“For someone you can't track or be aware of, something like this definitely brings out a strong sense of curiosity in you.”
Especially for magus who are crazy about knowledge.
Erick's words were very correct. Everything in this place came after being selected by Leight on Roderick's orders. Those who come here have one common goal.
The Forgotten One. A crazy mystery in various organizations around the world. Its presence was like an unknown ghost and disappeared from this world as if it had never existed in the world.
Honestly, even Erick was surprised when he heard this information. Tower Leader was an existence that seemed ordinary when he first saw him. There was nothing special when they met at Austin Farmland.
But he brought so many mysteries and surprises to him. He's someone who really makes an organization like Austin Farmland welcome him so well. When he made a contract with him, his body seemed to be freed and he received information that his master was someone who led the magic Tower of Babel.
Even to Erick himself, the figure of the Tower Leader always looked like a mist that he couldn't see. Like a figure in the fog that he couldn't see clearly.
Apart from that, the only thing he knew about Tower Leader was that the person was not from the world they were currently in. Zaratul had told him a little about this when they were still in the small room that Ercik had rented.
Even so, Zaratul himself was not sure about that. Whether his memory was true or not, he had also begun to forget it.
“Since you have already guessed what we all want, why bother doing this? We all want to know the person you are with. The Forgotten One, tell us all about it.” Ms. Linda answered in a slightly forced tone.
Moriarty didn't say anything and continued to look at Erick and the two people beside him.
Mr.Z also looked curiously.
Erick didn't answer. It wasn't that he didn't want to answer but No.1 who was beside him laughed disdainfully when he heard the nonsense that the bitch in front of him said. “little bitch. Who are you to dare ask about the identity of our leader casually like that? If you want to ask about that, first destroy the two eyeballs you have and bow your head to us.”
“You think we don't realize what you're doing right now. If you're just investigating then I won't comment. But when you try to bewitch us with your rotten eyes, I will no longer hesitate to kill you.” No.1 stood up and threw something from his hand toward Ms.Linda's eyes.
The two guards next to him immediately acted and caught the two daggers in their hands.
“Hehe… great. I didn't know you guys were so knowledgeable.” Ms. Linda showed a sly smile while touching the two black daggers and destroying them easily. "That just adds to my desire to know who The Forgotten One really is."
She fiddled with her fingers and replicated the shape of the dagger that No.1 threw and threw it back at Erick. No.1 caught it with both hands and felt the frozen pain in his hands.
"This…"

He looked at his hand which couldn't let go of the dagger because it was frozen and fused.
“Isn't what you can do with magic so interesting? We could commit unthinkable crimes and no one would know about it. We can destroy a city, rape all we want, or make other people's lives miserable with magic. It all depends on what we want and what we desire.” Linda said that while forming two other daggers and playing with them in her hands.
She once again looked at Erick but there was no response from the eyes he gave him.
It's amazing. He is the weakest person in this place but no matter what, I can't bewitch that person. Linda was very curious about Erick.
First of all his body hooked him and also he was quite handsome. The two eyes she had not affect him. Additionally, he has a connection to The Forgotten One.
“What a shame… If it wasn't for Bastard Roderick being here, I would definitely kidnap that guy. Oh... maybe I can imprison him in the prison I own and make him produce good offspring. If his descendants can inherit Erick's constitution, I can use it as a test to see how much potential that body has.”
“But it would be a shame to only use it as an object that can produce offspring. Maybe I can use it as an experiment to increase the power I have… That's right, there was research conducted by someone at the magic institute regarding how bondage and control can be exercised over one's body. Maybe I can ask that person to dissect Erick alive. I'm sure that he will also be happy when he hears it.”
Ms. Linda thought that it was a good idea without realizing that the gaze was directed at her now.
“What the Fuck? I know that you are crazy, but at least shut your mouth when you have such disgusting thoughts. What were you thinking by saying that out loud.” Mr. Z looked at Ms. Linda with a disgusting look.
“I know that Magus in this world can be quite cruel, but you don't need to say it so clearly.” Moriarty shook his head.
The third person also said nothing. He just leaned back with his palms while waiting for the drama that might happen. “He played an interesting trick.”
I knew that this person was unusual. He looked between Erick and Ms. Linda while showing a faint smile.
"What do you mean?" Ms. Linda didn't understand what was happening. The guard next to him told him what had just happened and his face became furious.
His gaze at Erick changed. It was no longer a gaze filled with interest, but a gaze filled with anger. “What did you just do to me?”
A terrifying explosion of magic energy exploded in the air. Linda's aura seemed so oppressive even though it gave off the gentle feeling of a tree that sheltered everything.
In this world, there was no clear sign of when someone was at a stage after they surpassed the ring formation stage. But with the Senses they had and the many investigation magics this world had formed, knowing someone's level was quite easy.
“I didn't expect that she had already reached the Great Magus 8 Loop level. The girl from the Cruise family is quite talented. Last time I remembered that she was just a little devil who was quite crazy.” The man whistled while looking at the aura that Linda Cruise had.
There was also a strange feeling in her Mana. As if something affected it. Do you know what it is? He asked the two people beside him.
'As far as I know, it must be directly related to plants. She probably had good luck when she found a treasure that could help her progress this quickly.'
'He's right. I couldn't believe that a woman who was only 300 years old would achieve such rapid development. Maybe we could... Hmm???' The man on the right looked at Erick. He tapped his finger on the throne provided by Roderick.
'It's not good to peek into people's conversations. Don't repeat it again.' After saying that, he knocked a second time and threw the unknown visitor into their conversation.
“This is really interesting. Were you thrown too, Grey?” Zaratul who was in Erick's shadow withdrew the magic he used after being cast in a conversation between people who had not yet been introduced to this room.
He looked at Gray who was spinning beside him conveying happily that he could still do it. Even though Gray didn't speak, Zaratul understood what the small and cute Orb meant.
“Good… good… you are a good boy. Keep doing that and tap into the mind the way that dares to reveal the identity of our master. Don't let them rest even if they survive this.”
After saying that, Gray became so happy when praised and released even more power. Zaratul who saw this smiled even wider.
“The three people I examined were clean. Did you find any rats hiding here?” Zaratul asked No.1 and No.2
The two answered simultaneously.
“We've got it.”
