"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH..."Moonlight screamed on top of her lungs and squirmed as we fall into the ravine. I swallowed all of my screams because all of it is overtaken by Moonlight already. Maple seems to have her fair share of falling because she did not panic while we are falling, unlike Moonlight who seemed to be having the time of her life right now.
My nerves are now much tougher than my cowardly self last time. This fall is not that scary as it seems. Then, I noticed that we seemed to be falling at a slower pace. It seemed like we are descending from an elevator than falling. Is this Levitation Magic? Wow! So amazing!
"Did Moonlight activated Levitation Magic in accident?" Maple asked as she looked at Moonlight.
I frowned hearing this, Maple did not activate Levitation Magic? Moonlight can"t activate the magic in her state of panic. Just from a glance, it was clear that her mental state is not in a stable form to activate a magic. Even when we are slowing down, she does not have any intention of stopping her panic behavior.
We continue falling down and as we descended, I realized that we seemed to be floating than falling abruptly. It was like we are flying. Maple is confused so I doubt she is the one who caused this. I looked at Moonlight... and yeah, not her either. And as for me, it"s already impossible.
As we descended, I saw on the bottom that there seemed to be a big protruding ground that seemed to be connected to a cave. And it seems to be the place the woman told us. I can feel her mana presence when I tried using Mana Sense. Also, I sensed the familiar Mana of Catmod too. It looks like she did not lie indeed to us.
We descended right into the ground connecting to the cave. Moonlight, on the other hand, is still squirming even though she already landed safely. It was like she is being attacked by ants as she tried to keep on waving her hands and she keeps on rolling on the ground. She had her eyes closed and from the looks of it, she still didn"t realize that she already landed on the ground and she looks like an idiot squirming over there.
Maple pulls out her phone and aims the camera on Moonlight.
"Um...Maple-san, what are you doing?"
"I can"t miss this event to share it to the chat group. This hilarious thing only occurs once in a while. At least, I will be able to take revenge from the embarra.s.sing post about me that Moonlight shared with the chat group," Maple said grinning.
I facepalmed at Maple"s action. Why do these people love to act childish and do things like this? Oh well, I had no idea what is going on with their minds. I should just stay out of it.Moonlight, I will pray for your soul on this.
I entered the cave before the two. Since they are still busy doing those video thingee, I just need to go and check the cave out. Entering the cave, I realized that even though this place is devoid of sunlight, the light is still enough for anyone to see. Even normal people who has not brought their flashlights in this cave won"t be needing to turn it on. The whole place is brightly lit. It was like a primitive hallway or a corridor with torches lit up to allow visitors to enter.
As I walk in further, I saw the woman hooded earlier waiting for us. She did not wear her hood this time and reveals her face that is covered by her hood the entire time. She has the usual blonde hair and pointy ears that elves normally possess but she did not let her hair down. She put it on a bun which is pretty unusual to see because from what I know, most elves wear their hair down and only on a few occasions they put braid on their hair along with some hair ornaments but in this kind of style, I have not heard of it.
Her face is well proportionate and if not for her pointy ears, I would a.s.sume she is an American blonde. Her eyelashes are also long like she was wearing fake ones. Her lips are also thin but rosy. She was an elf that came out from the anime or a game with 3D CGS.
"Looks like you all followed. I thought you three chickened out," the mysterious woman said.
"One indeed chickened out. She is still outside trying to recover. She still thinks she is falling still.
"Oh... that was normal for first-timers. From the looks of it, you seemed to have experienced falling too, I presume?"
"Yeah, of course," as I remember the time I have been suspended in the air several times under a high tree by the bullies. Usually, it happens whenever I am knocked down and have lost my consciousness. Waking up, I saw myself tied up with my body upside down. That might have helped me overcome the fear of heights for some reason.
"Anyway, those two outside will be going in later. Let"s get inside first. Nekoyama is waiting for you and your companions," the elf said and led the way.
I nodded. Though I still did not drop my guard, I did not put it so high either or the elf will notice. I am still cautious if she leads us to a trap. It would be troublesome for me since Moonlight and Maple are still left outside. Although I knew that I can"t fight against this woman, I can still escape, let Itazura cast an illusion and run away with Hikari and the other two out of here. But I guess, those are all for naught. At the end of the cave, a cat who wears a monocle is currently chomping on a grilled fish on the stick. From the looks of it, he just finished his breakfast with all the fishes below his feet. When he saw me, he grinned and wave the bone of the fish.
