Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

161 The work of ambassadors of different worlds

"That's why we have a dinner party date. Are you getting ready?

Tell everyone what Alfred told you about dinner party day.

"I ask the tailor for the dress. Should be ready by the due date. I'm gonna go check on the progress."

"I can't believe the royal castle... I'm nervous"

"I'm looking forward"

The dress is for Sheila and Illumhilt, then Serafina. Because if you're going to climb the castle on a sunny day, you may need to dress up quite a bit.

"Mm-hmm. Then I guess I'm fine. What about Claudia?

Claudia, if I may say who the meritorious man is in the Duobelis sectarian battle, but perhaps not all of them, that Claudia is not included or assumed.

I heard Claudia's plans because I thought she wouldn't want to show her face to the royal castle - she said.

"For dinner, I'd like to go, too. I think we should talk properly with King Verdogal ourselves. About the demons and with you."

"Is that okay?

Even if the Verdogal royal family has nothing to do with it directly, if it stems from the fact that once they are betrayed by humans for no longer trying to be involved outside the labyrinth... isn't it a big decision as Claudia to head out to the royal castle?

"There is no problem if we limit ourselves to those who reveal our identity rather than to those we meet… Fortunately, King Melvin seems like a wise king, and the covenant magic he made with the Verdogal royal family lives on. Because I can prove myself."

"When you say...?

"I can open the sanctuary door."

I see. That certainly can only be done by King Melvin and Claudia.

King Verdogal has made a covenant magic with Claudia by saying he will reign. If the kingdom wants to get the depths of the labyrinth, etc., this would conflict with the covenant.

Is it my job to set up a place to talk to King Melvin so I don't face the extra person?

As for how to respond to Claudia - as amicably as possible. That is why I have been entrusted by King Melvin. I have already told her that she is now able to gain cooperation in the battle against the demons and that she does not want to get too involved with the outside... but she will also have to talk to King Melvin about her engagement.

Claudia's telling herself she wanted to speak directly with King Melvin would have changed her relationship with me, and maybe it would have meant reaffirming the way the kingdom and the labyrinth interact. Sure, because with King Melvin's help, it would be easier to talk about the residents of Labyrinth Village.

"Okay. I'll fix the path so Claudia can follow her wishes."

"Yeah, I'm counting on you."

And he smiled at me. I just want to make sure I respond to trust.

That said, I would not be able to accept or prepare my mind for the royal castle side on that very day when I suddenly "brought him". If so, we need to go to the royal castle and talk to King Melvin.

"To some extent, do you mind telling King Melvin?

"Right. If it's any trouble, you can tell me everything."

"No, no. It's my job, too."

Because the work of ambassadors of different worlds has not changed.

"Then a little today, I'm going out to the royal castle"

"Okay. I'll take care of this."

Grace nods. Well, shall we leave Cadkeus?

"I am studying magic today because Master Rosetta is here"

Ashley says.

Ashley, who attends the Peresford school building, studies with Rosetta at home, which means the lecture behind healing magic.

Then Rosetta will be clear to Ashley all day today. If you still seem to be there when you return from the royal castle, let me tell you a handout for buying an empty house next door. You should be able to cross with someone who manages the house around here.

"What about Mallane? Want to come with me?

Asking Mallane, who was brushing Lavine's furrows, she gave a little thought and then smiled and shook her neck to the side. I guess I'm at home. Well... I always see Albert in the workshop.

That's why I took Lindblum quickly to Royal Castle.

Waiting through the usual salon, King Melvin comes.

"Oh, are you here? I heard about the labyrinth."

"Yes, it's a report about a girl who was thought to be the janitor side of the labyrinth."

"You were named Claudia. The relationship seems to be good..."

Yeah. Good is good.

"Actually, she wants to accompany the Knights to their opening dinner party. Regarding, I would like you to set up an attitude of acceptance for the day"

"It's also..."

King Melvin rounds his eyes.

"Doesn't mean you want to see a dinner party? I wonder if there's anything else we can talk about?

Exactly. King Melvin is a good guess.

Claudia also seems to know that if she were to marry me in the future, she would not remain unidentified, and it is up to her to tell King Melvin about the circumstances.

"I think it will be a story about the maze's formation or about wanting to confirm the royal intentions. Because she seems to be the Lord of the Labyrinth"

"I mean... you mean the person who made the deal with the royal family?

"Yes. In the meantime, I'm talking about myself."

and make King Melvin hear about her circumstances and engagement.

King Melvin seems just as surprised by everything.

"- In other words, will it be necessary to maintain the shape of the labyrinth as it is today? I have also thought about the involvement of the labyrinth and the goddess Shuas... well..."

"I'm sorry for the sudden talk. If you can't believe it, give me something to prove myself to..."

"No, it doesn't extend to that. That's what you said when you opened the sanctuary door?

"Yes."

"Then that would be enough if we also considered working together in the earlier battle against the Duobelis Church. If you can confirm that it is not surrogate for the rest, that's fine. If we were to have a labyrinth between the goddess and the royal family, we'd have a hard time."

I laugh bitterly like that. King Melvin did not ask about the history of his engagement. It's information I'm not supposed to know, so I know it's Claudia's idea.

"Whatever, aye. Okay. Let me give the rest a boost to that engagement story. But if it wasn't up to you to win the trust of the goddess, there's some flashbacks."

"My name is?

"I'm already engaged to Mallane."

"It's..."

King Melvin laughs.

You don't really need to think about running away, rebellion, etc. because even if you keep your mouth shut, you will become a relative?

"It is contractual magic, but therefore, unless there are any remaining flaws, neither can the goddess side rebel it, nor does it move that the royal family is in a position to unite Verdogal. In that sense, there is no need or point in doubting the rest or goddess. I know that from the ritual of national defense."

"I see..."

With the royal family in its role of keeping the labyrinth from spreading, and with my lineage that is to maintain the direction of the labyrinth. If this is a kinship, there's no need to rush anything as a royal family.

If the goddess can open the door to the sanctuary, it is proof that it is authentic, not surrogate. If it is, then there is no point in questioning a goddess who wishes to reign in the covenant, and the conclusion is that there is no fear of the royal power shaking.

"Verdogal is a rich and peaceful country because the labyrinth of grace is in its present form, but it is late. If that's what it takes to maintain it, then no. Tell the Goddess I look forward to seeing her on the day of her visit."

"Okay. Must."

Well...... All you have to do is wait for dinner party days.
