Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 955, the inhabitants of the Underworld.

"- Do you have a minute?

and ask everyone to wait a little further away and talk to the deceased who runs the dewstore in the brightest possible voice. Let Yui keep Uroboros for a little while.

The open-air merchant's deceased looks at me with his skeleton face up. Then I opened my mouth with a little while.

"What's up, kid?

The open-air dealer replied like that. Looks like you've decided I'm not that old because of the tone of my voice. You seem to have lowered your guard a little. At least, I don't think he's a living person.

The deceased can be classified about skeletons, zombies, and ghosts, but looking at the look of a type of deceased with vessels in detail, he thought it would probably be okay for me and everyone to do the disguise.

I wonder if you have the impression that for a moment of open-air business earlier... you were looking at a customer or not. Maybe he had a shop somewhere in his lifetime.

"Actually. I made my own figurine, and I thought you didn't buy it."

I dare say it in a more shattered tone than usual, too.

"Uh. Can you show me stuff first?

The open-air merchant nodded as if he was convinced, saying so.

"This and this."

and take the stone flowers and the little bird figurine out of the pocket of the cloth wrapped around you - the chimaira coat that made it look like. The open-air merchant who sees it gets himself out just a little...... says in a percentage serious voice color.

"... ho. This guy is a big deal. Did you say the boy made it himself?

"Yeah. I used to have a chance to learn dirt magic. Is it going to be for sale?

Let's reveal it when it comes to how to make it. It will be seen by the viewer that, like sculpture knives and the like, they were not made with instruments, and the skills acquired by their biological predecessors… Magic, etc. are also known in advance to some of the deceased.

"It will be nothing... this sophisticated will sell you even for a good value. Anyway, the underworld is a killer landscape. If you put this kind of thing down and your mind soothes, can it also help you generate the Ascension Stone?"

"... you're a merchant and you can say that before you negotiate the price?

"It's fine. Even the people who do business, most of the time, want to settle down or feel safe that they have something to do, not that they want to earn anything else. Besides, if I thought I could sell it, I'd be aggressively kind enough to take it in, and it worked out fine in my lifetime."

I see. Doesn't that mean business? But if that's the case, you can probably ask a lot of questions in public discourse.

"That kind of thing, I'm not sure. Still coming over and the sun is shallow... If it doesn't make a lot of sense to earn an ascendant stone, is there a good thing about saving a stone?

"I hear the Plutonites have a good use for it. If I take it to those guys, they'll allow me to live in a house in a calm environment, or redeem me for all sorts of things... but it seems like you don't have to accumulate a lot to redeem it. The market for deals around the city is based largely on that."

I see. A calm environment in a private room would make it possible to generate even more ascendant stones... because it would be difficult to produce stones even if they were too expensive.

If we can secure a private room where we can calm down, I feel like it would be a good base of activity... but that would make contact with the Tower Pluto, so it's hard to get inside.

Or if you get the Ascension Stone in this deal, or if you're interested in the Plutonite, you're likely to know where the stone is. It's also going to get noticed that there are ascendant stones in the nasal hall, so we need to keep this undetectable with cover-up.

"You're a Plutonian... I don't know, because Reis is so powerful with me..."

and beat the cloth stone to shake the topic about underworld sperm and lace.

"Ma... I'm not listening to what they say to us. It looks tough on Leith, but I don't even hear him say he's moved to exercise his powers because of a lot of things, and I don't think you have to worry about that."

"I see."

"So, about this figurine... if you're gonna sell it to me, how about this?

That's what open-air merchants have been presenting...... when it comes to medium sized ascendant stones? Two of them each, four in total, so how about that?

The magnitude of the stone seems to vary depending on the intensity of the thought that sublimated it, but it still seems to have the stronger power.

The open-air merchant valued the figurine highly, so I guess it also deserves it as a price.

"Yeah. That'll help."

"Okay. Then we have a deal. Nevertheless, in our case, life can be managed without a word. The stones aren't used as much as normal gold, but I don't mind if you think four medium sized ones are fine. I want to keep doing business with the kid, and that's the price, too."

and the open-air merchant looks highly appreciative that he likes the figurine a bit overhead and looks at it at different angles... well, this direction seems good as a figurine motif.

"It is. So, can I finally ask you something about the Underworld? I'm going to buy something too."

"Ooh."

and interact with open-air merchants like that. In the meantime, I have gained preliminary knowledge from Durahan's information and prior unattended surveys about the Underworld, but I don't think that's enough general knowledge.

After they understand that they don't have much knowledge of the Underworld, they mix stories about the information they want to hear into a chat.

Shake the conversation about prices in general and about Reyce while talking about sperm.

"- Speaking of Reis, I heard a little while ago about the fact that there were fewer Reis out of the city,"

"Ah. There it is. I'm telling you, it was a help to the underworld. Some people are a little worried about this story because they can't tell me the details because they have a strong mouth when they hear it from the person they know. According to Reyes and the others, we can't talk about any work without darkness."

"Heh... I hope it's not a mess."

"Right. It's best that nothing happens."

and have such a conversation. Even at the time of the drone investigation, that Race was clouding words in his interactions with children. The neighborhood is... or if you bring work to Reis and the others, you are being stopped by the sperm. The deceased also... I can't tell you that Leis and I normally have a conversation and we're not getting along badly.

When Reyes and the others hear the background of the chosen ones, they feel like there are a lot of faces that seem to have a strong sense of responsibility. It seems that no matter what the content, Rayce and the others are rarely called to support each other in the first place... it seems that quite a few things have happened.

But well... then again, it's hard to hear what's going on directly from Reyce, huh? I also have the impression that if this one reveals the circumstances, it will be the last resort...

It can also be suspicious to ask too much about Reis and Pluto. I changed the subject a little and talked to open-air merchants about the difference between life in this world and in the past.

In the land of the dead… Many people reproduce their lifelong work as it is in their present lives, but it seems that there are not many extreme good or bad people, or that meals have different meanings, and are not chosen as a profession or established.

Are those who were involved in music and art popular because they are hungry for entertainment? Where things have changed, the former adventurers focus on martial arts competitions.

The deceased... don't worry about injuries or accidental deaths. It is somewhat convincing that there are many adventurers when it comes to knowing such rough things and not being good or bad.

It follows that the lives of the deceased tolerate sperm as well. Even if you can interfere if you have to, it may be quite a free air for the deceased.

Whatever it is, we've also got the Ascension Stone, which is the currency replacement for the Underworld, and let's just say that we will proceed to hear from the other deceased, based on the information obtained at this rate. I've found that disguises, figurines, etc. work well.
