Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Is it time"

Grace asked me as I lined up on the doorstep with what I was taking.

"Yeah. I guess it's a good time."

"It would be nice to have a conversation."

And, Ashley.

"Yeah. But well, I don't think it's gonna be that much trouble because it's Albert's introduction. I don't have any other plans, and I'll be home by dinner later."

"Okay. We're going to spend the rest of the day at home."

"I've been embroidering lately, too. Grace is going to teach me how to sew."

Claudia says. I guess Mallane will join us. They smile at each other with pleasure.

"I wonder if me and Sheila are practicing instruments. Cyril's a good bug pipe, so I'm going to play with her."

"... a bug pipe. Centaur is going to be a painting."

Miss Cyril is a Centaur girl. He seemed eager to listen to the Illum Hilts play in the entertainment room, so I was wondering if they were interested, but sometimes Illum Hilts were originally residents of Labyrinth Village, and they're breaking it right into a circle.

"Sheila was looking for an instrument, wasn't she? You made up your mind?

Sheila also wanted to play with Illumhilt, and she's looking for an instrument that's on her.

"Mm-hmm. I tried to drum it"

I see. Sure, she's clever, so if she gets used to it, she'll improve quickly. When percussion enters, the music will also widen.

Because of this, it might be interesting to make a set of drum sets. Maybe Sheila will handle it.

"Sheila's improving fast."

"It's so accurate."

says Serafina on the shoulder of Illumhilt. Serafina may also spend the day listening to her playing practice.

"I couldn't really think of anything like this because I couldn't afford life before I met Theodore. I appreciate it."

"Mmm."

That's how Sheila thanked me face to face and scratched my cheek gently.

"I will proceed with instruction. I think it's the first thing that matters."

Is Cecilia the mentor of a servant? The residents of Labyrinth Village have lived on a self-sufficient basis, so they have little problem with household aspects such as cooking, laundry and cleaning. That's why they can't handle it so much. Michaela was leaking the feeling that it was similar to when Grace was in that sense.

Michaela and the residents of the Labyrinth Village are also going to train in some of the art of escort. When you go out of town in the future, you can protect yourself even if you have trouble. Sure, it's necessary, so let's just keep moving.

Bring the billiard table and dartboard ones prepared at the front door into the carriage with a revulsion.

Alfred has prepared and brought a carbonated beverage maker, shake ice machine, etc. to the alarm system.

"- Okay. Then I'm gonna go out for a little while."

"Yes. Welcome aboard"

Everyone drops me off and gets in the carriage. The North Side is the way to drive the carriage to the Golem.

The meeting place with Alfred is one of the chambers of the Commercial Guild Assembly.

The assembly center is a building with a disappointing impression of stone construction. Park the carriage in front of the rally point and carry the necessary luggage inside the rally point by levitating it. I guess Alfred is already here because a familiar carriage had stopped.

I hear this is a place where artisan parents and merchants get together and have a chance to talk.

"My name is Theodor-Gartner, and I'm supposed to have a meeting here today,"

"Yes, we're here to talk."

An old man nods. Apparently, it's not the receptionist, it's the janitor at the rally point.

She even leads me to the meeting room, so when I floated the item I had brought with me in a revulsion, she looked somewhat surprised.

"Oh. Theo, are you here?"

Alfred grinned as he was put through the room. Talcott, a bodyguard, is with him. Then there's one person I met for the first time. Maybe she knows Alfred.

It's a woman with an eye band. It was more like an adventurer than a merchant.

"I'll be the first to see you, Ambassador. My name is Miriam."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Theodor-Gartner. Nice to meet you today."

and shake hands after introducing yourself. Apparently, I was the last.

"Mmm. Late?

"No, it's still a little early for the covenant. I hear Miriam got here early."

... I see. Well, it seems that the conversation can proceed smoothly.

"Mr. Miriam was a pedestrian... and eventually he wanted to be based in Termwilds. It's just a good time to be back at Termwilds. I think the story would have been a while ahead if it hadn't been. During the journey, it was also Mr. Miriam who picked up Viola, who had been attacked by demons and injured, and deposited her with the blacksmith's parent, whom he knew at Termwilds. Get acquainted when I'm looking for a skilled craftsman."

Oh. Were you acquainted with Viola on the connection? His face looks huge, and he seems to have an understanding of the adventurers. There's going to be a connection with the Adventurer Alliance...

You know why Alfred introduced me.

"I have also gathered the funds that have been amassed at the merchant, so it was time for me to set up my own shop. Trading with adventurers all the time while repelling demons and bandits is not enough, no matter how many lives you have. Life itself is fun."

Miriam jokes with others - but the impression of being close to an adventurer is probably not wrong. So does the feel of your hand when you shake your hand, and so does your body. Perhaps I have a martial arts mind.

Being close to adventurers means...... you will also have some deep understanding of friendly demons.

"Was I? Now, I want you to look at what you've made quickly."

As for this one, I want someone who can be trusted to take on sales, sales, accounting, etc. to get the items I made into circulation.

Given Viola's connection and the fact that he helped her and even took care of her afterwards, he would certainly have no problem with that.

Well, there are a lot of other things you can do, like understand what I make, think in a way that fits my purpose. Okay. Do you want me to have a look at what I brought in, and at the same time, I want you to try it out and interact with me?

"This is what happens when you put a chunk of ice in here and turn the handle..."

and move the shake ice machine and pass it to Miriam with syrup on the shake ice served in the vessel.

"... thank you"

Miriam carries shaved ice into her mouth with a spoon. That's a pretty serious look.

What does it feel like? I played with cards, darts and billiards to the point of touching them a little, then proceeded with the alarm device, food related and presentation. At first it was Miriam, who was impressed, but gradually had a small mouth count, and his expression became more serious.

"... did you say the ambassador made these"

"Alfred and Viola took shape when it came to magic props,"

He had some thought-provoking look on his face, but suddenly, Miriam looked up.

"Awesome...... This is amazing! I've probably been to various places and handled various things, too, but I've never been shown these new pieces at once! Not to mention that the ambassador made it!

That's what I'm saying, it's looming.

"Ko, will you let me handle this?

"Yeah, yeah. I'm hoping you'll understand the value even if I am..."

"Oh, I'd love to. I want you to lean all over your body and let me hit things!

Ah...... There seems to be no problem. Miriam is making her eyes shine like a child.

I was expecting the merchant's kind to be a belly searcher, but it seems to be a slightly different race. It was a cool first impression, but some aspects seem to be surprisingly childish.

"Please calm down, Mr. Miriam"

"Excuse me..."

That's where the restraint from Alfred comes in, and Miriam takes my hand off and sits in the chair with an aside. You think you've exposed yourself to ugliness, it's getting slightly smaller.

"I wonder, Theo, as for you?

And I laughed bitterly when Alfred pointed me at the water.

"Yeah. As long as Mr. Miriam is good, I'd like to ask you"

"Is it true!?

"Yes. Let's pack up the details now. Best regards,"

"Thank you......!

Shake hands again.

"It's good to have a conversation."

Alfred smiles.

"No, it's Alfred's introduction, and I thought it would get entangled. But I've got another hidden ball. Have you decided before I show it to you?"

"... what did you make?

"No, I'm going to make it"

and remove the bag with sugar from the baggage. It would be more impactful to demonstrate it.

"Sugar......?

"Yep. Here's how..."

Nodding at Miriam tilting her neck. Heat it with fire magic, melt it, then wind it up with wind magic, thread it up and wrap it around a stick of wood.

Sugar dissolved and stretched like yarn wraps around the stick - complete with cotton bread.

The principles themselves are simple, and I wonder if it would be easy to propagate them. Well, there may be a few things to work out, such as materials and shapes.

"And well, this is how you can eat sugar like cotton. I was wondering if coloring would make a difference in appearance."

When I showed them together, they were all doing it and circling their eyes.

"This is..."

Miriam receives cotton noodles from me in horrible ways.

Carry a little chisel into your mouth. His mouth takes the form of a grin as he snorted and opened his eyes. That's a good response.

"When I get back to the workshop, I'm gonna have to figure out a way to propagate."

And Alfred smiled bitterly.
