Richter, where are you?

"Richto, where are you?

　Dorothy, Iris and Tise were not used to shouting.
　The three of them were searching for Richto, frustrated that they could not speak as loudly as they wanted.

"Mr. Richt, ......, where are you?

"Did you find anything about Dorothy's spirit?

"No, sir. It's going to take a while.

　I've been calling out for more than ten minutes, but there is no sign of Richt's voice.
　There was no response from Dorothy's spirit, either.

　She wouldn't have come all the way to the human world to capture him and leave him in a place where he could be easily reclaimed.
　There is a possibility that the spirits of the dead are useless because of the warding that obstructs the search.

"Sister, something's coming.

　Iris twitched her ears.
　It's a good idea to keep your eyes and ears open.

　Judging from the sounds she was hearing, it seemed that several insects were coming at her at once.
　Since it was a kind of wingbeat that I had never heard before, I could not instantly come up with a countermeasure.

　All we know for sure at this point is that they are definitely the enemy.

"You're going to use it, Iris?

"Yeah. Just right.

　When Tise hears the reply, she takes Dorothy's hand and runs away from Iris.

　She ran as fast as she could, as if she were facing a demon king.
　Dorothy's legs can barely keep up with her.

"T, Tise?

I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy. I'm sorry, Dorothy. I think Iris is using a dangerous fairy.

"Oh, I see. ......

　You can understand how dangerous it is just by looking at Tise's condition, even though the description of the dangerous fairy was rather vague.

　At the very least, you should be able to evacuate to a position where you won't be 100% involved.
　Dorothy can only watch and wait.

"--!　The insects are drifting towards us!

　As if passing next to Iris, an insect comes wandering in.
　It looks a little strange, but it must be trying to attack them.

　If it was just the one that Iris had failed to hunt, Dorothy could still handle it.
　As she grabbed her wand, Tise next to her put her hand on Dorothy's shoulder.

"No, Iris has already--

What?

　Tise was right.
　The insect did not look at the two of them, but flew past them as if it was about to fall.

　What the hell just happened?
　While Dorothy was thinking, Iris approached with the insects that were supposed to be her enemies.

"Iris, why are these insects--

"I'm temporarily mesmerized right now. I thought it would be unbearable to use a [charm] fairy, but it seems ...... to be okay.

　And then--" adds Iris.

I'm sending the bugs to Mr. Richt. Maybe this will help us find him.

　Dorothy turns to hear this.
　These insects, which look like they're about to die, are the guideposts for finding Richt.

　The three of them followed her, praying that they wouldn't run out of energy along the way.
　The three of them had no choice but to follow it.
