Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Tomorrow's face-to-face meeting, but... the location of the lesson has changed."

Build a shipyard and then come home... we still had a little time until dinner, so I'll make everyone talk and listen to the circular from King Melvin while I relax in the living room.

"You mean the face-to-face meeting against the Demon Squad, which he said he would do at the Royal Castle?

"Yes, according to King Melvin, by showing you the facilities you built right away, you have the aim of raising morale."

"Meet me at the shipyard... It's a training facility for troops, and maybe it's just fine. I think there's some point in telling the troops what to expect."

Rosemary says.

"Maybe. Maybe he was going to give him a tour even though he was about to make it. It's almost done, so I think we changed it to gather there."

There seems to be a reason around here that I gave you permission to build magic.

"Brother Elliot is going to be busy."

"Right. They both look tough."

Ashley laughs bitterly. Meet face to face and greet troopers in the morning. They're packed with promises to find a new home this afternoon and some pretty thick plans.

You're supposed to say hello from me about tomorrow's meeting... Well, we'll figure it out. Is this all we can talk about face-to-face?

"Oh, and Claudia. About the labyrinth of the full moon."

"The Labyrinth of the Full Moon..."

"Yes, I think it's time to think about the offense in that place."

Claudia closed her eyes quietly as she told her story of the labyrinth attack on the full moon.

"... right. Though I thought one day I'd be going."

"Again, is it a dangerous place?

I snort at Grace's question.

"I think it's more dangerous than Fort Hot Castle. I don't even want to talk about it right now because I want to think about measures. You'll need the demon stone of an airship until you've built the exterior."

The labyrinth of the full moon is...... there is no offense going on from the point that it would only be possible to enter the moon once, etc., and there are few stone tablets.

It feels like there is a lot of orthodox force pushing by demons, not gimmicks like terrain and traps.

It's just... unless you're trying to go in the back, it's not a demonic attack or that intense. If you have just strayed in, it will not be that difficult in itself to survive if you only think and act on escape.

"I don't mind taking you. But there are a few things we need to talk about before we go."

Claudia looks straight at me. Nod, this one also looks at Claudia from the front.

"First of all... that labyrinth isn't like anywhere else. I wonder what to say. The labyrinth is almost full of demons... and if there has been miscalculation there, but you say it serves a purpose or not, you can say it still works."

"Securing food and resources and strengthening explorers"

"Yes, but the purpose is different when it comes to the Labyrinth of the Full Moon. The path that leads to the labyrinth village, the path that leads to the Temple of Moonlight. And further behind. The Temple of Moonlight is a little different because it was built after using the place, but for me, the caretaker, it's a path to a place I don't want you to step into."

I see...... Does the very nature of the labyrinth of the full moon make it different and more interesting than elsewhere?

The purpose of the labyrinth of the full moon is to intercept and eliminate. So if you're going home without stepping into the back, loosen your hands on the attack.

I wonder where Claudia is drawing her hopes... I don't want you to step in, but I don't want you to take your life without darkness.

"You don't have to worry about the path regarding the Labyrinth Village because you've already allowed yourself in. Either way, I seal the door, and getting off the labyrinth of the full moon is not normal."

"... so I think I'll take in what I envisioned as a little full moon labyrinth for my training from tomorrow"

"The Labyrinth of the Full Moon... but Theodore, is it dangerous?

Sheila asks.

"Mmm. Looks like there's some nasty demons out there, so it might be dangerous to stay alert."

I'll answer that. There are places where things have been going smoothly because we have been taking good care of them, and that is why we sometimes get alarmed. I just want everyone to keep their heads tight, too.

Mallane and Serafina nodding with their magical faces. Yeah. That's fine.

"I can see some descriptions of the demons that emerge in some literature... but I wonder if this is the best place to ask Claudia"

Yeah. I know to some extent too, but there are some things I can't really talk about, like I've seen. I'm sure I'll pack the measures in consultation with Claudia.

"The structure itself is simple. The problem is demons. The demon of simple force pushing... well as being able to push and win. The first danger is the demon with the ability to petrify it."

"The ability to petrify - basilisk or cocatrice."

Claudia snorts at the words.

"Yeah, they're both here."

Yes...... In the labyrinth of the full moon there are basilisks and cocatris, demons with two types of petrifying abilities. This is why you can't be alarmed.

Basilisk is evil eye. Cocatris exhaled and directly attacked by mouth. Since each method of petrification is different, the measures will also be different.

"Is there magic that cures petrification?

Ashley nodded as Illumhilt tilted his neck.

"It can be used. It was in the literature I kept from Silvatria."

"If it's just disarming, I can do it too. It's just... circulating smell takes time, so don't think you can do it in battle."

"If Theo and Ashley are safe, they can recover from petrification."

"If one of you gets petrified, you need to think about an immediate retreat with metastatic magic."

It is gratifying that there are still a number of means left as insurance even if the response is incorrect. Even if you look around the party members, there are ways to take action against each demon. Please push this strength to help us stand around safely.

And the morrow. People were gathered at the newly built shipyard for face-to-face encounters with the demon troops, and for a reminder to greet them.

The airship is anchored above the facility, and Prince Josiah, Princess Stephania and Princess Adriana are also in the shape of showing their faces from the deck to King Melvin. It would certainly be an unparalleled morale boost for a royal to show his face directly and give him a lesson. That's part of the mooring of the airship.

"We are out of time, Your Highness Josiah"

"Oh. Long time no see, Theodore."

When I greet Prince Josiah, I break up with him.

"I arrived last night. When I got back to Termwilds, I was surprised the terrain was changing again. I didn't expect to make this in a day..."

That's what I said and looked around the shipyard, Prince Josiah nodding as impressed.

"I heard you were traveling south."

"Oh. He plays a coordinating role in trying to improve the relationship between the Duke of Driscoll and the Grand Duke of Devonis. Grand Duke Devonis said there was a will to reconcile with the Duke's house... but the Duke of Driscoll was somewhat troubled. He wants to be closer to you than he wants to be to the Grand Duke."

"Is that for me?"

"Whether you're my father's direct minister or not, I can't answer anything."

Prince Josiah snorted bitterly. You're laughing, but you seem a little tired.

Now that the Kingdom of Verdogal is moving in a direction against the Demons, it seems that it is in the midst of making adjustments to prevent those who pull their legs in the country from leaving.

"It's a little harsh. Who's Jen?"

King Melvin joins him there when he talks to Prince Josiah.

"I've sent you other letters. I would love to introduce Theodore. In short, you want to."

"Absolutely not..."

Prince Josiah shakes his head to the side. As far as I'm concerned, I have to laugh.

"Well, I don't have to worry too much about the Duke because of our problems. I'm trying to keep Theodore out of the way."

"More than that, I've also looked into the aftermath of the Duobelis Church in the South, but I've heard some interesting stories."

Prince Josiah turns from the Duke's story and says with a serious look on his face.

"Is it the Duobelis Church? Are the remnants of those people doing something again?

The ones who led Gardinis? Speaking of which, I'm concerned about losing my patriarch, Gardinis, and then the story.

"Oh no. Those guys lost their central figure, and they're pretty weakened, so don't worry. Originally, there was no direct relationship with Verdogal just because he was not active inside Verdogal. Not really... apparently there's a place for the church to position itself as a sanctuary."

"Church sanctuary......"

That's also...... There's something about that denomination that I don't think has anything to do with the fact that the patriarch was just Gardinis, the oldest demon, anyway.

I'm also gathering information about demons... based on Prince Josiah's information, maybe I should take a trip to the South once in some cases.
