Moving on with that in mind...... the human magic reaction approached.

Apparently, there's an imperial security net nearby.

'I knew you were on guard...'

"No matter how early in the morning, you can't be alert..."

"Baron Lelaire's territory is full of fighters who kicked the doll. Be vigilant and natural."

With that said, I'm gonna probe the hole in the alarm net.

Even though a vigilance net is laid, the other person is a person who hasn't even mastered 'passive detection'.

That would also be a vigilance net to notice when enemy troops attack in, rather than prevent espionage intrusion.

With this level of alert netting, it's never hard to get behind.

Extreme stories, hidden magic, can be used to bare the edge of an army of lookouts.

But to reduce the risk of being found, it's the same thing you should poke a hole in the surveillance net.

Because the enemy is building us a surveillance network full of holes, there is no hand in not using this.

Some of these holes are particularly easy to use......

"Right here."

That said, I pointed to one point on the map I had brought.

The place I pointed is part of a river that separates the Kingdom of Jesus from the Cyhil Empire.

"The river... the prospects are too good to be easy to find? Up the river, no obstructions, right?

"If the enemy is properly wearing a security net, you're right, but apparently the enemy is off guard. Stand tall and cross, no one will find you '

"No, you're a much crude siege net..."

"Oh. That's proof the Demons aren't putting their power against this territory."

Crossing the river is easy for us, but chanting magic somehow doesn't have the magic we can use to cross the river.

For this reason it seems Theory is the one in today's world where the enemy basically creates a vigilance net as something that doesn't cross the river.

It seems that the vigilance net by the Cyhil Empire also follows its Theory, and the river's protection was very thin.

Of course, there's a watchful magic reaction in the shallow waters that you can walk across, but the deep rivers are mostly no-guards.

If there is no chanting magic, then even the way the vigilance net is assembled will change.

If the Demons had valued this land, they might have taught about it... but for the Demons, this would be a land not worth protecting.

I can't find any traps of the size that would intercept the army, or maybe I was going to throw every piece of this land into a pawn at times of need.

With that in mind, we headed to the river.

"Wow, you're so alert..."

"I can't see anyone at all seeing a magic reaction up to a kilometer away..."

'It's easy to cross and it's quite a thing.... but this river looks like it could use a lot'

The river separating the Kingdom of Eis from the Cyhil Empire was about ten meters deep.

If it's this deep, it's just a river that has a good use for it.

"Various?"

'Oh.... for example, this or something'

So I dived into the river using magic.

And pull what was at the bottom of the river up to the surface.

'It... What is it? It looks like it has some kind of magic prop on it......'

What I pulled from the bottom of the river was a big metal box.

Size is enough for a human to fit ten.

Seems like a sturdy build after a fairly new one, with few noticeable scratches, but only a few missing corners.

"Almost certainly, it's a box used to transport example dolls"

"Transporting dolls?

'Oh. Probably put about ten dolls in this box and flushed them down the river. The magic props that come with it are to guide you so that the box doesn't go to strange places'

That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna take out the magic prop that was attached to the corner of the box and show it to Lurii.

Lurii has also learned a lot about the magic props, so if this is how it works, you should know what it is just by looking at it.

"... the basic configuration seems to be a normal power device... but the directional designation is special. Am I receiving instructions from another demon prop?

"Oh. The magic wiring there, it's connected here. Maybe at the same time you arrived, you blew that part away with some small-scale explosion magic or something '

As I said, what I pointed to was the missing spot in the corner of the box.

Perhaps it is no coincidence that this place is missing.

If we find out what instructions the magic props for directional modification give, we'll know where they're shipping the dolls from.

Conversely, if only we could cover up the magic props there, we wouldn't find out where we flushed the doll from in the river.

The river is branched, so there will be as many places as there is to flush this box.

The river is not sweet enough to find the source of the doll simply by going upstream.

"Ah... could that be?

As I watched the box, Lurii shouted like that and dived into the river.

And I pick something up from the bottom of the river and come back.

"There was!

Lurii screams happily as she magically dries her wet clothes.

What was in its hand was a small piece of demon stone.
