We prepare for the excursion.

The unreturned labyrinth of treasures was in the western part of the capital.

Is it about a five-day journey by carriage?

"You're unexpectedly close."

is Chloe's word.

"Well, maybe the closest labyrinth to the Imperial City. In famous places."

"Then is it the easiest labyrinth"

And, Chloe casually says, hell, I'll deny it.

The name of the labyrinth without returning is not Dade.

"Oh, well."

And, Chloe, who will look a little troubled.

"Closest to the Empire. Plus, it's a popular labyrinth for new American adventurers. Locally, but with difficulty."

"Then isn't it safe and secure?

"It's the most orthodox, the most familiar labyrinth, but nothing has reached its deepest depths. The relatively shallow hierarchy has been explored, but nothing has reached its deepest"

"I see, it's a popular labyrinth, but no extreme figures yet," he said.

"That's the thing. For once, official records say that some well-known adventurers from a few hundred or so years ago reached the 99 tiers, but that there are still going to be hierarchies underneath them. By the way, those adventurers managed to return, but only three survived, at a party of about eight."

I'll add that what survived was traumatic at that time, and that I didn't dive into the labyrinth afterwards.

Chloe, who frowns when she hears that dialogue, tried to utter the phrase, "Maybe you should leave a message after all, Fiona-like," but that is summed up by Al.

"Rest assured!!

And, Al, who breaks into conversation and comes in.

"This map specifies the hierarchy where the treasures are located. It's the seventh tier. I've dived many times in this labyrinth, eagle, but there's no great demon until the seventh tier. It's just so cluttered that this Al can be alone."

Al folds his fingers and names the demons.

Oak, Goblin, Slime, Big Spider (Giant Spider), Wolf Bat, Violent Pig (Wild Bore).

"This Alulu is so cluttered that he can defeat it with one hand."

"Then go alone."

That makes Arul tearful.

"It's a lie. I'm sorry. I have academic skin. I don't like rough things. Especially insect monsters, who are terribly bad at it, lose up to 30 percent of their fighting power."

I'm curious how you measured your combat power, but it doesn't really look strong.

Though a fifth class magician, it won't be possible to go all the way to the seventh tier alone.

"Do I have to protect not only my daughter, but this useless and seemingly frivolous hat?"

I leaked like that in a small voice, but it seems to have reached Al's ear. She is outraged.

"What is rude, useless,"

And, stating his protest, he went on like this.

"It's useless, it's not 'yes', it's useless. Isn't that why you're hiring Mr. Kite?"

Don't be rude, already, and make your nose rough.

………………

I lose my word, but is it better if I'm just aware of it?

I decided to think so.

At least I didn't have to pull my leg, thinking so I headed to the labyrinth rocked by the carriage.

After about five days I arrived at the labyrinth.

In the meantime, no major event happened because the eagle's daily deeds are good, Al boasts, but I don't think so.

When we arrived at the labyrinth, we received a rough welcome.

We went into the labyrinth and stepped down into the first tier meadow area.

"This place is like a eagle garden. Follow me because I know a shortcut."

And as I followed behind the wizard of the hat, I just ran into a lot of trouble.

A shortcut to the stairs leading to the second tier.

In the little woods there, we run into monsters.

It is also a large spider that is rarely seen in the first tier.

As Al said in his foreword, "Geez!," he exclaims.

I look at that and think. This woman really doesn't seem like a good bug.

And no luck.

Big spiders rarely showed up on the first tier, and they never attacked me without a herd like this.

"Hii, Fu, Mii"

Chloe counting flat numbers.

Meanwhile, Fiona also shows off, looking hectic.

"Aren't you scared? Fiona."

Fiona shakes her head to the side.

"Not at all"

"Normal girls don't like bugs, though."

"That's prejudice, Father."

And, Fiona insists.

"I basically like all animals. No cows, no bugs, no frogs, no snakes."

"Speaking of which, even in the master's mansion yard, he caught a bug flat."

I recall a riot when I caught a beetle and tried to present it to the lady in the mansion.

Fiona, a young girl, had sent beetles along with flower decorations to take her stroke down in an effort to thank the elderly woman she was always looking after.

No offense, I was just trying to please the lady.

Fiona is still uncomfortable, and she can arm herself.

"Hmm, that's crazy. Bugs are so cute. Even though beetles are strong and cool."

I agree with that, but there is a limit.

The number of beetles that Fiona gave to the lady was about thirty.

The scabbard and awkward beetles in a small box would be no different from the creatures known as Gs for ordinary women.

The lady who received it, come on, must have been difficult.

I thought so, but don't worry about it.

My daughter would also understand that normal women don't like insects, and nothing needed Fiona to hate insects to keep up with the public trend.

There was no need for a girl to hate all the bugs, and could there be a girl who likes bugs?

I thought so. I told Chloe to blindfold Fiona.

"I don't mind, but why?

"There's a scene I don't want to show Fiona I like bugs."

"I see, well, that's how many, and the big spider isn't exactly the right person to talk about it."

"Right."

The large swarm of spiders, gathered about five if you look at them, looks at this one wanting.

Looks like we're a very tasty prey.

"This is a spider that has remembered the 'taste' of adventurers. It's not easy to get rid of."

I thought so. I cast magic without chanting.

It's the magic of Fireball.

The big fireballs that appear in front of me descend on the big spider as if they were willing.

Moments, big burning spiders.

No vocal cords, so no screaming, but it's a little cruel to be stuffy and crazy in pain of heat.

Fortunately, Fiona didn't have to show that sight because she was blindfolded by Chloe, but instead Arul was trembling.

She looks at this one with eyes as if she sees something incredible.

"If you don't want to see Al, you can go over there, like a big spider, and I can do it alone."

At first I thought you remembered the way spiders get stuffy and distressed, but apparently not.

She gave a serious look as she shook her head to the side.

"It's not. I'm surprised by that magic."

"Does that surprise you? You must be Conrad's apprentice. [M] You'll be so familiar with it."

"I'm surprised because I'm used to seeing it. Your magic may be equal to or greater than my master's."

"It won't be that far"

"No, that's it. Are you really just a sage?

"I'm a magician now. That's a thin college teacher, too."

That being said, the surviving great spiders fled to scatter the spider child.

Apparently the spiders are no match for this guy either, he recognized.

Good. I don't need to smell the spider burning any more.

And Fiona doesn't have to be blindfolded.

I thought so. When Chloe unblindfolded me, I pulled my daughter's hand and headed to the second tier.

Al was staring at the sight with a pompous face.
