Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

The sound of knocking on the door sounds and Forceto, who was looking worried, looks up.

"Go ahead."

Answering that, together with the three Scions, several men and women, wrapped in loose robes, came into the floor. The old men, who had the atmosphere worthy of the word ancient, but who seemed quite calm.

"I'm sorry you called me where I was resting"

"No. If the Royal Neighbourhood of Nahalvia were to visit, we wouldn't be welcome."

"Right. We've already been briefed by Theon and the others about our guests."

"First, would you like to introduce yourself and… and then explain what I told you earlier?"

We nod at Forceto's words and introduce ourselves to each other.

To the fold of Claudia's introduction... the ancients were still circling their eyes when they talked about their origins.

"Precious princess of the Royal family of Shuastrus......!

"I didn't expect you to come straight from the northern labyrinth to this hiding place..."

Claudia nods quietly in the attention of the ancients.

"I don't know what the moon's been like since I got off the ground, but some of the people in your house are familiar with it."

That said, Claudia was informed in an earlier introduction, each family name and the name of the parent or family member at the time. I will say the name of my position in the month.

Apparently, as far as the origins are concerned, the ancients are the noblemen of the moon, and so on. He used to be a martial artist, a civilian, etc.

"... I'm afraid. I didn't know you remembered everything about our house."

And the ancients look like they're into Claudia's words. Show a saluting trick with your hands on your chest.

"Well, that's about it with me. Let's talk about things later. I haven't finished introducing myself."

"Ha."

The ancients nod, and the others name their names. Princess Elkham said quietly.

"My name is Elkham-Bahalzad. Mother, Sherrity will be the last survivor of the Royal House of Nahalvia."

"Ooh...... of Nahalvia......"

The ancients see Princess Elkham in a way that impresses them.

"... sorry. As long as we don't have the power, we're going to unleash disaster on the world again."

"Dear Left...... My lord Elkham and your mother... and how can I apologize to those in Nahalvia who lost their lives..."

And, as the ancients float their sinking faces, so do the Scions.

In a case 30 years ago... if the Unknown King became a new demon and figured it out with them... it's not surprising that sacrifices have been made to stop the demon man who tried to leave.

It is also understandable that they did not know that there was a survival of Nahalvia, if they also considered that it was in turmoil at the time.

The royal family of Nahalvia would be like their own if they took it too. If there are casualties in Halvaronis, is it an ancient wound that I do not want to touch even as the Zions?

"They chased the moon...... can I ask you something from then on?

"Right. Let's continue our conversation."

When we get to our seats after introducing ourselves to everyone, Scion and the others make tea around. When that was over, he left the floor in a courtesy.

"Our ancestors were chased to the ground, but they were not allowed freedom of movement."

"You must have forbidden us to approach the labyrinth again after falling to the ground"

To the ancient words, Forceto nods.

"Captured by the prison of the junction that covers the wilderness, and - just then - the ancestors of Nahalvia have also flown from the east."

"They say they've torn the country and been chased from the east. We welcome the wounded... and we cannot go out of the junction, and they want our magic again... and at the edge of the junction we build a hiding place in the heart of the junction, growing grass - the history of the Royal House of Nahalvia has begun"

"Why did you split into a capital and a hiding place?

Princess Elkham asks, one of the old men answers with his eyes closed.

"... I guess the people on earth were still horrible. The treachery against His Highness Claudia is nothing more than a sabotage to the Labyrinth… a hostility to all who live on earth."

So you stayed deeply involved in the founding of the country, but didn't actively show up in Nahalvia either, and lived in the woods?

"Has the seal lost its effectiveness, or has the generation changed and been forgiven? The moon's junction has also been broken. It won't come true to go back to the moon, but our ancestors didn't leave the woods when we were able to get out. But..."

"From among us came those who tried to revive Istrum's proposed secret tricks."

"Veristio...... He also said that he was a genius who excelled in Wen Wu... so I guess. I woke up as a demon by my own power... transformed those who obeyed me into demons... and went outside. Apart from Nahalvia, we tried to create a kingdom of demons."

"The difference in power between those who awaken as demons and those who do not is too great. If you say that and you change it as a demon, you become fond of destruction and killing. Follow the demons, and the demons and demons will make money in the meantime… and say that the fighting outside was spreading."

"Nahalvia had been missed... but they still had victims. My ancestors were afraid of the power within themselves."

... the Allied Lord Beristio? Does the difference in power mean that… even if it is a people of the moon, it is difficult to counter demons without a magic circle or blessing?

Then... would it mean that technological systems such as the magic circulation were created on the moon during the period until Beristio appeared?

"It's such a fold. Seven magicians came to their ancestors saying they were from the Moon Capital. The chief of time and the ancients taught them everything they know about Veristio."

You're talking about Seven Wise Men.

"... and that they sealed the allies and defeated the demons"

"It will. Veristio made a pact with the demon, and by awakening this, he said he could cross the vessel even if he was destroyed of flesh… he had a technique that was almost immortal"

... so. That's why I sealed Veristio. If you dare not destroy the vessel and seal it as it is, there is nothing to cross.

If I could seal that ability itself, or maybe I could have defeated it completely... It is also believed that the sealing technique may not have been extended, or that the sealing technique was further developed as a reflection later.

"Those seven laid the foundations of the magical kingdom of Belliondola across the North. Belliondola... will then be destroyed by the demons and become the kingdom of Silvatoria"

"Yes, was it"

Provide information to complement their knowledge here as well.

And… the allies of the demons defeated… they named themselves the blame and closed themselves to the kingdom.

"Shall we follow the order? As for the unknown king who destroyed Nahalvia...... are you still a demon?

"... Yes. That name is Vallos. Frestina's division - you're my relative."

Forceto closes his eyes and shakes his neck to the side. The tone was pale, but the expression did not float.

...... Vallos. Is that the name of the leader of the demons? About the demon man Gardinis said was a young man, I guess.

"It is also the one who has transformed himself into a demon, and has awakened himself. In that sense, it might be the same as Beristio."

"... that, what's your ability?

"I don't know. At least, you don't seem to have the same power as your allies. Black - using strange powers... we didn't even fight. At the time, I was just a kid, but only magic was twice as powerful... so I tried to smash myself... and when I realized it, I was being slapped on the wall."

That's what Forceto says. He holds his own shoulder. Did you also fight Forceto?

I guess the reason I'm not old enough for appearance... is because the people of the moon are not as long as the elves are, so long lives. Well, the demons are almost immortal.

"When Vallos turned into a demon, he tried to leave town. Non and the others tried to stop Vallos... but at that time, there were many injured and dead... He said he had just woken up and couldn't add or subtract... until the Nahalvians..."

"Even if it can't be stopped by force, I wish I could persuade him... I still regret it..."

That said, one of the old sighs.

And Vallos headed to the capital of Nahalvia. Assuming... the Royal House of Nahalvia relied on the means of sealing it when they tried to stop it... that would have been bad in terms of results.

It is also assumed that Vallos has blown up every royal castle in order to break the seal. The failure to sweep survival, or to release debris, may be Vallos' consideration that he hated it more than that because his purpose was achieved.

Cut off the flesh parents and companions, and still... no, that's why... he won't stop. Because I don't even know what I made a sacrifice for if I didn't move on.

"Why would Vallos do that?

"Build a country... maybe you're going to. Seeing the chaos in Baharzad, a neighboring country, and the refugees who had fled, he decided to become demons. If the good rule the country, there will be no confusion. If the kingdom is disturbed if the times change even if there is a good king, the immutable being is the only way to stand on top. He said we were indolent, tying ourselves together with the power to do so."

... I see. It's called words and deeds. It's called how to destroy that royal castle... it seems like a different colour from the other demons. Because you changed it on your own, not by birth demons?

Its purpose is to create a kingdom of demons. - No, are you going to govern, including humans, demons, and other races? As a means to do this, do you mean you will need a flag to wrap up the demons… the Alliance Lord?

"I thought... for that time, I might have had to move"

"And you say?

"The chiefs and ancient rulers before us have gone on to study that they will never let the devil out again... and seal their own power in the vessel of Homunculus, which has no will"

"If the study is completed, there will be no more demonization paths."

Seems like you have to increase your powers considerably to become a demon on your own.

"But... it was a little different than I planned. The awakened homunculus had his own will. After all, the plan is blank now."

And, Forceto laughs bitterly.

"Oh, could it be... those are the Scions?

"Yes, my predecessors and the ancients kept them asleep... but after we succeeded them... we decided to awaken the Zions and raise them as our children"

I see...... He has a high degree of ability in reason. We just need the potential to be a vessel of power for the people of the Moon.

"After this - I was wondering if it would be cowardly to leave it to someone even to our own power and keep pretending not to see it. We... what Vallos told us was thorny and we couldn't get out."

And, Forceto puts his hand on his chest and frowns at his root.

"Well... I'm glad Non was welcomed as a family."

"Right. When I look at them, I feel like I can help."

And Forceto laughed small at the ancient word, which he said with his eyes narrowed.
