Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"The reason why I could use circulating smell was satisfactory. I was told that if there were prospects in the future, it would be a magician coming out of the old bloodline."

"... what is old lineage?

"Just like the Silvatorian royal family, it is said to be the lineage that ancestors the magicians of Belliondola"

When King Eberberberbert closes his eyes, he tells me and makes me listen.

"The fact that the number of people who could use circulatory smell was decreasing, and that some precious manipulations were scattered and lost, led to the gathering of people with genealogy in Belliondola trying to protect and convey them."

He knew to some extent that it was easy for a good magician to show up in a family line close to Belliondola. That's why we bonded between those lineages... trying to restore a bunch of magicians who fought demons. Hence the old lineage. And the sorcerer aspirants who admired them gathered together, and said that this would later become a sage scholarship.

... You're close to the Verdogal royal family around here.

The number of magicians who could use circulation in the battle against demons was reduced or technology was lost. Or because they became thinner with mixed blood, they sought to gather those close together to increase the purity of their lineage. Is it true that the elders are the parents of the old lineage?

"What's a sealed witch?

"They say a special daughter will be attacked among the old bloodlines.... I'm not sure what the details are about the origins... but they're not in a state where they can talk about things right now. Volheim, president of the Sage's Academic Union, and others are studying how to open things up, but the results are not very good."

Volheim, vice president at the time of the Civil Conflict of the Sage's Academic Union.... for this minute, you haven't reported to King Eberberbert that you're chasing a magician with a memory liberation ritual.

Anyway, I guess I'll just have to ask the elders around there, including about the sealed witch. Let's move on to the real story.

"As a matter of fact... the reason I came to Sylvatria this time also involves a disturbance that has taken its edge in the civil strife of the Sage's Scholastic Union"

So I cut out why Princess Stephania came to Sylvatria. You either felt the smell or you got more nervous about King Eberberbert's expression.

"First of all...... could you please look through the protégé from His Majesty Melvin?

Princess Stephania offers King Melvin's writ to King Eberberberbert. King Eberberberbert confirms the wax and puts his eyes through the parent book. As I proceeded to read it, its expression became a dangerous one.

Regarding the contents of the Parent Book, first of all, the part that I have learned so far is written in the Demon Involvement.

The purpose of a group of demons coming towards Verdogal, and what they figured out by deciphering ancient documents. And the hypothesis inferred from it - that is, the possibility that Belliondora might have a demon.

And it also says about the Zadias entanglement case. Bandit disturbances, raids on Count Gartner's territory, the intimidation of the Marquis Jilbolt family in its context, and the fact that the identity of the blackmailer was a demon. Everything.

There will be some information from King Eberberberberbert that there may be demons in Belliondola, but the part that Zadias may be involved in about threats to the Marquis Jilbolt family will be quite shocking.

Now if King Eberberberbert is going to act like he has a shoulder on Zadias' side... well, then he has to make a split move too.

"Is this... true"

King Eberberberbert puts his hand on his forehead so that he can suffer a headache.

"There were many parts of this one that I hadn't grasped to the full extent of who was pulling the thread... so there was a part of me that wasn't sure in what form or how far to tell who"

"... I guess. I guess that's what the last messenger I came for... If this situation tells you that the rest of you can sleep in the hospital bed, let's be vigilant."

King Eberberberbert seems to have grasped this move and the circumstances for me.

"If necessary, you will also be questioned by magic"

Tell him, but King Eberberberbert shook his head to the side.

"Such a response would be too shameless. It is the muscle that takes the backing here. In this case... I guess it would be a good idea to let them ride the measures that were in the parent book"

The measure in the parent book… that is, the guy who uses a plaster statue and informs him to gather information on Alverinde within Sylvatria.

"Marquis Gilbolt is on his way here right now. Would you mind listening directly to me from the Marquis, too? It should corroborate the story and is accompanied by the Spirit Tefra"

"What is the companionship of the High Spirit…"

King Eberberberbert grins slightly as he calls a samurai to let everyone through the back when the Marquis Gilbolt arrives.

Please forgive me for what I did to Marquis Gilbolt.

"... if that story is true, it will be unavoidable as a lord. In the first place… it is still unknown that the hospital bed allowed the bouncing of Neishin."

... a bouncing beam. Perhaps he has a role to play in reporting to King Eberberberbert... but it is likely that he has a connection with Zadias. We will have to be vigilant about the insiders who are inside the royal castle.

"Marquis Gilbolt is here."

And, a woman comes to report.

"Uhm. Let it pass here"

When King Eberberbert nods, Marquis Gilbolt and Elliot, then Tefra appear. Each wears a hood. Sheila has accompanied me as an escort.

The carriage they have taken to the castle should have Lavine and Ignis as escorts to this point. I leave a message while riding in the carriage because it is not exactly a place where I can take a wide walk inside the royal castle.

Ambram is...... still a shadow fighter. Try dressing up as Marquis Jilbolt and showing yourself at the window, or let Elliot change her figure and wait at the inn, and there's no room for disguise. Essentially, they take on the role of disrupting their location.

Although it will also help inform Elmer and the others of the danger and guide them to the basement of the separate residence.

"Well done, Marquis Gilbolt. Lord Spirit Tefra. And Sir Benedict. No. You were Sir Elliot now."

While waiting for Marquis Gilbolt, Elliot's circumstances are all told as well. Elliot was called by name, took off his mask and knelt. Tefra also takes off her hood and exposes her face.

Ashley's hair is also discolored with a decolorant. Compared to Elliot, he saw Tefra, and King Eberberbert sighed.

"The rest of them struggled because of the unknown."

"It's a bad word."

Marquis Gilbolt and Elliot answer King Eberberberbert, respectively.

"I accompanied you to testify to the innocence of the Marquis Gilbolt..."

and Tefra leans her neck slightly anxiously.

"... let's believe it. Give me the magician's end. We cannot mistake the Spirit for another being, and we have heard stories of high spirits living in Mount Tefra."

Tefra smiled contentedly at King Eberberbert's words.

"This will be the evidence."

Offer a crate with a plaster statue and caexgem. King Eberberberbert frowns when he sees inside the crate.

"... I have to shake Zadias with these. You have to call it in before you can get stuck."

"I don't know who's going through. There are parts of us that need to report to His Majesty Melvin, so if you'll excuse us, we'd like to be there for you."

And I'll make an offer. King Eberberberbert asks me after I've put a little thought into my words.

"... well. I heard Verdogal has a demon killer... did he?

If you are a magician who can use circulating smell, is it natural to be inferred that way?

"Yes."

"... Then let's say it with shame. I'd like to ask them to be present."

"I would also like to ensure the safety of His Highness Adriana."

says Princess Stephania.

"Adriana?"

"They're looking at me for surveillance. He's been urging us to be vigilant."

"Aye, okay. - Is there anyone there? Like calling Adriana here."

To King Eberberbert's words, a woman goes to call Princess Adriana in awe. If it were King Eberberbert's call, we wouldn't be able to stop her even if we had surveillance. Ensuring Princess Adriana's safety is necessary.

As soon as it was gone, Princess Adriana appeared behind the royal castle. I meant a friend of Princess Stephania's... what she looks like... she deserves the title Princess, a deep-window maid or something. I guess the contents are different again.

"... Father... what do you look like?"

"Mm-hmm. So this treatment went well."

Princess Adriana had her eyes round what King Eberberberbert looked like.

"That is above all. Forgive me for failing to report my brother's suspicious movements."

"Good. There was a possibility of exercising strength if the rest was accounted for."

Right...... King Eberberbert couldn't move in the hospital bed, so if he was cornered, he could have assassinated King Eberberbert, said he was sick, died, etc., and went around solemnly knowing the circumstances.

Princess Adriana had a secret, and there would be parts of her that could not be moved because she was alerted as a competitor to the throne heir.

"Steph...... thanks"

"No, Adriana. I'm glad you're okay, too."

When Princess Adriana turns back to Princess Stephania, she takes her hand and rejoices in reunion.

"Zadias... that he's not in the royal castle?

Next to it, King Eberberberbert, who received a report from a woman, was frowning.

"He said he was headed to the Academic Union. At the dinner table welcoming His Highness Stephania in the evening, he said he definitely wanted to show His Highness Stephania something."

"... well. Tell them to return to the Royal Castle as soon as possible to welcome Princess Stephania, as the treatment is over sooner than planned."

"Ha."

I guess I can't even tell you to go right back, because I'll keep Zadias on guard.

... I'd like to show Princess Stephania. Unless you perceived the danger and got out as an excuse...... are you going to tell me to show you some research results as well?

Given his character - as a reward for my martial arts, I might be in the mood to show off something I can show my martial arts in the supper seat. For it will also be a demonstration against the lords called to their seats at supper.

All in all, things moved.

Zadias and Dean Volheim are the enemy's forces of war. And like the Black Knights? I'm assuming all sorts of things, including the possibility that there are demons who can work with them... well.
