curse the one who bought it - Well, it's okay, I don't have much space at home for things anyway," the journalist replied without being upset. - Well, I'll go on with my work. Thank you for your help and for the figurine.
I'm going to the library. isn't this Mazard? I think there was something in one building before, right?
did you get the figurine on sale? I don't keep track of my finances...

- Hello. Do you need help?
- Good afternoon. Yes. What do you think about the undead threat and the possible war that the king recently announced? I am conducting a survey of the residents on behalf of the guild, and any opinion would be helpful, - the Sugarian clarified. - Perhaps something similar happened in the past, and you even have books on this topic, or simply about the undead, that you have read.
Well, then Erika goes home, checks the mailbox, inspects the house, and leaves the purchased figurines. If everything is okay, she goes to the guild and looks for Mysti or someone to whom she can submit the "report."
The house is fine; no one has written anything bad on the walls, and the mailbox is empty. At the guild headquarters, neither Mysti nor any of the other miracle workers were present; one of the thirty sorcerers, Neoria, was in charge. It was to her that the report on the assignment could be submitted.
- Your Holiness. I am glad to see you in good health, - he said, showing all possible respect, even before he was formally informed of the regulations. - I would like to offer a prayer to the goddess.
- Right on time. - Fira's unemotional voice greeted Genza. - According to my calculations, you should have arrived at the Temple and addressed the goddess right now. Follow me. The priestess leads the visitor to the statue of Shiris, a place he has been at least once, but perhaps more.

- I think the government knows best what to do with all this. My job now is to sort books, and then I will pack my things and sail home. What do you think?
The higher-ups in the palace are dealing with state affairs with the ruler...
Erica provides Neoria with the following report:
Royal Palace - a strong magical reaction of the most ordinary type Mazzard - no magical reaction detected. Lunarian Community - both ordinary magical energy and cursed energy were found in the head's house. She didn't have time to check the other houses: for some unknown reason, the head of the community threw her out of the community with some unknown spell and wouldn't let her back in without explanation. Being alone, she didn't argue with the local guards. Perhaps, for additional "investigation" (if required), it would be better to "send" a special inspection team of more serious mages. "Three Questions" Shop - magical energy was detected, both divine and cursed. Kuromod - no traces of magic. And neither is the shop itself... Temples of Nanaya and Nammu Ai - divine energy was detected Market - a barely noticeable magical trace was detected Alastia's Studio - a slight presence of cursed energy was detected "Taste on the Edge" Restaurant - no magical reaction detected Capital Administration - a magical trace is present Capital Hospital - no magical or supernatural traces were detected Bulletin Board - no traces of magic Craftsmen's Guild - no traces of magic Adventurers' Guild - no magic detected Church of Anuzish - divine reaction University - cursed energy was detected Community of Theologians - a slight divine trace was detected
The university was inspected on <date and time of inspection>. During the inspection, a young man (presumably a student) was in the university and talking to some guard, and he "reeked" of a curse. Being alone, she didn't risk getting involved with this guy, but decided to simply record this fact. Perhaps, for additional "investigation" (if required), it would be better to "send" a special inspection team of more serious mages. It will not be difficult to find this guy at the time indicated above. She is ready to identify both the guy and the guard he was talking to. She suspects that he is a very dangerous type.
Favorable Wind - no magic detected Gura Gura - no magic detected Library - a little bit of everything: magic, curses, divinity. Transportation Station - no magic detected
Ничто не возникает из ничего и ничто не пропадает бесследно. Если где-то чего-то убудет, то в другом месте добавится. (Закон сохранения).
- Okay, let's do this: if you ever write your autobiography, I promise to buy it for 500 rem. It will be an extra activity for you and a goal to strive for.
They go back inside the store, and Naoya shows him a discount book with specific entries.
- Write something in it, and I'll give you a 100 rem discount.
—Heh, deal! —the scholar chuckled. —Maybe my writing career will start with the first buyer.
He flips to a new page in the book, hesitates for a moment, and makes a quick sketch:
""
Then, to Alastia's studio.
- I think the government knows best what to do with all this. My job right now is to move books around, and then I'll pack my things and sail home. What do you think?
- Considering the different levels of information available to ordinary citizens and the government, it's hard to disagree with your statement, - commented Ferrus, writing down two short sentences. - As for me, I have nowhere to sail to, so I'll think about the rest later, Miss... May I have your name?
Bowing before the statue, the acolyte lets a short monologue flow through him, directly into the divine realm; his face, with his eyes closed, displays various emotions at different moments, as if he were saying it aloud:
"Oh, Shiri, I... hope you don't mind this approach? My friend said that you might like it, so I thought I'd try. So, you know what I have done with my own hands and under what circumstances. You know all my possible excuses, but they don't change the essence - it was done. I cannot say when and how, but I intend to get to the bottom of the truth and bring the guilty - and those besides myself - to justice. I am still sure that this was not my own doing; you surely know why, because you see me through and through. I know that this is not in your nature, but still, let me ask you to grant peace to Kerria's soul, if possible. She is innocent, and her fate should have unfolded differently. At least, that's how I see it. Maybe someday I will meet her again and apologize, but until then, I will have to bear the burden of this mistake on my shoulders. Well, that's fine; I am ready for it. In general, I will try to fulfill the mission that I have been entrusted with and finish my own business. I might even ask you for a blessing for these things, but after what happened, it doesn't feel right. Let's do it this way - I will show you what a person who has been put in these circumstances is capable of, and then we'll see where it leads us. That's it. That's probably all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening, and for all your help."
Having finished with this, he returns to the world of the living.
- What calculations are you talking about? Do you have some special formula for parishioners, your holiness? By the way, are there any paintings left for sale?
- Considering the varying levels of awareness among ordinary citizens and the government, it's hard to disagree with your statement, - commented Ferrus, writing down two short sentences. - As for me, I have nowhere to go, so I'll think about the rest later, Miss... May I have your name?
—Hello! —he repeated, almost in a Ziminian accent, but remembering the recent events, he immediately stopped mid-sentence. —And here I am, looking for something new for the house; I thought I'd stop by and see what you've added to the shelves. ...Hmm, I see, business is booming, almost nothing is left? —he glances at the shelves with crossed-out items.
Neoria carefully familiarizes herself with the contents of Erica's report, jotting down notes in some journal and commenting on what she reads.Author

Lunarian Community - in the head's house, both ordinary magical energy and cursed energy were detected. In other houses I didn't manage to detect anything: the head of the community, for unknown reasons, threw me out of the community with some unknown spell and wouldn't let me back in without explanation. Being alone, I didn't argue with the local guards. Perhaps, for additional "inspection" (if such is required), it would be better to "dispatch" a special inspection team of more serious mages.

The university inspection was conducted at <date and time of inspection>. During the inspection, a certain young man (presumably a student) was present at the university, talking to some guard, and he was "reeking" of a curse. Being alone, I didn't risk getting involved with this type, and decided to simply record this fact. Perhaps, for additional "inspection" (if such is required), it would be better to "dispatch" a special inspection team of more serious mages. Finding this guy at the aforementioned time won't be difficult. I am ready to identify both the young man himself and the guard he was talking to. I suspect this is a very dangerous individual.

Having finished with this matter, returns to the world of the living. - By what kind of calculations? Do you have some special formula for parishioners, Your Holiness? By the way, are there any paintings left for sale?
- Yes. Based on behavior, words, appearance, and past patterns, one can predict the next visit in advance. The paintings have all been bought up already.

—Zdrastvuite! —he repeated in the Zimivian manner, but remembering recent events, immediately cut himself off mid-phrase. —And here I am, walking around, picking out a new addition for the house; thought I'd drop by and see what's been attached under the shelf thanks to your efforts... Hm, I see business is thriving, almost nothing left? —casts his gaze over the shelves with crossed-out goods.
- Da. Mnogo posetitelei v poslednee vremia. Navernoe eto ot straha proishodiashego.
