Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"You're alive ......, Mr. Linos ......."

It was Peris who responded to Linos' words. She witnessed the whole process of Rico and Soleil being swallowed up. It was unbelievable to her that they were still alive.

But Linos had a strong light in his eyes. The look in his eyes told us that he was not lying.

"I will live, I will live."

"But, Master Linos, ......"

Peris opens his mouth, alternately looking at Linos and the people around him. May, sensing this, opens her mouth.

"Sidie-chan just told me what happened. Rico-sama and Soleil-san were not chewed up but swallowed whole, weren't they?

"Yes, it looked that way."

Perlis replies, puzzled.

"And, then, there is a possibility that he is still alive. ......"

When May had said that much, she quietly turned her gaze to Linos. Even for her, the possibility that Rico and Soleil were still alive was close to zero.

A dragon is a creature that can eat anything. They have strong gastric juices that can decompose even highly toxic substances. Thus, once a human being is swallowed into its body, it melts away in just a few minutes. Moreover, dragons try to thoroughly absorb nutrients from the food they swallow. Therefore, it was easy to imagine that Rico and May's bodies would still be in Royce's belly, but they would no longer be in human form.

However, Linos says with certainty that it is alive. May silently asks him to explain where the reason for this lies.

The wards I put on you two are working properly.

Linos said this in a few short words. He looked confident and relieved.

I could feel their magic power. They are alive and well, protected by my wards. Just ......."

After saying that much, Linos cut off his speech and turned his attention to the black dragon vine lying on the dining room floor.

"I don't know where the dragon that ate them is," he said.

Tsune kept eye contact with Linos and did not move an inch. It was obvious to everyone that he did not want to talk.

"Space ......"

Suddenly, I heard a voice. I looked in the direction of the voice, and there was Shario.

"My brother in there is a master of spatial magic.

"Sha, Shario!"

Tsune's eyes are wide open. He seems to be telling her not to say anything. But she takes one look at Tsune and continues talking with a calm expression on her face.

The brother in the middle is hiding in the space we have created. It will be difficult to find him. It is also ...... difficult to determine if the swallowed person is alive or not."

"No, he's alive. "No, he's alive. I'm sure of it."

Linos responds immediately to Chario's words. His confidence in his words makes Chario's expression of surprise.

"It's just that ...... I've been doing my best to detect his presence and magic, but I have no idea where he is.

"I'm sure my brother in there is somewhere near this mansion."

What?　How can you be so sure?"

"I'm sure that black dragon is after Alyria."

Sidi opens his mouth in a resolute manner. Chario nods broadly at his words.

The brother in the middle wants this girl. He was going to eat Siljus and this child without any hesitation. He will surely come again to devour this child.

"Wow, I'm the one ...... I'm the one ......"

Allyria opened her mouth in a desperate, almost pleading manner, but Sidi slowly shook his head.

"Unfortunately, I have a feeling that Allyria's plan to act as a decoy will fail. Your intuition is telling you that.

Alyria's face crumpled as she looked at him. She buried her face in May's chest and began to cry aloud.

Linos slowly opened his mouth as he watched.

The biggest problem is that there is no way to break through the black dragon's space. He slipped through my wards that I had put up with all my might without any damage. It must be because of the spatial magic. If we don't do something about that magic, it will be difficult to save Rico and Soleil. ......"

"...... I think we should make a sword that can cut through space."

May answers immediately. Linos's expression changes to one of understanding.

"A sword that cuts through space. ......

"Yes. This is just a theory, I've never actually tried it, but ......"

"Rioe's theory ......, right?"

Sidi interjects. May nodded slowly.

"It's a theory that was proposed about 900 years ago. It is a theory advocated by the genius blacksmith Lioe Aura, and is said to be unrealizable. The sword is made by melting Jargalan stones, but it must be struck so that it is perfectly even. Besides, it has to be so sharp that one or two blacksmiths can't do it ......"

When he said that, Sidi's movements stopped.

"What's wrong, Sidney?"

"I might be able to do it. Right, Mei?"

Sidi turns his attention to May. She nodded slowly.

"The sharpest sword in the world already exists. It is the Holy Sword that Master Linos has. You can make a sword based on it at ......."

"The Holy Sword is coated with melted jalgaran, and then it is forged. However, it must be forged evenly, so you need the best blacksmithing skills in the world. With the cooperation of the Dwarf King, I think it may be possible.

"Then we'll be fine."

Sidhi puffed out his chest with confidence.

"There is not a chance in the world that your father will refuse. Don't worry, I'll convince him. If your father hammers and Mei and I help him, I'm sure we can make a sword that can cut through space. Just go to ......."

"Just what, Sidney?"

It will take me a week to make it up.

"A week ......"

Linos's expression suddenly becomes cloudy. He was sure that Rico and Soleil were alive, but if he asked himself if they could last a week without eating or drinking, the answer was no. He was sure that Rico and Soleil were alive, but if he asked himself if they could last a week without eating or drinking, the answer was no. Linos bit his lip.

"Wait a minute, Siddee. If we increase the number of people, won't we be able to shorten that period of time?"

"With all due respect, Mei, I don't think there is a blacksmith in the world as skilled as your father, me, and you. ......"

"No, there is one. Mr. Galtor."

"Your brother?"

Yes. The other day, Master Galtor sent ten scalpels for dissection to the University of Agartha. All of them were made by Mr. Galtor. All of the scalpels were of uniform thickness and were of excellent sharpness. I don't mean to be rude, but I think his skills are comparable to those of the Dwarf King."

"I see, you're my brother. ......"

Sidhi puts his index finger under his chin and makes a pose as if he is trying to deduce something. After a while she nodded slowly.

"If your father and brother ...... and I and Mei take turns typing, we can save a lot of time. ....... Assuming it takes right now,...... three days. I think we can do it in three days."

"Sidney. You need to get on it right away."

Linos' decision was quick. He asked Chario to tell him more about Royce's spatial magic and ordered Tsune, who was lying on the floor, to tell him what he knew. Then he opened his mouth in a slow, calm voice, looking at the whole family.

"It's going to be a very dangerous battle from now on," he said. Let's get the family ......, especially the children, somewhere safe. We're going to be separated for a bit. ......

His words took everyone's breath away.
