Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"At home."

Sometimes all sorts of stories have come together, and Raymay introduces Mr. Siho while he awaits the arrival of the Sirius or the return of Jin.

"My name is Siho"

And, Mr. Shiho politely greets you.

Kimono in calm shades. I have the impression that she is a soft old lady with a low back. Though, given his history with Raymay, he's probably a strong core figure, even if he looks calm.

Except that her hair and eyebrows have beautiful gray hair, she looks a lot younger. This is probably...... if Raymay shaves her beard, she'll also have all the looking ages.

But when Raymay and I stand side by side, it's really a picture. Do you mean the sense of distance we've spent together for years? The atmosphere is peaceful and calm.

That's why I give this one a token and name it. At the end of the introduction, Mr. Siho smiles with a good smile.

"Thank you, everyone inside."

After that, Siho greets you as well.

"Your Eminence. Long time no see."

"Mm-hmm. Siho looks fine, too, above all."

You and I know each other very well. The two of us exchange words in intimacy.

Speaking of which, when it was in Tsubaki and Jin, you said that although you met the two of them for the first time, there was a shadow of someone you knew... Tsubaki and Shiho feel a little like each other.

And just there comes the bump back. I went to inform Jin that it was going to be a banquet. So I have given an additional message that I want the spider to tell me about it as well.

If you look at it again...... I feel that Shiho and Tsubaki have completely different facial expressions and personalities, but they still resemble each other somewhere.

The ghosts are long lived and not old, so as a generation, there is no wonder how far ahead or later. At least, I don't know about Tsubaki and you, so I think it's a relatively new generation.

That's what you were wondering before, calling a bump and taking a serious peek into your face.

"Hmm. You still have the face of Shiho"

"You're surprised yourself around there. I was told by Shiho that since I am a grandson of five generations, I am surrounded by ancestors, etc."

Five generations away... If they are human, I can guess the age of the general generation, but I don't think the ghosts know the age between generations very well because they are long-lived.

It may not be a coincidence that Raymay and Shiho's generations have emerged in color and that Tsubaki's power appears greater than that of the other ghosts. Is there a Raymay concession part in terms of talent?

"Jin is from the Goulah family, right?

"Oh, don't look so easy on Jin's face."

Siho or Tsubaki laughs at Raymay's response like that.

Then Mr. Siho talks to Raymay in a good mood.

"Nevertheless... didn't you ever invite so many customers inside at once?

"Right. The ships and spiders that are going to fly will also come and be feasting. I'm getting these young people ready to cook and drink."

"It's going to be busy and fun again."

and Raymay and Mr. Siho exchange words in a flamboyant manner.

The Sirius was also letting him head this way at a slow speed, but he said it was time to get to a position he could see from the inside as well. I hear cheers from the outside.

"I see you've seen the Sirius."

"Hmm. Sounds interesting. Then why don't we go check it out?"

Raymay laughed at my words.

"- Oh. Not really a flying ship."

"We'll shine white."

"After all, do we need wings to fly in the sky even on ships?

"Isn't that what you need if you're following me like that?

And when I go outside, the ghosts who came and went are rumouring as they look up at the Sirius like that. Some of them seem to be climbing on the roof.

Well, for those with a thick ghost trait, from adults to children, maybe we should call it boulder where there is no atmosphere of fear at all.

It's a beautiful ship.

"Right. It's brilliant."

And Raymay nods at Mr. Siho's words.

As such, the Sirius docks inside in such a way as to put it on the edge of the flat ground. From there, he unloads the talap and introduces the seven elders, Forceto, Yura and Teal, who were aboard the ship, once again to the lay maids, as well as bringing the liquor barrels and ingredients he brought in one after the other in preparation for the banquet with the ghosts.

"This... is an aromatic scent"

"That's a sweet-scented drink. Hmm. Looking forward to it."

At such a rate, I feel tense about the expectations of the ghosts every time the barrel is brought in. The ghosts should have brought a fair amount because they have the image of drinking heavily... but somehow I feel like I'm going to run out of all the booze overnight. Well... it's fulfilled for the purpose, so I don't mind.

Gin also returns to the inside as we prepare simple pieces of soil magic in the square and cook all the ingredients we bring in.

"Chief, we're back now."

"Oops, hard work. Did the spider guy say anything?

"I'm looking forward to the banquet, but I'm worried about my neighbor's story, so he said he'd be back as soon as possible. I don't mind if we start first, but he wants us to leave the exotic liquor behind."

... I see. Do big spiders like banquets too?

I could see something white flying toward us when we were talking about that. It looked like a big bird's wing, but not if you look closely. They're knitting yarns, forming them like gliders, flying through the sky.

"That's the big spider."

Raymay says. I circle over the inside and it comes down to the ground. As the white mass descends onto the ground, it becomes a large ball of yarn and the yarn waves toward the center, gathering to wind the vortex. Beyond the swirling thread, there is a slight glimpse of the occasional giant spider. A torso similar to a tiger pattern, red eyes and...

The yarn balls themselves shrunk - I thought they were about the size of people, and the yarn bounced from the inside out, and there was a figure standing there. The magic that haunts me is quite dense, and I have the style to just convince you if you tell me you were Raymay's contender.

Long dark hair, red eyes.... you won't be able to help calling me a beauty. You knitted it with yarn or it was wrapped around a white shiny kimono. Tiger pattern around hem. A spider with a tiger pattern...... Earthspiders, I wonder.

Eight. Two of the eyes are in human form, but the remaining six remain in round form, arranged regularly on the forehead like ornaments. I wonder if it looks like Alkeny around there.

"It's been a long time since I've felt like a person, but is it being successfully transformed with something like this?

"It won't be a problem."

"I hope so. Ghosts, snakes, and people's daughters... it's been a long time."

"Yes, Master Big Spider"

Mr. Shiho gives a quiet salute. Are you familiar with the big spider?

"That sounds like a disaster to me."

"You too, snake."

I'll greet you too. That's how the big spider looked around.

"But well...... this sight is astonishing. A white ship floating in the sky, the child of a man who wears the signs of an unlikely man? It also smells like someone close to my family..."

That's what I'm saying. The big spider is turning his gaze here.

"I'll see you first. Name's Theodore. My last name is Wilcloud-Gartner-Forestania. We know people in the West who have spider properties."

"I see. I'm good at it."

The great spider nods to eagle fried. So when I looked around and checked the surrounding conditions, I opened my mouth.

"Hasn't the banquet started yet?"

"Right. I'm not ready yet."

"Then will you finish the troublesome story first? I want to talk to you at the mansion."

"It would be good"

So I leave the preparations for the banquet to everyone, and I will return to the mansion with Raymay and your men. Shiho also helps prepare the banquet, so it's in the form of a different action.

"So, what are you talking about?

"First, can you look at this?

That's what the spider said and took some strange clothes out of his nose to show them. Raymay looked a little surprised when she saw it. The great spider nods quietly.

"Again? He was asked whether he was a neighboring Taoist or a Immortal. Was it actually around last month? He lost his way into our territory and fell into a riot. He was rewarded well... but a large number of small spiders were killed by the corpse the surgeon was using. These clothes were worn by the surgeon and the corpse."

The corpse that was in service... And that garment. A zombie. a.k.a. Kyonsie. I guess it's more of a field of tactics than fairy art......

"The enemy's hand, or...? I'm sorry, it's Noon's fault."

"You're not. Don't underestimate me."

Raymay says, but the spider opens his eyes and denies it to the bottom when he grins with his fangs.

"Even if the purpose of the journey was in the ghost, it was only the man who would work the wolf in the passage, but the late man. You don't fall so far as to hold the person you're going to blame and point the spear at the wrong person? More than that... that bastard wasn't my friend's handler, was he?

"... he has been informed of the situation around the inside. Even if you get lost in Black Mist Valley, you can't do anything to turn you against the enemy. In the first place, he would never let Kioshi be a pawn in battle, nor would he let his disciples."

... There are two kinds of cows. religious that a Taoist would serve to carry a corpse to his hometown, and that the corpse had become a demon.

Sorting out the situation... An enemy Taoist dealing with the Keoshi came to the region looking for Raymay, mistakenly straying into Black Mist Valley and attacking the little spiders and the big spiders, he said.

"Right. Then the Lord of that Shiro, who burned my nest and killed both the little spiders - is also an enemy to me. If you want to go to a neighboring country, I will accompany you. We must give him a taste of what he deserves."

"Uh... come that way"

"Your lord has always been. Double returns are basic…"

Raymay and I float tannic surfaces all together.

"Something inconvenient?

"Non is in a strong position to tell you about this... but this time we have a rival. If I can get you out of my way, I'll take a step."

"Hmm."

The great spider turns his gaze here after a little thought, grinning... strangely friendly grin.

"I don't know how you hear about me from ghosts and snakes... Sora, can I count on you as a helper? You can cross the ocean on your own, but it doesn't make sense that you don't know where the enemy is. Then I have enough belly buildup to fold."

And I'll tell you what. Well, yeah. Big spiders are well connected to their enemies. Turning it down here won't make a good relationship with spiders later either.

"If you promise to work with everyone, that's fine."

and answer instantly. Big spiders are more than monsters, too. If you make a promise, you can't make a difference. If you and Raymay are going to put their trust in the metrics, this one makes them believe in that point too.

"Ooh. Can we talk about it? Fine. I promise. Instead, follow me to the battlefield where I belong."

"I'm going to. By the way, it's called the Great Spider. Do you have any other names?

"No. Speaking of big spiders, this land passes by me. But when I turned into a person, I used to have the pseudonym Orier."

Weaving weight if you want to denote it in kanji, right? Is it from where I deal with spider yarn?

"You may call yourself a great spider in enemy territory, or you may be struck with countermeasures because of your nature, or even if it means hiding who you are, let me call you Mr. Orier"

"Fine. If that's the case, we'll be one of them."

Orier nods.

"Hmm. Shall we exchange hardened cups again? Apparently, the food is good, too, salted plums."

And you laughed bitterly.
