Chapter 375: The Frozen World-1

Farah's POV

With the sudden statement of the bat girl, we have no choice but to become more cautious of the dungeon.

-This is not something simple... (Aya)

Aya frowned as she turned away from me.

-Wait for me a little, Farah. I will report this to my sister. (Aya)

I can't help but nod and let Aya go out to report the news.

-So...can you give me your drops of blood now, master? (Bat girl)

-Uhm... (Farah)

I look around and notice there are many people around us. I become a little shy and tell the bat girl.

-Let's do it later... (Farah)

-Why, master? (Bat girl)

I can't tell her that I was shy to do it here. So, I decide to change the topic.

-Well, let's have a look at that dungeon first! (Farah)

I turn my attention to the giant gate and stare at it.

I pull the bat girl and make her follow me.

-Let's go! (Farah)

The bat girl shows an annoyed face, but she still decides to follow me in the end.

-Nu... (Bat girl)

We eventually arrive at the gigantic gate. The soldiers who guarded the gate let us pass through since they knew my face.

-Miss Farah, you can only see the gate from afar. Please don't go inside the dungeon without informing us.

I raise both of my hands and try to rebuke them.

-I know! I am not a kid anymore. (Farah)

For some reason, the nearby soldier laughs at my reply. What? Was my statement that funny? I pout and head toward the gate to inspect the rune on the door.

-Urgh...Let's see. Huh? (Farah)

-What's wrong, my master? (Bat girl)

-I... (Farah)

The runes that reflect on my eyes start to reassemble themselves into something I can read.

"Unravel The Truth

Bypass The Impossible

Open The Key In Your Heart

Give Out The Correct Judgment

Find Out My Truth Name

Trial Of Humility"

The moment I usefully said the poem was written on the gate, the entire surrounding started shaking.

-Huh? (Farah)

-Master! (Bat girl)

The bat girl looks at me with a worried face. She tried to pull me away as she witnessed this weird phenomenon.

-Let's... (Bat girl)

Before she can finish her sentence, a light comes down and wraps nearby surroundings.

-Ahh! (Farah)

The next time I opened my eyes, I found myself in a room.

-Huh? (Farah)

When I looked at my surrounding, I found a girl with brown hair fainted nearby.

-She wore Ecrax's military uniform. She seems to be catching up with the incident. (Farah)

I feel guilty since this happened because I recited the poem on the gate. I go near the girl and shake her body.

-Hey...Are you alright? (Farah)

After shaking her body for a while, the girl eventually shows some reaction.

-Urgh... (???)

She tiredly opens her eyes and stares at me.

-W-who? (???)

The girl looks around and says in a shaking voice.

-I remembered the light and... (???)

I try to reassure her and pat her body gently.

-Calm down! We are safe here. (Farah)

-Hah... (???)

The girl takes a deep breath and looks at me.

-I'm sorry. (???)

I shake my head and deny it.

-It's normal for people to be scared about a sudden situation like this. (Farah)

-But you looked quite composed on the other hand. (???)

I scratch my head as I reply to her.

-Well, I'm pretty familiar with this. (Farah)

-Is that so? And who are you? (???)

-Ah, I'm sorry for the late introduction. My name is Farah! (Farah)

-I'm...You can call me Nise. (Nise)

-Nice to meet you, sister Nise. (Farah)

Sister Nise nods and stands up from her place.

-Where are we now? (Nise)

-We are inside the dungeon, sister. (Farah)

-Hmmm? Is that so? (Nise)

Sister Nise looks at the gate in front of us and says.

-Then, we have no choice but to go through the gate, right? (Nise)

-Yes? (Farah)

I look at the gate in front of me and then turn my attention to the surrounding.

-Right, I have no other choice aside from entering that gate. (Farah)

Well, from what Aya said to me. We would eventually be expelled out of the dungeon in a while.

-Let's go then, sister Nise. (Farah)

For some reason, sister Nise doesn't pay attention to me and stares at the ground. I have no choice but to follow her sight and look at the surrounding place under me. But I found nothing at all.

-Sister Nise? (Farah)

Sister Nise shakes her head and replies to me.

-Don't worry about me. I was just lost in my thought. (Nise)

-O...kay? (Farah)

I turned my back to sister Nise and walked into the gate.

-... (Nise)
