Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"A little, okay?

Elliot says where the story came from.

"What is it?

"You must also go from me to Zadias to report."

Hmm. After this, Princess Stephania's shadow fighters are supposed to head to the inn.

If the situation calms down, is it a natural flow to go to Zadias from Elliot as well?

"Do you or do they tell you to take the mask?

"No. Ningro, you're about to be told not to take off your mask too much."

You'd want to avoid exposing Caexgem to public if you tried it from Zadias.

"... for once, you might want to disguise yourself somewhat"

Just in case. Turning her gaze to Rosemary, she nods.

"Yeah, I'm buying a similar gem from an alchemist's shop."

Yeah. Let's get them to wear jewelry. Polish and fix with soil and water magic so that it has a shape similar to that of Caexgem. Various parts will be packed assuming a conversation between Elliot and Zadias during processing.

"As for the companions of the Marquis of Gilbolt… please mark them as headed in certain directions of Belliondola. I don't mind in the form of hearsay from the Marquis of Jilbolt, but it would be reasonable that he said he was going to meet an old familiarity because he grabbed some interesting information at Termwilds"

"Okay."

There is no need to elaborate on the history of this area. Because even if Alverinde's behavior is somewhat unnatural, there is no way he can tell Elliot or the Marquis Gilbolt the details.

If you let the information obtained by the demonic group entanglement of the example flicker, Zadias himself will read the Alvelinde's actions in depth. It would also be discernible whether Zadias knew who Alverinde was around there.

"Sheila, get the adhesive thread."

"Mmm."

Using the adhesive thread of the arachnearing, apply the gem to Elliot's forehead with the mask removed.

Hmmm.... have you come to a point where you wouldn't know if you didn't observe closely nearby?

"I will accompany Cadkeus. I know what's going on there, so if you feel any danger, pull back. In that case, we're going to rescue you."

"Okay."

"Do you have a map of the town?

"Yes, we have it."

Marquis Jilbolt brings a map. I guess you know the importance of local interests just because you have intelligence units. Good hand spin.

"The rendezvous point is near the Sage's Academic Company… I'd prefer a place that doesn't go unnoticed"

"If so, what about here, etc."

"Right...... right. I think it's good here."

Have an emergency meeting while looking at the map and stick Cadkeus to Elliot.

"Then I'll go"

"Be careful, Brother Elliot"

"It's okay. This is still a nobleman's end. I don't think I can do one of them."

Elliot smiles back at Ashley and wears a mask, he weaves his surcoat and heads to the courtyard. As he jumped up across Saphir the Hippogriff, he flew straight to the Sage's League of Scholars.

"I'll be ready to move soon, too."

Claudia says.

"Please, I'll let Term Wills know what's going on."

In case you want, you can even use your hands to attract them, wrap them up, and fly them to the labyrinth with metastatic magic. Nevertheless, don't bother beating up one Zadiaz. Metastatic magic takes the form of abducting Prince Wang with metastatic magic.

I don't mean to make Verdogal's relationship with Sylvatria worse.

Even if we eventually crush Zadias, what matters is the process leading there. Ideally, you should be on the right track, and then you can reveal it.

"This, Sir Benedict"

As Elliot descends with Saphir in front of the premises of the Sage's Scholastic Union, the gatekeeper's soldier greets him.

"Thank you. Is His Highness Zadias coming?

"Ha. I'm at the tower. Please wait at the hotel."

"I understand."

The Xuelian Union is surrounded by high walls. There was a small, maintained forest on the property. The promenade continues, a lush park or something... with a quiet atmosphere isolated from the outside world.

... The Sorcerer of the Societies lives here, you said. So this is going to be my mother's home?

Looks like facilities are dotted all over the property. The magic research facility is still... concentrated on that part of the tower, I guess.

The figure of a mage. Some magic knights wrap around black armor. Although it also looks like Zadias and the Black Knights are based.

Elliott does not go to the tower behind the property, but is taken to a hotel room just off the gate.

After Elliot waited in the room for a while, the door was opened without even knocking. A man in good shape enters the room with a grin on his mouth.... That's Zadias.

"This is His Highness Zadias."

Elliott greets the entrance, which has not been courteous or anything, with courtesy from the outset, without protesting.

I also thought for a moment you had come in to perceive Elliot's disobedience... but apparently that's not what it is. I don't even have one of my escorts.

Is Zadias in his mid- to late twenties? Middle meat middle back.... from my physique it seems like I have a martial arts appetite.

"Shall I hear the report? What about the example woman?

"Ha. I saw her accompany in Marquis territory. But she herself seems to have rented a carriage from the Marquis and headed somewhere else. We also confirm the company of the Marquis of Gilbolt and the First Princess of Verdogal, His Highness Stephania."

"Hmm?"

Zadias raises a single eyebrow and looks surprised.

I'll give you information from Elliot here on Princess Stephania's visit. If Zadiaz returns to the Imperial Castle and receives word from the Imperial Castle, he will know anyway.

"His Highness Stephania seems to have come to pay his respects to His Majesty Eberberberbert."

"... from an apostle who came to Verdogal before, you mean my father's condition was passed on"

"I came back to Vinesdora with the Marquis and His Highness Stephania as escorts on the road."

"... Hmm. Leave Stephania alone first. Tell me more about that woman."

Zadias seems to have cared more about Alverinde than Princess Stephania. Encourage Elliot to follow.

"I thought she was going to accompany the Marquis again too...... she's taking the carriage west because she's got business. The Marquis tells me you're going to meet an old acquaintance."

"West...?

Zadias abominably distorts his expression. Put your arms together, put your hands on your chin, and you seem to be conceiving.

"... would it have been better to have been more informed? From the swordsman of the escort, I seemed quite alert."

"No. I'm sure you didn't give that order."

"Here's your mouth."

"Fine. That woman and her escort are not my subordinates, and the deal is already closed. If we show ourselves to you more than we're supposed to do to each other, we'll have fulfilled our brother-in-law."

Though Zadias seemed unpleasant, he said so and flaunted his shoulders.

... I see. Zadias and Alverinde were, to some extent, equal partners.

Around not giving Elliot much information and not letting him go deep... you should see that you know who Alverinde is. Letting Elliot stick his neck in poorly could lead to losing a handkerchief as Zadias.

But... If so, what would bother me is the content of the deal.

What profit did he receive from Alverinde and what did Zadias offer him at that price?

It was undoubtedly in Zadias' interest to draw the Marquis of Gilbolt in as a handkerchief. So, what about the ensuing handouts to Verdogal? Who tried to hold off the towns of Michaela and Cecilia? Who searched for Patricia's magic? For whose good is it, then?

Or… there may be a match between the two interests, but at least there must have been something from Zadias that accommodated Alverinde as a consideration for the spell.

"His Highness Stephania seems to have made an appointment to head to the royal castle and see His Majesty. Marquis Gilbolt will also be guarding the neighborhood by taking an inn near the Marquis' apartment."

"... oh. That inn. Well, I know where it is."

Zadias nods.

"Benedict, you keep Marquis and Stephania under surveillance. Take a room in the same inn and report anything unusual. If you ask me why, I'll give you the princess's escort."

"Ha."

By appealing to Elliot to be nearby, the belly of trying to prevent anyone with a rebellion against Zadias from approaching? Externally, I guess it also shows that I earn points because I am obsessed with Princess Stephania. Well... that would be convenient.

"Tell Stephania I'll go say hello later."

"I'm in awe"

Elliot salutes. … come to the inn. I'd be better off standing by near Ambram as an escort, too.
