— Southern District, Dynoseus, Narcius Kingdom, 1000 HB
The day was getting darker and the sun was already on the western horizon, dimming the still blue sky.
While Rhea and the Youth were seen walking together after leaving the Ruins of Nivuerde.
They arrived at an inn, a little far from the entrance, not allowing them to part for the day.
“To be here only. Thank you for delivering me.”
“Not to think about. Then I go first.” said the young man.
“Ya, be careful.” Rhea waved her hand at the young man.
The young man then went from there towards a direction unknown to Rhea, while he entered the inn.
The young man, who was still on the road to a familiar residence — read House of Clever Iron, and when entering it, when entering it, there are a lot of weapons and adventure equipment that have just been forged — House of the Iron Marker Tetzell.
“Finally I arrived too.” said the young man relieved.
Then the young man opened his hood. He looked like a fifteen-year-old teenager, who looked rather innocent. With his black hair — it was Shu Hizashi, an adventurer sent from another world as Bookmagus.
He knocked on the door and called Tetzell, the owner of the house.
“Uncle, are you inside? It's me, Hizashi.” he said,
Then Tetzell opened the door of his house, and how surprised he was to welcome Hizashi. His appearance still remained as usual, like a burly yet relaxed person. He was like someone who hadn't seen him in a long time.
“Hizashi! Long time ago You!” he said with a laugh while holding Hizashi's shoulder.
“.. Yes, so..”
“Come in, you must be exhausted right?” Tetzell.
Tetzell then stepped into his house first. When Hizashi came in, he heard a voice.
“Beware.”
“ ? ” Hizashi then turned to the origin of the voice, right behind him.
A person with a cloak and hood that is all dark, his face is not visible, even the existence is very creepy — Ghost Walk — is known that is his nickname.
“You, the Walking Ghost that the guy was rumored to be?” ask Hizashi.
— In the previous time, in a settlement.
Hizashi and Rhea were at that time in the market, with a closed appearance so that he was not known. Seen some adventurers who were in the area, more precisely in an open shop.
"Oi, have you heard?”
“.. About what?”
“Host Figure Walk.”
“That often runs at that night, the appearance is all black is not it?”
Hizashi overhears the conversation, but Rhea is waiting for him.
“What's up?"
“.. Ah, naw. Come on.” said Hizashi.
— At least that's how Hizashi found out about the existence of Walking Ghosts. From the adventurers whispering there.
And this time, Hizashi was dealing with the figure being talked about. Eve existed according to what the people said that she would not appear if she did not want to meet someone.
He was behind Hizashi. His face is invisible, bandaged and blocked by a dark-colored hood that looks shabby and not worth using — at least as decent as Hizashi's.
“So, what do you want to come here?” ask Hizashi. “I'm sure you don't show up when you don't want to see them.”
“...” the person is silent only.
The atmosphere was silent even until the wind had blown, not a single one of them then took the initiative to open each of his mouths. They just face each other and look sharp.
“.. Monster's Domain.” said the guy sayu.
“Monster's Domain? What is it?” ask Hizashi.
“An event for adventurers. Where you must adventure throughout the Main Peninsula and overcome the monster invasion.”
“Hm? It looks interesting.” said Hizashi who has not decided whether he came or not.
“But.”
“ ? ” Hizashi confusion.
“There's one wish of mine. I want you to come, to carry out this mission.” said the man.
“Mission?”
***
Hizashi and the Walking Ghost then went towards a passageway where they could both speak without the intervention or interference of any party resulting in the leaking of information into the wrong hands. They are in the Western District — place where there are not many settlements or high-rise buildings there.
“So you want me to join this Monster's Domain event on someone's orders?”
“Ya.” replied Ghost is short.
“I still don't understand, what exactly is this event?”
The ghost held his own chin, a sign that he was thinking. He did not want to give a lie to Hizashi, but the full extent of this mission must be kept secret, at the request of his superiors to him.
It was getting dark and the moon was rising.
And the moon shone upon them in the solitude of the hallway.
“Monster's Domain, Narcius Destroyer Event.” Ghost said quietly.
