Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"My husband ......"

Gon looks at me with a puzzled expression on his face. I glance at his face and nod, meaning that I'll leave it to him for the time being. Then I turn my gaze back to the flowers in front of me.

Indeed, in the experiment at the Agartha Medical Research Institute, the flowers had completely disappeared. Remembering the image of that time, I set up a ward and activate my lvl. 5 fire magic.

...... In an instant, the flowers are gone. Before my eyes, only the pitch black ground spread out.

"It's the same..."

I hear Gon's weak voice. It seems to be the same as when I activated the warding stone I had given him. He says that all the flowers disappeared that time too, and that he and the Grand Dukes were overjoyed.

"Somehow, though, after a few days, those flowers will appear again ......."

Gong's words had a ring of truth to them. I made a decision right away.

"May and Sadie. And let's get Serloitte up here."

"......"

Gon bowed his head slowly and silently. As I watched him, I activated the transfer warding.

I activated the transfer wards as I watched him.

"......"

A few minutes later, I returned to this place with three women. They looked surprised to hear my story, but soon regained their composure and said let's go see the site. I was a little surprised to see that May and Siddy had the same response. On the other hand, Serloitte just looked at me with a blank expression on her face, as if she didn't know what the hell was going on.

When we arrived at the site, Sadie first turned her sharp eyes on the flowers and muttered "evil ......" in a small voice without saying anything to anyone. May reacted to his words. She slowly gets down on her knees and carefully examines the soil in front of her. Serloitte sees this and observes the soil in the same way as May. Siddee keeps her eyes fixed on the pitch black ground, moving her eyes busily.

Eventually, May drops the soil on her palm and flaps her hand. A cloud of dirt and smoke billowed up from her hands.

"This is ...... something, isn't it?

Suddenly, an old man's voice is heard. Upon closer inspection, a gnome, the spirit with which she has a contract, appears at May's feet.

"I am sorry to have summoned you.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You can call on me anytime."

"Thank you. What do you think of this expanse of dirt ...... before your eyes?"

"Thank you very much, but this is not soil. It's volcanic ash. It's volcanic ash on top of soil, so it's not very nice.

"I agree."

May and Norm started talking about something difficult. Serloitte listened attentively to their conversation, nodding her head from time to time. It seems that he can understand this technical conversation.

Sidi, on the other hand, still folds his arms and keeps his eyes on the black dirt.

"Hey ......"

"There's just a hint of evil in this place."

Siddee interrupts me and suddenly opens her mouth. She quickly turns her gaze to Gon and continues to speak.

"Mr. Gon. Is this the only place where you used Master Linos' warding stone to make the flowers disappear?"

"No, there is one more place.

Please take me there.

"What?　No, that's ......."

Is there a problem?

"Haaaa ......"

Gon had a troubled expression on his face. When we wondered what was wrong, he said he had one condition and turned his head down again.

What's the condition?

"I want all of us to put up wards.

"Warding?　You've got it all stretched out, don't you?"

I don't mean that. I want you to put up wards that make me look like a different person. You see, ...... there are a lot of people here, so ......"

I see. Well, that's no use then. It's not as if anyone knows who I am. If they find out that I, May, and Serloitte are here in the Grand Duchy of Foal when we are supposed to be in Agartha, there is a good chance that we will be in a lot of trouble. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell Serloitte not to tell anyone about the transfer wards. I'll ask May to explain it gently later.

With this in mind, I rewire everyone.

"Okay then."

Gon, after checking the warding, takes out a warding stone from his pocket and places it on the ground with the effect of transfer warding. Immediately the scenery changes. At that moment, I let out a cry of surprise.

"What the hell!

Hundreds of armed soldiers stood in front of us with their backs to us. The sight was so unexpected that I couldn't help but scream. Moreover, as soon as they heard my voice, they turned around, and the atmosphere became very awkward.

"What's the matter with you people? Stay back."

One of the soldiers spits out a few words in a troublesome manner, with an expression on his face as if to say, "Don't bother me. Looking closer, they see a large white house standing in front of them.

"...... sir, sir."

Gong tugs at the hem of my dress and murmurs in a small voice. He takes us some distance away.

"What the hell is that?"

From a distance, I saw a rather large building covered with cloth and surrounded by soldiers. It is not half so impressive.

"Dear Fantastic ......"

Suddenly, Serloitte opened her mouth. She is looking at the house with her hands clasped over her mouth.

"That's right, sir. That is the residence of the Duke Fantastic of the Grand Duchy of Foal. It is another place where the flower of friendship is in bloom.

I mean, why are you surrounded by soldiers?

"The Grand Duke has ordered the house to be completely closed, but those who do not accept his order have holed up in the house.

"Huh?　What's that?　Who is it that is holed up?"

"My name is Duchess."

"......"

Gong said that, among other things, friendly flowers were blooming in the garden of the mansion. In the presence of the Grand Dukes, he exterminated the friendly flowers in the garden of the residence of the Chamberlain de Lillein, and then went to the residence of the Duke Fantasie. The garden was huge and there were friendly flowers everywhere. In Lil Rain's mansion, the flowers were in bloom in clumps, so they could be exterminated in an instant, but in the Duke's garden, they were in bloom in pieces, so it was difficult to exterminate them. At that time, with a single word from the Grand Duke, the entire garden of the house was to be burned down, and Gong faithfully carried out the plan.

The duchess was stunned to see the scorched garden, but soon after, she had plants and flowers brought into the blackened garden one after another to make it presentable. The house is covered with cloth, which blocks the sun's rays, so the plants and flowers do not last very long. Still, she did not heed her husband's advice to leave the house, and as if possessed by something, she did not give up her obsession with the flowers and plants and worked diligently day after day to restore the garden. But the flowers of friendship bloomed again. Naturally, the Grand Duke forbade her to enter the house, but she stubbornly refused. In frustration, the Grand Duke dispatched soldiers to forcibly remove her.

"I hate to say this, but it's only one woman who is holed up in the house, right?　Can't we just get rid of them right away?"

But it seems that's not going to be the case, sir.

"What do you mean?"

It seems there is a warder inside, and he can't even enter the house.

"Huh?"

Upon closer inspection, it is indeed true that the entire mansion is covered with LV3 wards. Indeed, it would be difficult for a normal person to enter this mansion. If you ask me, the warding is still a bit uneven, but it's still a good warding.

"...... should we remove these wards anyway?"

Gon nodded his head in confusion at my words. I looked over to see May and Sidney nodding slowly, too.

"I guess I don't have a choice."

With that, I started walking toward the mansion. .......
