When Alice opened the first page in the beginning, an introduction to the diary of the reincarnator to whoever read it.
"Meet me, my name is Kanzaki Lian. I'm from Japan, the Reincarnator."
Turning over the page because the sentence was written in the middle, Alice wanted to know the next page.
"I am not part of the royal family but only an adventurer who happens to be accepted to work here by the first king, Bertand."
"Bertand?!"
Surprised enough Alice did not expect it to be long enough.
As Alice recalls, the royal family tree owned by her family, Nishimura, was quite numerous from the beginning of the generation to the generation of her grandfather, whose distance from generation to generation was about 5 generations.
Not wanting to remain silent, Alice reads on the next section without turning the next page.
"I was hired as a researcher in the kingdom to take care of the recent problems."
The problem is none other than monster girl, a terror that is quite shocking to anyone who knows that they are dangerous and troublesome.
That's what's written next to it on page three.
Alice turned over the next page showing the fourth and fifth pages. She started reading the fourth page first and then the fifth page.
"They, monster girls, always trouble anyone they meet. Not only do they make them their life's supplier, they even make them weapons against their loved ones and loved ones."
On page five, Alice is trying to figure it out.
"Fortunately, Bertand and I as adventurers were able to overcome them with our cooperation. Not just the two of us, there are other colleagues who help us, such as Renny, a high-level wizard, Erick, a tanker, and Dina, an expert in using alchemists."
Understanding what's written on page five, Alice thinks it's possible that Kanzaki here is just a mercenary employed by this kingdom, the Kingdom of Thijam by Bertand.
The evidence is not only him, there are also Renny, the witch, Erick, the tanker, and Dina, the alchemist.
Or it could be that Kanzaki has a party like them, they end up working with Kanzaki to be able to deal with the threat from the monster girl who terrorized the kingdom.
Behind the next page, Alice's crimson eye leads to page six.
"Thanks to our cooperation, we managed to eliminate them even though those who were controlled and became part of monster girls could not return to their old lives, they died by us."
There is a sadness implied in this writing.
It is certain that Kanzaki did not want the people of this kingdom to die by him. But he had no choice but to do so. Because if he doubted it, there was a possibility that he would die in his second life.
The situation is somehow similar to Alice's but under different circumstances.
Kanzaki is confronted by the monster girl who makes allies of the townspeople, she is forced to commit murder with her colleagues Renny, Erick, and Dina. As for Alice, she was required to be able to face death by fighting something that would wait for her, whether Edi would intervene or his subordinates.
Anyway, both don't want to die.
Alice's crimson eyes point to the right, reading the seventh page of Kanzaki's diary.
"Once peace was gained, all those who helped us were disbanded. The Kingdom is restored to its original state, calm and peaceful. "
It can be said that their hard work produced satisfactory results, Alice also smiled when she imagined Kanzaki's expression, which was finally relieved to overcome the obstacles.
But the next page is the beginning of the suffering Alice never expected from what Kanzaki experienced through his diary.
She turned the next page, reading through the left first. On page eight, Alice's expression is tense knowing that something that never happened happened by Kanzaki.
"Even though everything was peaceful, Bertand told me to do some research in the basement, where I am now."
In other words, this is a secret basement.
But, Alice didn't see the experimental materials around, but there were only neatly arranged books on a parallel shelf, one meter high.
"Huh... There's something underneath the sentence."
Realizing there was a subtle little sentence, Alice read it carefully.
"If someone is reading this, maybe this place has been touched by someone when I'm gone. Maybe that's why there's no research material for me as a researcher but there's only bookshelves."
Surprised that Kanzaki had anticipated this by writing it, it is likely that the perpetrator who took the materials was the king or someone else.
Because as far as Alice knows, this room's been scattered for a long time. It's impossible for anyone else to just destroy or obliterate the materials collected from the monster girl part.
Moving from the left, Alice's eyes to the ninth page on the right.
"At first I was told to study how monster girls were born when their population was not there, Bertand told me to do it."
On page ten, Alice was shocked when she saw something bad that Kanzaki had to choose to continue her research.
"I don't know where to do the guinea pig, but I'm forced to do it on Forest Boar."
Glancing to the right, Alice read the sentence on page eleven.
"At first it seemed to go well. The process is similar to transmutation, the part I inject through the fluid from the monster girl's body to it's body is beginning to show."
Curiosity got bigger, Alice turned the page to read directly between pages twelve and thirteen.
"The part of Forest Boar's body injected with fluid from one of the Lamia's tails transmutes into tentacles from the Lamia's tail."
"At first Forest Boar regained consciousness when revived, but then acted aggressively with instinct to hunt down so I was forced to eliminate with my magic."
It must have been painful to know that if the experiment failed the first day, Alice could understand the sadness of Kanzaki who couldn't do it.
The next page behind shows pages fourteen and fifteen.
"Not just once, repeated failures are constantly occurring."
"I wondered why they were initially raised with their consciousness, but suddenly they were carried away by the instinct of one of the monster girl instincts injected into them."
There must be some confusion, that's what Kanzaki said.
He was unaware of what had happened to the results of his experiments to complete his work as a researcher.
Pages sixteen and seventeen are viewed by Alice after turning over the next page from the previous page.
"Forced to, I postponed this research to relieve my work."
"As many years passed, I finally had a small family with my wife as a commoner, and my daughter named Alicia."
"Alicia, what a beautiful name."
A small smile was seen on Alice's lips, she was happy with Kanzaki who had a small family rather than continuing his research, fearing that he would not only be desperate and frustrated, but there was also a possibility that it would cause sadness if Kanzaki continued.
But unfortunately, Alice's hopes were disputable to the next page. Pages nineteen and twenty as they turn the next page.
"Unfortunately, the peace I've been in for quite a while. My daughter was detained by Bertand with an elite bodyguard, while he ordered me to continue my research rather than be happy with my little family."
There was a red pulse on Alice's forehead, she strengthened her grip on both diaries with an irritated face.
He did not expect that the first king of the Kingdom of Thijam intended to force Kanzaki to continue his research that could bring sadness, despair and frustration if he failed rather than after it.
Not knowing what Bertand wanted, Alice went on to read it.
"As the population of Forest Boar and Forest Wolf drastically decreased to near extinction, I was forced to use my wife as a guinea pig at her request."
Suddenly his expression was tense knowing this.
Alice thought about it in her mind, like; "Are you out of your mind?" "She's your wife, not a tool to be a guinea pig!" and "How could you do that to your wife even though she wanted you to do it?" Without a pause in her mind at all vented her annoyance at Kanzaki.
Turned to the next page out of curiosity, Alice read it again.
"Unlike specimens from dead creatures, living specimens like my wife experience nothing but normal effects as usual but with a keen sense of sight, smell, and hearing because I injected one of the fluids in Wolf Girl's body."
"It's just that after a few days, my wife was detained in a different cellar from this room. It's in the right-hand room connected to this place that I secretly made."
Stalled for a moment, Alice saw nothing to the right of the shelf and mattress, ending reading it to find out what the underground room looked like.
She placed the book on a table as high as the kotatsu table with no cloth and a warm-up machine, standing up from sitting down to fumbling the area around the right of the secret room.
At first she didn't feel anything in the place, but accidentally pressing one of the walls of the exact same size on the bed made her fall into an open room.
"Ouch... Again like this...."
Confused as to why a reincarnator like Kanzaki made this, Alice immediately got up to see this room.
Her might say this room is a dusty, abandoned cellar, with mossy, grassy walls with roots creeping in some places, while inside the prison there are only a few skeletons filled with cobwebs and dust, There are also insects around the skull skeleton in the form of human skulls.
Not only that, but there's been a blood spot that's been drying up long enough on the floor and the walls in the holding cell make Alice who's surprised to see this think that something bad happened in the past to this place.
"Huh?"
Crimson's eye gaze leads to one of the holding cells with a human skull about 175 cm tall, having a crown-like object not far from falling from his long dusty, spider-nested head.
"Could this be..."
Shivering filled Alice's back, the hope was that it wasn't the first king, Bertand, who was locked up there.
If it is, then how can the first king earn so many awards through artwork in the frame of a painting in the lobby on the ground floor along with the next king and queen of succession.
Alice, who had kicked the rusty holding cell long enough to finally get into it, covered her nose and mouth with one of her hands, while her other hand removed the cobwebs and dust to see something on the shelf where the holding cell had a human skull with a crown not far fallen from it.
"What is this paper?"
Out of curiosity, Alice read it carefully. But what she read was not to make sure that the human skull with the crown falling close to her was not the first king, Bertand, but rather Bertand.
"Why would I do this for an achievement that no one can achieve to prove to the next generation after me?"
There are words of regret in that sentence.
Alice thinks Bertand began to regret what he had done so far by involving Kanzaki continuing his research by holding his daughter hostage, sacrificing his wife who did not know what happened afterwards because Alice delayed reading in Kanzaki's diary.
"Had I known that greed could cause me to think small, I couldn't have done this. For anyone who reads this letter, I am truly sorry as the first king. But, I want you to excuse my actions solely to make them weapons and shields for me to be able to fight my enemies."
There's nothing hateful in that sentence but reality.
Bertand made man a tool for swords and shields by conducting research through Kanzaki as a monster girl, solely to make him fight his enemies who are much stronger than him.
But still, Alice did not blame his thinking but blamed his attitude for doing so because it was not true.
Bertand is so selfish, he only thinks of his own desire and greed to be able to gain protection, without understanding what Kanzaki felt when he lost his wife when his wife became a wolf girl, one of the monster girls.
"Huh... Any other records?"
Another note in the small note, it's written neatly but with a rather bad sentence in every letter in it.
"In the prison cell next door, it's the prison cell of Kanzaki's wife."
Dropping the little note, Alice's crimson eyes moved from that place to the next cell.
There, the skeletons of human skulls that were downcast, no skin and no flesh but only human skeletons made Alice initially think that they were other prisoners, but who would have thought that they were prisoners of Kanzaki's wife.
Once again, Alice kicks the prison cell connected between in the first king's holding cell, Bertand and in the holding cell of Kanzaki's wife, she sees a note that is almost completely torn.
"Could she have had a human consciousness?"
No, Alice doubted that.
Even if it does exist, then why is this letter still here even though the fourth end of the paper has been torn out because of claws.
Approaching the shelf, Alice picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"My dear, I'm sorry. I... has become a disgusting creature. I almost killed you and Lord Bertand. I, uh... , Shouldn't live by proposing this to you. Especially with Lord Bertand torturing me to make me bow to him."
Closing her mouth with her eyes wide open knowing what was written, Alice imagines it immediately spews liquid out of her mouth.
Surely, she will faint immediately or may die knowing what happened in the past if he lived in their era. But there was a sense of luck because she did not live in their era. Because if she don't, it's possible that Alice will have the same fate as Kanzaki's wife.
Unable to stand this place, Alice hastily returned to the middle room by groping for the nearest wall until finally opening the room to the middle, she finally breathed a sigh of relief for not imagining anything bad.
Indeed, Alice admitted that she did not know the name of Kanzaki's wife because it was partially covered in blood. Not knowing if it was the blood of his wife or the blood of his prey, just imagining that it had made Alice's body shiver with fear.
