Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Uta's parents will be informed after this, so we will continue to talk as we understand the people who are there, including Uta herself.

Yukino's thoughts and the policy we are going to take will also be explained.

"Therefore, although the problem of the Unseen is not something that will be solved immediately, if you leave it alone, the skeletons will come out... and there is a risk that they will cause damage not only to the territory."

His Majesty Yoki and His Majesty Josiah, Lord Theodore. In addition, the inhabitants of the Underworld... now that we have a cooperative system in place, we believe that it is an opportunity to meet a thousand people. That is why the faith of all the people in the land becomes an important factor for the Lord of the Unseen to resist the curse. "

What has happened in the past for this reason? What did Kagiri think, and what thought did he use to invite his children to the unseen?

In addition, I tell the elders that Tendo and the other children were well protected and raised.

"There are many different kinds of beliefs." In this case, it would be more helpful if you diminished your awe and increased your gratitude. ”

Claudia closes her eyes as she sees the exchange.

"Uta-chan is getting better, and the children are growing up well. Besides, it's important to know the right information about the past.”

Elena agreed with Claudia. Fear is also a faith, but the original character of the keyri and the form of faith that accompanies it were not such in the past. That is certain from the memory of the festival and the words of Tendo and the others.

The form of faith that reinforces the curse tied to the key should be weakened as much as possible. It will be important in that sense to let all the children know that they are safe.

”... if that's the case, it seems better to take care not to blame everyone for talking to the parents of a child who hasn't returned from the underworld.”

Yoshikane says.

I think that would be better. Of course, you can't leave your children behind. The children invited by the unseen world are grateful to Lord Tendo. "

"The faith and feelings of the invited children are so strong that you can't scorn them."

I see...

The elders closed their eyes as they were convinced by the words of Gadakuni and Ichiemon. For the children who were invited to the unseen world, there was already gratitude for the key, faith in a good direction, and thoughts. That's why I can't scorn the feelings of my children.

From such a perspective, it becomes important to take care of the children in the underworld from the practical side.

It would be easier to take care of them from the standpoint of the elders if you told them about it. Rather than a dry talk... in this case, it would be a big part of caring for the children from free crabs and ichiemons.

I understand your story. When I heard that story, the Lord of the Unseen was nothing but our patron saint, and all the people who lived there would be our ancestors. ”

”It was a big story... but if you're sure of that story, we'll have been protected for a long time.”

The elders seemed surprised, but there was something that convinced them with their teachings from childhood... and they closed their eyes like that. For example, it is a place where people come from samurai families. That's where I fell down and built a hideout. It is said that teachings such as martial arts, body arts, and military arts are conveyed, and so is the part that has less contact with the outside world. It's gone missing, but so is the fragmented information about the key. The elders who have lived a long time and seen the village may be able to feel such a place.

"The origin of this village must be supported by this ancient document. I must tell you that this village and the imperial court have never been hostile."

I opened the ancient documents that Ichiemon brought, and said while showing the relevant parts to the elders.

”Oh... I wonder if that's what you're looking into?”

There's a way to keep in touch with people from afar. As a result of cross-referencing the information found in the Yin-Yang dormitory in the capital and hitting the literature, it is difficult. As for the samurai family who were hostile... it seems that they disappeared into the world of war. "

There's a description of that, too.

As a supplement to Ichiemon, Tadakuni showed a passage in the literature. Yoshikane is also familiar with the old literature because of her relationship with the pharmacist, and while looking at the ancient literature in the two commentaries, she is holding her eyebrows together with "I see...".

One of the incidents caused by the rampage of Kagiri... didn't reach the end of the warring samurai family. It's just... that's definitely been a big factor in reducing our forces. Especially... those with the magic technology packed in the back were perceived because of the curse, and Kagiri attacked with the highest priority. The damage would be considerable.

I should have tried to win, but I ended up with zero returns and a significant reduction in valuable personnel and power. As a result, they were decayed and destroyed by others.

In any case, it must have been a convincing explanation for the elders. The elders discuss it, saying that they want to discuss it because it is their own problem. Believing in and cooperating with the story seems to be a prerequisite for progressing the story. I guess it's still a big deal about the key. There may be a large part that can be realized because of the settlement of the descendants and blood relatives.

If there's anything I can do to help solve the problem, I'll talk to you.

Thank you very much. I'm thinking about how to tell everyone... but if you hear something and notice something, just say it.

There is a reply from the elder to the words of the freebie. Gadakuni and Ichiemon nodded and listened quietly to the exchange between Yukino and the others.

There are things I can and can't do because I'm an outsider... but I need an environment where I can talk to them.

However, it is still in the village. If you leave it to the elders, there will be no problem around here. The discussion also stopped early, and when each of the elders summarized who to tell, it was said that they would move to notify immediately.

Well then... thank you very much.

Welcome. Thank you for listening to me.

When the elders bowed, the freebie grew quietly thankful... and the elders quickly started to move. Yoshikuni goes to Uta's parents to explain. Maybe we'll be reunited after we've called our parents here.

Speaking of which...... I was taking a deep breath with my hands on my chest as if to distract tension.

Uta-chan, I'm with you, too.

Thank you, onee-chan.

Yukino and Uta smile at each other.

"Fufu, thank goodness."

"Hmm. I'm glad that the village is going to talk safely."

Irmhild and Sheila were smiling and nodding at it.

We're doing well here, so maybe the castle's magical architecture is next.

The process of taking care of the wreckage with the help of Takeru and the others was completed first. She laughed at Takeru and the others, saying, "Thank you for your cooperation."

That's why I'm moving on to the next task. Looking at the three-dimensional view, plan a plan with Tendo to transform the castle.

There is no change in keeping an eye on the movement with the crystal plate so that if something happens in the village, it can be dealt with immediately. It's unlikely that there will be any problems that will have to come to this point, but just in case.

The movement will continue in the village while we work on the magical architecture.
