442 424. Not suddenly.

"Uh, are we done?

Mr. Nargas's bewildered voice sounds small in the cave.

All stare and solidify at Sol for so little darkness.

"I guess so. Wow. I wonder what that troubled time was."

To your father's words, Mr. Nargas nodded with a sigh.

By the time we got to the cave, we were discussing what to do if something went wrong, so I guess that's it.

"I didn't expect it to end so quickly... no one will think about it."

Mr. Pial looks over the cave as he sits on a large magic item nearby.

In a cave that doesn't look any different than it was just a few minutes ago.

There's just something different about it.

"You're in the wind."

Someone gaveled at my words, "Right".

After the magic line changed from black to white for a while, the wind flowed through the cave.

At first I was surprised, but I realized it was strange until earlier.

"You're kind of out of strength."

When Mr. Nargas crouches on the spot, Mr. Jaggi follows suit.

Mr. Early kept his back on the wall and your father sat down on the ground next to me, too.

"Whatever happens, I'm ready to do it."

Mr. Nargas and the others laugh bitterly at Mr. Pial's words.

"Cue! Cue!

A loud roar echoed in the cave.

Mr. Nargas and his men stand up and take their weapons.

Your father stands to shield me from his back when he takes his sword out of his sheath.

"Looks like Shami woke up"

Mr. Jaggi set his bow as he looked up.

When I looked up in a hurry, I could see Shami's countless eyes staring down at us.

I'm not sure how many, but quite a few shammies are turning this way to intimidate me.

"Cue! Cue!

"Cue! Cue!

"Cue! Cue!

"Cue! Cue!

Sharmi moving slowly and slowly.

Tension increases.

As I softly lift up the sol that was coming to my feet so as not to disturb me, I turn my gaze toward the entrance and exit of the cave.

"Ha ha!"

Ciel's intimidating ringing echoes through the cave.

The sharmies, who jumped up to that voice, fled in the opposite direction where they heard the ringing.

Seeing that escape, the force slowly falls out of the body hardened by fear.

I was just scared.

At last, I was also stunned by the chirping of Ciel.

"Looks like Ciel's here."

As your father raised his hand against Ciel, Ciel wore it right to our side.

To avoid irritating the shami, I had them waiting outside the cave, but I guess they heard the shami squeal.

"Thank you, Ciel. Thanks."

"Nya-yay."

Looking behind the cave, the shammies are solidifying to see what's going on here.

It kind of makes me feel a little pathetic.

"What do you want to do?

Ask Mr. Nargas, he sees the sharmies.

"With Ciel there, you don't seem to be going to attack me. I'd like to examine the cave a little bit, but what should I do?"

"In the meantime, once we're all out. You'd better not inspire the shammies."

Mr. Nargas agreed to your father's suggestion, so he heads outside with vigilance for the shammies.

Thanks to the fact that Ciel threatened me several times towards the back, I was able to safely escape the cave without being attacked.

"You'll be fine if we get this far. Shami and the others must be alert to Ciel."

Away to the critical point where you can see the entrance and exit of the cave, your father stops.

Mr. Nargas and the others, concerned about the cave, sat down (every one of them) and took out a break.

"Don't get tired of that tension after you're relieved"

Mr. Pial laughs bitterly at Mr. Early's words.

"It was a mistake to ease the tension in that place in the first place."

To Mr. Pial's words, Mr. Early as well as Mr. Nargas gave a small grin.

"What do we do? You're going back to the cave to find out?

"Sharmi is so excited about that, I think we should take a moment to find out. Um... no, it's nothing"

If Mr. Nargas thinks a little about your father's questions, he will answer them.

Reminds me of Shami's state of excitement, and it would certainly be safer to put aside time.

"Something bothering you?

"No, I'm fine. Why don't you go back to the village when you're settled?

Once again, Mr. Nargas sees the cave, so I turn my gaze to the cave too.

There is no way the shami is coming out of the cave, nor does it feel dangerous from a slight distance.

"Right, back."

When your father says so, he stands up and offers me his hand.

When I stood up with that hand, I could see Ciel turning her back a lot next door and relaxing her body.

Ciel, who I noticed watching, keeps giving me her head.

I stroke that head slowly.

Close your eyes to feel good, Siel ringing gruntly.

When I look at this face, I jump into a cave, and I feel that bloody look in my eyes is a lie.

For a moment, let's keep it to ourselves that our bodies were stiff when we saw Ciel.

"Ciel, I'm sorry. Thanks."

"Ni?"

The strange look on Ciel's face spills a grin.

I knew you'd prefer this one.

"Thank you. Shall we go home"

"Nya-yay."

…………

When I got to the captain's house, the captain was somehow pissed off at Mr. Etcher on the bed.

The fever seems to have gone up a little because I couldn't do it.

Mr. Gilmouth, sitting in a chair near the bed, stared at those two with a frightened look.

Sometimes, he sees Mr. Gilmouth as if the captain were asking for help, but he's not willing to help Mr. Gilmouth just by clapping his shoulders.

As far as the two of us are concerned, I don't get a bad impression.

There were rumors that you and Mr. Gilmouth were not close, but was that a lie?

Who the hell is the rumor that circulated it?

"Ha, I was scared. I almost got drugged."

The captain makes a sound of relief and puts him to bed.

"I'm sorry. Let me see what you got."

"Really."

Mr. Gilmouth nods at the words of the captain.

"Better luck than that. That would have been tough, wouldn't it?

Mr Nargas and the others give a subtle expression to the words of the captain.

The captain and Gilmouth, who saw it, looked at each other.

"Ahhh, you don't have to worry about failing. I'll think of something else."

Hmm?

Failure?

Leaning his neck at Mr. Gilmouth's words, the captain of the regiment and Mr. Gilmouth also give a strange look.

"The magic team was able to deactivate it safely, so there's no problem. It was easier than I was prepared for. It only takes about five minutes to deactivate."

"" Huh?

To your father's words, the captain and Mr. Gilmouth both frown at the same time.

"What do you mean, five minutes? Speaking of which, you came home fast."

As Mr. Gilmouth bewildered, check the clock.

"Are you sure you could have deactivated it in such a short time?

Mr Gilmouth was with me surprised that Mr Nargas said 'yes' to the Captain's question.

"Right.... an order to all members of the 'Ethereal'. Don't talk about what you've been through today. Even my people."

"" "" What ""

To the commander's sudden order, I am surprised, Mr. Nargas.

I was next door. I was surprised, too, and stared at the captain.

"I honestly don't know how big the magic formation is, but I understand that something pretty amazing has been done. I feel the need to hide what happened to Sol, but I feel the need to hide what happened to Ivy. So it is forbidden to speak even within your peers. Even if you're careful, you might find out by talking. That's an order, you got it!

To the words of the captain, Mr. Nargas and the others accepted the commands of the captain as soon as they gave him a stiff look.
