Episode 026 What, It's Just 2P's Color?
"Nowaaaaaaaaaa!!"
Falling, falling, falling.
I don't know how far I fell, but I didn't feel any particular danger. I think that the fact that intuition didn't work means it's probably something that can be managed.
Is this a pitfall?
I hear that there is such a trap in the dungeon.
But it's awfully long for that.
Then, when I fell for several tens of seconds, I could see the ground. By the way, I could discern the surroundings despite the only light source being from where I fell.
This may be due to my 'Five Senses' improving my eyesight.
Obviously, when I was able to see with an ability beyond humans, I felt that explorers are really amazing.

I landed on the floor as if my feet would pierce the ground, but the floor didn't sink. There doesn't seem to be a problem with my body either. I don't know how high I fell from, but I was able to land unscathed.
"Fuu, I arrived."
I stop thinking and look around.
It's dim compared to the original labyrinth dungeon, but the structure itself seems to be the same. Looking up, the hole I fell from had already begun to close and was about to close completely very soon.
"Should I look for an exit for the time being ..."
I don't think there will be any help if I wait here, so I decided to go ahead. There are more signs of enemies than in the original dungeon. It might be a setting of the trap, so it may be stricter than usual.
I will continue to be on guard in the dungeon that looks a little dim. I walk for about a minute and approach the place where the presence of a monster is about 10 meters away, and look out from the corner to see what kind of monster is there.
"That is ... Black ... Kobolin?"
Kobolin, who normally roamed the dungeon, was dressed in only a ragged cloth, but this Black Kobolin wore fine armor and had a curved-sword in its hand. And it was wandering around.
Looking aorund while moving its nose, it may be reconnaissance or something, but it seems that it hasn't found me behind it.
It's a straight path from the place where I fell. I can't move on unless I pass through the place where this Kobolin is.
"OK ... I'll go."
I focused and slowly approached the back of the Black Kobolin, the original Black Kobolin. Fortunately, I was able to get close enough to be in the range of my attack without it noticing at all.
"Haa!!"
-Paan!!
When I lightly swung my fist, the Black Kobolin burst like any other monster I met in this dungeon.
"As expected, I'm not happy about it ..."
Since I'm in a trap, I was wary of some strong enemies, but when I actually tried it out, it wasn't much different from the normal dungeon.
It just looked different from the normal dungeon.
"Uoooooooooo!!"
However, the size of the fallen magic stone was different from the normal dungeon, and a magic stone with a diameter of about 5cm had fallen and I shouted with excitement. It was larger than the magic stone of an E-rank monster with a diameter of about 1.5 cm, and it was a big difference from the F-rank dungeon, which was about the size of the tip of my little finger.
"How much will this be ..."
A magic stone of a size I had never seen before made me shout.
Even so, if I just defeat a monster that is no different from a normal Kobolin, I can get such a big magic stone, this monster may be a reward to be paid only to those who have overcome the trail of pretending to be a trap and overcoming the fear of something different.
After that, I continued to defeat the black monsters whose equipment has become flashy, and continue on the path to the depths that my intuition tells me. Every monster dropped a magic stone the same size as the Black Kobolin, which made me feel exhilarated.
"It would be great if I could get out of here ..."
I put the magic stone in my backpack, but it was almost full, and if I can't go and cash them in, it's just a stone. So I want to find a way out soon, but I still don't know how to escape.
"My intuition is definitely saying it's this way, but did I go the wrong way?"
I couldn't believe my intuition and was a little worried. However, at the moment I have nothing else I can rely on, so I decided to believe in my intuition and continue, and I went further into the depths.
