Inside the research facility, scenes and quiet. In the meantime, only Mr. Bonanza's footsteps are echoing. Even though we're hiding the signs, Mr. Bonanza will proceed with dignity with no concern at all.

We acted together for a while and found out that the concept of 'secrecy' does not exist in Mr. Bonanza. I am a person who originally had a lot of presence, but I am completely unwilling to hide my presence in person.

This infiltration will also be found out by the residents upstairs. If someone's asleep without realizing it, you'd be surprised the other way around.

Exploring with signs perception, ten people are still gathered in one room. What bothers me is that only one person stays in another room. Either you're an extra weirdo, or seriously you haven't noticed. Either way, he's weird.

"I think the person left alone is Mr. Coley..."

"Mm-hmm. I'm pretty sure. If you want to go first, that's the room."

When Luna whispered, Ms Lilli agreed with that, too. Someone named Coley seems to have been an extra weirdo.

The second floor is broken up into a few small rooms. Structure close to the inn. Well, it's a dormitory, naturally.

Mr. Lily advised me to go to a room where there was only one person, but it would be troublesome if ten people made a scene while we were talking. I stood in front of a room where ten people were solidifying and used intimidating magic against those inside. For the time being, you won't have to worry about making a scene.

I asked Mr. Bonanza and Lumia to monitor the hallway because I was going to activate the soundproof demon props when I entered the room.

"Then I'll talk to you. I'm sorry, but Mr. Bonanza and Lumia need to keep an eye out in the hallway."

"Yes, sir."

"Lumia? Why do you call me Lumia about Cabel?

Ah... Shit. In front of Mr. Bonanza, he called it 'Cabel'. It's a hassle. Let's delude it properly.

"It's my nickname. We call it Lumia. It's God's name, but it's nothing, okay?

"... right. That's exactly what it feels like to be Lumia. I wish this Co was a real Lumia."

It's real... I won't tell you.

Re-facing the room where only one person is, open the door and go inside.

There's just a small closet and two beds in the room, nothing else. It's a pretty simple room. Someone is hiding in the gap between the bed and the wall wearing a sheet.

The sheets were stripped off and Mr. Lily checked his face.

"... Long time no see, Corey"

That's what Mr. Lily said. Reaching out to Corey, pulling Corey's hand and letting him sit on the bed? I did.

Mr. Lily calls it 'you' against everyone, but only Corey calls it off. I guess that's all the intimacy.

I was able to confirm that it was me for the first time. Activate the Soundproofing Demon Prop.

Corey is a little younger than Lily. She is a tall woman with dark brown hair and features a bob-cut to the extent that her ears hide, a round face and round eyes.

"... Huh? Lily? Luna too...... who's left?

Corey checked our faces in turn and shrugged with a frightened face.

"You summoned him, not the apostle. I've never seen you before."

It's been a long time since you called me "the one who isn't." I don't mean it, but I think it's the easiest way to say it as an introduction.

Corey and I have never met before. That said, this guy was in charge of forming the leanest relationship with me.

There are three main roles in the Magic Academy. Luna is in charge of magic and design, and Lily is in charge of enchantment. People in charge of formation rarely come out caged in the workplace. For that reason, I didn't see much of him when he went into or out of the Magic Inn.

"Huh... why? Why are you with me? So, those two are the apostles?

Corey looks at Claire and Leeds and says: They're pretty confused. Claire has dark hair, so I don't know. But Leeds is an animal man, no matter what he thinks. Why is the Apostle the Beast Man?

"You're not. Calm down first. We need to talk."

"What was that awesome noise earlier? Luna, what is it?

Corey asked Luna for help without hiding the confusion.

"I wanted to talk to Mr. Coley, so I came here. It's been a bit of a rough way..."

"Then write me a letter or so! What are you gonna do with me?

When Corey said warmly, Mr. Lily returned the words.

"I didn't know if you could read the letter. You wouldn't have even responded to the king's call, would you?

"... about what?

The King's request didn't even reach Corey. Perhaps the church deliberately stopped it. The church is really licking the country and the king.

"Haven't you received a letter of call from the state?

"I haven't seen it...... you know, were you here?

Corey opened the closet, saying so.

Inside, clothes are piled up with a sneeze. Behind it, several unopened envelopes had been pushed in.

Luna says, covering her frightened face with her hands.

"That's it. You haven't read it..."

You just haven't read it... It's not good to blame the church for everything.

"I see... Koh, this guy is real and for sure. This lack of co-ordination, this nasty personality, whatever you think, belongs to Corey himself."

Mr Lilly says in a fed up manner.

I also thought about the possibility that Corey was being taken over by Mills, but I don't think I have to worry about that. On the other hand, it's a shame. One less chance to see Mills.

With me elsewhere in a complicated mood, Mr. Lily and Coley continued their conversation.

"What do you mean?

"It's about this way. Corey doesn't have to worry about it. More than that, I would like to hear about the Apostolic Summoning. Why did you give the church a hand?

"... I have to tell you?

"No. It is necessary to stop the Apostolic Summoning."

"I'm stopping...? Trouble! Don't make me stop! Because I won't bother the Magic Academy!

"Why bother? If you have a reason to be in trouble, talk."

Ms Lilli took advantage of the adrift and lay low that the postponement had already been decided and that she had recovered the surgical formula. It's an important card, so I guess you thought it would be a shame to cut it out now.

"... I can't tell you. If that's what you're doing, go home!

I can't go on, so let's disclose one piece of information. I interrupted the conversation.

"No, you can't go home. The King consolidated his policy of suspending the Apostolic Summoning. Give it up and talk."

"It doesn't matter what the King's policy is. I'll summon you on my own."

Ah... the ritual of apostolic summons is definitely not something you have to do in the royal castle. If the surgery and the surgeon are aligned, they can be performed anywhere.

I am doing this on purpose in the Royal Castle in order to get the cooperation of the state. The state provides a variety of support, including good offices for work and the provision of identity cards and clothing and accommodation.

"Do that on your own, and what are you going to do with the invoked apostle? Wouldn't you be able to live a decent life without State aid?"

"Because they don't call me. Because it will definitely fail. Life has nothing to do with it."

That's what Corey affirmed. Are you intentionally going to let it fail?

"How can you say it's going to fail? No way, did you make replicas, too?

"You know, I can't do it alone. I mean, who made that replication, how?

Reproduction of the surgical ceremony seems to be a rather difficult task. The chief's arm is a big deal. But isn't it known who made it? Well, if you knew you could make it, you wouldn't be living swallowed up in the Magic Academy. I guess I hid it desperately.

But can you assure me that using the real thing will fail?

"Hey...... if you absolutely fail, wouldn't ten surgeons just die for nothing? Who's gonna get it for doing that?"

"Nobody gets it now. For the future."

For the future? Build up your track record of failing and make you stop the Apostolic Summoning? Then you can get on with this suspension proposal. What you're saying is ruptured. I have no idea what that means.

"Lily, I'm sorry. Interpret me. I don't feel like I'm speaking the same language"

"Koh, give it up. That's Coley. I don't even understand what he's thinking."

"Huh? I thought Lily would understand. No..."

Corey swelled her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

"Hey, what happens when a surgical ceremony fails? You want Corey to fail, don't you?

Leeds, who had been static until now, suddenly pinched his mouth. I'm just standing there with no interest when I talk about these things, but it's rare.

Leeds should also know that the surgeon will be dead and over. I don't know what you want to do when you hear this.

"... is that what you're asking? I can't tell you. I can't tell you, go home."

Corey shut her mouth again. Apparently, Leeds' point made an important point. Is it time to put out a trump card?

"We recovered the technique. No apostolic summons may be made"

"What? Why? Give it back! Without it..."

"If you want it back, tell me why. We'll work together in some cases."

If Coley's purpose was empathetic, it's not stingy to return the surgical ceremony.

"Crush the church. It's not just the Apostolic Summoning. Gonna crush the church itself."

That's close to my purpose. Either that or is it close to Mr. Bonanza's purpose? My aim is to disable the Church today. Mr. Bonanza's aim is to physically crush the Church.

Each one sees the church as an enemy, but the method and the end are subtly different in each.

I understand the purpose, but you're not connected to the Apostolic Summoning. There will be no need to detain yourself to the Apostolic Summon.

"Why the apostolic summons? You don't need an apostolic summons if you're just gonna crush it."

"… Apostolic summons, when used without an apostle, a magic without a place to go explodes. The church will be a new place."

Too much noise...... More radical than Mr. Bonanza.

Were you going to blow the whole church to the stomach where you were about to be killed? You can never tell people this. Corey, who's in the middle of a blast, will probably die. It's a life-threatening revenge. I'm not about to double back. Return 10,000 times.

Revenge won't be the only reason, but this guy's ideas are pretty dangerous.

At the very least, I don't want anyone unrelated involved, but I guess church officials are all enemies to Coley. It's a complete plan to kill them all. I don't care what you think, he's dangerous.

"If you hear that, you have to stop..."

"I don't want people to tell me to come on board while I destroy the church!

Ugh... my ear hurts when they say that. Anything you tried to burn, and I pretty much destroyed it today. Oh, I need to hide the evidence on my way home...

What you're trying to do is the same as Corey. But it's not exactly the same.

"I take care to keep people from dying as long as possible. I'm not like you."

I feel bad about people dying, so I deal with it with non-killing magic as much as I can. Even church officials intend to stick to this policy.

"Well, it's Corey, so I can't help it. That's what Corey is. When multiple means are available, choose the method that is most damaging"

I said with a sigh, as Mr. Lily had given up.

What an annoying one... I could understand why Luna and Mr. Lily didn't get in touch after they quit. I don't want to get caught up in this guy's behavior.

The procedure is still recovered. It would be dangerous if I gave it to this man. I'll try to persuade you for once, but let's not get deeply involved.
