Chapter 23 [The carelessness of Water and Moon Labyrinth]

TL : Cnine

ED :

Part 1

「……………. Dead end, huh?」

The man’s overtaking me who’s walking slowly in full alert, and then, muttering so while surveying the wall of the hall from the center.

Practically, it’s a hall that’s seems like a dead end.



But, it was a let-down since we found nothing so far in this un-travelled area.

No, rather my wishing for there’s to be something, that kind of thinking is that of human.

Well, though this something is impossible to coming out in certain meaning, I even think that maybe it’s already left this place……………

In short, that something was the 《Dragon》 which I met.

But, when it comes to this case, as expected, there’s already nothing in this place.

That’s made me feel lonely.

That’s why, I’ll try to walking around with the man with a feeling “isn’t there might be something else” at least.

Thereupon,

「……….. OI! There’s a crevice in this place! 」

That man was shouting to me.

Did he just found something, when I’m approaching that man place, I see, there was a crevice on the wall that have pointed by the man.

When I bring my face closer, I can feel the wind from a little skin that jutted out of my mask.

………… Something, was there huh.

So I feel, when I’m tinkering with the wall, “CLINK”, one part of the wall is sunk as if pushed by something, after that, one part of the wall is slowly rising while making a creaking sound, and there, a new pa.s.sage is appeared.

「………. A HIdDEn Pa.s.saGe hUh」

「……. Ooh, That seems so……… But, seriously. There’s a hidden pa.s.sage in addition to a new pa.s.sage………. If we’re reporting this to the Adventurer Guild(Guild), isn’t this will become a fortune? 」

The possibility to become so isn’t low.

You can do something or another even to your debt with this, I think of that while unintentionally looking at the man, that man is fl.u.s.tered.

「N-No! Of course I know this is your discovery!  I just coming to this place, I’m not even beating one demon.  I won’t say anything like we found this together…………..」

He’s trying to say something humble while shaking his head.

I don’t even mind about that when we’re already by this point, though I get the feeling as if he’s about to requesting a bit of share after coming this far, it seems this man was a honest one.

Well, though I want money too, there’s a limit in how I can use it with this kind of appearance.

It’s okay since I’ve made a plan to gathering money slowly even if I can’t get a big one in one go with this place.

Though I can feel that I’m a bit too nice, in the first place, it’s because this matter can’t be reported to the Adventurer Guild(Guild) by me……………

「……. I DoN"t tO GiVE yOur ShaRE tO yoU……….. ThaT’S FOr LatER ThOugh…………..」

Part 2

The pa.s.sage is still going on.

That’s made me feel anxious.

Without hearing the man reply, I started to walk again.

Even if it’s a hidden pa.s.sage, it’s wasn’t any different from the pa.s.sage that they’re pa.s.sed by up till now.

Though the amount and the quality of the demons are risen, at most it was at the level of Poison Slime or Bone Soldier(Skeleton Soldier).

Though I won’t say that they’re as far as small fry for the current me, they’re nothing more than an opponent who I can beat with plenty enough safety margin.

Moreover, the hidden pa.s.sage is short and we’re arrived at open s.p.a.ce right away.

Now then, will a 《Dragon》 appearing again, though I walked through it while feeling frightened, my worry was useless.

It doesn’t mean that It’s just as simple as “there’s really nothing here“, there was a magic square engraved in the center of the room.

That’s something unusual but, it doesn’t mean that it’s not completely unusual.

In the depth of a great labyrinth, there’s a case where it’s the mechanism to advance and you canmoreover it’s depending on where you get on it, or so they said.

Even the magic square engraved in this place too, there’s a possibility that it have those sort of function.

Though it was the first time I see it………

But, the man who walking in the similiar room is,

「……….. It’s an empty room again. Is there a hidden room again?  」

Muttering those words.

Nevertheless, he really is didn’t see the magic square that was engraved on the ground.

「…………. YoU………………?」

I call him, even when I’m pointing below his feet, the man show no reaction.

On the contrary, he’s tilting his head as if unable to understand what I want to say.

「………… Was there, something in this room?」

In the end he was asking to me.

Thereupon, I knew that somehow the magic square is something that can’t be seen by the man.

But, even if I knew that, what can I say.

Though it can’t be seen by the man, it might be no one but me who can see it, is another person other than mee will be able to see it.

That’s something that I don’t understand.

But, to easily getting on the magic square in this kind of situation for the sake of testing out it’s function is scary …………

So, when I’m pondering about it, the man has come approaching to looking at me who’ve been thinking.

And then in doing so, he made up my mind and stepping on the magic square.

「…… AH……..」

That moment, the magic square is casting out a bright light, and then, the man was swallowed by that light, and vanished.

Seeing that, I’m regretting my action.

It should be okay if I’m stepping up first, or, I should at least cautioned him.

But, this kind of regret is useless at this late hours.

Maybe I should thinking of what should I do after this right.

Part 3

Fortunately, thanks to the man stepped on the magic square, I’m more or less understand it’s effect.

By chance, it seems to be a transfer magic square.

According to my experience, an exceptionally unique magic square can transfer you to selected location.

It seems that it’s employed at every 10 layer or 5 layer in the great labyrinth which have dozens layer, and unfortunately it can’t be made by the hand of human.

It seems that they can’t get it to start even if they’re mimicking the magic square, also, it seems that the magic square itself have different structure than the magic square being employed by human, and it seems it can’t be a.n.a.lyzed.

Even so, many people are doing research about it, it seems they’re trying to recreate it with human hands but, right now the prospect isn’t that good.

That’s the way it is.

In short, that is the labyrinth limited article, I can’t even investigating in regard to the previous jump.

I won’t understand unless I’m getting on it.

That’s the way it is.

In short, currently there’s two option before me.

Should I chasing after that man, or abandoning him.

If it’s the one you call as the cautious action, abandoning him is the right answer right.

If I’m getting on that and then jumping to the unexpected place, moreover it’s because I can’t even looking if it came to the point that there’s no going back*. [TL* :  But, the matter of abandoning him is…………

In the first place, speaking of the cause, it’s because I’m not properly giving a warning to him despite seeing the magic square is the cause.

And yet. he have an anxiety because I’m gonna abandoning him when we’re returning.

Moreover, it doesn’t mean that it decided that we absolutely will be coming back.

I have confirmed the so called the possibility for coming and going with two directional transfer in the memories regarding the information of the transfer formation.

But, I couldn’t tell such knowledge, such the way it is to that man*. [TL* :  Anyhow, he’s been lacking the basic knowledge as an adventurer.

I never expect that the thing about the information of transfer formation which laying in stock will have it’s use here.

Moreover, it can’t be seen by that man.

When I’m thinking so, for example, even if that transfer formation of two directional formula, I’m not expecting the matter of returning by myself…….

「……… s.h.i.t…………」

The more I’m thinking about it, the more I’m regretting it.

And then, since it’s already came to this, I decided to do it.

It’s better than feeling uneasy because I’m running away with tail between my leg by abandoning him in this place……….

I’m walking steadily to the place of the transfer formation, and then after staring at the magic square which releasing a pale light, I’m stepping on it.

As I thought, the light of magic square is increasing, and then, it immediately expanded it’s size to the point of covering my field of vision.

Part 4

Ah, I"m transferred.

Despite I’m getting on it by my own choice, I’ve various anxiety.

But, since it already come to this, it can’t be helped then.

Please make the place I jumped to is a safe place.

I couldn’t do anything but to pray.
