Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 65, the thoughts of the Beast King...

First, guide the whole city through the street before welcoming it in your castle. I plan to go to Phantom Theatre and Sports Park at dawn overnight.

In it, King Ignado expects to get some sort of reaction... well, what do you think?

King Ignado was looking at the view from the top of the tower, but nodded as he turned this way.

"Hmm. I guess I made you wait"

"No, more than anything if you liked the view from here."

"Right. Good landscape."

King Ignado distorts the edge of his mouth as he responds to me.

Do you understand the expression if you are conscious? He used pumice stones from the entrance square to snort small as he was impressed when descending below.

That's why I'm going from the outer gate to the whole city, and I'm going to show you around Forestania. Even though it is divided into sections, vacant land still stands out in the streets, so will we be guiding the Lord around the area facing the boulevard?

"It is a relay point for the adventurers because it can travel bi-directionally with the branches of the labyrinth. So besides tourists and merchants, I thought I'd see a lot of adventurers."

"I see. Is that crowd... rumored theater of phantoms?"

"It will. The seats have been filled for a while, so it will be a special screening outside normal screening hours when guiding His Majesty."

"That's exciting."

And while we talk about that, we also walk around inside the sports park and look at observation decks, runways, playground, etc., and explain various things. As far as the runway was concerned, it was part of the exercise encouragement, and King Ignado also seemed to show considerable interest. The country itself, Einfeus, encourages self-training.

"The idea of practicing while having fun is good. If you can use training as your own entertainment rather than as a means, it will often be accomplished. As king of Einfeus, it's an impressive institution."

Hmm...... It's like I learned those words in a discourse or something. Did it mean that those who know do not extend to those who prefer, but to those who enjoy…? Sure... I don't know what it might be.

I feel like I know a little bit about the emotional microscopy of King Ignado as I look around those institutions and all over the city and get asked a lot of questions and answers to them. Maybe it's relaxing, I think...

That's how I came to the city square that leads to the castle, and King Ignado asks me.

"Hmm. What's that?

"It will be a temple. of the Moon Goddess and the Spirit. And then... it's a temple dedicated to the noble demon who lost it in battle."

"... worship the devil, huh? I wonder why."

King Ignado stops and looks straight at me and asks.

What, I wonder? The atmosphere is a little different from the relaxed one we had earlier...... no, obviously not. This is what I've been asking with a serious eye… so does it fit? But I don't feel pressurized.

If so, did the purpose of King Ignado's visit involve demons? Then how does King Ignado, king of the beasts, intertwine with the demons?

... the question that comes to mind is put elsewhere once.

I'm the one who was asked. Then you have to answer that. If you're going to be questioned about demons, it's not a rush or a convenience, it's just a grand statement of my thoughts and policies. So whoever I get turned against is sympathetic, but I don't change my own mind, and I have to, I feel like.

"If you talk, it'll be longer."

"I want you to let me know."

There was no stray in King Ignard's response. Nod and head to the temple dedicated to the devil. There is a stone tablet engraved with the altar and words of prayer for the soul.

Forceto also refrained from being the keeper of the temple, and when he saw us, he quietly gave us a compliment.

"I'll see you first. Your Majesty Ignado, I am entrusted with the administration of this temple, my name is Forceto."

"Mm-hmm. It's Ignado, the Beast King of Einfeus. Just for a moment, excuse me."

and introduce King Ignado and Forceto, then start talking.

"I - because in the middle of the battle two high-ranking demons entrusted me with something earlier: Vallos and Beristio. Earlier... I think it wasn't just about us and the demons, it was about all sorts of things."

If we're going to talk about this, we have to talk about the nature of the demons and Istrum.

"Demons gain the nature of eating the negative emotions of others instead of gaining mighty power and long life spans. That... it will be for each person to see it. I... in the end, I think it's something close to the price and curse of power."

Demons who do not reach awakening prefer to destroy others in order to satisfy their hunger, and the everlasting high-ranking demons have no enemies because of their strength, and they can eat the fear of others without doing anything. I was therefore so tired of living that I wanted a place to die in the battle.

Gardinis was slightly different in colour... but if you listen to a lot of stories and now look back and think about it, you don't like being like any other high-ranking demon, and it also seems like he was consciously pursuing it with a secular goal in mind.

He - Istrum and maybe it came at the price of power. Though I'm not even going to defend what he's done.

About your mother. About the Dead Sleeping King. That he threw himself into the battle against Lynette, the demon who broke out in the city. We'll talk about the fight from then on. There are parts of the labyrinth that I can't tell the boulders about, but I can tell them anything about me and the Demon Man.

"- That's how… Istrum, one of the oldest high-ranking demons who, because of the nature of the demons, has come to want ruin - devised a massive destruction that would destroy men, demons and spirits alike. I betrayed Vallos on the earth, who was leading the demons. At the end of the day, Vallos entrusted me with strength and skill to stop him. Vallos wanted change, but he didn't want ruin."

And at the same time, Vallos' contemplative future was entrusted. He wanted a change from his position as a demon. But I can't be. As for me, I can only change shape and take over Vallos' thoughts.

"It was the same thing Beristio, the allies of the demons who had been sealed, who tried to stop the ruin desired by the Dead Sleeping King. Freed from the seal, he also chose no hostile path to us, and threw his life to stop Istrum's remaining technique of mass destruction."

So pray for the souls of the demons scattered throughout the battle. The earth and the moon still survive, because it is also due to their will. Fighting Istrum and the Last Guardian is too much...... I don't know what would have happened without the cooperation of Vallos and Beristio.

"So... you're thinking of coexisting with the devil, huh? No, I heard this rumor."

Rumor is... well, the position is clear.

I don't know what the demons think of this right now. There will be vigilance, and some people won't want that in the first place... but we should be able to reach out to each other.

"Yes. Two demons, who were near Vallos' side, are helping me by taking over his will. At the moment we are at a stage where we are holding back the cause of eating negative emotions by sealing our nature as demons...... I said we will eat immortality, chi and emotions in the future, we are moving towards the goal of disarming demonization itself. Then... they'll be able to walk with other races."

"Cooperation, huh? Talking to them... No, it's not."

King Ignado shook his first words.

"That made me hear my thoughts, including in my own mind. If you don't do your best, you don't deserve to talk about it anymore."

The tone of King Ignado, so to speak... was a calm and quiet one.

Oh, well. Did King Ignado feel like he was hiding something because he couldn't decide whether to reveal what circumstances he had against me?

Whoa, whoever can talk about it, with circumstances that don't reveal it. You've been trying to judge my personality, so it's the way I've been in contact... or something? It is possible that those around us misunderstood King Ignard's intentions because we had to take a far-fetched approach.

I do know that if it comes to demon entanglement, I would be cautious...

Beast King and Demon Man. And with me. I still don't know how it's a story that connects. But at least I can't feel anything malicious about King Ignado so far. First, let's talk about it.
