I Can See Your Code

I see your code (48)

“… … Does that mean it is right or not?”

“Not both.”

The benevolent figure from before told Navid, who had a frown on his face, as to where he had gone.

“There is no reason for me to answer the question if I know what it is.”

“… … Heh heh, I guess you only heard the rumors halfway through.”

Navid shook her head and closed the book.

“To refuse an answer means death. And in a very painful way.”

“Then let’s kill him.”

I opened my arms wide to signify not to rebel. Navid raised her eyes and raised her weapon.

“You won’t regret it?”

“You talk too much to a man who is about to die.”

I smiled and waved my arms, and Navid stared at me for a long time, then sighed and put down his weapon.

“… … How did you know?”

“Didn’t you say that you are a god of visitors?”

It is a name that the general public will not know and will not recognize, but there was an answer.

“It is usually the landlord, not the visitor, who asks questions before entering the house.”

However, the real question is that the priest of Amon, the self-proclaimed deity of visitors, is clearly the main guest. And Amon does not tolerate such a situation.

To the extent of wanting to correct it, even by killing its owner.

[Have you ever harmed your life?]

[If it hurts, is there a reason]

[Are there plans to harm in the future?]

Those questions that seem to have something to do with it don’t really mean anything.

The act of giving an answer, whether positive or negative, is only important.

Ordinary people would be puzzled and come up with these thoughts when a follower of Amon, known as the god of assassins, comes and asks such a question.

Does life include the life of a worm, whether it tests one’s own morality, or tests honesty, and so on. When these thoughts go downhill, you don’t come to the point that there is no reason to answer them.

A narrative trick that cleverly uses the public perception.

I don’t know who came up with the setting, but one of the real heads was well written.

Navid opened her mouth with a surprised expression.

“… … Did you even think of that with that short bird?”

“It wasn’t a very short time. You have to talk a little bit.”

“It is only one verse of doctrine that a master can only be killed if he fails to rule. Did you not think I could break it?”

I haven’t tried

It was me who made the character sheet for Navid.

fanaticism, blindness. Although it may be the case with other Amon cults, Navid will never break the doctrine.

“How can a Shinto break the teachings of God? Amon will be watching.”

“There are more people like that in the world than you think. I could be one of them.”

“So, you are one of them?”

Navid shook his head with a bitter expression.

“I… … I am not that kind of person.”

“Then it won’t be a problem.”

“no. There is still one thing left.”

“Anything left?”

“I haven’t been officially invited yet. Strictly speaking, you are in an ambiguous state as the owner of the house.”

Navid said as he raised the weapon he had put down.

Si X Rum.

“… … I’m officially inviting you. But where are you going to get that damn book? Just looking at it makes me feel dirty.”

“Is it a recommendation?”

“It’s an order as a landlord.”

“If not, I can’t help it. Accept it.”

Navid put the book down and pretended to come in.

No, are you really coming? I thought I would go back if I left the book behind.

“… … Do you have any work?”

“It was my job to kill you.”

Make me speechless

“If you decline the invitation now… … .”

“I have to finish my work.”

It’s also pretty easy to say kill.

I pounded the calculator inside. What is the probability of success if you run away with all your power?

“… … .”

0 Froda, damn it.

“It’s a bit difficult to have a shabby person in such a precious place… … .”

“Is it okay if I take it as a sign that I can start working?”

“Why aren’t you coming in soon?”

As soon as he opened the door and avoided himself, Navid walked in calmly. With a carefree expression that I couldn’t have imagined that he was thinking of killing me a while ago.

If I had not known about Amon, he would have killed me with that face.

Just thinking about it made my stomach ache.

“When do you plan to go?”

“I just came in.”

It feels like I’ve seen you for a while.

“It is said that it is too early to break up at any time. If that’s the case anyway, isn’t it one way to break up prematurely?”

“I don’t think so.”

“What do you think is so important? The heart is important.”

“Heh heh, my heart is begging for a meal.”

this isn’t a blank slate

I sighed and went home without saying a word. I just wanted to follow him quietly, but Navid kept talking non-stop.

“Huh. The garden is well kept. Who manages it?”

“I don’t know.”

“Isn’t that your house?”

“As soon as you look at it, it’s organized.”

“If not, who cleans the house?”

“I don’t know.”

“Then the food… … .”

“Inspiration.”

I stopped and looked at Navid.

“If you’re thinking about who the real landlord is, it’s useless, so stop.”

Navid was silent for a moment, then smiled kindly again.

“There was no such intention.”

there is no

Without answering, I moved on. Thinking of you as an old man who can’t be vigilant until the end.

* * *

“I ate well. He doesn’t look like much, but he’s very good at cooking.”

“If you’ve finished eating, stop.”

“Don’t rush too much. I was just about to get up.”

Navid rose from his seat and continued.

“But you don’t have anything to ask me?”

“No.”

I just want to go.

Navid tilted her head with a puzzled look.

“Aren’t you curious about the person who commissioned it?”

“I’m sure you won’t even tell me if you ask, so why would I make fun of my tongue with a sore mouth?”

After all, there is only one person like that. I didn’t have to add anything.

He’s pretending to be friendly at first glance, but he’s definitely my enemy.

You can tell by the look in your eyes.

Eyes looking for prey.

He must have been imagining to rip off my limbs and offer them as a sacrifice.

“Hmm! You know a lot about Amonism, but aren’t you really a Christian?”

“I have no religion. I have no intention of entering a corrupted religion.”

“… … A perverted religion?”

Navid frowned as she put on her clothes and was getting ready to go out.

“Isn’t that supposed to mean Amonism?”

“Why not? Are there any other religious people here?”

When I answered calmly, a vortex of magical power raged in an instant.

The source is, of course, Navid.

Except for Cassia, even with all the people I’ve met so far, I don’t think it’s comparable to that magical power.

Is it really a mid-boss-down force?

But he didn’t tremble.

It’s because I know that Navid can’t touch me when I’ve been formally invited and even finished eating.

This is also the characteristic that distinguishes Amonism from ordinary assassins. If you do your job properly, there is no reason to touch the Shinto as a visitor.

“You’d better cancel that statement. I am not the only one who believes in Amonism. Some of them are not faithful to the doctrine.”

“That doctrine has been corrupted.”

“… … Is the doctrine changed?”

Looking at Navid who muttered with a stiff face, he continued.

“Amon is said to be the god of visitors.”

“… … That’s right.”

“But what about public perception? the assassin god. The god of thieves. No one thinks of the word visitor in Amon.”

“It’s the ignorant people who don’t know anything about Amon… … .”

“That’s what you don’t know.”

Navid spoke quickly before making an angry voice.

“Look at what you guys are doing. As a visitor, I was commissioned and went hunting for the landlord. Everywhere you look, he’s an assassin.”

“Because Amon hates humans who can’t be masters.”

“That’s not to say you use doctrine. I don’t think it’s the visitor’s job to induce the owner not to act as the owner.”

“… … .”

Navid was silent, unable to speak.

I waited silently for a moment.

How to cook rice requires time to steam.

It is more effective to give yourself time to organize your thoughts rather than rushing around now.

When I thought my thoughts were a bit ripe, I slowly opened my mouth.

“Even the Amonism wasn’t like that from the beginning.”

“… … Are you trying to preach about Amonism to me now? For me, who has been in the school for 50 years?”

“I’m telling you because I’ve been with you for 50 years. It must be a fact that you know too.”

It’s not really that long ago that Amon came to be called the god of assassins.

At least 30 years or so?

It is said that only 30 years ago, Amon was called the god of visitors. And 30 years ago was the year when the 14th and current headmaster took office.

“Now, teacher, have you ever thought that it was strange?”

“There is no such thing as blasphemous.”

Having said that, I did not miss the light of doubt that flashed across Navid’s face for a moment.

If I think about it, I’d have started doing more bizarre things lately, so I’d have tried to clear up my suspicions even if I was a fanatic or blind navid.

I opened my mouth, facing Navid’s swaying eyes.

“The current headmaster has never believed in Amon.”

* * *

Looking at the back of Navid as she left, she sighed heavily.

It was f*cked up to meet you, let’s not see each other again!

Still, there are achievements, so it shouldn’t be a meaningless meeting at all.

First of all, he planted seeds of doubt in Navid, one of the key figures of the Amon religion.

According to the original story, they are attached to the axis of evil and do all kinds of bullshit.

And the attack of the Amon religion is also an event related to Byron. It’s also an event that happens at the end of that guy’s part.

I never imagined it would happen even before the start of the main story.

In fact, the only relief I had when I realized the starting point was Layton.

That is where Byron nests.

It’s close to impossible to deal with in the second half, so the sooner you get rid of him, the better.

From that point of view, I thought that the city of Layton, which Byron can defeat before gaining strength, was not a bad option as an option.

Well, except for the standard of living.

Anyway, now I see why Byron has been quiet.

There is only one solution left.

“It’s about time to end it.”

We bumped into each other earlier than expected, and we got into a fight earlier than expected.

No matter how early he is, he is not a guy that can be dealt with with his current specs. Because in the game, you can only clear three A grades when you have to beat them alone.

In terms of difficulty, it would be about the SSS level.

But I’m not afraid.

Because I.

Because I know this world better than anyone else in the world.
