Dodo and Melst.

The two cities are not too far apart, the adventurer's feet can reach them in a few hours, and the dodo built on empty plains can be found faster than before.

But you can't see the city, even though you've been looking at it for a long time, even though you're approaching a strange distance.

What's the matter?

Melissa and Noel stopped at the back when they noticed.

Both of them were slightly shaking their bodies and fixed their gazes while staring at the front.

Frontal - Dodo was on the way.

Can't you see?

I looked directly at Melissa's words.

But I can't find any weird anomalies spreading across the plains. If you insist.....

"Is it true that the city is gone where it was?"

I know that the city disappeared with the light in advance.

I know that even though the city that disappeared has only been transferred, it is in a state of negligence.

What I don't know is the condition on this side of the metastasis.

"Don't watch it, watch it."

"Even if you say so..."

I tried to stare at Noel, but I couldn't feel anything.

Aira and Iris are looking the same way, and Sylvia is looking for something, but it's probably not a physical problem to see where she's confused.

Looks like Noel's watching it.

Yeah. It's almost like a guess.

Melissa raises her hand above her head and creates a magic ball of fire. A fireball big enough to fit in my hand.

If you wave your wrist gently, the fire ball will fly straight.

After a few seconds, the fireball suddenly disappears.

"It's gone...?"

Melissa could create a fireball that could reach even a few kilometers away.

If you didn't intentionally turn it off, you may have been hindered by something, even if it doesn't look like anything.

Is there a barrier?

“It's not that simple. I feel like I have something more troublesome.”

Noel nods in agreement.

What should I do?

"At least it's dangerous to go forward before the fireball has disappeared." Always let [World] unfold. We should be safe if we don't leave the realm of the [world]. ”

Is that okay?

As a result of the strengthening, the burden on [World] was also reduced. It is not impossible to maintain it now. For me, it just triggers a skill.

"You must possess a special skill like [World]." If we don't have someone nearby who can handle it, we'll be on our own. ”

As we knew from the beginning, the city of Dodo has become a dangerous zone nearby.

We can't take Mishrina and the others to such a place.

Initially, as the "Holy Maiden", I wanted to see the situation and ask you to express your opinion. Even if it was dangerous, I thought that if someone was on my side, I would be able to defend it.

However, it is also impossible to defend in a space where proximity itself is not allowed.

"Don't worry about me. I'll be waiting for you.”

"That being said..."

A plain with nothing.

I didn't see any signs of a monster nearby, but I couldn't predict what would happen. I can't leave it in such a place.

Should I leave someone behind?

However, it is also true that the place we are going is a dangerous area and we do not know what is there.

I don't think so.

Mishrina slammed the ground with her staff. Then, a light ball is launched from the jewel at the tip of the wand into the sky, and when it bursts, it emits a strong light.

A simple Light Magic that can emit a strong light.

It was a magic spell that didn't have any attack power, but it did work.

Someone's coming.

Aira becomes more alert as she sees a group of riders approaching from a distance.

"No, it's okay."

A knight in armor is riding on a horse that is approaching. The armor also has the coat of arms of the Duchy of Ishgaria, and it seems to be a group whose purpose is to rendezvous with Mishrina due to the circumstances.

The cavalry...... when they got to Mishrina-san, they got off the horse and knelt down.

"The Polyds have joined us."

"Thank you for your help in rushing us despite the sudden call."

Haha

It's quick, but has anything changed?

Their role is to blockade the city of Dodo. I didn't know what was going on, and the wizard who sent me to investigate had been disconnected. Inadvertent interference can lead to further dangers.

The country decided to lock it down quickly.

"No one has approached us since three days before we sealed it off. However, it is definitely not possible to say that the number of people is small relative to the area to be sealed.”

About thirty knights were mobilized to blockade a city of the size of thousands. It seems that more than 100 other soldiers have been mobilized and put on standby at their positions, but the number is not enough for a complete lockdown.

I can't help it.

"It's just..."

What have you noticed?

Paulid's gaze is on us.

"The Holy Maiden" and the Knight. Only those who serve the Duchy of Ishgaria are fine, but outsider adventurers don't want to hear about it.

“They'll be fine. You know about them, too. At least it won't hurt while I have a friendly relationship.”

He accepted our involvement when he got lost.

“Let me start with a report. I can no longer see Knight Rix and Oscar.”

Two knights. Both Pollid's men were on alert at Two-Man Cell.

"Mishrina-sama's words prevented us from approaching the city where she disappeared."

“But you said you didn't know where he was.”

Yes.

The knight disappeared.

It is unlikely that you approached the city ignoring the advice.

“It might not be safe outside of what we were expecting.”

The mere fact that the city had disappeared if we were to be vigilant was enough to alert the wizards dispatched earlier. But I still don't know where he is.

“Very well, keep a safe distance and be vigilant.”

“Then I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but I have one more thing to report.”

Someone is watching me.

I remembered that feeling and was spreading the sphere of vigilance, but I couldn't find anyone to look at.

It may be the only way.

"... what do you mean?"

Paulid's words contain frustration.

You must knowingly advise that you will make the other person angry, and you must knowingly advise that you will make the other person angry.

"The opponent is an adventurer." But it's hard to find a high ranking adventurer who's good at researching if he's serious about hiding. ”

"Are we inferior to adventurers!?"

"That's not true." It's simply a bad thing. ”

Adventurers of rank A or B. A knight would win if he collided with a knight head-on, but an adventurer would have a better chance of winning if he was hiding a permitted ambush. It's the difference between the areas I specialize in.

"And you guys are not wrong."

"What...?"

"Well, then, we're going to embark on an investigation." I'll leave the vigilance to you. "

Leave Paulid and the others on guard duty and escort Mishrina to the location where the Dodo city was.

The city has disappeared. Still, the traces of where the city of Dodo was were well preserved.

"There it is."

"I'm not sure because I came here a few years ago, and I can't judge if there's anything left. Still, the traces are there."

I checked with Ellis, who had been here before, but I couldn't get her to say for sure.

Still, there will be no mistake.

The ground is shaped like a circle 20 meters ahead. The depth is about two meters, which is not a big deal, but it is unusually large enough to cover the city.

The city of Dodo should have existed there.
