Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

That's how a night at the inn dawns... I get myself together, and when I have breakfast, we all roll out to the Royal Library.

There were no particular problems with admission, and the guards were able to enter without being called to stop.

Once inside the library...... it was a quiet space with the smell of books.

"This is -- it's quite a size compared to the library I've seen so far."

"Sylvatoria's... I wonder if it's like the Tower of the Legion"

Stefania agrees when Grace looks up inside the library and leaks her thoughts.

The library is quite huge with only the royal family. The center is blown out, five stories. The interior of the library is made with a visible line-up of bookshelves, with elaborate wall and pillar decorations.

The impression that the area is bigger on the side than the tower would make the book quite considerable.

The underground library of Lord Wagner, Groufonica, etc. in the towers of Termwilds, Forestania and Silvatria… I've seen a lot, but the library of Geovelm is also quite something.

"Oh. That's the Papetians she said last night."

There was a counter in the hall on the ground floor, where the Papetians were on the subject. Somehow, I feel intimate because of the libra.

I thought it was a wooden body. I have a ceramic body... white skin, blonde hair, and if you look far away, you look like a person... but the mouth is not open. Is it the type of doll or is it molded in one piece, if you look at your hands, it is a sphere joint, so you can tell.

That's probably why the Diabolos were able to affirm that they were a race that didn't know us.

Approaching the counter, the Papetian clerk spins the words in a gratuitous manner when he sees this one with the eyes of a vitreous ball.

"Welcome aboard. Looking for any books?

And the mouth that spins the words doesn't move at all. If you say it in the vicinity of humans, there's a big magic reaction near the heart, and I can see the magic from it circling the body.

"Right. There's something else that bothers me… First I'm looking for books on geographic and historical relationships"

Geographic relations are an area that puts one foot in the military when it comes to detail, so the books you can view won't be a big deal either, but it's a big mess here.

Because it's meant to make it easier to make a story about where we came from. I'm sure it's better not to make much of a story than to have a simple magic interrogation in a crystal sphere, but that depends on the situation, too. It doesn't hurt to have knowledge.

As for the history books...... I have the purpose of organizing the situation by knowing the present from the past of the Demon King and the Demon Kingdom. This information is also mandatory to guess the thoughts and history of the Demon King in office.

Fangonoids are after grasping geography and history. It is difficult to speculate on the position of the fangonoid without knowing the general demonic interests, power relationships, etc.

"The geography and history books available for viewing - will be around that part of the ground floor and that part of the third floor, respectively. If I get the actual costs and fees, I'll make you a copy of the inventory, what will you do?

A copy of the inventory… can you do that? The price is also only real cost and a small fee, and when asked because it is quite conscientious, the Papetian scribe nods, and uses the technique on them side by side with the inventory books and paper and ink kettles.

The strings written in the catalogue book emitted light, and the ink in the kettle moved to react and dance through the air, drawing letters on paper.

"Interesting magic."

The clerk nods when Stephania says.

"It's copybook magic. You have magical craftsmanship in the ink on this inventory, which is the original."

I see. It's magic that works on a set, not on its own.

The clerk looked at us and said he would pick up a copy of the inventory he was able to do and pay for it.

"Ladies and gentlemen... you are all beautiful. This inspires a willingness to shape. Yeah."

And he is a scribe who looks at everyone and snorts. The Papetians seem to be a race that strives for beauty, not only in their own bodies, but also in their garments and crafts.

"That's above all, should I say"

"Hehe. Yes, it's a pleasure for us."

The secretary replied in a good mood. That's how he also guides me to places where there are geographic, historical books, and desk and chair locations on each floor and tells me, "If anything happens, I'm at the counter, so I want you to call me casually".

Because of this, it is forbidden to bring books in, but cafes are also set up on the library grounds, so it is possible to eat and drink lightly if you are thirsty or hungry. "Researchers, etc. have been set up together because they will be doing research for a long time," the clerk told me and went back to the counter.

"Thank you for being able to sit in the long streets."

Rosemary was nodding across the feather fan. Right. It's easy not to have to sit in the middle and go outside the library when you're hungry.

Well, let's just say we look at a copy of the inventory and look for a book that might fit the purpose. At first... from a historical relationship.

Wiz already remembers copies of the inventory, so I'll keep them for everyone and stare at books that might help by whispering the title.

While picking up books of interest in this way, Cadkeus and I will communicate the translated title of the catalogue on a telecom.

Once we've all split up and picked a book, it's time to move to the table and start looking into it. If you cover your surroundings with soundproofing magic to avoid annoyance, it's a recital for everyone. Ask the Diabolos to check the text that we read so that no misread translations can occur.

The translated contents are also relayed to the Sirius. The important part should be that Valor uses water magic and ink to keep it as a memoir. Okay. Let's just say we start.

It still takes a little while because we need to take the step of translating and reading. I split up and read the book, but it's inevitable that it takes a lot of work. We caught a break on the way and proceeded with the work by using the cafe...... Will I return to the inn in time after the break? Well, I went out as early as possible in the morning and did most of my day's research. Though it's worth it and the information I want is gathered a little bit at a time.

I could do a lot of research on the demon king association I was wondering about in historical books. The Bloomwoods have a lot of knowledge to supplement it.

They say the Demon King will be elected from among the species living in the demon kingdom by criteria that are not open to the public, and the inheritance of his throne will take place.

Some demon kings in history raised their successors, but they are not necessarily chosen from among them. Nor does it seem that the bloodline will fit into the succession of the Demon King... in fact, in the past there seemed to be demon kings of all races.

"The selection criteria are not known. The timing of inheritance is also less regular. Nevertheless, once you become the Demon King, you don't seem to replace it with anything rare."

Claudia says as she drinks tea.

"Right. When it comes to this… I feel that it is not very secular interest to inherit the throne to have standards,"

"Because it may not be inherited by the heirs or blood clans you raised, is it?

Ashley tilts her neck.

"Yeah. You say there are examples of neither of them. Suitability or ability or personality… or more… is there any special condition? Though I don't know that. It seems possible that I chose it on merit... because there were instances where I found a successor from the minister, but I guess it's on hold."

If we look into the area, we may get new information again, but right now, well, isn't there enough information?

"Mm-hmm. Speaking of merit...... interesting are the achievements and footprints of the demon kings of history"

Mallane snorts with a serious look, too, Sheila says. Right. It seems to be fortified compared to Rungardo, goblins, oaks, and a race with fewer absolutes, but also orga and trolls still seem to be incompatible. There seemed to be times of war when hostile races were dealt with, including such races.

It seemed to be a more cluttered group of small nations going back in time, but it was at the beginning of this country that one of them named the Demon King as the first Demon King.

If you are a hostile but interactive opponent, you have merged in war, and if you are a neutral opponent and you can negotiate, you can conveniently incorporate it into the demon kingdom... and it seems that it is in the form of the demon kingdom that you are able to do so.

Territorial expansion has slowed down from a certain period. Fighting goblins and oaks is also on fire compared to the past, so this has become clear with the luxury of the demonic kingdom, I guess.

When I saw the paper compiling that information, Elena said.

"Does it mean that at least the Demon King has no intention of expanding the print?

"The demon kings of the past... I was under the impression that it was not possible to use force as a backdrop."

Express your views while also conceiving Parteniara in Elena's words.

Right. Right. In some cases, reconciliation took place in a peaceful manner, with support and alliances being brought not only to the neutral species but also, in some cases, to those who were hostile, and then demonic kings were elected and annexed from that species.

Apparently, a multi-racial state is consistent from the stage of perception and erection.

Of course those descriptions should be considered minus the point of view from the Demon King's side... but there seems to be a lot of demon kings in the stance that they would do so if the conversation were with someone that makes sense. Is it a country, or is it something to do with the inheritance of the Demon King - is that what qualities are?

Or the inheritance of the Demon King by passing on memories such as possession of another flesh, as Beristio did... it is better not to rule it out as a possibility.

The person who will take it if you have negotiations, I think.

The answer is no, if that's all you can say about the door of the demon world. If you want as many races and talents as possible from the Demon Kingdom, you can think of asking the Rungard side for them. It will still be necessary to keep gathering information like this for a while.
