Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"I'll do my best. Your Highness."

"No. If you say that my presence will lead to the importance of the country, then naturally."

And, guided by soldiers, Elena's stepnephew, Quentin-Beshmerk, comes to the top of the outer wall. You don't look too used to wearing it, but you're dressed in fine armor and dressed to handle wartime.

The soldier leaves the scene graciously, and Quentin sees Elena's face, revealing her surprise, while graciously naming her name. Introducing myself briefly from here too, Quentin said.

"Surprised. Is it Jen on the brink of His Highness Gabriella? I feel like you know why I'm here."

You seem to think that Quentin is someone who is related to Gabriella's grandmother because of Elena's appearance.

"It is not so, Your Highness Quentin"

Gabriella tells him it's a misunderstanding.

"What do you mean?

"I'm going to ask His Highness to be present to explain it."

And, says Bartholomew.

"... Hmm. Sounds more like a story than I imagined."

Apparently Bartholomew briefly wrote a letter and told him about Xanaelk and the current situation, so it's not a problem to move on to explanations like this.

Turning her gaze to Elena, she nodded, too. That's how I step forward and open my mouth.

"I think it's a problem to make it public at the moment, so I'd like you not to get too upset around me... I - I named myself Elena, my current name earlier, but I'm Hermentrude himself"

Yes, I confess.

Quentin looked open and looked seriously at Elena's face.

I guess the other nobles, the knights and the sorcerers were not informed about Elena. It's like a startling reaction all the time.

"We can talk about what happened at the time if we have to, Bartholomew and I remember seeing you at an early age -"

And, as I did to Marquis Malblanche, what happened at the time...... and Elena, who talks about fine events. Bartholomew too...... I guess that extended my imagination to the general situation. He nodded quietly at Elena's words or returned questions, and nodded that Elena had indeed spoken of what had happened at the time.

"I... didn't go back. You can't be brought back to King Xanaelk because of circumstances that are not publicly known about the engraved witch princess. Now if I die, the next witch princess will appear in the kingdom again. Discussed with Master Baskar while drifting on a boat, scratched the king's pursuit about the magical sleep, and stopped the witch princess from falling into the king's hands. I woke up only recently."

"Then His Highness Elmentrude, who has returned to the kingdom..."

"Do you mean the King's Shadow Warrior..."

Elena nodded at the words of Bartholomew and Quentin.

"But don't insult Gabriella or her grandmother for that. Master Gabriella worried about the kingdom and asked me to help her. My grandmother was threatened and used. She was not a puppet, but she worked hard for peace and told Gabriella the truth. I hereby pronounce you both Orthodox Witch Princesses"

"Dear Elena..."

To Elena's words, close your eyes so Gabriella can feel it. They nod with a strange face at Elena's rhetoric and atmosphere such as not allowing any objection.

"But... why did both kings and princesses need to do that?

Bartholomew asks. Right. Both Xanaelk and Elmentrud would react that way if they didn't know what was behind it.

"The true role of the engraved witch princess - because it lies in sealing the calamities that have occurred in the mistakes of the kingdom of the past and also in telling future generations about the memory of those tragedies by renewing the memory of the calamities throughout the ritual. The king - broke his promise to the queen of his ancestors. They reached for a sealed contraindication that it was unavailable in some way. That's not all. Gathering unaccompanied children from all over the world and working with Diadora on research against humanity."

Elena turns her gaze to Steven and the others.

"At the Royal Palace underground research building. We were built to be living weapons. We can use different powers. Like this."

Steven unleashes a white shockwave into a space of nothing. Let the children demonstrate their abilities by wrapping ice around their fists and deploying shadow swords.

"Oh my... I mean..."

"He said he used the kids to experiment."

"That's why I escaped because I didn't like handling experimental animals. The Marquis - well, there was no connection behind it, as the world had told me, but he was looking into those experiments and occasionally helped me."

"... as the deputy chief magician of the court, I discovered the circumstances that could not be mentioned and the fact that a study of the matter was being conducted. While we've been studying these circumstances, we've been questioned by the King, and you know it."

In the wake of Steven's words, Marquis Malblanche says: At that time, the Beshmelk soldiers who were listening also open their mouths.

"Oh, me... we - all of us lost our physical freedom with His Majesty's magic, and we felt terribly violent... that's how we flew through the sky and stormed around in battle!

"His Majesty Ignado and the others tried to hold us back from getting hurt as much as possible because we are just being manipulated......! If it were true, kill it and that would have been done right away......!

"Lord Boundary put up his body to stop the great magic in an effort to save us too -! So what I'm saying from earlier... and I think it's true!

And the soldiers verbally proclaim.

Many of the king's evil deeds, which are revealed one after the other, had expressions that shocked him with boulders. The magicians present at the scene were also hardened.

- I also know from the story of the sorcerer who informed the Marquis of Malblanche that if the department were different, the whole picture of the study would not have been informed. You'll need to take a good look at the individual without judging him solely by his position. There's a magical interrogation, and Avril and Satori, so it's not hard to prevent a wrongful crime from happening.

Wait for them to settle down, and Elena goes on with the words.

"The King - for the fifty years I have not returned - has been searching for and studying the means to exploit contraindications for many years. I - relying on the help of Lord Boundary, who helped me, investigated the continuation of the study and came to the certainty that there was no doubt… that it was combined with a mechanism like this one. Let some slander me as a traitor to the kingdom. But it was King Xanaelk who betrayed the will of the kingdom in the first place… let's argue so now"

When they heard those stories, they were quiet as if they had no words.

Eventually, Quentin waves his cover and opens his mouth.

"The king was going to use my... my son for some sort of experiment, too. I had declared that because I would give my succession the education it deserved as the next king and that by the time I was three, I would take it from me and my wife... I can't tell you whether or not... even though we are distancing ourselves from the king, I was even wondering how much and how dissatisfied I am with my wife."

Quentin's words - you're right about what Gabriella tells you.

"... the king was rejuvenated by the spell. This is just a guess, but maybe somewhere there was a plan to replace him as the next king."

When I say that, Quentin opens his eyes and hands on his mouth, giving him the look of a war run.

"Something... come to mind?

"Wow, a little after the birth of a child between us... there was a time when the king came to see the face of his great-grandson. At that time my son was asleep... and my wife was asked by the king about the colour of her eyes. At that time... when I told him it was the same color as the king... he rejoiced at the similarity, but he felt that the way he laughed didn't belong to his great-grandfather, who rejoiced about his great-grandson, and he was afraid of why. That's what my wife said. They asked me to hand it over... just after that."

Although Quentin is blue-faced and waves his hand around his forehead.

... right. Maybe that's for sure.

We are all familiar with the young king. There are many who are flattered by the story of Quentin about what to say.

That's how. Queen Aurelia told me to take over the place.

"The reason we've been visiting like this is because of all these experiences. As for the enclosed contraindication of the witch princess, it would have been a greater threat if she had been freed in earnest, bringing disaster to the world. So - in the future, we want to make it a situation where those with ambitions cannot be touched by contraindications. We hope that abominable research that violates humanity will not be carried out earlier, but we all need to keep our promises."

"No country knows no mistakes or tragedies. It's not just about this one, it's about us, and I can't stay with other people when I think about what's going to happen. But still, I guess we have to learn from it and move on so that we don't repeat the same thing."

King Ignado said that to Queen Aurelia's words and closed his eyes quietly.

Right. Right. Perhaps that is true of every country. Beshmelk nobles, knights, magicians in line...... No one complained of the war.

Quentin faces Bartholomew and nods.

"I understand exactly what you're saying. We have no intention of engaging."

"We also have a long history of war power differences. On top of that, I will not be a fool to shed new blood. I would like to disarm you and have a seat for discussion again, what do you say?"

"Of course. And that's what we want."

That's what Queen Aurelia said and nodded.

That's when. From somewhere in the air we're discussing, something like this gathers. This... is a known magic reaction.

"This is-"

"- No. It's okay. Don't worry about it."

Gabriella replies to the Quentins, who find themselves in surprise, and Elena nods.

"Those who live now. Each will and decision. They did let me see it through."

Say so. A burning red-haired queen manifests herself there.

Her Majesty Queen Parteniara, Queen of the First Fathers.

In the words of Elena, the heavy towns of Beshmerk, who lived side by side, will now be all together to raise their voices of surprise.
