Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 126, reconnaissance and rescue.

It is a search from above, albeit a reconnaissance of an uninformed strange land. If it's the road, it shouldn't take that long to find it. The point is, we just have to go straight ahead and cross somewhere.

The bigger the path, the easier it is to find, and along the coast it tends to develop as a port or fishing village in any country, and roads are easy to develop. Not to mention that island countries can't possibly not use the sea for traffic.

If we can find fishing villages and paths along the sea, we'll likely be able to trace them and track the boats to a large base later.

Later, we'll follow the road from high altitude... and we'll find people as far away as we can by Life Direction and send the Seekers in. That's good.

Either the problem then shifts the focus to what to do with infiltration and contact with residents for information-gathering. It would be difficult to get around freely if there was a place like Sekiguchi, but I don't think it's better than a difficult situation where warring countries are in the middle of nowhere.

Lindblum, if you go with the Seekers to the seaplains, you will eventually see pompous islands and land across the ocean. I thought I might see a boat off the coast, but it was already at dusk. The ship was invisible. Moreover, the coastline is not a beach, and there are many slightly cut rocks.

"- A coastal road? I found it."

I had some anticipation, but I was able to draw the road lightly.

"Keep this distance and fly in the western direction to find a settlement"

Lindblum nods at my words and flicks his wings and changes course.

We came to gather information about the continent across the sea to the west in the first place, so it's west rather than heading east. It is better to do it closer to the north than to the south.

As I flew along the sea looking down the road on my right hand side, I was able to witness the appearance of the inhabitants of the eastern country who were about to lose it and continue down the road.

Some people in travel clothes and others in relatively light clothes. Who is not a travel dress, a neighbor?

Being able to travel in small numbers also means that security is relatively good. The roads are in order, and there is no magic accumulation nearby, so there will be no dangerous demons or monsters.

What caught my eye... was that somehow the Beast Man was walking too. Naturally, the Beast also wraps his kimono around him.

If this is... isn't it hard for Ingway to infiltrate? Although I can't be sure because I don't know what's going on with the treatment and positioning of the beast man.

He was going along with various interesting indications of the attire and possessions of those on the road, but eventually he sees a lot of light of life reactions in the direction of progress. Along the sea...... I see a town-like settlement.

Wooden houses popped into my eyes as I magnified them with light magic. thatched roof houses, tiled roof mansions.... It's not an emotional sight even for me.

The number of life reactions visible in the town is quite high. Would it be a base for a trip like an inn? If that's the case, I'd say it's suitable for gathering information.

I guess everything that goes down the road is going for that lodging town. Sometimes the time was dusk, and no one seems to want to go from the lodging town to the rest of the land now.

I guess I'm trying to get into the lodging town before sundown completely. Many were in a hurry.

"Lindblum. On that rock"

- Along the coast. So let's get closer to the less life-responsive rocks and send in the Seekers from there. Down to the rocks with Lindblum, paying close attention to concealing himself with light and wind magic.

I'll get the Seekers out of the bag, point them in the direction they need to go, and I'll put them on the rock.

We also have a detailed exchange of progress with everyone on the bridge of the Sirius on the Cadkeus comms plane. The Explorers were instructed by everyone and immediately assimilated to the rock and proceeded in the direction of the settlement.

... All right. Will this take the form of going back to the Sirius and focusing on gathering information for a while?

Rise again across Lindblum into the sky.... I just want to gather a little more information, but sending in a seeker might not help me stay long.

I rode up on Lindblum, looked around... I saw a strange life reaction to a chopped coastal rock nearby.

... what? Is that reaction... weak, huh? The life response is human, but it feels faint for a long time.

"- Lindblum. To that rock."

Instruct Lindblum sensibly in a magical circulation and rush to a rocky place where he could see a life response. Wave strike on the rock. I saw something caught on the rock where the waves could hit me.

- Human. Human. A faint life response.

I wanted to avoid contact within I don't know the situation - except in case of an emergency. Dramatically descend Lindblum and descend into the rocks.

It was a well-formed, young woman. I know it's a traveling costume... traveling alone?

There are no figures around. Or was there a confessor?

It was at dusk and I didn't know it from a distance, but apparently it's bleeding from somewhere. I saw red blood spreading across the sea.

I don't know where you're injured. Float in the air to avoid strain on the body in the levitation and perform a circulating smell to identify the location of the injury.

Are you badly injured on your flank? Hydromagic prevents any further bleeding from the flank wounds prior to analysis. A laceration, but the wound is distorted and not a knife wound. Did you fall, cut it on a rock or something?

If you fell, you'd be satisfied. You tried to cover your head, and your arm was injured. The bones seem to be broken, too.

"Uh-huh."

With the groans, his gaze fits for a moment, but his consciousness is also hazy, and he closes his eyes immediately.... My healing magic is water on a burning stone. I can't deal with this without Ashley.

"I'll make sure the injured don't strain me over here, so just fly me full of eyes"

Using levitation, he holds the injured and crosses Lindblum again while maintaining the camouflage. When Lindblum raised his voice, he flew off the ground with momentum and began flying with fierce momentum in the direction of the berthing of the Sirius.

"I found the injured man. Could be a fall accident. I'm doing first aid to make sure he doesn't die, so ask him to be able to deal with it as soon as he gets back. I want the Sirius closer too."

Put everyone in touch with Cadkeus's comms.

"Okay! Stand by on deck!

Immediately Ashley reacts and rises with a serious face, and Alpha also moves the Sirius in the direction indicated by Cadkeus. It is headed from two directions, so the relative distance between the two shrinks at a fierce rate.

"Multiple lacerations and fractures to the flank and arms. Heavy is a flank wound. Please do it first. '

Communicate injury status before arrival.

The Sirius is approaching. All right. I think I can handle it. He descends sharply with Lindblum and descends onto the deck, hurrying the injured but lying quietly.

"Ashley, please!

"Ha!"

When Ashley rushed over and checked the wound condition on the Magic Sonar immediately, she unfolded multiple magic circles.

"Here we go!

Ashley closes her eyes and shows extreme concentration in the unfolding of the surgical ceremony. Hemostasis, wound purification, tissue recovery and physical recovery. Multiple surgical formulas have been developed.

Rough breaths become calm and redness appears on her earthy cheeks. This is... I think I can handle it.

The Sirius also turned around when I stepped down to the deck. As usual, it's no different than docking off the coast at a distance.

"Are you okay? Is there anything I can do to help?

Everyone shows their faces on deck. Seekers are letting them lurk on the ground for now because the situation is so insignificant.

"I want you to prepare a change of clothes so that your body doesn't get cold. I think the steeple field has gone up. If you're treating me, I think I'll make it."

When they answered, they all nodded with a slightly soothing look.
