Episode 64: The Magic Formation of the Cloud Sea

Ilkite Labyrinth Basement, 41st Floor.

The place traveled in the Transition Magic Formation is on the ground of a gotten rock skin, peering down from the cliff, you can see the clouds. Apparently, it's quite high.

It's higher than our labyrinth.

"Because the hierarchy used is different at all"

Our labyrinth connects five tiers.

In contrast, Illukite's labyrinth connected ten tiers.

It was only natural for it to be higher if it could be used twice as wide.

"We have tactical information around here, so we'll check again"

If you're just going downstairs, it's quick to travel down a mountain path along a cliff.

But mountain roads along the cliffs are also dangerous places to be sniped off by demons who can fly through the sky.

Mountain roads built on the inside of another mountain need to be bypassed many times to allow them to proceed relatively safely, albeit over time, and to obtain nuts and medicinal herbs that can only be obtained in the mountains.

For this reason, adventurers choose the latter path in order to avoid encountering dragons.

"So you're going to go along the cliff."

We rush ahead. It's the cliffside road we choose.

It doesn't look like it's going to collapse even if you're walking a wide road thanks to being well built.

"No, you can't. It's only when you're distracted that you fall out of your carelessness, so you should walk inside more."

Sylvia notices me walking along the cliff. Walking ahead, she was walking for me checking up to the condition of the ground.

"No, I thought if the danger was coming, it would be from this way."

"Danger?"

"Look, I just got here"

I feel signs on the other side of the cloud.

Sylvia also seems to have noticed and stands on a cliff and peeks downstairs.

"Dragon......"

All I see is a silhouette. Still, I can see the dragon looming.

"All ready for battle"

Even so, if a flying demon is against you, you can do magic. Melissa can count on you.

It was Melissa setting up the wand, but I noticed something strange.

"You're not coming out."

"Oh."

There was a dragon silhouette earlier.

But instead of the silhouette of the dragon, even the signs disappeared.

"You got something."

There was something in the cloud that erased the dragon.

There are clouds over 500 meters down.

"I'm gonna go for a second"

I try to jump off a cliff. I can magically fly the sky. I can handle it.

"It's dangerous."

but Sylvia stopped me.

Melissa and Noel jump off a cliff while they turn around and watch her.

"Oh, hey..."

Melissa will be fine, who can magically fly freely through the sky just like me.

But Noel shouldn't have had a way to fly. However, when [Summon] is used in the air, a large bird appears - a balloon eagle (Balloon Hawk).

Balloon Hawk is a bird-shaped demon that can inflate your body like a balloon, 10 meters if spread out. I didn't have enough makeup to get one woman on board, and more importantly, I was proud to be able to get Noel on board that I miss.

The falling Melissa stops in front of the clouds, as does the falling balloon hawk in slow motion. In the case of balloon hawks, it just seems to be stopping when you see where it is just floating on the spot but only slightly moving.

Two people are peering in from above the clouds.

"How's it going over there?

"I sense some strange magic flow."

"I just don't know what's out there when I'm just snooping in"

Even if the distance is apart, the voice can be delivered by chanting.

"I'm coming."

"Oh, is it dangerous?"

"You can't tell anything from here."

They go into the clouds.

We can see what's going on inside if we borrow their sight.

The interior of the bright white cloud sea is dimmed and I remember feeling like my body was heavier.

"Both of you, diagonally down!

Sylvia draws attention next door.

Braces are thrown out from below in the clouds sea.

Silvia's caution also dodges the braces and hits the cliff that was behind it.

"You're ugly."

What the two of us who dodged the braces saw was a frog-faced and bodied chicken. Speaking of chickens is bigger than people, and being stared at with the frog's eyes makes me retreat from disgust.

A demon I've never seen. But I can see from the breakdown of a cliff with braces that I have strength.

Six swords appear around Melissa holding her mouth in nausea.

"I'll take it down."

Melissa flies two swords as she proceeds to swim in the clouds sea. The first sword is raised and dodged, and the second sword plunders where it has fallen and flies back. It has not been manipulated because it is a sword that has been flown with an emphasis on speed.

However, Melissa, approached by a leaping motion while being avoided, chops and chops with the four remaining swords.

Chickens in frogs that have become pieces of meat fall off.

"Wouldn't it have been easier to use magic?

"That's not why I did it."

Grab and retrieve the demonic stone that was in the pieces of meat.

'It's this cloud, but it has the nature to fog magic'

"But there's no such thing as a balloonhawk."

"Probably an effect that doesn't work for demons,"

It consumes more magic than usual just to be flying, according to Melissa. If he was attacking from a distance to defeat the demon, he could have misted it before it arrived.

As a countermeasure, it consumes enough magic to shoot strong magic. However, it could have been done less by approaching and slashing than by wasting such a waste. Sounds like Melissa's choice.

"Be very careful when you come down here."

"Okay."

We head to a place where Melissa, relieved by defeating the demon we were after, unleashes a suspicious magical reaction.

There, there was a magical formation that emitted thin light among the dim cloud waters.

"This is..."

Melissa, with good memory, remembered about the magic formation.

As a labyrinth lord, I can't possibly know what the magic team is either.

"Transfer Magic Formation -"

"Uh, how did you get here?

Ira speaks the question, but it's a good idea.

The Transition Magic Formation was depicted on a cliff. If humans use it, they fall upside down if they don't have the art of flying.

In the first place, it is not intended to be used by humans.

"According to tactical information, this alpine field just has metastatic crystals and no metastatic magic formations exist"

There is no need for transfer magic formations in alpine mountains that do not require movement between hierarchies.

Iris' information is accurate.

"Is it compatible with the connecting surface of the hierarchy or is it installed at a constant height? So it can't be in a place like that"

At least it is not known such as the Transition Magic Formation painted on the cliff.

"When that happens, the metamagic formations that were there from the beginning but were not known"

Those who can fly are rare, and even if they could fly, the dragon's place to travel is too dangerous.

However, there is another possibility given the current situation.

"If that metamagic team is connected to the outside, it could have been set up by Zeon's guy."

"I don't know who installed it, but it looks like it leads to the top of the mine outside."

Know where Melissa, who analyzed the magic formation by [spatial magic], is connected to the transfer magic formation.

"All right, let's break it"

With this stuff, dangerous demons like dragons pop up and go. Attacking the labyrinth would stop you from leaving any more, but I don't know how many dragons will pop up and go between then.

I guess the dragon I just lost also used this metastatic magic formation to jump out and go.

Melissa makes up two swords again to point six swords at the cliff.

I know where I can destroy Melissa at the end of the analysis and make her lose the function of the metastatic magic formation.

Set your aim and release your sword.

But something holds me back, bounces me off, and my uncontrolled sword falls.

"... Ha!

Suddenly Melissa was blown wide behind her.

"hey..."

Out of Melissa's sight, all she could tell was that she suffered an unidentified attack on her abdomen.

Look me in the eye...

"There's something here."
