The Spearmaster and the Black Cat

I watched Rebecca as she helped me with the meal.

She bows her head and greets Mr. Sanya's gatekeepers.

Subsequently, Mr. Sanya made a call and aligned the gatekeepers in front of him.

The number of gatekeepers is small.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Rebecca has joined the Kulbur-style gatekeeper since this time. Let's work together."

"" Yes ""

Mr. Sanya moves like a karate mould out of his bosom-like behavior as a teacher.

And the gatekeepers also imitated Sanya's behavior.

At first, a positive fist thrust using left and right fists.

Take advantage of the trunk on the way...

Positive fist thrust, with leg movement added while advancing with arms crossed.

With all the fist-dominated walking, there seems to be less kicking moves.

They seriously continue their archery.

Rebecca also imitates.

It wasn't as funny as it sounded.

But Rebecca is serious.

The attitude of trying to be strong is also a heart to be seen.

- I have to work hard on the spear, too.

Spears don't just swing and poke, either.

Even if you try to take one of your skills, it's deep.

One very different way to grip a finger and a spear.

Accuracy also varies depending on the subtle force applied or subtracted.

It also involves a magical manipulation technique called magic fighting.

Furthermore, muscle and bone movements.

Faint due to skill movements and gaze.

In anticipation of that, I also read the other person's psyche.

Strange martial arts.

Very funny...... I guess I'll do spear training again.

With that in mind, I can finish helping with the meals.

When I saw Vine better, the kids were taunting her ponytail silver hair with pranks.

Vine notices my gaze.

and came to the side away from the children.

"... we've finished the whole meal, shall we go home?"

"Yes. Have you been inspired by your training?

"You know what I mean?"

"Yes."

"Nyao."

The black cat (Lolo) rings on his shoulder.

"That, Lolo. I don't see Ahrey and Huremi..."

"Ng, ha."

Mr. Black Cat (Lolo) was waiting in the fragrance box seat.

He looked me in the face and stood up with a small forefoot, but stopped that movement along the way.

I'm looking down.

Ahead of that gaze were Ahrey and Huremi.

What the hell were you back for?

"Nyaa."

"Nyao."

"You explored? There's a dead leaf on my beard..."

After I took the trash on Cats' beard for you,

All right, let's go home.

and greet Mr Ivanovic before that.

And after a chilling look at Rebecca as she continued her training, she left the mansion.

Walk down the boulevard feeling the sun burning your neck muscles.

We arrive at our main gate across the street.

The moment I came back to the courtyard...

As the black cat on the shoulder (Rollo) shows his belly, he leaps...

Landing on cobblestones.

Run out gently stretching small limbs as they are.

"Nya-na."

and went to the stables where Popobum rested as he rang.

The two Ahrey and Huremi also follow the parental lolo.

The hindsight is no less charming than Lolo.

Balmint also greeted Gaogao screaming.

The nap seems to be over.

An army of cats led by Black Cats (Rollo).

was smelling Balmint & Popobum's butt.

Animals and Warcraft chasing their butts as they make rows in the rear.

Ha, it's an interesting army of butts.

For the time being, I am healed by the zoo space.

And I took a deep breath and looked over into the courtyard.

Two, soil from the exuberant lawn enters sight.

If there was a headstone or something over there......

Makes me feel like some drama...... hey.

And, I remembered an item of gravestone slab I was getting from the crate.

Stop training.

Keep in eye contact with Vine and then take her to the exuberant place in the right corner together.

"... Master, are you looking around the mansion?

"No, no, I thought I'd put a headmark here."

"Oh, my God, whose grave..."

Vine is astonished.

The silver iris rocks.

"Look, in the meantime, it's a tablet rich in magic you've got. I also got an appraisal, stone slab."

"Oh, is that it"

"The bigger stone slab. I could read that tablet letter. And there was a name in that letter that sounded a little... heartfelt. So I thought I'd put that headstone up here."

"Was it..."

Vine gave me an unspoken look.

She's inside......

"Graves are too bad for the courtyard"

Or think, 'It's a custom not in the underground world'.

Anticipating her heart like that......

Operate the Item box.

Take out the stone slab with the magic print engraved on it......

Buried in the soil and installed.

Letters engraved on stone slabs......

Anko Kudo, Kaiko Tatibana, Katie Lombert and John McClane.

Former Japanese, Nanbu.

I prayed in a one-handed Buddhist style.

Then to the outsiders, amen.

Cut a cross with your chest, hands together and pray in a Christian style.

"My lord, that prayer..."

"It's a remnant of the old days."

...... stone slab with this magic print engraved on it.

It's still magical.

So... let's send some magic to try.

While I thought so, I approached the grave.

Extend your left hand to the headstone.

The surface of the rough stone was enchanted with the belly of his fingers, whilst at the same time sending magic to its tombstone.

- For a second.

The letter on the surface of the tomb brings out light.

- Ooh.

"Master, this is"

"... my magic seems to have activated this tablet..."

The light coming out of the letters on the tablet creates a phantom on the ground in front of you.

The phantom, clear but colourful.

Two brunette women, as the name suggests.

One white woman with blonde hair.

I can tell the other one is a white man.

Anko Kudo, Kaiko Tatibana still has dark hair?

Katie Lombert, John McClane is white?

Or locals, I guess.

While continuing to send magic to the grave......

Towards the phantom being projected,

"Are you..."

And I was asking.

"Oh, where am I?

"... transparent in appearance?

A Japanese woman looks at herself as she speaks so.

"You're still trapped in Egward Metal."

"Katie, is this the same labyrinth world? Understand?"

White men are hairy and big.

Difficult looking face.

I call a white woman Katie while pointing a giddy gaze around her.

"Magic detection of - not the New World of the Labyrinth (New World). Looks like we're back on the ground..."

"... oh, you're back!

The sharp gaze of a white man softened.

He also relaxes his cheeks.

He was dangling a weapon reminiscent of a military knife from his waist to a strapped sword belt.

"... the brunette there, the man with beautiful black eyes and the skin tone elves I have never seen are played. I could see a small dragon. But they'll play the black cat nearby too...? You can also see the Riding Warcraft."

The blonde white woman, called Katie, looks around, teasing her shoulders.

She had strange, mesmerizing eyes that seemed to dwell in magic and gather more than one star in color.

They used some kind of skill, the ability of the devil's eye.

Her figure is still transparent... but the Devil's Eye seems to work.

"... Um, excuse me. This is my mansion."

"In the mansion...... certainly large...... courtyard?

A Japanese woman speaking while creating wrinkles between her brows.

I'm circling my gaze around.

In the meantime, let's hear something special.

"… do you mean that you are imprisoned on a magic tablet like this tombstone?"

"Looks like it. Seems to have been enclosed with special magic or skill unleashed by Egward Metal, the King of Demons."

You've come out of Egward Metal, Imo's past, Liliza's past.

So I turn my gaze to the brilliant Vine next door.

"Your husband..."

Vine squeals with her gaze at my new finger.

"Probably."

again gaze back at the transparent ones,

"...... I'll name it for now. My name is Shuya. Next door is Vine."

"Nice to meet you."

Vine also bows her head.

"Hi, as inscribed there, Anko Kudo is the name."

She's an adorable woman with a thin smile in her eyes.

I'm gazing at the anchor part of the grave marker's name.

"I am Kaiko Tatibana"

Long-haired, unlike Mr. Anko, has a slightly irritating expression.

"Katie Lombert"

"John McClane"

They each bowed their heads and named me.

"When it comes to New World, it's the Fifteenth Hierarchy."

When I ask that question, Mr. Keiko moves his mouth, supposedly Japanese, by stopping his rugged face.

"Yeah, yeah. That's exactly what I know. How many adventurers are entering the Fifteenth Hierarchy already on the ground?

"In the meantime, it seems that one of the top clans has crossed ten levels and entered eleven."

"Oh... I'm not sure how long it's been, but the adventurers on the ground have degenerated."

"Keiko, I don't think so... I'm talking right now, he with those black eyes and his skin is blue and white. Elves play my (...) demon eyes? Later, that cute, black cat too..."

Ms. Katie speaks with her long, thin eyes marked by hermetically long lashes as sharp as the tip of a spear.

But only when I saw Lolo, though that look was feminine and soft.

Does she like cats?

"... I don't know if they've been here before..."

Anko shrugs, who was turning from a smile to a surprised face.

"I wasn't there, it would be the first... and then someone who knows the Fifteenth Hierarchy"

Mr. McClane, agreeing with me, has been staring at me.

"A heterogeneous being who plays the Devil's Eye...? Then someone became interested..."

"Yeah, me too"

Mr. Keiko and Mr. Anko nod at each other.

"... I'm just a spear enthusiast. I've just heard about New World. In the first place, what is that New World like?

To that pure question, all the transparent people, including Mr. Anko, had a meaningful and chilling look on their faces and nodded at each other.

Can I talk to you? And it seems to be confirmed...

Abalone breathing?

They have an experienced atmosphere, like the Mamanis.

"… New World, just like on earth, is inhabited by various races, including people, elves and dwarves, with a long history and culture. And there are continents, there are seas, there are skies. On top of that, there are two suns and a moon with stars and a universe. I've never seen a boulder outside the atmosphere, so I don't know. Of course, there were demons and monsters rotting."

Stars in the sky? I didn't know it was really an Earth-like star.

In anticipation, I don't know...

What is the fifteenth hierarchy, a whole different world?

Twenty tiers are as big as there are continents, and there was no sky and stars in that world...

"And I think we've already anticipated, but we're adventurers. The party name is [Club Ice]. It originally came from a big city called Pernette, the labyrinth city on earth."

"What's its name..."

Vine squeaks. Looks like I've heard of it.

I've heard of it too.

And then… these people are parties beyond the ten tiers of the labyrinth, before Kazane.

People from at least a hundred years ago.

Who knows, old, celebrities?

"... Yes, this is the labyrinth city of Pernette"

"It's still on the ground. I'm back."

"I'm stuck in a stone, but it doesn't change..."

"But in someone's luggage or something, it's a lot better than being left alone, isn't it?

From there their discussion ensues.

Do you hear about [Club Ice]?

"… [Club Ice] was working in New World?

"Yeah, I studied a lot in New World. I struggled because the language was different at first, but I used items that I could use to translate so I could work with ease. From there, I've been working in New World forever. Don't tell me you've come down from a long giant labyrinth beyond the basement ten tiers. But... in the midst of a fight to exterminate the demonic Egward metal that was tormenting people in a region by turning them into tombstones, they were attacked by what we were talking about earlier."

Mr. Anko talked to me.

"... that was a disaster. That confined space, is it conscious?

"I don't. If I had, I could think of an infinite amount of time..."

Kaiko, next to Anko, shrugged as he dropped his look on his face.

"That's right...... excuse me. For once, I'll make sure, to this tablet, when I started sending magic, you transparent ladies showed up, do you know what that means?

"... John and Katie, you know what I mean?

"Oh, guess what..."

Mr. John stared at me,

"Your magic may have weakened the magic junction on this tablet."

"Well, reacting to the juncture may mean that the magic of darkness, space-time attributes, is related and acting."

That's what Katie said when she was looking into her skills or demon eyes.

Does my attribute matter?

"I see, if I continue to touch you and give you magic, in time, are you aware that you will be free from that tablet?

"I don't know, but I think it's possible."

Katie with the Devil's Eye speaks with a face that seems confident.

"Lie, if you can get out, I'm happy"

"I did it."

Anko and Kaiko were also happy to hear what Katie had to say.

"Is that true? Katie."

John also scatters his blue pupils, listening.

"Yeah."

I'm sorry I'm impressed...

"I'm sorry, but I have a lot to do too, and I don't always have time for magic like this. Sometimes, sometimes, maybe give you magic? It's about the same interval, okay?"

"Of course. We are at a standstill. I can't say anything, and I'm not going to bind your actions. However, I would love to spend a little time with you... but I would expect your Qing Festival"

"Yeah, you're right. But if you let me go, I'll do anything for you."

That's how Mr. Keiko winks.

Unlike Mr. Anko, the gap may be cute because he had a tough look at first.

"Oh, anything..."

"Master, you shouldn't do that"

Here comes the cute Vine scratch.

"I know, until I got on the joke"

"Oh, I'm not kidding. I'm sorry for Mr. Vine, but I want you to know that's how I feel."

"Ha..."

Vine is dissatisfied, staring at the grave and Mr. Keiko.

Well, he didn't stare otherwise, so he's sympathetic to being locked up.

Do you want to hear this one last time?

"Finally, are you from Earth?

"... yes. Ex-Japanese and ex-American, as you can see. You must be ex-Japanese by name."

Says Katie, who makes a cool impression.

"Yes. So, are you metastasized? Are you a reincarnator?

"Reborn. Everyone grew up in the earth with you now. Naturally, each has a different name in the past, but I've been working on it for a long time."

"Was it"

"... Yep. And, extra help, but be careful if you know there are transferees, reincarnators. Most of the time, he has superior abilities and unknown skills, just like my eyes. It is also possible that he is an apostle of the gods. If you are intoxicated by an infinitely spreading desire of self that combines power, knowledge... because you don't know what you're going to do"

Katie, a white woman with demonic eyes, advised me.

If you are drunk? You're in reflection... that sort of thing.

"... thanks for the advice. I'm aiming to be stronger to fit myself in... but there may indeed be a part of me that is drunk on simple force"

"Yes... I didn't mean you, but if you admit it yourself, you can't say you're drunk. Okay, so you're using your powers on top of that, right? You may be the owner of dangerous and realistic thoughts. I wonder if you like macaberi or something."

Is Katie a former psychoanalyst, not just a demonic eye?

Indeed, I have read the monarchy theory.

"... the danger, indeed, may be so. Politically, if you were an enemy other than a woman, you wouldn't condone it."

"... you mean it. Maybe a little relieved."

I mean it all the time just now.

Like Eva, I don't think that means the owner of Satori...

Let's ask straight.

"Do you have the power to read minds?

"No, it's okay because I don't have it. Because this is my character (...)"

"Even if you had such a power, you wouldn't say it too much on the table."

Yeah, you're right.

I'm gonna sharpen my gaze and look at me, Mr. Katie. Yabeye......

It won't be my fault my spine feels cold.

"... but I don't know if there's anyone besides John who has a cool conversation with Katie..."

Mr. Anko laughs bitterly.

Is it going to be like this within my peers? It felt nasty.

"Now it's time to let go of my hand here. See you next time."

"Ahh."

The moment I let go of my hand, the light that was illuminated from the letters of the grave disappears.

The phantoms we were talking about disappeared at the same time.

"Is this possible?"

Vine, who was keeping silence, speaks.

"Well, it's a strange stone. If we keep sending magic to this tablet... someday it feels like we can free them up"

"Besides, my lord... I'll do whatever you just did."

Yeah, I know.

That's Vine's pretty face.

I felt like I saw a will as a woman in the depths of my smiling eyes.
