Capítulo 73: CHAPTER 53
Oh, my. The repayment of Pandora's owner's favor did not end here.
After giving me snacks that would come out on the open market soon, he declared that he would also give me 10% of the profits that came from those same snacks.
He even handed me a note with the location of his residence on it, followed with.
"- If there's anything you want or are looking for, please let me know and we'll visit you anytime. Please contact us often."
The owner of Pandora's famous store, who was always busy, would be bringing the goods himself.
'Did the clerks freeze in disbelief over the unprecedented exceptional treatment?'
I could see Geppel opening his mouth at the same time as I finished my recollection.
"So, what is this favor you want from me?" Geppel quickly asked.
When I first spoke to Geppel, I didn't elaborate on the request. He insisted on going to the store first.
In other words, that person said yes without even knowing what the favor in detail was.
'I don't know if I should call it rash, frivolous, or should I say quite bold?'
I had no intention of dragging down the conversation, so I decided to get to the point immediately.
"Let me use the second library."
"Yes, library… What? Books?"
He looked startled by the favor.
'Did you think I would ask for something bigger?'
Well, considering Geppel's ability, he may have thought I would require a great healing power from him.
Geppel kept the silence going for a few minutes, then he requested further explanation.
I responded simply. "There are books I want to find in the library."
"The book I want to find… Yes! Yes, I got it. I'll give you permission."
Huh? I blinked my eyes in surprise.
'Was this something you could've allowed so easily?'
The temple's main documents must be there.
After reading the expressionless look on my face, Geppel coughed in vain.
"In principle, it's tricky and difficult, but I'm keeping my words since I promised you."
'What? Did you fell so hard over snacks?'
"Then I'll write down the permit later today, so you can use the library anytime. On another note, I have a personal question, what are you looking for there?"
I stared at him slowly at Geppel's question, and he added.
"Furthermore, since it's a personal question, you don't have to answer it, but after spending some time with you, you don't seem like a fool that would fall for a man like Doman Woodhill."
It was simple, I was not Riddel Spencer.
I replied with a grin at his benevolent speech. "They say that love blurs a person's judgment. That's why people who fall in love often become fools or make mistakes. You can think of me as similar to them."
I sighed carefully so that it didn't feel like I recited a script from a play before I spoke.
"But maybe I'll make the same mistake again."
"In short, it was a mistake to love Doman. But what you're saying is that you could repeat the stupid mistake of loving him again and again, right?"
As expected, Geppel understood exactly what I was saying. He tilted his head as if he didn't understand, but I couldn't help it.
When Riddel returned to her body, she would want to seek him out first.
'Then it may seem to others that Riddel has fallen for Doman again.'
Just in case the original Riddel returns, I had to say something without any sense of contention.
I cut the conversation short before Geppel could ask me anything else.
"Don't ask me why I repeat such foolish mistakes. There's no rationality in matters of love."
Geppel, who understood my intention not to purse the interrogation further, quickly added. "I'm sorry to hear that."
However, he nodded as if he was convinced.
"Okay, I won't ask you if you want. So? Library?
"I want to go to the library and search for books about curses."
"Curses?"
He took a moment to ask back. When he opened his eyes wide to see if anything had changed, he quickly queried.
"You're not trying to break Kyle's curse, are you?"
Yes, it was exactly what I was trying to do.
He shook his head as I smiled with all my radiant positivity.
"It's impossible. His curse can't be solved."
"Why are you so determined? Why are you so sure?"
"It's not a curse that can be broken at this level. Even a genius can't solve it. It's impossible to cleanse the body at this point. So, give up now. Don't try to do useless things."
Curse usually contained black magic. Therefore, it was possible for the faithful to get rid of the curse by using a purification ability.
Hence, if it was really impossible for Geppel, who had the best credibility on the continent, he didn't mention it lightly.
However…
"What if you don't release the curse, what if Kyle dies?"
It wasn't something that came out unintentionally. As for me, I pretended to be calm while hiding my cautiousness.
It was because Geppel decided that he could say it.
I thought he didn't hate Kyle.
'No, rather.'
Geppel was fond of Kyle.
You could tell by his attitude and eyes.
Perhaps it was just a feeling of comradeship for Kyle that developed from going through the war together.
And this guy there thinks I'm unique.
'You can say this, but it won't.'
The response was highly predictable, but maybe we can get new information.
After a while, as expected, Geppel raised his nose in the air and asked me.
"Riddel Spencer. Don't you know who I am?"
"Of course, I do."
Geppel was the High Priest and the master of treatment that has turned the existing medical community upside down.
"But you know what you're saying?"
It was natural for Geppel to be amazing. It was like a top-notch doctor suddenly showed up in front of a medical doctor and said your treatment was wrong.
"Ha, I've been too lazy to write a paper these days."
Geppel, muttering like a self, looked at me and recited.
"I'll cut it short. Kyle's curse and death are irrelevant, and what you're saying is just a probability. In that sense, everyone has the chance of dying."
Geppel was kind enough to answer me one by one.
"But what if…"
For the first time, he put his foot down.
"If that's true and you can prove it, I'll help you as much as I can."
It was quite a heavy remark.
'Proof…'
I agonized for a moment. In fact, it was nothing to worry about. This was a golden opportunity for my help force to increase.
My thoughts were organized, and I took a chance.
"High Priest."
"I'm not sure what you are doing? Just call me Geppel."
"Yes, Geppel. Aren't you wondering how I found your secret space and the location of Pandora's store?"
'What an honest man he is.'
I explained the situation without delay. In the same vein as I did to Sejan. Geppel, who listened to my story for a while, blinked in confusion.
"So you have the ability to dream about the past and the future. And that's how you found me? Oh, that's a ridiculous ability."
Geppel stopped talking to reinforce the impression that he couldn't believe me. The results of me saying such things were difficult for him to understand, it was different from Kyle's case.
Perhaps the idea was too hard to comprehend for Geppel as he was rubbing his forehead, said again.
"Yes, if that ability is true as you say, how can you tell me this easily? What if I tell someone else about it?"
"I'm not worried about that. You're someone who has their own beliefs and doesn't go anywhere to talk about it."
When I dismissed his provocation in a few simple words, he burst into a grin.
"You've… you've figured me out in a very short time…"
It was because you were as simple as I had ever made among the characters I created.
Geppel continued to speak.
"I'll take your word for now. But it's a little too bad to relate Kyle's curse to his death. What should I say? I don't have anything definitive about the subject."
Well, this was a bit cheap, but I understood.
The ability to dream was a rare ability that had never been seen in the Empire. A certain amount of doubt was reasonable.
As I nodded as if I understood his doubts, Geppel slightly changed the subject.
"By the way, you don't have much luck with men."
I just laughed. I didn't really have anything to say.
While one of them was a playboy, the other was a cursed dragon. As far as I was concerned, I didn't create this character to be blessed with men.
"So, Riddel Spencer. You're gonna…"
Knock, knock.
Just as Geppel was going to continue, someone knocked on the office doors.
"Who is it? Didn't you hear I was talking to someone?"
A moment of silence came when Geppel uttered an irritating voice to the person outside the door.
"Well, that's… I know it, but it's urgent…"
The man outside seemed to have stumbled on his way, but the urgency in his voice could still be heard.
Geppel's expression became serious at once, as if he could feel something intuitively in that tone.
Geppel stood up and asked the question. "Do you have to go back?"
