Episode 89: Atrea's Spiritual Beast

Lynn and Atrea both looked at each other with their eyes round.

"It's not Lynn. What are you doing in there?"

"Atrea. Why are you floating in the sky?

"I'm going on a business trip." Sailing Season. "

"" Season of Sailing "?

"That's right. The season when an airship cruising the continent of Retoggia sails from the tower once a year"

Say so or no. A bunch of people in white robes come down from above and pass behind Atrea.

They use their respective flying magic to descend downstairs without waving aside to Lynn and Atrea.

At the same time, Lynn's feet shake with vibration.

Looking down as Lynn clings to the wall, it was just around the 50th floor place, probably where the airship was about to fly out of Alfrid.

"An airship. You're not getting in on that one from here?

"Yes, I am about to embark on an airship to Rados. The Wizard, who belongs to more than 500 floors, can board the airship for free. That's good."

"Over 500 floors...... does that mean you're a member of the council after all?

"Hmm, a little different, I guess"

"Atrea!"

Suddenly, I heard a voice calling her.

When Lynn looked at the voice, there was a three-white-eyed young man in a robe as white as Atrea.

His power showed that Lynn was quite powerful at a glance.

"What are you guzzling about? This assignment. You have to be there to quell the volcanic spirit."

"Wait a minute, Falsaras. I'm talking to a kid I know."

Youth, contrary to what happened to Falsalas, Atrea continued to talk to Lynn as if nothing had happened.

"That's right, Lynn, it's a hundred levels up there. You're still a college magician. You can't go up to the hundredth floor."

Atrea said in a way that cautioned the neighbor's kids.

"I was framed by a 200-floor class magician named Luciola. I was brought an extraordinary guild for visiting a grave I knew, but it was a trap. Luciola managed to repel him, but he said he was lost in her maze. So if you're relying on the light of the ring to avoid dangerous paths, here you are..."

"Hmm. That's right. That's tough. Good luck, then."

That being said, Atrea tries to go back on her heels.

Wait, wait, wait.

When Lynn said so, Atrea honestly stopped on the spot.

"I can't get out of Luciola's labyrinth. I'm out of line with my friends. I'd like to return to Alfld somehow, but... I don't know how."

"Hmm. It's the mountains I want to help you with... but you can't fly, can you? I'm busy too."

"Don't say that, please. There's no more magic."

"What a template labyrinth is the labyrinth put out by the demon conductor of the 200th floor class. I have to do something about it myself. We must go to the top of the tower."

"I said that ~"

Lynn makes a weak noise.

Atrea sighed when she saw how it was going.

"You can't help it. It's special this time."

"Hey, Atrea. If we don't hurry, the airship will accelerate. Embarking on an accelerated airship is a tricky move for us. We have to go fast."

It is said that Falsaras is in a frustrating condition.

"Yes, sir. Wait a little longer. Sekichi." Summoning Magic ". Hey, Cheelyn!

From there, when Atrea draws a magic formation in the air, a deer torso, a dragon's face, a horse's hoof on three horns, a cow's tail, and a beast appears covered in watery scales throughout her body.

Lynn blinked at the divinity of the beast.

"Cheelyn, help him with Lynn"

"Yes, sir."

Cheelin can't help but put her under Lynn's feet.

"Is this... your warcraft?

"I guess it's a little different from the Warcraft. It's called a spiritual beast. A creature between the Warcraft and the Spirit. Chillin is much like the Spirit, so you can use it to slip through the labyrinth and scout anywhere. Bye."

"Atrea. Thanks"

"Lynn, you can't get where you want to be with all the safe roads. Once in a while, follow a dangerous path."

After giving Lynn a hint, Atrea descends toward the airship with Falsaras.

"Hey. What the hell is that guy? You know the college magician?

Falsaras spoke to Atrea to question her as she fell.

"It's called Lynn. She's funny. He said he was going to the top of the tower."

"... that's an easy one. Is it better than that? Deposit the spiritual beast with him or something. What would you do if I gave you this assignment?

"It's okay."

"Don't go too far on the diagram. That it is the Council that is guaranteeing the status of 'The Witch of the Great Spirit'. I guess I didn't forget."

"You are the one. I don't think you'll ever be a councilman."

"What. Whoa."

Atrea shakes it off and attaches it to the airship before Farsalas finishes it all.

Then use magic to enter the ship.

Atrea turned to Lynn only once before entering the ship. Only for a few moments so that no one will notice.

Even Lynn stood up and watched as Atrea grew smaller and smaller.

Eventually she gets so small that she doesn't know the outline.

A little after Atrea and Farsalas went inside, the airship accelerated and flew to the other side of the horizon.

Theo and the others were back on the road under Seleka's guidance.

When Theo asked about the situation, she offered a guide to Alfrid.

Theo and the others also figured out that she was not the enemy and decided to ask for help.

Seleka takes a glimpse of Theo.

(He's the kid from the one who painted the magic formation in the factory. Isn't the other quiet looking kid here?)

Yuven had his suspicious eyes on her as she walked a little behind Seleka.

I didn't trust Seleka yet.

"Hey. You're a senior nobleman, aren't you? Why are you here?

"We can collect the fog of the Inevitable here. I need it for the magic prop material I'm developing right now... whoa, here."

Seleka reaches the entrance to the labyrinth where Theo and the others were earlier.

"This is the labyrinth you were talking about. I see. Sure, it's on a medium scale, but there's nothing you can't attack."

"Is that true?

"Oh, this is' Medusa's Labyrinth '. This is a template dungeon that can appear with items. The internal structure is determined."

Seleka said as she touched the wall of the labyrinth.

"Certain conditions need to be fulfilled for a demon conductor to emerge a labyrinth. Be sure to make an entrance and exit no matter how complicated it is first. The next thing you know, let the warcraft that maintains and manages the labyrinth live. And it's about creating the right path not to get caught up in traps and warcraft. There are traps in this labyrinth, but if you follow the right path, you should be able to avoid traps and reach the exit without danger"

"I don't have more time than danger. Alma's symptoms suck. I have to get to the infirmary as soon as possible. We don't have time to clear the labyrinth."

"If you can't make it on foot, you can make a ride."

When Seleka takes the magic seedlings out of her hat, she casts a spell and creates a tree, cutting them with the sword of light to make a round too.

"Mass Magic 'Pressure'"

When she casts a spell, pressure is exerted on Marutai and the center snaps.

That's how the box of trees that allows humans to go right inside was completed.

"Anybody got any iron? I need it to build a wheel."

"I don't have that... Oh, yeah, you had a pot"

Theo takes the pan out of Alma's hat.

Seleka softened the pan with metallurgical magic, then molded it with mass magic and returned it to its original iron to make the wheels.

Stick the bottom of the crate with a thorn on the wheel, and magically reshape and secure the thorn that came out on the other side.

This is how an easy trolley was completed.

"Trolleys don't mean no tracks."

Yuven said.

"The tracks are replaced by light magic"

Seleka shines the ring.

(I can't imitate like Illyweer letting a large number of people walk in the air on a bridge of light. But if it's enough to guide the way of the trolley...)

Seleka's ring shines a ray of light, and the magic formations like the tracks are drawn to the ground.

Light tracks run through the labyrinth.

(This is phase magic that Luciola also used? No, more advanced than that......)

Yuven realized that Seleka's magic formation was more elaborate than Luciola's.

Seleka manipulates the trolley with a cane and puts it on top of the light tracks.

"This will do. After that, you can turn the wheel with mass magic. No matter how much you fly, the light tracks should lead you without derailing."

"You're very kind. How can you get me this far?

I asked Yuven to explore.

"It's between wizards who train in the same tower. Though I take it for granted that the higher magicians lead the lower magicians who are troubled?

(This guy... you serious?)

Yuven stared at Seleka with eyes that looked at natural monuments.

"Lend me the map."

Upon receipt of Theo's map, Seleka also casts a spell and writes' The Labyrinth of Medusa 'and the tracks in the labyrinth, places with traps and warcraft.

"The part with the bat mark is where the warcraft or trap is. Because the rails are laid to avoid them. You can't go anywhere with a trap if you're wrong."

"Thank you, thank you for your help."

"Not a thank you."

"Dear Seleka, It's time."

Said a black robe guy who follows Seleka while trying not to be too conspicuous from earlier.

"I know. Just be careful with the strength of the trolley. Is there anything in this that could use metallurgical magic highly?

"I can use it."

"Right. That's good. Check the clasp part every time it goes a little further. If it's about to break, reinforce it. Don't be too hasty."

"Thank you. I'd really appreciate it. I'm Theo. And you?"

"Seleka......"

"Seleka? Thank you so much. See you next time."

"Um..."

Seleka says something and shuts her mouth.

"No, it's nothing. My people are seriously ill, aren't they? You better get going."

"Oh, bad. Bullshit."

Seleka wanted to ask about Lynn, but now it's not the time, so she stopped.

Theo and the others get in the trolley and go inside the labyrinth.

With the wheeling noise, the trolley with a row continues to be guided by the tracks of light.

Lynn released Cheelyn as she entered the labyrinth again, letting her look inside the labyrinth.

Cheryn returned after scouting as Lynn waited a while.

"How'd it go?

"You can't. There is no such thing as a safe path at all. From this position you will always encounter some kind of trap or warcraft by the time you reach the exit."

"Oh well."

"However, your friends are likely to return safely."

"What? You saw Theo and the others?

"No, but a light track was laid on a safe route in the labyrinth"

"Light tracks?

"Yes. I thought you were probably going to run through the labyrinth on the trolley. He seemed to grasp the full contents of the labyrinth because he was avoiding the trap. Probably got the help of a high-ranking magician."

"Right. So Theo and the others are safe."

"Yes, that would allow us to return to Alfredo by the end of the day."

"Alma is at ease for a moment. Will we be the ones left?"

Lynn spreads the map and asks Cheelyn to bat mark a place with traps and warcraft.

"There are three routes to the elevators returning to Alfrid, each with a warcraft waiting for them. We have Medusa for one, Minotaur for one, and Kimyra for one."

"Kimaira's the only one who's ever fought in it."

(Kimyra and Cerberus could also manage to win with the backing of Mr. Ilywia and Yuven. I wonder if I can win alone)

"Hey Cheelyn. Which one of them is the strongest?

"It's Medusa. She's a seemingly human woman, but a troublesome warcraft with jewel-like eyes, snake hair, bronze arms and golden feathers on her back."

"Defeat the Warcraft to get items. What's the most valuable item you can get?

"That's a medusa, too. Medusa's blood resurrects dying humans, the golden wings will be in the ingredients of Tenma Pegasus, and the bronze arms will be in the ingredients of the giant Cruiser All. The eyes can also be an ingredient to create a variety of 'magic shields'. Plus with Medusa's eyes and Minotaur's horns, and Kimyra's nails, you can create a demonic stone that will make 'Medusa's Labyrinth' appear. Today, Medusa's eyes are the most expensive items in the trade price of the Magic Instructors Association."

"I knew you had to commit a danger in order to get high results."

Lynn said she would take a deep breath to make up her mind.

"Cheelin. I wonder if Medusa can be defeated with the sword of Vespe."

"You can take it down. It's just that Medusa's evil eye is dangerous too. It has the effect of turning the seer into stone. To defeat Medusa, you must clamp before you can see each other."

"Okay. Then I'll move on with my eyes meditating. I wonder if you can guide me."

"I understand. Get on your back."

"Give me a signal when Medusa's in range. Because at that moment, we release the sword of light"

Lynn meditated her eyes as she rode on Cheelyn's back.

It goes on for a while, rocked by Cheelin's back with nothing in sight. That was more fear than I ever imagined.

"Cheelin. Not yet, I guess."

"Quiet. It's no surprise when Medusa shows up after this."

Lynn prepared with her mouth shut.

After that came total silence, not hearing anything but the faint footsteps of Cheelin.

It was a little while, but it was time for Lynn to feel it forever.

Since nothing would happen for too long, I thought I'd already been stoned to death.

(Not yet. Not yet?)

If you shine a light on the ring, you will be ready, but the enemy threatened to perceive our presence.

Suddenly, the rains on my chest tremble suddenly.

That was the signal.

Lynn accumulates light in the ring.

"Dear Lynn. Above!"

In response to Cheelyn's voice, Lynn put the ring over her.

Medusa hit from above, and Vespe's sword pierced her head slightly sooner than the snake in her hair bit Lynn's head.
