Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"- The aristocracy of the Kingdom of Istania and the Earl of Sirn are... somewhat distant, yet blood-born. It gets a lot farther to say as a relatives, but Father - you had the opportunity to get acquainted with the nobility of the Kingdom of Istania at the fold of the visit of the previous Baron Siln to Termwilds, from which the story swelled and led to my study abroad."

Elliot, who has come to Forestania, tells us about the relationship between the Count Sirn family and the Kingdom of Istania.

The Kingdom of Istania is a small country floating in the southwestern sea from the Kingdom of Sylvatria. Even though the latitude is higher when it comes to the southwest… even if the Arctic is not as far north as the nearby kingdoms of Sylvatria and Einface, there is an image of severe winter cold.

The Marquis Gilbolt territory in southern Sylvatria is also quite cold in winter. Since this is the middle of winter, I wonder if Istania is also a Northern-looking outfit.

"Istania looks... pretty cold this time of year. Thanks to the protection, you don't have to worry about the cold."

"Right. Winters in that country are tough inside."

And Elliot nods. Then go on and open your mouth.

"After my memory came back, I was moving as a Knights of the Demons, and then I was moving about the territory, so I sent you a letter, but I'm glad that you have the opportunity to go to Istania. I was wondering if I could go and say hello to my acquaintance while I was studying abroad, or if it would be easier to talk with that handout."

That's what Elliot says. She gives a gentle grin.

"I see. That helps."

It makes it easier to talk, even if someone you know will accompany you and follow the crossing. Especially...... Elliot is a thankful story because I think he is personable and easy to trust.

Sometimes Istania is close to Sylvatria, and it seems that it is a country that has developed quite a bit about magical relations due to its influence. Elliot was highly magical, so he said it was a good country as a place to study, including around there.

"Well, let's make sure we can relay between the Sirius and the Earl of Ortland while we're accompanying him."

"Oh. That helps."

Ortland is Elliot's family name as Count. It is the place where Stefania originally kept it as a royal family and is also an important area that comes to Silvatria. I have good relations with Silvatoria, so I have few concerns, but it would be reassuring to be in touch with the territory, both as Elliot and on the go.

Then... we'll talk about Camilla while she's away. It might be easier for you to spend time with everyone in Forestania than waiting for Elliot to return in the territory.

"You're welcome even to me. In Forestania, it's busy because we're all here, and Rosetta and Lucille are coming to see us."

Sometimes Elliot is also in good shape with circulating smell, and Camilla is in good health. There were so many opportunities to come to Forestania that I would feel stressed in an unfamiliar environment.

"I'm glad my Camilla sister-in-law stays too......!

"Hehe. Thank you, Master Ashley. So... thank you for your patience while Elliot is out"

Ashley smiles at my words, and Camilla responds calmly to them. Everyone broke their expressions on such exchanges... and that's how the story of Elliot's absence came together.

"As for Gardinis' lair, it's the exact opposite direction."

Albert tilts the teacup, takes a breath and then asks.

"Right. Because it will be in the South, and the time to release the seal will be a little further... I wonder if we need to go and keep an eye on the surveillance as a first response"

Not just Gardinis, but the facades of the cell are the meeting place, the safe house, the sealed place, etc... He told me the exact place, so even this one doesn't have that much difficulty for each place.

It's the South... because it's still Gardinis. The South was also at the centre of the Duobelis Church's activities, so they probably created a safe house within easy reach of their actions.

However... this safe house is completely out of the realm of power of the Bahárzad kingdom.

We will move further south from the desert zone. Mountain areas close to the equator, so... Well, it's easy to tell as a place, but when the petrification trap is activated because it's a place that's going to be a water source around here, it's going to have a lot of unexpected effects.

According to Gardinis, there is no risk that the trap will accidentally malfunction due to wildlife, demonic activities, natural disasters, etc., because he said it would be fine if he didn't know about it and try to expose it by irregular means. There's also a magical blockade, so there's no way we can break in without malice.

It's also a way of applying contract magic... to avoid accidental bombings, assuming that's what's going on. I feel troubled because it is difficult to make a breakthrough with force moves, but I wonder if it is reassuring that Gardinis' high level of magic technology is combined to make it difficult to accidentally explode.

Once again, Grace and the others, Elliot and Albert, will also share the situation around here, using stargazers and models to explain it along with geographic and political relationships.

"It's just... they don't have that strong a link, even if they do business with the Kingdom of Bahárzad with regard to this area. I wonder if it's hard to expect alliance support or influence."

I don't want to spread information about Gardinis' legacy, and King Fareed's story about the mountainous areas in the matter suggests that... he's out of the influence of the local country and his clan.

"There's no way they're gonna make a safe house for the rest of us to stop by."

Nod as Osgrave was convinced. I guess this neighborhood is an understandable part of it as Osgrave, who was making a hiding place.

"When it comes to safe houses, we put our eyes on surveillance through covert operations, and when the time comes, we don't seem to have a problem with it in the form of retrieval."

"Right. Let's just deal with surveillance early."

I agree with Rosemary's view.

"Although the meeting place of each of the demons' clans is quite extensive, there doesn't seem to be any place in the Alliance that we can't handle."

Well, basically I'm thinking of a way to move on the Sirius and set it up and go around with a secret field wrapped around it, so I get permission to act, in the form of...

"The Allies agree with us on reconciliation and coexistence with the demons, and they agree with us on interference in the meeting place."

Stefania says. I contacted him about this neighborhood in asking him to examine the record of the battle with the demons, but he also agrees with the faces of the nations.

Even if you look at it from a dry perspective as a trader, if you can solve demon problems in the future without bleeding, you've never gone beyond that.

Therefore, after compiling the information on each cell group, we will also discuss it with Albert and work out a plan for what kind of magic equipment will be needed and which procedure to proceed.

First, place a watchman in Gardinis' lair. Next, a promise to Waldom. After that, will we arrange monuments to various locations and perform rituals?

When the time comes to collect Gardinis' artifacts, it may be that they will go back and forth depending on progress.

"As far as I'm concerned, I guess it's best to create a magic tool that allows the watchman to expand his boundaries."

"I wonder if that will be the case in order"

Albert nodded with a smile in my response and continued his words in a pungent manner.

"Theo, I'm glad to help you with your work. It's for the sake of peace in the future, so it's temperamental."

The faces of the workshop were also smiling and nodding at Albert's words like that. Yeah. Even for me... I want to live up to that expectation. I have also made promises to the Vallos and the facades of the cell, and I just want to get in the mood about these.
