Somehow, The Villainess Who Regressed in Time Lost Her Magic Power, so She Turned into a Secluded Maiden - 151 2 ‐ 33 Louisiana Perspective

We briefed Theodore and the others who helped us on our meeting with Rachel, and we left Torsova Magic School later.

When they arrived at the royal palace, Theodor and I sat on the sofa across the table from the prince’s office for future consultations.

“Louis told me how it happened. So, what do we do now? Do you have any guesses?”

“Ah. According to Rachel, Rachel is now in the Temple of the Dark Spirit King.”

“Is it the temple of the Spirit King?” Louis and I cannot enter the land of spirits inhabited by dark spirits, because the magic power of light is so strong. ”

That’s the biggest problem.

I and Theodore have a strong magical power of the opposite nature of darkness. It was difficult to sense the power of darkness. It may be possible to sense it as much as Theodore, but it will be difficult to enter the Land of Spirits.

But I remembered one more thing when I saw Rachel. That could be the key to getting to Rachel.

“Theodore, don’t ever say what you’re about to see.”

“… but what? Are you hiding something like that?”

My words distort Theodore’s face in dislike. While looking sideways at it, a smile leaked out.

It’s not a bad idea, but you have to come here for now.

I got up from the sofa and was able to use my magic while touching a book on a bookshelf attached to the wall of the office. Then the bookshelf moves slowly.

“Hidden passageway.”

“It’s you, so you knew what was here, didn’t you?” I was looking into this bookshelf for a while, interestingly. ”

Well, it’s thin, but you didn’t release it.

A hallway appeared in the space where the bookshelf was originally located. It is one of the many hidden passages in the so-called Royal Palace.

This aisle that has just emerged is not connected to an important place, but there is still a lot of teasing in this prince’s office.

Also, the hidden passages are all using special techniques, so if you don’t know all the way in, you may not even be able to come back.

As I made my way, a path divided from side to side emerged again and again, but I kept moving without hesitation. Then, when you stop in front of a door, you take the key out of your pocket and enter the room.

I glanced back at Theodor as he followed me silently behind me, and I walked straight to where I wanted to go.

“Where are we? I didn’t know there was a room like this.”

“This room is where the artworks are kept.”

“You’re under the spell of light.” It seems that there are many things related to the spirit of light that I saw in a flash.

“Ah, only the royal family knows the magic of light, with the exception of Theodore.”

Theodor’s eyes shine interestingly, and he carefully observes the paintings and sculptures around him.

It’s pretty strict, isn’t it?

“Of course I do. Only the King and the Prince have the keys to enter here.”

“Come on, can I come into such an important room?”

“… that’s what I’m talking about now.” How much do you know about secrets that only the royal family knows, you? ”

Theodor shrugged his shoulders at me, unexpectedly sighing.

“Ah, there it is…. what I want you to see is this painting.”

In the back of the room, I stopped in front of a small painting that was secretly hanging on the wall. It was a long time since I came to this room, and this is the painting that I forgot about until I came back to the royal palace.

“… oh, no way”

Theodore, who stood beside me, looked at the painting and took a breath.

“Ah, yes. I thought the place where the Dark Spirit King took me, and where Rachel was, was depicted.”

Keep looking at the picture in front of you with your hand on your chin.

When I met Rachel, I couldn’t help but observe the surroundings with the joy of meeting her and the impatience of the time limit. But once again, I feel that the tip that floated up with something like a glass box resembled this painting.

“The title is… [Space-Time Room]?” Who painted this? ”

“I don’t know all the details.”

“And where did this title come from?”

“No, I don’t know. When Rachel had a contract with Kuro, she read all the forbidden books that only the royal family could see in order to find out about the Dark Spirit.” However, it was not written that there was a space-time room. There is no way to know where this space-time room is. On the contrary, it is not certain whether there is a presence or not. ”

But the person in the center isn’t the Dark Spirit King, is it?

When I turned my gaze back to the painting, there was the figure of the Spirit King of Light who placed his hand on the shining star, as if he were controlling countless stars.

“If this painting itself depicts a chamber in space-time, then where was Rachel… that is, where I was sent by the Dark Spirit King?”… no, but it was the temple of the Dark Spirit King. ”

Theodor, who was next to him, took a step forward as he spoke to himself. And I looked at the painting for a while, trying to concentrate.

“No, wait, it’s possible.”

“Is it possible that this painting and Rachel were in the same place?”

“… if it’s called the Space-Time Room, is this room itself a room of light and darkness?” No, it’s better to leave the reason for the existence of the room for now. ”

My enquiries did not seem to reach Theodor, who concentrated.

It was Theodore who sometimes thought deeply as if he was thinking about something, but he looked back at me as if he had noticed something.

“I see! Light and darkness have the same nature of manipulating time.” In other words, are there two spatiotemporal rooms?… or maybe it’s connected. ”

– Is there a room that connects directly to light and darkness?

Theodor muttered in a small voice to repeat his words.

“The chambers of time and space are connected…. then is there any hope…?”

“What would you do if you were? The Spirit King of Light never answered our call. Do you want to perform the Spirit Summoning ritual again?”

No, I’ve done it again, and the Spirit King of Light won’t appear.

That face looks like you’re already thinking about your next hand.

“Ah…. I think I’ll use this.”

I searched my neck and pulled the chain out from under my clothes. I usually hide it under my clothes, but I always wear it without letting go of my skin.

A silver pendant engraved with the royal sigil sparkled as the chain was taken out and reflected on the slightest light in the room. The pendant opens and closes, and when the silver cover is opened, a yellow magic stone settles inside.

I see. You must summon your contract spirit.

“I’ve slept a lot, so I hope you’re in a good mood.”

I slowly stroked the eagle’s crest engraved on the magic stone. When I think of the contract spirits that I haven’t seen for a few years, I naturally smile.

“Come on, it’s time to get up.”

As I gently called out my voice, my magic stone was overflowing with sparkling light. The light shaped a large lump and went round me and Theodor.

Peeeee

“All right, good boy. Come on.”

The light came to a halt on my arm as it echoed through the room.

And when the light gradually subsided to be absorbed by the whistling spirit itself, it appeared.

It’s my contract spirit, the figure of an eagle.
