Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Five Hundred Eleven: The Trial of the Gate

It was a large space.

It's much wider than the space where the bleak was forming the "nest”. Originally, it's a ruin with high ceilings. The aisle is wide across, and even a warrior glyph would be able to afford to pass. The halls that have passed so far were larger than such passages, but several times larger than those halls were in this space. It was nearly twice as tall as the ceiling, and the width was more than that. Unlike previous rooms, it is not a square space. rectangular, with a huge gate sitting at the front.

The gate just had the impression that it would overwhelm the others. The material seems to be the same as walls and floors, but unlike walls and the like, changes had been made to the surface. There are complex ups and downs, and that looks like a tattoo. A huge treasure ball is embedded in the center of the gate, which alone gives the impression of being different from the walls and floors.

"There's a gate, which means there's a way ahead, right?

"I guess."

"I don't know how to open it."

Miliu looked at the gate intrigued. Maybe her intellectual appetite will stir up. Seeing it like that, I think she's also a biological armed summoner. Armed summoners are creatures who must not fail to drill every day. Failure to drill is said and believed to result in loss of power as soon as possible. Those who aspire to be armed summoners, without exception, are keen on daily research and training, otherwise they cannot be first-class armed summoners. Miliu became an armed summoner, even if it's not what she wants, which means she deserves to be called first-rate, which means she deserves it.

Also, she has Leviath's "Know”. Nor could it be denied that the knowledge and memory accumulated over the centuries was a source of her desire for knowledge.

"It's the investigation team's job to look into that. We're escorts."

Setuna was judged by the wall as she looked sideways at the members of the investigation team who embarked on the investigation. There was no sign of the Imperial Demon or any other creature, and I could safely await the findings. That's why I never let go of a black spear. It's the five senses that hold the black spear. Reinforcements due to side effects keep you for a few seconds even if you let go of your subpoena weapon. Just a few seconds. I can't count on it.

"How about your husband destroys it?

"You're gonna ruin the ruins."

Sheila was stunned by Rem's suggestion.

"I thought it was a good idea."

"That's the worst idea I've ever had."

"Oh my..."

Setuna had no choice but to speak up to the way Rem lost his word and stood up.

"It's a last resort."

"My lord..."

"What the fuck?"

"Kind."

"Don't be so thrilled about that."

The change of heart in Setuna has greatly influenced the inability to pay for the lem that has been deliberately hugged, because of it, or to be sinister.

"Yes, don't stick around with that. Setsuna is mine."

"What are you doing?"

Sheila had to be stunned by Miliu this time.

Wolk looked at it like that, but all he had to do was snap his little neck.

Investigations by Will-Weed et al. never made progress.

No matter where you look at the gate, you don't know anything. That would be the case, too. It's a subtly different site from a “buried civilization." Based on the information on those “buried civilizations” was a lame story.

Nevertheless, it is a fact that there is no other information to be investigated, and the members of the investigation team showed an attitude of not giving up, even though they were on the way.

Setuna and the others continued to wait for the investigation to proceed, having a stomachache with a meal prepared for us by the members of the investigation team. In the meantime, although we remain vigilant, there was no confirmation of any presence other than that of the investigative team.

As Will said, there is no such thing as an Imperial Devil's “nest” other than that “nest”. He also said that the destruction of the “nest” was likely to have caused all the Imperial Demons lurking in the land to escape. Instincts should have determined that it was an anomaly for the Imperial Demon that the "nest” would be destroyed, and that it was more dangerous to remain on the spot than the “nest”, which was also a danger to life, had been destroyed. It means that in a few days, or even decades, the Lord of another Imperial Demon may visit to build a "nest”. At least, they're safe right after they destroy the nest.

Sometimes it seemed that the members of the investigation team were able to conduct a thorough investigation. It is somewhat of a rush to think that there may be an Imperial Devil, but there is no need to be frightened of anything now that the "nest” has been destroyed and there is no chance that the Imperial Devil will appear. There is no possibility that there may be something else besides the Imperial Demon, but so far it does not seem to be the case. If there had been such a thing, it would have clashed with the breeks earlier. There were no signs of combat to this point. There are also signs that there was another creature besides the Imperial Demon.

Nevertheless, the investigation did not progress, and the gates, without even saying yes, all the time passed. There was nothing the Setuna and the others could do, nothing more than to blur and spend time watching the sights in the ruins unchanged.

"That's the one in the ruins, but sometimes it's not too bad to relax like this"

Rem snorted as Sheila stretched.

"That's right. The silence of the ruins has a different taste than in the hustle and bustle of the King's capital."

"Hey. I need some time to enjoy Setuna like this."

"You know what?"

Setsuna was just stuck with Miliu more aggressively than usual. Sometimes dozens of members of the investigation team are working hard to find a way to open the door. Even Setsuna can't do much good if she is hugged by this sight. I felt so sorry for the members of the investigation team, but that's why some of me can't get in the way.

Let's accept their thoughts as they are.

The consciousness in Setuna has changed that way.

"Not bad, nothing."

Miliu didn't seem to care at all about Setuna's reaction or how the members of the investigation team were doing. In fact, I couldn't help but care less about the members of the investigation team. Setuna and the others don't know anything about the ruins. As for the investigation, besides leaving everything to them, the Setunas will have to wait for the results. Setuna and the others are on their own no matter how they use that waiting time. Of course, you shouldn't do anything distracting about the members of the investigation team, and you don't seem to be trying to do just about any milieu that far. She can also, to some extent, read the air of the place.

"Why don't you learn from Master Miliu, too, Sheila?

"Hey, what are you doing!?

"Yes! Setsuna is just for me now!?

When Sheila blushed at Rem's unexpected remarks, she let go of the face Miliu had buried in Setuna's chest and accused Rem. Small poke at Rem's head.

"Who's dedicated to you?"

"Yes, they do!

"Yes."

And it was a rare sight for Urk to follow Sheila. As for Urk, I guess it was hard to admit that Setuna was dedicated to Milyu.

"Uh, no?

"... Dedicated. Bye."

"But no."

Setsuna noticed herself unable to react negatively to Miliu, who somehow became childish and sweet, and flashed. The impact of the Ragna loss was too serious. Setsuna can only accept the selfishness of one of her loved ones right now.

"Dear Setuna, may I?

"Oh, yes."

Will Weed calls me back. Peeling Miliu from her body, she looked like she was about to cry.

"Miliu, I'll see you later."

"Er... that would be nice later"

"The Cash One"

"Dear Sheila, enjoy yourselves later."

"What is it!?

"The rest of the fun?

Turn your back on the usual sight of Sheila raising her bare voice with an extra word and turn back to Will. The non-Will members of the investigation team are discussing the gate with a somewhat serious look in front of it.

"So what did you find out?

"No, I have no idea."

He shook his head like he was in trouble.

"I have no idea how this object opens or closes because I think it's a gate. I don't see any joints in the gate, I don't see any keyholes or anything... or anything like a trick linking up with the gate anywhere in this space"

"You're doing great."

"Well, in short, it will be."

"So how about your husband destroys it?

"I thought about it, too, but for now, once we get back on the ground, tomorrow, we want to continue our internal exploration and investigation from another route"

Another route would mean a crossroads along the way. The Setunas have come this far straight, but there is no doubt that a long passage continued to the left and right of the crossroads as well. I guess I won't go back that far right now and continue the investigation because I took into account the time leading up to this gate and the time of the investigation. I spend quite a bit of time here. Keeping the investigation going means spending the night in the ruins. Of course, considering the possibility that the ruins are vast and preparing for them, the crossroads were close to the entrance and exit, and it was not bad to get out of the ground once we were going to explore another route. If you are going to spend the night, it would be better to sleep in the camp near the ruins entrance and exit, both physically and mentally.

"You mean there might be a scheme to open this gate on another route?"

"Yeah. Because it's a famous story that“ buried ruins ”have such tricks."

"Okay. Shall we return to the ground for once?"

"Yes, I will tell everyone, and so will Lady Setuna."

"Yes."

Setsuna nodded, but there was nothing like preparation, Setsuna's luggage, etc., to say nothing. Drinks and food are being transported by members of the survey team. The role of the Setunas is to guard the investigation team and to concentrate on the battle, thus disturbing the battle

"Then you've just come to enjoy Setsuna."

"That must satisfy you enough."

"Yes, it is."

I can't help but think of Sheila's sarcasm, which seems to be Miryu.

"I don't know, it hurts the ruins."

"That's what it is."

"What secrets do you have at that gate?"

I couldn't help but wonder what sights were waiting for me on the other side of the gate that stood looking back. It's not impossible to smash it with a black spear, as Rem thought. The ruins survive hundreds of years ago to this day, and if they do not corrode, they do not see one scratch. But it's hard to imagine it's strong enough to be indestructible with black spears.

Setuna walked among the members of the fact-finding team cleaning up equipment and tools for the investigation and approached the gate. The gate is huge. That's what I find difficult to think of as something for humans. I imagine it is just the right size for the descendants of giants like Griff, possibly the ruins of the giants, etc. Nevertheless, if it was Ragna's assessment that even Griff was the size of a giant baby, and assuming it was a giant institution, it's odd. Although the possibility that the descendants of the giants were besides the glyphs and that they created such ruins cannot be denied.

With that in mind, I see a gem embedded in the center of the gate. Huge gems just seemed to be worth a hell of a lot. It's a transparent gem, and if you stare at it, you're going to see it through to the back of the gem. Yes, it was when Setuna thought about it. Setuna saw the light run among the gems.

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?

Miliu, who was right behind me, looked strange at Setuna's reaction.

"Did you see that now?

"What?

"That jewel glowed."

"Glowed?

"I didn't see anything."

I couldn't even see it in my eyes.

"Isn't that Setuna's mistake?

"Misunderstood -"

It was then that Setsuna was flabbergasted by everyone's reaction.

Light ran through the immense jewels embedded in the center of the gate. The light emitted even more intense light and smeared Setuna's retina white, wondering in an instant if it depicted a complex and detailed pattern.

"- Yikes...?

Setuna was wrapped up in discomfort as she continued to say as much in the flash. It was a different feeling. Not only vision anointed with light, but hearing, tactile, and olfactory - all sensations are forcefully twisted, creating vomiting in the illusion of being eagled through the gut. That was extremely similar to what it felt like when transferring space. Disconnection from the world. Freedom from gravity. A sense of levitation, and then gravity again, returning to the world.

When the light that caught my sight went out, the white space was wide open.

Spatial transfer.

Setuna was alert to gripping black spears as well as realizing that there was no one else around her. Without Miliu, Rem, Sheila and Urk, I would not have seen him as one of the members of the investigation team. No sign of it.

It is extremely likely that only Setuna was involved in the phenomenon of spatial transfer.

Bright white space.

The floor at your feet is the same as the floor of the ruins you've been looking at so closely. Hard floor with no pattern whatsoever on the surface. You can't see the ceiling over your head, front, back, left, right, you can't see the walls anywhere. It means that no walls or ceilings exist, at least to the extent that they can be recognised by Setuna's supersenses. Anything but the floor just looks white and cloudy.

(Where am I?

The functionality planted at that gate activated and forced Setuna into another space, no doubt.

Is it inside the ruins, or is it a completely different place?

Setuna noticed signs shaking from overhead as she grinded her senses too far and flew back. It came down, crimson. A whip-like slaughter strokes and cleaves the floor. Three more killers flesh out from the rear and left and right. Left forward, towards the blank of intent to kill, jump. And understand. It was black that came from the rear, white from the right hand and gray from the left.

There are four enemies.

That was also a familiar face.

The four of us were playing until just now.

"You guys...... what the hell are you doing?

Setuna was confronted by four men: Miliu, Rem, Sheila and Urk.
