Sword of the Philosopher

Princess Emena's journey continues smoothly until tomorrow, when she arrives in King's Landing... According to the information we gathered on a level where we could not be seen, Prince Livina is moving somehow.

"What you're telling the whole town is that it moves a lot."

"This is exactly what the wise man saw."

I agreed to Lizzie's suggestion.

The place of the final battle is off King's Land… Princess Emena receives contact from Prince Livina and goes to the designated place. So it finally takes the form of a final battle. There we are.

"I decided to observe it secretly in the schedule....."

"If you know where it is, why don't you prepare it in advance?

Proposal from Lise. We're going to create a space that we can't find.

"The question is whether it's feasible... Kati, how about it?

"I'm sure it won't be impossible as long as we can make it. However, it is desirable that there is a place where magic accumulates quite a bit, and whether there is a convenient place to choose the place for the final match."

"... Prince Livina hasn't started yet, so we should take a look at it now."

Yes, it is.

With Kati's approval, we went all the way to the finishing touches. It's a short distance from the King's Landing... well, this is not a position that would take days from the King's Landing because of the concern to prevent extra humans from coming.

It's an old temple... an ancient temple that existed in the sense of worshipping nature before the King's City was created. However, this is not an ancient human, but a building built by people after the collapse of the Star God. As the Holy Kingdom of Rebate, it is virtually abandoned as a relic of the past, but it was chosen as a place of final battle to keep people away.

"According to the wizard, there's no shadow."

"Then let's explore the surroundings with magic. Prince Livina will be on the lookout for signs of walking around."

That's true, too. So let Kati take care of the work around here... Eventually, we found out that the bush where the temple is visible, the corner of it, is likely to be well utilized.

"There's magic around the temple... you mean people built buildings in that kind of place?

"Even if you can't perceive magic, there must have been something appealing to the five senses."

Kati works quickly as she answers.

"Yes, this will erase our signs... a form that adds the ability to block magic to Leon's hidden magic."

"Again, you've mastered magic like this."

"I thought it would be convenient to see Leon's. Besides, I wonder if this kind of magic is necessary to create a place where you can rest even in the fight against monsters."

So much for thinking and mastering... that actually helps.

"Leon, the final battle is in front of the temple, right?

"Oh, the temple is pretty broken, and you can't fight in it."

I can see the shattered temple. It is located on a stone staircase, so the interior is not very visible, but it is clear that the exterior is quite damaged.

"From this position, I can see around the temple... but it is possible that Princess Emena will be here when she arrives... but is it okay to use magic?

"There are a lot of people, so it's best to prepare them in advance. You want to camp around here?

"That's right... there's a town nearby, so let's stay there. And if the princes move, they move immediately ahead."

Yes, it is.

We leave the forest once we are ready. Now you can prepare for unforeseen situations. So we're going to rest in town.

"It's nice... I thought the same thing about talking to Princess Emena."

"In this battle, that's how I often feel."

Lizzie says. I mean, it's just a continuum of tension.

"Lou, are you worried?

"No... somehow, this is all I have left. I feel like I can handle it."

Well, let's not be nervous.

Kati is in tune. After such a word, a communication suddenly arrived. From Radi and Sylvie.

Leon, Princess Emena is heading back to the temple tomorrow... What about us?

"I don't mind if I get close. I don't think Radi's magic will help you... but if you're worried, you can wait."

"I see... you're moving?

"Oh, I'm ready."

Well, why don't we get some rest?

"Roger that. Call me in the middle of the night if you need anything."

Okay.

Communication is over. You must be tired from your long journey, and you'll have to work hard if we meet.

"Sylvie and Radi wait for a moment... and we'll deal with it later."

Yes, I understand.

"Nevertheless, I just have to move on without anything....."

"It's a big turning point, right?"

Sofia says. I nodded immediately,

I see. The success of the operation will determine the battle of the Star God and the future of the royalties of the Holy Kingdom of Rebate. "

Princess Emena knows everything and is under pressure… I was worried, but now I have to trust her.

"Let's rest early today and move before sunrise. Prince Livina will probably move that far. We're closer, and if we move when we leave King's Landing, we should be able to get ahead."

My companions nodded at once... the success of the operation depends on the Princess. There is very little we can do.

Rather, we just set the stage well. Then it becomes a matter of royalty... princesses and princes. Her people won't be able to intervene there either.

Princess Emena's mood... and Prince Livina's sincerity - the sun goes down as she walks through her thoughts. And I finally told my buddies to rest, and the night before the finals ended quietly.
