~~~~~LISA'S POV~~~~~

I opened my eyes wide and looked up at the Crown Prince, whose face was fiercely hardened.

“……cut my hair?”

“”Why are you cutting a clean head with a dangerously dagger?”

“I’m going to make a brush.”

“Bru…?”

I was dumbfounded at the sight of the Crown Prince, who rushed at every move.

“I said, I’ll take care of it, so I asked you to wait a moment, Your Highness.”

I forced my hand out of his grasp and gave him a nonchalant reply.

“I’m busy now, so don’t interrupt and wait by my side.”

“……ungracious. How dare you command the Crown Prince of the Empire.”

When he pointed his finger at the place where he was supposed to retreat, he spoke with a blunt tongue, but he backed away.

I put the dagger back into my arms. Then I rolled up a handful of long-cut hair in his hand and grabbed it. The brown hair curled greedily.

‘I wish I had straight hair..’

I glanced at the crown prince’s hair out of regret, but if I didn’t want to die, I had to be satisfied with my own.

I approached the skull again and gently swept the left finger bone with my hair. Removing foreign substances from a solo dig during a field recovery was a basic part of the basics.

My hair was so soft that it was closer to wiping out dirt than to dust it off, but it was much better than before.

After a while, though not perfect, the visible foreign substances were removed. But I couldn’t take the scroll out right away. Because of the body rotting and the damp cave humidity, bone and paper were almost stuck together.

‘…what should I do?’

There was a high possibility that the paper would rip if it was taken out by force.

First of all, we need to get rid of the moisture.

The tributary cultural properties were very fragile, so they had to be handled carefully.

Originally, it was supposed to be embalmed and dried after being moved to an aseptic chamber, but it was nonsense here.

Thinking about how to get rid of the scroll, I looked around to see if there was anything useful for removing moisture. Then I found the fallen torch that the Crown Prince had thrown away.

‘That’s it.’

I brushed the cut hair roughly on the floor and quickly approached it. Then, after picking up the pieces of wood, I will crush the ends on the rocks.

The charred part of the fire was easily crushed. When the water gathered to a certain extent, I crouched down and scraped together with my hands.

Then I went back to where the remains were and gently rubbed the charcoal on the surface of the scroll.

“What else are you doing now?”

The Crown Prince, who was watching me busily alone, came up again and asked, of course.

“we’ll removing moisture so that we can easily remove the part that sticks to the bone.”

The Crown Prince, with a vague face, stared at my actions for a long time before opening his mouth.

“I don’t know why we have to go through such a cumbersome process. Why don’t we just cut the bones?”

“This is the only way to make sure that no bones, no paper, don’t get damaged as much as possible. I wish I had a tweezers or a four-sep or something..”
