Renkinjutsushi Desu. Jijou wa Gomibako ni Sutete Kimashita

Neither did Dew know he had escaped from the hands of Sylvia and Lulimes, and Reyce even normally enjoyed the festival. Originally, I used to go into alchemy all the time after I was mindful. This is the first time I have participated in each of these events, not just in the Wang capital.

I've become quite used to the atmosphere on the ground after some inexplicable things, and all I have to do is hope it ends peacefully like this.

"And then after this, fireworks."

"Right, we're almost there"

"Then look for a suitable place to sit by then."

Find a place a little further away from the crowded area where you can relax and see the fireworks. As he glanced around, Reyce discovered he was familiar.

"Eh."

The person ahead of Reyce's gaze who rocks her peachy hair and wraps herself around her guild uniform. He is the person Rayce least wants to encounter, and nature and his legs try to move to leave this place.

But that never came true.

"Oh, to Mr. Raffie, Mr. Reyes!

As soon as I admitted Race and Raffie appeared, Amelia rushed over to brighten her expression. Only when you seem to be able to finish peacefully is there going to be a weak sound, but you can easily tell yourself that you are about to step on it.

"Mr. Amelia, why are you here? I do think Sylvia said she couldn't have invited Amelia..."

"Oh, well. I couldn't come with you because I had a guild job today. Really, I want you to rest for an event like this..."

Even though it is a festival, it is at times like this that there will be many crimes. Besides, the King Dragon Festival is held throughout the King's capital, so there is no way that there are too many security personnel. For those reasons, even the Alliance staff are being driven out to guard the festival.

However, Reyce wanted to complain about one of the ways in which he would meet Pinpoint in the wide Wang capital.

"... So, Mr. Raffie and Mr. Reyes are both going around the festival?

I can't just say goodbye to the public stories that I find, but questions fly from Amelia, who seems to have a much more enjoyable grin. I dare ask as I listen to Reyce's false lover proclamation in my guild. I'm coming here to take some room in my heart from Reis.

"Yeah, well, there's an area thing going on."

"Well, we're good friends, right?"

Amelia turned her attention to the hair decorations that Reis presented to Raffy. Of course this is also part of my lover's gesture, but Amelia won't try to admit it. Raise worried about what to say.

Unexpectedly look up at the sky - narrow your eyes.

"Hmm...?

Thin and thin in the air, but drifting like fog. Besides, this place isn't the only place. All the places within sight, gradually covered with fog.

"What is this fog?

I look at the fog that appeared abruptly and whisk my eyebrows. The moment Rayce undone the gaze he was pointing up. The 'Magic Deactivation' ring, which I forgot to experiment with while fitted in my finger, was shattered with a light of light.

Fragments dissolve in the universe and disappear as if nothing had happened.

"Huh."

To a sudden event, Reis' thoughts cease. Raffie and Amelia's strange gaze overlaps the shattered ring. After a moment of silence dominated the scene...

"Ah, fuck..."

Amelia's eyes were out of focus and she slowly knelt down.

"Amelia......!?

Raffie leans in hastily to support him, but there is no voice to respond from Amelia. Peeping into his face, he seemed to be meditating on his eyes and losing consciousness. There are no notable traumas, and he is breathing normally.

"Why suddenly..."

Raffie, one or the other Lace, who will have a surprising look, has been observing the surroundings. And come to one conclusion.

"Maybe it's some kind of magic, this"

"Magic......?

Raffie carries sleeping Amelia to a safe place for now and looks up at the fog-covered sky just like Reis. At first, something small, like drifting into the air with thin pieces, had turned into a deep mist that was now not even a little further ahead. Even if fog occurs, the way it spreads is obviously strange.

There were also times when the 'magic deactivation' ring was shattered, and Reyce concluded that it was ultimately a phenomenon caused by magic.

The question is, what kind of magic does it have?

"It's not just fog-producing magic..."

"I guess that's not..."

As far as Amelia, who has suddenly fallen asleep, is sure to be the first to see that it has any effect other than to produce fog.

"Raffie, keep your eyes open for once. I'll see if there's anything wrong with Amelia's body."

"Oh, okay"

Reis succumbs beside sleeping Amelia.

"Mr. Amelia, please wake up"

Care for the unconscious body and shake gently, but no response returns. Just keep your eyes meditating and repeat your regular breathing. I had no choice but to activate Alchemy.

"" Analyze ""

Find out without missing anything.

But I don't see any particular anomalies. I would really just be asleep.

"For now, it doesn't seem like it's poison or anything of the kind that does harm to the human body. I'm just sleeping."

"Good..."

For one thing, it's only reassuring that it's not magic like it involves death. The two of you took a sigh of relief, though. It immediately gives me a harsh look.

"No, I guess it's because I was wearing a 'magic deactivation' ring, but how is Raffie okay with that?

"I don't know either. I don't feel particularly ill..."

"Depending on the person, can there be a time difference before it works?

"When that happens, I want to keep it moving while I can..."

The magic that generates fog and lets people sleep. It is also expected, as far as can be seen, to cover a considerable area of the King's capital. The power will be considerable when you become a magician capable of covering your range so far. At least, it's not just magic that ordinary people can exercise.

I'm not sure what's doing this for a purpose, but I can't just sit still like this for the most part. We don't know how many people are conscious in the Wang capital right now. Maybe it's just the two of us, Lace and Raphy.

"What do we do, Raffie? I think we should check to see if anybody's awake for now and anywhere else."

"Well, I don't know when this mist will go away either."

A few minutes have been about to pass since the fog appeared, but it still doesn't even fade away. Perhaps the person activating the magic maintains it all the time. Nevertheless, it can be described as inexhaustible magic. Because it is a magical scale that is difficult for ordinary people to deploy and even maintain.

If you do poorly, you may be on a level comparable to Lulimes, Race's master. If malicious people are causing this, it's pretty nasty.

"Ah, this would still be better if Amelia made fun of me..."

I wanted to finish the festival without anything, but in this situation the wish will never come true. Rayce sighs when she sees the fog blocking her sight.

"In the meantime, let's go back the way we've been"

"Right."

As the Reis were headed to a relatively sparsely populated place to see the fireworks quietly, there would be many if they returned to their original path. Besides, it's in this fog. If you don't clearly decide where to head, you can easily get lost. In this situation, you might not be able to laugh if you were out of line.

Race and Raffie flip their bodies and move on with a small run. I really just want to run, but I'm stuck on something or maybe people are down. If I thought so, I really had to be cautious.

"I wish I could use magic at times like this"

"Well, sure, you could have paid off some fog. You can't do something about it with alchemy?

"What do you think? Maybe the" Magic Deactivation "ring just reacted to the effects of sleep, and it's hard to get rid of the fog itself."

There's no way 'magic deactivation' won't work any more than this fog is magic, but it'll probably require a bigger alchemy. Either way, the Magic Deactivation ring is the only one Rayce wore earlier. Given Reis' strength, it is very likely that even the material could have deactivated the fog. But unfortunately it doesn't exist in hand.

"It's going to be hard not to wave the sword away..."

Raffy waves his sword lightly, but the fog doesn't clear at all.

"A normal fog might do that, but when it comes to magic, you won't be able to do it first. We have to be careful."

As Reis and Raffie are progressing as they speak, a people-shaped silhouette floats up at the end of their gaze. But all of them are about to fall to the ground, and I don't see any figures that seem conscious.

"This is a low expectation..."

I knew the results before I approached them, and Reis had a bitter look.

And that anticipation did not go off, and a large number of unconscious people had fallen. Rayce and Raffie stop once and get close to the person who is falling.

"You're just like Mr. Amelia. Sleeping..."

"When so many people are unconscious, it may be desperate to find someone awake..."

"It's a nasty result, not at all"

It's easy to find if you can at least ensure your vision. That's what I think, and Reyce comes up with one means.

"If you can't see, why don't you just sue me in the ear...?

A way to find out if there are conscious people around you, for example by raising your voice out loud. It was certainly more of an effective means than vision failing to function properly.

"It's just a big risk, too."

If the person using this magic is nearby and the person is hostile. You will be unilaterally informed of this location.

"Well, maybe I can if I just run away"

"Is it true...?

"Buff-based potions and magic tricks at all costs."

Gras fruit potions and other fights are of course useful for escape. In addition to potions, there are various magic items. If you're willing to run away from the beginning, you won't have a problem.

"Sure, I might be able to..."

"Besides, if they're coming out, it's convenient to come out"

"... right. All right, then I'll be on my guard, 'cause Reyce wants a voice."

"Okay."

Reyce took a few deep breaths and inhaled softly and sharply.

"Is anyone there -!!

The words screamed in loud volume echo the eerily quiet King's Capital. People who respond to screams that would have arrived full of quiet streets...

"Who!

Raffie screams so sharply, she takes the stand with her bare hands. He swung his fist in a direction that was fast beyond sight and stopped moving perfectly in the air. Right in front of your fist, you can see the human abdomen covered in clothes. It was the blonde who slowly emerged from the tip of the mist as it was.

"Come on, can you put your fist down, Raffie?"

Elial said that quietly, sweating cold. Reis and Raphy, who were nervous, sigh deeply at the same time. Raffie lowered the fist that had accompanied Elial's abdomen.

"I came because I heard voices, and suddenly I was surprised they poked me in the fist."

"I was on guard too, sorry"

"Well, I didn't speak up. I'm sorry, too. Mutual."

We exchange apologies with each other, and the three of us face each other.

Now, third person. This is the shape added by the second S-Class Adventurer.

It is an impeccable formation in terms of its strength.

"Well, Elial, how much do you know about this situation?

"I'm not that familiar with it either. If you think there's a mist all of a sudden, people suddenly fall. In the meantime, I was looking for someone conscious after checking to see if anyone was injured nearby."

"Is it so different from what we know..."

Though I didn't expect that much, I just get a little depressed. What's missing from the Reyes now is information.

"I just got a little bit figured out. Perhaps only humans who have more than a certain resistance to magic remain conscious right now. Otherwise, human beings must be unconditionally put to sleep. It's good evidence that me and Raffie aren't asleep."

"I see, resistance..."

Magic resistance is determined by innate talent and acquired effort. For example, adventurers and the like are often attacked by magic from demons. In this way, by gaining experience, we can develop something called resistance to nature and magic.

"Then you seem to be keeping consciousness in this king's capital right now..."
