Isekai Dinosaur
Dark Energy within the Eastern Side City Wall

The three of them fought Scorpiones until nightfall. They stop when the air temperature becomes very cold.

In the desert, during the day it will feel very hot and at night it will also feel very cold.

Nimi and Mine were satisfied with the fight today as they were able to move freely without any worries as there was Claire who would heal them when injured.

They were also satisfied with the results of the training they had been doing for days that could defeat the Scorpiones without using mana.

Occasionally, Claire also participates in the fight by helping the two of them remotely with both mana pistols.

Claire looked at the moon in the sky and said, "Let's go back, it's night. Master will also ask if we don't return now."

Nimi and Mine nodded and replied, "Alright, let's go back."

When they saw the Scorpiones' bodies, they thought about taking them because the soldiers said Scorpiones could be eaten.

However, one Scorpiones alone had a large body size. They could not bring him into the city especially now that it was night and were afraid of disturbing the others.

They decide to return without Scorpiones and tell Julian to pick it up tomorrow if it's still there.

But suddenly, as they were about to return inside the city, they felt something bad. Even Claire who normally did not feel anything could feel it at this moment.

"Nimi, Mine, even though you've never met a demon. But you must have felt a disgusting aura from them," said Claire.

Nimi nodded and said, "Yes, we've felt it in Coramon City before."

Clare looked around and said, "Now, what we're feeling is something similar to demonic energy but lighter."

"Wait, if what we are feeling right now is something similar to demonic energy, isn't the rumor regarding Lich and the others true?" Mine frowned.

"..." - ".The three of them were silent for a moment.

Claire pondered for a moment and decided, "Don't act rashly, let's go back to Master's side first. I'm sure Master will investigate this."

"Okay, we don't have the energy either." Nimi and Mine nodded.

Although the three of them were curious, but they still thought rationally. They would not check that dark energy in their current state.

They entered the gate by showing their identity cards and did not notify the guards as there was no evidence.

Even if there were, the jutsru guards would hold the three of them back from spreading the news to the public.

...----------------...

"You're back?" The sleeping Julian opened his eyes and saw the three of them back.

"We're back, Master." Claire nodded with a serious face.

Julian realized something was wrong and immediately asked, "What's wrong? Tell me if anything happens to you three."

The three of them sat on the bed, and Claire told Julian about the dark energy they were feeling.

Claire also gave her opinion that there was a high chance that the rumors regarding Lich and the others were indeed true.

Julian narrowed his eyes and his facial expression turned serious after hearing the information from Claire.

"Good work, all of you. Now that you can rest, you must be tired, right? Let me move right now" Julian said.

After cleaning up, the three of them immediately fell asleep soundly because they had expended a lot of energy to fight against the Scorpiones earlier.

Julian took out a dark black robe from the inventory and put it on. Then, he opened the window of the inn and jumped from his room which was on the 5th floor.

He did not land on the ground, but jumped between the roofs of buildings to avoid the soldiers who were patrolling.

The destination was the eastern side city wall where Claire and the two demi-humans sensed the dark energy.

Julian was on top of the city wall in secret. Then he found a safe place there.

After which, he closed his eyes and sharpened his entire five senses to feel the dark energy there.

It didn't take long, Julian opened his eyes and this time there was a hint of excitement within his eyes.

"What Claire said is true. There's dark energy here, and what's interesting is that dark energy comes from the city wall" Julian's inner self.

Julian thought that if the dark energy was indeed there, then it came from the desert a little away from the city walls.

Because there was no way the Lich would raise the Undead near the city wall because the guards would definitely notice it.

But he did not expect that the dark energy was guilty from within the city walls, rather it was on the lower city wall.

"Let's check what's hidden inside the walls of this city." Julian stood up and looked around to check if there were any guards or not.

Once it felt safe, it leaped off the city wall and landed beneath it smoothly without making a sound as it used mana to slow itself down as it fell down.

Julian sharpened his five senses again to find the exact location of the dark energy and then he walked in the direction.

"Is this it?" Julian looked in front of him.

In front of him was a building that looked like a warrior barracks and he could see that there were some soldiers on patrol.

"It's going to be a little troublesome, but that doesn't mean I can't go in there" Julian said.

Julian wears a cloak hood and wears a dark black mask as well just in case he is seen by the soldiers.

"Silence." Julian used magic all over his body so as not to make a sound.

Although the movement will not cause sound, but Julian still settles and does not relax his vigilance.

He knew if he relaxed a little, there might be something unexpected and he would not respond well later.

Julian managed to get inside the barracks smoothly. Inside is also the same as barracks in general that contain soldiers.

Julian walked in the direction he felt with his five senses towards the source of the dark energy he felt.

As it turned out, the source was underground when he noticed that there was a circular staircase leading underground behind a door hidden in the storage warehouse.

Julian further increased his vigilance, he descended underground with the circular staircase in careful steps.

When he reached the end of the stairs, there was a wooden door that was worn out. The wooden door slowly opened and saw some people talking about something.

Julian would listen to their talk, but he saw the person he had seen in the book indicated by the merchant he had met.

The person in question was the current leader of the City of Cronna, Count Raff Hardi. And how shocked Julian was when he heard what Count Raff was talking about with the others.
