Can the sadness that magic cannot take away be offset by love?

*

Ryland knew Lucius was a medicine man from a very early age.

Lucius never allowed himself to leave any traces that could be captured, but he didn't need that either -

Based on his experience of knowing Lucius since childhood, he could make a direct judgment.

Because if Lucius were a mortal, he would not perform with such enthusiasm in a place where lights gather as he does now, but would be more inclined to hide himself in the crowd - just like Miss Green.

*

The next day, a loud announcement resounded in every corner of each candidate’s room:

"No one died last night."

……

Ryland couldn't help but frown.

After washing, he opened the door. When he went downstairs, he happened to be walking side by side with Lucius. He leaned slightly and whispered in Lucius's ear:

"What are you crazy about?"

Lucius patted him on the shoulder and smiled without saying a word.

Last night, Ryland could not kill a mortal, and could only weigh between a medicine man and a wizard. Considering that the pharmacist could feed himself the antidote, he chose to eliminate the wizards and take away every one he could.

Who knew last night would actually be Christmas Eve.

This shows that Lucius did not feed the antidote to himself, but used it on the wizard.

He must be really sick.

Throughout the day, Leyland had these words echoing in his mind over and over again.

During the free time during the day, Ryland first met the wizard.

"How about voting for Lucius later?"

he asked straight to the point. There was an element of Lucius influencing Smith in yesterday's voting results, and today he wanted to make sure to drag Lucius down before he died.

Since we are good friends, we should go to the Easter match together.

It didn't do the wizard any harm at all, and she nodded.

Lucius, who had arranged to meet Aecilia in the church, folded his arms and leaned against the wall. When he saw her coming in, he said in a lazy voice:

"Anything gained?"

Aecilia gathered strength with her fingers and threw the two fresh fragments of old events she picked up in her hand to him, found a place to sit down, and said:

"Seen on the mill door and on the floor. Not there yesterday."

Lucius pinched the light and shadow card he just caught, looked at it twice, and said casually:

"That means there is a limit to the number of old news fragments that can be released every day."

He took out a light and shadow card from his pocket, looked at her twice, and then said:

"Found it among the rose bushes."

Aecilia nodded, and then discussed today's actions with him.

In the afternoon, the wizard was blocked by the medicine man and mortals in the library on the third floor.

"Miss Smith, what do you think of Mr. Lucius's cooking skills?"

Aecilia smiled.

……

When Ryland discovered them, Lucius immediately glanced in his direction. After a while, the people dispersed. He wanted to go to the wizard, but was stopped by Green who came forward.

"Mr. Undercover, voting starts in five minutes. Let's hurry to the first floor."

He checked the time and then hurried to the first floor. The moment he entered the living room, a black ball of light came towards him.

It's still too late.

He had no time to communicate with the wizard anymore, but went directly to the voting session.

He pursed his lips and voted for Lucius, and the results came out quickly:

"No. 1 Lucius has one vote, No. 2 Smith has zero votes, No. 4 Leyland has zero votes, and No. 5 Green has two votes. The final elimination candidate in this voting is No. 5 Green. Please return to the room temporarily to wait for resurrection. Or when the dungeon ends, you cannot leave the room while waiting. There will be dedicated staff serving three meals at seven o'clock, twelve o'clock, and nineteen o'clock every day."

Ryland's desire to scold Lucius for being sick reached its peak at this moment. Lucius, who had expected it, pushed open the door of the living room and rushed back to his room, followed by Ryland. Finally, the calm Miss Smith who stayed behind turned and walked into the kitchen.

Aecilia was quite grateful that she could receive a lunch box tonight.

*

"The fourth night has arrived, please ask the medicine man to take action."

……

"Operation Medicine Master is over, please let the undercovers, wizards and sages start taking action."

……

Dinner was a nutritious lunch box delivered by the staff. The simple and crude chicken drumstick + baby cabbage + white rice made Aecilia extremely satisfied.

Before going to bed, she thought of the fragments of old events she found during the day based on her current situation.

"Act 4": The young man with a mediocre face and plain clothes fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a few traces of brightly colored poison liquid flowed from his lips.

Mortals in this script have no reason to seek death, and they certainly won't really ask the wizard to pay for their own lives. But before he died, he thought the wizard drank fake poison for himself, and the faint smile on his face conveyed his expectations for a future life of plenty of money.

——Although the ending of the living is humorous and tragic, in the game, death is not the end.

The revenge of the incompetent has just begun, and the dead souls will not stop at night.

*

"The person who died last night was No. 2."

Number two is Miss Smith's number.

……

Amidst the repeated broadcasts, Lucius and Ryland opened the door almost simultaneously, and then looked at each other from afar.

"Guess, did Miss Wizard sprinkle poison on you last night?"

Lucius asked with a smile.

Ryland looked straight at Lucius with his gentle eyes, and said with a kind and sincere smile:

"I have no way of guessing Miss Wizard's behavior, but I know that Mr. Pharmacist must not have given Miss Wizard any more antidote."

Lucius waved his hands quickly, raised the corners of his mouth in a big arc, and said:

"You're welcome, I gave you the antidote."

In the silent air, Leland's smile remained unchanged, and his tone was still the same kind and natural, making people feel like spring breeze:

"Neuropathy."

*

In the room on the fourth floor, the wizard lady felt particularly refreshed after sleeping until she woke up naturally.

She already knew last night that she would be eliminated by the undercover, but in order to make herself feel more involved, she still spilled the poison on the undercover.

Mr. Pharmacist kept his word and kept the undercover agent. Thinking of this, Miss Smith, who had been idle all day, looked at the fragment of old things she found in the afternoon of her first day.

"Act Six": The frowning, angry young man held the antidote bottle in his left hand and a sharp knife in his right hand, and thrust the sharp knife into the chest of the brown-haired young man wearing a white shirt and black trousers.

The pharmacist kills the undercover agent.

*

In the tea room, Lucius leaned comfortably on a soft chair, and Ryland walked in, spinning a light and shadow card on his fingertips.

"Hey, it's already today, and you're still busy looking for scraps?"

Lucius's tone could never be related to the word serious. Ryland, who had long been accustomed to it, replied gently:
