Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

The witch's demeanor regained consciousness after one night of treatment and around noon.

Continuing intelligence gathering and translation work on the bridge since last night, the Five Senses link told me that I was "awake" from Cadkeus in the cabin.

"Oh, apparently I woke up. I think I'll talk to you a little bit."

"Okay. So, you're going to reheat your meal."

When I cut up the work, Grace stood up saying the same thing.

"May I go with Master Theodore, too? I want to ask him if there is any pain after the healing."

"Right. Some of you might feel better about talking to them."

That's why I took Ashley to the cabin.

"Well, I'll keep gathering information on the bridge."

Scion and the others snort, as Sheila says. Everyone will continue the process of gathering information. I wonder what it would be like to push a large number of people against a sickly opponent.

Exit the bridge and take the passage inside the Sirius. According to Cadkeus, there seems to be a part of the witch who is calmly looking at the situation, confused by the unfamiliar interior of the cabin but also checking and surprised by the condition of the injury.

In talking, it is a policy not to disguise or use illusion for the time being.

If you're here on a witch's errand with predictive abilities, you'd better crack a belly and talk to him.

When I knocked on the cabin door and asked if it was okay to come in, I got a confused response.

"... go ahead"

Slightly nervous voice. Set aside for a moment and enter the cabin with Ashley.

The witch who sat on the bunk looked a little surprised to see us. Was it because our age was younger than we imagined, or because of the exotic looks and outfits for her?

"You seem to have regained consciousness. I found myself injured and I was falling on a rock, but I didn't know what the situation was, so I carried him to the ship we came on to treat him, and then I asked him to rest. You've been asleep most of the day."

"... a whole day, is it? Oh, I remember seeing you before I lost consciousness… just a little bit"

After taking a serious look at my face, the witch snorted. Translation magic seems to work properly, though she seems perplexed about it as well.

Nonetheless, it was quick and helpful for me to remember what happened just before I lost consciousness. It was a hassle to be mistaken for kidnapping, etc.

Though he still looks confused, he seems a little relieved because he scratched and explained his current situation and location, or because he saw no hostility here.

That's why I'll briefly introduce myself. There will be sudden and confusion, so introducing yourself will be as little information as possible, and a simple object would be better.

"I say Theodore. She's Ashley. There are other faces aboard the ship, but let me introduce them."

"This is polite. My name is Acorn. First... let me thank you for saving my life. I was suddenly shocked by the flank and thrown off a cliff."

When I name it, I get my residence right and I get a deep thank you. Impact on the flank...... I wondered if he was injured by rock skin when he fell, but he was first shot into the flank and dropped, you mean? After that, he didn't lose consciousness on the way down and suffered an arm injury while trying to protect his head.

It's something I knew from the middle of treatment, but she seems to have a martial arts mind. There are traces of him practicing with a weapon in his hand, and if you actually look where he's awake, that's what the samurai do.

If so, her identity would be the escort of a witch in the capital or something. I was coming to Accommodation Town as a solo traveler - I guess it's because I remember my arm.

When you push her down a cliff by accident like that... is the opponent pretty handy too? Though I think I used a flying tool.

"I treated the injury, but is there any pain or anything left somewhere?

"It's okay, I think. Well, I remember it was quite an injury myself."

And Ashley asks Acorn to look at his arms or do his hand on the flank and say strangely.

"I could use a cure, so I treated my injuries."

"Is it like divine or legal...?

Immortal art, not to say, the system of art of the scroll and the familiar system of art of the acorn will again be different. Even Verdogal and Sylvatria have a system of magic, spells, and so on.

"You can think of it as something similar. As you can see, I'm from a land unknown to this country, but I've been visiting this country due to a few circumstances."

Answering that, Acorn nods with a strange look.

"Yes. Were you? After all, the witch's prophecy is that this..."

And I heard knocking on the door from what I was about to say. Grace brought us a meal.

"Excuse me."

Grace, who has entered the room, will serve porridge and vegetable soup to a table equipped with a cabin. The scent of a meal that slightly tickles the nostrils spreads through the room.

Grace also introduces him to Acorn, then says:

"I think we have a lot to talk about... shall we decide on the details after we eat? We haven't even had lunch, so let's talk again."

"Thank you for the overlap. Really, what can I thank you for"

Acorn has once again bowed his head deeply.

There are so many things we want to ask each other, talk to each other... but Acorn hasn't eaten anything since we lost consciousness.

You'll be telling a story that gets you into quite a bit, and it'll be easier for her to have a meal first and then settle down.

Plus, there are a few things that I found out in my current conversation.

The witch in the capital still seems to have sent acorns in anticipation of our visit.

Acorn himself doesn't seem to have a bad impression of us... and in the meantime, the witch of the capital may also want to see us as friendly.

I don't know if I need to ask the details... In view of the good reputation and social credibility of the witches I've heard in the boarding town, I wouldn't want any more inside as someone to hear about the situation in the East and its neighbors. It seems to be a good idea to gather information from witches and acorns.

But if Acorn was attacked and pushed off a cliff, there's no way we're going to recover the Seekers right away. I don't know if the killer will have a star, but you should still let him infiltrate.

"It was delicious. It was a treat. Your clothes have been repaired."

When she picks up acorns in the cabin in anticipation of the meeting at the end of the meal, she politely thanks Grace. The clothes Acorn wore were torn flanks, but it was also well dried. Grace repaired it and folded it in the cabin and left it there.

Acorn was about to talk, so he seemed to change into his own clothes and wait after the meal.

"If it suits your mouth, it's above all."

When Grace turns her grin, Acorn also smiles back quietly. So we leave the cabin and head to the bridge.

"Big animal demons, magical creatures, etc... I also have a lot of personalized facial touches, but I hope you don't feel safe because there is no danger"

and talk ahead of time about animal groups and magic creatures to the acorns along the way as they walk down the aisle towards the bridge.

"Oh, I see."

I wonder if Akane is feeling a little nervous.

Heading to the bridge, everyone's gaze gathers. Acorn was blinking, seeing faces like Corliss and Teal and Vinckle and Belius. Well, let's start with this face-to-face introduction.
