Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Are you alone? Where'd you come from?

"Mmm...... I've been down the east road...... I'm supposed to be, but I'm so lost. Animals on the way? Demons? They chased me... and I dropped my money... ha"

and go on the spot and answer in a slightly tired tone. The wand that kept the weight was a wooden wand that was saving...... a uroborous disguise.

When the gatekeepers face to face with my reaction, they reach out first and prompt me to stand up.

"Well... that was a disaster. Take your clothes off and show your faces."

The gatekeepers also look a little surprised when they follow the instructions and stand up to support the wand and take off the wiz dressed as a hood.

"They say the color of my hair resembles people who don't like it... so I try to hide it around so I don't get caught up in the commotion"

"I see. Well, certainly...... Maybe a hair color similar to that of His Majesty Selkeft or His Royal Highness Oran."

Prince Oran to King Selkeft, huh? Nodding at the words, the gatekeeper laughs a little when he rushes back on his wiz.

"You're both generous, so I'm sure you'll be fine."

"Is that the one you're okay with dropping more money than that?

"Uh, because the sale was safe. So let's do something about it."

And I open a little bag of leather and show the wooden and stone statues to the gatekeepers. That's a statue that mimics the animals and demons we saw in Savannah.

"This guy, the kid?

"Oh. I made it myself"

"Isn't that amazing? Such a fine eagle."

What the gatekeeper expressed interest in was the statue of an eagle about to fly with its wings spread.

"This guy is good. If I bought it, would it be like today's inn bill?

"That helps, but is it good?

"Oh, I wish I could just do this. How much?"

King Fareed has also told me about his trade and market with Neschfel. The price rises considerably when adding to the fact that it brings dangerous roads, so it would be a bit cheaper to subtract it. The price before being transported from the Bahárzad side is easy to refer to.

When I told him three copper coins, he asked me if it was that cheap.

Well, it's an unnecessary craft treatment.

This kind of stuff is exquisite, artistic, and the price goes up... but around there, I'm not sure I'm anything else when people say how artistic it is, so I can't sell it to boulders for the price as a work of art.

Besides, if producers sell it straight, they don't pinch intermediaries like wholesale or retail. It would make sense that you could cheap.

"I'm glad you're telling me it's worth more than the price. But it's cheaper if you buy it from the person who made it."

"I see."

and interact with the gatekeeper with a smile and sell the eagle statue with three copper coins. If that's the case, me and the other gatekeeper came and bought me a statue of a lion with big fangs. These are also three copper coins.

"Thank you. That'll help."

When I say, the gatekeepers say, "Good luck" and "Then I'm sure I'll sell it" and smile and respond.

I even asked a few questions because they are the gatekeepers who will be intimate with me.

The gatekeepers told me that I could expand the store as an outdoor store, and that I had no problem selling into a store that seemed to handle this kind of stuff.

I also got six pieces of copper coins... so I can shop at the store and gather information instead of selling them. That's how we could wave each other into the city.

"You were kind."

"Right. I got all kinds of useful information just for the current story, and I'm thankful I got the currency"

Grace was smiling over the crystal plate at the bridge. I agree with that word.

Later...... right. Let's say we find an inn and stay overnight. I would like to gather information while gathering things and move in such a direction as to give the gatekeepers peace of mind by saying that I will return from the city in a full circle.

Plus, there are things you can do while staying at the inn. Once we have gathered the information and have decided on future policies, we will continue to consult and work on you during the night.

Okay. I let you in the city first.

The army is stationed to replenish, but there is no disturbing air that the general public and pedestrians are also walking around normally, and they are bickering everywhere.

Since I feel vibrant and the soldiers are accepted... can you see that the military is well controlled and the rulers admired?

If you actually walk through the city, well, this is what the rulers usually do from the air. The spirits looked bright, and I could see Silf waving and flying happily when his gaze matched.

The atmosphere in the city is good. It's exotic and information-gathering, but it's fun.

Well... for now, we are moving with some implicit understanding of the outdoor shop, but if you ask the soldiers at the scene, you will understand.

The gatekeepers were kind enough to ask a lot of questions, but "why are there so many soldiers?" It was unnatural to ask questions after seeing what was going on in the city. It would be good about that in order not to be suspicious on that spot.

That's how I decided to walk around the city for a while, see the streets lined with open-air, view the store, and then leave the open-air store. Talk to the soldiers. Make a point.

Ask the soldier a question beside asking the soldiers on patrol about where to leave the outdoor shop and so on, oddly enough, there are many soldiers.

"Oh, there are rumors that there might be something dangerous in the mountains of Mount Jalev."

"I'm talking about whether the patriarch of the Duobelis brought something in. Ever since the congregation was captured in this city, there's been a lot of talk and anxiety."

"Besides, there are rumors that there may be hidden treasures of the Order... that His Majesty Serkeft has embarked on a settlement with a ban on entering the mountains."

I see. It's been a pretty big rumor, and you're on your way to a resolution, he said.

As far as we are concerned, we have speculated as to whether anyone connected to the Order, or who followed the Patriarch's footsteps, has been captured, but it seems that the area was hit.

That's how the popular Prince Oran was dispatched to solve the situation... the anxiety turned and the opposite seems to be the busy state of the city.

But it was a rumor...... if the denominationalists were being held captive, they would be grasping it in an investigation to the point where the Patriarch actually said on a regular basis that he was going out to the south and going to Mount Jalev.

As a king, I supposedly move the troops after quoting them to the point where they say, "I guess there's something tangled up in the patriarch," because they won't move the large troops this far about mere rumors.

If Gardinis had been alive in the first place, the churchmen wouldn't have followed footsteps, and it wouldn't have been such a commotion.

But, well, you do. If the history leading up to discovery is so clear, there seems to be no back in the history itself. The King and the Prince have found out that he is a man of hope, and even this one can set a policy and move forward.

When I hear so many stories about it, I don't feel that I can leave anything more like a spark.

I have a promise to Gardinis. I want to move to ensure that it can be recovered properly, after having carefully monitored and managed it.

So - let's just say we keep the dewstore open to corroborate what we're talking about, while we discuss the operation. If we make a few orbital modifications from the operation originally envisaged, we should be able to move it to execution without any problems.
