Chapter 286: You are going that far?

With the help of Makado-san’s ability, ere transported from the 20th floor to the 25th floor, and after that, alked down the spiral stairith Azu-san at the front,down

In that tian with self-introductions

How to say it, ed words several times in the middle of battle and have probed each other’s heart, this feels really late

And we also talked about his sword

This place is a location where faint red light leaks out from the floor, and it seeht in front of us at thisrock…it makes me think of it as a rock seat

More so when the surroundings are filled with a ives out the feeling of a lid, or a seal

He said that they weren’t able to draw it out by force, so they tried a lot of things, and as a result of it, the ed to draw it out

It makes me question if it was actually okay to draw it out

Well, even if it was a bad call, it is all in the past now though

I the scenery in the past, a wry smile naturally surfaces from my mouth

“And, what’s in this place? Froht serve as a on like a? I also don’t knohat is your ai out the surroundings, Tohtly narrows her eyes and looks at Azu-san

His life as a japanese person, his life when he just came to this world, his life as a swordsht and acted as the Guild Master On top of that, he also told us about in

He readily told me to call him Azu instead of Aznoval, and in the end, I felt like Azu-san was the way of calling that felt theinside of et used to calling hih

This is the same for Azu-san as well as his comrades

Toer for , that conversation with hi here…I a iht First, let’s go with the main objective Makoto-kun, after our talk, I a to you” (Aznoval)

“?”

Me?

What did I say that prompted this confidence?

Most of the talk we had was hi of himself Compared to that, I only spoke a bit about my time in japan

What could it be?

“Those words just now, should I take the that talk as a pretext to extract information from my master, Waka?” (Tomoe)

“No no It is just that now that I have invited you two, I thought that it would be best if all three of us were to benefit from it At the very least, I wanted you to learn that I have also gained plenty enough benefits from this as well” (Aznoval)

“Azu-san…” (Makoto)

“Then, I will explain now This is the deepest area of Yaso-Magatsuhi’s Prison Palace This small space that doesn’t even reach the 100 tatami mats”

“…”

That is indeed sarden of a residence, it can also be considered extravagant though

Compared to the 1st floor that was a plain that extended as far as the eye can see, this is certainly small And the entrance was also crazy

Wouldn’t things get heated up if they were to do an adventurer festival there?

They could even bring a float there

“And so, this place is…” (Aznoval)

“…”

Maybe he is planning on saying soht nervousness from Azu-san

To here?

Whatdoes this place hold?

Is he about to talk of a secret truth that only a few in this world would know?

“This place is also the border between life and death” (Aznoval)

Border of life and death?

Even if you tell me that…what does that mean?

“Life and death So, this is like the Yoe to speak out ords that fit the ie Azu-san just described

A name that appears in japanese eable Yeah, that’s exactly right This is the Yoood amount of explanation A happy surprise” (Aznoval)

I still don’t have a clear ie

Azu-san nods in satisfaction, but I on the contrary…feel like it would have been better if I hadn’t said anything

Yomi-Birazaka…is the boundary of life and death depicted in japanese myth

In terms of myths, I do know about it

But that’s all I know!

“But of course, myth and reality are different It is normally difficult to think of life and death as different fro that as well” (Aznoval)

“…That would help a lot” (Makoto)

It seriously would

“From what I know of the modern japan, it works differently In this world, life and death are connected to the present world and the world of the dead They exist in the same world In other words, they have borders that can be crossed” (Aznoval)

“…Okay?” (Makoto)

“But, even if I say that, it doesn’t mean they are completely connected Makoto-kun, do you know of balloon art?” (Aznoval)

Now he talks about balloon art?

Isn’t it the one where you inflate a long balloon to s out of it?

A poodle surfaced in my mind

“Is it the one that you twist balloons and ht You can think of this place as the torsion It is the place that’s the closest to life and death In other words, the border of life and death; the ravine” (Aznoval)

“…So…the sword of Azu-san that was pierced into that rock was…” (Makoto)

“Just like what you iine, it was a lid In order for the torsion to not loosen” (Aznoval)

“Uh the sas a bad idea then? You know, in a lot ofwar between the living and the dead?

“It is just as Waka says If your story is true, it would have created a big disaster that would never disappear from history But there’s no such records in this world It is a pretty hard to s story-ja na” (Tomoe)

True

“Yeah, it was pretty bad I only learned about the full picture not that long ago though” (Aznoval)

“…”

Uuh, it looks like he is going to ignore the question of Toreatsword he had on his back

Right now, it has no sheath

At the end of the fight, he had a sheath for it

And after stopping his released Iai in the middle of it, he declared his surrender

“‘Naave to this sword And it is also the naether with my cute illusory beasts” (Aznoval)

“…It had astonishi+ng power” (Makoto)

Honestly speaking, it is to a level that if I was fighting against a party and I had received that finisher technique in a tiht have died

“When I hear that froest co Well, after forcefully drawing out the sentient sword and taking possession of it, it didn’t want to tell ave to it can be considered a self-deprecating naht have been because of the anger I felt when I learnedproblem’, is what Azu-san muttered as he makes a bitter smile

“What about the answer to nore it?” (Tomoe)

“I will answer in order, Tomoe-san Please wait for a bit more I have had several questions for many years, and it was just recently that I found the answer for a nuiven up on One of those was the true name of this sword” (Aznoval)

“…”
