Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Outside 1174. Towards a submarine cave.

As we head west, the state of the sea changes slightly as well. I guess the ocean is getting deeper away from land. We will drop the altitude of the airship and let the bottom of the ship touch the sea surface to see how it is underwater as well.

Large land - slightly away from Istania, so it has less nutrients, more transparency, but less life response. The seabed remains at some depth and seems to be followed by a bite of rock.

Occasionally, there are places near the top that are flying out into the sea. Traces of former volcanic activity, I wonder.

"If you look at the bottom of the ocean from the top, you feel like you're about to get sucked in"

Donna says when she sees the sight.

"Right. Some places are deeper than the height of the mountains and you literally say you can't bottom-up"

Answering, King Gideon, along with Donna, also expresses an interest in "ho ho ho".

"I'm not that familiar with the deep sea either..."

That's right. I'll tell you what I know about the deep sea.

"As you dive deep, the sunlight gradually weakens and hardly reaches you. It depends on the transparency of the sea water, but I was wondering if you could consider the deep part to be dark."

"Right. Because we also want to live within some light. The Deep Fish Nation - it seems like it's a deeper place to live than ours..."

And Weltes answers my words. Right. Although he seems to prefer the relatively shallow sea when it comes to the people of Grantios and the Nereids. The footage we are seeing now is foreseen by the magic of dark vision, and is due to the high degree of transparency.

"There are other deep seas in harsh environments inside...... as you dive deeper you will not be able to ignore the weight of the water. It's called water pressure, and the deeper it is, the stronger it takes from the surroundings."

By analogy, when a discharge port is provided at the top and bottom of a barrel filled with water, the lower the weight of the water itself gives the same momentum to the water. Making a model out of dirt magic and explaining it, Humph and Donna were nodding. Beyond the monitor, Teal snorts too.

Might as well compare the moisture molecules to sand. The deeper the bottom, the more the sand pushes against each other… the more it is thrown into it, the more it is pushed from its surroundings, the more it is crushed if it is not in a tolerable structure.

'Even we, the people of the sea, cannot ignore this. You can deal with it with the ritual… if you can dive deeper everywhere, the normal ritual alone will make it harder'

And Rovisa said. Right. In countries facing the sea, people on land also tend to possess the technique of hydraulic control, and measures may be integrated into underwater breathing techniques, vesicular entanglement techniques, etc. Istania does not seem to be the exception in that area... but the people of the sea would be more specialized in that regard.

"The creatures that live there in these deep waters also adapt to that kind of harsh environment, so... Strange looking fish must have some reason to survive."

"Some fish have little vision when they go deep."

And, Eckels explains it supplementally.

"More often than not, it would be advantageous to develop the ability to sense smell and vibration than vision. So the offspring are optimized by generations of people who are more likely to survive according to their environment."

Don't use energy to maintain some kind of organ. If you get that and this and the ability, it will be more food - if you're a demon, you have to ensure you're magical. It's inefficient.

Naturally, there is little food in the deep sea, which is scarce in the density of life, so it is difficult to survive unless useless organs, abilities are cut off and more efficient and optimized.

Sometimes the outer ocean is scarce in nutrition and bait, but the currents are connected like streets... and creatures come from the waters away from it on board and settle in when the environment is right. It is often the case that similar creatures live in remote waters.

There seems to be an underwater cave, a place with water currents, a strange fish somewhere, maybe from another sea area.

Everyone was nodding with a serious look when I gave those explanations.

In any case, in our case, we have the protection of the four Spirit Kings. First, it is free from water pressure and other problems being explored. It won't be a big problem around here when it comes to this exploration.

"First of all, we can take measures against water pressure, etc., so I was wondering if it would be okay to feel safe there."

"Hehe. Relieved."

And, Donna gives a bright smile.

That's how we go about talking and eventually we arrive in the desired waters. Changes were also seen in the state of the seabed. Like a chopped cliff...... I could see a place going deep at once, on the lower monitor.

If we look more at the whole thing, we can see that it has a large crack-like terrain stretched north and south. The distance to the opposite shore is quite open, and although it does not seem to cut as deep as what is called a trench. Well, that's a valley terrain to say a lot.

"This is the area where you want to be."

"Right. An underwater cave was formed on the shoreline of the valley... and Waldom left a seal on one of them."

Answer King Gideon.

The arrival of the intended waters will mean that we will prepare ourselves from here and actually move on to exploration.

Teal speaks up across the monitor. I want to participate.

As for the teal, we were in Forestania on the road because of the time spent with each other - Magia Penguin, but she said she wanted to rendezvous when she got to her destination because she was headed to the sea.

So let's use the equipment and magic props to summon to the side of the Sirius.

I'm going to the barn, and I'm summoning Teal first. Expanding the magic circle with the magic props given the attributes of Mallane, the magic formations depicted on the floor also shine and Teal appears within the Sirius, raising his voice with joy. According to the magic props in the translation, this will help.

"Thanks, Teal"

When I say that, Teal snorts too. So back to the bridge with Teal.

"This is Magia Penguin Teal."

Introducing King Gideon and the others, Teal was also greeting him by moving his neck vertically.

"This is polite. It's Gideon-Istania."

"I say Donna. Nice to meet you."

King Gideon, Donna, Wesley and the Knight Commander were also smiling and shaking hands with Teal's flippers. To such a sight, Elena and Mallane were also smiling across the monitor for a little soothing air.

Well. Teal also summoned and welcomed him, and the expedition packs the necessary baggage and moves to the airship on the Grantios side.

"Then so are the Alpha, the Apirasia, and the Tears. Thank you for the rest. I'll keep the relay footage connected, so I'll keep you in touch."

With that said, the Alphas nodded. Once the Sirius returns to the midpoint, he asks you to turn to the backup.

"Take care, then. We pray for the success of the operation."

"Thank you"

Deck to deck. Enter the airship on the Grantios side and break up once with the Kings of Gideon.

Now... let's go fulfill our promise to Waldom. We need to get in the mood and come to the operation so we can all go home unharmed.
