"... so? What's the status quo?

Crowe asked in a tired voice,

I dared to suppress the flooding. Also, to ensure that this never happens again, the ceiling of the tunnel... is being strengthened. "

After all, Kel answered with a tired voice while wearing himself out of the dungeon core.

Don't idiots just repeat the same mistakes?

"Yes... even though the likelihood of these people developing novel failures is not zero..."

After the underground fire, this time there was an overflow into the tunnel. They do a lot of theodrum stuff too... "

It is doubtful whether this case can be referred to as "overflow", but at least it must be the water damage caused by the decisive collapse of the river course without embankment.

"So... Master Crowe, what do we do now?

That's what it is......

It's as easy to seal it off as in an underground fire, but it's time for Theodrum to retreat from the dungeon, or he won't be too enthusiastic about his activities in the dungeon.

As Crowe, there is a consciousness that whatever happens to Theodrum is welcome. Looking at such truth, it is not preferable for Theodrum to pull his hand away from the "Rock of Disaster" and reduce one of their headache seeds.

Besides, it is also the abdomen that the workforce in the corner escapes.

I wouldn't be a fool to retrieve the magic elements from a Theodoram soldier.

Well then... isn't it better not to hunt down too much here?

Due to the circumstances behind it, Crowe and the others sealed off only the flooded areas of the tunnel and allowed Teodrum's peat mining - although a little restriction was imposed.

"The water level in the river dropped temporarily?

Meanwhile, this is Marcus's faction.

Admiral Fiddle, entrusted with the key position of commander of Marcus's "Rock of Disaster" surveillance unit, was frowning at reports from those who were patrolling the border.

Sure - something similar happened before. At that time, it was reported that the water level in the well dropped....

"No, it was a little different this time...."

According to the lieutenant, the water in the river decreased so that it could be inhaled in front of the guard soldiers who happened to be there.

"... so what? Instead of lowering the water level...?

"Yes, it looked like the river was flowing somewhere. I was watching my eyes doubt for a while...."

"The inflow has stopped and the flow is back to normal..."

This is a situation that is difficult to judge.

"There's no doubt that the Theodorams did something in the dungeon..."

"The problem is where. It was obviously in my Marcus territory."

Water leakage - is it okay? - If Theodrum was operating underground, it is clear that they violated the border. However.....

"... whether it is wise to make things rough is a different matter. At least it's not a problem with the field headquarters. We might be invading Theodoram territory without even realizing it."

The accusation may return to their side as if it were a detour.

"There is evidence of their actions, and there is no evidence of our actions?

"There is no evidence that anyone operating underground in our territory was a Theodoram soldier. There are signs of someone working underground, but we can't just call it a theodrum."

At least you don't want to be in such trouble, but I have to agree with the lieutenant.

"... and then, if I tell them about the territory, I can't ignore the fear of buying the Dungeon Master's embarrassment."

When I tasted the "Rock of Disaster", I was the one who caused a situation that was likely to lead to the World War. It's not a good opponent to give a crap.

"The more problematic thing is, what are they doing in the dungeon?"

After all, this is the second time that the water level has dropped. It can be done by coincidence once, but it is not calm that there was a second time in between.

"... what is Theodrum plotting?

"I don't know.... but there is no doubt that both exercised some influence over the water in our territory."

However, the voice of the protégé who answered that question also included the difficult confusion.

It is possible that Theodoram, who yearns for water resources, noticed the flow of water through the dungeon, and as a result, a temporary disruption to the flow of water in Marcus was... a well-conceivable story.

I just... don't understand why I'm exposing it in this way.

The idea that Crowe was expanding the tunnel by volunteering Theodrum soldiers was unlikely to emerge from the heads of military personnel whose goal was to be solid and healthy.
