355-349 Two magic circles




 When the light stopped, it was a certain room in the Adventurer's Guild that I had seen before.
 It seems that they were able to transition properly.
 The miasma is not the same as that of the other adventurers' guilds, but since the miasma is so strong, it must be inside the Duchy of Blange.
 It's a good thing that the miasma is so strong that you can't get rid of it.
 It's eerie just because I can't catch the existence of the evil gods.
 I activated the Aura Coat on Master and Lionel and decided to talk to them about the current situation and what to do in the future.

''It seems that you were able to successfully transition. I saw a great miasma, so I activated the Aura Coat. Just to confirm, can Master and Lionel see the miasma?
"I don't see any miasma...
Just a little bit, but it feels like you're in a labyrinth.
 
 I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

 Well, I'm not worried about that.
 The miasma is a very rare disease that can cause a lot of problems.
 The mere fact that a mere mere mortal appears in the maze is not enough to cause miasma, but only when a monster appears, is defeated, or is emitted by the monster itself.
 The miasma is a miasma that is made up of miasma and magical power, but the miasma is a misunderstanding.
 It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends.
 After all, if the Dark Continent is connected to it, there will only be more damage if it's connected to the Dark Continent.

''But what I'm concerned about is that there's no sign of anyone in the guild at all.
 Just like my master said, I can't capture any signs or magic power within the guild.
 However, that's only within the guild........

''That's right. It's just that we don't know if it's people or demons, but a great deal of magic power is gathering in a certain direction. I don't know more details until I go out and see them, but they may be brainwashing you with dark attribute magic.
 Or it's instigated, but well, even the staff of the adventurer's guild is gone, so it's definitely brainwashing by dark attribute magic.

It's a good idea to use a purifying wave (Purification Wave) to get rid of the miasma by directing it in a direction where no one is present.
 That's true, but that doesn't mean you can't take it by surprise, let alone see what happens.
 And even if you purify it, if you don't destroy the source of the outbreak, its effect will be minimal.

''We can... but maybe the reason we're gathering people together is to sacrifice them to connect the dark continent, or as far as we can tell, to make them demonized or something else.
 I know I said it myself, but that's the most likely to happen.
 There's a price to pay for the summoning.
 Besides, if the evil gods get serious, the miasma is likely to flood the city in an instant.......

''Even if we were able to purify the city, unbrainwashing it would be a higher priority, wouldn't it?
'Yes. Of course, I'm sure we'll have to make changes based on the situation. There's a chance we'll get involved, but let's still prioritize defeating the evil gods.
 I didn't think they were brainwashing the whole town........
 It can't be helped, though, since there were no such reports from the merchants and adventurers that I had asked to be scouts, either.......

''Even so, I didn't expect you to gather people from all over the city.......
'Well, the highest priority is the annihilation of the summoning magic circle. The next highest priority is the annihilation of the summoning magic circle. But I don't want to use Purification Wave as much as possible. Of course, if it becomes dangerous, I won't hesitate to activate the Sanctuary Warding (Sanctuary Barrier) as well...
'You don't want to use it as much as possible because even ordinary people who don't know anything about it could be turned into demons, right?
Yes, sir.
 There were a lot of lives I couldn't save in the Empire, but now I can undo the people who have been turned into demons without knowing it.
 I don't want as many people to lose their lives at the mercy of an unreasonable fate. 

''You have your mind made up, right?
'Yes. I think it will be unavoidable if it becomes a battle....... Even so, as expected after the Evil God War, we want to limit the damage as much as possible.
'Pfft. But think about what happens before it starts and after it's over.... But it's necessary.
''Indeed. I can't wait to see my kids too, so I must win this battle with all my might and quickly win a whirlwind series of victories.
'Why don't you stop being so stubborn and get a ride to Yenis before this fight?
 I agree with my mentor on this one, as expected.
 It's just that I've had many opportunities in the past, but I've stubbornly refused to do so.
 It can't be helped since Lionel has an uncompromising feeling for him.......

''Whirlwind, you're planning to defeat Luciel-sama and the Evil God in the meantime. I won't let you do that.
'It's going to be fun to fight with my apprentice once in a while.
''After all, let's get this fight over with quickly. Master Luciel, let's get going.
 Lionel heads for the door, giving his grinning master a blue streak.
 The interaction between the two of them is the same as usual that's very reassuring. 

''Alright.
I'll take care of it.
 After that, I didn't see a single shadow of a person until I left the guild, or even after I left.
 But as soon as I left the guild, such trivial matters were relegated to the back of my mind.
 Because I caught a huge magic circle floating in the red-black sky, although it still seemed to be unfinished.

'Master, Lionel can you see that magic circle?'
'Yeah ... and the sky is such an eerie color, black and purple.
 Apparently, they are watching.
 The only thing I can say without a doubt is that the magic circle is the magic circle that connects the dark continent that the Spirit Queen was talking about.

''Luciel-sama, what is this shimmering from the ground like a shimmering flame?''
It's supposed to be a miasma. But you can even see the miasma...
 The concentration hasn't changed much, but the miasma is overflowing from the ground, and maybe it's a state similar to the dark continent.
 It's a good thing that the demon race and demons are strengthened...or does that mean they can move in their original state?

''Luciel, don't get too lost. As long as the magic circle is in a visible place, the first priority is to make it disappear, right?
''Yes. It looks like that magic circle isn't finished yet, and I'd like to contain the magic circle with the Sanctuary Wards (Sanctuary Barrier).
Can you do it?
I have to do it, you know.
'Master Luciel, how is the castle where the people are gathered?'
 That's the problem........

''First of all, I'll transfer to the sky above that castle where people are gathering, and after checking the situation, I'll wrap the magic circle with a sanctuary ward (Sanctuary Barrier). Then, I will make the people be swallowed by the holy dragon to protect them. If the evil gods and demons attack, I will leave it to you.
 They nodded at the same time and confirmed that they took out their weapons from the magic bag, and after granting the wind-attribute levitation magic that applied spirit magic, they transitioned to the sky above the castle, where they saw an amazing scene.
 What's more, the entire area of the road and garden leading to the castle was covered with a red-black magic circle just like the magic circle above.
 I'm not sure I'll be able to find a way to get a good job at it.
