Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside, 947. Prayer for the departed.

Apronos, the capital of the dead - was quite busy when he walked away from the mourning gate.

It does seem that the deceased are mimicking their lifetime. The stone houses stand, and the deceased cross the street. Some exchange greetings, others just don't move standing up. And those who whine about bumping into themselves.

Other races - mixed with elves, beasts, and friendly demonic deceased... are just like the land of the dead. Don't let bone dogs, zombie cats, and other demons wander around.

"As it is good to have animals... where will the dangerous demonic deceased go?

Durahan tells me when Elena tilts her neck.

"Being unreasonable from your lifetime - is not a threat in the Underworld. It is equivalent to activity as life, but therefore it is free of the ferocity of life. Most of the time they are banished to the wilderness... and fade away as they are. It would still be a race with strong reason that would be difficult to handle for the Underworld '

... I see. Behavioral principles rooted in physical desire and instinct. Without desire from the flesh on one side.

Considering that evil spirits with strong grudges are also powerful, the area is convincing. Even if it was a fierce demon, on the contrary, as a spiritual body… there is nothing left, rather than strong weakness, should I say?

Because of reason, you are confused by the difference in your senses from your lifetime, or saddened by your own circumstances. Is it true that the more powerful the spirit body is, the stronger the person with strong emotions?

As Souths proceeded, he went out to the square - where Rampas, who led several of the deceased, was gesturing and giving some lectures.

"So - pray for the best, or silent prayer before the grave. That kind of thing will help you."

And he seems to be conveying the same information to the deceased as he heard from Durahan and the others.

"You're relatively plausible newcomers. Tomorrow, the underworld will tell you how to spend your time in the Underworld."

Do you mean the new arrivals who have recovered from the mourning gates?

"As far as we're concerned, we want you to live quietly here. You can do something, you don't have to do anything. I'm not hungry, and I can't freeze. But I suggest you sort out the feelings, the hard feelings, the sadness, the rest of your heart."

That said, Lampath takes out something like a green glowing gem.

"That, what?

When one of the deceased asks in a gruesome, obsessive tone, Rampas answers quietly.

"This is Ascension Stone. When you sort out one of your lifelong obsessions and the rest of your hearts, it's something we can create from the thoughts we elevate. For you, the very act of producing this stone leads to the refinement of the nucleus of the soul, and the next raw and blessed force may dwell. It's also valuable for us to use... so we can use it like currency."

Durahan supplemented me when I watched such an exchange.

The Ascension Stone can draw strength if it is a sperm, or it seems that the refined soul will be reborn as a single grain of Shizuku, even if it returns to the original vortex.

"You can wish your loved ones happiness in this world. If those feelings are true, they've been sublimated from the beginning, and you can build a lot of stones without feeling faded."

"... oh -"

To Rampas' words, the deceased raised their voices like they were touched, hands in hand. Family or friends? He was showing prayerful manoeuvres for his loved ones. Rampas nods quietly when he sees how it is.

... Soul refinement? I see. It's good for each other, or it's a mechanism that allows the underworld itself to inflict punishment for sin or to wait quietly for the next raw.

"Sure...... if I were born again, I'd lose my memory. It depends on your thoughts whether you see it as worthwhile to sublimate your thoughts or refine your soul... there has been this place for a long time. The soul comes to this place many times and travels again. That's why we'll tell you about it as many times as we can."

Both when he was alive and after he died. It won't be in vain to stack your strides so hard, he said.

"It'll be easier on your feelings, and there's no harm in doing it, maybe. The truth is... I want to help the kids who couldn't get back on their feet."

That said, Rampas gave him a slightly lonely look. The words and expressions of such a lampus make you feel kind. Rivera had also quietly closed her eyes so that she could feel something in that word that she would tell her over and over again. Even if you have lost your memory, it doesn't change that you are a midget who watches over a person's soul. I guess there is something to think of in the current language and in the way of the land of the dead.

It seems that heaven, which can go with good deeds in its lifetime, and hell, which is punished by evil deeds, is another situation or a different rule, but at least in this hierarchy - in the land of the dead.

The deceased in the land of the dead are ordinary people who have no good or bad deeds or evil deeds… so there are a certain number of people who cannot stand the fact of death or their own thoughts they have.

Those spirits. Untrained, resentful souls wandering the earth before they came to the underworld tend, as we saw earlier on the street corner, to just stand up or whine to themselves.

The main point necessary for the establishment of Reis - the fact that we had no choice and a case with a great deal of work together seems to be a rarity in the middle.

On the other hand, I think that working for the Underworld is connected to the refinement of the soul, so it doesn't seem like it's simply a task.

Anyway, it seems that a deceased who can no longer recover does not mimic his life or strive to refine his soul... he just waits for his soul to bleach and be reborn.

"Ah, the mortals are more likely to attack each other if they sense the living, even if the dead make love to each other."

"Well... if that's the case, I might just be a living person and envy, hate, or something."

Like Rampas said, I want my mind to rest at all... I think so.

Then across the monitor, "The Deceased Who Couldn't Get Back On Their Way," he said, leaking his voice and looking up into the sky. Oh, even in this way, does prayer arrive?

"Is that... perceived by the admin, is it?

'No...... I don't think there's a problem. These thoughts are considered to be honorable, and there is no interference, and there is no prayer on a wide scale. "

That's what Durahan will undertake. Everyone who heard that also nodded, "Well then," he closed his eyes and prayed silently. I wish them luck again, too.

Lampath also said across the crystal plate monitor, "This is how some kind people give their thoughts to the dead sometimes. Are you a cleric or a witch?," he smiled gladly as he saw the forgetful deceased healing on a wide scale.

I kept praying silently for a while, but eventually I look up again with one person.

"Lord Theodore and all of you are kind people."

"Yeah, yeah."

Riveira gives a delightful look, and Yui and Mallane snort all together.

"Well, that's what I hear."

And I answer with a small, bitter smile. These stories... right. It might be a good idea to tell everyone in the Temple of the Moon.

"- If we collate the information just now, we can tell to some extent if it is dangerous when the living person comes close and stimulates it"

"Conversely... can a sociable deceased even talk to a living person"

As Sheila said, Claudia was also nodding with her eyes closed. I might have that.

"We don't really want to fight each other, so it's important to identify the area. If it's someone you can interact with, I wonder if you can gather information directly. Well... even if we can have a conversation, the information that the living are infiltrating the Underworld is somewhere we want to lay low."

I want to keep this a secret until I can at least grasp something about the incidents and backgrounds that took place in the Underworld.

Travel around the city paying attention to whether the interlocutors and the deceased have said something like that.

At the same time as collecting information... there's one more thing to check.

"Is there somewhere in the city where you can hide yourself from people and the underworld?

Asking Durahan that seemed to conceive for a little while, but eventually he nodded.

"Near the Mourning Gate, there is an underground barnacle hall that houses the bones collected in the Bone Tsuka. A narrower old compartment would also hide itself. It may seem somewhat gloomy to everyone, but there is no danger. '

The story is that Bonetsuka is gathered near the Mourning Gate for reasons such as waiting for the expansion of the Nagumo Hall, or to make it easier for new arrivals to understand that this place is the underworld.

If it's an old compartment, there are times when the deceased and the sperm can get to their feet.

Is Durahan a boulder? I have all kinds of good information. Durahan himself said he only had information near the entrance because it was only a role to guide him to the Underworld, but if it was limited to the country of the dead, it would be enough information.

"If it's safe and invisible, it's enough. I'm not going to put any more orders on that."

With regard to the bones left behind by the bleaching of the soul, the loose shell of the semispiritual body, and that's what he said.

If it's an authentic shell with no soul or nothing there, it's also unrelated to being evil spirits or curses or something like that.

When he answered that, Durahan nodded 'Then let me show you around' as he moved his neck wide.

So moving in a direction where there is a mourning gate while gathering information.

I'm not moving right away, but I want to check the location to see if it's possible to locate it, see if it's a good idea if we can move forward with the investigation on the ground, etc., while gathering information in Souths. It would also be easier to escape if detailed maps were made.

"I think it's all right, but let's also check the environmental magic inside the nakedo"

"Just in case,"

Grace snorts at my words.

From Durahan's mouth and information obtained so far, it seems okay, but for once.
