"Well, come out today ..."

A few hours waiting for Erin in front of the school in District 1.

I couldn't help shrugging on the same result.

We have not yet made contact with Erin. Erin never appears outside the school.

I thought I would go home at night, but that's not true.

Apparently she is staying at the school, and she is in the school at around 46:00.

If this lasts for several days, it seems better to give up reuniting with Erin.

You will not be able to meet while the school is off limits, at least when the seven wise selections are made.

"That's right. What are you doing in the school?"

"I don't know. Isn't it hard to get outside and become a celebrity?"

"Is Erin a celebrity? The times have changed."

"Really. Erin is a candidate for the Seven Kens. The times and Erin have changed ..."

Even when he was in The Arrivers, Erin was well known as a mage.

However, it was a mage for a dungeon capture party that currently boasts the highest rank.

But now, as a mage, she was recognized throughout the country.

It seemed glad and a little lonely.

It looks like Erin I know went to another place.

Originally, I would have to be pleased with my acquaintances, but it was also true that some people did not accept them well.

"What do you do? What if Erin would be really chosen wisely?"

"At that time-do we have to give up on the 'Arrivers' revival ..."

Once Erin has become the Seven Sages, it's impossible to get into "The Reacher."

It is impossible for the Seven Magi, the country's possession mage, to enter a private adventurer party.

Even so, Force and Neme have refused to join the party.

Six people who were once become only me and Rosria.

Such a party is no longer "Arrives". Something else party.

If "Arrives" cannot be resurrected, what will we do in the future?

Are you going to make a new dungeon capture party?

Or do you have to give up your dream of dungeon capture?

You have to make a hard decision.

"Erin is impossible and is refused by Force and Neme, so it's a desperate situation to think again."

"It's not impossible, so don't be depressed!"

Roslia makes a fist in front of her chest and bounces her shoulders.

"Did you forget that in the first place? Erin's next opponent is Esker? Is she able to beat Erin?"

"That's right ..."

It was also true that Erin had a major obstacle to winning the Seven Wise Selection.

Escal Burnout. He is an unusual user of space magic and is the strongest candidate to win all wins at the moment.

I heard that Erin didn't have any hands or feet in the first half of the tenth round.

"Isn't Yuil saying that too? Erin must surely win. Isn't it that you have to lose all in the first half in the first place, you have to win all in the second half?"

"Well ..."

As Rosria says, Erin must be won at least in the second half of the game in order to be selected as the Seven Sages.

And it's finally a draw.

Since Erin is inferior to Esker in his performance against other candidates, he must win the judge in the second half of the match in the second half to be considered overwhelming.

Erin had to show even more overwhelming power to the already overwhelming Transfer Zone opponents.

We, our former colleagues, would have to believe in Erin's victory, but it seemed difficult for Erin to win now when we saw Escar's overwhelming abilities.

"In the first place, we have to support Erin, but it's complicated to be troubled if Erin becomes a Seven Sages."

"Yes, as an acquaintance, I want Erin to win, but if I win, I will not be able to adventure with us."

"Would it be more convenient for Escar to win this way, and then I could talk to Erin ..."

"It's not so good that Note-kun wants Erin to lose."

"That's not it! I want Erin to win! It looks like she's working hard! But if she wins, she won't be in trouble ..."

"I know. It's like a joke."

"That's fine ..."

That said, there was one who didn't honestly hope for Erin's victory.

Well, if the result is as it is, it's not a problem.

You may not have to think too deeply about this.

"So what do you do? Do you want to wait a little longer for Erin?"

"It seems that he will come out even if he waits ..."

"Well, why do you schedule your training earlier?"

You can continue your training purely as it is, but it was also true that you were hitting a wall.

It is unlikely that the Force will win if you keep trying hard.

"No, there's a place I want to go to."

"Are you on a date?"

"That's not it. I've come to Isar, and I'll see it with magic tools."

"This city is also famous for magical tools, but why are they magical?"

"Isn't it possible to make up for the lack of ability with magic tools ..."

"I see. That's why."

The definition of a magic tool is ambiguous, but it is generally regarded as a tool related to magic power.

There are a lot of things that can be activated by magic, and a lot of things that have hidden magic inside them.

In a broad sense, it also refers to magical household products and city defense equipment.

It is not uncommon for adventurers to use magical tools in battles.

The wands used by Erin and Neme are magical tools, and the ring and bombs used by Aisha for sound magic are typical.

The sword purgatory used by the Force may also enter into a magic tool to generate a magical black flame.

It is natural for adventurers to make up for the missing skills with tools.

Until now, I haven't relied on such tools because it was meaningless to me because the original fighting power wasn't high unless they were magical.

Such magical tools are quite expensive and difficult to obtain.

The town of Purif is also considered to be a sacred place for dungeon magic tools, but dungeon magic tools are as expensive as stupid.

Considering the amount of money and the type of magical equipment that is placed, Izar will be better served.

"Isn't it nice? I wanted to go to the magical shop in Isar once for sightseeing."

"Well, it's good. If so, do you decide to go early?"

"Yes. Do you know a good store?"

"It seems that there is a famous magic tool market in the third ward."

"Hey. It's a bit far, but will you go?"

With the consent of Rosria, let's say we're heading to the magic city in the third ward.

The market was once thriving, with the carriage changed once.

The street market that spreads out from the carriage drop-off is so crowded that the people who come and go are overwhelmed, and the voices of customers are constantly heard.

As I walked down the street, I found simple items that could be used to support daily life and adventures for the general public, but did not find anything that could be used to search for dungeons.

Apparently, high-performance magic tools are sold strictly in the building behind.

The magic tools in the building at the back seem to be expensive, but I decided to take a look.

"Surely the atmosphere is different ~"

When you enter the oval dome-shaped building, you will be overwhelmed by the scenery.

The inside had a hierarchical structure, and the center of the building was an atrium.

From the central aisle, you can see the shops on each floor, and you can go to the second or third floor from the large stairs in front of you.

"Yeah. It's completely different from the outside ..."

Although the street market had many magical tools for ordinary people, this building was a highly specialized store.

At a glance, it seems that there are the most shops for wizards. There are various stores, such as a store specializing in magic stones, a store specializing in magic books, and a store specializing in canes.

When I entered a nearby magical catalyst specialty store, I saw a piece of cloth in a case.

"This price on a piece of cloth ...?"

"You can afford one house ..."

A clerk came to see the situation when they were both surprised.

"It's a very precious cloth, it's a recommended product from this shop."

"Really?"

"Yes. It's a cloth-shaped magic catalyst, which is rare in the world. It's hard to say that it has such a high affinity with magical powers and techniques and is durable."

"Is this a magic catalyst too ..."

In short, is it like Erin's wand or Esha's wand?

Certainly, cloth-shaped magic catalysts have never been seen before.

"Is it possible to cast magic through this cloth?"

"Yes, it is difficult to use it as it is, but it is an advantage that it can be processed into any shape. Yeah. "

"So that's it……"

There seem to be various magic tools in the world.

This cloth is for mage. I can't use it without me.

No, how about? Can it be used depending on the device?

I wanted to think in various ways, but for the time being, I would like to look at other stores' products.

You may find more useful and useful magic tools.

I thanked the clerk for the explanation and decided to leave the store and go to another location.

Next was a magic store for adventurers of choice.

Unlike the magic sword shop for swordsmen and the archer's magic bow shop, there are versatile weapons and items for adventurers.

"Oh, there's also daggers."

Various daggers were on display in the corner for thieves.

Looking at it, it seemed like a dagger that could release a certain magic when passed through magic.

There's everything from simple magic like Light Emitting to daggers that can fire offense magic like Flame Slash.

"Is it a dagger that can shoot magic? I haven't seen much use."

"Sure. Some people use magical swords sometimes, but you may not have seen Daggers much."

"That's it-"

The clerk who found us talking on the display shelf answered the question.

Apparently, daggers are generally smaller in volume than swords, making it difficult to prepare them.

Even the ones that are currently in stores seem to be magical with low power compared to swords.

Well, anyway you need magical power to use it, and when you activate it, you can not release the great magic that can be passed on to dungeon monsters.

According to a sales clerk, it seems that the point that requires magic can be solved by using a magic stone that plays the role of a magic tank, but it seems that the problem of power can not be solved at all.

If you have a dagger that can release the magic of a deep dungeon, it's just a weapon.

There must be no situation in Magic City where anyone can buy it. Stored strictly in the country.

I looked at other magic tools, but none of them seemed to buy.

I was worried about the magic shoes that could fly in the sky with Steam Jet, but floating in the air momentarily did not solve my lack of attack power.

In the first place, the price is too high to buy, and the price does not seem to be worth the effect at the time of purchase.

It was fun to look around, but I couldn't find any magical stuff that could improve my fighting power.

If dungeons could be captured using magical effects alone, the dungeons would have been overtaken by human beings.

That is not going to be so good in the world.

***

And the day of fate that came.

Seven wise selection second half of the eighth game.

Fighting are Erin Fottroad, which we all know well, and Esker Burnout, who showed the overwhelming space magic in Game 7.

With the exception of Mill, who has lost all, and the two who declined, the two candidates for the Seven Kens are the two candidates.

The battle that will begin is the final battle of the seven wise selections, a so-called top battle.

After the battle, one of the two will be elected the Seven Sages.

We can be at the moment when the history of this country is decided.

"Hey, you guys. If you don't go early, the game will start."

It was Yule who took the ticket this time.

It is not easy to get a ticket because the seven wise selections are the final race.

How good is it to be able to get it with a connector and give it to us just on the way.

"That's why the common people ..."

My mouth is still bad ...

Still, what can I hate is Yuil's personality?

"I'm sorry……"

While running gently, lower your head.

When we entered the venue, it was crowded with more people than in the seventh game.

People like guards of the country with escorts can be seen.

Immediately after this battle, there are announcements of the new Seven Sages, and they may be involved.

Finally find their seat and decide to sit down.

I already had a little bit of the heat of the venue.

"No, I'm nervous."

Rozria sits next to her face, pattering.

"Is it your first time to see Erin-san in a year?"

"Yeah, I'm fine ..."

"Is it fine enough to be in the Seven Wise Selection, isn't it fine? Or rather, should we support Erin? Or should we support Escar?"

"I'm not sure ..."

In the end, the dead end remained unresolved.

I want Erin to win, but I don't want him to be the Seven Sages to get back to the party.

What a contradictory idea. I don't really know what to do.

"Don't worry about that. Erin is unlikely to win this game.

"Yes ..."

"That's okay, I'm gonna cheer for Erin from the bottom of my heart. The result is always decided."

"But there's an emergency, right?"

"People predict that more than 90% expect Esker to win, and Erin's win in the second half will have lost five in the first half. It's unlikely that they will overtake Esker and become the Seven Sages. ''

"Huh ..."

Do you believe in Yuil's words?

We who just came to this city don't know too much about the unique battle of this city, "Ten Battles".

Let's believe in his words that have seen "Ten Battles" much more than we do.

"Yes, I'll support Erin with no mind."

"Well, I wanted to skip Erin-san ..."

"Let's stop that ..."

I am amazed at Rozria's regrettable pursue.

Is it always going or not? Completely normal operation.

Are you really nervous?

While talking like this, a howling noise of a keen noise reverberated throughout the venue.

"Um, I'm waiting. Soon, the 10th round of the Seven Wise Selections will begin in the second half of the eighth game. "

You can hear the announcement of the battle that determines the history of this country and the beginning of the battle that determines the destination of the "reachers."

The battle of Erin begins now.
