"I get it." The Lord snapped his fingers. "The principle is just like a hibernating snake."
"They used the Dark Erosion Crystal to unwittingly turn Rillo into a hibernating snake, drastically lowering his perception of the outside world."
"Exactly," Filo sighed. "What a brilliant method."
"As for the third point, there isn't much to say. The attendant was actually just a High Tier Mage. Everyone assumed he used a piece of Magic Equipment inscribed with a Legendary Level spell."
"All in all, the combination of three insidious and hard-to-detect Death Magic spells, the effects of the Dark Erosion Crystal, and the fact that Rillo Archbishop was focused on his advancement, led to this tragedy."
Everyone sighed in unison, seeming to lament the Archbishop's fate.
He was on the verge of advancing to Great Magic Master, with a boundless future ahead of him. He could have even left behind legendary tales that would be told for generations.
