171 cathedral




 Although it was decided to go to the cathedral, it was impossible to tell them where it was going.
 You will need to be able to use your own personal computer to find out what you are looking for.

 And Beatrice would have known from that word alone that it was trouble.
 You will be able to find out more about the details, but you'll have the same frustrated, regretful look on your face as yesterday and say that you're in charge.
 You'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.

 However, the cathedral is not an easy place to get to.
 It is a completely neutral zone, a place that professes to receive no interference from other countries.
 It's a proper place, as it should be.

 And in a physical sense, too.

"This world's largest mountain range, at its peak. How dare they build on the summit of the world's largest mountain range. ......
Well, it's standard practice that it's easier to get to God in high places.
"...... easy to monitor each other too?
I guess that's what it means.

 Indeed, it is a mountain where there is nothing but a cathedral.

 The mountain itself is considered a neutral zone, so it is easily recognizable if a church member approaches or if a church member emerges.
 No place could be more suitable for surveillance.

You wouldn't expect the devil to come in and out of such a place openly, would you?
The idea would never have occurred to me.
"Even ...... can actually be broken into without anyone knowing. Now, Milene and her team are proving it.
No. ...... Milene's ability is truly menacing.

 As he watched the cathedral gradually grow in size within his field of vision, Allen muttered to himself in dismay.
 I didn't expect them to succeed so easily, but that's the truth.

 As always, it is thanks to Milene that Allen and his team have been able to approach the cathedral without any problems.
 The guards at the foot of the mountain hadn't even noticed, and even though they were close to the cathedral, they still didn't seem to be aware of it.

 It was truly too useful a power, and at the same time, one could only sigh if it was misused.
 Well, the same kind of ability has actually been misused in assassination cases.

Well, it's a gift, not a gift, that's what Milene's is. It's hard to find out if it's being used even if you know it's being used, but if you don't know it's being used, there's no way to find out.
"Even ...... was spotted earlier because of Allen,
"What the hell do you think Allen is? Allen is? It's only natural to do that much.
"...... convinced
"Hmmm, does that make sense to you, ......, because I feel like I'm being treated wrong in your mind?

 We were whispering such things to each other as we walked up the mountain.
 Before you know it, the cathedral is just a stone's throw away, and by the looks of it, you can get to the end without noticing.

 But the real problem is still there.

Well, all that nonsense aside, how did I get into ......?
I hope you can confirm whether Leeds and his friends are there without going inside: ...... There are a handful of people who know that ......, or even a handful of people who might not even know. There is no other way to identify them other than to check inside, so we need to get in there somehow: ......
...... I can get through by myself, but not with Allen and his team.
It's not so bad if you can do it. Well, it's bad enough when one person, Milene, can get through it.

 In the event that you are not able to get a good deal more than you want, then you will be able to get a good deal more than you want.
 Or, if Milene opens the door, Aren and the others could enter the building and join her inside, but the risk of exposing Aren and the others is high, even if it's only for a short time.

 However, if you say that, the point of opening the door is dangerous enough.
 There is a possibility that the door is rigged with something, and the question is whether it can be opened in the first place.

Hmm ...... how do the devils get in?
"Isn't directly in transition? Or it could be that you've got permission to go in really openly, though.
Is there anything like a back door?
"Even if there was ......, I doubt you'd find it?
"It would be nice if someone would come and go at the right time, but I don't think it's going to be that convenient. Basically, the cathedral should have very few people coming and going.
...... For now, we'll just have to look around and see if there are any places to hide, or... We don't even know if there's a place to hide.

 And while we were talking about this, we seemed to have arrived at the summit.
 The steep slope disappeared, and the ground was flat all around.

 And best of all, there's a structure in front of you that makes your neck hurt when you look up.
 I knew it was big because it was clearly visible from a distance, but when I saw it up close it was even bigger than I had expected.

...... As I said before, how could they build such a thing in such a place?
It's a symbol of how much power the church has: ....... The building is supposed to be powerful, but I don't think anyone would think so after seeing it.
...... seems to cost a lot of money.
It would have taken a lot of money and people and stuff.

 Even with the help of the dwarves and their gifts, there are limits.
 Or the demon may have helped in the construction of this as well.
 From what I recall of the base, that kind of knowledge and ability seemed to exist, so it was possible.

 But even with that in mind, you can't stay overwhelmed forever.
 I looked around and saw that there were no gatekeepers, but there didn't seem to be a soul in sight.
 It's a very good idea to be able to use the method of intruding into the house by hiding behind someone else.

...... For now, there is no place to hide. I'm sure they have cleared this area to make this. From what we've seen so far, it's unnaturally flat, and there are no rocks in sight.
The worst thing about the hiding place is that you can find it by going back and sidestepping a little bit. ...... The problem is that the door is so gorgeous and magnificent that it looks like a problem.
...... obviously something is being planted? Try ......?
No, it's not safe, and I'll take a look at it anyway.

 What you need is information not on the other side of the door, but on the door itself.


 If the door itself seems to be empty, then I'm going to check the other side - but

 --The Omniscient Authority, Code Akashic: Eye of Heaven.

 ...... Apparently, there's no need for that.
 I'm not going to be the only one who can see it.

"I guess I don't need to ask that by the looks of it, but I'm going to ask you anyway. How was it?
In the meantime, it's probably best not to try to open it without permission. I'm not sure of the details, since even a cursory glance at it reveals how reckless it is, but at least the alarm is triggered when you try to open it without permission, and if you still try to open it, at least you won't get out of it unharmed.
"Isn't ...... the worst?
As far as I can see, you're subjected to a technique where you're subjected to a fever that causes dozens of people to gather up and scatter the heat around you like it's going to turn into dust?
"...... military base?
And it's a class of room where you store top-secret information.

 You'll be able to cut through the doorway without suffering any damage, but with the way things are going, the intrusion will certainly be discovered at that point.
 If you are confident that Leeds and the others are here, such a strong attack is worth considering, but as expected, it is reckless at this point in time.

"...... would you give up on opening the door and go explore by yourself?
"Oh, I shouldn't do that either, should I? Apparently, it has a top-level security system for intrusion from the outside as well. Moreover, the door seems to be the base of the effect on the entire building, so it would be impossible to get in through the walls. I think it will probably play transference too.
I don't think they brought Leeds and the others in a big way, so maybe they left the door open for that one time.
Maybe.

 Of course, that is if Leeds and his friends were really brought here, but there is no need to make that assumption now.
 What's important is whether or not it's possible based on that premise.

 And the conclusion is yes, then the possibility of Leeds and others being here is not ruled out.
 Nevertheless.

Well, I wonder what's going on at ......

 Just because it is not denied does not mean it is affirmed.
 At any rate, the only thing we've learned so far is that it's very difficult to enter the cathedral.
 Of course, I'm not going to give up with that, but it's true that the situation has become much more difficult.

 Will I manage to find some kind of back door, wait for someone to come in or out, or think of another way?
 Muttering again about what's going on, Allen let out a sigh, looking up at the majesty of the cathedral.
