It was late at night, so all the lights were turned off. This was a space meant only for Julianna, and when she doesn't stop by the tower, no one comes by to check.

"It's pretty spacious." Romeo muttered a little.

It was a splendid tower with a unique style.

"Yeah."

What they all commonly remembered was Cedric and Damien's faces. They had joined the Dragon slaying team belatedly.

In conclusion, they did not get along very well with these four people.

Cedric and Damien were always in the centre of attention, and these four tended to avoid any sort of attention, staying in a group. However, looking at the results, it was these four people who made a bigger contribution to the Dragon's death.

They called the twin brothers, Cedric and Damien, 'talking pups'.

Moreover, the twins were the sons of Emperor Perseus.

As of now, Emperor Perseus was one of their suspects. It was natural for Cedric and Damien to seem bad to these four.

Of course, they could not yet be sure that Emperor Perseus was the culprit. In order to find solid evidence, they had to find the person named Lelia, another suspect.

"She killed Leo, lived comfortably in a place like this, and ran away... But why did she run away?" Kalix muttered, lowering the blindfold that had been on the whole time.

"She must have thought that she could become the Empress if she killed Leo, but got taken aback when Emperor Perseus appeared out of nowhere. Maybe she ran away because she didn't want him to find out." Griffith replied.

Romeo, who had been listening, added one more hypothesis, "Maybe she ran away because Cedric and Damien would assassinate her."

Oscar also voiced his opinion, "On the contrary, Emperor Perseus may have hidden her."

The more new information was collected, the more it seemed strange.

When one question arose, another question came up, and back to square one.

But the four instinctively believed that one thing was certain.

That a woman named 'Lelia' was very deeply involved in Leo's death. And that she was most likely the culprit.

The biggest reason for their doubt was Leo's last message.

"How do you find someone whom even the emperor gave up on chasing?"

Kalix stared openly at Romeo, telling him to do something.

"..."

At that gaze, Romeo blinked, like it was absurd.

Romeo already had magical powers, but after the battle with the Light Dragon, he gained tremendous magical power. The fact that he had absorbed the magic from the heart of the Light Dragon was a secret that no one but these four knew.

However, his abilities were not yet stable, and he had periodic painful seizures.

"Hey, there's got to be some kind of trace left for magic tracking. What am I supposed to do when there's nothing?" When Romeo objected, Kalix turned his head and looked at Griffith.

"...Griffith, it's a chance to prove that divinity is superior to magic."

"It's the same in my case too. How can I track when we have nothing to trace based off of?" Griffith replies angrily.

"This is why God can't be trusted." Kalix murmured as Griffith replied.

Oscar asked Romeo, "Then, what about that fountain pen? We can't use it?"
