Just a pit trail that came to check gear performance. It should have been discarded early with little resources. That was where the demons dug endlessly into the dungeons. Few visitors visit, and the further inside, the higher the chance of encountering demons. Stampede occurred as it was, and it was not difficult to imagine that there would be enormous damage to Spiris. We're the only ones here right now. Then it's our job to prevent it.

"I also finished inspecting my gear. I also filled my belly. You're all set, huh?

"Oh, you can go anytime."

Answer Daniela and stand up. We go deeper than this. I don't know how deep it is, but let's just say we move on with our temper. And the iron sword got bagged. From now on, let's fight with an ice sword. This includes, of course, confirmation of equipment performance. Originally, that's what it was all about. And keep it better than an iron sword. It's an important sword, so if it breaks, I cry.

Daniela doesn't say anything to me that goes round her back. Because you know how I fight. So Daniela has a dead tree bow in her hand, and she works for my backup. That's exactly what Azumi breathes. The boulder is my wife. [M] Don't worry, I'll take care of the back.

"I have a reaction ahead of me. Not Cobolt."

"Then it's a mole. Let's get this over with."

I also saw signs of demons in my range as I went down the downhill road. There is one slightly larger reaction. Ten or eighty-nine, it would be a mole. Generate an ice sword on your right hand to gently approach. I can hear you scraping galloping walls from the back. I glanced into the dark and saw the mole turning its back on us and digging the wall indifferently. At this distance, it's within my range. There's no turning around.

"I'm coming."

Copy that.

Running out in short exchanges. Instantly pack the distance and swing the ice sword down the back of the mole. Without time to give him the severance demon, the mole traveled to another world.

By the way, I call this guy a 'mole', but I wonder if he has an official name or something. Some proof of crusade or something, I'll collect it...

"Oh, this guy's name is' Hall Mall '. Crusade proof is nails. Three would be good."

I see, the hall mall... the hole mole. Manma Yan. And, claws are folded from the roots and retrieved with a twitch in his heart. Honestly, I don't have a lot of hands anymore, but if it's going to be gold, I'm going to have to take it home. Not as long as I can hold it. And then again, we started walking back.

□ □ □ □

It's been quite a while since we defeated the first hall mall. I don't know the depth that went any further. Turn around, go up and down, turn again... I don't feel anything anymore. Don't forget to mark it, but if we miss it, we'll live here.

I proceeded to fill my hungry belly with street rice and finished my third meal today, now. I mean, dinner. It will be night out already.

The number of demons defeated is considerable. I can't even retrieve the crusade proof anymore. The wild demons were collected under the landmarks on the way home. In addition to Cobolt and Hall Mall, Hall Worm is a mite-shaped demon that uses earthly magic for business. Bloodbat, a bat-shaped demon who has had an ultrasonic attack. And Rock Hunter, a man-shaped monster with a large number of rocks attached to it. I hear rock hunters aren't like golems. The Golem seems to be a magical creation. This rock hunter seems to be a demon made of small, rock parasitic bugs.

Kill more and more and move on to the back.

"I'll leave you the magic props of the junction."

"You're not going to move on?

"Take a break or you'll fall."

"So is that... sorry I stopped you"

Grab a magic prop and continue down the aisle. Continued progress will not reduce the accumulation of fatigue. Even I'm resting in a cave like this. It is not a complete recovery. Therefore, I have taken a serious break from earlier. But you'll have to rest here all at once. It'll get in the way.

And I felt strange signs as I was stretching out the posture I was bending over with the demon props in place to untie my body. From beyond this juncture. Daniela would know? Return slowly and without making a sound.

"Daniela."

"Yeah?"

Daniela, who was spreading a cloth for rest, looks back.

"I feel some strange signs..."

"Hmm... oh, now you know that much about the rabbit too"

And, yeah, Daniela nodding happily. Question marks are being mass-produced over my head.

"It's a stream of magic. Underneath this earth where we live, magic flows and cruises, just as water does. This is called a dragon vein in an ancient language. I stuck one foot in the stream earlier."

"So you're saying we're in the process now?

"Right. It will stay away from the mainstream, but close to the tributary. Like that."

Hmm, dragon vein? The flow of mind flowing into the earth, it's a target. Who did you name it? It's a name I've heard in Japan, a different world... but no way.

"Doesn't it affect us in there?

"Right. Soaking it up for a long time would have some effect."

"Is that like a magic hoard?

"No, it's not. The magic accumulation was blown up to the surface as a starch in the dragon vein. Precipitation, which means negative force. And this dragon vein is a positive force. There shouldn't be any immediate negative effects."

"I see... the medication can also be poisonous if you get the wrong amount. You don't have to stay long."

But if you fail to take a break, you will fall. We have to rest well here and get to the bottom tomorrow to complete some of the interruptions. I fell asleep first as Daniela watched.

□ □ □ □

Daniela woke me up and I was on watch for the second half. But there was no particular difference, and nothing happened until Daniela happened. Have a stall meal for breakfast and we'll both go back. The dragon pulse reactions also mixed within the sign sensing, and before I got used to it, I had confused it with the demonic signs, but after a few hours I got used to it.

Even that day, he thrusts through a massive amount of demons. I'm really wary of overflowing if there's any more. Roll the defeated demon over the edge of the aisle to move on. I have my thoughts, but I can't risk Spirit. Now I just go back, dive into the back.

And I realized. I noticed. That I enjoy going back while I kill demons.

To prevent stampede. What can I say to save Spirit from the crisis? I'm enjoying it now. If I thought so, my legs stopped.

"What's up, Asagi? Enemy?"

"Hey Daniela... am I crazy"

"Hmm?"

Daniela moves ahead of me and peeks into my face. I don't want you to see it. I don't want to be seen, like, the human face I enjoy at a time like this. That's what I thought, I missed my face.

"Asagi?"

"Hey Daniela... I think I'm having a little fun right now. At a time like this, in a place like this. I have myself enjoying myself while I kill demons. The first night, Kobolt walked into the camp. I magically consolidated it and killed it. [M] And then I dumped the body on the spot... and I didn't get any emotions. I thought I was a terrible person."

Daniela listens to me quietly.

"And today. I didn't get any emotions. I think it's fun now. [M] Get good performance gear, kill with a strong weapon and move on...... So much so that I thought it might have broken in this cave... it's fun to kill it and go back."

I'm done. I look at Daniela's face in horror. I wonder what he looks like. Would I have been despised......

Daniela, however, was gentle and smiling.

"Asagi is a kind man. He's the sweetest person in my life. The rabbit who crushes his heart at the demons he kills is a kind man."

I stare at Daniela who says so. Daniela's words reach my ears, but they don't apply to me as they stand. I don't believe in Russia.

"And the rabbit is the man the adventurer deserves. Just like me."

"Same...?

"Oh, I think it's fun too. I enjoy going back. I'm glad that now it's for the town I took care of by defeating demons like this. And I don't lose myself in all this bloody smell, I love about the rabbit who stares at my heart properly and confesses to me"

Daniela hugs me. [M] He gently wraps me in blood. [M]

"Hey, Asagi. What we're doing is killing. Demons, I guess, but it doesn't matter. This is indisputable, mass murder. But it is necessary. That's what a man with a weapon has to do to protect a town where many people live. Asagi hasn't been an adventurer before, so I can't help but question that. Even after I became an adventurer, I've killed as much as I needed. For your own good. So I can't help but question killing something for someone invisible, not for myself.

My heart trembles at the touch of my hand slowly stroking my head.

"What I think is fun is the sex of the adventurer. I wonder what lies ahead. I want to fight a stronger guy. Thinking so is naturally a boiling emotion if you're doing adventurers. So, me and the rabbit, we're enjoying ourselves now. Enjoy and take for granted. Ahead, there is absolutely something interesting. Did I tell you? I don't want to go home. I can't help but have fun right now"

Couscous and laughing Daniela. I felt my trembling heart melt away.

"That's why you shouldn't feel comfortable killing. Killing without necessity is evil. My favorite rabbit wouldn't be that guy, would he?

"Naturally, you know... the guy who likes Daniela isn't like that"

"Hehe, good. I love you, Rabbit."

I can hug you vigorously. I was afraid of the cold in my heart that I felt last night. Feelingless, I wonder if I've become a cold person. But Daniela warmed me up. He told me I was a kind man. I didn't just kill him by Darkless Arrow Cod, he said. I feel saved by that word. [M]

I don't know. Emotions swirl and feelings of no place to go overflow my eyes. To know how I felt, I stared at the distorted ceiling, not to overflow.
