Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

365 On the plateau and rocky mountains

I let him rest in the castle of the Grand Duke of Devonis.

I feel warmer than Term Wills because it went south. The temperature was just about right at night, so I was able to sleep well into the morning. After a little early breakfast, we head to the arena for our departure.

"Morning, Saphir."

"You picked me up."

This one arrives at the arena and gets out of the carriage. No, Saphir and Corliss, plus the Fei Dragons peek in the face and jump. The knights laughed bitterly. Princess Stephania greets it with joy.

Lindblum had his face on the deck too... but he came down after dropping off the others.

"Morning, Lindblum"

And, when I stroke him around Lindblum's nose, he distorts the edge of his mouth and gently throats.

"Oh! Good morning, lords"

When Auria, who stepped out of the carriage, raises her hand and greets her, Corliss, who was stroking her head by Princess Stephania, also raises her hand and greets her back.

Grand Duke Debonis, who came to drop me off with his eldest son and his wife, seemed to be eating a little face at such a busy sight.

Corliss would be a rare category, especially if he were a demon of use, but when he sees Princess Stephania and Mallane looking to have fun, Grand Duke DeBonis laughs calmly, breathing small. Then he turned to me and said:

"Then the ambassador. Take care on the road. I can't really help you, but at least take this."

And Grand Duke Devonis shows me a note with a family crest. There was an autograph and a message from Grand Duke Debonis, addressed to the king - or nobility - of the Bahárzad.

Scratch the contents and explain... and prove our identity. Kings Melvin and Grand Duke Devonis are kind enough to say hello, and so on.

Grand Duke Devonis showed me the contents, then carefully closed them with wax, one by one, and handed them to me.

Heavy town of Verdogal. That also means an autographed writ by a highly influential figure to the south...... when it becomes necessary for some fold, it is definitely quite helpful.

"I don't know how useful it would be in Bahalzad, but I was hoping you could help me in case of trouble"

"Thank you. Let us use it with care so as not to harm the Grand Duke's honour."

When he received the letter and thanked him, Grand Duke Debonis narrowed his eyes and nodded.

"The Grand Duke of Devonis is also a master. As I told you last night, if there is any damage to the arrival of demons in your territory, please notify the witches of the Temple of the Moon."

"Then let's head directly to the Temple soon after this."

Hmm. Will this have allowed us to establish a base for the transfer in South Verdogal as well? It means that there is no large Moon Temple in the territory of the second son and his wife, but it seems that they will give notice to the temple.

Grand Duke Debonis and Philip each exchange farewell greetings, then board the Sirius. Alpha, who was sitting near the cockpit, barked at me when she admitted that she looked like me and disappeared with a light light.

So... let's get going. Slowly surfacing the Sirius. On deck Mallane and Princess Stephania waved their hands toward the Grand Duke of Devonis, and they also waved and dropped them off.

"The scenery… or the atmosphere is very different"

Ashley saw the view outside from the crystal plate and leaked such a voice.

"The plants don't seem to be leafy either, and they're not what they're growing"

"Sure...... I wonder if there are many things we don't see in the north"

Hammer at Ashley and Grace's words.

Locally, it will cross one small high mountain that extends near the southern border and will already be within the Kingdom of Bahárzad. Plateau - should I say? The landscape stretches beneath the eyes of a grassland that stretches over mountainous highlands with pompous and trees.

They say the southwest side of the Bahárzad kingdom is dry and stretches with desert areas, but the north side has high altitudes, and they have a lot of these landscapes. Don't feel like Bahalzad is rich in topographical changes when you go through the whole thing.

Everyone also seems to be more concerned about what's going on outside than playing with cards about the rare view of the exotic. Especially because of the good view of the meadow, or because the serafina was gleaming at the sight visible from the crystal plate.

"Oh, there are people who are grazing."

and find Auria's parents and children herding sheep by enlarging the view of the crystal plate, giving them a delightful voice. They don't seem to notice it because there's some distance from here... yeah. Indeed.

He is unexpectedly dressed in colorful costumes and also equipped with a small bow that seems to be well-rounded on his back. They seem to be watching the sheep across large goat-like creatures, not horses.

"Are they the people of Bahalzad?

"They say the tribal chiefs are in a position to cooperate with King Bahalzad. We are told that the great old King Bahalzad promised asylum from the demons against them who did not have the bonds or walls to defend themselves."

"Instead, we're talking about the tribes making a commitment to gather warriors from their respective tribes to cooperate with the king if anything happens... That's why they're free, too."

To Claudia's question, Princess Stephania answers Princess Adriana adds: Hmm. It would be easier to do business with Verdogal if we were in a cooperative relationship with them.

"Though there seemed to be a time in the Bahárzad royal family when the Dark One was in danger with his tribe because of you. Roy thought if we took them in well, we could cut into the Bahárzad, too."

Rosemary covered her mouth with a feather fan and clapped her shoulders. I see. They live near the border between Verdogal and Bahárzad... and if there was any discord, they saw a gap in it.

Nowadays nomads have bases all over the place, and they will travel according to the season. They're moving down the plateau to the south plain side in a little while... well, we also have to graze, but I guess it also means we really need a stronghold with ties to protect ourselves from the demons.

"I wonder if that legend and promise dates back to when I fought the Alliance of Demons."

"I guess since the juxtaposition spread"

Nodding at Claudia's words.

Does that mean that if we go through the mountainous and plateau areas, the land will finally be fully extended by the power of King Bahalzad? On the map, if you cross one mountain through the plateau, it will be the capital.

The Sirius crossed the meadow into the mountains of rocky skin.

View the narrow path of Rock Mountain under your eyes and check the map and the azimuth magnet to determine the path the ship should take.

"Theodore. This, look"

Sheila said watching the crystal plate.

"Hmm...?

From behind Sheila, peek into the crystal plate.

A winding road in the mountains. On the narrow road above the cut off road, I saw a group somewhat armed belly-up on the rocks. Beyond the road - that is, the way we are all staring down and watching the mountain road leading to the capital side of the Bahárzad. Because of that, we don't seem to notice.

That's not all. A rock is prepared on the cliff, stirred with trees and boards. Dimensions are that if you cut the rope, the plate will come off and the rock will be dropped on the road. I don't know if I'm going to drop it over someone with a street or block the way......

The rock-colored cloth that is covered in something... from the shape, it would be a barista. Whether the ambush opponent came from the ground or from the air, I could see him aiming to be able to handle it.

So who the hell is ambushing who for what? You look and feel different than the nomads I saw on the plateau...... He has a crooked knife on his hips and his gear looks uniform...

"Charlotte. Can you raise the altitude a little?

"Yes, Doctor"

When Charlotte, who was operating the ship, nodded, the altitude of the Sirius rose. Increased altitude also broadens the horizon. In the distance, I saw a group coming down the road that leads this way.

Operate and enlarge the crystal plate. The soldiers, knights dressed in armored helmets of a different design than Verdogal, seem to be consolidating the perimeter of the dragon car towed by the ground dragon.

It's not that big of a deal. It would be more of a dragon car escort than an army. As soon as the flag of the cavalry at the head of the group was shown on the crystal board, Princess Stephania raised her voice as if she were surprised.

"... those are the royal flags of the Bahalzad!
