The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...

Just stories, stories about the night circus.
There is a story about a small village in a certain country. It says that a beautiful witch suddenly came to the village and caused discord among the families in the entire village. The witch had a characteristic that she sang very beautifully, and almost all the men in the village were bewitched by her, and they wandered outside the witch's house day and night.
If you don't go to work, you will also lose the care for your family!
Then the witch became the enemy of all the women in the village. The misfortune had just begun when the women in the village united to beat the witch half to death and drove her out of the village. At first it was just vomiting, which spread like a plague in the village. Then she felt that her hands and feet were very stiff, and her skin became as rough as wood.
In the end, of course, everyone in the village turned into wooden sculptures, and only a mentally ill little girl survived.
She was the one who sang the ballad at that time:
The little villageā¦is dead;
Everyone froze or fled.
The whole place became empty, with only me and my toys.
"This is the story of the crazy girl. It comes from a village in the western country of Xiata. I heard it when I was a child." The three girls had just finished telling the story when Frelia, who was sitting at the main table eating, knew the whole story.
"We were already feeling nauseous and had body stiffness, but things suddenly changed. We wanted to write about the village, but because it was very similar to the story of the Night Circus, we only wrote down these few words..." said the girl sitting closest to Sean.
She didn't even write out the key points, and if she was writing on a note, it might be better to just write the words "Katia Village Circus". I don't know why she thought of writing this ballad first. Isn't this intentionally misleading others?
Sean subconsciously looked at the status of the three girls at the moment, and their favorability levels were all [Friendly].
But they didn't know what they had done. They simply heard Frelia introduce herself as a member of the Wings of Covering the Sky, and they also proposed to save them, so it was normal for them to have such a good impression of her.
It's not like I haven't experienced someone's favorability dropping from a high level once before...
So when the three of them were talking, Sean took a special look at their condition and didn't find anything unusual.
Maybe I'm overthinking...
If the three girls intended to mislead Frelia, they shouldn't have used their own bodies. They were [frozen~].
"Sean? Sean..."
"ah."
Sean was brought back to his senses when Frelia called him.
"What are you thinking about?"
The other person glanced at the plate on the table... Sean lowered his head towards his hands and realized that the fork was poking into the table!
"What are you thinking about so intently?"
"Nothing, I just lost my mind..."
"Tell me what you think. I see you've been thinking about something." Frelia seemed to like listening to her opinions on various things and would ask her about every matter, big or small.
The five girls in front of him were all looking at him, and Sean was thinking about what excuse he could use to cover it up.
After all, I was just suspecting the people in front of me... I have no evidence at the moment, so it is not appropriate to bring up the matter. If I go to Lietis in the future and they are still there, I am afraid there will be conflicts with me.
"I'm just a little curious, would these things be said in a circus?" I asked this question as I suddenly thought of it.
Sean hadn't seen any circus performances when he was in Thermian, but in his impression, a circus was just acrobatics, animal training, and other performances that were more eye-catching and more stimulating to the nerves.
"Tsk! I thought it was something else. This is completely normal." The little witch Karlyana said again with disgust.
"Kalyana..."
Frelia said to the other party before explaining to Sean.
"There are often entertainers hanging around in circuses. They usually tell all sorts of stories and gossip they've collected, whetting the audience's appetite before selling their own novels. It's a very common profession."
Oh~artist.
Oh well, I learned about a new profession today.
No wonder the other party just said that he had heard this version of the story a long time ago, when he was a child...
Frelia never revealed her actual age, and Sean didn't dare ask. But judging from what Earl Hamilton had said, she must be at least thirty. If she was only a child, then he probably hadn't been born yet.
"But you're on the right track. There's probably something fishy about this circus. This story has been circulating for a long time, but I haven't heard of anything like it happening in that village again. If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered it being related to the story of the crazy girl. But your situation this time is very similar to the scene in the story... I guess you're trying to clue me in on this story as well."
Frelia fell silent for a moment, and a "Thinking!" sign appeared above her head.
"A circus that only performs at night..."
"Karlana." Frelia said suddenly.
"Yeah, I'm here."
"You should continue to send a letter to Lietis later and tell Sohana everything that happened. Have her inform Prince Philip and tell him to send someone to Katia Village to check."
"Yes, lead."
"If something happens to you guys, what will happen to the people in the village right now?"
The four girls fell silent...
