Chapter 83

Stone Bracelet of Sovereignity (の) is the eighty-third chapter of Yamada Kanehito & Abe Tsukasa's Sousou no Frieren.

Summary
Denken detailed the investigation Lernen had launched into El Dorado, after mentioning that he had entered El Dorado and left unscathed even after being found by Macht. Lernen recruited Second class mage Edel with him on his quest to investigate El Dorado, to which Edel reluctantly agreed, while citing that she could not possibly investigate a demon. He presented her with the replica of the Stone Bracelet of Sovereignty, the only magical item that is capable of controlling a demon's mind. Apparently, the ruler of the city of Weise used the Stone Bracelet to freely control Macht, until the demon resisted and transmuted the whole city into gold. He informed Edel that Macht of El Dorado was rumored to still be wearing the bracelet and asked her to study its enchantment in an attempt restoring the bracelet.

Afterwards, they traveled to the area outside El Dorado where they encounter Second-class mage Fruh, who was part of the party of mages Lernen had asked to conduct a preliminary examination in El Dorado. Fruh told them that their party encountered Macht inside El Dorado and was wiped out in the blink of an eye. Lernen then asked why she was able to escape, or why Macht had let her flee. Before she could form a reply, Fruh was transmuted into gold too quickly that Edel could not read her memory. Lernen stated that Macht probably delayed her transformation as a warning to outsiders and that they had underestimated Macht.

Plot Details
For some reason, Denken did not seem to draw aggression from Macht. He was able to enter El Dorado and leave unscathed even though Macht had found him.

Macht is equipped with the Stone Bracelet of Sovereignty, a magical item capable of controlling a demon's mind. It is said that the feudal lord of Weise used it on him to "gain unfathomable wealth".
