Chapter 84.

The sky was blue in front of me, and a gust of wind was blowing like never before.
“Hmmm ……”
I climbed well along Callisto to the end of the rock, and was forced into a smooth sailing, unable to hold the center, swaying.
As if falling, vertigo pounds through my body.” Careful.”
A powerful force grabbed my wrist. I don’t know if there was any blow from the blow, but the Crown Prince stood firm and held me easily.
“Gong-girl.” That’s when a hand grabbed the fluttering hair and opened my eyes with difficulty.” This is ……”
There was a large circle around the body. Inside, unseen people began to draw chaotic patterns like paintings, and soon the blue liquid on top exploded. Fire like earthworms and unknown invisible forces surged madly around the corpse. Strong stony winds seemed to have been caused by him. The hem of the door curtain cloth hanging over the ashes fluttered roughly.
“This is a magic formation.”
The Crown Prince who was silently watching spat out its true nature.” Magic Array ……?”
It was while looking at the unfamiliar voice, blankly radiating blue patterns. Soon the wind stopped. The invisible power of the earthworm also dwindled in scope and disappeared without a sound. The noisy cave was unconsciously silent again.
“There was another restless person in the palace who used magic without permission. He was killed long ago.”
The Crown Prince said as he let go of my wrist that he was holding tightly. Just like he said, the state of the bones of the corpse standing in the center of the disappearing magic formation looked incredibly old at a glance. Was it preserved with magic?
The cave is rather humid, and remains that old are usually melted and unable to maintain their form. Moreover, it was amazing that even a good person could stand straight like that in the gusty winds.
“Why is …… missing from the waist down?”
Although mummies have occasionally been found standing upright, it’s possible that this was a wounded fetus that preserved the skin and muscles of the lower limbs.
But the ashes in front of me couldn’t be called a mummy at all. The ribs without a bit of flesh and the severed vertebrae look like they were before they were melted by the rock.” Is it because the remains of the melted rock water seeped into the rock crevices and stuck?” The crown prince observed the remains with an amused look.
“Because of the remaining magic power, the shape is still maintained.”
“Is that so?”
“In order to bind the soul to this place, it seems that one used one’s own body as a sacrifice needed for the magic formation.” Suddenly the Crown Prince opened his mouth to answer. It took me a moment to realize that I was mumbling.
“You’ve seen the skeleton a few times, right? See you’re not surprised.” He stared at me with amused eyes, observing the ashes with amusement.” Usually an animal is used instead …… of an author who was alive during the magic casting, and the body was half drawn and couldn’t hold out, as if dead.”
“The body …… split in half?”
I was surprised a step too late. Callisto shook his head and replied in a rushed manner.” To activate the magic array, you need to provide a strong life force.”
“…… Powerful life force?”
It’s the unleashing of the magic array and the life force, I don’t know anything about it.
What.” In hard mode, such things had been shown in detail.” And, an answer in a completely different direction than what I had presumed alarmed me. Not some fantasy movie, but how to bind a soul?
But I figured it out right away. This wasn’t reality, but a game where magic ran amok in real life.
“…… Why would that person want to bind souls to this place?” I guess you want this magic array to continue casting electricity after death? Trying to cast some kind of magic, but it should be powerful.
Callisto added with a frown.” Thank goodness this cub cut into the palace was killed in the middle.”
I nodded in agreement with that statement. Deep in the woods inside the palace, secretly trying to implement the hemp spell felt quite frightening.
The Crown Prince walked slowly along the position carved in the circular border of the magic formation and determined the state of the ashes.
“The soul that wanted to be tied up disappeared, leaving only the magic power in the body, as if it was left outside the magic array ……”
“Until now, it was able to activate the magic array, it seems to be the guy who was idle in life.” Presumably the horsepower is still there, and I understand that the ashes can be preserved as well as I can. No miscellaneous chemicals, only one horsepower is needed to preserve the remains …… “This is a magical and convenient world.
Just then–
Whoops.
With a faint vibration, another blue light began to draw clearly across the rock. The magical mass seemed to be trying to launch up again.” Danger, please step back for a moment, male daughter.”
Callisto ordered me as he held his arm out to me to stop it. I step back down to the bottom of the steps. Phyrexian Interest″! The moment the remaining magic power on the corpse was shaken by the magic array that started shaking.
The Crown Prince who drew his sword plunged it into the invisible vortex without mercy.
Clang!
A cacophonous explosion resounded through the cavern. The condensed wind and his sword suddenly attacked. The gale was so strong that the brilliant blonde hair fluttered mercilessly. But it didn’t seem to mind as the Crown Prince planted his sword on the ground and gazed into the air with wide eyes. Blue sparks flew “poof, poof” around him.
Soon after, the rock began to crack from where he had stuck his sword. The veil soon turned into deep crevices that stretched across the entire array of magic.
The wind gradually calmed down. The wildly fluctuating magic and mana really went “BAM!” Disappeared.
“Whew……”
The crown prince pulled out the sword that was stuck. It probably took quite a bit of effort, and a cold sweat was knotted on his forehead.
“…Is it all done, Your Highness?”
I asked as I lowered my hand due to the deafening sound.
“Completely destroyed.”
Callisto replied with a nod.” Now, let me see what kind of magic you want to cast.”
With his sword in his hand, he smoothly moved through the cracked rock. Separately, he held the remains of a thick scroll on the side of his thin arm.
“Hmm.”
Stopping in front of him, rubbing his chin in distress, he suddenly raised the blade in his hand. Most likely to cut the corpse.
That’s when I noticed what he was about to do, and widened my eyes, calling out.
“Wait, your highness!”
“…… Hmm?”
Callisto stopped and looked back at me. I panicked and ran to him.
“What now?” (Preparing to cut the arm bone.)
“Why?”
“I have to read the scroll to get a clue of what palace was used to carve out the magic formation.”
“You don’t have to take it out while destroying the remains.”
The crown prince seems like my words don’t understand at all and moves his eyebrows.” Then the male daughter will touch the corpse to take that out?”
“Yes.”
“…… What?”
“I’ll take it out for you.”
I nodded hurriedly. Great. In fact, unearthing human bones was one of the things I wanted to try. Coupled with the sword the crown prince swung, I couldn’t see for a moment that the form of the ashes had collapsed. These aren’t remains that have been preserved in a strange form for a long time.
“Please take a step back, Your Highness. Starting especially with that sword, clean it up quickly.” I quietly pushed the incredibly dangerous Crown Prince back.
“Huh.”
The Crown Prince seems to be exasperated and lets out a loud laugh.
“Sling″
But he obediently put his sword into its sheath. Stiff eyes said, “Look what you’re doing.” It seemed like it. I made sure he withdrew completely and stood frontally in front of the ashes. Then folded his hands in a brief moment of silence.
I’m sorry.” Let me touch your hand.”
Archaeologists are most nervous when they excavate human bones or graves. Unbelievable, because more than thinking, the paranormal happens a lot. As a result, pre-tests or prayers are often held before embarking on excavation work.” …… What are you doing?”
It was time to end the silence over the ashes. The crown prince, who had retreated his steps, unknowingly leaned close to the side and looked at me as if I was strange.
“Touching the ashes, so I prepared some examples.”
“Why did you do that?”
“Also wishing the deceased’s again the peace of the other world, it wouldn’t be wrong to pull out the relics.”
“You are doing useless things.”
The crown prince stared at me with strange eyes and narrowed his brows.” I didn’t realize a male daughter would be so superstitious.”
I immediately ignored the guy’s sarcasm.
Before excavation, a status survey was first needed. I bent down and took a closer look at the scroll and the knuckles holding it.
Possibly dead in its captured state, the scroll’s paper was rotting where it touched the bone. Foreign objects such as dust and sand were stuck around it.” Is there a pen or something?”
There’s no way there’s anything like that in this remote cave!
While looking around for tools, an idea flashed in my head. I placed the stone bow I was holding on the ground and took out the dagger I had brought back from my arms. Then, grabbing a handful of hair, I cut it violently, violently. At that moment.
“Male daughter!”
Whoosh.
The hand holding the dagger was grabbed.
“What are you doing?!”
