Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician
114 Exposure
First queen Milanese to King Melvin. Below Prince Josiah, royalty lives side by side.
Sometimes Queen Milene was dressed at night, and the place was moved to the dining room.
Halper was placed on the table in the possession of the assassins...... the dining room was filled with an unusual sense of urgency.
"Father, what is this situation?
Prince Josiah frowns. I guess I thought it was an emergency. Unlike when they call me to the bedroom, when I show up in the dining room, I'm hanging a cane on my hips.
"Even then I would have seen it in the bedroom. It's a substitute for an outsider who tried to break into the mansion. He was repelled by those who packed him in the mansion, and now he's shifting to the dock."
King Melvin answers quietly.
To be clear - the mastermind is already packed.
If you go back to Termwilds and do a lot of research, you'll get proof too. Automatically lose the mastermind when you leave like this. In other words, this is a situation where you have to think about how to escape or kill the royals from here on out.
And we want a rationale for taking away freedom of movement on our way home. I want to make sure it's black without magic interrogation, more than just to argue that I'm going to fall for torturing the assassins and letting them throw up. Maybe there's more than one mastermind if that's possible.
The killer has another trump card. M.O. when Mallane. Embrace or threaten the magic inquisitor.
That's why we mix lies that only the killer dares to understand in the story. It's all a provocation, a fishing needle, a trap.
"This weapon, it's got some kind of crest on it."
Princess Stephania takes the halper and looks at the crest section.
"That's the crest of the Duobelis."
Prince Roy, sitting across the street, closed his eyes and supplemented with his arms.
The crest itself definitely belongs to the Order. Weapons are also a substitute for whatever they like to use. It's just - even though it was a standard straight sword they were using when they came into possession of these weapons.
I mean, these items would be for disguise work. For example, the body of the victim left at the scene should be stuck in the eye.
What do we even have props like this to tailor to Duobelis' work for?
That's because after killing a disturbing royal, even if he becomes king himself, the killer of the assassination will need it outwardly.
If we are to condemn King Melvin, who lays down his reign, there must be no good motive there. If that's, for example - an easy to understand cult named Duobelis, there's no need to go around this and speculation about the motive. I don't even need a magic interrogation. It's very convenient for you to get caught up in the killer role.
"The Duobelis Church... why are you on this island?
Prince Helfried asks King Melvin with his neck tilted.
... Prince Hellfreet is also someone who, like Albert, can't make these kinds of plans. After Rosemary's loss of legs and claustrophobia, his sister's faction has disintegrated, and Prince Hellfleet's position within the royal palace is not good.
He stopped at me because he was shocked that things were too different from before when he came back from study abroad.
You will need your own territory or direct reports to prepare you for this. It is easy to understand the motives for the heavy use within the kingdom in return for letting them help you kill royalty... because there are too many returns.
Similar to Hellfreet. We should also exclude the Queen Milanese, who usually never leaves the rear palace. Lady Millène at the time quietly refrains beside King Melvin. I have a sense of urgency in my expression, but I have no weak impression. Looks like he's behaving like a temperament.
"As for the Duobelis Church... I have the information that the Kingdom of Verdogal is rebelling against the demon killing that has left the fiery Zevion"
So, I guess you just let the assassin go.
Princess Stephania frowns uncomfortably and puts the halper on the table.
"No, wait. Let's get to the point where they're sending assassins. But on this island? Are you after the day we're staying?
"... there's an inside man in the kingdom."
Prince Roy answers Prince Josiah's words.
"It might be a little early to think so."
That's where Albert changed direction.
"In the first place. Because you had a weapon engraved with the Duobelis' crest, and you can't say that's not a disguise?
"... wait, Albert. You know what that word means...?
Prince Josiah notices the meaning behind the words and opens his eyes. In other words - it suggests that he was targeted himself and that his body is likely the culprit.
As a natural consequence - the likely culprit would be Princess Stephania and Prince Roy, both of whom had guessed it again and kept their eyes round.
"That possibility should also be taken into account," he said.
That's probably because it's Albert. Everyone noticed that they were talking about Mallane and the Third Queen, and no one was embarrassed by the thought of being disrespectful.
"... there's no evidence that it's a disguise, is there?
After a short silence, Prince Roy says.
"Oh, yeah. It's possible that it's really a denomination."
"I'd like to hear more about the man who seized it."
To the words of Prince Josiah, King Melvin nods.
"Fine. Mathius, come in."
And where I was called, I went inside the cafeteria, and I prayed.
"My name is Mattius, my servant"
I can see that everyone's gaze has gathered.
"Did a child like this seize the killer?
"This kid, sure... was he with Albert?
Prince Josiah and Princess Stephania face to face.
"Matius is a servant, but because he stands very sword arms. I also hired escorts."
Albert's description goes in. I don't have Uroboros right now. He is putting a sword on his lower back beforehand. Because the mastermind also knows that there are boundaries and the magic cannot be used, to give some realism to the story without enlightening me as to who I am.
"Matthius, tell me more and let me hear it."
"Yes. The water in His Highness's room was cut off, so I tried to draw water and a suspicious man snuck in through the back door of the building. We seized it on the spot and I.D. 'd it... and he was in possession of the weapon."
Let me say it with the firmest face I can.
"But - I don't think I'm a bad guy, I'm not a denominational person."
"Why do you think so?
"I didn't use Halper, because I was using Longsword.... so - uh"
So I stare. I let my lack of location clog my words. Look over at the people in line and let them lean down in anxiety.
"I don't mind. Alleged"
"I hurt the killer a little bit, and the killer said the name of the mastermind."
"Why have you kept quiet until now?
Let the words of King Melvin bow your neck.
"Oh, well - I'm afraid so"
Besides, make them stink when they're high profile.
"Who is it?
"Uh, the..."
- No, wait.
That's what I said, someone blocked my words.
"In the first place. That word is not necessarily true. It is possible that a lousy person is talking about getting out of it in an attempt to fall for someone. Those bad guys, we should also find out in a magical interrogation if Mattius isn't lying."
Because you're certain I'm mixing lies, that's a strong thing. Did you even assemble it in your head in a formula that rubs sin against Albert?
At the time the denomination's name came out of the assassin, it had some anticipation.
- Second prince Roy. Dominated near the southern border, perhaps the most duobelice of princes and princesses. He also told me that he had received information that the Order was in motion from King Melvin.
The embrace of guards deployed on the island. Or confuse those who breathed into the guards. Preparing for the area… even if others have been able to prepare for it for a long time.
Sealed halpers, etc...... nothing but Prince Roy can be prepared inside.
Later - it was a question of whether Princess Stephania was also involved... and she didn't even seem to know the crest of the denomination.
You don't have to act unless you know the crest on this point. Because masterminds want to deflect suspicion by making the denomination guilty.
"I don't mind that. May I give you the name of the killer?
"Fine. Let me hear it."
Prince Roy even feels spared, he says.
I - I read the names written there, looking at the magic comms screen.
"Desmond-Bayette. Powell-Colligan...... uh, then"
To that name, only Prince Roy's complexion changes.
I made it here, too. That's why I was guiding Prince Roy in the direction of letting him use the Inquisitor.
Perhaps the enemy targeted when the king would be absent.
On the Term Wills side, Sheila and the others have contacted us that they have seized the bender who tried to kidnap the magic interrogator's daughter. Let him stake out around the Inquisitor's house or tail his family.
If I had netted it, it would have taken a long time. So not cuddle, blackmail. Then it's a simple story to attach the cooperation of the magic interrogator, and you can get the real name of the executor out of the magic interrogation and get in touch with him.
"So..."
Read all the names and make Prince Roy smile deliberately.
"You - Mama,"
"... Roy?
Princess Stephania leans her neck in surprise at Roy's unusual way of reacting.
Roy doesn't know anything about magic comms. If you were to "know from the beginning" the perpetrator of the kidnapping, how would you interpret it? Decide that you knew and were danced. We'll have to.
"Ha-"
On Roy's mouth, a gruesome grin.
Now, if Roy reaches out to the halper in front of you, it's stuffed. Cadkeus is supposed to skewer his arm from the bottom.
but Roy puts his arm over his head as if to surrender.
chills. The expression is not the floating of a man who gave up.
"Come. Cast Eater"
Break through the ceiling. Something pops into the dining room. Before I could figure out who it was, I also stepped in front of Prince Roy as he drew Uroboros.
A silver glowing corpse flies in and falls into Roy's hands. Moving to poke the cutting edge of my sword at Princess Stephania in front of me with a laugh - Cadkeus lowered Princess Stephania backwards from chair to chair so that I could slip onto my desk and take it in Uroboros.
Princess Stephania is intact. And we're already in an attitude where Cadkeus guards.
"Shit."
Roy seems to have made it a priority to rebuild his posture. When I pound my tongue, I fly big back.
Perhaps - a demonic sword similar to Uroboros. Did you say cast eater? If I were to bring it into this situation, it would be the antimagician's weapon first.
"... Roy, you..."
Princess Stephania has no words. Prince Josiah has also lost his word.
"Sorry, sister. That's what happened. I'm behind in qualities and sequences, and I can't be king. I thought it would be better if it was Rosemary or the devil, because I don't sneak around with my hands."
Roy laughs. In its hands is the devil's sword shining in silver.
"... why?
King Melvin's short question. Roy answers with a smile on his face.
"I want to fight."
I said that with my shoulders up. Prince Josiah rounds his eyes to see if he even knows anything about Roy's words.
"Our country with the Great Labyrinth has long been better off than the surrounding countries in terms of resources and technology. That is notable, especially in the South. If it's an easy fight to win, you just keep doing it. That's why I came. I have a contract with the labyrinth, so if I don't continue to reign, etc., I have treasure and rot."
An imbalance in power causes war, or what?
Maybe even the information that the denomination is hostile to the Kingdom of Verdogal and me is true... so I figured I could rub my sins against the denomination as long as it was accompanied by the reality. What about military intervention in the South on the grounds of hostility?
"Father can't let exploration in. The way we talked about it, it doesn't seem to work even when my brother or sister is king. Then you can be me."
"... for that reason, take Mallane - Mother."
Albert says, in a voice that seeps through his anger.
For the first time - I think I've seen Albert's dark emotions.
Until now, Albert has been killing and restraining his emotions. I've moved to protect my sister.
A glance at Albert like that makes Roy laugh with his teeth peeled out.
"That was a failure. I'm the one who made it run, but it was the servant who made the wrong amount. Don't worry, I took your mother's revenge."
"You...... ugh"
... he said he was the one who sealed his mouth.
When Roy turns to me, he turns his grin off and stares at me.
"I found out who you are."
"Then you know what I'm trying to say?
"Saana."
Roy flaunted his shoulder. You won't have to let me ask you why.
Anyway - there's no way this guy's gonna find value in my purpose.
It just makes me uncomfortable where I exchanged words. I set up Uroboros without further ado.
