April 13, 2022Zathael “Queen, prepare for a sacrifice“1 As I give my orders, Haruka finally recovers from Queen’s overwhelming mana, “What do you mean by that” She raises her hand meekly. “A direct translation is [Self Sacrifice] but in chess terms it means to [to give up a piece in order to gain an advantageous position]”2
Maya-chan, who is sitting next to Haruka, explains. It seems Maya-chan doesn’t play chess anymore but when she was a child I heard she often played with her grandfather. “Since the Lithomanmari Trade Association is quite far from here, the enemy must be planning to make me use teleportation magic” The exit for teleportation magic appears first, making it easier for enemies to detect. Not to mention that until the caster is fully transported, they are unable to use magic.
If you try and force it you could end up stuck inside a sub dimension, and at worst you may end up drifting though time as a [Lost Child of Time]. “Purposely drawing me here was probably also part of their plan to make me use teleportation magic”
