Reincarnating Into Another World
Ep 38: Investigation

"I want to go back to the camp first, Nian.... do you want to be together?. "

I refused Tohru's invitation, because there's still something I have to do tonight. After Tohru left, followed by Yuzure, the only ones left in the dining room are now Himari and me.

"So what do you want to do tonight?" Himari said as she put the spoon and fork back next to the plate.

"Do you want to come?. "

"I don't want it to be a road, it's very boring" he said, wiping the leftovers in his mouth with a napkin.

"Yes. "

I walked out of the castle while waving my right hand at Himari. I went around the city, hoping to find the rest of the information on Selle's movements while she was here.

When I reached a dead-end alley on the edge of town, I found a strange scribble on the floor. I approached the scribble to check, it had a circular shape with a star symbol in the center.

I crouched down, then put my hand over the sign to find out who had put it here.

When my hand came into contact with the sign, I experienced a flashback about someone wearing a robe and also a mask putting this sign on a corner of the city before today's attack.

"Who is he... Is he Selle's man?. "

After that I saw the man walking up the hill near the kingdom and just staying there during the attack.

"Why is he waiting, is he waiting for the book... "

After getting the flashback, I also concluded that Selle was not working alone but was under orders from others.

after finishing getting the information from it, I continued walking the streets around the city. After about half an hour of walking and not finding anything else, I decided to visit Arda's room, I wanted that the night before her to talk to someone.

I began to search for a piece of clues in the pile of documents, until I found a letter that had no name for the delivery.

"What's this.... "

When I looked inside, the letter was empty. It looks like the contents have been disposed of by Arda before.

It was getting late, besides the letter, I found nothing in Arda's room. Since my body was getting tired, because tomorrow I will undergo training with Yuzure I decided to end the search today and return to the room to sleep.

***

In the middle of the silence of the night, it was seen that people were running in the thick of the forest trying to escape from a group of people who ran after them.

Kink....

One of the men tripped over a log and sprained his leg.

The fallen man threw something at the other man.

"Go away, don't let them get it." That person slowly stood up and took out a sword from his waist.

"I'll hold them... "

Although with a heavy heart, he finally left his friend and ran as hard as he could. From a distance he could hear the voice of his friend who was being slaughtered by that person.

With tears dripping from his face, he continued running without looking back again.
