Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Finish your errands to the Temple of the Moon and take a carriage back to the castle.

The kids taking the whole city and running... some of them just saw it. Looks like we're going to run for the squad.

I mean, the fact that I was gathering friends because I was going on a tour of the Sirius? Everyone smiles uniformly, seems to have fun and is above all.

There was a crowd around the practice field visible from the side of the boulevard heading to the castle, and it looked like it was thriving with a far-winded view of the Sirius.

"There are so many people, take your time and head to the castle. Because it's not in a hurry."

"I'm in awe"

Tell your man to slow down so that no accidents happen. The carriage progresses at a slow speed, so I get a good idea of how the people gathered at the squad yard are. Adults and children are packed and thriving.

"Wow!

They've all pushed the kids earlier, too, and they seem to be looking up at the Sirius and shining their eyes.

Next to that, a bunch of Dwarves are arming up. Oh, but it's not like this. We're having an argument.

"I heard the princesses were coming this way on a flying ship... this is amazing"

"What metal is it made of?"

"The decorations will be applied... but apparently the hull is using some kind of magic. I hear you were told that you were interrupted by an interaction with Silvatoria."

"Magic. Then it's out of our specialty."

I could hear the Dwarves talking like that.

"Whatever it is, it's been a good thing lately. I talked to my new lord a little bit, but he's a fine man."

"Speaking of good things... the eldest son of Baron Sirn also had a wedding."

"Ho. I don't know. From now on, we'll have a boat floating in the sky served with liquor."

At such a rate, he heads to the castle listening to the exuberant laughter of the Dwarves, who seem to roll out to the tavern during the day.

When you cross the bounce bridge and go inside through the castle gate, the servants greet you as you step out of the carriage.

"Welcome. Please come this way."

Ask the servants to show you around the castle. Passing through a stone corridor and having it passed into a spacious VIP room, there was the figure of the Stephania princesses who had been put through earlier.

The VIP lounge is not overly decorative and has several hobby dishes.

It felt like there weren't many dishes in the castle, but the VIP room was quite something like that.

Whenever I saw it, the Marquis Broderick residence in Termwilds was full... I replaced it, so I may have disposed of the unnecessary and urgent product and made it smaller. I guess there's no way that the VIP room doesn't just leave the conditioning.

"How was the city?

The servants brewed the tea and Princess Stephania asked me first, taking a breath.

"We were thrilled to hear about your two visits and the Sirius, and about Baron Sirn's wedding. I could hear you admiring the Marquis Broderick, and the inhabitants seem to expect it from now on."

"That's a good thing. Broderick, the Marquis had a lot to do with it, and my father cared."

Scratching and telling her what she had seen and heard in the city, Princess Stephania broke up with her. That's where the knock sounds indoors.

"Go ahead."

When Princess Stephania encourages her to enter the room, a woman of good stature enters. I said I would be polite.

"My name is Bertille and I am the wife of the Marquis Broderick. I'm sure my husband will be here soon, but in the meantime, it's up to me to say hello that there should be no disrespect for your hospitality."

"Bertille, long time no see."

Malcolm's wife? I'm quite older than Princess Stephania at my age, but apparently the two of them know each other.

"Yes. We are out of time, Your Highness. Since my service to the royal castle?"

"That's what's gonna happen."

I see. He said he worked somewhere in the royal castle and got married knowing Malcolm, who also works in the royal castle.

The eyes of Malcolm's heirs would have disappeared if the previous Marquis and his second son, Norman, hadn't blown themselves up... and if that meant supporting Malcolm in the meantime, I guess the Lady is a credible figure.

Bertille greets Princess Stephania and Princess Adriana before turning to me.

"Ambassadors of different worlds, are you Dear Theodore?

"Yes."

"My husband took great care of that verse. Thanks to you, I haven't complained about stomach pain lately, and I'm healthy. Let me thank you too."

"That's more than anything."

I'll return the favor, too. Bertille was then politely greeting everyone else around. Some of the peculiar faces - Tefra, Serafina and Floria - looked somewhat surprised, but I also extend a welcome greeting to them.

"What about the current state of affairs regarding the ministers of the Marquis? Is there anything inconvenient?

After one street of greetings, Princess Stephania spoke to Bertille again.

"People from the center are doing their job, so we're moving forward smoothly."

"Marquis is the people you worked with in the royal castle."

Hmm. Were they sent with Malcolm to investigate the Marquis? I guess I'll be working here until the Marquis realm settles down.

"Yes, those who have been wrongfully involved with the Normans have been pursued for positions and, if malicious, have been captured. We also work with the Earl of Gartner and the Adventurer Guild, so for the territory it is stable and"

"Sounds like it. I also heard what was happening in the realm earlier. I'm sure your father would be delighted."

Perhaps Princess Stephania's companionship to the Marquis Broderick had such a reason.

Sometimes you can't tell without actually taking a leg, and as King Melvin, you'll be wondering after Marquis territory. If that is Princess Stephania's report, it can be trusted as a source. The whole city has seen it straight from the temple, and if the realm has a bright atmosphere, let's say it's a good trend.

Eventually Malcolm also comes to the VIP room. I guess I was just back in the territory, getting reports, giving directions, making sure I was ready for the banquet seat, all kinds of work.

"Thank you for waiting. Banquet seats will be held in the evening, so please be at your leisure until then. If you have something for me, what is it?"

"Thank you, Marquis."

Hmm. He said he'd have time until evening. Illumhilt and the others buy me a musician role and play a substitute for lute and harp in the corner of the VIP room.

In doing so, Malcolm seems to have heard earlier from his wife and actually decided to bring the books and give a detailed explanation to Princess Stephania.

Princess Stephania was listening to Malcolm as she looked at the books with a serious look on her face.

and that's where the door to the room is knocked. It was the soldier who was prompted to enter the room and showed up across the door.

"Something."

"I have a report. In front of the customer…"

The soldier says in a fearful manner.

"Never mind me."

"I'm sorry"

Once he cuts the report to Princess Stephania, Malcolm leaves the room.

I was looking at each other to see what was going on and it was slightly happening and Malcolm came back.

"I'm sorry. Looks like we've got a little problem."

"What happened? If you don't mind..."

Princess Stephania asks, Malcolm answers in a slightly sunken tone.

"There was a bunch of people who were investigating old mines, but they said some of the pits had collapsed and they were trapped"

"Isn't that... important...!

"I'm so sorry. If you'll excuse me, I'd like to head to the scene."

"Whatever. There's nothing else to prioritize."

Princess Stephania and Princess Adriana nod.

"Let's take the airship to the scene. I'll help you if you need me."

And I also offer. It goes without saying that it would be better to have an airship, whether to rush or if there were an injured person. Gazing at everyone, they nodded, too.

Ashley's healing magic, Claudia's transfer magic to Sheila and Illumhilt's ability to detect. I'm comfortable searching and rescuing.

Being locked up means... maybe you know how cheap the investigation team is with the road blocked. But it doesn't necessarily mean there won't be a double shipwreck to rescue them. I can't be sure without looking at the scene of the accident, but there will be things I can do to magically exclude dirt and sand, or to strengthen the pit so that no secondary disaster occurs by strengthening the structure.
