In the rubble, I can see Luceriage falling on his back. A storm and a thunderstorm burst from nowhere. The whole body is torn and burnt - is that it? Or do you still have the power?

As he approached him as he set up his uroboros, he laughed with a look that even seemed calm.

"... although it's a fine concern. You win. I'm done."

"You demons... you always do"

Just do it. Disappears to my satisfaction alone.

"The death of a demon is just as good as being told with joy. In my case, I'm a little sorry to have left something behind. It's a promise."

Luceriage closes his eyes and reaches out as if trying to grab something. It becomes a golden glow from the ends of its hands and feet and dissolves in the wind.

"But well. You could go anywhere."

Put a smile on your mouth. Luceriage became a golden phosphor and scattered in the wind.

You said something meaningful and thoughtful, but after Luceriage disappeared, nothing was left.... did I do something before I got here?

"Theo!"

"Dear Theodore!

When I'm thinking about it, everyone comes running with a change of blood phase. Grace held her forehead and stopped her legs on the way, and Ashley came to me first.

"It's a terrible injury......! I'll treat you right away!

"Mm... sorry"

Well, I don't know if I can do it this time.

Regardless of the bleeding is stopped about the arm and shoulder wounds, as for the braking bumps on the tempest drive...... stopping the magic circulation now doesn't seem to make the damage stupid, so sit back in the corner of the square with it intact and get your coat off and healing magic done.

"We'll keep an eye on that side."

Sheila and Illumhilt are standing by near the entrance to the Spirit Palace.... Indeed. I still don't know what it is.

That brunette girl... she's gone. Are you in the temple? Or has he gone somewhere already?

When I solve the technique where I was holding it down with my shield when I treated it - there was a lot of bleeding, but soon Ashley will do the healing magic. Priority treatment from large wounds, then small wounds. He mouths a vial of magic potion along the way, closes his eyes even more and holds the magical light in his hand to continue the treatment.

"... Do you have any pain?

I try to gently grip my left arm and turn my shoulder......

"Yeah. Looks fine. Thanks, Ashley."

"Yes......"

He was stroked with a quiet fingertip at the blocked area of the wound. A little ticklish.

The blood on your body and clothes is magically washed away by your life. It looks like Grace is in trouble if he stays like this.

"Theo."

Grace approached me just after crude treatment and washing. Just a little bit of Zhu on his cheek... and he looks like he is exhilarated.

"Don't be too impotent"

"... Mm-hmm. I'm sorry about both of you. What about everyone? No injuries?

"I, just a little. But it's already blocked. No problem for everyone."

"Let's take a little break"

"Yes."

I can't go home without collecting the jewels, but I just fought the demon.

"What about Ill?

There was that brunette girl, so I think there's something I'm anxious about as an Illumhilt.

When asked, Illumhilt smiles back happily after a slightly surprised look.

"I'm fine. I think it would be a good idea if we had a proper attitude. 'Cause I knew I wasn't going the wrong way."

Really?

"The... Theo. Can I ask for my seal once?

Grace says. Maybe I have a pretty blood-sucking urge. Even as we continue to explore, we want to transform our impulses once and for all.

"Okay."

Put Cadkeus on Grace first to make the defense complete. Then I touched Grace's ring and activated the curse.

- As soon as possible, Grace is about to fall off her knees.

"Sort of. Are you okay?

"Yes. Hmm... a little, I'm losing my strength. Oh...... Theo"

If you support your body in a staggering manner, you will be embraced as it is.

Fingers were passed through my hair, stroking my cheeks and scratched areas.

Yeah...... In Grace's case, you can't do this in the open. When left to be, Grace turns her gaze to Ashley. Ashley smiled and nodded, hugging me together.

"When I return, so will Master Mallane..."

"Right. Let's all take our time."

They said that and were nodding at each other.

Calm your hips a little and let everyone rest before entering the inside of the Spirit Palace.

The structure inside the Spirit Palace is very simple. You can't get lost making it complicated in the first place. Because a wind containing magic blows from the back.

As countless gargoyles passed through the aisles lined with them, they went out into the large halls lined with columns. Altar at the back of the hall. Then a glowing jewel on the altar.

That girl, she's nowhere. I don't even see any signs of you coming in the way. I also thought it might be the Lord of the Spirit Hall of the Wind......

Judging by the fact that I'm caught in the memory of Illumhilt, maybe I'm more involved in the whole labyrinth.

Intense magic flow. As for the role of the treasure - it feels like you're gathering the power of the Spirit and sending it somewhere else. Is this the one who has a contract with the Spirits of the Wind?

"... to the royal castle - can I take it?

Yes, I put it in my mouth and took it close to the altar... nothing unusual happened. The breeze wraps around me, but I don't feel particularly bad. I even feel welcome.

According to King Melvin's story, the covenant ritual can only be performed when it is right. With the help of the stars, they call the four great spiritual kings to reinvigorate their strength so that the treasure does not lose its power.

Anyway, it seems important that the jewels themselves are in Term Wills.

Structurally, if only we were in Termwilds, the power of the collected Spirit would flow to the seal of the Temple of Moonlight.

In terms of security, this would be the best way to put it in the back of a sealed door during normal times... but the story changes while the door is open. Not to mention in the present situation where the devil is watching us.

"... looks fine. Then let's go home."

Hands on the treasure, looking back. Entrance to the hall. There - how long have you been there? That brunette girl stood. Look at the jewels I have, I don't see you looking particularly angry.

"You are..."

Illumhilt is breathtaking. You're still disgraced.

When I try to speak up, I nod quietly, then close my eyes and flip myself, as if to affirm my deeds. It seems that you can take it... but this is not a good story to end with. My role is also to bridge with her.

"My name is Theodor-Gartner. I am here as ambassador of the other world, in the name of King Melvin."

Speaking so, the girl's body shook tingly.

Are you waiting for me to say something, or don't move while I stop?

The girl gave directions and said she gargoyled the demon. I guess that's the assumption we should be talking about. That's not necessarily why I'm on the side of humans.

He's cooperating, but he doesn't seem to want to give us much information.

"If you don't want to talk about a lot, I won't force you to listen now. Can't you at least just tell me your name?

- Claudia.

Looking back, the girl names herself with a bell-ringing voice. Golden eyes caught me.

"... Claudia"

Illumhilt rebukes the name. Claudia tilts her little neck, says.

"As for the jewel - it originally belonged to you. Preserving the seal of the Moonlight Temple probably fits our purpose. So we're unblocking the protection here… that's all we're talking about."

... what I knew. I guess Claudia belongs to the labyrinth management side.

There's no doubt that you are referring not to "us" but to "humans".

Well, who is it? I don't feel like a demon.

"... do you know what is sealed in the Temple of Moonlight?

"With me, I don't know everything that's in the labyrinth, everything that happens. It's a treasure ball trapped in disaster, and the demons want it. That's all I know."

Is it because it is a seal created by the human side?

Then Claudia narrows her eyes and looks at Illumhilt.

"... Illumhilt. You are."

"Yes, sir"

Illumhilt nods with a strange face. I knew her name from the beginning.

"You shouldn't worry too much about your origins. There's nothing to talk about. You can live your life the way you want."

"Wow, I..."

Illumhilt leans down. Then I looked up and told Claudia.

"I still want to go to that village."

"... yes. It's an important place for you."

Claudia closes her eyes. In that mind, what do you think?

The body becomes thin and clear.

"Oh... you're out of time. I don't know if I interfered with the protection here. You guys better get out of here. Because the protection here will also move immediately to fulfill its original role."

"Out of time?"

"Yeah. For a while - I can't move"

Claudia's body gets thinner and thinner. And my voice became obscure.

"But don't you guys already know where and when we're going to see each other?

Leaving those words behind, Claudia's body was sumptuous and eventually disappeared.

Defense plays its part, right?

There's a lot to think about, but it looks like you should just get out of there before they attack you from Gargoyle on your way home.
