When I feel the shadow of Serdra behind the special soldiers, I finish sorting out the information.

At the same time, I receive advice from Rustyala.

''--Kanami, beside!

One of the people at the edge of my vision was holding a firearm and trying to move his fingertips.

I, who have already finished taking countermeasures, utter the name of the magic.

''-- Magic 《Midwinter of the Overcrowded Dimension (Di Overwinter)》''

The magic made available by the return of Yangtaki's magic stone is partially strengthened.

The magic that was once a trump card solves the problem of consumed magic power and shows more power.

The magic that could freeze any place struck one special soldier.

Freezing a firearm to make it dysfunctional, he was afraid of an outburst. So, it was the special soldier's joints that he aimed at. After slowing down the movement of his finger on the trigger to the limit, he added magic.

''-- Magic 《Default Armament Destruction (Armor Break)

It is a new application of magic.

It's difficult to work against opponents with thick magic, but it will distort and destroy the opponent's equipment.

Furthermore, if you combine it with my ”possessions,” it's even possible to replace them with the restraint suits from this world.

The straitjacket I prepared is a special item used to seal a sinner with magical powers, and except for the nose, it is wrapped in curse cloth. It's an object that even the highest class of humanity, the level 20's 'muscle power', can't tear it off, so it would be impossible for the residents of the 'original world' to escape.

The magic has been established.

At the same time, everything ends.

''----?　----, ----- (...) -!

The four men, dressed in restraint suits, rolled on the floor of the room.

Unsure of what had happened, the special soldiers immediately tried to scream.

But they couldn't speak well because they were almost gagged.

It was a moment.

Less than a second after they pointed their guns at him, all of the intruders were out of the fight.

And, unexpectedly, we also got some loot.

In the ”belongings” section, the words ”helmet”, ”assault suit” and ”bulletproof vest” appear.

I'm sure that if you use magic on the radio in the original world, it will expand what you can do.

”Ah--

I was deciding in my head the arrangements for the future.

A moan of pain could be heard from my feet.

When I looked at them, I could see one of the special soldiers gulping and moving his throat.

I realized that he had swallowed something and hurriedly 'gazed' at the four of them.

[Status]

State: poison 1.79--

One special soldier had a 'state defect'.

It turned out that the swallowing was some kind of medicine with immediate effect, and I was more upset than being held at gunpoint, and was forced to use the highest level of dimensional magic.

''--Magic 《Distance Mute》!

Immediately, I thrust a purple arm through the torso of one of them and grope it.

I have experience with this kind of magical surgery. However, I didn't know the lethal dose or anything else, so I sneakily pulled out the contents of the stomach and dumped it on the floor of the room.

I often 'watched' the contents and the man himself, but all I could see was that it was 'state: poison'.

As I thought when I was caught by the 'poison' in the labyrinth, the 'spellcraft' in the translation Yotaki made was surprisingly crude and I couldn't understand the detailed types of it. I don't have time to diagnose it, so I'll cure the 'poison' with the brute force of trying out the recovery-type magic I can use in order, and finally use sacred magic.

''-- Sacred Magic [Infate],''

I cast a spell on the four of them to make them unconscious of their weakened counterparts and take a breath.

The healing is over, but we might want to take a closer look inside their bodies.

A suicide soldier stuffed with bombs is probably a story from a video game or manga. However, in today's Japan, it's hard to imagine a suicide mission like that in a movie.

In the first place, we are monsters to the original world, we are not normal.

Therefore, they too have decided to prepare themselves to be unusual.

”'Monster' (...), huh ......

The eyes I used to look at the 'stealers of reason' such as Arti and Tida, were exactly the same as the eyes I used to look at.

According to the earlier 'gaze', some of these special soldiers had hometown names among them.

I would have preferred to face people with Japanese names in a more peaceful situation.

But obviously they knew my strength and saw me as a 'monster' called 'Aikawa Uzumi, that Aikawa Yotaki's brother'.

There is no mistake.

It's a good thing that the miasma of the ”demon poison” that transforms the limbs is on me, and I have an unconcerned face.

It's not enough for a normal firearm to be a deadly weapon, and with a single glance it can disable four people.

You'll be able to find out if you are lucky enough to be able to strike a surprise blow, and even instantly recover from the damage of instant death.

It's really too unreasonable 'monster', I think to myself.

''--Kanami!　You have to use a dimension!

However, that thought was cut off in the middle.

Rastiara's 'voice' made me turn my attention to the next.

'Look at everyone!　They're not doing anything bad, but they're being overwhelmed!

When I guessed that it was about the people living here, I had finished deploying the 《Dimension》 to the entire underground space.

A sense of magic was added to my head and information was instantly packed in.

The basement of the cathedral is basically an intricate maze, with stairs and passageways stretching out to connect the large number of rooms that are scattered irregularly.

In each room, the 'Jewelcrus' and beastmen, who are difficult to work in on the ground, are working or sleeping, but the black-clad special forces I mentioned earlier have invaded there.

''I'm not the only one you're after ......?　We need to help Rastiara's sisters soon: ......!

'No, Kanami!　They're not so soft!　Instead of going to help each and every one of them, we should cut off the source of this situation!'

However, Lastiara insists that they are not yet in a hurry.

Indeed, it is only the lower levels of the basement that are still being invaded.

I've included the lower level staffs to tell them that it's better to catch the intruders without resistance if they appear, so the special soldiers are also gentle in their response.

Unlike the case with me, they only shackle each one of us with handcuffs.

But even so, I knew I couldn't be optimistic.

............. Let's take a pause. I won't go directly to them, but I'll use remote magic to stall for time. I have the magic to do that.

'But ......, now Kanami is ......'

I took a compromise plan, just in case.

It's the same solution as when we used to explore the labyrinth together.

So Lastiara can't immediately say back, and in the meantime the magic ends up building.

'Change the construction of the cathedral.' --Magic 《Wood Quake Creation (Craft)》

It was a terrain building magic that was being developed along with Feydert for the reconstruction of the United States.

It was also a compound magic that made use of the magic stones of the ”One Who Steals the Reason” in the body.

The magic that couldn't show its true value on the ground is now rampant in the underground space.

Originally, the basement of this cathedral had a map in my head without needing to perform 《Dimension》. Furthermore, my daily life has caused its excessive dimensional attribute magic power to seep into the soil, and a kind of field-based magic is in place.

Without even needing to infiltrate the new magic, that magic is flowing and flowing.

-- Currently, the number of intruders is fourteen.

Of those, six are adjacent to the lower level staff.

Immediately, the underground room was magically transformed to create a partitioning wall between the lower level staff and the special soldiers.

However, the doorway is closed and not sealed.

I don't want to suffocate them, and I don't want to overwhelm them. With this map of the cathedral's basement spread out in my head, I will successfully create a maze with no exits where I will never meet the 'Magic Stone Humans' (Jewelculus).

As long as I have an escape route, they will waste their time investigating.

''Haha, haha ....... --ha!

When I created a simple 'labyrinth', I was out of breath.

Furthermore, the tips of my limbs began to tremble and my vision wobbled.

It's not because I've been using my magic for a long time and using the great skill of creating a labyrinth to stop me - I've been depleted of magic power.

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do that.

It doesn't mean that their technology hasn't caught up with them.

It was a bit of a nostalgic feeling.

A bit of psychological trauma (trauma) was making me nauseous.

'Hah, hah, hah ......'

Since that 'last battle', I had become slightly afraid of using magic.

I'm not afraid to use it for a moment without being aware of it. But if you use the magic stone inside your body and use the magic seriously (...), many memories will flash back to you.

It's a sickening feeling, as if I've driven a wooden stake that has become rotten and blubbery around my spinal cord.

To be honest, it's not that hard.

I'm used to this sort of thing, and if I wanted to adapt, I could do so in a heartbeat.

However, it also means that the magical stones of the 'reason-stealers' in your body will adjust to it. The cracked vessel called ”Aikawa Uzumi” will be even closer to completion.

--You're going to be able to get a lot more out of it.

It is not that I want to betray him.

It's not that I want to forget.

It's not that I've lost sight of the path I should take.

I'm not going to make the same mistake as that 'half-breed' girl. ......

”Ka, Kanami. Are you sure you're okay?　Should I shut up now?　This application of 'parallel thinking' is also burdensome and ......'

Seeing me holding my head down after using the magic 《Wood Quake Creation (Craft)》, Rustyala let out a worried voice.

Right now, I'm in the process of creating one of the 'massless brains' in imitation of my sister Yotaki.

It's just an experimental stage, but thanks to that, I've been able to communicate with the voice naturally without being aware of it. Rustyala knows my condition better than anyone else, that's why he suggested stopping this ”massless brain”. But I shake my head.

''No, let's keep it that way. I want you to tell me if we're being ambushed. Your 'voice' is absolutely necessary.

”...... Okay.

I didn't want to see Rustyala's face with such an 'anxious' look on it.

However, so easily, the sickening feeling wouldn't go away.

Maybe I shouldn't have used the compound magic using the magic stone yet.

Even if the magic stone can become stronger by fitting in, the strength of your mind depends on you.

Because I know that better than anyone else, I look forward with strength.

'Instead, let's move first. I have to solve the source of this incident while I'm stalling for time. --Distance Mute.

The destination is the lowest level.

Penetrating my entire body, I slip and fall through the floor of the room.

The moment you emerge into the corridor that was directly below you, you materialize again for a moment and kick the hard floor.

The leap allows him to adjust his direction as he moves, slipping and falling through the cathedral's underground space like a ghost.

After a few leaps and jumps, in a short amount of time, he crossed the ceiling of the lowest level of the 'Body Storage Room' and landed on the cold ground.

The room was empty.

After seeing the bouquet of flowers being trampled on, I calmly looked at the magic circle of the Replace Connection example.

It was different from the last time I saw it.

It's quite unstable, but the other side of the wall is definitely connected to the 'original world'.

It's complete. It's done. There are signs of passage. This is the source of the incident: ......

”...... I knew it, Serdra?

It's no doubt the work of the Guardian of the Labyrinth, the thief of nothingness, Seldra Queenfillion. Maybe he's leading us on. ”Let's go out there and fight to the hilt.

I can't think of any other reason why the doorway isn't occupied.

I feel a certain kind of trust.

It was the kind of trust that would be conveyed between friends without words.

Serdra would want to start.

Along with this flow, the 'trial'.

'Isn't this because Kanami said she wouldn't let the creature dwell until she was a hundred percent sure it was safe?　You look like you're feeling numb because you can't go play in another world forever.'

'No, that's not it. Serdra enjoyed the pre-trip arrangements. She enjoyed researching the Replacement Connection while thinking about other worlds even more than I did. ...... like a child being taken on a trip abroad for the first time in her life.

I was able to read that feeling of fun, so I figured there was still time for me.

Even though I would get bored quickly, I was supposed to be safe while I had some new fun.

But it wasn't to be.

'...... If you don't know why, let's ask him!　So, let's clear it out for both of us!　We'd do it all the time. It's easier and more comfortable than it was with Nosfi.'

Rastiara also seems to feel the signs of the 'test' and she knows that the future is as good as eighty layers of the labyrinth.

In front of the boss layer, she, as usual, made a belligerent suggestion.

That's the exact opposite of my reluctant choice - it's not going to be the opposite of my reluctant choice.

'Yeah. Right now, that girlfriend (Nosfi) is with me.

As a basic premise, I don't want to create any more unnecessary sparks between the 'original world' and the 'other world'.

Even if we crush the magicians in front of us, there's a high possibility that they will send soldiers in from another mouth.

Simply, Serdra has become an existence that can't be left alone for even a second.

''Let's go. We'll be fine, I'm sure of it.

With that statement, I started walking towards the wall with the magic circle written on it.

There is no hesitation or hesitation in advancing.

And those steps never hit the wall.

It was the same feeling as when I passed through the 《Connection》.

Passing through the gate of magic, he crossed the thick wall of the world and moved into another dimension.

--the return to the ”original world”.

This is a dream of mine since I first wandered into the labyrinth.

But there is no sunshine in the sky to congratulate you on the achievement of your dream.

It was even darker than the dimly lit ”Corpse Room” after passing through the gate.

But it was an open space, the sea breeze blowing through and the sound of the waves told me that it was an open space.

I could feel the soft sand on my feet.

The faint light from the star-filled sky faintly illuminates the black ocean.

It's outdoors.

The place is the beach of an uninhabited island, as it was originally set up.
