"Er... this is Gil 'as..."

"Gil 'as..."

Lurii and Illis agreed to my words.

After all, it seems that it is not a mistake to see the magic reaction.

Well, you can't miss that characteristic magic reaction.

"... All right, let's just make sure Gilás doesn't find us"

"What, are you hiding?

"Oh. It's going to be a hassle. … I want to move inconspicuously"

If this was the Union of Radiniers, it wouldn't be strange to have Gilás.

But... this is the kingdom of Ace.

When Gilás comes all the way to another country, there must be some reason.

Probably felt signs of the strong or something.

Gilás is a combat maniac.

If we meet, we will undoubtedly be challenged to fight first.

Usually, that's fine...... Fighting Gil 'as in the present situation can make a scene and spread all around you.

I don't know where in the city there are demons and their men.

Now, I want to move discreetly.

"Sure, you'll stand out when Gilás comes..."

"Oh. So let's scout the city while avoiding Gilás"

That's how I started walking around the city.

Let's start by looking for a 'sealed coffin'.

The fact that we don't know where the "sealed coffin" is doesn't help us get it.

"... the place of the sword is definitely in the Lordship Hall."

When the sun completely dropped and the area darkened.

I was going back to the inn and talking to the Luriis.

"Lordship Hall, you must have been suspicious."

Near the center of this city, there was a hall of lords.

In every city, such as the Lords' Palace… what was characteristic was its interior.

"It's such a big house, I can't believe there's nobody but the entrance... it's unnatural!

That's right.

The Lordship Hall was deserted outside the entrance.

Of course, not abandoned houses, etc.

When it got dark, the lights were on, and there were signs of using the building.

There seemed to be quite a few people in and out of the compartment near the entrance.

The Lordship Hall also serves like a kind of bureau.

It is obviously unnatural not to be used except at the entrance.

Under normal circumstances, I can't think of any reason not to use anything other than the entrance... given the information I got at the second school, the reason is speculative.

"I guess you don't want people inside. … for example, if something were stolen, you would be in trouble."

"After all, is that right..."

"Oh.... it was covered up, but only a little bit in the air, mixed with demonic magic. I'm pretty sure the Demons control the Lordship Hall."

Ancient magic also has magic that manipulates human senses.

For example, the magic of unconsciously holding the feeling of 'I don't want to go into the back room' to someone who comes to the Lordship Hall?

That's magic, commonly known as' paying people '.

"That means the sword is in that hall...?

"Probably. With Active Detection, I can see the location in one shot... even if I don't use it, I can somehow predict the location"

That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna spread the drawings of the Lordship Hall on my desk.

If you look at the drawings, there is some speculation as to where the building is structured to focus on.

"This is the drawing of the Lords' Palace."

"Wow, that's a precise drawing...... Where did you get this?

"I guessed from the magic I saw in Passive Detection. … so some places are unclear"

That said, I pointed to the section near the center of the house.

There wasn't much magic from Passive Detection around there because of the distance I could get through.

If it's a magic reaction that's as big as a demon, it's not that close... but when it comes to detecting trace amounts of magic contained in a wall stone or something, it needs to be pretty close.

"Ma, I just saw the magic, can you pull a drawing like this!?

"Oh.... don't you know how Lurii reacts to the magic on the wall there, too?

That's why I pointed to the Inn Wall.

The walls of this inn are made of trees that contain relatively much magic.

Compared to stones, it is an easy-to-grasp magic reaction with 'passive detection'.

"Sure, I know... you just know where one wall is, don't you?

"If you know where one wall is, you know two, and if you know two, you know even ten.... I just detected one at a time and dropped it into the drawing"

As I say, I color some of the drawings.

The colored compartment is the compartment in which the entry of persons can be confirmed.

"... this space is obviously suspicious, isn't it?

Finished coloring the map, I pointed to a single space, surrounded by walls.

The space was not connected to any other room… completely, surrounded by walls.
