040 – Queen of the Night #2

040 – Queen of the Night #2

“Are you gone? did you go?”

Salome kept a good look at the front door of the school through the hallway window.

I was relieved only after the appearance of Judas that had just been there disappeared.

‘Boy Juda, why are you making a fuss all the way to school?’

At any rate, Salome’s true identity was almost revealed.

If it was discovered that Salome was Naru’s homeroom teacher, there would have been an uproar.

Then it was clear that Salome would have to quit teaching and the way to approach Naru would be complicated.

“I need to think of countermeasures in case they come to school. It’s already been over 10 minutes since the first period started.”

drooling-.

Salome opened the classroom door and entered.

Then, the students who had been talking for a while shut their mouths.

“Why are you so noisy? I can hear you talking all the way to the hallway. Temporary class president, didn’t you tell me to write down the names of the kids who talk when the teacher isn’t there?”

Salome asked the children.

Then someone raises their hand.

It was Naru.

“Naruya, do you have something to say? You are not the temporary class president.”

“that’s right! But today, the temporary class president, Tywin, didn’t come to school!”

“… … .”

Salome thought Naru’s story was ridiculous.

That’s right, Tywin Cladeco is a child called a genius.

Because he wasn’t stupid enough to be late or absent.

But looking at it now, Tywin’s seat was really empty.

‘tardy? Or absent? What happened?’

It was suspicious.

Should I say it smells like an incident?

‘Maybe it’s not a big deal. If a famous little brat like Tywin gets caught up in nothingness, my position as teacher could be in jeopardy.’

Salome thought calmly.

“You guys, study on your own for today. and Elizabeth. You’re the temporary class president for today, so if there are kids who talk, write down their names.”

“Yeah!”

Shuk-.

Salome left the classroom.

Then, I headed to the room where the principal of this school, Cladeco, was.

smart-.

Knock on the door.

-Please come in.

Leaky, Giik-.

As I opened the door, I saw an office that could be called a library.

Looking at the woman filling out the paperwork inside, Salome frowned slightly.

‘El Cladeco.’

A magician who is said to be close to transcendence.

Standing in front of her, Salome asked, pretending to be a good teacher.

“Dean, there’s something I’d like to tell you about Miss Tywin.”

“About Tywin? Did Tywin have another accident in class today?”

“No, it’s because Miss Tywin didn’t show up for school today.”

tall-.

Dean Cladeco’s hand, which was signing the document, stopped.

she asked, slowly putting her fingers in her eyes.

“You mean you were absent?”

“That’s right. Did Miss Tywin get home well last night?”

“… I do not know. I am a body that has been working in an office without work for a week. Anyway, when we meet, I’ll punish you so that you don’t do things like absence again.”

“… … .”

Salome nodded and left the room.

“I don’t even know when it disappeared. Are you not interested in your daughter? This is why I hate wizards. Knowledge-crazy bastards.”

tsk-.

Salome clicked her tongue.

To be honest, to Salome, who wasn’t even a real teacher, Tywin was a student who didn’t even know what happened to him, but there wasn’t even a teacher who wanted to keep an eye on Naru.

“I can’t let my class cause problems. Shall we treat it as something that has not been done quietly in my line?”

Salome already knew where the missing girls were going.

“Probably “Night Garden”.”

* * *

“Tywin is absent.”

“Where are you sick?”

“No, it can’t be. Have you ever been kidnapped?”

“Tywin kidnapped. I don’t think it makes any more sense. Tywin is stronger than most adults. It’s already a bronze tier.”

The children whispered.

Elizabeth, who became the temporary class president, thought it best to keep the children quiet.

But I couldn’t.

Because the children were talking about things that bothered them.

‘Tywin, why are you absent?’

Elizabeth was Tywin’s rival.

I don’t know if Tywin thought so, but at least Elizabeth thought so.

His rival, Tywin, would know better than anyone how big an impact truancy can have on his score.

I thought it was not normal for a guy like that to be absent.

purr-.

Then a small cry was heard.

When I turned my head, Naru was sleeping on her stomach.

As soon as I started self-study, I dozed off and fell asleep.

“Muhh… two cats… coalescence… My name is Naruberos… .”

‘What the hell is he dreaming about?’

Should I wake up and ask?

It was time to think like that.

One of the girls who used to hang out with Tywin shouted.

“Tywin can’t do something like absenteeism on his own. It’s clear that you’re going through something bad. By any chance, did anyone see Tywin yesterday? Who was the last person you saw?”

“I saw it when I left the classroom.”

“I saw you on the playground.”

The children opened their mouths one by one.

It seems to be trying to pick out the person who saw it last.

Soon, Naru shouted as if waking up from sleep.

“Naru, I saw you yesterday at dismissal time! The one in front of the front door!”

Naru remembered that Tywin was looking around.

It was like waiting or looking for someone.

“Maybe he was trying to find the fantasy creature Clouding?”

That was all Naru could guess.

Perhaps Tywin had been absent from school as he ran around in search of a mysterious cloud-like creature.

Of course, someone denied that opinion.

“I saw Tywin… .”

“Who is he?”

“Is there a kid like that in our class?”

The children whispered.

He was a child with long dark gray hair that hid his face.

It was also a girl who was so unfamiliar that all the children did not know her name.

The temporary class president, Elizabeth, recognized the child.

“Attendance number 33, Miss Valier?”

“yes… . I saw Tywin. I went with my older sisters in a black carriage. Sisters… . It smelled like alcohol… . Muh, there were also scary old men with tattoos… .”

A girl named Valiere told a rather surprising story.

black carriage.

sisters.

Guys with tattoos.

Although the children did not know much about the world, they could well grasp that all of the above were attributes of a kind far from ‘Genius Tywin’.

“There was a painting like this on the carriage… .”

A girl named Valiere started drawing in her notebook.

It was like a flag.

A flag with an animal on it.

The animal’s name was—.

“Naruberos?”

“no!”

* * *

“It’s a bat.”

“It’s a bat.”

Enkidus nodded.

Above his shiny bald head, a flag with a bat on it fluttered in the wind.

It was a palace-like building.

Would this be the case if the harem where the sultan of Islam lived in pleasure existed?

The palace was really huge.

It is on a level comparable to that of the Ragdoll family’s mansion.

Through the open windows, girls dressed like dancers peeked out their faces.

Looking at it makes me dizzy in many ways.

“Is this really the right place for you?”

I asked again.

This is number 61, which can be said to be an extraterritorial area.

I wanted to ask if the reason Enkidus brought me to this place was really certain.

Then Enkidus answered confidently.

“This is called the largest entertainment street in Phrygia. The astrologer is said to be here. It is said that it predicts what will happen in the future with its mystical ability.”

“yes?”

“However, the small monk is immersed in the doctrine of Ilgwang Ascension. Doctrinally, I cannot enter these places, so I had no choice but to ask you, Judah, for help.”

“So you want me to go in and ask the astrologer where your brother-in-law Mara is?”

“It is indeed like that. Judas, it’s good that you understand so quickly. You can ask when Naru’s birthday is, so you won’t lose anything by meeting him.”

“You are an astrologer.”

To be honest, I didn’t believe in divination or horoscopes.

However, it has to be below the bottom line.

I also shouted out loud that I would look for Lady Rione this time, so let’s meet again.

“Okay, let’s go inside. It would be better to hide your true identity.”

Instead of Enkidus, who could not enter the entertainment business because of doctrine, I decided to enter the “Garden of Night”, the pleasure palace located at number 61.

To be honest, I was a little nervous.

I didn’t come as a guest, I came with a purpose.

If I hadn’t worn a mask, I wouldn’t have been able to hide my bright red face from everyone.

When I entered the front door and looked around, I saw a lobby covered with colorful tiger skins, and there were women sitting in it as if they were sprawled out and laughing.

They were women wearing thin silk clothes.

They are like Arab dancers.

Such women were all over the place lying on their stomachs or sitting lazily, but there was really no place to look.

“excuse me.”

I spoke to the woman who seemed to be the madam in the lobby.

Could it be that you are in your 40s?

“What are you here for?”

“I am looking for someone. An astrologer.”

“ah. You’re looking for an astrologer. Then would you please sit down and wait where I will guide you? Is this your first time in “Garden of the Night”?”

It’s an intense question.

Without even a moment to answer, I ended up sitting in a room.

It was a room with a bed and lots of mysterious myrrh.

—-.

You can also hear a lot of annoying noises from the next room.

It was very awkward for some reason.

So I just got out of the room.

As I was slowly walking down the hallway, I saw women strewn about like wet laundry.

However, those eyes were hazy and unfocused, which seemed to be insane.

alcohol?

No, it smells like alcohol, but it’s not too bad.

“Even more so Princess Power C.”

Bondi career women generally had low princess power.

There are many things that cannot be measured.

However, the princess power of the women in this place was reaching the C level intermittently.

“Are you noble?”

Are they women of noble origin?

Suddenly, I remembered the story of the mysterious women disappearing.

“Is the young lady a kidnapped noble?”

I asked the woman lying on the floor.

But the woman couldn’t answer my question.

Only two unhealed holes in the woman’s neck stand out.

It looked like it had been pierced with something like an awl.

“Are they traces of a vampire?”

vampire.

A fearsome half-human, half-horse being.

He was a blood thief who hid himself in darkness or stole human blood.

It seemed that such an existence had built a nest in this “Night Garden”.

enough story.

“If it were real, Garot and Brigitte, who are investigating number 61, would have a hard time. Because all vampires are formidable.”

As I was muttering to myself, the madam from earlier found me.

“Guest, are you here? The astrologer wants to see you. Originally, the astrologer doesn’t show up at such an early hour. You’re lucky. Are you prepared with plenty of money?”

“ah.”

You should also see an astrologer.

I followed Madam and headed to the upper room.

There was a large marble in it, and a girl was sitting behind it.

The size was very small.

A veil was draped over her head to hide her entire body.

All that was revealed was his small stature and gray hair.

It felt somehow familiar.

I asked.

“You look like a child, but are you an astrologer?”

“yes. I am an astrologer Look at the stars and the sky and guess the future. i know everything Your name too.”

“Hey, do you know my name?”

“I may have hidden my identity with a mask, but I can read karma. Your name is Bendit Yuda.”

That’s right.

But in a way, he was a pure quack.

I must say I got it half right.

Soon the guy added a word.

“There is a terrible disaster in your destiny. You could say it’s a bad star. You better be careful.”

disaster?

To pour a curse on a person at all costs.

I was offended.

I tried to pretend I didn’t know as much as possible.

“Tywin Cladeco. Does your mother even know what you are doing here?”

“I-I am not Tywin… ! I am an astrologer—”

Shuk-.

I pulled the veil over his head.

Then the face was revealed, and the A+ class princess Tywin, who was terribly embarrassed, panicked.

“That, bring that here!”

“Even with this thin cloth, you can’t hide your princess power. I don’t know why you’re in a place like this when you should have been taking classes at school.”
