Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 732 Demon King's Castle Ritual Site

Queen Meggiastra took me out of the Fangonoids' compartment once I took the light lift to the lowest level of the castle... there was plenty of room there.

Robust building materials with magic. Huge columns supporting the entire compartment and six columns emitting blue and white light arranged to enclose the central altar apart from it. There is also an international large crystal column positioned behind the altar, which appears to be built just to come to the center of the compartment.

Is it still crystal on the walls and floors, or was glass building materials laid down, thereby drawing a magic formation?

"This is again... wow"

It gives Stefania a surprised look as she looks around.

Of course, demonic stone powder is also laid under glass building materials. Illuminated by the blue light rising from the magic formations and columns, the whole compartment is illuminated from a different light source… a place with a medium atmosphere.

The magic formations on the floor and the central pillars will be for communicating with the Spirit and sending strength. Since it is a place to communicate with the Spirit, I also have the impression that the full magic is clean.

The entire compartment is hexagonal, and the magic formations painted on the walls seem to be instrumental in supplying this ritual venue with the magic accumulated in the Tower of Thought Crystals. And this glowing pillar...

"Is this glowing pillar something that was added later?

"It's a boulder to see at a glance. Exactly. You're condensing the power extracted from the magic enhancer and accumulating it."

Queen Meggiastra tells me. Yeah. You said you'd use the enhancer to aid in the ritual. Instead of being taken by Queen Meggiastra, it means that the number collected and condensed is used as a device with the characteristics intact. After all, it can be said that the magic technology of the demonic kingdom is quite expensive.

"Because there were columns on that path, which conveyed the magic supplied by the crystal tower. There's an inconsistency in the column's magic response, and it still looks like an incomplete impression."

"Right. I was wondering if we'd need a little more time to finish the pillars homogeneously."

Can't we just start the ritual?

He said there was a way to find out what was going on.

"Right. I was thinking of identifying anomalies by communicating with the Spirit and connecting them with circulating smell, and in some cases, using countermeasures as is... Given the fact that the Spirit is refraining from activities to prevent distortion from progressing, and given the current state of affairs, which is not fully prepared for rituals, it may be better to proceed with the investigation of the floating palace first."

"Assume what happens before you come into contact with the Spirit."

"Yes, if things go on with the Spirit being activated, this one has to move on, and we can't deny the possibility that the enemy is waiting to perform the ritual. If you're worried, you've never crossed the line before, but I was wondering if we should make sure everything was okay."

"Right. It is also possible that the investigation will identify the outgoing enemy and its home base. If anyone has the motive to escape to Rungard with the ruin of the demonic world, the cause of the past is the most powerful candidate, and that's the most troublesome."

"Being without intelligence is easy to give if it's the cause of distortion."

It is Queen Meggiastra and Loggi who agree with me with a serious look.

"Hmm. I can't say anything about natural phenomena, but we'll be able to make a reprieve until the next ritual."

Right. If nature is a factor, it is time to analyze it in the labyrinth nucleus, and we can support it with magic techniques, etc. So... the next policy is settled.

That's how I stayed at the Demon King's Castle for a night, while temporarily opening the Gate of the Demon Realm to contact the earth as well. Having set up a system of cooperation with the Demon King, knowing what happened in the past. And... even if the sins of the past are barren because the descendants are not guilty, I will also tell Queen Aurelia about the insiders of the moon at the time and contact her to ask her for an examination.

That's how it dawns all day... Ashley says she's getting breakfast and getting ready for an investigation departure.

"Good luck, Master Theodore"

"Oh. We're on edge... and we're all good people"

Mallane snorts, too, when I answer to Ashley's words in the atmosphere that he has more temper. Sometimes we know the causes of the past, and we all seem to be even more motivated.

"Mm-hmm. I got more and more in the mood about yesterday."

Sheila gets pneumonia and Illumhilt smiles too. Calcedone and Citria were also "working hard," magic in their fists.

At that rate, we made our journey and were led to the hall by a lady from the VIP room at Demon King's Castle assigned to us, where the face of the Demon King was waiting to know what was going on.

"It's going to be a good day."

"Yes. It's going to be a good day"

In the demonic world there is not a distinction between day and night, so it becomes a greeting like that. Greeting the Queens of Meggiastra, the Bloomwoods came there as well. I don't know, my protective gear's been refreshed. Does the weapon mean it is better to use it? It seems as if it is.

"As for me, it's a form of return to the ancient nest, but Verito and the others are now officially held by His Majesty Meggiastra. Your mission is to escort Lord Theodore, Lord Bolkeor and Lord Enrique."

And, after Bloomwood coughed up small and toned his voice, he laughed and said so as if he was a little hung up. He was officially returned to his position in the kingdom and supplied with equipment.

"Honestly, I'm a little surprised to get such superior armor. Easy to move on lightly."

That's what Verito said when he touched the armor he wore from the top of his surcoat.

"That's more than anything."

Verito laughs and snorts when I answer that. Verito and the others who have sheltered have also come to a solid job, so they seem satisfied as Bloomwood.

"Everyone seems to stand on their arms. Yuya Rogi can't leave Wang Capital... but if Bolkeor and Enrika are going to accompany the investigation, it's better to increase their manpower as well. Arrangements have already been made for the replenishment of water and food. Let's leave without delay."

"Thank you"

If we reinforce our personnel to protect Volkeor and Enrika, we won't have to disperse our power. Looks like they also prepared enough food for the increased personnel.

Queen Meggiastra, on the other hand, is a black dragon, so although her combat abilities are out of the blue, she can't be on the front line any more than it is also a ritual imperative.

And more than the Demon King can fight himself, the soldier is difficult to deal with. If a strong enemy emerges, he will need any strong person to deal with it, and Loggi must remain in the king's capital.

Enrika also seems to be quite skilled... because she is familiar with the domestic circumstances of the Demonic Kingdom and is in a higher position, so when negotiations are needed, she can also be the name of Queen Meggiastra.

Although I have a position and a job as head of the Intelligence Agency, I have men. And... some comms have been given to Queen Meggiastra and the others from us, so we're all set.

However, since the characters used in the comms belong to Rungard, it takes a little work to keep in touch.

It is necessary to take the method of waving a number in the letters of the demonic realm with Rungard numbers and communicating the contents with a combination of numbers and blanks. It's a little tricky to type, but I've already made a correspondence table, and I've done some short text prep exercises to try. I don't have a problem with working together.

"Communicator… it's a wonderful thing"

Even though Enrika was impressed to learn about the comms machine.

Okay. Now let's try to reconnaissance where the floating palace fell. The memory of Morguion makes it easier to search for sunken places.
