Saikyou Mahoushi no Inton Keikaku

Missing Persons at the Boundary

In response to the disturbing movements of the man in the scarf, the big man in the front protruded his thick arm to the side.

"Don't worry, you're lucky you just got here."I won't say anything bad about you, little girl, but I'll tell you how to get home.Now, why don't you just shut up and turn around? "

In an equal tone, the big man must have shown his gratitude.

"It's just words..."He is always in a state of being able to move, and obviously he is a man of strength who reminds the man in the scarf.

Even if I could listen to their suggestions, I couldn't take my eyes off them for a moment.

Before proceeding, Loki shifts his gaze to a slightly weaker merchant who calls himself a man.

“You said nicken. What is your nationality?"

…………

Nicken was silent with a nihilistic smile.

The big man's opposition to Loki made him take on vigilance.Thanks to this, the man in the scarf was somewhat in a position of freedom.

"Don't tell me." It's because of you.I'm telling you, we're not bandits.No noisy requests (,,)

For a moment to emphasize the ending, the man in the scarf felt murderous towards Loki.It was as if he was the only rational beast that showed a fighting spirit.

The big man must have understood that once the threads were loosened, he would have to fight.

The sense of urgency was covered with a boiling pot lid, and it was not strange that it overflowed back at any time.

A man named Nickel dropped his shoulder as if he had given up because of the rough young man next to him.

But unluckily for you, at that moment —— things can't go backwards.

——

Right next to Loki, it also glowed like magic light bouncing off the ground.It was the same amount of light as a flash bomb detonated at close range.

Loki's face was in a state of impatience as her concentration was cut off.The ball is a disposable AWR that Ars gave to each of them as he attempted to infiltrate Eve Sagi.It is a substitute for emitting a light that shows each other's position as insurance when Alice gets lost.

The converging light stretched straight to Loki to support it.

Instantly —— Loki realized that he had lifted his guard from the opponent.

The big man and the man in the scarf did not miss this perfect gap, and they moved in a reflexive manner.

(Shit!)

While opening his eyes, Loki converted his magic power into magic, and went around the [Force] to reverse the delay.Accelerating thoughts in the sight told us that it was completely too late.

Shortly thereafter, the men stood still as they stepped through the ground.

The two eyes did not look at Loki.Eyes that didn't blink to the back.

"Tsk! It tastes awkward."

The frog strangled by the snake was not even slightly moving, and the big man took the initiative to remove the sheath fastener on his waist belt and drop his weapon.

The man in the scarf looks at it and drops open his hand holding the curved sword.

Both showed complete surrender.

The hinges screamed like a mixture of geeks and kiis and the sound of bad standing.

At the same time, enormous amount of magic power flowed out.

The disposable AWR that Alice would have released stretched the line of light showing both Loki and Als.

"Smart. I wish I could have done it peacefully, but things have changed."

Arus comes out of the abandoned house and presents an overwhelming magic power that completely thwarts the opponent's will to fight.So that we can compare our strengths, and the opponents who saw it were just judged to be out of their control.

Loki has already finished his detection and notifies us that Alice is not in close range.

"We don't want to fight each other."Of course, I have no intention of harming [Hana] at first.I was about to be restrained for a while.I hope you can trust me. "

…………

The big man raised his hand and the man in the scarf was completely silent.

“Do you want to try to prove your innocence without revealing your identity?”

The ruthless Arthur's words scratched the big man's hair on the back of his head.

"There's a situation here, too. It's foolish of me to reveal information at first sight."It's even more so when you think about the place. "

"Oh, it doesn't matter what happens when you think about the place."The license is not perfect either. "

Als walked flat on the thin ice.

The meaning of this word is far too violent for a military magician to utter.

The merchant men were sweating so cold that they were about to collapse.I can't understand why my body is trembling.

"Wait!! Let's reveal our identities, I'm sorry we're in a fight here."Besides, you guys must be in a tasteless situation right now..... "

"Alice-san, there must have been another woman, what did you do to her!"

The opponent's chest seemed to stroke down as Loki turned a sharp gaze and blocked his words.

The big man introduced himself casually, saying, "I'm Bashron, this is..."

Randolph.

The man in the scarf told his name in a sweaty tone that caught his throat.

"It's up to you guys to decide."There is no hostile intent here.I was prepared to help.After all, I've been here many times. "

After throwing away your weapon, you don't need to confirm your hostility.He can't get to Arthur, even if he has an Opponent.I've understood enough to say I don't like it.

"If you decide, you should do it quickly."If you take the time, your companions will disappear. "

Bashron's voice seemed to be piling up with impatience every second.

Appearance was enough to distract the bandits, but there seemed to be no point in competing here."I'll show you the way home" I told Loki wouldn't be a lie.It was quite a loose way to get caught off guard.

The man in the scarf —— Randolph looks a little different, but he looks like he's following Bashron's words.

I don't know why they're here, but it's behind us, and now Alice is here.

"Alice"

I tried to raise my voice, but there was no response.The abandoned house is narrow enough to be grasped by a single rotation on the spot.

That's why I couldn't see her, not to mention not being able to hear her.

It is also hard to imagine that Alice, who was more afraid to leave than anyone else, would distance herself.It's impossible to chase a butterfly like a child.Now Alice is afraid to be alone first.

There is no reason to act in a perverse way in the outside world.

"Then..."

"Hey, is that the AWR in the fountain?"

——

Arthur was convinced when he saw the two of them clearly upset.Something more magically affinity than AWR.

It was intended to suggest the original purpose of [Meteor Metal].

It's natural to consider some sort of magical potency in the water that has flowed out of it.

"Ah, ah, even if you know that, you can't solve it."We're the only ones who know how. "

Meteor Metal.

"--!! Did you notice that?"

What! Meteor Metal!?

The merchant Nicken exclaimed in amazement.Even if it was a merchant soul, for a moment, it had only turned its face toward Bashron dexterously without any curse.

Shut the fuck up!

The shriveled merchant, who entered the first mile, was pressured to "Ugh" and tied his mouth together.

Having heard that, Arthur believed his warning.Meteor Metal has special properties.

The only property that cannot be reproduced by modern magic.It is also a unique property.

Even Arthur could be out of hand.

"All right, it looks like one of our guys is missing."First, we need your help finding our people.In the meantime, don't touch the AWR. "

“Um, thank you. And we'd better not move a step.”

Als nodded and Bashron and Randolph relaxed their shoulders and lowered their arms.

Bachelor's face was strong, but his eyes reminded him of his good dad.

"First of all, you're right, it's caused by Meteor Metal."Didn't your people drink the water? "

Alice had the water from the stream in her mouth, and she had already put it in her mouth when she got here.

Ah, maybe.

"That's the cause." He who drinks and he who does not drink will not recognize one another.I couldn't even listen to my voice, but I could recognize magic and magic.If your companion messes with something here, it'll come rolled up. "

"Are you visually blind?"

Bashron immediately denied Arthur's analysis.I twisted my thick neck to the left and right before continuing.

"I can't even recognize each other."I know what you're trying to say, if you hit me.I actually bump into him, but I don't understand him.From the side, even if I had an asshole, I didn't immediately get up and remember it as if nothing had happened. "

If we can't recognize each other physically, we will encounter a mysterious phenomenon.

If I hit it, it was essentially the same as what Arthur had in mind, so I didn't dare to deny it.

Before bumping into the next question, Bashron said, "We've tried it a bit, and the solution is that we drink water.Then we can see each other. "

However, even if it was strange that meteorite was involved, Ars had to nod at first.

"Nicken, you drink first."

"What!? Why would I--"

"I was going to give you a drink on every street."We must be losing effectiveness too, so I'll drink it right away, but you'll forgive me, won't you? "

As Bashron said, if you can't see not only visually but also magically, you can take Alice hostage.

Well, let's have a drink, too.

Can I ask you something?

Yes!

It's because Loki's offer is the best and the only one here.

Since Alice used disposable AWR, it seems that it is not a poison.

What's the time?

Alice's question didn't go away immediately after she drank it.Here, it is unpleasant that errors occur between Loki and Nicken before Alice can be recognized by the amount of time she drinks, such as the time difference.

I couldn't let Alice see her first, no matter how non-magic she was.

"Just a few minutes, there's a personal difference." At most, it's enough. "

"Loki, use the AWR for the signal."

Okay, got it.

That said, Loki and Nicken each watered their mouths with water.
