TL/ED – Enuma ID
In a secondhand bookstore with no customers.
“Yaaawn….”
At the moment the clerk yawned in the relaxed atmosphere.
Ẅ ёb ñ о́ v̈ е́ l. Е n̆um̊ а
Clatter-
A group of people opened the bookstore door and barged in.

“Search through everything.”
They rummaged through the bookshelves, looking for something.
“H-Hey! Who are you people!?”
The startled clerk hesitated, wondering if they should call the police.
Ѐ n u m á
A man with a gentle but somehow intellectual thug-like impression smiled and said.
“Ah~ we’re not suspicious people. We’re just looking for a book. It’s not strange to look for a book in a bookstore, right?”
“…That’s true, but…”
“We’ll buy a few books on the way out.”

Faced with pressure delivered through a smiling face, the clerk just shut their mouth.
The intellectual-looking man, Chief Kim, frowned inwardly at the orders from the chairman’s useless kids.

According to the Agency for Paranormal Response’s intel, a grimoire might have shown up seeking its master.
Search secondhand bookstores and libraries, and if there’s a grimoire, bring it back. These guys are seriously insane.

Sacred Maiden Convent.
A pure white sanctuary where darkness had sunk like a cozy curtain.
The fire in the brazier glowed beautifully, and young girls gathered to pray.

Of course, this was not a proper convent.
But they had acquired the true power to sustain and expand the organization.
A beautiful girl with white-silver hair closed her eyes and rubbed her cheek against the cover of a white, antique-style book.
<The Book of Angel Raziel>
“Ah~ Great Raziel. Yes~ please speak.”
She opened her ears and praised in an ecstatic voice.

“Your saintess shall listen.”
Then the saintess’s closed eyes opened, revealing sky-colored pupils.

A confused voice came out.
“…What? Korea? …Yo, han?”
Fwoosh-
The flames burning in the brazier turned blue, and sparks leaped, writing words on the floor.

‘Kill Yo-han.’
After failing to receive attention from Yo-han at the old bookstore.
<The Book of Angel Raziel>, which had immediately moved to find a new owner.
…could not forgive it.

How dare he ignore her shining self and choose that sinister.

Choosing that filthy grimoire was unforgivable.
Even if it were the Holy Grail filled with milk and honey, if a single drop of poison seeps in, it becomes a poisoned chalice.
Before the vessel of evil grew larger, it had to be broken.
Once Raziel’s oracle ended and the blue flames died out.

Elsea cautiously asked the other girls,

“Um, um~ does anyone know where Korea is?”
A bewildered voice replied.
“…We’re in Finland.”
Outside the Sacred Maiden Convent, a rough wind blew.

An old man with white hair dressed in a dark coat that covered his entire body.

A wanted necromancer who had snuck into Korea.
Edward Coffin swung the censer chained to the rod in his hand in a dark cemetery.

Thick smoke spread from the censer throughout the graveyard.
“Aaaah….”
Several zombies, also dressed in black coats like Edward, dug up graves with shovels.
The smoke seeped into the bodies exposed in the opened coffins.

Edward’s cold voice echoed.
“O ye who can no longer rise, I grant you permission. Rise again.”
“Aaaah…!”
Udeudeudeuk-

An unnatural sound was heard as the corpses lying in the coffins rose one by one.
A repeated process. Edward watched the scene.
Е̊ n ú m̈ а̃
In cultures where burial is the norm, it’s good for corpse handling.
Because there’s plenty to use. He could use them without hesitation.
Raising things that should never rise again, Edward looked up at the sky from among the dead.
He read the stars.
Through astrology, he had finally caught the trace of a great treasure.
<The Lesser Key of Solomon>

A more well-known name-
A grimoire that deals with the 72 demons of Solomon, the lords of hell.
<Lemegeton>
A grimoire that any wizard would yearn for.
Why had it reappeared?
Why had it shown up on this land…?

He didn’t know, but it didn’t matter.
It didn’t matter. It didn’t matter. It didn’t matter.

“O great grimoire, Lemegeton.”
Looking up at the sky, Edward’s voice rang out.
“Look upon me.”
He spread his arms and cried out toward the sky.

“I am the one worthy of wearing Solomon’s crown! Look upon me! Lemegeton!”
“Aaaaaaah…!”
The cries of the dead echoed through the heavens.
Edward’s eyes shone darkly.

Even if Lemegeton had already chosen a new master, it didn’t matter.
He would kill that person…

And prove that he was the more fitting, superior wizard for the grimoire.

A new female recruit from the Agency for Paranormal Response covered her mouth and retched at the horrific scene unfolding in the cemetery.
“Ugh….”

The disgusting stench of corpses.
And a grotesque structure, like a tower made of rotting bodies, made her dizzy.
“Is that… the Tower of Babel?”
Si-on also furrowed her brows, but instead of averting her eyes, she examined the structure.
The female recruit couldn’t understand and asked Si-on.
She couldn’t grasp why anyone would go so far as to use magic to build such a thing.

“Why would someone do this?”
Si-on thought for a moment before speaking.

“…To put it simply, it’s a mating display.”
“Sorry?”
“If Edward Coffin is here for the grimoire, then like a toad croaking louder, he’s flaunting his magical abilities to the grimoire.”
The female recruit looked at the horrific structure with trembling eyes.

“…Would something like this actually work?”
“If it’s a grimoire that hasn’t chosen a master, maybe. But if it already has one, then no.”
Si-on replied firmly.
“When choosing a master, grimoires prioritize personal preference.”

There were cases where a grimoire would change ownership as a spoil of war if the master was killed. But since every grimoire had different rules, nothing could be confirmed.
In any case, the current concern was.

“Someone who would do this isn’t going to back down easily. He’ll keep causing trouble.”
Si-on narrowed her eyes, staring at the devastation in the graveyard.
“We have to catch him before he causes something bigger.”

Having received thirty million won from Smith, and wanting to finally try what people call a real ‘hotel vacation’ Yo-han was on his way to the hotel he had booked.
He noticed a tent-covered area displaying various goods.

‘…Is it a bazaar?’
He had time to spare, so he figured he might as well look around.
He didn’t really intend to buy anything, but he wanted to enjoy the relaxed vacation vibe.
As he browsed casually.
Next to a stall selling drinks and cookies, he saw books stacked up for sale.
As he approached, a clerk smiled and said,
Еn um а. ĩd
“How about some cookies or a drink? We also have books.”
“Sure, I’ll just take a look.”

Responding casually to the woman, he looked at the stacked books.
“…Hmm?”
A worn leather-covered book caught his eye.
<The Lesser Key of Solomon>
Еn̊ǔ m̂.а.ĭd̈
The title felt vaguely familiar, as if he had seen it before somewhere, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
…Well, there are a lot of books with Solomon in the title.
That’s what he thought as he turned his gaze away.
“Sir, would you like to at least sample a drink… ah!”

Splash-
The clerk, who was about to hand him a paper cup filled with a drink, slipped and spilled it right onto his face.
Е̂ n̈ ǔ ṁ а̌
“………….”
“I-I’m so sorry!”
It wasn’t on purpose, and she was apologizing, so what could he do? He should just accept the apology.
“No, it’s okay.”
He took out a handkerchief and wiped his face.
The clerk, perhaps feeling guilty, spoke carefully.

“Um… I feel bad, so… would you like to take one book of your choice?”
“……….”
He looked at the books displayed in front of him.
<The Lesser Key of Solomon>
Nothing seemed particularly strange, but… how should he put it? It felt a little too deliberate.
In the past, I might have bought it just out of curiosity, but now I know that grimoires actually exist in this world.

I haven’t read the contents yet, so I’m not sure if this will be a blessing or a curse.
Grizzly listens to me fairly well, at least.

But what if that book has a monster inside that doesn’t obey me?
…Still, should I at least skim through it quickly?
And while I was stuck in that thought.
The clerk came back with another new drink.

“Hehe~ Sir, this time I’ll give it to you properly- ah!”
Splash-
I got soaked again.
“……….”

I ran my hand through my wet hair and let out a quiet sigh.
“Haa….”
Е̂n̊ ǔ m ӑ
For some reason, it felt like I made eye contact with <The Lesser Key of Solomon>.
Alright. Alright. Alright.
I’ll buy it, okay?
I picked up the book and spoke to the clerk.
“How much is this? I’ll just properly pay money and buy it.”
