Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

"Dear Hartos,"

Paulino's voice echoed in the downtown area of the city of Mor in the Aquaristan region. They said until earlier that the place should have been at the Phoenix family, about five hundred mels south of, but when they realized it, they were in the heart of downtown.

It seemed as if the memory was missing just before, such as when they realized they were there, but they remember the last minute memory well.

Paulino and the others were flown into a space that I'm not sure was known by Emris, who would call himself the Enchantress if I thought they had been attacked by a thick fog. Hartos would have faced Saint Knight Arthur-One and lost without a tooth at all to start the fight. Both events took place in a mysterious place called the Space of Nothingness.

And if you notice, they were in the heart of downtown. As if I even teleported.

People walking around give a strange look to the haltos who are stunned in the heart of downtown, but I guess it's because they're ecclesiastical people who don't look particularly suspicious. Hartos in particular is one of the thirteen apostles with only thirteen in this country and a celebrity whose face is also known.

But that doesn't matter to them now.

The Hartos quickly turned back to the Phoenix family, but there was no one there. The Hartos cannot hide their confusion at the strange events that have taken place in less than enough time.

But unlike his men, Hartos also thought about what Arthur had told him.

that the Episcopal Church today is an utterly false institution and that a dungeon exists in the basement of the Episcopal Church that has closed the Royal Leirian family. And that the current St. Lucifer School of Magic is where the Royal Palace was during the reign of the Kingdom of Leiria.

None of the stories have solid evidence, Arthur affirmed. Besides, it may be true that that possibility cannot be discarded, given that 'Last One', which can only be used by the Holy Knight, was not activated.

But even if it is true, for Hartos the Episcopal Church is a necessary institution. The kingdom of Leiria today consists of the presence of the Episcopal Church, a real institution while it governs, even if it is a false institution.

The country will perish now even when we think about history and such. So Hartos had decided in his heart to affirm the Episcopal Church regardless of the authenticity of Arthur's words. And Paulino and the others told me a funny story.

"Are you sure the magicians are such as the Enchantress Emris?

"Yes, but the truth..."

"No, I don't care if it's true or false. It was Chro at the time we named it."

Hartos, who had received some explanation for this one from one of the seven sages and oldest Alfredo, had heard that Arthurs was acting with Emris, one of the seven priests.

It doesn't matter if the person is real or not. The problem is the power I used.

"That space was certainly a different place from this real world"

"Yes, it was like being in a different world"

"The magician who presides over time and space..."

I know exactly what it means to preside over time and space to the Hartos who have experienced it. Despite his battle with Arthur, Hartos's time when he was in the heart of downtown is little different than when he visited the Phoenix family.

It doesn't just feel like space transfer, it feels like time has just been rewinded a little bit.

That's impossible first and foremost with modern magic. Spatial transfers exist as a precedent for the Leirian Magic Games moving to Lapis Island, but that is a legacy of the past that can be realized for the first time using many devices and enormous amounts of energy.

You can say that it is impossible for a modern man to reproduce the same thing in this city of moles first. It is also impossible to rewind time to it with modern magic, and there is no precedent in this.

In other words, an event that Hartos' knowledge cannot explain has just happened. The only thing I can say for sure at the moment is that people who fang at the Episcopal Church, including Saint Knight Arthur, use unknown powers they don't know about.

That's what makes Paulino and the others anxious.

If you take it from Paulino and the others, the Enchantress Emris is an incompetent being. Hartos has not told the Paulinos that the Episcopal Church today is a false institution. Even if what Arthur is saying is true, he will never imitate it like he would distribute it.

So if you try Paulino and the others, Emris is a group that uses mysterious powers that don't even know their purpose, and they're going to be attacked by anxiety about what's going to happen to the world.

But their purpose is all the same. To do all that for the kingdom of Leiria today, which is my country. That's why they belong to a central institution in this country called the Episcopal Church.

"Dear Hartos, what shall we do now?"

"Whatever it is, the mission is a failure. We just have to go back to the Episcopal Church once."

"And then what?

Paulino and the others can predict that. The question is how does it work from there. The Paulinos are the only ones who know the horrors of the Enchantress Emris in the present situation, and perhaps explaining that would not be acceptable from around them. Most of the facts out of the modern magic system are said to be the result of dreams and minds.

I mean, seriously, only Hartos' troops here can take measures. But if you move on your own and you get out of the thoughts of the Seven Wise Men, it means you're going down.

Hartos decides to show a slight touch.

"We independently look into the Enchantress Emris. As soon as you return to the central kingdom, you will follow every record to find out about the Enchantress Emris."

"Ha. What about Master Hartos?

"Report to the Seven Wise Men"

"Yes, sir."

Hartos told one lie at this time. He intends to examine the ecclesiastical basement before reporting to the Seven Wise Men. But you don't have to bother telling Paulino and the others about it. Because it's all he has to do.

Thus the policy of the Hartos squad was determined.
