Then I went through the labyrinth with Cynthia.

"That... when I came forward, I felt a little different...?

Cynthia slipped her neck as she walked.

"Uh-huh. The place you're transferred on the Secret Path is different from one time to the next."

The Secret Way

It is a path where shortcuts can be made, in a labyrinth that can only be attacked one step at a time.

However, it is harder to find and cannot be used by the holders of semi-subsistible forces.

"Really?

"Oh. So it's only natural that it's different from the last time I came"

With that conversation, we discover and move on to the Secret Way (Secret) of the people we are in.

Arrived at…….

"Main road?

It was like a crossing.

Only one narrow road.

I don't know how far down there is. There's a big hole.

I wouldn't be sorry if I fell for free.

"Move on, I guess."

"But such a narrow road...... how do I go about it? It's going to fall..."

Cynthia is peering into the hole.

There is a magical nullity junction stretched across this layer.

It would be a mechanism to use floating magic to keep it from clearing easily.

However, it is possible for me to use floating magic by "disabling" magic... well, don't you need to use wasted magic?

Cynthia, get on your back.

Crouch, I turned my back on her.

"Huh?"

"I'll take Cynthia and move on. Is there a problem?

I don't want you hanging out with me! 'And you're going to refuse?

No... no way. It's harder to imagine Cynthia rejecting me now. But that won't be the case if you're doing something to piss her off. I may have changed my mind.

Tell me for myself. What, when such anxiety is going around in my head,

"Yeah......!

Soon Cynthia got on my back.

Great...... apparently they didn't hate me.

Thousands of years from now, we still don't know the heart of a woman.

After nagging her, I put my foot on a path as thin as thread.

"Wow...... Kurt! What kind of sense of balance are you feeling? I can't believe I can walk in such a thin spot with Cynthia on my back..."

"Rather than a sense of balance, the body (from) is working out all the time."

That's about it before breakfast.

Well, in case you step off a leg, you just need to use floating magic.

There is no danger.

"And Cynthia..."

"What?"

I don't know because she's nagging, but she must have twisted her neck at this time.

"Aren't you a little strong enough to cling to me?

"Really?"

Cynthia is turning her arms around my neck and putting a lot of effort into it.

That conveyed the feel of her soft body.

...... hmm. Is this part of the shoulder blade Cynthia's chest?

It's smaller than Lara's, but it doesn't feel bad... what am I thinking?

"Could you weaken your powers a little bit?

"No."

Guru Cynthia further strengthened her arm.

"Because if you're not sticking strong like this, you're going to fall"

"Oh, yeah? It's gonna be okay. In case that happens, we have every means to help."

"It's not."

For some reason, I heard Cynthia breathing in here.

And

"Cynthia, come on"

And I'm not like her, that's what I said in a cat's voice.

…………

…………

Silence for two.

That's right.

Cynthia is an understated child. I couldn't imagine you saying that.

And when I said "wow," it was a strange bar read.

It would not be because of emotions or anything, but simply because I am not used to saying it.

Cynthia's body temperature went up.

I did feel it.

"Kurt, forget what you just did"

"Oh, oh."

What the hell was that?

How many times more disturbing is Cynthia's behavior right now than walking down this road for me?

But we managed to get to the other side safely.

"Hmm... I feel magic here. If I press here..."

Press a part of the wall.

Then the wall broke down and the road appeared.

The Secret Way.

"Let's move on"

"Ugh, yeah......"

Cynthia hiding her face with her forehead.

Turns out his face is bright red.

... If you're ashamed, I should have told you.

After that, we finally managed to get to the deepest point through the Secret Path several times.

"Lazevara"

Last time I arrived to the room where Lazevara was.

There, like last time, was a lazebella figure kneeling like she was praying on a pedestal.

"... you're finally here"

Razebella rising up.

Hmm? Seems a lot different than when we met before?

"What's up, Lazevara? What's happening? Bagnuba..."

While I remember my doubts, trying to get to the point,

"I'm sorry, but you have to go home"

and Razebala said away.

"What do you mean, Lazevara? You asked me for help."

"That's okay. I can't let you and Bagnuba see each other anyway. I'll take care of it... go home soon"

Icey Lazebella cold words.

Then I felt the unspeakable atmosphere.

"In the meantime, get out of there. I'm guessing there's a Bagnuba sealed in the back."

I'm not going anywhere.

Razebella, who does not move resolutely.

I sighed,

"Then I guess I'll have to force you to get out of here."

and approached her one step closer.

"Phew."

A laugh spills from the razebella.

"I haven't fought you in 1,000 years."

"Right."

A sword appears at Razebella's disposal.

It's not just a loose sword.

It's the divine sword where the sacred dwells.

"Fair enough."

I summon the Devil's Sword into this hand, too.

"It's been a long time since I've crossed blades with you. We'll have fun dancing with the blades."
