Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

On the other side, listening to the conversation between Fujimaru Ritsuka and Kabul, Kikuro gradually came back to his senses. Although there were still many things he couldn't understand and doubted, he soon found a problem that he was very concerned about.

"…I also want to ask a question."

So he slowly raised his hand, attracted the attention of several people, and asked Laos:

"Why did the mad magician capture Falin?"

"—!"

After these words were spoken, Kabul's attention returned to the siblings Laos and Falin.

Although this question is not as interesting as the situation of the crazy magician that he is most concerned about, it is indeed equally intriguing. If you think about it for a while, you will find it very strange. Why would the Lord of the Maze suddenly show up to capture someone who has just been resurrected?

At the same time, he immediately noticed that the atmosphere in the room had changed slightly.

"..."

Falin looked at her brother. Laos did not answer the question immediately, but fell into thought.

The question raised by Julang undoubtedly involves how Faline was resurrected, which is the part about ancient magic, and is the core of the secret that Malucel wants them to keep.

But Julang is also a member of their team and one of his most trusted companions, and he also likes Falin... It should be okay to tell him, right?

Thinking of this, he finally made a decision and turned to Kabul and said:

"I'm sorry, we want to talk to Julang alone about this."

"I won't interrupt."

Kabul smiled in understanding, but he felt even more curious. He cooperated and left the room while thinking about how to find out the news.

"Then we'll go out first."

As Laos's former teammate, Kikuro, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others also chose to trust his judgment. They waved to Farin and left the room with Kabul, closing the door to block out the sound.

Mazuki, dressed as a ninja, followed Wuhe's instructions and leaned against the wall in the corner of the bedroom to watch over him. Kabul, who had come out, stood beside him and waited, showing him a friendly smile.

However, the other party didn't seem to buy it. Instead, he distanced himself from him in disgust.

"--Um?"

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka sniffed and suddenly smelled a familiar smell, so he said to Kabul:

"I'll go check out the kitchen first."

"Okay, I have something else to ask Mr. Laos, so I won't go over."

After saying goodbye to each other, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu curiously came to the kitchen. Looking at the food that Maizuru was making and placed at hand, Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and said:

“It’s miso soup after all!”

Not only miso soup, Maizuru is making rice balls, but there are also grilled fish fillets and pickled vegetables. It is the classic Japanese cuisine of "one soup and three dishes".

"Ritsuka, have you ever heard of oriental cuisine?"

Hearing this, Sensi, who was helping to make tea, was a little surprised. Chilchak, who was in charge of grilling fish, sighed:

"Just by hearing the name, you should know that Ms. Ritsuka is also from the Eastern Islands, right?"

"Could it be that you are from the island too?"

“But they don’t look alike.”

"Maybe one of the parents is from an outlying island..."

The other members of Kikuro's team also looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka curiously and started to chatter about it. At this time, Maizuru gently scolded them:

"Okay, do your own thing first."

"Yes!"

Then, Maizuru picked up the dish that had been prepared for one person and prepared to bring it to Kikuro, while Morinishi followed closely behind with tea.

When passing by Fujimaru Ritsuka, Maizuru paused for a moment and said to her:

"Although we just met by chance, since we are from the same hometown, please enjoy the cuisine of your hometown."

"Well, thank you."

Seeing that the other party was preparing to rush to the bedroom in a hurry, Fujimaru Ritsuka hurriedly reminded:

"Mr. Kikuro is talking to Laos about something private!"

"I'll pay attention."

"Ok?"

After hearing what Fujimaru Ritsuka said, Chilchak suddenly felt something was wrong, so he quickly came to them and whispered:

"What are they talking about, Laos?" Mash replied in a low voice:

"That's what happened to Miss Falin."

"Varied--!"

Chilchak suddenly raised his voice, but quickly lowered it after reacting, but his face still had an intense and indescribable expression.

Does that bastard know what he's doing?!

He was very frantic in his heart, but then he thought of something and tried to comfort himself:

However, since Falin is there, it shouldn't be a big problem, right?

“Master——?!”

However, the next moment, Wu He's scream broke the silence in the house. Chilchak's ominous premonition completely broke out, and he hurriedly ran towards the bedroom.

Kabulmazumi stood at the door and in the bedroom, he saw that Julang, who had just woken up, had fallen into coma again for some reason.

Wuzuru called out to them anxiously, and then, with a sharp gaze towards the Laos siblings, she asked:

"What on earth is going on? Why did the young master faint again?!"

Falin said apologetically:

"Mr. Julang might be too emotional, so..."

"Excited?"

Wu He was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking of. His attitude softened a little, and he looked at Fa Lin suspiciously and said:

"Could it be that you have promised the young master?"

"Eh?"

Now it was Falin's turn to be confused, and she asked back with some doubt:

"Well, what did you promise?"

"of course……"

I agreed to the young master's proposal.

Wuhe seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

It seemed that Young Master Junlang had not explained the matter to the other party, so she certainly could not interfere. So the two sides just stared at each other, and the situation suddenly became awkward.

"Um..."

It seemed that due to the quarrel between the two sides, Kikuro suddenly frowned slightly and woke up again. Seeing this, Wuhe hurried to his side and said worriedly:

"Master, are you okay?"

"I……"

Kikuro was dazed for a moment, but soon recalled the conversation he had with Laos before he fell into a coma. He woke up instantly and his face became even uglier.

In order to revive Falin, he actually used black magic and the flesh and blood of the fire dragon...!

He stared at Laos as if he was an enemy, his eyes full of hostility.

Laos also looked at the other party solemnly, but his expression was more like a prisoner awaiting trial.

Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Maizuru's expression gradually became serious and she asked:

"Master, what happened just now?"

"..."

Ju Lang moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

But in the end, when he cast his gaze at Farin beside Laos, he seemed to have lost all his strength, and his hostility towards Laos turned into a complex sigh.

"…Nothing. Just some arguments, that's all, but it doesn't matter anymore."

Following this answer, Laos and Farin both looked at him with gratitude, and Chilchak, who had hurried over, also breathed a sigh of relief, thanking Farin for being there.

Only Falin could make an old-fashioned person like Julang say things that he would never say normally, right?

"Master..."

Wu He, who had taken care of him since he was a child, knew that he was definitely hiding something, but Kikuro just waved his hand, signaling her not to ask any more questions. Then, he looked at Laos seriously and said:

"I want to return to the team and work with you to defeat the crazy magician together."
