You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel?

After digging for a long time, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, felt a little hot, so he took off his coat and put it on the high platform.

"There's not even a shovel or anything, my back is so sore..."

He slowly got up, supporting his back, intending to find some vines nearby and make a simple shovel using the broken pole and wooden shield.

If he were to return to Whitestone Town, the bodies of Kaz and the others might be eaten by monsters, so they had no choice but to use what they had on hand.

Not long after Lot left, another storm swept across the grasslands.

Eleanor arrived here with Chloris.

Chloris saw the bloodstains on the platform. Before the ghost fox could even settle down, she flipped over and jumped to the ground, then quickly ran up to the platform.

She saw the bodies of Katz and the others, and she saw Lott's coat.

It’s over.

It's all over.

Chloris searched for Lott's whereabouts, but found nothing.

She became increasingly anxious, going from searching slowly at the beginning to jogging at the end.

But there was nothing around her; only the cold, lifeless corpses answered her.

Eleanor spoke up, "Miss Chloris, please don't be sad."

"Was he eaten by a monster?" Chloris asked Eleanor, her eyes red. "He's the only one not here. Was he eaten by a monster?"

"It's very likely so."

Chloris picked up Lotte's clothes from the ground, letting the wind tousle her bangs.

The ghost fox was the first to notice the abnormality. It shook its head slightly and then looked to its right, which Eleanor followed.

"Miss Chloris."

Chloris didn't move; she gripped her spear tightly and kept looking at Lotte's coat.

She remembered wearing this coat before entering the tavern in Whitestone.

"Miss Chloris, the person you're looking for is still alive."

Chloris hurriedly looked up and turned around to see a man carrying a strange hoe.

That was Lotte, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

"Hmm?" Lott raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. "What brings you all here? Chloris, you've come to lend me a hand. I don't know how long I'd have to dig by myself..."

A glistening tear streaked through the air, and the girl's long, flowing hair left afterimages as she ran.

Chloris leaped to Lotte's side in a few steps and hugged him tightly.

Her hot breath fell on Lotte's neck, and her rapid heartbeat pounded against Lotte's chest.

"That really scared me... I thought you'd been eaten!"

"Me? You thought something had happened to me?"

"If you ever dare to leave me alone on a mission again, I'll never talk to you again."

Chloris pulled away from Lotte's embrace, wiping the tears from her face with her wrist. "Did you hear that?"

"I heard you, I heard you."

Lotte then looked at Eleanor behind Chloris.

When he saw the undead fox beneath Eleanor, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

Chapter 43 The Strange Logic Takes Shape

Undead summoning magic?

The principles of this spell were explained in "Los Wesson's Basic Arcane Arts". The proficiency level of this spell is tied to the summoned creature; the higher the evolution level of the summoned creature, the higher the proficiency level, and the stronger the power.

Although Lotte didn't get any magic from Katz, he unexpectedly found Eleanor's necromancy, so his trip wasn't a complete waste.

At the current rate of analysis, it should only take a few days to learn it.

Eleanor noticed something strange in Lott's eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's alright, it's alright. Do you know Miss Chloris?"

"My family asked me to come and help."

"Your parents?"

Cloris was still emotional. She fanned the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand and continued to sob as she said, "She was a beautiful girl with blue eyes."

Blue eyes.

Pretty girl.

Lotte immediately thought of Isolde.

No way? Isn't she from the Valgard family? She's clearly in the far northern border!

Chloris noticed the change in Lott's expression; she frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

Eleanor looked around and, finding no trace of any monsters, said, "The danger is over now. I need to go back and report to the adults. Do you want to come with me?"

"No need, I haven't finished digging yet."

Eleanor nodded and looked at Lotte. "What's your name? I'll go back and report to the master."

His name is...

Lott stepped forward and tightly covered Chloris's mouth, then said to Eleanor, "Do you really have to ask her name?"

"Hmm? No need for that."

Eleanor didn't delve into it further; she didn't think there could be any connection between the country bumpkin Lotte and the young lady of the Valgard family. Isolde should care about Chloris, not the man in front of her.

“Miss Chloris,” Eleanor turned and looked back at Chloris, “My master is leaving for the capital tonight. If fate allows, we may meet again someday. She said she will wait for you in the capital.”

After saying this, Eleanor rode away on her undead fox and disappeared into the vast grassland.

Lotte, still holding Chloris's mouth, stood there, and the two of them fell into deep thought.

Lott had a strong feeling that the person was Isolde. Could it be that she had already discovered her identity and was approaching Chloris in order to get closer to herself?

Chloris kept connecting all the clues in her mind.

She didn't know the blue-eyed girl, but the other girl seemed to care about her a lot and asked her about things like love when they first met.

When Lott heard the other person's characteristics, his expression changed noticeably, and he was unwilling to mention his name, indicating that the two people likely know each other.

If that's the case...

Chloris guessed that the other person knew her name probably because Lott had once told her, "I'm currently teaming up with a girl named Chloris who has amber eyes."

After learning about Lott's accident, the other person took the initiative to ask if he needed help. It seemed like he was helping himself, but in reality, he was helping Lott!

At the same time, the reason why Lott was able to learn meditation and why he progressed so quickly was because he secretly received help from that blue-eyed girl.

Chloris then recalled that when she first met Lott, Lott asked her if she knew the Valgard family, who used swords.

Could it be... could it be that the blue-eyed nobleman is a member of the Valgard family? Is Lott actually testing me?

It seems like everything has fallen into place...

Chloris continued to speculate that either the other person was Lott's older or younger sister, who had come to assess whether she was qualified to be Lott's fiancée.

But Lott clearly doesn't resemble the other person; they don't seem like relatives.

Or...

Either that person is Lott's lover, or she likes Lott and sees herself as a rival!

Is that so?

Chloris felt she was being a bit far-fetched, but then everything seemed strangely reasonable.

However, there was also the possibility of something like friendship, which Chloris couldn't figure out for the moment, and she was too embarrassed to ask Lott.

Lotte and Chloris remained in that position for a long time under the moonlight.

It wasn't until Chloris's mouth was almost red from being covered by Lotte's hand that Chloris realized what was happening and began to struggle and whine.

Chloris wiped her mouth and glared at Lotte.

Lotte was still concerned about Isolde, "Chloris, is that blue-eyed girl impressive? What kind of expression does she have on her face?"

"I can't tell she's skilled, and she doesn't show any emotion. She's just beautiful, very beautiful. Her age is probably around ours."

As Lotte dug the hole, he thought about Isolde.

The blue-eyed person is not necessarily a member of the Valgard family, and that person is not necessarily Isolde.

Moreover, Isolde possesses the ability to predict the world, so she should be quite powerful, not so much so that the Adventurers' Guild would issue raid requests along the way for her protection.

As he pondered, a deep pit was dug.

Lotte carried Katz and the other three inside, and also searched their pockets for coins.

A total of 34 silver and 12 copper.

"Chloris, can we contact Katz's family through the Adventurers' Guild?"

"So, you're going to send this money to their families?"

“Four silver coins are enough to help someone collect a corpse.” Lotte picked out four silver coins and put the remaining 30 silver and 12 copper coins into his pocket. “Katz shouldn’t be short of money, but the other three might not be. Judging from their age, they probably all have children at home.”

Lotte handed two of the four to Chloris, saying, "Here you go, thank you for saving me."

"Hmph, who wants your money? I didn't come to save you for money."

"Then I'll keep it myself."

Just as Lott was about to put the money away, Chloris grabbed his wrist and pulled out two silver coins. "My tears are very valuable. I can't let them go to waste."

Chloris put the money in her pocket. "If you ever leave me alone again, I'll tell everyone that you and that noble lady from earlier are having an affair."

“You wouldn’t,” Lott grinned. “Such rumors would damage the reputation of that noble lady. Miss Chloris would never do such a thing.”

"you!"

The pit was gradually filled in, and Katz and his men, along with their weapons, were buried in an unnamed place beneath the high platform.

Lotte tamped the soil down a bit, and Chloris took a handful of blue fluorescent grass seeds and sprinkled them on top.

She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and...

In this world, there is no such thing as fallen leaves returning to their roots.

Adventurers are usually buried directly where they die, and their tombstones mark the end of their journey.

"Let's go."

Lotte and Chloris retraced their steps back to Whitestone, the blue lights floating in the air illuminating their way home.

A group of adventurers squatted at the entrance of White Rock Town, which was covered with flowers and green vines. They watched Lotte and Chloris walk into the town and whispered among themselves.

"This person is carrying both a sword and a staff, isn't that Master Feng'en?"

"Really? That's the fairy maiden under the moonlight over there?"

"So beautiful..."

"Please wait a moment, both of you."

Several adventurers caught up with Lotte and his companion from behind, their faces bearing friendly smiles.

The time-limited mission has now ended, and Lotte and Chloris have pocketed the lion's share. Logically, they should be angry, but no one dares to confront the two of them.
