new environment

Esther turned over hard from the stone bed, but the stone bed was not spacious enough for her to toss around. She fell directly to the ground and let out a wail.

A voice came from outside the stone door: "Esther? Are you okay?"

Esther quickly got up and fumbled to turn on the light on the wall so that she wouldn't hit her toes when opening the door in the dark.

"I'm fine! I'm here!"

As soon as the stone door opened, Dunn, who was holding a ball of quilt, saw Esther's hair sticking up: "I'm sorry, did I disturb your sleep? I sent you your things."

Esther quickly took the quilt and put it on the stone bed. Only then did she notice that there were two boxes at Dunn's feet. Someone must have moved them here for him, but they left after moving them.

"Thank you! I'm really sorry to trouble you."

Dunn helped Esther move the suitcase into the door: "If you need anything else, you can tell me."

"No need for now, I will stay here well."

Dunn had never seen such an active "prisoner", and he choked on his words: "That's good."

Esther pointed to the two boxes: "Then after I take out the things, can I put them outside the door? They take up a lot of space in the house."

"Okay, I'll take them away when I come down to deliver lunch."

Dunn even brought a tin bucket in and asked Esther to throw anything she didn't want here. Then he once again told Esther to ask for anything, and then he left the stone house.

"The Captain Smith that Daly mentioned has a bad memory..." Esther murmured, opened the box, looked through and sorted the things inside, most of them were clothes, folded very neatly.

Since there was no wardrobe in the house, Esther kept this box and dug out the sundries she left in Slim Bakery from another box. Esther took out the handkerchief that was used as a small nest and put it on the bedside. .

Since there was nothing else to do, Esther concentrated on packing her things very quickly. The notes she took in class at the Night Church, many newly bought books and pens were all inside, as well as a green striped scarf with a bear pattern sewn on it. A small bunch of colourful thread rolls, and the wallet. Apart from that, Esther didn't have many personal belongings, and the box was quickly emptied.

"Oh, I didn't even have time to compile it." Esther put the coloured thread rolls and books on the stone table, adding a touch of bright colour to the room. She originally planned to try making small bracelets to make extra money. When she was in high school, she learned how to do this as it was popular in school, but before she could do it again, she was brought here.

It seems like I don't have to worry about making money for the time being.

Esther thought optimistically, pushed the empty box outside the stone door, sat on a chair and read the "Selected Poems of Roselle" that she had not finished reading before. Her evaluation of this book of poems recommended by the clerk was: There were so many copies.

This resulted in a rather subtle expression on her face when she was reading.

Not long after, Dunn knocked on the stone door again. Esther came out immediately and took the paper bag he was holding. Inside was a bacon and lettuce sandwich, a bag of water, a piece of muffin cake and an apple.

"Thank you! Please tell Ms. Daly not to worry about me, I am staying here very well."

Dunn nodded silently, picked up the empty box at the door and left.

Esther looked along the corridor to the other side. She always felt that there was something very noisy there, always whispering, but it quickly became quiet after Dunn left, as if he was afraid of her attention.

Is there anything else locked underground?

The power full of the feeling of darkness was rooted in every place, making Esther feel relieved. Although Esther was curious, she would not cause trouble. She happily closed the stone door with her lunch, without any intention of finding out.

Esther continued to read the collection of poems by Emperor Roselle while having lunch. Judging from these plagiarisms, he was definitely a time traveller, just like herself and the goddess of the night. Esther hasn't had time to collect information about Emperor Roselle's life, and she doesn't know if he is still alive?

But judging from the way the clerk was bragging about his collection of poems, he was probably no longer alive, and the dead always received more respect than the living.

Of course, except perhaps for the real gods in this world.

Esther thought about what she should do in the future. Her condition was indeed not suitable for running around outside. she would affect any living thing that came into contact with her, but she didn't think there was anything wrong.

Well, it seems that she can easily win the favour of others and then control their fate...

The moment this idea came up, Esther keenly remembered it. She sat up slightly, put down the sandwich on her lips, and remembered how she had tampered with the instructions of the little bug when she was blocked in the alley. .

Is this the key? I seem to have found some clue.

What did the black night say about little bugs?

Thinking of this, Esther pulled over her notebook while munching on her sandwich, and quickly sorted out the current clues, especially circling a few key words: destiny, other worlds, kindness of the night, plans, and the history of the true god.

After thinking again and again, Esther wrote the word "Amon" in the corner, in a less conspicuous place.

These are all things she needs to observe and collect clues to target in the short term. I wonder if Ms. Daly and her teammates understand it.

Esther took a long time to dig out her pocket before catching the little bug. It curled up tightly into a ball and seemed to be surrounded by a black shell. A faint light could be seen surrounding it.

"Huh..." Esther tentatively pinched the shell, but it was so hard that she couldn't pick it off. She was worried about hurting the little bug inside, so she could only give up the violent action of breaking the shell and put it in the handkerchief on her bedside. , wrap it carefully.
