654 Lesson 607. Let's settle down a little bit.

"Ivy, let's go somewhere where we can rest."

Huh?

When I saw your father, he looked worried.

What's the matter with you?

You look pale, but don't you notice?

Huh?

Pigmented?

Is that so?

Speaking of which, I may feel a little uncomfortable.

"Ginar, I'm leaving this place for a moment."

"What's the matter, huh? Ivy, what's going on?"

I saw that Mr. Ginar looked at me and was in a hurry.

Could it be that you look rather pale?

"It's okay, I'll rest upstairs."

"Oh, take a good rest."

When I left the room with my father, I went back to the room I was using.

As I entered the room, I saw Sora and the others playing.

I was relieved for some reason by the unusual sight.

“I'll get you some tea. Slow down."

My father leaves the room as I sit on the bed.

When I hear the door of the room closing, I collapse to the back.

"Somehow..."

My heart is in a mess.

"Plump!"

"Phew!"

When I turned to Sola and Sol's voice, I could see them jumping on the bed.

When two cats come to my side, they pull themselves together to stick to my body.

After that, shells in the shape of Flem and Slime stick together in the same way.

When I stroke everyone in order, I feel a little higher.

"Thank you, everybody. I'm so grateful to the astrologer."

The astrologer taught me a lot.

Ways of living in the forest, letters and calculations.

You can say that you have built the foundations for survival.

"Yes, I wouldn't do that if I were in contact with the church."

Are you sure?

Because Mr. Garth said, "Everyone has a contract with the church."

What's that?

And the astrologer said, I have not been to the king's city.

You were gathered to the church in King's Landing, right?

So the fortune-teller has escaped?

... no, I was working as an astrologer, so I don't think so.

If you were running away from the church, you wouldn't be an astrologer.

"I had a contract with the church."

Maybe she approached me for a reason.

But it's also true that you protected me.

But that might have been an instruction from the church.

Ahh, the inside of my head is so messy, too

When I replied because I could hear the door knocking, my father brought me tea.

Yes.

Get up and get some tea from your father.

Tingling and warmth are transmitted to the hands.

"All the astrologers have a contract with the church."

I felt a tingling and a small pain.

Tell me yourself, are you hurt?

Sounds stupid.

"I guess so." But are the fortune-tellers following the church's instructions? ”

Huh?

Look up at your father.

He looked at me with his usual gentle smile.

“The fortune-teller who let Arthur escape was bound by a loose contract.Still, I let Alus go. I bet I turned my back on the church to keep him from leading his own life.Perhaps the contract was activated. "

That's right.

You weren't released from your contract.

It's just "loose."

So I was brought back to the church without escaping.

Still, she defied the will of the church to let Mr. Arth escape.

I don't think the fortune-teller did everything, but maybe he didn't do everything just because he had a contract.

Perhaps the astrologer who helped me also helped me, independent of the Church.

This probably contains my hopes.

So, it may not be true.

But she never told me to go to church.

That's true.

You look a little pale again.

When I saw my father, he stroked my head gently.

"Thank you. I thought 'I had a contract with the church'..."

What should I say?

I can't believe it anymore?

I think this is different.

It's just... yes.

I felt scared.

I felt so scared of something.

“The fortune-teller was an important childhood support for Ivy.I guess that's how I got scared because I didn't know it. "

I see.

I was afraid I might not be the fortune-teller I knew.

"For Ivy, you're the first person to believe it since you fled to the woods, right?"

Who did you believe?

“Maybe so. If it weren't for the fortune-teller, I wouldn't have believed anyone.”

Yeah, I think so.

"Because when you believe something, people are sometimes weaker than you think."

Nodding to your father's words.

I thought it was okay.

And yet, I had a bad idea, and I didn't like thinking about it.

Still, I thought I'd hold on.

I thought it was done properly.

"Maybe I was confused when I heard something I didn't imagine."

I guess so.

Now, I don't doubt what the astrologer did to me.

Bring me the books I need to live, warm drinks and food.

I'm here because of that.

Yes, I am by your father's side.

To a place that is not a church.

Perhaps my skills were judged unnecessary.

Then the church would have told you to leave me alone.

That organization doesn't care about people's lives.

But the fortune-teller helped me.

That's enough.

"I was saved by a fortune teller."

"Oh, that's the most important thing."

Fufu.

When I drank tea, it was already lukewarm.

Still, it's delicious.

"Father."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Is it okay to go to the forest of lights?

I don't doubt the fortune-teller anymore.

But don't forget about the contract.

You were just gathering people in the church?

Maybe not.

There must be something else.

What did the Church want the astrologers to do?

"Hmm, that's it, right?"

Father says.

"I'm not sure I'm going. I think the astrologer who helped Ivy is a good person to listen to.I'm just worried about the contract.It seems that the astrologer who helped Arthur said that the contract was more dangerous than brainwashing. "

"Yeah, it's more dangerous than brainwashing, isn't it?"

Besides, I don't know why I bring people to the church to brainwash.

I thought we were going to do a skill check earlier, but since we're all going to be at church when we're five, we don't have to go out of our way to use a teller to bring people to church.

“I wonder what they were going to do with the people in the church.”

"That's it, isn't it?"You don't have to check your skills.Then there's something else, but there's nothing I can think of. "

The church.

You do a lot of things, don't you?

The church is involved in killing, imprisoning, roaring people, and magic circles.

It's a treasure trove of crime.

“That's right, Dad. How far can the contract go?”

I'm worried about the wording "contract is dangerous".

"If you betray me, I'll kill you."

You can kill people.

The contract is heavier than I thought.

"Is that when you use the special paper I used?"

"No, you can contract on any paper.However, the paper used by Ivy is absolutely secret to the third party.If I tried to find out, the curse would be activated.The curse is not only for those who actually hear what's amazing, but also for those who order it. "

... somehow, I was signing up for a lot of paper.

Now I know what it means to be absolutely fine when Ginar-san signs up.

“Huh? Other than the paper I used, could the third person have a secret?”

"Oh, there's something in the magic item that will void the contract."If you use it, you can void the contract.Well, it's a rare item, but it's not easy to get. "

Still, ordinary paper is dangerous.

Is that why Mr. Ginar recommended the contract using special paper?
