Late. Tamer's day.

Columns of light rising from the fountain.

Is this the Spirit of Water descending?

But it wasn't the Spirit who showed up before me, it was a giant gate.

It is a gateway full of mystical atmosphere, made of stone and likely to be installed at the entrance of ancient sites. The surface of the gate is carved with intricate crests resembling waves, which play a role in enhancing mystery. It would be about 5 meters tall.

Such a gate suddenly appeared in front of me.

"Uh..."

I thought about what to do when I saw the closed door, but soon the stone door began to open gobbly. Good, 'cause you'll never open it on your own. Immediately after that, the World Announcement rings.

One of the Spirit Gates has been freed.

"Skill Scroll will be presented at random as a bonus to Yuto who opened the Water Spirit Gate"

I didn't know this was the Spirit Gate. Yesterday, the Spirit Gate relationship must have also been the one where the World Announcement flowed.

Maybe that means I'm second. Yesterday was Tuesday. If my theory of the week and crystalline linkage were true, the Fire Spirit Gate would have been opened.

When that happens, Earthly Spirit Gate is Earthly Day. The Wind Spirit Gate... What day is it? There's no windy day. I know it's either Monday, Thursday, Friday, or Sunday...... I don't know.

"And you said you'd give me a skill scroll"

When I checked the inventory, the gift box was in it. Seems like a random skill scroll comes out when you open it.

"All right, let's open it up quick! I wonder what's coming out, what's coming out, Teletettette Telelay?"

When opened, what emerged was' underwater exploration 'skills. Um, I don't know. This game has a huge number of skills, so I can't even remember skills I'm not interested in.

"Do you want to use it for now? Well, that's an interesting skill."

He was skilled in emitting his magic like an echo and scanning underwater. The information is displayed in my status window as a 3D map.

They say if the level increases, the accuracy and range will increase. Funny, funny, but I may not have much use for it. Maybe it's a must-have skill for a race that can work underwater.

"In the meantime, why don't we go in the gate... That's a little scary."

Whatever, I couldn't see the end of the open gate. It's not that it's dark and invisible, but that the blue light is shaking like it's in the water.

I just don't naturally have the option of not getting in with this.

"All right, let's go, guys!

"Mm!"

"Kiku!"

"Kumar!"

――♪

"Yah!"

Olt, Kumama and Rick stick their right hand up to show their motivation. Sakura smiles as usual. Fou began playing music that would boost the venue. ○ It is a song full of adventure, like the theme song of the Irates of the Caribbean.

"Oops, something null...... Yeah, men are brazen!

I never jumped into the blue light in the gate. If you think your body felt wrapped up in something like water, the next moment you go out to a place like a big hall.

It was a place that looked like a stone temple. A strange blue light emitting ball floats on all sides of the dim room, mysteriously illuminating the room.

"Erm..."

"Welcome. Liberator."

"Yeah? Who?

"I am the head of Undine. We welcome you."

Suddenly it was one beautiful woman ponytailing her wavy, watery hair that appeared as if she had moved instantly into the room.

The clothes I'm wearing are thin costumes like dancers, and I feel somewhere like the Spirit of the Great Tree. If that's green, this one's water.

"What is this place?

"This place is a hiding place for Undine. It is a holy place where only the chosen can visit."

"I see, is that why it's the Water Spirit Gate"

"Come this way, let me show you"

"Oh, yes."

Mr. Undine walked out with his heels back, so we followed him in a hurry. Mr. Undine continues down the aisle leading from the hall.

Beyond the narrow passage was a beautiful space, not like a dim dungeon of stone until earlier, where the ceilings, walls and floors were all made of white marble. Would it be a fountain square image all over European town? Probably wider than the Tokyo Dome.

Waterfalls and waterways are installed vertically and horizontally on walls, passageways, ceilings, and even stairs and air passageways at the end, and water continues to flow indefinitely. That's where the Spirit of Water lives.

And there were a lot of beautiful girls there who looked a lot like Mr. Undine. A lot of people talk to each other normally, but some of them even run things like stores.

"This is our city of water spirits. If you dive the gates and are human, you are allowed to move freely."

"Oh, thank you"

This looks like an interesting place. I want to do a lot of research quickly.

"Um, I have a few questions for you."

"What is it? Let me tell you as much as I can."

"Um, if I wanted to come back here again, would I have to dedicate water crystals on Water Day?

"No, it's only the first time you have to match the day with the crystal. Once you're in, you can always go through the gates."

That's important information. They still needed water crystals on water day.

"If you're with me, can anyone come here?

"No, only qualified people can get in. You'll have to climb the gates on your own, except for the qualified ones."

He said he couldn't bring others.

"And what is that door? It's huge."

"Beyond that, it is a test of the water spirit. Unlike us, our pathetic compatriots, who have gone mad, are sealed."

"Does that mean Undine will appear as an enemy?

"Yes, in plain sight to you, is it a dungeon"

"If I defeat the mad Spirit, will you all be pissed off?

"No. Crazy spirits, it is mercy to let them vanish. I wish I could undo it..."

They won't complain about defeating Undine, who showed up as an enemy.

Anything else you want to ask me? I think I heard more or less......

"Oh, one more thing. I can see the fish over there, can I fish here?

"I don't mind."

It's a fish from the Spirit's residence. There might be something interesting about it. This looks interesting too.

"Then I will return to the entrance. If you want to ask me something again, ask me."

"Okay. Thank you for all your explanations."

Mr. Undine leaves with his head down. All right, let's just explore!
