52 Lesson 51

Naruas' dagger cut the line.

"Is that a magic item"

"Yeah, it's what I made. It can't be used as a normal weapon because the sharpness is dull, but instead... it specializes in cutting barriers by magic in this way."

We will continue the task of cutting boundaries even as we speak, ensuring that there is as much room for each person to pass through.

"Once inside, the junction will be blocked, so you should wait in front of the junction, Horse."

"When something happens, do you want to remove the carriage body for easy movement?"

When the carriage is removed from Ed, the body is stored in the sub-empty depot.

"Ed, I'm gonna leave you another message, but you're gonna be okay, okay?

Ed nods naturally and moves a little off the road to a grassy spot and sits there.

"Ed, you're smart. You have a conversation with Lord Sorta."

"It's been like this since I first met you, you seem to understand all my words"

Sending his gaze to Ed, Ed was nodding again.

"Amazing......"

"You're my partner, let's just go inside."

Aotearoa urges the fingertips to the open part of the junction.

"Right, shall we come in"

As he went inside, Naruas looked back and went into the task of closing the junction.

There is no hard affirmation when it comes to work, magic into the knife earlier, and now we go through the broken part of the junction with the patterned part, not the blade tip.

"With this dagger, it's possible to repair it."

"It's convenient to be able to get in and out of a junction without having to disarm it... speaking of which, how do we get through a junction if it's a normal procedure? No way, not everyone has that dagger, right?

"The usual way is to come to me and borrow this dagger, or to break it with magic, as Lord Sota tried to do earlier. In that case, we need to repair it."

That's what I said when the restoration was over and I turned to Aotearoa.

"Other than that, there are many other magic items. There may be a lot of ways to use it."

"Do you mean that dagger is the easiest way to fix it, because you have a duty to repair it in any way"

Naruas nodded, offering his dagger to Ethereum if he was in the sheath.

"I still have a few bottles, so let me give one to Lord Sota. It's quite convenient."

"Thank you, it seems user-friendly."

Aside from the use shown by Naruas, Aotea was thinking of several ways to use it.

When the dagger is placed in the bag in the sub-empty storage, instead, the sixteen nights and the breastplate are removed and fitted.

"Shall we move on?"

Upon entering the cave, Aeta felt a sense of readiness.

"This feels... like the mountains I went to or the woods I met Arezel"

"Is something wrong...... I hope nothing"

I stop my legs and see the darkness spreading in the back, but there was just a quiet darkness spreading.

"First, we have to do something about this darkness."

When magic is applied to the hand, it creates a ball of light that illuminates the area and floats it a little further than overhead.

The amount of light was slightly suppressed, but still bright enough to grasp the area.

"I'm going to find out where we are. Still, it's better than being attacked from the dark."

"Well, you're less likely to miss a trap."

I will rely on that light to advance my steps.

The ball of light kept floating as it was, keeping the same sense of distance.

"How deep is this place?

"At the time I checked about two hundred years ago, I do think it was about twenty tiers. And then you wouldn't know anymore if it had spread."

"Where is Deena?

"... I do remember being on the ten tiers"

"Well, that sounds like it should be soon."

Aotearoa releases the magic mixed with intimidation in the direction of travel to increase the speed of progress once she stops her legs, reducing the number of demons that come to her attention.

"Shh, that's amazing magic. You can't come near a weak demon."

"Yeah, I'm gonna run a little bit, so follow me."

When Aotea said so, she set up sixteen nights on her right hand and ran out.

In a closed space called a cave, it was easy to read the wind flow, and the wind magic grasped the approximate creation.

Therefore, he was not lost in Ethereal's feet, but headed downstairs in a straight line.

Some demons missed on the road and others attacked after feeling the magic of Ethereum, but were slashed and laid down by sixteen nights.

"I don't know... I don't think it's my turn."

Naruas laughed bitterly.

"Did I say something?

While fighting, my hands and legs never stopped, nor did my progress slow down at all.

upstairs, third and fourth floors...... and going well.

Sometimes powerful monsters appeared along the way, but that was not the opponent of Ethereum or Naruas either.

Some of them withstood the blow of Aotearoa, but died in the next Naruas blow.

In the meantime, the two of them were proceeding without a word.

Aotearoa didn't slap him in vain to get to his destination, and Naruas was desperate not to be left behind by Aotearoa, who was going at an incredible speed.

Aeta stopped that leg when she reached the stairs descending from the ninth floor down.

"You haven't been late, that's the former A-rank adventurer."

"Ha ha, desperate, yes."

That's all I say, once I breathe heavily, I exhale.

"Huh, I didn't think you'd run through all at once without a break."

"It was a straight line of stairs on all the floors, so it wouldn't take that long, would it?

Naruas dropped his shoulder on Aotearoa's words.

"Ha, well, yes... for now, I know exactly what Lord Sota says is out of standard."

"Talking about Naruas, there was Deena on the next floor... don't feel powerful enough magic from here"

"Yeah, you can't compare to enemies so far."

Aotea lowered her back there when she laid two pairs of furs in front of the stairs.

"First, let's take a short break before we move on"

Pouring tea into the cup, he offered it in front of Naruas, who lowered his hips across the street.

"You should be fatigued, it has a little bit of a snowy leaf in it"

Think about the price of the now-sweetened leaves, about to erupt for a moment, but that's what I swallow for waste.

"I used to get a ton of them. I never thought I'd be such a valuable substitute."

The leaves of the snow tree were used as ingredients for various medicines and, even alone, had a great effect on the recovery of fatigue.

"Oh, really? I've been a little surprised because it's less circulating in the country these days."

Naruas wiped his mouth and was thinking about the scarcity of drinks in the cup without any weirdness at hand.

"Drink that and we'll start Operation Deena Retrieval."

Aotearoa's gaze was directed downstairs......
