Chapter V.79: The Sage's Watch Tower

"Sage, Shaura......"

The assembly hall was widened by the name of Anastasia.

Subaru is the only one left in that situation while everyone faces each other and makes a suspicious look at their ears.

Subaru looked troubled and poked Emilia's shoulder nearby a little bit,

"You know, a famous man named Shaura the Wise?

"... Subaru, didn't you read the 'witch' story or something when studying letters? I've been reading a lot of books, and I thought I had that fairy tale."

"A fairytale 'witch' is... uh, a picture book. Speaking of which, I thought you did have a story about the Witch."

Emilia points me out and pulls out old memories from a year ago.

I was almost buried in the memories of my dizzying days, but I studied letters in picture books for children a year ago - when I was just beginning to be looked after at the Roswar Mansion.

It is a collection of masterpieces in this world that summarise fairy tales of popular content, among which was certainly a depiction of The Witch of Jealousy. However, in which:

"Honestly, it's refreshing because it wasn't that detailed. Once upon a time, a witch went bad in a certain place, to a certain extent."

"It was such a blur...... eh"

"- The Jealous Witch, once a symbol of fear that brought chaos and ruin to this world"

It was when I thought to Subaru, who exposed her ignorance, how Emilia explained it. Julius, sitting on the other side of that Emilia, opened his mouth on her behalf,

"There is only a record of her immense magic manipulating the shadows and being a half elf of a brutal, ruthless, extreme character. Other than that, I only know the name...... Satella,. It should be noted that the claw marks left by its presence in the world remain colorful."

"... heh"

Often, Subaru draws his jaw to explain Julius, who killed his emotions as much as he could.

The attitude of focusing on a pale explanation was a painful representation of his mood in reverse, but no one on the spot touched the matter, and his explanation will continue in the meantime.

"The Great Falls of the Far East of Lugnica, where there is a temple made of sealed demonic stones. His witch is still sealed inside the temple. Exhaling enormous temper."

"... I heard you couldn't destroy it. But I could often imitate a powerful witch like that."

"There, the name of an earlier sage comes into play"

Hearing Subaru's doubts, Julius nodded.

The knight touched his hips sword and turned his gaze toward the edge of the round table - the red-haired young man,

"Four hundred years ago, three heroes contributed to the sealing of The Witch of Jealousy. One of them, the name of" Sword Saint ", is Reid Astrea - the first to receive Reinhardt's inherited title of" Blessed Sword Saint, "the sword's petitioner."

"There is also a record that Reid Astrea, the first 'sword saint', was not protected. All known inheritance is not generally true. Of course, it's true that Lady Reid created the name of" Sword Saint "with the Astrea family today."

To Julius, who sees himself, is supplemented by Reinhardt, descendant of the party.

However, it is reminiscent of Reinhardt's expression on the subject of his ancestors, who have accomplished a great feat in history. It also seemed to care about Julius and seemed less aggressive on the topic of his own inherited protection.

Whatever.

"So, there's a sage in that fellow swordsman."

"Precisely about Shaura, the wise man, and Volcanica, the Divine Dragon... see, the dragon that is protecting the kingdom of Lugnica. The fact that Volcanica joined forces in the battle to seal the" Witch of Jealousy "is still the hangover of the promise that Volcanica is keeping an eye on the Kingdom."

With regard to the name of the "Divine Dragon" Volcanica, I heard it many times on the occasion of the King's Election's statement of determination.

The dragon's blood brought abundance to the rough earth, and it was an amazing touch to overcome every disease and make it immense or stunning.

"It is a lesson to call that 'Sword Saint', 'Sage' and 'Divine Dragon' Sanyinjie. You should remember."

"Oh, don't burn...... ok, thanks for explaining"

Raise your hand to Julius and Emilia, then Subaru glances at Beatrice here and there. When the girl noticed Subaru's gaze, she shook her neck loose to the side.

Unfortunately, Beatrice seems to know something about the legend four hundred years ago.

Beatrice, an artificial spirit created in Echidona, but very neglected except for the information needed to maintain the forbidden library. Because it has been hikikomori for too long, it is also quite dull in public opinion, so I don't know what's going on around it.

"I'm sorry I stalled the debate. Let's keep talking. Sage Shaura at heart..."

Apologizing for breaking the hips of the story, Subaru takes the initiative to try to get the story back on its original route. but I noticed the discomfort where I spoke so far, I had to lean my neck.

Four hundred years ago hero, I found out the background to 'Sage' Chaura -,

"What, are you alive? Four hundred years?

"It's so strange... me too, I'm really about a hundred years old..."

――

To Subaru's whining, Emilia looks strange as she puts her finger on her lips. The rally hall was gently annoyed by the whine, but Subaru became "sure" on the contrary.

If you think calmly, Emilia the half elf is over a hundred years old when she is real, and Beatrice is about four hundred lollies. I also think Puck said 400 or something, and isn't the average age of the Emilia faction a little around 100?

"Whatever the fact of the shock... as far as the life and death of the wise are concerned"

"Alive. - They're pretty sure about that."

"Apparently...?

Yikes, Subaru frowns at Julius's answer for his badly chopped teeth.

It's just that Julius isn't the only one with a bad tooth cut, everyone around him is the same. Among other things, it was the faces of Ferris, Reinhardt and the Kingsguard Knights who looked difficult.

"Uh, with Doyuko?

"Location is known, and perhaps, but survival is also confirmed. But does it mean that no human being has ever exchanged words with a key sage..."

"More and more, with Doyuko?

We know where he is, vague, but we can also confirm his survival. but contact is impossible.

I think that's gonna be the way you put it together.

"Currently, Sage Shaura stands near the" Witch Temple, "where she stays all the time to restrain the man who seeks to revive the" Jealous Witch ". Ever since then."

"... 400 years?

"Four hundred years."

It was an uninterrupted story.

Beatrice, who for four hundred years has been stuck in the forbidden library, is also quite stubborn with his sage Shaura.

"The tower where Sage Shaura lives - it's called the Preades Surveillance Tower, sir. So the wise men keep fighting day and night to stop the witch from resurrecting."

"... yeah, there's something in the name of the tower that I think of. No, go on"

"You keep going, and that's pretty much it, right? Sage Shaura powdered herself and kept an eye on the temple for world peace."

Honey, and Ferris slap his hand in the face of the displeasure itself.

Shit, it's clear from his attitude that he hasn't talked at all, and that alone doesn't explain this overnight mood in the assembly hall.

Naturally, there must be some reason...

"Um, are you the one with the problem?

"For the sake of world peace, Shaura, the wise man who keeps an eye on the witch... his name is wide open and will be known all over the world. We've known each other since we were in Kararagi. But at the same time, Shaura the Wise is known."

――

Anastasia smiles hard, makes a beat, a build-up of words.

And then I turned to Subaru, where I have a bad feeling, I said.

"Who can't be trusted by Sage Shaura? Extreme human distrust. Humans close to shrines and watchtowers, whatever their purpose, kill every last one of them, no matter what."

- According to Anastasia's explanation, this is the case.

Shaura, the wise man who builds the Preades watchtower and keeps an eye on the 'Witch Temple'.

His attempts to make contact with and interact with the wise have been numerous and numerous challengers before, but all of the prospects have failed, frustrated.

That is also due to the obstruction of the wise Shaura herself, who is no other.

"The Great Falls on the eastern tip of Lugnica..." The Witch Temple "and the surveillance tower seem to be in the ground, but from a wise man, I don't know which one of the nearby humans looks like."

Therefore, the wise man kills them all, indiscriminately, whether they are unholy witches trying to expose the 'Witch Temple' or humans trying to make friendly contact with the wise men of the watchtower.

Because it doesn't matter what good or evil the subject is, what good or what bad, what good or what bad, it's the best.

As a result, no presence has been reported and recorded for the past four hundred years that has been able to make contact with the wise Shaura.

"But when we get close, the situation continues, so I'm just saying I'm pretty sure Shaura, the sage, is still in the watchtower."

"Wow you're an annoying sage..."

"Even so. In fact, because many witches try to get closer to the shrine than Svalbarki imagined. The wise man who takes it from one end of the spectrum keeps only the purpose of preventing the revival of the Jealous Witch."

Nevertheless, the look on Ferris's face does not clear even if he is expressing a positive opinion. It is common to all Kingsguard Knights that they look unfloated, so perhaps they have experience of being painfully eyed by wise men on a Knights scale.

Subaru, on the other hand, even snorts at Ferris' pre-construction opinion.

Certainly it would be annoying to take the view that no means are chosen for the purpose, but it is a natural alarm given the wicked nature of witchcraft.

Rather, it is also conceivable that this world has some degree of safety working in the presence of the 'Jealous Witch' because that is all there was to keep the 'Jealous Witch' alert.

"It doesn't matter who the concealer is who lives at night and frightened as time permits. What would matter would be the fact that I owe my concubine a finite amount of time. If the futility continues, the concubine will return to the Inn early. You have to let Schult rub your feet."

"Yes, it is! Master Priscilla is very tired of working hard! You work with all your heart."

A shrut held over and buried in his busty chest responds with a red face. Priscilla stroking the boy with the grin of a bad girl has not found much value in this discussion in the first place.

It's a miracle in itself that she doesn't get eclampsia and hangs out so far.

"I know you're with the princess there, but I agree with you that it's time to get down to business. Talk to me, Sage."

and demands that Felt also look out of the way that he should get to the point.

Agreeing with the way it was, Subaru looked back at Anastasia,

"I've interrupted you so many times, it's me, but what about that abandoned sage?

"Well, then we can finally get back to the beginning."

Anastasia slaps her hand. As she stood, she looked over at the faces of everyone at the round table, gently touching the fox collar roll,

"- As we all know Shaura, the wise man, contributed to the sealing of The Witch of Jealousy with his rare wisdom and magic. And the breadth of sight, also said to see the world, and the knowledge, also said to know everything about the world. If we talk about both of them without exaggeration... you know how to do something about witchcraft, don't you?

"... but that's also only a hopeful observation, right?

"Is that what Natsuki-kun is against?

The form in which questions are returned to questions, but it is difficult to answer Anastasia's queries.

Simply because I can only rely on the title of "Sage," I'm honest. I don't think Subaru is a bad idea either. If you are someone who has accomplished enough to remain in the heirloom, or you really might know the means to resist the witch factor of the great sin.

However, a different anxiety from that does not capture Subaru and let him go.

The name of 'Sage' Chaura and the Preades Surveillance Tower where the Sage lives. Those two keywords won't make Subaru honestly accept the proposal.

Because Shaura and Preades are both familiar words to Subaru.

――――

Shaura, in Subaru's modern knowledge, is the name that indicates the second star of Scorpio.

Preades, etc. in the Preades Surveillance Tower are more blatant, and that is the name of a gathering of stars called the Preades constellation - its Japanese name is called ''.

Regardless, I don't even think that indicates Natsuki Subaru, but just because the name of Subaru's known star comes up in this world, it's alert MAX.

The Archbishop of Witchcraft - Petergius, Regulus, Sirius, Capella, Alfaldo, Battenkaitos.

It is impossible not to precede the Sage Shaura and the Preades Watch Tower, the status quo in which all the Bishops of the Great Crimes whose names are known bear the names of the stars of the Subaru world on their names.

"Regardless of Subaru's disagreement..."

No effective objection comes to mind and Ferris pinches his mouth on behalf of Svalbard, who pushes silently. He stood his finger on his cheek, posing as his usual attitude, except with a rugged eye.

"The opinion itself may be good about visiting Sage Shaura, but how is that a problem? Is there a way to do that? No one can get to the watchtower."

"Are you talking about the sage being too strong to get there?

Ask the thoughtful Ferris words as Felt scratches a horseshit over the chair. It's Reinhardt she sidelines with.

I see, if you're simply saying it doesn't extend to the power of the wise -

"Wouldn't it matter if we had Reinhardt? I only use the strong part, but if it's just the strong part, it's amazing."

"It's unusual for Master Felt to praise you, thank you"

"This is it."

Felt grudgingly tongues at Reinhardt's answer. but soon after that, Reinhardt lowered his brow butt like he was in trouble.

as it were, he said, "but......" and foreshadowed with regret,

"Unfortunately, I couldn't reach the watchtower. Insufficient force."

"... Isn't he a little underpowered?

"Lack of combat power, it doesn't mean, Master Felt. There will be no realm in this world that does not extend to Reinhardt's strength. It's just that the Preades Tower is not the same problem as that kind of fault."

"I know you well... if you were a Kingsguard knight, it's obvious"

Ferris looks like he won't be able to do it to Julius, who follows Reinhardt. With the relationship between the three Kingsguard knights shattering sideways, Subaru told Reinhardt,

"What was the purpose of meeting a wise man?

"It's the kingdom's order. The cure for the disease. - Two years ago."

"Two years ago..."

disease and the phrase two years ago made Subaru understand the background.

Speaking of now two years ago, it was just at a time when the royals were supposedly falling into one unexplained disease after another in Royal Castle. An epidemic disease with no cure - perhaps it was contact with the wise man, to know how to treat the disease, which Reinhardt ordered.

But it's unfulfilled, and that's why the three Kingsguard knights have sinister faces.

"The surveillance towers and shrines are present in the Great Falls at the eastern end of Lugnica - in the Augurian dunes that extend around it. I can see the surveillance tower far from the dune entrance. So I'm not supposed to lose sight of the place..."

"What?

"Incredible phenomena are frequent in the dunes, making it impossible to get close to the surveillance tower. One theory says it might be caused by a leak from the temple."

"On top of that, the Augurian sand dunes are turned into a nest of warcraft, attracted by curiosity. The fierceness and toughness of the Warcraft are different digits in a land of great concern. In that sense, it's supposed to be suicide to go there in the first place."

"The Lost Desert WITH Warcraft's Nest. Hell indeed..."

In addition to the troubles of the wise man himself, there are a large number of warcraft that travel through that desert to a desert that cannot even trample Reinhardt - this is too many elements of abstinence.

I am also convinced that contact with the wise has not been fulfilled once in four hundred years.

"- What if I have the means to cross that hell?

――――

At the moment when the dark atmosphere was about to set in, everyone looked up at the fuzz words.

Just at the best timing I interrupted, Anastasia smiles at the synagogue. And she nodded so that she could see them all,

"Because of that, we went out of our way to give the Sage's name."

"Anastasia from Kararagi knows how to reach a wise man who's been hiding for 400 years at this time?... what way"

"My pretty face is ruined. Even if it's a pungent face, I'd like to explain it."

Eat and gently flush such ferris, Anastasia removes the collar roll from her neck.

And as she spread the collar roll over the round table, she lifted that part of her head,

"I told you before the defensive battle, my artificial spirit Echidna. This kid will know the way to the Preades Tower. - Then we can go meet the sage of the watchtower."

――――

To Anastasia's assertion, Subaru breathed.

Artificial Spirit Echidna, its presence dressed as a fox collar roll, is the key to reaching the wise.

"- What do you expect so much attention? I can light it up."

The Spirit of the White Fox who says so and brings his neck.

Like the witch who borrowed that name, Subaru was unknown as to how far it could be believed.
