Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Is this the underground passage leading to the cavernous compartment...... You're in a position to be seen from the base to make it easier to monitor. The position of the rock and the height of the line of sight when viewed from the base's watchtower are calculated - so that no blind spots such as rock shade appear to be created.

Contrary to the rocks made to look like natural stones, the interior of the underground passage is well maintained. There was a slope slowly descending, and the passage stretched straight back everywhere.

Behind the cave is a place that was used as a base for the lower level in the past… it will be a facility to maintain the seal after the disturbance, and now the lower level base will be a place that was maintained after the transfer of functions. That's why a base is being created considering the invasion of the black monsters.

"This is - Your Majesty...! Have you woken up!

"Hmm. It's dauntless"

Queen Bell responds to the angels who greet her. Looks like they have liaison and surveillance personnel in the corridor as well.

It is more spacious than the corridor I used when I arrived at the base. I wonder if we can get some spacing between each other, even if we line up and move on. Because we can also afford space to wield weapons...... fighting inside won't be a problem either.

That's why we're queuing up again to continue down the underground aisle.

"Mr. Plunerius can use the defensive field, and he has a lot of trust from the Plutonians, so why don't you keep one of the wide-area magic props?

"If it's okay with me"

Prunerius responds to my words.

"Of course. Mr. Prunerius was originally in charge of the conservation mission. We need contract magic, so when we get to the frontline base at the end of the aisle, let's hand over the magic props again."

"Right. It seems like it would be a good idea to think about it in a place where everyone is organized when we go in."

Prunerius nods. As for the other candidates, I wonder if the Divounces are in command at the forward base ahead.

There is a facility for surveillance through the underground corridor, from where further openings are made, there are caves that lead to contraindications. Right now, the Divounds say they're building a front-line base in front of the cave, infiltrating Ioan, and searching for the last remaining missing person.

Queen Bell, who must be protected, must be at the center of the unit, so as a certainty... If you hand over a wide-area countermeasure magic tool to organize, it would be a good idea to rendezvous with the Divounces and see everyone's suitability, etc. before entering.

Besides - I haven't even seen the golem made in the upper level yet... or the Ioan. It will also change who it is good to give a wide area type depending on how it operates and the characteristics of the Ioan.

"I'll give you Zevion and Luceriage's magic props."

"Was there a contract magic usage condition for magic props?"

"Considering we're gonna fight shoulder to shoulder after shoulder, I think it would be nice to have a contract magic oath in front of all of us."

Don't let that happen. Sometimes it's better to be able to act alone if you think about using your abilities when it comes to both of them.

Zevion's flames, of course, but Luceriage also has a trump card that sweeps away a wide range of them with a giant sword. Well, in the case of Luceriage, precision attacks are possible, so that's not the case in some circumstances.

"With that said...... after demonization was solved, did there change in awakening abilities?

Ask the Zevions as they go down the aisle because this is the first instance of de-motivation of face-to-face awakened.

"Quite. First of all, because the magic characteristics are no longer temperamental, it is not possible to attenuate and penetrate the magic of the target, and because there is no deformation of the body, it is also difficult to fight a battle left to the stubbornness of the body. Instead, it's easier to fight in groups without using a full blow because you can now choose the target of the fever."

I see...... That's also quite a change. Does the nature of the heat change slightly… because the curse has been broken, the properties of the awakening ability have become moderate?

"Although it is true that there is no longer any strength derived from the traits of temper or the bottom-up of physical abilities during transformation... it is not that we are simply weaker than before because we also need to figure out how to fight for it. In that regard, your way of fighting was very helpful"

"Oh. You have that. It made me think a lot about how to move and use the technique."

Lynette agrees with Luceriage's words.

"Right. The fight against Theodore was certainly a shock. From that battle... they're letting me learn a lot"

And, Zevion. The Tesdiros and the others were also listening to such exchanges with interest. Yui also... snorts and snorts.

Sure...... don't feel like Lynette, Zevion or Luceriage are losing any more clearance in standing and behaving than they were before. You mean you're drilling with all kinds of eyes on the technical side?

"I also wondered if there was any point in working out now because the Underworld is peaceful. Do you know how much fun it was to build drills in retrospect of that battle?"

"I didn't think it would help in these situations. Something that cannot be fought without understanding changes in physical abilities in boulders."

Lynette and the others said it that way and snorted.

"Maybe we can all be close to air combat gear, or something?

"I remembered if it was a way to scaffold the shield and accelerate it with levitation. I can continue to use the flying technique, but if I mix it up, I can make it wide for movement, so it looks interesting."

It is Zevion, who laughs with such words.

"Hehe. Looks like Lord Theodore has had a lot of influence. Being able to talk to the people you were related to... sounds like fun."

Prunerius narrows his eyes and laughs.

"I heard that Master Prunerius is quite an ancient shrine...... from what country are you from?

"This is a country that dates back to a time before the people of El Bellure and the people of the Moon."

When Hervorte asks, Prunellius answers. Then... will it be before Claudia?

"Prunerius came to the Underworld - just when there was a disturbance involving your father. Since those days, they've always supported my concubines."

"No one in this world remembers me... but I can still remain in the Underworld... because I receive trust from the Plutonites. Even I want to live up to that trust."

Are you a god trusted by the Plutonites in the Underworld? Origins are different from spirits, but like Queen Bell, I wonder if she is close to the Underworld God. I'm also convinced of why I'm involved in the law of the Underworld as an ex-human.

Take underground passages while talking and developing mutual understanding to the extent that vigilance does not diminish. The descent gradient also ended, and it seems to be the way to go horizontally.

At the same time - I notice signs of magic have changed. A mighty demon or something... like being all the way over there.

"I feel very strong magic......!

Riveira says with a serious look. I guess the Conservation Corps didn't feel this kind of magic when they were on their previous assignment either. He looked rather surprised.

If so, does this… not result from environmental magic, but from the presence of those who lurk ahead?

The quality is also slightly different from the magic of the underworld sperm - probably because something like survival instincts and attack impulses are fused by contact accidents with the vortex of the roots.

I guess that's why I feel like a mighty demon......

Oh. Right. It resembles the last Guardian who was united with Cortiera.

"... I didn't expect to get any signs around here. You know, things seem to be getting a lot worse."

"But still, I thought the seal was alive."

"Uhm."

Queen Bell and Prunerius nod at each other saying so.

Until now there was a sealed kingdom of sleep, and there was nothing I could do to solve it because neither Queen Bell, nor Plunelius, nor Rivera could move... but if I made it, I think I could handle things.
