The day after the banquet, we were guided by cherry blossoms to see the attractions of Huadu.

"It's a beautiful flower"

Sakura nodded proudly when Tyra said as she was impressed.

"Uhm. This is an island specific tree that we call" cherry blossoms ". It blooms peachy beautiful flowers like this in spring"

Apparently there are cherry blossoms in this world as well.

"Clean! Shh! Shh!

"Can you eat?

Large garden.

There were dozens of cherry blossoms planted there, and now it seemed to be just in full bloom, with one side of the area covered in peaches.

"The name cherry blossoms is given by the name of this flower. It's a special flower for me too.... I'm glad you guys saw it when it was best."

"All right, let's take a look at the flowers. Bring me alcohol."

"... you drank a little last night."

When I suggest it, Tyra turns a blind eye.

"By the way, I don't remember after that..."

"... oh, don't think I need to remember"

Apparently, he doesn't remember last night's dementia.

"I'm a dust drinker too!

"Ellen, I drank the wrong water. I don't think you should."

Normally, you can't go wrong, but there's no choice because you're a stupid Ellen.

And it was when we were having such an exchange.

"… Cherry Blossoms, I have a few reports for you"

"What's up?

"They showed up again last night."

"What? Damn, I wish I had at least grown up about spring..."

A cherry blossom, reported to me by a soldier, looked abominably at me.

"What happened?

"No, this can also be described as a disgrace to our ghost tribe. Unfortunately, it's not something you can tell your guests."

"... I see. Did the bandits hurt you again?"

"Why did you do that?!?... No, it's about you. Are you still surprised?"

Sigh, cherry blossoms taught me not to cover it up.

"Purple Garden?"

"Mm-hmm. That's the name of the bandit's best friend who's been forcing his men to repeat looting acts here lately."

That's a bit of a feminine name.

"What kind of guy is he?

"Hate, he himself has been lurking in the mountains close to the capital, never seen it. My men run back to the mountains before the soldiers rush, so they can hardly catch me."

"Shouldn't we be hunting mountains?

"I wouldn't struggle if I could do that. Actually, they use a dungeon in the mountains as their root castle. The land is completely over there and you're lucky to get away with it."

Sakura herself, she's been in that dungeon leading the crusade.

But because the interior is so vast and complex, they have abandoned their search along the way.

"But I can't throw it away any more. Now it's time to catch him..."

The ghost capital is in a basin surrounded by mountains.

Located in the northeast is the mountain known as Mount Pluto, where a flavor of bandits say it has a dungeon in the middle of this mountain as its root castle.

"Are you sure it's good? Honestly, if you want to help me, there's nothing more comforting..."

"Oh. It's not as big a deal as this. Besides, thanks for playing so hard in the bath."

"Don't say play! Doesn't it look like you did something nasty!?

"Plump? Keep it up, keep it up.

"... It's too early for you, Philia"

We were coming to Mount Pluto, accompanied by cherry blossoms who wanted to catch a bandit next time.

Eventually I see the entrance to the dungeon.

It's a huge, empty hole in the middle of the mountain.

"That's the dungeon. It has a frightening, vast and complex structure, and one theory even says it leads to hell."

There are several bandits on guard who appear to be on guard and are on guard all around for a long time.

Bandits are basically a bunch of rough people, but they were like loyal soldiers.

"Take down the guards for now."

"Leave it to me"

Tyra strikes directly at the lightning strike and lightly stuns the bandits.

We set foot in the dungeon.

The atmosphere inside is that of a common cavernous dungeon.

But as Sakura said, it was huge without interruption.

Even if I maximize the range of the Detection Pole, I still can't confirm the full picture. That means there's at least a three-kilometer radius.

"Exactly. The bandits don't seem to be that deep."

I had already identified their whereabouts.

It appears to have multiple bases in a relatively shallow area. Still, the road is quite complicated, so you won't be able to reach it by going on to the dark clouds.

But this dungeon, going deeper, has a rather dangerous demon.

'Cause it's a dungeon that boasts the dangers of fingerfolding in the world. However, due to their dislike of the air on the ground, most of them only inhabit the deep. Because of this, they are avoided from coming out on the ground.'

And, Mr. Navigo tells me.

I see. Is that why the bandits can also live in shallow layers?

"Take the split right there."

"... do you even know that..."

I marvel at the cherry blossoms, while proceeding through the dark cave.

"There's a bandit hiding on the sidewalk. Be careful."

"Well, I'll take care of it."

A few bandits attacked me along the way, but Sakura almost knocked me down by herself.

They just say he's a ghost hero, and he doesn't take back to the extent of a parallel bandit.

"Oh, my God, why are they saying you're a hero?

"Perhaps it was prompted by the crusade against sea demons that had a serious impact on the island's fisheries. I've done that a couple of times since, and that's what I was starting to be called when I realized"

Later, she was to serve as the escort for the ghost princess in court because she was a woman and because such an accomplishment was recognized.

"... although the Rain Empire suffered a painful defeat and was made a nation. Without your help, I would still be guilty of a number of crimes as ordered by that tyrant."

Sakura says to herself in mockery.

"This case, too, has once again caused me to deplore my own impudence. Even the thieves who sprang up in my country can't succeed without your help... now I feel sorry for everyone who expects me to be a hero"

That's serious.

I guess he's a very responsible kid. It's great even though you're younger (like twenty) than me.

I'm not the type to lose motivation when you expect me to.

"If you save too much stress, you'll get stiff shoulders. Even if it wasn't, your boobs would be heavy."

"Mm, don't look at your chest giddy!

Talking about that, I eventually got to the place.

A few tents, etc. are set up in a little space of space.

Looks like he was already preparing himself in anticipation of us showing up, and the fiercely armed bandits welcomed him.

The bandits barely came to obstruct us on the way, but that would be because we were gathered in this place. Maybe I dared go this far.

And in the deepest part protected by them, he sat on an altar-plated pedestal scratching alone.

"You've come this far without getting lost a lot. I guess that's something like a hero."

He was a beautiful looking young man, characterised by long dark hair.

Is it because you drink alcohol that your cheeks are slightly red?

Sakura asks.

"Are you Ziyuan...?

"I don't know. I'm the purple garden that binds this bunch."

It doesn't look very much like that, but apparently this is the bandit's best friend.
