Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave
Episode 1004: Lost Forest
The day after that I finished my last break. All armed, the kites stood in front of the woods passing to 'Partel', the second city in southern La Elia.
"This is commonly known as the Lost Forest. It's a forest no one's called in their real names in the last 200 years."
"This is... uh-huh"
Yuri tongues as she sees the woods listening to Frodo. My face is only rare. And Kate, again, had the same face. The signs of stickiness were spreading.
"Quite a loose end, this... there was even a Necromancer in that lab... damn."
"I mean, follow me... acquired. This is connected to the rest of the world. Even so, it's not perfect, but..."
"With the afterlife?
Sora reacts to Yuri's words. I don't know what it is, but I didn't seem to have a busy feeling about it.
"Yeah... the afterlife isn't the afterlife in a pure sense."
"Yellow Springs Hirasaka, Hades' Protected Underworld... That's the place"
"... in the afterlife, right?
"No, no. It's the border between the afterlife and the world. Nobody in the afterlife. I can't follow. Before you get there, the place to wash your soul away is the original underworld that people perceive. You can't go back into the circle of reincarnation."
Kate laughs and gives commentary. If that's the case, I guess this is halfway to the border between those worlds and the world.
"... you mean a place called the Three Ways River?
"Right. All the Yellow Springs Hirazaka and the Underworld are inherently to be regarded as the River of the Three Ways. There's actually a god here, so they're doing a solid academic research there."
"I see..."
I am convinced that the answer to the question of the red wings, the more we all become. And at the same time, then there was no wonder Kite knew.
"Does that mean that's where we're going?
"Maybe... don't you feel it? Something thin cold, sticky..."
"... sure, don't feel that way"
Kisarazu agrees slightly with Kate's words. It's not horrible. I don't even feel any danger. Just as an instinct, I can understand that death is full up ahead. I was getting that feeling.
"Heavenly Sound... isn't it too dangerous?
"No, in the afterlife, you won't produce that powerful demon. It's just that kind of space."
"Well, still half way out, so I don't know what's going on here. You better mind."
Frodo tells Kate's words as he flickers through the woods. The eyes were rare and serious.
"And... you don't know my brother, do you? This sign I feel on my skin. with those days. Death is manifest, and the underworld is occurring. Something here is forcefully resisting being sent into the afterlife. Therefore, this area of the forest itself is simulated as the underworld to deal with. There may be worse things than demons."
"Oh... whoever's ahead... probably won't die..."
Kate gazes sadly at the back of the forest. Honestly, I just thought it was sad. And at the same time, I held my anger in my chest again. Whatever I thought, I just wondered if the results of the lab experiment would have stopped me from dying.
"No... just on the way"
"Oh, I know... let's do it a little bit at the bottom of the woods"
"Mmm."
Kite responds to Soleil's wishes. I can't overlook any amount of this. It turns out that the life ahead of us is already supposed to be dead.
It should be noted that Soleil is a stronger victim of past wars than ghosts. Compassion seems to have prevailed over fear. Determination crept in and there seemed to be no sense of fear.
"Bad. Moving on here... maybe a little dangerous, unlike I expected, but... sorry"
"No... I wouldn't mind that. Red wings, too?
"Oh... if that's the case, you won't have a choice. I'll take care of the perimeter."
Moments and red wings give permission to kite's conclusion. It turns out that there's something sad going on ahead, not just for the two of us. Then he decided that it would be good enough to help him at the cost of getting there.
Besides, if Kate and the others talk, it's possible to deal with it. We can move on without finding out, and we can help some kind of person. It wasn't a bad story.
"Go."
"Ooh."
Everyone nods at Kite's decree. As such, the kites were going all the way into the woods.
The kites started going through the woods, for a while. I just walked into the woods. So the kites got to know the main part of The Lost Forest.
"Is this... is that what you mean?"
"Hmm?"
"Senior Red Wings. Can you use your magic to sound the bow without releasing an arrow?
"What do you mean?
In response to Kite's words, the red wings tilt their necks. Surely even if they say it abruptly, they won't know why.
"Uh... I'm a guy named Ringstring Ritual... don't you know?
"Oh, the Ringstring Rite? I know... oh, I see. Is that what you mean? Can you teach me how to do this?
When the red wings take the bow in their hand, they wish to teach Kite how to do it. The Ringstring Ritual is an ancient Japanese method of de-psychosis. It would also be a commonly known method of pulling and sounding without holding an arrow to a bow string.
That said, of course, there is no way you can de-spirit simply by making a sound. They also found that out on the red wings, so I asked Kite how to do it.
"Yeah... this isn't Japanese style, it's the way we do it in Nakatsu. When I met with the surgeons over there during the intercontinental conference, it was just a hands-on lesson you taught me... but it would work."
"Right. So how do we do it?
"Firstly, build strength on the bow, not the arrow... if you are not used to it, remove the bow suspension (distortion). Oh, don't accumulate magic on bowstrings when you accumulate magic."
"Oh."
The red wings take Kite's word for it and take off the bow suspension - gloves for the bow. I think I might make arrows out of habits, you know. Surely it would be troublesome to release an arrow by mistake.
"So, pull the string... hands off"
"Sooo..."
Red Wings let go by pulling the bowstring in a sacred way when he breathed. Then a thin, magical ridden vibration was released around the perimeter. No matter how hard you try to avoid magic in the bowstring, the magic will penetrate slightly from the bow. That being said, that's fine. A much thinner, but deliberately more difficult, amount seems to be important in this case than can be done with that force.
"Ah... I don't know, there's a sound..."
Sora, who was blurring her ears, looks around. Normally it was completely different than pulling a bow string and ringing, and they heard a similar sound to the sound of a bell somewhere.
"It's a resonance of magic... again"
"Oh."
The red wings, instructed by Kite, again perform the Ringstring Ritual with Kite. Now they were all clear ears and nobody emitted anything, so they were clearly audible to everyone's ears.
"I knew Rika..."
"What's up?
"Again, I'll do it. Now watch what happens when the sound comes back... so, I think you'll see."
Hundreds of hearings are only at first sight. That's what I thought. Kite does the ringing string ritual by herself. Besides, now everyone was focusing their spirit on the reaction that hit the trees and came back, not the sound that rang from the strings.
"" "Ah..." "
All together note a slight deviation from the true north. From here, I felt a sad reaction that was somewhat chilly.
"Okay, looks like it."
"Oh... there's some sign of a faint cold..."
Red Wings nodded at Kite's inquiry. That was what Kate was feeling.
"Perhaps you are the cause of this sign."
"After that, should I walk while doing the ringing string ritual?
"No, the Ringstring Rite doesn't have the power to remove spirits."
Kate laughed and shook her head at the Red Wings inquiry. If Kate does it, it still doesn't make any sense where the Red Wings, who don't hold the power of de-spirits together, did it.
"The Ringstring Instrument can indeed temporarily repel magical attacks, etc., but it is simply because this magic wave is a special object. I don't know the details, though. Well, experts say that vibrating changes the magic fluctuations into various forms, so there's probably a mix of powers that can be slightly de-spirited or exorcised."
"That means it's temporary and makes little sense."
"Yeah. They can deal with it if they only have so weak power in the paying world and weak ghosts... but it's going to be hard to deal with it when it gets to the point where it feels so far away in the boulder."
Kate responded to the red-winged word as she saw a slight deviation from the true north. That's how I told you what I saw.
"Perhaps... the victims of yesterday's lab were abandoned here without being buried."
Kate recollects the far past, talking. There were many demons here like eating wolves, wild dogs, and human corpse meat. but it wasn't a lot, it must have come together inevitably.
I don't know why it's gone now, but the resentment has accumulated here over time. Not far from this, it will be the Guardian's turn.
"I guess it's the resentment of abandoned victims that's calling people astray."
"But no. You didn't have that kind of evil in you when you got help, did you?
"Well, what... maybe there's a guardian somewhere."
Kate answers as if she were just a little worried about Soleil's words. What protected her. I don't know that. The resentment accumulated here contains considerable resentment. The quantity is not comparable to the mountains of the Lakham and the Golden Lion tribes, but there was more intense resentment scattered than the obvious point where the resentment was directed.
That would also be natural. It was such an inhumane experiment. That said, if so, as Kate has noticed in the principles here, there is no wonder that someone will notice if there is a spirit and a close being. Kite is also a psychic, but it's never just Kite. It's no wonder that someone from time to time is visiting here to try to de-spirit, or saving someone who got lost because he couldn't handle it.
"Well, if you can meet that protector..."
"Oh. There's a chance we can break through easily."
Kite also agrees with Sora's words. It's hard to believe the spirits saved it. If so, it was likely someone else who saved it. And then it would be best this time to ask for that someone's help.
"Let's go. First of all, it's nothing to try not to meet the protectors... but maybe the grievances will materialize and strike. Just be careful."
Kite draws attention. The target is a grudge spirit. It is more troublesome than demons, but at the same time it is easier to deal with them than demons. The demon doesn't know what he's going to do, but the other guy is a bent ex-husband.
What can be done is only about plus alpha to what he was originally able to do. They can't use psychokinesis because it's a grudge spirit.
"Something... there's a real war going on here."
"Hmm?"
"No... I've only ever thought of it as past history... and this is how you want to turn away from me. You're sleeping somewhere, saying..."
Against Kite, Sora speaks sadly. His eyes were sadly laid low, and he could tell whether or not this had happened in reality. Besides, I agreed with you for a moment.
"Whenever you walk one step, don't let hostility come to you..."
"Hey... how old are they, victims..."
Sho asks. The face was not intrigued or anything, but the emotion seeped to find out as much as possible about the other person in order to mourn him.
"... since I was about 6 years old downstairs, about you guys up there, I guess... it's the word of someone who used to be in the lab here."
"Eh... well."
Sho smiles at Frodo's words. That said, that's why I took an even stronger step.
"Frodo, Soleil. Both of you, lead the way. Maybe even if there's a guardian out there, it should be deeper."
"" Yeah. "
Frodo and Soleil respond and start leading together. As a result, the kites set foot further into the woods.
