Episode 89: Strange Requests and Confusion

In the first place.

Yes, in the first place, actually, it's strange to get lost.

Because I'm an adventurer who's come a long way with this.

I have a relatively good sense of direction, and I was walking through this garden maze, making maps in my head.

And yet, why, get lost.

I didn't get that.

So the problem would be what the girl and the gatekeeper said earlier, don't count on the sun, I guess.

When I asked the gatekeeper, I simply thought that we should not judge the direction by the position of the sun.

So that's how I walked in, but the result was lost.

Let's go home to the beginning again, I thought, staring at the sun.

"... usually, I feel like..."

The position of the sun is not particularly strange.

And I think. Probably.

After all, that advice has nothing to do with...?

And, thinking, the next moment I turned the corner of the maze, the position of the sun shifted.

From what I can tell, it was supposed to be over the left side, and it was floating in the opposite position at the same time as it turned the corner.

Even though I was surprised, I thought it might be my fault, and I lowered it a bit, after all, the sun was off position and back to its original position.

After all, you would have been right not to rely on the sun to determine its orientation based on its position.

But then why get so lost...

No, so, I guess.

There's one trick, don't you think?

The position of the sun is irreplaceable.

I see that.

And there's some other trick, and I'm not looking at you.

When the gatekeeper explored the labyrinth, that would be fine if he was even attentive to the sun, which is why he gave that advice.

But if not this time......

So don't tell me that girl's character is a little suspicious, or that she was a crook inside.

Because knowing the advice the gatekeeper gave me, he would have given me the same advice and said that if I was so careful, it would have been okay, but it would have meant that I was doing something else.

I mean, the gatekeeper's advice was factual advice, but the girl's advice was more of a trap to confuse me, maybe.

Sure, because it was some strange vibe or a girl who felt bottomless......

Such a simple hint of strategy and so on. Speaking of unlikely, he was convincing.

I start walking in the labyrinth again with that in mind.

Then he was straight ahead and felt the path distorted.

That was slightly uncomfortable, but I was careful, so I was sure.

The scenery doesn't seem to have changed...... if you try to back down like it did when you checked the sun, something is still different.

Of course the position of the sun has changed, but if you can't guess this...... what to do.

Stop for a moment and think, and look at your feet, you can see and come up with a big stone rolling in your palm.

I picked up a stone and threw it in a space where I felt uncomfortable.

Then the stone he threw disappeared and went somewhere without any context.

"... No way, Kukan, huh?

It is a special sorcery that has not yet been realized in the hands of men.

But... if it wasn't made with people's hands.

It's not unlikely.

By and large, it is the advanced magic props from the labyrinth that form this rose garden, so as one of its functions, it is not strange to be able to do that much.

but i don't think that's what i can have personally......

No, can't you think about it there?

In the meantime, let's think of it as something we can do.

Otherwise I felt I could not attack the maze forever.

Once again, I wander through a space where stones have vanished.

The view did not appear to have changed, but it was clear that it had in fact changed.

Because the stone that was supposed to have disappeared had fallen there.

If you look back and throw it again, it disappears.

After all, going through this place, it seems to be metastasizing.

Besides, it's in a very similar place, an illusory place to be in exactly the same place, pah.

It is also logical that we cannot attack the maze with this.

The map I've been working on in my head is based on the assumption that all roads are connected.

And yet, I guess the actual path is flying.

Not now......

I'm not even sure where I'm walking anymore.

There was no way we could get to the goal.

But.

Not from here.

Take this place as your starting point now and make a map again.

Of course, in my head......

As a matter of fact, I tried to open the "Map of Acacia" of that wonder magic prop to see if it could still be used here, but it appeared thoughtfully on one side of the map that it could not be displayed.

I just wanted to ask what the hell you mean, but there's no way the map can give me that answer.

Well, that's okay.

Interpretation is a play hosted by the rich.

And there are prizes, and I'm not failing or dying...

But when I got here, I thought I'd definitely attack you.

Especially I didn't get caught up in that girl's unexpectedly bad personality confusion, I'd say.

... after I've already caught it and got somewhat lost.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"... finally, with..."

A long rose hedge finally opened the end space.

I could see in front of me a beautiful and spicy hall, a fountain, and that girl drinking tea at a table set up at its place, and Isaac holding back beside me.

They both notice me, the girl gets up and comes to me, and Isaac walks quietly from behind.

And the girl said.

"Congratulations. I never really thought I'd get through the maze Maize."

The look was so beautiful and neat that I didn't think the twelve- or three-year-old girl would make it, but I couldn't help but feel like I could see a slightly mean personality behind it.

Well, it doesn't feel that bad, either.

Rather, it sounds like a prank, would that be most appropriate?

But it's just a little bit of a terrible story that I felt so hard at such a whim, I think.

The sun, which should have originally risen high, is now shining orange and dyeing the world to its pearls.

How many hours the hell have you been in that maze...

"I thought I could soak more. Until you make the sayings of your words."

"I see you've been noticed. Would you have acted a little poorly?

"... No, it was good. If it was me, I would have caught it and left it..."

Needless to say, when it wasn't the body of this corpse ghost Shiki.

I noticed that discomfort only because this body performs extremely well compared to before.

Sensitive to air, smell, and good vision.

That's not why I realized that I lived my own experience.

To my words, the girl leaned her neck slightly,

"Is it you, Kamaya?

That's what I've been asking, but I shake my head,

"No, it's not this way.... So, even though you can get a good look at me, can I get one too?

That's where I've come hard for the purpose, but that's only when the gatekeeper attacks.

There's nothing like that this time, until I'm told, but it's good enough to try.

That's what I thought, but the girl smiled,

"Of course, there is. I'm going to give you whatever you want from what the Latour family has."

That's what I said, so I'm feeling a little mean.

"So what do you want me to do with that vertigo?

That's what I said.

Then the girl opened her eyes, and then,

"... I'm sorry. I can't give you that. Please, give me a break..."

That's what I said, so I said it instantly.

"Just do it. I was fooled in the middle of nowhere, so I wanted to try it."

To the words, the girl, with a flashing face,

"... you're a bad person"

That's what I said, then I smiled all the time.
