"How about using magic instead? I think we could set up a medium here and overlay an illusion." Kiriel spoke with confidence while clenching and unclenching his hand. 'If we hire someone, we'll have to worry about that aspect too, but if his magic works, it would be relatively easier.' Intrigued, Kana's eyes sparkled. "Could you perhaps show me an example?" "Of course I can." Kiriel took out a small wooden doll from his spatial storage, placed it behind the counter, and snapped his…-

"If even a spirit sensitive to energy detection reacts like that, there must definitely be something suspicious." "The problem is we can't know right away...... We should keep an eye on that aspect, but for now, it's better to focus on the people around. We don't know who might try to harm the female lead." Kana unconsciously touched her forehead with her finger as she spoke with a sigh in her voice. Kiriel gently patted her back and casually mentioned. "I've already left marks on the coffee house…

"Well, that's true." Kiriel grinned while stretching his shoulders. They rested for a while before moving to the bedroom. Due to their setting as a married couple, it was set up as one room, but fortunately there were two beds, placed slightly apart. Kana clapped her hands in delight. "Wow, we can each use our own bed. This is perfect!" "Yeah." Unlike her jumping joy, his expression was dark. Kana tilted her head and asked. "What's wrong?" "While we're set as a married couple, they…

Despite their thorough inspection, they found nothing unusual. Kana maintained a natural smile as she responded to the host's words. "It's an honor to be Elina's first guests. We'll enjoy the meal." "Yes." They all began eating. Only the women exchanged compliments about the food and engaged in pleasant conversation while praising each other. Kiriel quietly watched Kana as she chatted vivaciously. Elina tilted her head and spoke up. "Kiriel is still quite reserved. Come to think of it, I…

"Not yet." "Whew, that's a relief." Kiriel wiped his chest. Kana gently comforted him. "Don't worry too much. You don't seem like that kind of person." "I love you, Kana." "Me too." After her response, the two were enveloped in silence. Kana stared intently at him, his eyes still clear, before bringing up a different topic. "By the way, when we were dining earlier, I got information from the spirits doing real-time reconnaissance, but there didn't seem to be any dangerous elements in…

After persistently tracking the suspects for several days, they successfully dealt with all of them using magic and spirit arts without raising suspicion. They eliminated the high-risk individuals and Kiriel used mental magic to confuse the ambiguous ones. Even after returning to the mansion, he couldn't hide his regret. "My sister is better at mental magic. That's unfortunate." "It helped enough, so it's fine. Magic really has a wide range of uses and is convenient." "That's natural. Ah, of…

The living room fell silent after Elina's words. Kiriel sat next to Kana and snapped his fingers. A sound-blocking magic spread. "Kana, seems like the female protagonist roughly knows the situation too. Should we just be straightforward?" "Let's do that. Leave the conversation with her to me." "Okay." Kiriel lifted the sound-blocking magic. To Elina's eyes, it just looked like the two were moving their lips while exchanging words. While she took a deep breath, Kana carefully opened her…

After sharing the secret with the female protagonist, they maintained good relations without having to work separately on favorability like in previous rounds. Since they had secretly dealt with the people who killed Elina in rounds 1 and 2, it was an extremely peaceful time. Kana watched Kiriel who was carefully examining jewels with gloves on and placing them in boxes. "Since we're entering the third month, the sub male lead will appear." "Yeah, looking at the timing, he'll come…

"......Huh? Why?" Not understanding the connection, Elina tilted her head in confusion. Kiriel, who had been quiet, joined the conversation. "We mentioned the mastermind earlier." "Yes." "Actually, it was hard to crack during the investigation. Considering that along with other factors, we suspect the mastermind is likely a noble." "......Ah." Finally understanding the intent behind the questions, Elina's expression darkened. Kana carefully spoke. "Though it's a sensitive topic, have…

"Well, that's not entirely wrong. You're quite composed, more than expected." Kana acknowledged with a shrug, her voice distorted with static. There was no point denying when the other party was already certain. Cedric narrowed his eyes and responded flatly. "I expected you'd come directly someday, judging by your actions. You don't seem like people who work just for money...... Could you perhaps be quite close to Elina Dekrom?" "Think what you want." Though Kana responded indifferently, she…
