Ex Strongest Swordsman Longs For Magic In Different World

177 Encounter The Former Strongest, Nostalgic Face

At the time of appearance, it was half clear, but apparently it would take about two days a day to walk this Demon King's Castle from corner to corner.

First of all, it's simply a big place, but the aisle is narrower than that.

Technically, the width is to the extent that two or three people can get through, and the height is to the extent that the head doesn't reach the ceiling where it jumps up lightly.

But given the size of the castle, you can say it's narrow.

And that means, depending on the number of rooms and the size there, you'll also need to travel accordingly.

If, within the same area, we consider that a wide and narrow passage is to be laid, it is inevitable that the narrow passages will be more numerous and the distance that we will have to walk for them will increase.

Well, I can't tell you all about it because it could also be enlarging the room in the aisle, but at this rate it won't make a big difference unless the room is extra large.

Besides, this is Demon King Castle.

It is more natural to assume that there can be no such thing as easy to make ahead, but rather that this kind of road continues in an extended way.

Or it's been about thirty minutes since I started walking here, but there's actually been a similar passage like this all along.

Then again, it is likely that this will be the case in the future.

Of course, whether that's the normal path is another story.

"In the first place, it's not a normal path at the moment."

Looking around with a sigh of sigh, that's the stone corridor there.

It seems that it was made from the same raw materials used in the room with Felicia and the others earlier, but there is a clear difference there.

It looks like it was written on a wall.

Rather than differing texts, there was no text itself in that room, so the text itself is a difference.

But if that room was a killer landscape, it wasn't.

No, it was definitely a killing landscape, but this text doesn't exist to entertain the eyes.

Nevertheless, this would not in itself have any effect.

It's not pointless, but it's not something that works alone, it's one of those things.

If we were to draw a conclusion in the end, they were something that confused the sense of distance, the sense of direction, etc.

Part of that trick is the fact that the monotonous scenery seems to continue.

It slows down concentration and deprives us of normal judgment one by one.

And as I said, this actually looks monotonous, it's not monotonous.

Only marginally, the aisle is angled to such an extent that it is not normally noticed, and the distance is shorter or longer.

That's the kind of thing that drives the senses a little crazy.

Plain when it comes to plain, but that's why it's hard to be noticed and quite effective.

Because it's also possible that we're going ahead, but actually we're just gluing around the same place.

"... it seems to be a devil's castle trick, but it's subtle."

But when it comes to solidity, it's solid, and above all, it's a really nasty trick around where I knew I couldn't ignore it altogether.

Somehow, the text seems to contain implicit effects, and in this minute, it seems to have planted a variety of other things.

It was a trick that seemed to understand the character of those who made this.

Nevertheless, it seems that this castle diverts almost exactly what its predecessors used, so I guess that's the one who had a nasty personality.

"Whatever it is, Felicia and the others are right to wait,"

Felicia would have been exhausted just because something interesting was waiting for her ahead.

Well, in that sense, maybe this sounds like Demon Royal Castle.

in the sense of sifting off what is lacking in strength.

If there's a problem, does it mean it's time for Soma to start getting tired of walking here?

Maybe there are demons unleashed here by nature, and some of them make it harder to understand the trick here, but as things stand, the aisle just keeps even going.

It's just that I'm free, more than just that something doesn't happen where I realize the trick.

Let's get tired of the soma.

"Hum... Forcing a shortcut for the first time... no, is that just bad?

If it's just the castle of the demon king, it's where we cut and tear down the aisle and create it on the road, but this is Aina's house as well.

I'm still searching for my family, and if I even start destroying it, I won't have to be as stylish as I want.

"... no? If you insist that you have made it easy to see and live in. Or...?

I'll start thinking about that, but that won't help either.

Anyway, from the feeling of Soma, we should not have been able to turn a third yet.

I mean, in the worst case scenario, you have to spend more than twice as much time walking around here.

You can't be doing something decent or anything.

Besides, given the height to the ceiling, there seems to be quite a few hierarchies here as well.

That's where my guess is that it'll take a few days to look around from corner to corner... but if it felt the same way there, I'm just not sure I can contain my desire to make a shortcut.

Well, you can start exploring on your own.

"... yeah?

And that was when I tried to walk through the same path as before with a sigh of sigh.

I stopped inadvertently because I felt somewhat uncomfortable.

That's not what I felt against the text on the wall or the inclination of the aisle.

In the first place, that would be now.

I did notice the trick here because I felt uncomfortable there... but what I just learned was a different feeling from that.

"Hmm, is this... a wall, is it?

Look around and make a point there.

Because the text is slightly uncomfortable, it's a little difficult to understand.

"Again, it is... and this is..."

If I pushed the uncomfortable wall on him, only that part shifted slightly backwards.

Stop like you caught something right away, but if you get here, I can somehow imagine.

When I moved it left and right, it seemed to move it to the right.

If you actually do that, the wall in front of you slides brilliantly to the right.

Eventually, there was a pocky hole there to the point where one person could get through.

"Hidden passages… rather than hidden rooms, is that what it is?

Maybe this isn't the way to go.

I think so because it is a little too early in position if it is also a staircase that leads to the upper level here.

Though it was quite difficult to understand, the fact that soma was found in this way meant that it was not something to be found once and for all.

And if they find it, more than half the tricks will be pointless.

There's no possibility of keeping that place in a place like this for backwards, but it'll be hard to think about.

In short, this is likely an irrelevant place to move on.

"If you are, it's not worth going to."

Rather, there is no reason not to go in this situation.

I'm getting tired of it, and above all, there's a chance that something's hidden up ahead.

You can't possibly not go.

And that's how I moved on.

"Mm... this is..."

I knew right away that the place was different from where it had been.

Anyway, it's obvious from the looks of it.

The colors that jumped into view were green first, followed by tea.

was a tree.

Besides, it's quite a giant tree.

Anyway, if you try to look up ahead, you have to lean to the point where your neck hurts.

Apparently this is the only place with different ceiling heights, and that's not all I can tell is that it's not just a tree.

But Soma soon got out of sight.

directly below it... rather than because I found a shadow leaning on the trunk part.

He seemed to be asleep... but at the moment, when his eyes were opened, he woke his body in a panic.

"Yabe, they found... that doesn't sound like it. I mean, who?

So said the face that tilted his neck belonged to a young man.

Something like a mid-teenager?

The color of its hair and eyes is the same pitch-black as soma's, but behind its eyes it makes it feel somewhat like it's old.

He was a man of unclear age, like he was a boy, like he was a youth, like he was more than that, pah.

But that's not why Soma lost her word there.

That 's--

"Hmm, invader, I don't feel killer or anything for... are you lost? That means it's possible that someone came... but look. Leave it to him and you'll figure it out. So I'm sorry. I'm not going to show you how to get lost. It's a hassle. I'm still sloppy here, so do your best to get back on your own."

But with that said, Soma exhaled into the figure of a man who really deposited his body in the trunk of the tree again and began to close his eyes.

Well, I was kind of thinking that might happen.

"Not at all... you've gone somewhere surprised. It would be okay to have changed a little, but it would be too much. As always - Iori Kanzaki."

"- What do you mean?

Immediately after, the man's eyes are reopened and his astonishing gaze is directed this way, but as a soma, all he has to do is exhale a sigh containing a shudder.

Really... no matter how much, it would be too unusual.

In many ways.

"Why did you give me my name... No, wait? With that strange talk, you know me...?

"It's really the same with you, like a strange conversation. It would be too rude to complain about how people talk."

"And the way you say it... I knew it was you, Soma - the Night Fog Soma...!?

"It is true, but it is also wrong. Technically, he's already dead."

To his nostalgic friend, Soma, called by his nostalgic name, shrugged his shoulders when he smiled bitterly at his surprised face.
