Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Apparently Rasnote cares about you, too."

Pernaz says. The little water dragon seems to say Las Nottes.

That's what I've been doing for a while, but Rasnote leaves softly. I put it between a few beats and then looked up at Pernaz and Invel and asked.

"So... may I introduce Her Majesty Queen Eldraine and the Eckels"

"Yes, thank you"

Invell shook his head vertically as he closed his eyes.

Take that word and pick everyone up to the front of the Spirit Hall of Water. Through the narrow road that leads to the Spirit Palace, we head to the square of the Devil's Light Water Vein where everyone is.

"I'm home."

"Welcome back, both of you"

"Yep. Thanks"

And, thanks to Claudia, Grace nods calmly.

"What happened to your story?

"Yeah. The water dragon's parents and kids are the same as they were when we met before. He said he'd meet everyone and talk to them."

Asked by Ashley, who seemed a little worried, to answer that, she smiled and nodded.

When I hear it's the same as before, the pals' expressions mix with the colors of relief. Everyone knows the water dragon.

Even so... although there was still tension in the expression on the faces of Queen Eldraine and the Eckels.

But I think that's a good idea. I did my part as an intermediary for the meeting, but after that, it's something to talk about in the words of Queen Eldraine and the others. At this point, we should not talk too much.

"Are you ready?

When asked so, Queen Eldraine takes one big, deep breath before answering.

"The concubine. And then what?

"Ha. No problem at any time"

"All right. Shall we?"

Take back the path with everyone and return to the Spirit Hall of Water.

It was not the first time that Queen Eldraine and the others had come to the Spirit Palace, but it was only for a moment that they were in love with the sight. Immediately noticing the water dragon parents and children, Queen Eldraine and the others bow deeply.

Queen Eldraine, whatever her heart is, may be keeping the upset from appearing on the table. Or - does my duty as queen make me do that?

"I'll catch your eye first. We bind the people of Grantios, my name is Eldraine. I beg your pardon for asking Lord Theodore to join me."

"My name is Pernaz. Even as Theodore, it would be the result of consideration given to the Verdogal royal family. You don't have to worry about that."

"Thank you"

"I say Invel. This is my daughter Rasnote."

Queen Eldraine names her name, and Pernaz and Invel answer. Queen Eldraine introduces the martial arts officers who accompanied her.

"The martial arts officer Weltes. Then there's Eckels and Gimnos."

When the martial arts officers are introduced to each of them, they gratefully name their names - then Eckels and Gimnos fall on one knee and break their hips on the spot.

"Eckels and Gimnos. Yes...... You guys."

"Yes, we appreciate your forgiveness"

Eckels replies in the same position.

"Well. What's the matter? I hear you will follow our intentions... Right. Can you let me hear your thoughts and stuff first?

"From the former...... I am a person perpetuated by mercy. I have no doubt that I was waving a spear under a demon, and I understand from the point of view of the SS leader that I am responsible. Even if they punish you, maybe that's the reward you deserve. But......"

"But?"

"Now, I serve Grantios. So if this person is going to scratch Grantios' trust, we have to regain it."

"... I see"

Pernaz closes his eyes to such Eckels' response. Indeed... Eckels is the general of the defeated if he sees it in his position as his family members, and the top of the current status quo's former family members.

There's a part of it because my superiors are dying in battle, but it doesn't seem like I was in a position to even speak out to policy because of that general's dictation or anything.

And now, as one who serves Grantios,? I'm pretty sure you appreciate the Queen's mercy.

And so Queen Eldraine stepped forward.

"It was the concubine's decision that accepted them. And it is incumbent upon the people of Grantios to grant the concubine as much asylum as she can. So… the concubine should not be held accountable."

"Heh, Your Majesty..."

Eckels and Gimnos rounded their eyes to Queen Eldraine's words. Weltes and Pernaz and Invel seem surprised by this as well.

But... Pernaz shook his head to the side.

"No...... I don't want to talk about punishment or blame. Surely we have a cause for the devil. But if you don't know Waldom or Oberg, it's not our role to seek that punishment."

"Right. Not to mention that you guys are about to walk off another road now. I don't want to imitate like putting a cross spear in there. We were just... worried to hear that there was someone next to our dear friend who was serving the Devil. So I wanted to see him in person and hear his thoughts."

When Invell saw Queen Eldraine and the Eckels who would refrain behind him, he said:

"And I was ready for that, and I was only shown it. Hopefully the current word will be kept."

"Please stand up with your face up. We welcome the people of Grantios."

And Pernaz and Invel narrow their eyes. From the impression, he seemed to laugh softly.

- So as for the interview between Waterdragon parents and children and Queen Eldraine, does it feel like we have settled somewhere to calm down?

When Queen Eldraine solved the technique of humanization and showed herself as a mermaid, she sat on the shore and told Pernaz and the others all sorts of things, from meeting us to fighting Waldom.

"Has that happened outside...... We're stuck in the labyrinth, so don't be shy."

"You want to see Marl, too. We were dormant, so it's a little different than it's been a long time."

The two of them were listening to Queen Eldraine with interest. Hmm. After all, Marl and I know each other. Between those involved in the sealing of the treasure.

"The next time I see you, I'll talk to Marl."

"That helps"

I snort in my words with a voice that Invel seems to enjoy.

"I want to see Marl, too."

And a slightly tongueless impression sounds. It's not a normal voice, it's a voice that sounds all around, just like Pernaz and Invel. Probably Las Notes'.

Turning his gaze to Las Nottes, he says a little embarrassed.

"The magic of talking to people... I just remembered and I'm not very good at it. Isn't that weird?

"That's not true."

Answering that, Rasnote narrowed her eyes with pleasure.

Was Rasnote a people-friendly personality, hiding in the shadows of Invell in a way that more people were surprised, but how he came to get used to it gradually?

But I see. We used magic to talk. Rasnote may not have spoken before, due to his familiar personality and the fact that he had just learned magic.

"We usually speak your language because we're a little tired. You have to adjust the size of your voice for the size of your body."

"Rasnote doesn't have to do that because he's still small, but you have to practice either way to talk normally."

And the water dragons say.

The structure of the body is not suitable for manipulating humanities. Communication can be done using magic, so I guess it's better to remember you from the beginning.

"Rasnote seems interested outside. We will not go very far out of the labyrinth, but La Snote will soon have the time to be alone. We'd be grateful if you'd let us talk about it."

"If that's the case, I'd be happy to"

I also travel to Verdogal and Sylvatria in a wide variety of ways. Essential for talking stories.

I have plans after this, but as far as I'm concerned, I'd like to interact with you a little bit more here. It's also an important time to build trust between Grantios and the Water Dragon.

"This girl is Mallane. I'm Rosemary. I'm glad you called me Marie."

"Rasnote..."

"Mm-hmm. I'm Sheila."

It's a serafina.

Mallane introduces herself to each other by not picking a skirt hem on Las Nottes and Rosemary introduces Mallane's name on behalf of Mallane who doesn't speak the language.

And...... where we had already introduced ourselves to each other against Rasnote, when Illumhilt played Lute, Rasnote blinked a little surprised.

Hmm. I brought a lute for the fact that it's a place to build friendship between Grantios and the Water Dragon...... Looking at Las Nottes' reaction, you were apparently right.
