─ ─ Zung!

Satsuki's onslaught kept Rockworm breathless and lay him on the ground.

Satsuki comes back to us with a big breath as he holds his knife in his waist.

"Phew... is this the third one?... Hey, that's just a few of them, huh?

I think Satsuki's candid words probably accurately expressed the thoughts of all of us.

Mi and Cyril also seemed to be gradually darkening the color of the tension on that look.

As we continued our search for the pit, we immediately met another integral rockworm and repelled this.

But then I lost it so much that I ran into another one.

That was just when Satsuki sank.

"I agree with Satsuki, too. This much encounter in this short period is past the big sale of Rockworm for whatever it takes"

"Hey William, how long does a rock worm usually flock?

Cyril asks me questions with a slightly anxious face.

I search the knowledge I put in my brain, and I pick up the answers from it.

"As far as I can tell, there is no paper dealing with research into the formation of the Rockworm herd, but - as a general theory - the Rockworm should be to the extent that two or three of them inhabit the same point alone, or even many. … but this time, I ran into him this often, and I don't think that's it."

"I agree with Mi. ─ ─ Retreat once, William?

Mi asks as she looks up at me.

I unconsciously tried to put my hand on the head of the girl in the cat ear clan (Myr.) - I noticed it at a critical point and pulled my hand in.

"... ah, oh. I was just thinking about it, too. I need to report it to my client, and it's time for my magic (mana) residue to be forgiven. You'd better return once."

"Ok, if you move around, I'll be happy too. It's time to get out of this narrow place."

That's what I said, Satsuki, who stretches a lot smaller.

When I looked at Cyril, she nodded to agree, too.

"Okay, then let's go back to the city once.... Mm, what's up, Mi?

When I returned my heel and tried to go back the way I came, I saw Mi standing next to me with some sort of complicated face.

But when she sifted, she shook her head beside her,

"It's nothing.... William didn't hate Mi, did he?

"Hmm...? Oh, yeah, well, I don't hate that."

"Really? I see. I hope you don't mind."

With that said, Mi walked past me and started walking ahead of me on my way home.

As far as I'm concerned, I didn't really know what that meant, but she told me not to worry, so I decided to do that for one second.

─ That's how we ended our search for the pit that day.

As we went outside up the ladder hung in the vertical hole at the entrance, the outside world was about to set in the mountains, and the well sunny sky was starting to stain slightly with purple and vermilion.

"Ugh, outside! ─ ─ Hot springs, hot springs…"

Satsuki jumped out of a well-like vertical hole and stepped toward the city's crowded streets as he leaped.

Mi and Cyril follow her as she shows off the satsuki figure.

I enjoyed the air outside for a long time, watching them smile.
