Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

Start west of Vinesdora, the king's capital. We head towards the border to the west, where we take Bartolomeus down to the fortress and head to the assembly point.

"The western fortress was once built after the fall of Bellion Dora to counter pursuits and demonic raids from the west of the demons. It seems that the demons stayed in Bellion Dora for a while, but they were absent at some point."

"Perhaps he was trying to unseal the Alliance Lord."

Seeing as it wasn't easy, I temporarily abandoned it. "

Said as Claudia and Stephania devised in the wake of the words of Bartolomeus.

It would have been difficult to unseal that seal linked to the labyrinth side without knowing the structure of the seal. It seems that the demons also made a decision to withdraw when Bellion Dora's forces fled east and when they put aside time to regain their position. Even though the demon side won, it was causing damage, so there may be.

In the end, the seal of the Alliance Lord was lost, and there was no relocation to land where the environment was harsh. There also seems to be a background in which the demons' temper traits, etc. have been misrepresented.

Regardless, the fortress was made quite robust due to concerns about the spread of demonic damage caused by desertion and devastation on the northwest side, which could not be reintegrated as the Kingdom of Silvatoria, the backward step of Belliondola, and anxiety that the demon would attack again from the northwest side.

"The West has few pioneering sites, but the fortress itself is quite large, so something like a little market is formed inside."

"You've heard a lot about military installations developing into urban areas."

Answer that to Bartolomeus.

The eastern side of the fortress is also supposed to accommodate evacuees from the outside, so you're building a zoning plan that envisages liberation from the outset?

They use it that way because it's normal time now.

If we have enough armaments, it will be a safe place for people to gather, and if we have more people, we need supplies. That's how merchants get on their feet because they sell things... well, those cycles come into being.

It is often for these reasons that urban areas are formed, but it seems that they maintain a fortress only for the western part of Sylvatria.

That's how the Sirius travels west into the snowscape - eventually you'll see it. In the middle of the snowfield, I could see a fortress with a star-shaped outer wall. Tower at the star-shaped protruding end. The central part is heavily built, but it's built lower than the tower at the tip.

As for the terrain around the fortress… spacious terrain that makes it easy to deploy soldiers. Is there such a thing as being able to fight the demons in numbers? There is no doubt that the range of correspondence will increase.

Coniferous forests around the flatlands. Mountain areas stretch further west. They say demons come out of these woods and mountainous areas from time to time. Beyond that mountain, it becomes the territory of the former kingdom of Belliondola.

"Characteristically shaped, you're here, Zeberta"

"Yes. Interesting, I feel, Spica"

It is Spica and Zeberta, who look at the shape of the fortress and interact between the airships.

"You're a flying devil's measure about that shape. So where you're attacking, you can attack intensively from other protruding ends. Instead, the outer walls are a little lower."

Bartolomeus answered my question.

I see...... Even in Japan, the Five Ridges must have had similar design ideas. I guess the central part also envisages an attack from the sky.

"By daring to build the central part lower than the tower, even if one tower at the tip falls, it is easier to provide support from the other towers to the central part."

"You're a boulder. If one tower falls, its defense capabilities will not fall. Well, I've never been attacked from the sky since the fortress was built… it's just an assumption."

To my guess, Bartolomeus gives a happy grin.

"Star-shaped means something magically."

"It also leads to the strengthening of ties, etc."

Rosemary said, your grandfather was nodding. I see. So is the magical defensive side.

Neither ship is camouflaged. Slightly slowing down and moving on. There is also a circulation on the fortress side, so it is not a problem to stay close.

I saw the flag waving from the tower facing this way as I approached it somewhat. So you're showing that we're aware of it and welcome it from the fortress. These bases sometimes have dignitaries and allies coming from the sky aboard dragon cages, flying dragons, and phantom beasts, so the response in such cases is well defined.

The fortress side also opened the gates... and found the knights showing up to pick us up. Slowly unloading the airship in front of the pick-up knights while slowing down speed and altitude.

The airship on the Silvatorian side is currently operated by Valor. To match the movements of the two airships.

That's why we arrived at the fortress. When we all move to the deck, unload the tarap and get off the ship, the knights greet us with humility.

"We've been waiting for your arrival."

"Thank you. I feel comfortable welcoming you before you go on such an important mission."

In reply to the knights who have greeted me, I will introduce you to the first face to face. The first thing we should do at the fortress... is position the hider and the crystal plate to allow communication during the operation. Then we need to deepen mutual understanding face-to-face with those in the fortress.

That's why I ask you to guide me a little inside the fortress with Bartolomeus and the knights.

As we were talking about on the move, a little market-like compartment was built inside the center of the fortress. It is indoors because it assumes an attack from the air, but there are pedestrians and some are coming to buy it out of the pioneering village on the east side.

Part of the fortress can be freed because this is where demons and demons are assumed. People - they are in a good location without thinking about fighting foreign countries, and the decision seems to be that there are few problems even through people inside.

"Because there are no more problems where we know somewhat more about the internal structure than protecting it with the structure of the junction and the building. I built the premise of liberation from the beginning."

"It's good to be lively inside. I don't hate the quality rigid atmosphere."

Tesdiros nods with his hands on his chin when his grandfather gives an explanation.

"Pfft. I didn't know the first demon man to enter the fortress was on my side and would like this place. It's something the world doesn't understand."

Bartolomeus laughs delightfully at the words of Tesdiros like that. The knights who picked me up also seemed intrigued.

Our story with Tesdiros is that Bartolomeus is responsible for communicating it to them as well.

"We have heard about Lord Theodore's promises."

"I hope there will be no mercy and protection of the Moon Goddess on Lord Boundary's journey."

The knights said that and supported me. Sometimes it's because they're Bartolomeus' men, but they also seem to agree with our policies and our mindset.

First of all... I wonder if those who were the main personnel of the fortress would be comfortable with these reactions with regard to cooperation, etc. Therefore, arrange a seeker and a crystal plate in the conference room so that you can also communicate with the fortress side at the fold of the assembly.

That's why we're finally moving toward the Bellion Dora assembly.
