Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 73. Wilderness Exploration in the West (3)

The spirit of fire at the forefront.

And two torches followed. Like a floating firefly in the middle of the night, the group advances forward through the darkness.

I was on the move for a long time.

Suddenly, the group's voice hits their ears.

“But will it be okay? ”

“What?”

Isha asked me a question, and the answer came right back.

“Didn't Irina say that? I only spent four days in a cave. ”

That's what I thought of the bear.

So I realized at the time that the cave was pretty deep. When Ferda nods, her words continue.

“On the other hand, we've only got three days' worth of food. Maybe I should have brought more. ”

He was worried about something and was afraid he might run out of food.

Meanwhile, Irina shakes her head due to real-world concerns.

“It's okay. I found a shortcut the other day. ”

“Shortcut?”

“Yes, it will be here soon. ”

Irina grins.

Not long after that, the spirit of fire that was walking on the front suddenly stopped.

The group stops walking and looks at Irina. I smiled as if I had found a way to go straight ahead.

“This is the shortcut. ”

“What a bummer.”

“That's right. So I'm going to get ready to go down now. ”

Irina's words made him look embarrassed.

Meanwhile, Ferda brings the torch to the cliff without a word. It was to assess the depth. But this was pointless. The darkness was endlessly stretching down.

Tuck!

Irina drops her backpack.

She opens her backpack wide and starts unpacking.

Tough-looking rope and tools for climbing down cliffs. Ferda, who was watching this, asked with her face just in case.

“How far down are we? ”

“If I work hard, it'll take me half a day. ”

In response, he asked as if he was embarrassed.

“Bar, half-day? ”

“Wouldn't it be better to go down with flying magic? ”

Isha, who was beside me, also expressed her opinions with a strange face.

Irina tilts her head back.

“I don't care, but are you guys going to be okay? ”

As soon as she finished, the wind came out of nowhere.

After a while, a green eagle appeared. It was a higher spirit of the wind. Perhaps he's using the power of a spirit to climb down.

Meanwhile, Silvana and Isha nod at the same time.

“Yes, I recently learned flying magic. ”

“I'm familiar with it. So you can go down with up to one person. ”

After answering, Isha looks back at Ferda.

“I don't think it's going to be okay with the teacher. ”

I blurred my words with a worried face.

After a while, it was Rodenhark who touched her eyes. We carry that much weight with us by flying magic? Dozens of wizards would have to stick to it to barely move it.

Then came the answer from Rodenhark.

[A. Don't worry. There's a way down.]

The blue glare shimmers silently.

I don't know what you're trying to do, but I can't believe you have a choice. As the final issue is resolved, the group sets out to get ready to head straight down.

“Okay, then I'll take Radina. ”

In reality, the magic of flying is still unfamiliar. So the accompanying object had to weigh less than a drunkard to be able to control it. That's how Ferda naturally became a partner with Isha.

“Hold on, hometeacher. I can't be held responsible if I fall. ”

“I see.”

Ferda wraps one arm around Isha's neck.

When all the preparations are complete, the group sets out in a daze. Leaving Rodenhark in charge of preparations.

When they each fell slowly with wind spirits and flying magic.

Ferda raised her head and looked up. It was because I felt the wind coming from the ceiling. And his feelings were accurate.

‘The ceiling is breached. ’

It was dark and hard to see, but it was clearly pierced.

The entrance to the cave is clearly the only place the group has entered. Then where does that pierced ceiling lead? I heard Isha's voice as I was wondering.

“Torch! Put the torch away! ”

I thought I was looking at the ceiling for a while and headed for the torch Isha. Ferda drops her torch at a distance, saying she's sorry. During that process, suddenly the wall on the other side shined.

What is it?

For a moment, I saw something carved into the wall.

Ferda raises her torch again. But it didn't look as detailed as I thought. He pondered for a moment and put Isha's name on his mouth.

“Isha.”

“Yes?”

“Hold on to that wall over there. ”

“Why all of a sudden? ”

“Don't talk nonsense, hurry up. ”

She pounces on Ferda's urge.

But for a moment, she gently narrowed down the wall and the distance.

Soon after arriving at the destination, I raised my torch again to examine the wall. Soon, Ferda realized what was engraved on the wall.

‘Scars.’

It was a trail, to be exact.

Traces of something sharp or hard scraping at high speed. Another trail appeared from below to above. This is the sound of something scratching at the wall below and heading up.

Is there anything dangerous down there? ’

So did Kwain's reaction outside the cave, and I felt that way somehow.

But I wasn't sure until I saw it for myself. Ferda clears her mind, keeping her suspicions in a corner of her heart.

After a short time, the group arrives on the ground. In reality, he muttered, lightly unwinding his rigid body.

“Obviously, it's very deep. ”

“I see. I can't believe I'm halfway through magic already. ”

Isha nods with a big nod.

Of course, it didn't take half a day, but it seemed like two hours had passed. I'm starting to get hungry.

“As soon as Rodenhark gets down here, let's eat and move on. ”

“Yes, good. ”

I was afraid to say Bob.

Meanwhile, Isha and Irina mutter, looking up at the ceiling.

“But how do you expect to get down? ”

“Yeah, it's not like there's flying magic or anything related. ”

Rodenhark cannot use magic.

At best, you can concentrate your magical power and then use all your explosive skills. How is he supposed to get down this cliff? A moment of curiosity and curiosity in the face of the group.

Radina, who was in her arms, jumps to her feet.

[Prince, I can see the stars.]

“Huh? A star? ”

You can see stars here?

The realm raises a curious face. At that moment, I saw something surprisingly shiny. It was a pale blue light. The sparkling thing was moving slowly like a bird flying through the sky.

[I can see it moving. It's a shooting star!]

Radina's eyes glitter like a jewel.

[Dad says the stars grant wishes! Umm, so Radina's wish is...]

After a while, Radina thought about her wishes, and put her loving hands together. Then I close my eyes and lower my head slightly.

With the exception of Radina, the group looks up at the elongated sky. Common sense was, there couldn't have been any stars in this place. The moment I looked at the ceiling with my eyes closed like that.

“ · · · · · ·! ”

Ferda opens her eyes.

Then, knowing the situation, he shouted in a hurry.

“Isha! Build an ice wall! ”

“Yes?”

“It's not a star! Rodenhark!”

Ferda's cry made Isha's face think twice.

With her hands on the ground, she casts an urgent spell. Suddenly, the group is surrounded by a thick wall of ice.

And then it went to Darkness Castle in real life.

Kuaaaaaaang!

The ground shakes with a tumultuous sound.

A continuous shock wave. The thick ice wall collapses like a sand castle. It's a pity Darkness Castle was used on the real estate, otherwise it would have been buried in the ice sculpture.

Quadruck! Quadruck!

At that moment, your arm comes up, squeezing the recessed hole. A moment later, Rodenhark appears, covered in dust.

[Arrival complete.]

With a chic answer, he joins the group straight away.

I can't believe I fell from such a high place and didn't see any scratches. I knew it was hard, but I didn't think it would be this hard.

Meanwhile, Isha is a firm horny face.

It was because he was almost crushed by a fragment of an ice wall he had made.

“No, say something if you're going to jump! ”

[Objection. Of course I thought you knew.]

“How would I know that?! ”

Isha yells as if she's crazy.

After the commotion, the group gathers around and starts eating. After finishing a small meal, you head back behind Irona.

And I finally arrived at my intermediate destination.

“Here · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

The sight unfolded before the eyes of a truly massive void.

Large enough to hold more than thousands of people. Compared to how small the entrance to the cave was, there was a cavity this size.

[Report. Ancient Magical Power Detected.]

At that time, Rodenhark had a rather odd reaction.

He relentlessly scatters the blue glare and emits a mechanical voice.

[Explore. Analyze the precise uses here.]

Seeing as they say it's ancient magic, if you leave it alone, I'll find out and report something. Ferda ignores Rodenhark and turns away.

Then I heard Isha's voice.

“Lord! There's something written here. ”

In her cry, all but Rodenhark are gathered in one place.

Soon, we arrived in the center of the community. A large letter was inscribed around the ceiling.

“Ancient?”

“No, it looks similar, but it's a little different. ”

The question seemed curious, but the answer was no.

Isha looks this way, while she and Irina are watching the text.

“Maybe the homeroom teacher knows? ”

The red eyes flashed with anticipation.

After reading the record of the fifth author, he thought that he could read it too. But Ferda shakes her head silently. That was the first text I ever saw.

That's when the identity of the text fell into the maze.

[Ok. I know what this place is for.]

After the search, Rodenhark joins the party.

He said, taking everyone's gaze into one body.

[This place appears to be the nest where the dragons lived in the past.]

“What? The dragons? ”

[Positive. There is evidence to support the claim.]

A shiny, blue glare points up.

The ceiling was engraved with unknown characters where his gaze reached. Soon after, Rodenhark spoke in a bold tone.

That letter is the language of the dragons.]

Then I understood that I could not read.

Ferda nods, grudging.

“Can you interpret it? ”

[Positive. Yes. I'll get started right away.]

With a refreshing answer, Rodenhag's eyes gleam brightly.

The blue eyelight then reached the ceiling like an analogous laser point. The light beneath the sentence slowly shifts, and Rodenhag's voice echoes quietly.

[My lovely child. One less of the great Black Dragons. The pride of a family born with a noble mission.]

The creature who engraved this sentence constantly praised and praised any dragon ever since. By the time the praise that had been going on for a long time came to an end, the identity of the dragons was revealed.

[Sacrifice this nest to Erk Essiers Rigrudna.]

I'm afraid Rodenhag's last words will end.

In reality, Irona's eyes fluttered.

“What? Erc? ”

“If it's Erk, it's obvious. ”

Two startled screams.

Ferda's face is as hard as a stone. When I heard his full name, I realized who he was.

“· · · · · · All Death. ”

The last of the dragons, and the first disaster called all death.

The identity of the cave was its nest.
