others have already looked into the reason for this and know it.
But it must also make sense for the Somas to look into it.
Whatever it is... and there is a reason why I haven't asked about it.
Because in these things, extra preconceptions can easily get in the way.
It makes sense to look it up without knowing anything.
Though.
"Hmm... but you haven't found anything"
"Well, I'm just vaguely looking, because there is. It's not that easy to find in the first place. Candlestick. Besides, it's already been a day. It won't disappear after what happened, but it will fade.... but it's also true that that doesn't explain it."
"That's what this is all about."
If you look, you won't find anything.
That doesn't make sense.
A demon appeared on God's lap.
As Hildegard said, the trace cannot have disappeared so easily.
But if there's really something like, "I can't find it,"
"Oh...? Are you..."
And, to a familiar voice, look back.
What I saw in my sight was a familiar figure, and what gave me a surprising look was undoubtedly Ingrid.
But Soma wasn't too surprised by it because he felt that way somehow.
The type of person who concludes with an account, not an inference, on a clue that cannot be found.
There is only one thing, such as a conclusion that is derived from the combination of the two.
- That is.
"... I see it's a certainty."
With a grunt, Soma exhaled.
