Shelley was currently positioned with other Class 1 Mages in front of the base. The orders were abstract and nobody was allowed to go out... I don't understand the orders, but I can't disobey them. Besides, she felt uncomfortable. It concentrates too much magic in this prime city. I have never felt such a thing before. Even so, Shelley had a vague feeling.

"Hey, what's today's order..."

"Come on, I wonder...."

The wizards around me were talking about it. It's not just Shelley. Other people also feel uncomfortable. There was another concern. There are only Level 2 vs. Mages and Level 1 vs. Mages gathered here. And they're all from the Twilight Force. Strange... I wonder if something happens inside... a situation that only seems like it. But Shelley had to wait here.

Yulia, I wonder what's going on right now.

Shelley hasn't seen Julia since she left him the other day. I'm not particularly anxious. Rationality is just a separate assignment. Though I think so, I feel that the current situation and the current situation of Julia are not intertwined. The thought that should be called Shelley's hunch became a reality after sorrow.

I was ordered to come to the conference room at the base today. But the mystery is that they haven't given us an overview. I don't have any advance information about going to dusk or meeting someone. Honestly, this has never happened before. That said, I was summoned to the mystery. [M] But just because I'm creepy here, I can't let you go.

And I opened the door to the conference room.

"... eh?

There were... superior versus magicians. The people I've been with, all of them...? No, Ellie's not here. Anyway, it's unusual that almost all of the Premium Versus Mages are gathered.

"Now, Julia, I want you to sit down. I'll start the meeting right away."

That's how I get to my seat. [M] Then I talked to the senpai next door.

"Senpai, why are you here?"

"I haven't heard the outline yet... well, it doesn't look good. And I hear you've figured it out. Otherwise, this convocation is impossible."

"Is that so...?"

I understand a lot. Did you find out about the traitor? And I wondered if it would be good for the Premium Warlock to gather again in one room like this. As before, we could all be trapped in the border. Aren't you a little too alarmed?

But it will end in worries.

"Well, gentlemen of the Premium Warlock. Thank you for accepting my sudden summons. In addition, in the case of the boundary of the example, the analysis has already been completed. It's magic that was used hundreds of years ago, but it takes a lot of time to activate. Yes... time in years. The amount of magic is the same, but it is still quite difficult to construct the magic form. There is already a way to counter it. So, this time, we've been gathered again... but that's not the point."

Silas' gaze sharpened. And at the next moment, the words that came out were incredible.

"... Premium vs. Wizard, Ellie, 10th in the line, has been killed. Cause of death was hemorrhagic shock. No signs of resistance, a knife to the heart. He died a few minutes later. It's now being autopsied for further cause of death."

"Nh...!!?

It's not just me. Other Premium vs. Mages shout with surprise.

"Hey hey, Cyrus... are you kidding me? Ellie was certainly the main researcher, but he was quite capable. Combat skills aren't low either. That's a stab in the heart without resisting? Is that stupid?

"Roy... this is true. And the killer has been identified."

I didn't speak up next time. The fact that the killer has already been identified... means we have a clue to the traitor... but I was honestly not happy. Ellie's dead? I just spoke a few days ago. [M] I met Ellie for a short time, but I still admired her. [M] I was just impressed by the posture of studying twilight. That's why I told you everything I could. I'm sure Ellie would solve this twilight mystery... even though I thought so... was he killed? That's so stupid...

Grip your fist with all your strength. I was already about to get over it with anger. [M] Did you trigger that raid and kill another Premium Warlock? I wasn't particularly alarmed. But it's only about yourself, about self-defense. Intelligence and other Premium Opponents are on the move, so there's nothing I can do about it... I thought so, but there's no way this could be tolerated.

However, the situation was going in the worst direction behind such an idea.

"Julia... you're a suspect in Ellie's murder. The time of Ellie's entry into the lab and the time of his murder. Besides, other researchers are looking at you... Can you tell me what you're talking about?

"... eh?
