Chapter 14-Continue request and change

 

(TL:By Rafael)

 

 

 

"We have decided the policy to let you guys continue with the investigation."(Manuela)

 

 The third morning after my return, I was summoned to the control center and told by Manuela.

 

"What are the details?"(Yuki)

 

 

"I'd like to say complete exploration, but the main request is to investigate the interior locations."(Manuela)

 

 Manuela smokes a cigarette and looks up at the ceiling.

 

 

 

"They can't hold off the other adventurers for much longer."(Manuela)

 

 

 The official announcement of the new labyrinth, ......, "The Royal City of Dusk, Glad Shii-im," which we broadcasted, drew a great deal of attention.

 

 The number of viewers of the distribution was a whopping 50,000. If we do a simple calculation, it means that about 70% of the royal people with tablets have seen our first attack distribution.

 

There's a reason why the response has been so great, despite the fact that almost no treasures have been unearthed yet.

 

 This is because this labyrinth turned out to be an urban one, as many of them may be feeling the romance of the mysterious twilight city.

 

 Urban labyrinths, such as the Ruins of King Aurias' Castle, are the best places to find treasures.

 

 This is because one can find magical artifacts and treasures in the cities and castles themselves.

 

 There is a high probability that a large amount of treasure, not found in treasure chests, is left in the houses and castles that stand untouched.

 

 

 

 

 And the winner is the one who finds ...... them.

 

 

 

 

 In other words, if we continue to occupy this new labyrinth in the name of research, it will create a bad atmosphere.

 

 

 We're adventurers from Finis, and we're strangers here.

 

 

 To Duna's adventurers, we must look like outlaws trampling through the fresh snow.

 

 

 

"Understood, Ma'am. We'll re-enter tomorrow."(Yuki)

 

"I'm counting on you. The Royal City of Dusk...... is not looking good. You have to be very careful."(Manuela)

 

"Yes, Ma'am."(Yuki)

 

 

 I nodded to Manuela and left the table.

 

 

 Then I remembered about the little housemate.

 

 

 

"What about the little fellow?"(Yuki)

 

Hmm?Oh, I haven't heard from her yet. I think she might be an orphan."(Manuela)

 

"Well, ....... Please keep me posted."(Yuki)

 

"Okay."(Manuela)

 

 

 In the end, They still don't know anything about her either.

 

 

 While we're in the labyrinth, we'll have to keep her at the Rescue Hospital, but her expression has been getting brighter lately.

 

 I'm sure she'll be fine.

 

"Oh, that's right. I've already taken care of that matter. It's a bold move, isn't it?"(Manuela)

 

"I can't help but be tricky with noblemen and royalty, you know."(Yuki)

 

"Hmm. You must be the son of a saga after all."(Manuela)

 

 I bowed lightly at Manuela, who raised the corner of her mouth, and left the command center.

 

 

 

 

 On our way to our cottage across the increasingly hectic campsite, I looked over and saw that another campsite had been established at the entrance to the camp.

 

 

 


 

 They were adventurers waiting for the dungeon to open.

 

 

 

 Some of them cast sharp glances at me as I walked by.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ...... This is definitely something we might want to hurry up with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"All right, let's begin the second survey attack."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 As planned, we started our preparations as soon as the sun rose, and after a good breakfast, we were standing in front of the underground canal.

 

 

 

"This time, we're going to investigate the location of Glad Shii-im. As I explained yesterday, our goals are to determine the size of the city, investigate the demon monsters that inhabit it, and if possible, investigate that castle first."(Yuki)

 

"I wonder if there are any demon monsters. ......"(Marina)

 

 

 Myabe she remembered the feeling of slashing the chain man, but Marina looked a little nervous.

 

"It would be a good thing if there aren't any,....... But there is also the matter of Loge. We don't know what's out there. Let's be careful."(Yuki)

 

"Oh, Yuk-san."(Nene)

 

 Nene raises her hand.

 

"What's up?"(Yuki)

 

"I have a suggestion. I'd like for us to take control of one of the buildings when we get there."(Nene)

 

"...... I see. We'll do that."(Yuki)

 


 

 

 Nene's suggestion might be a good one.

 

 The first thing we can do is to check if we can enter those buildings.

 

In fact, some labyrinths are just rocks or walls that look like buildings.

 

 

 

 

 Secondly, if we can climb up to the roof, we can get an idea of the size of the city.

 

 

 

 We can also see the castle, and if I ask Rain to use the Telescope Eye magic, she should be able to see a large area.

 

"Okay, let's go. Commence delivery."(Yuki)

 

 Everyone nodded at my confirmation.

 

 We've made enough preparations. All we have to do is proceed as usual.

 

 

 

"We'll go by the shortest route?."(Nene)

 

"Yeah, I'm counting on you."(Yuki)

 

 Just in case, I asked Nene to take a precaution.

 

 There is a possibility that the chain man has reappeared, or perhaps the waterway itself has changed.

 

 As long as there is a hint of colorless darkness, we should be wary of it. ...... However, it seems that this idea was unfounded.

 

 The quiet waterway remains tranquil, and there is no sign of the chain man.

 

 

 We were able to reach the front of the stairs in a very short time without any problems.

 

"It's finally here."(Silk)

 

 Silk looks up at the top of the stairs and looks at me nervously.

 

 

 She seemed to be worried that I would be consumed by the trauma again.

 

 

"I'm fine, no problem."(Yuki)

 

 

 It's not a problem, but the twilight light is a little bigger than last time.

 

 Maybe it is twilight, but time is passing.

 

 Let's compare the streaming video when we get back.

 

 

"Let's go! I'm so excited."(Marina)

 

"Oh, wait!"(Nene)

 

 

 Marina walked cheerfully up the stairs, and Nene ran next to her.

 

"Oh, my God, you two! Don't break ranks!"(Silk)

 

 

 Silk chased after them.

 

 

 There was no sense of tension at all.

 

 

 No rather  they are distracting themselves 

 

 

"...... Well, here comes the fun part."(Yuki)

 

"Yeah. Let's wish ourselves Good luck."(Rain)

 

 Rain, who is walking next to me, takes my hand.

 

 

 I walked up the stairs step by step, feeling my steps and feelings, which had been weighed down by the twilight light, become a little lighter.

 

 

" Yuki-san!"(Nene)

 

 Nene called out to me from the top of the stairs, looking alarmed.

 

 

 

"What's wrong?"(Yuki)

 

"There's something in the square! I don't know if it's a demon or not, but..."(Nene)

 

 

 Rain and I looked at each other, and we ran up the stairs.

 

TL Note- Looks like we will get to know more about the secret of Shii...whatever city.
