Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

A few days later, Linos received a letter. The sender was King Nefa II of Labuso.

The letter stated that many lives had been lost in the city of Kumoha, and that it was limited to those who drank water from a specific well. It was highly probable that someone had arbitrarily thrown poison into that well, and that the name of the poison was said to be Soleil.

In the letter, King Nefertah II immediately forbade the use of water from the well in Qumoha and requested that researchers from the University of Agartha be dispatched as soon as possible to identify the poison, since the well was in a state of so-called on-site preservation.

As soon as Linos finished reading the letter, he gathered all the main people and held an emergency meeting.

"What in the world is this poison?　Massacring people who had nothing to do with it ...... is unacceptable."

Rico was the first to open his mouth. She looked around at all the faces and encouraged each one to speak.

"Hmmm. So far, I don't have such a bad feeling about it. ......"

Sadie is looking up to the heavens with her arms folded.

"I'll go."

Suddenly, May opened her mouth. Her eyes were filled with a dignified light.

"From what I have read in King Nefa's letter, this is very similar to what happened in the Matograph Empire," she said.

"Matograph?　Ah."

Linos remembered. Just a month or so ago, there had been reports of the sudden death of many people in a small town in the Matograph Empire. At that time, there had been no request for such a report, so we did not take any action.

Incidentally, it was not unusual for many people to die suddenly in this world. There were cases of sudden outbreaks of powerful epidemics, and there were also cases of powerful poisonous demons causing such catastrophes. Nefa II, however, was convinced that this case did not fall into any of those categories, but was clearly a mass murder committed arbitrarily by human hands.

"Most poisons cause some discomfort in the mouth. Especially the more toxic they are, the stronger the tendency.

"But sister, the liver of anisakis fish is very poisonous, but it tastes sweet.

It was Ruara who opened her mouth. Ferris, who is sitting next to her, nods at her words.

"We Kulurkan are fine, but that poison is so powerful that it can kill even high-ranked demons, isn't it?

May nodded her head in agreement.

It is true that there are such poisons. But this time, according to the letter from Nefa, people who drank the water fell down in a flurry. The symptoms of Anisakis venom appear about two hours after ingestion. The toxicity of Anisakis venom in the Mato grass empire and that in the spider mussels is not known until a closer look is made, but I think it is safe to assume that the toxicity is quite high. I think that some people might spit it out if it is so poisonous. ....... I cannot read such a thing from this letter. First of all, we need to visit the site and examine the composition of the poison. Besides ......"

"Ah, the daughter of King Nefa is studying at the University of Agartha, is she not?"

"Yes. Yes, the master is right. Of course that's part of it, but what I'm curious about is the name of that poison: ......."

"Soleil," huh?

All eyes are on Soleil. It is not that they are suspicious of her. It was just a coincidence, but everyone was wondering why her name was mentioned, of all people.

Soleil, perhaps sensing the mood of the group, slowly opens her mouth.

"Lady Mei, I will accompany you to Kumoha.

"Are you going too, Soleil?　No, not really. ......"

No, sir. No. We want you to go. There is a possibility that Siljus is involved.

"Cyrus?　Why?"

"I'm sure it's someone who has a grudge against me."

"A grudge against Soleil?　Huh?

I screamed out in a crazy voice. In the village of Silures, Soleil is held in high esteem by everyone. Not to mention her ability to make a contract with the Lord Shenlong, though she is erotic in appearance, she is also very good at taking care of her juniors, and I had never seen anyone say a bad thing about her.

"Do you have any idea who she is?"

Soleil gave a cute smile to Linos' question. Linos, perhaps sensing something, did not ask her any more questions.

"Okay. Then I will accept King Neferta's request. May, I'm sorry, but I need you to leave for Kumoha immediately. I'll leave it to you to choose who to take with you. The rest is ...... Soleil. You're coming with me. Needless to say, please do not overdo it. If you feel any danger, retreat immediately. Leave the matters of coordination between countries to us. If push comes to shove, I will leave. Is that clear?

At Linos' words, everyone bowed their heads.

The first time I saw a group of people in the same room, they all bowed their heads.

May acted quickly. She finished her selection that day and entered Kumoha in secret, accompanied by one of her own poison researchers and her secretary, Sertoit.

May and his team, dressed like sorcerers and wearing hoods over their eyes, surveyed the city.

The city of Qumoha was as deserted and unpopular as if it were in ruins. The water supply was cut off. It was quite conceivable that people would abandon the city and evacuate.

In the city, there were only a few soldiers who seemed to be guarding the city. They were standing around the wells and watching to make sure that no one approached the wells.

"......This doesn't make much sense. Let's come back, Ms. Mei.

A man's voice came from behind May. The voice belonged to a man named Terashi. He was still young, but he specialized in the study of poisons and was considered the most knowledgeable man in Agartha University. He looked around the area and continued to speak.

There is hardly a soul in sight. Look, the soldiers are glancing at us. They are obviously suspicious. If we are not careful, we could be captured. Let's go back to Agartha.

At his words, May opens her mouth to squeeze out a few words.

"You should come back to ....... The poison's effect may wear off,......."

It's true, but right now, Mei-sama's body is the most important thing. This is ......."

"I think you should try it."

Suddenly, Serloitte opened her mouth. She strode off and stood in front of the soldiers guarding the well.

"I would like to have a drink of ...... water, please."

The soldier looked at Serloitte as if he were licking his lips, but then, with a stern look on his face, he slowly opened his mouth.

"No."

"......Why, would, or?"

"They say this well is poisoned. If you drink it, you will die."

"Yes. Is that so?"

The dialogue was delivered in a barbed delivery with no intonation at all. Terashi looks at her with concern.

"Do you mind if I take a look at the water?"

At Serloitte's question, the soldier looked annoyed, but then he picked up a fishing bottle that was nearby and threw it into the well with great force. Then he slowly pulled it up and thrust it forward and showed it to Serloitte.

"Look! It's just plain water, isn't it?　But it's poison. Don't drink it by mistake.

At that moment, Cerulloito quickly put his hand inside the fishing bottle. The soldier looked surprised and threw the bottle into the well.

"Idiot!　Don't touch it!　You're going to die!"

"...... excuse me."

Serloitte strode back to May and the others.

"I got the sample."

In her hand she held a small glass container, which contained a clear liquid .......
