What the hell do you want? Perhaps, you came here to get caught?
Dont worry, I dont have such praiseworthy feelings.
Praiseworthy? I dont think youre even normal.
Thats a shame.
Ghost had appeared from the shadows and had little presence, but tension ran down Cordelias back.
(Even though its like hes a mirage)
The pressure that Ghost was lightly giving off was intense, and it took all she had to remain calm.
(I should have waited for Ronnie.)
If I had, then we might have caught Ghost. She thought, but Ghost might not have appeared had Ronnie been here. I know that hes wary and quick at escaping.
(But, that means its unnatural for him to show up in the royal castle where it is closely guarded.)
If he came to the castle for something, then he wouldnt act in a way that would reveal himself. If he didnt need anything, then he wouldnt come to the castle.
(And even during the Flora Silk incident, Ghost hadnt been directly involved, as he just enjoyed the events as a spectator.)
If I think that way, then its hard to imagine that he came here to harm me, and if he wanted to hurt me then he would have attacked me before showing himself. However, he hadnt. If there is a reason for him to come into contact with me then
Did you come here because you had something to say to me?
Im glad youre quick-witted. I heard that you could come to the castle, and thought of it as a chance, so I was waiting for you.
Cordelia was rarely without a guard whenever she went out, so although she didnt want to admit it, he was correct. Moreover, Cordelia, herself, thought of the castle as a safe place and hadnt thought of any other dangerous elements except for the Prince.
Even so, the security of the castle is amazing. I used a ridiculous amount of magic to erase my presence, but this is the only place I can sneak into. Jeez, I could probably take a lot of jobs if they loosen their guard a little. I could even come here to play.
If you want, I could call the guards here now?
Judging from how guarded the castle was, if Cordelia were to use magic here, then the guards would immediately come flying here just from the magic reaction. However, Ghost could get away in the meantime. Cordelia didnt want to let Ghost escape yet.
(I dont think I can create a chance to catch him, but I want to get some information out of him.)
Cordelia thought as she examined his attitude.
Ghost was smiling wryly underneath his hood.
Dont look at me with such a scary face. I only came here to give you information.
Information?
Yup. In conclusion, I thought I should tell you that a certain man is trying to kidnap a kid. Dont you feel like capturing the kidnappers?
Suspicious.
Ghost shrugged towards Cordelia, who didnt hide her expression before she spoke.
Is it weird that Im doing something righteous? Well, I dont want to do something troublesome, but it cant be helped. Unfortunately, it would be a nuisance for me if she were to be brought to Dulaus.
To the north? Are people in Dulaus trying to kidnap a child?
I know that his headquarters were in Dulaus Kingdom to the north, but is it possible for kidnappers from that Kingdom to cross the border to target a specific child? But with that in mind, Cordelia gulped. Ghost laughed in satisfaction.
