Itai no wa Iya nanode Bōgyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu

The first thing I got in this battle was a book.

And there are three medals.

This was pretty lucky.

This is because a player who has three medals should avoid fighting with a high-level player as much as possible.

Sally would have escaped with normal equipment.

Five medals, more than the losing players had three, managed to deprive the cool of the three.

The temptation for the medals to be nearly tripled at a stretch would not have been possible.

"Mummy picking is a mummy ..."

Sally said that she had retrieved that old book from her inventory.

"Well, why not read it?"

"Yeah! Let's do it!"

They sit on a large stone brick and look into the book.

I couldn't read any pages properly because it was ragged, but when I flipped over, I found a readable part of only one page.

"[Furuno heart], spring water Ni-kare, light Ikono, sono appearance, now San. Brave Naruja Yo, Mabutsu Ite, Aooku Shizuka Kana Sea"

"What do you mean?"

"Spring is involved in [Old Heart] ... Is it possible to go to the dungeon if it exists?

"... It's like a spring ... a fountain?"

As a result of their search, the ruins had four fountains.

There is a large fountain in the center of the ruins and a small fountain away from it.

The top of the fountain was made of diamond-shaped red crystal and was beautiful.

However, there is no sign of water and it has withered.

"Let's try it in the middle of the large fountain."

"Yeah, let's do it."

After a short walk, they reached the great fountain.

Sally wondered if she had any thoughts, and slid over the fountain tray, which would once have been filled with water.

"[Omi]!"

Water spreads from Sally's feet.

It fills the saucer.

At the same time, the fountain began to glow pale blue.

"Oh !?"

"How?"

But the light fades away.

The water that had accumulated in the saucer disappeared as if it were sucked into the fountain.

I listened, but didn't hear the sound of something working.

"Hmm ... nothing happens?"

"... I see. But I think there's something in this fountain."

"Yeah, I think. Let's try other fountains."

They did the same in the other fountains and found that each fountain glowed faintly, but no further changes occurred.

"Sally, you didn't read that book to the end yet, why don't you read it again?"

"... Yeah, maybe there might be other hints."

The two get stuck and read the book again and again. From the first page, there were no readable characters.

And it comes to the sentence that stopped reading.

"The faint light is the light of that fountain, and the spring water would be fine ..."

I think about it, but never come up with anything, leave it there and look at the previous page.

"Oh?"

"This is a picture?"

Last page.

Although it had been tattered, there was a picture on it.

"Vase? No, a water bottle?"

People laying pot-like objects around the four fountains. Something round was floating at the top of the picture. It is painted red.

"This is [Old Heart]?"

Maple points at the red circle.

"... Maybe ... I have to put it in a water bottle and put it around.

The two thought while groaning, but the information obtained from this picture was too vague to lead to a good idea.

"Let's take a break. Nothing seems to come up if you think about it."

"That may very well be right"

They sit down in the middle of the ruins and relax.

It is better to be in a vantage point than to hide in a weird way, so you can more easily notice the approach from the player and relax.

"Is this event three days after today?"

Sally mutters.

The event has already passed the turning point. The rest is small.

"I think it was a really rich four days! It might be more intense than everything you've ever played!"

"Ah, sure!"

He defeated the goblin king, spent the night in the forest where the ghosts wander, and in the snowy mountains, fighting against overwhelming monsters, putting on syrup and hazy, and then exploring bamboo grove.

In the valley, there was a fight with fake, and in the desert, we explored with snails running away from snails.

In the sea, I met Kanade and got a new connection, and got a medal.

As Maple says, they've spent a very strong event period.

"If you can explore this ruin and one more dungeon, I guess it's a character."

"Do you use the whole day for ruins on the fifth day?"

"Yeah, I'm going to do that. It may take that long."

After a break, they began exploring the ruins again.

Unlike the first time, he is spending time searching for basements and hidden rooms.

The reason is the old picture.

The couple speculated that there might be a pictured water bottle somewhere in the ruins.

You will need a water bottle to reproduce the picture situation.

That picture was not absolutely correct, but they only had the clue so far.

The two of us, sometimes separated, continued our search, but the sun was set without finding anything.

"Let's go under the roof somewhere and rest"

"Let's do it."

The two ate, dropping their shoulders on what did not work as expected.

"There was nothing."

"... It might change again at night, and sometimes we'll take turns to explore?"

"yep, OK!"

The reason why they did not search at the same time and decided to rest on the other side is probably because the search is still waiting tomorrow.

If they had to act with plenty of time, they would learn from the escape from snails when they made mistakes.

After talking for a while after dinner, Sally went out to explore.

"Welcome!"

"See you"

Maple calls the syrup and plays. There is nothing else.

However, sometimes taking a break is a fine job.

Once we have decided on ourselves, we can't just break our promises and head for the search.

After a while, Sally returned.

It seems that there was no result from the appearance. His expression was not bright either.

After a while, Maple leaves.

I repeated that several times, and the maple turned a few times.

"I'm coming."

"Yeah, I wish there was something ..."

Maple explores the ruins.

The first is from the great fountain.

Until now, it was from the great fountain.

And look around the whole thing and see the small fountain.

Maple looks up at the sky.

"A beautiful moon ..."

The full moon floating in the sky quietly poured pale moonlight on the ground.

Since the real world is full of light, you will not be able to feel the brightness of the moonlight so far.

Maple walks along the path to the Great Fountain.

"Hmm?"

Maple stops.

The great fountain has had a long-awaited change.

The fountain glowed thinly, despite the fact that they were not doing anything.
