Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Halvaronis, is it? My lords Theon and I think the birth history is similar to mine."

As I was colluding in the dining room after lunch, the topic shifted to Fuji about Halvaronis.

Talking about the outside world and making them listen, I was talking about how the demons had been involved… When I talked about Halvaronis, Theon and the others told Hervorte about their situation.

"I thought so, too. I didn't know much about the outside world until recently."

"Right. Somewhere, protecting someone, it could be similar."

In Zion's words, Hervorte closed his eyes and returned it that way, either as usual or if there was something to think about, even though he didn't change his expression very much.

"Master Hervorte was protecting the castle, and we were protecting Halvaronis..."

Marcesca looked like she was conceiving on Hervorte's words with a serious face at what time.

"I saw and learned that people are residents of Endewills who want a variety of purposes and reasons in their businesses as well. In my case, I had it from the beginning... but in the case of Theon and the others, did I find it in the place of protecting Forceto and the others?"

"... in our case, it was on its own, but maybe it is."

"In the end, we did it the wrong way, but we wanted to do it because we wanted to do something too... I think Hervorte is right"

And Sigritta and Scion nodded as well.

Whether it's Hervorte or Theon and the others, I'm sure there's a part of you that said you could have come because the person you're trying to protect is the one who deserves it.

Claudia smiled softly when she saw such a conversation between Theon and Hervorte.

Hmm. Though I thought we'd get each other excited if we let them hang out and talk. There are similarities in terms of birth and circumstances.

At least as far as I can tell from the side, the Scions seem to have made a good impression on Hervorte. In the case of Hervorte, it is hard to tell from a glance, but it seems to be the preferred reaction based on Claudia's appearance.

Mallane is also grinning because Claudia is looking happy.

"Again, thank you"

and Theon and Hervorte shake hands with each other. Even if we think about training at the castle, a good relationship would be welcome.

"With that said, training at the castle, what do you do? Didn't you have a lot of plans?

With that in mind, Hervolte turned to me and asked.

"Oh, I don't know what to do. Sure, I did a real fight today, and I trained right after that."

Sometimes Hervorte is right about handling demonic materials and determining their use.

"I wonder if it's enough to get me used to the deep end for today. After this, we'll take a little tour of the castle, and then we'll go home."

"Hmm, will you? By looking at the entrance in the basement and then going home, I decided on the position of the hider and everything. Training starts tomorrow."

"As long as I watched the battle, you were all making sharp and precise moves. I feel like I can teach new formations, tactics, and tactics to the demons who guard the castle."

I see. I guess the Beast Nights and Little Soldiers are labyrinth demons, but Hervorte, who heads the castle demons, can also give instructions and teach the demons how to fight a new battle.

Demons with specs that can meet advanced demands and commanders who are forced to change tactics ad hoc according to their opponents. Considering this, the castle's defense is more than I thought.

Well, it seems we have something to gain from each other, most importantly.

"- This castle is full of interesting things. Though so is this pumice."

"It's the entrance to the library while you're looking at it. That's nice in there."

"I can't wait to train with those knights."

and Princess Stephania and Princess Adriana are also satisfied to see all sorts of things in the castle.

We took a break after dinner, and then we looked around the castle. The entrance to the library also had the specification that the sculpture would move and make its way, as during the glance.

That's how I looked all the way around and then rode the pumice and came down from Claudia's living quarters.

They also showed me about Claudia's private room... but basically they don't use it much. They often stay in a western museum they built in the labyrinth village, and they'll show you there next time they get a chance. I'm guessing Claudia would be a more thoughtful place to be.

"I still know the position of the hider is good between the pumice stones and the entrance to the basement center."

Where the pumice has descended to the bottom and the curtains of light surrounding him have disappeared, Hervorte asks Claudia with the whole of Haider in her arms.

"Right. If we hold on to those two points, we'll be fine for now."

"Okay, let's go to this place first"

Where Claudia's permission had been granted, Hervorte said so and let Haider go among the pumice stones. Haider crouches into place as he walks in a slight foothold at the behest of Hervorte. Then it assimilated to its surroundings and became invisible.

"With regard to this pumice, will it still not work without permission from Master Claudia or Hervorte?

"Right. I don't really envisage putting people in the back much longer than I did, but this place isn't going to start unless we're allowed to do it in the sense of anti-intruder."

Claudia nods at Grace's question.

"Well. Then I'll show you to the entrance to the basement central section. We're in this together, so don't get out of it."

That being said, Claudia walks out towards one of the passages that leads from between the pumice stones. We went after it too.

The aisle is a few minutes narrow compared to the corridor until then. There are many side roads and so on, and as Claudia put it, they seem quite intertwined.

Turning left to the right, you go out to the open place. It was the exact same place of making between pumice stones.

"It doesn't look like he's back..."

Rosemary looked surprised for a moment, but she says so much about the directions she had walked so far in her head.

"Right. There are several similar places between pumice, but they're all different places. If you choose the wrong path, you'll be walked back to where you came from."

I see...... You're going to be confused trying to make a map if you don't leave it with a landmark.

Even if they were invaded, if they were searching long enough, Claudia and Hervolte would detect them and place a large number of demons at the point where they would be returned and ambush them, etc.

The same is true between pumice stones, because there are passages in all directions in the square. It's a good idea to surround it.

As for Claudia, he's rolling out an unidentified magic circle on hand. Sounds more like the right directions to get to your destination than a surgical ceremony. Sometimes I lead everyone while checking magic circles at bends and such.

So... how long did you walk? I went out to a square with the same structure a few times, but the last place I arrived through the square was - again a familiar place where a spiral staircase was set up in the inner diameter of a large hole leading longitudinally.

"It looks like the entrance to the labyrinth. Rather than that, does that mean that place is similar here?

"Yeah. I will. At the bottom of this is not the stone tablet, but the equipment to get into the center...... It's a corner, let's go downstairs."

Take the spiral staircase down to the square below. And... we got to the bottom.

It was still a square, just like the labyrinth, but there were many pillars standing like a temple, like a rainbow springs in its center.

Is it water or what? It reflects the view around like a mirror. It's beautiful... but it's full of magic that I feel on my skin without having to use monocular glasses.

"Can we get down from here to the center?

"Yeah. If you jump into this fountain, it'll be an area under the control of the Last Guardian. It's also inside the moon's ships, which merge into the Earth's veins."

Claudia nodded at Sheila's words.

... I see. Is the center of the labyrinth Claudia's moon ship itself? No, it's fused, so it doesn't necessarily retain the look of the ship.

Going through and into the centre means that this fountain probably acts like a gate.

Whatever the case, the search for the place that went ahead of the gate starts tomorrow. Let's say we pull up for today and talk about Alfred and his new magic gear, etc.
