"Thank you.
The store, where the taste and visual discomfort was caused by the food terror, was closed by the greeting of the shopkeeper.
Normally, I would have liked to smoke afterwards, but the smell and appearance of my cigarettes were so noticeable that I had to give up on the idea.
Shall we head out then?
"Oh.
With a sense of loneliness in your mouth, you begin to follow Memoria through the hustle and bustle again from the quiet cafe.
After a few minutes of fighting off pickpockets who occasionally wandered in through the chaos of the crowded streets, Memoria stopped in front of a tavern where she thought her destination was.
Naturally, I'd line up next to her.
It may sound strange to say that it could be anywhere, but to my knowledge, it's a fantasy-like tavern.
It's closed, but do we go in the back?
It's not a shame, or maybe it's just the way it is, but it's a strange thing for a bar to be open during the day, with a sign hanging on the door saying it's closed.
No, it's not a problem.
Isn't it locked?
But that's not the point, as Memoria puts her hand on the door and walks into the store without hesitation.
I'm not open yet.
I'm not a customer, so that's not a problem.
What's up with you?
The man's words coming from inside is a natural line for the store.
However, when he saw Memoria who answered his voice, the man put down his polished glass and came out from the counter.
The man is a middle-aged man who could easily blend in if he were on the street we passed by.
The atmosphere is like that, too.
"This is the guy you're talking about?
"Yes, it is.
"We're all going to be treated like freaks all of a sudden.
"When a human is with a demon, it's a question mark in this world, most of them go straight to the gallows.
"In a disturbing way,
My gut tells me that's not all. That's not all.
The man glances once at me and asks Memoria for confirmation.
I can't help but laugh at the words that come from the man listening with a wry smile on his lips.
I'm Jirou Tanaka. I'm a mercenary, Jeero. I'm in your debt for a while.
"This is Bath. I'm a liaison to the owner of this store.
Hold out your right hand and it squeezes back with more force than I expected.
That shows that my instincts are not wrong.
And.
"Sorry to break it to you, but I have a good story and a bad story. Which do you want to hear first?
What's the problem?
I think again.
Things just haven't seemed to work out for you since you came into this world.
Barth asks us in a mysterious tone, as if to tighten his full expression.
It's Memoria's response to that.
And his reply naturally prompted the bad news.
Yeah, I've been hearing some bad news in the kingdom lately, and countries are getting tense in response to it.
"What's the content?
"I don't have any details. But the flow of supplies suggests that they are preparing for war. And I'm told they have Trice in the shadows.
"...... is out of schedule, Jiro.
I guess so. I guess I should get rid of the tourist vibe early, you've been having a rough time since you came here.
The information from the berths, which they describe as troublesome, has forced us to change our original plans.
I'd like to see us go ahead with our original plan of taking it easy and trouble-free: ......
If there is talk that the country is preparing for war, of course you can't do that .
Is that all the bad news?
No. And the Inquisition is circulating. The reason Trice was in the shadows earlier is because we had information that he and the Kingdom guys were together.
The worst.
Unusual .
It's not often that Memoria shows this much disgust as she spits.
So it's a bad idea to be an Inquisitor.
Is it bad?
Yeah, it's so bad that the whole town is going to be suspicious just from the information that he's in town by himself.
What kind of guy?
I am the special agent and enforcer of Trice. You wear multiple masks, your face is a mask, and you live in people's hearts and minds to manipulate them into seducing them, and you judge them by the rights granted to you by your country. He's an executioner.
"Are they parasites or something?
That's the worst.
The guy drinking next to him could be a reaper with a sickle.
That information alone would certainly make it impossible to trust anyone else first.
That's what the mushroom family called cordyceps is like.
Even worse, those parasites are very skilled, and you're in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Totally.
I can only say that I'm really cursed these days.
Things have been really bad since I got here.
"Do you know why the move was made?
"Well, if the Inquisition is going to make a move, we can bet that the top brass at Trice is up to something. But it's so closed off that it's almost insane. It's not easy to get in.
The more I hear about the involvement of the country's top brass in the background, the more troubling it becomes.
From what I've heard, these guys are like a small group of assassins who go against their beliefs and bury inconvenient beings in the dark.
It's unlikely you'll be able to act as if you don't care about them when you hear that they're moving around.
Are we just lucky to have information about the Inquisition?
What's the good news, by the way?
I'm going to have to be careful to keep a low profile from now on.
At least let's hear some good stories so it doesn't get any darker.
How about we talk about how good the food is?
That's a good thing, because it's very depressing to eat bad food all the time, and a good drink is even better.
Don't worry, it's all there.
That one is superimposed, I'll have it today.
Hey, make sure you're dropping money.
...... The air seems to have changed, so it's time to get down to business.
This kind of joke to change the atmosphere is very helpful.
The ventilation with the light-heartedness of the air has changed my mood from depressed to looking forward to this evening's drinks.
What? It's a man's story from here to the store at night.
I'll smoke it and spit it out, okay?
"Oh my God, how can you go out with this guy, brother?
"I fell in love with the pretty one, and I lost.
I'm just joking in the face of Memoria's scornful gaze, and Barth shrugs his shoulders, but his mouth won't stop talking.
You'll be able to find out that Memoria and I are dating, or perhaps she can sense it from the distance and atmosphere, so she turns to look at you to tease you even more, but if you're embarrassed, she'll take advantage of you, so she cowers her shoulders and deals with it with room to spare.
You're smitten, but it's okay. The good news is that a new dungeon has been discovered by the Beastmen confederation. They've found some stuff there.
Maybe that's why they don't ask any more questions, and the conversation goes on.
It was good for us, that's what I call the real pleasure of the other world.
Well, I'm used to going to work, but this is a good time to get information about this side of the world.
Is it okay for me, a human, to go there, Memoria, isn't this a land ruled by beastmen?
It won't be a problem. There will be exchanges, and some adventurers and mercenaries are not settled by vocation. And merchants will go wherever the profits are without telling you. The Beastmen's Union is no exception.
"Of course there are exceptions,
The exception?
It's slavers and criminals.
"Oh.
That certainly would be alarming, even if you're not a beastman.
Unlike Japan, where everything is safe, this is an everyday sight.
The Beastmen's Union has no slavery, so slavers can't get in or out, but some of them want beastmen's slaves to come in.
"You hear that a lot.
"Wow, there's a lot of that in every world.
Some of them are the ones who have more knowledge of such things in Japan, but I was convinced that this was something that happened on Earth as well.
In fact, if you go back in history, there are such stories, so I'm not wrong.
Let's just keep talking about it, because it's too much trouble to correct.
By the way, how are you doing with your identification and transportation?
Yes, I have the guild card for your merchants' guild and Jirou's union card for the mercenaries' guild ready to go. The carriages will be in tomorrow, and then we can use them the day after tomorrow when the horses are rested.
Well, then we'll make arrangements accordingly. You have the room ready to go, don't you?
Yeah, it's my usual back porch. I made sure it was cleaned up.
"Then there is a price sprite berry
"Check it out.
"It will be all right, but please don't step on it.
No, I won't, I'll lose my head.
Memoria takes the black shade bottle out of her bag and gives it to Bath.
Here's a sprite berry I prepared before I crossed into Isreal.
It's certainly a luxury in itself, but it's far too expensive for a carriage or an ID.
Of course, the real deal is something else.
Barth also understands that the bottom of the black bottle is turned happily and with a familiar hand to take out the real life.
A silvery white ore trickles down from the double-bottomed bottom.
Taking it in his hand, Barth looks intently and seriously at it.
A few seconds later, a smile appears on his face.
Sure, I got my fee.
Then the keys to the room.
"Here, please don't lose it.
Yes, Jiro, let's go.
"The walls are thick, but if you're going to do it, make sure it's soundproof!
It's none of your business!
Nimari and Barth checked the object and removed one of the keys from their waistband and released it to the memoria.
It easily fits into Memoria's hand without dropping it.
You will walk into the back of the store to see if she knows where the room is.
After giving the middle finger to the careless bar owner who saw her off, I followed behind her.
Is she always like that?
Yes, it seems to be the same, and this is the base.
After a short walk out the back door of the bar, I arrived at a single-story house located behind the bar.
When I opened the key door and went inside, I couldn't help but be amazed.
It's surprisingly spacious. What's one bedroom or so?
The place is well-equipped for our kind of beings. So, Jiro, what are your plans for the future?
"Oh.
"Will you use it right away?
"Not that way, huh?
You are pleased to find that the room is nicer than you imagined.
Then you go into the room, put your luggage on the shelf, and I thought we would talk about the journey that would have been changed, but the direction Memoria pointed in was the bedroom.
It goes without saying, but you can clearly see what she means.
Why are you and Suela being so aggressive?
We try to take our chances because they're hard to breed with their species.
Thinking back, there were many times when Suela was willing to do this kind of thing.
She didn't let out a sigh, but she did make some gestures to keep her headache at bay.
For God's sake, save that for the evening.
"Okay, now let's talk about the journey.
"I wish you would have been there in the first place.
I'm jealous too, so I know you've only been paying attention to Suela lately, and I've heard about the summer festival.
"Oh, I'll be working hard tonight.
I'll take your word for it. Well, let's get the job done quickly for fun.
If you say so, being a man, I have no choice but to wave the white flag.
Taking her words, Memoria smiled with satisfaction and moved on to her next action.
Once the plans for this evening are decided, you will move to the room in the living room to decide your travel plans.
There, you lay out a map on the table.
As you can see, this continent is quite large.
This continent is as large as the Asian continent.
On the map, the trading town (Sakar) is a little to the east of the map, but it is generally near the center.
It is located in a remote area for each of the countries it encloses, but it is also located in an itchy location.
It can be said that this country would be the first to suffer in the event of a war between the two countries, but the balance is well-balanced and profitable with the perfect deterrence between the countries.
I can't imagine who thought of building this city.
If he hides the trees, it's in the forest; if he hides the gunpowder, it's in the fire, and if he hides the gunpowder, it's in the fire and where the fire surrounds the vacant space, I imagine he's the kind of guy who would gamble to make a profit.
Memoria's white finger runs over such a map.
You'll be able to find out if you've got a good idea of what you're looking for. Therefore, as Mr. Barth says, it would be safer to head south to the Federation.
Sure, if you're thinking about safety.
That finger points to Sakal and quickly moves south to the union.
We can carry out that plan without any major deviation.
That's as far as I can take the information we have so far and put it all together for my lack of knowledge of the land.
But we can go to another country.
Can you do it?
"Yes, the border blockade hasn't happened yet. It's still possible if you just go with the risk and decide if it's possible or not.
"We're not supposed to take any unnecessary risks. If I'm curious and I break it, I'll be blindsided by something.
But Memoria doesn't stop there, and slides a finger on the map to indicate the three remaining countries in a circle as if to present a new criterion.
But I'm not getting into it.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested, but if you ask me if I'm willing to break the rules that I've been told not to do for my own reasons, no.
Then that's just the way it is.
I was going to say let's go south.
But I felt a hair-raisingly powerful magic that interrupted me and I couldn't continue.
It was a spur of the moment move.
You reach for the hilt of the mineral tree and look around.
It's not like the enemy has arrived, or a magical beast has appeared, or the rumored Inquisitor has appeared.
The room is just as peaceful as before, there's no sign of anything outside either.
If that's the case, what was that magic power you felt, even if only for a moment?
"Memoria?
"No way.
I've noticed Memoria staring in the direction of a point while I've been alerted to my surroundings.
You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for, and you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
"Memoria!
This may be the first time I've seen her with no time to spare.
Without saying anything, Memoria runs out of the room as if she were impatient, mouth tightly knotted.
You're going to be able to find out what you can do to help, and you're going to be able to find out what you can do to help.
......
I can only follow her silently.
I don't even know what's going on at present even if I try to talk to her, and Memoria, who might have thought of something, is in no mood to ask what's going on.
Under such circumstances, there is no choice but to think in silence.
A wave of magic that can only be described as powerful, and what can you expect from the mere act of feeling this.
Think.
Is there anything like it?
What would happen to magic power to cause such a huge reaction?
Can you feel the attack magic when it becomes a moment?
It doesn't make sense to me that we don't hear the explosion or impact.
Did it happen so far away that it was imperceptible?
Something feels different.
Mr. Barth.
Oh, I knew you'd notice.
I returned to the tavern I was in before without thinking things through.
Unlike before, this time there's more people here than just a berth.
Does this mean that everyone sensed the unusual magic from earlier and gathered together?
Some of them don't seem to be clerks. They're dressed differently.
So you were right.
"It's in the realm of possibility now, but I can't think of anything else. I'm contacting the back guild and having them take the information.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one who hasn't noticed it, but the story goes on and on.
"Memoria, I'm sorry, what's going on here?
Yes, Jiro-san was the first time.
I thought it was wrong to remain silent here, so I interrupted him, and I thought the timing was right and it was the last thing I would do.
You'll be able to guess that this event is unusual but possible from what Memoria said as if she had just noticed it.
"It is possible that a brave man was summoned.
And it was a possibility that I would understand if I heard it, and one that I would not want to hear if I could.

But Memoria doesn't stop there, and slides a finger on the map to indicate the three remaining countries in a circle as if to present a new criterion.
But I'm not getting into it.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested, but if you ask me if I'm willing to break the rules that I've been told not to do for my own reasons, no.
Then that's just the way it is.
I was going to say let's go south.
But I felt a hair-raisingly powerful magic that interrupted me and I couldn't continue.
It was a spur of the moment move.
You reach for the hilt of the mineral tree and look around.
It's not like the enemy has arrived, or a magical beast has appeared, or the rumored Inquisitor has appeared.
The room is just as peaceful as before, there's no sign of anything outside either.
If that's the case, what was that magic power you felt, even if only for a moment?
"Memoria?
"No way.
I've noticed Memoria staring in the direction of a point while I've been alerted to my surroundings.
You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for, and you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
"Memoria!
This may be the first time I've seen her with no time to spare.
Without saying anything, Memoria runs out of the room as if she were impatient, mouth tightly knotted.
You're going to be able to find out what you can do to help, and you're going to be able to find out what you can do to help.
......
I can only follow her silently.
I don't even know what's going on at present even if I try to talk to her, and Memoria, who might have thought of something, is in no mood to ask what's going on.
Under such circumstances, there is no choice but to think in silence.
A wave of magic that can only be described as powerful, and what can you expect from the mere act of feeling this.
Think.
Is there anything like it?
What would happen to magic power to cause such a huge reaction?
Can you feel the attack magic when it becomes a moment?
It doesn't make sense to me that we don't hear the explosion or impact.
Did it happen so far away that it was imperceptible?
Something feels different.
Mr. Barth.
Oh, I knew you'd notice.
I returned to the tavern I was in before without thinking things through.
Unlike before, this time there's more people here than just a berth.
Does this mean that everyone sensed the unusual magic from earlier and gathered together?
Some of them don't seem to be clerks. They're dressed differently.
So you were right.
"It's in the realm of possibility now, but I can't think of anything else. I'm contacting the back guild and having them take the information.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one who hasn't noticed it, but the story goes on and on.
"Memoria, I'm sorry, what's going on here?
Yes, Jiro-san was the first time.
I thought it was wrong to remain silent here, so I interrupted him, and I thought the timing was right and it was the last thing I would do.
You'll be able to guess that this event is unusual but possible from what Memoria said as if she had just noticed it.
"It is possible that a brave man was summoned.
And it was a possibility that I would understand if I heard it, and one that I would not want to hear if I could.

"Why at this time?
Tanaka Jiro, 28 years old, with a girlfriendHer Suela HendelbergMemory TrisOccupation Dungeon Tester full-timeMagical aptitude 8 general classPost Warriors"Thank you.The store, where the taste and visual discomfort was caused by the food terror, was closed by the greeting of the shopkeeper.Normally, I would have liked to smoke afterwards, but the smell and appearance of my cigarettes were so noticeable that I had to give up on the idea.Shall we head out then?"Oh.With a sense of loneliness in your mouth, you begin to follow Memoria through the hustle and bustle again from the quiet cafe.After a few minutes of fighting off pickpockets who occasionally wandered in through the chaos of the crowded streets, Memoria stopped in front of a tavern where she thought her destination was.Naturally, I'd line up next to her.It may sound strange to say that it could be anywhere, but to my knowledge, it's a fantasy-like tavern.It's closed, but do we go in the back?It's not a shame, or maybe it's just the way it is, but it's a strange thing for a bar to be open during the day, with a sign hanging on the door saying it's closed.No, it's not a problem.Isn't it locked?But that's not the point, as Memoria puts her hand on the door and walks into the store without hesitation.I'm not open yet.I'm not a customer, so that's not a problem.What's up with you?The man's words coming from inside is a natural line for the store.However, when he saw Memoria who answered his voice, the man put down his polished glass and came out from the counter.The man is a middle-aged man who could easily blend in if he were on the street we passed by.The atmosphere is like that, too."This is the guy you're talking about?"Yes, it is."We're all going to be treated like freaks all of a sudden."When a human is with a demon, it's a question mark in this world, most of them go straight to the gallows."In a disturbing way,My gut tells me that's not all. That's not all.The man glances once at me and asks Memoria for confirmation.I can't help but laugh at the words that come from the man listening with a wry smile on his lips.I'm Jirou Tanaka. I'm a mercenary, Jeero. I'm in your debt for a while."This is Bath. I'm a liaison to the owner of this store.Hold out your right hand and it squeezes back with more force than I expected.That shows that my instincts are not wrong.And."Sorry to break it to you, but I have a good story and a bad story. Which do you want to hear first?What's the problem?I think again.Things just haven't seemed to work out for you since you came into this world.Barth asks us in a mysterious tone, as if to tighten his full expression.It's Memoria's response to that.And his reply naturally prompted the bad news.Yeah, I've been hearing some bad news in the kingdom lately, and countries are getting tense in response to it."What's the content?"I don't have any details. But the flow of supplies suggests that they are preparing for war. And I'm told they have Trice in the shadows."...... is out of schedule, Jiro.I guess so. I guess I should get rid of the tourist vibe early, you've been having a rough time since you came here.The information from the berths, which they describe as troublesome, has forced us to change our original plans.I'd like to see us go ahead with our original plan of taking it easy and trouble-free: ......If there is talk that the country is preparing for war, of course you can't do that .Is that all the bad news?No. And the Inquisition is circulating. The reason Trice was in the shadows earlier is because we had information that he and the Kingdom guys were together.The worst.Unusual .It's not often that Memoria shows this much disgust as she spits.So it's a bad idea to be an Inquisitor.Is it bad?Yeah, it's so bad that the whole town is going to be suspicious just from the information that he's in town by himself.What kind of guy?I am the special agent and enforcer of Trice. You wear multiple masks, your face is a mask, and you live in people's hearts and minds to manipulate them into seducing them, and you judge them by the rights granted to you by your country. He's an executioner."Are they parasites or something?That's the worst.The guy drinking next to him could be a reaper with a sickle.That information alone would certainly make it impossible to trust anyone else first.That's what the mushroom family called cordyceps is like.Even worse, those parasites are very skilled, and you're in the wrong place at the wrong time.Totally.I can only say that I'm really cursed these days.Things have been really bad since I got here."Do you know why the move was made?"Well, if the Inquisition is going to make a move, we can bet that the top brass at Trice is up to something. But it's so closed off that it's almost insane. It's not easy to get in.The more I hear about the involvement of the country's top brass in the background, the more troubling it becomes.From what I've heard, these guys are like a small group of assassins who go against their beliefs and bury inconvenient beings in the dark.It's unlikely you'll be able to act as if you don't care about them when you hear that they're moving around.Are we just lucky to have information about the Inquisition?What's the good news, by the way?I'm going to have to be careful to keep a low profile from now on.At least let's hear some good stories so it doesn't get any darker.How about we talk about how good the food is?That's a good thing, because it's very depressing to eat bad food all the time, and a good drink is even better.Don't worry, it's all there.That one is superimposed, I'll have it today.Hey, make sure you're dropping money....... The air seems to have changed, so it's time to get down to business.This kind of joke to change the atmosphere is very helpful.The ventilation with the light-heartedness of the air has changed my mood from depressed to looking forward to this evening's drinks.What? It's a man's story from here to the store at night.I'll smoke it and spit it out, okay?"Oh my God, how can you go out with this guy, brother?"I fell in love with the pretty one, and I lost.I'm just joking in the face of Memoria's scornful gaze, and Barth shrugs his shoulders, but his mouth won't stop talking.You'll be able to find out that Memoria and I are dating, or perhaps she can sense it from the distance and atmosphere, so she turns to look at you to tease you even more, but if you're embarrassed, she'll take advantage of you, so she cowers her shoulders and deals with it with room to spare.You're smitten, but it's okay. The good news is that a new dungeon has been discovered by the Beastmen confederation. They've found some stuff there.Maybe that's why they don't ask any more questions, and the conversation goes on.It was good for us, that's what I call the real pleasure of the other world.Well, I'm used to going to work, but this is a good time to get information about this side of the world.Is it okay for me, a human, to go there, Memoria, isn't this a land ruled by beastmen?It won't be a problem. There will be exchanges, and some adventurers and mercenaries are not settled by vocation. And merchants will go wherever the profits are without telling you. The Beastmen's Union is no exception."Of course there are exceptions,The exception?It's slavers and criminals."Oh.That certainly would be alarming, even if you're not a beastman.Unlike Japan, where everything is safe, this is an everyday sight.The Beastmen's Union has no slavery, so slavers can't get in or out, but some of them want beastmen's slaves to come in."You hear that a lot."Wow, there's a lot of that in every world.Some of them are the ones who have more knowledge of such things in Japan, but I was convinced that this was something that happened on Earth as well.In fact, if you go back in history, there are such stories, so I'm not wrong.Let's just keep talking about it, because it's too much trouble to correct.By the way, how are you doing with your identification and transportation?Yes, I have the guild card for your merchants' guild and Jirou's union card for the mercenaries' guild ready to go. The carriages will be in tomorrow, and then we can use them the day after tomorrow when the horses are rested.Well, then we'll make arrangements accordingly. You have the room ready to go, don't you?Yeah, it's my usual back porch. I made sure it was cleaned up."Then there is a price sprite berry"Check it out."It will be all right, but please don't step on it.No, I won't, I'll lose my head.Memoria takes the black shade bottle out of her bag and gives it to Bath.Here's a sprite berry I prepared before I crossed into Isreal.It's certainly a luxury in itself, but it's far too expensive for a carriage or an ID.Of course, the real deal is something else.Barth also understands that the bottom of the black bottle is turned happily and with a familiar hand to take out the real life.A silvery white ore trickles down from the double-bottomed bottom.Taking it in his hand, Barth looks intently and seriously at it.A few seconds later, a smile appears on his face.Sure, I got my fee.Then the keys to the room."Here, please don't lose it.Yes, Jiro, let's go."The walls are thick, but if you're going to do it, make sure it's soundproof!It's none of your business!Nimari and Barth checked the object and removed one of the keys from their waistband and released it to the memoria.It easily fits into Memoria's hand without dropping it.You will walk into the back of the store to see if she knows where the room is.After giving the middle finger to the careless bar owner who saw her off, I followed behind her.Is she always like that?Yes, it seems to be the same, and this is the base.After a short walk out the back door of the bar, I arrived at a single-story house located behind the bar.When I opened the key door and went inside, I couldn't help but be amazed.It's surprisingly spacious. What's one bedroom or so?The place is well-equipped for our kind of beings. So, Jiro, what are your plans for the future?"Oh."Will you use it right away?"Not that way, huh?You are pleased to find that the room is nicer than you imagined.Then you go into the room, put your luggage on the shelf, and I thought we would talk about the journey that would have been changed, but the direction Memoria pointed in was the bedroom.It goes without saying, but you can clearly see what she means.Why are you and Suela being so aggressive?We try to take our chances because they're hard to breed with their species.Thinking back, there were many times when Suela was willing to do this kind of thing.She didn't let out a sigh, but she did make some gestures to keep her headache at bay.For God's sake, save that for the evening."Okay, now let's talk about the journey."I wish you would have been there in the first place.I'm jealous too, so I know you've only been paying attention to Suela lately, and I've heard about the summer festival."Oh, I'll be working hard tonight.I'll take your word for it. Well, let's get the job done quickly for fun.If you say so, being a man, I have no choice but to wave the white flag.Taking her words, Memoria smiled with satisfaction and moved on to her next action.Once the plans for this evening are decided, you will move to the room in the living room to decide your travel plans.There, you lay out a map on the table.As you can see, this continent is quite large.This continent is as large as the Asian continent.On the map, the trading town Sakar is a little to the east of the map, but it is generally near the center.It is located in a remote area for each of the countries it encloses, but it is also located in an itchy location.It can be said that this country would be the first to suffer in the event of a war between the two countries, but the balance is well-balanced and profitable with the perfect deterrence between the countries.I can't imagine who thought of building this city.If he hides the trees, it's in the forest; if he hides the gunpowder, it's in the fire, and if he hides the gunpowder, it's in the fire and where the fire surrounds the vacant space, I imagine he's the kind of guy who would gamble to make a profit.Memoria's white finger runs over such a map.You'll be able to find out if you've got a good idea of what you're looking for. Therefore, as Mr. Barth says, it would be safer to head south to the Federation.Sure, if you're thinking about safety.That finger points to Sakal and quickly moves south to the union.We can carry out that plan without any major deviation.That's as far as I can take the information we have so far and put it all together for my lack of knowledge of the land.But we can go to another country.Can you do it?"Yes, the border blockade hasn't happened yet. It's still possible if you just go with the risk and decide if it's possible or not."We're not supposed to take any unnecessary risks. If I'm curious and I break it, I'll be blindsided by something.But Memoria doesn't stop there, and slides a finger on the map to indicate the three remaining countries in a circle as if to present a new criterion.But I'm not getting into it.I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested, but if you ask me if I'm willing to break the rules that I've been told not to do for my own reasons, no.Then that's just the way it is.I was going to say let's go south.But I felt a hair-raisingly powerful magic that interrupted me and I couldn't continue.It was a spur of the moment move.You reach for the hilt of the mineral tree and look around.It's not like the enemy has arrived, or a magical beast has appeared, or the rumored Inquisitor has appeared.The room is just as peaceful as before, there's no sign of anything outside either.If that's the case, what was that magic power you felt, even if only for a moment?"Memoria?"No way.I've noticed Memoria staring in the direction of a point while I've been alerted to my surroundings.You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for, and you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for."Memoria!This may be the first time I've seen her with no time to spare.Without saying anything, Memoria runs out of the room as if she were impatient, mouth tightly knotted.You're going to be able to find out what you can do to help, and you're going to be able to find out what you can do to help.......I can only follow her silently.I don't even know what's going on at present even if I try to talk to her, and Memoria, who might have thought of something, is in no mood to ask what's going on.Under such circumstances, there is no choice but to think in silence.A wave of magic that can only be described as powerful, and what can you expect from the mere act of feeling this.Think.Is there anything like it?What would happen to magic power to cause such a huge reaction?Can you feel the attack magic when it becomes a moment?It doesn't make sense to me that we don't hear the explosion or impact.Did it happen so far away that it was imperceptible?Something feels different.Mr. Barth.Oh, I knew you'd notice.I returned to the tavern I was in before without thinking things through.Unlike before, this time there's more people here than just a berth.Does this mean that everyone sensed the unusual magic from earlier and gathered together?Some of them don't seem to be clerks.
