Welcome to Japan, Mr. Elf.
Lesson 237: What the Ancients Left Behind
"Lady Hakam, Lady Aja, this way."
It was the soldiers of the Andalusite squad, led by Doula, who had spoken so loudly.
The treasure trove is filled with roaring treasures, and a glow of demonic stones. Touching his hand, he said, "How many mansions will this make?" and the commander, and the magician, looked so frightened.
This ancient labyrinth attack was also a measure to revitalize the Alirai nation if the former were corrected. They don't know, but utilities like pyramid architecture would be effective in ancient times. Because the conditions are in place to obtain economic benefits such as securing workers, developing technology, and improving diplomatic and governance skills.
"This is...!
"Stripping demons...... no is it real? I didn't know that ancient technology was still moving."
And before I was guided, a glowing passage awaited me in blue and white. I can see that decorating the left and right is a real demon, without mistake, and brilliantly controlled.
Most of them are bipedal beasts, each with a score in his hand. Then maybe it's the right kind for the servant.
and while walking down an unpopular aisle, the two push silently. If we poke at this demonic control technology, we could be the champions of the continent. They both gave a "better stop" look when they looked at each other properly.
"What, that face? You won't be the only one selling that big body. Say it if you want to."
"Then let me tell you something. The ancients who managed this facility were much better at witchcraft than we were. That's what it looks like."
At the end of his gaze, there was a wall that cracked one side. It's as if a giant dragon went wild and was torn apart by its nails.
If you look at the debris nearby, it doesn't seem like it's an old thing. But there's no body, and it seems to have disappeared or melted somewhere.
"... the heads of the thieves who were pulling it off."
"Probably. Someone talked to me here."
By "thief" they mean a spider sent from Gedover country. He was sifting wildly in the second tier, taking advantage of the characteristic of not being attacked by demons. Enough to think that we should interrupt the labyrinth attack.
"There was one person, terribly armed. We thought we had a terrible leader, but we didn't know he was dead at their base."
"Did you buy some anger? Look at the wounds on the wall. It's like after a giant dragon's claw."
Hakam shrugged his neck at the words. It was a small attitude, such as ours, that if we had a little bad luck, we would be trampled.
Each human has a vessel of its own size. Without knowing how much you can control, it would make sense to smash every vessel if you reached for the big one.
"If I may, I hope we remain untouched by disaster."
"I agree. If you let it go, you'll die in decades, but you can get your hands on every mess."
Kuwabara Kuwabara, and the old man shrugged his neck and showed it the same way.
The room, written Demon Control Room, was brilliantly destroyed of things. Was it even a blast in the center, and there were chairs and desks in the corners of the room that turned into wreckage? Not only that, but there are tear marks on the walls and ceilings, and I can ask if the battle must have begun here.
And there was a familiar face among the soldiers conducting the investigation.
"Doula, I think you found what you wanted."
"Lady Hakam, Lady Aja, well done. Come here. I don't know what it is, so I'm trying not to set fire to it and it's dark..."
Of course it doesn't matter, Hakam nods to Eagle Deep.
Then he looked around and walked over to the red-haired woman.
"I saw you on the road, but it didn't seem like a lined door. It was strictly concealed and also controlled by witchcraft. How did you open it?"
"Use this key. It's a deposit from the Amesists, and they said they found it when they defeated the demon."
That's the answer, pinch the key at your fingertips and show it. The way it emits phosphorescence in blue and white probably leaves some kind of magic behind.
They don't know, but this is what they got when they defeated the Eglinian lizard-shaped demon. Eglini was qualified to enter every part of the labyrinth, with the characteristic of changing the terrain and structure… but they are the ones they have never seen, so naturally they know nothing.
The old magician, looking at the key, was immediately taken away from his interest in something different. Return the key and walk out to the center of the room fluttering.
There was a whole statue ahead of me looking up. It is partitioned by a conical transparent wall and seems to be jammed with water inside. Its silver (platinum) coloured female statues drifted into the water with a glow around her.
"Hmm! An ancient technique of controlling demons!
"Sounds like a sturdy build. So much room had been destroyed, but not as a scratch."
Earlier inquiry, "what you want" is this.
Ancient technique of freely serving demons. But it is also the culprit of the annihilation of the ancients without being able to make effective use of it.
"Dear Aja, do you have any idea what this looks like?
"I don't know more about boulders... but it's scary and pure magic. This is never the case with people and demons. Probably a replica of something. This is how I copy the power of controlling demons."
Aja told me that when I pulled my emotions out of people softly, it would be such a sign (aura). Then again, this is not a normal substitute or anything like that.
Doula shrugged with a soothing look as she looked up at the woman's statue.
"But I, I'm relieved. Because I was lucky I didn't have to use this. I thought of it as a trump card to the Demon Army, but I feel scared when I'm around."
"That's good. It's the right thing to do as a person. We trembled before we entered the room."
"Oh, definitely. But correctly, the royals reacted when they found out."
Er, the three of them all looked disgusted.
People who are obsessed with power and want power every time. I almost know what the end will be.
"If it doesn't open without a key, it's convenient. We'll cover it up before the investigation team gets here."
"Okay, let's have the soldiers pull up right away, too. So, Master Hakam, this is the first time we've heard about the investigation team, but what are we doing here?
"Oh, I would have defeated the Demon Army, besides breaking through the third tier. They're coming to watch if we steal the treasure. There are people who want to get a handle on it easily. What do you say, you want a welcome?
No, not at all. As he said, Doula's eyes looked up at the ceiling as if they were frightened.
People who come after they're safe are not welcome even if they're wrong. But for Hakam's flabby and leaky "The Royal Family is Coming" info... it makes me want to make a rough welcome.
After the room, Doula looked back to the statue just once.
Something left over from ancient times has a face that makes femininity and childhood live together, and you can sense a stone statue but a strange presence. What seems unusual is that the limbs and head are cut off from the roots? Each was drifting underwater, fingertips grabbing a book.
- Some imitation (replica).
I wonder who the beings upon whom it originated were.
But as I looked up at the statue, it looked like I'd seen it somewhere. It's a technology left over from the ancients, and you don't even know who they are.
◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
Desert area with imminent darkness.
The sky stained with bloody colour, and the horizon was covered with smoke whether even a sandstorm was imminent.
Drinking very much water from the water bottle, the man looks at it.
"It's about time you came soon. I rushed for reinforcements, but I'll see how many demons I hear."
"But I also hear that those who guarded the ancient labyrinth drove them back. If they lose about two squadrons, they won't even have Prince Walth."
"Hmm? I don't know, lightning knight. I was motivated by the lack of much affordability, and I may have turned back. They say there are women and children, even old men."
A creeping laugh echoed around me. No one can believe it. From the crowd of tens of thousands of monsters, you can protect them with just about two hundred soldiers.
Behind them also, in the desert hills, countless soldiers hide themselves in ways that make use of the terrain. It was buried halfway into the sand like a soldier from the land of sand, and clothes wrapped from head to body were the same color.
They all feel the tingling air before the showdown, and they can't afford to slap a light mouth like they did.
"Whoa, what is that? Looks like they're coming this way..."
"Is it a decree? I'll listen to you."
I don't think I'm wearing metal armor when I slip down the sand. They are specially machined to cover only the main points and not reflect light.
He is the one known as the katana of the kingdom. He is in charge of protecting the royal body, and only those recognized as one thousand will be chosen.
There was no first chance to see SS (Royal Guard) on the battlefield, and everyone in the soldiers stared hot.
He hears the words from the decree and returns to His Royal Highness the Prince.
Until then, he seemed happy with Prince Walth, but he was exasperated to hear what it was about. He was instructed to form a fact-finding team and immediately head to the ancient labyrinth.
"~ ~ ~......! Keep this strategically good me away from the battlefield!? I can see how you want to crumble our Alirai country!
That being said, it was a few days before he decided to join. As those who have interrupted later, I take it for granted that they will be expelled from the First Prince... and those around them will be secluded.
Their argument was that they were too stoned to withdraw the Demon Army. In other words, it leads to the suspicion that some legacy was found in the ancient labyrinth and used without permission from the kingdom.
There's a problem if a major battle force was being assembled while we were out of touch for a long time. For this reason, we must always investigate for the rule of the country, not for harassment of princes, etc.
Regardless, there was not a lot of desire to get rid of the loud troublemaker somewhere...
Thus a fact-finding team was formed by Prince Walth's chosen elite, which was to be sent abruptly to the ancient labyrinth.
Eventually, at night, the whole desert shone red lotus.
People rumored that it was as if a thunderstorm had arrived.
