Late. Tamer's day.

Going down the manhole, it was a small brick room. The ceiling is about 2 meters high, I guess.

"Everybody okay?"

"Yah!"

"Moomoo!"

Flying fou doesn't use a ladder in the first place. Olt usually came down the ladder, too. Himka, Ruffle and Sakura are also human shaped, so it's okay.

The problem is Drimo. I walk on two feet at once, but my hands are growing sharp nails, and my feet are short. Can you get down the ladder well?

"Shall I support you downstairs?"

"Mog"

I spoke to Drimo as he looked up at the entrance to the manhole, but apparently he didn't need any help. He's shaking his head to the side.

"Mog"

"So, are you okay?

Drimo putting his foot on the ladder, with some brings. It doesn't look very okay. From the bottom, the tail that jumped out of the overalls tail hole was shaking left-right with the hybrid. He's trying to get off the ladder a little bit while moving his short legs with a chocolate maca.

"Mog"

"Ah!"

I accidentally set myself up under the ladder. 'Cause it looked like he stepped off his feet and fell.

But it was a mistake to see.

Shoo!

Drimo himself took his feet off the ladder and slid down with his hands gripping the ladder. With the power of his hand holding both ends of the ladder, he seems to be gently killing momentum. I would have landed gorgeous without any problems.

Doshin!

"Goo!"

"Mo, mog?

Unless I'm downstairs.

I tried to take Drimo's Pretty Hip, which came down in momentum, with both hands protruding forward, but naturally there's no way he could take it with my poor arm.

I couldn't stand the weight on Zushin and his arm and I fell straight in front of him. It's a form of pushing your face against Drimo's back.

"Stay."

No, it's in the game, so there's nothing painful about it. I say "hurts" reflexively at times like this.

"Are you okay, Drimo?

"Mog ~"

I see you're safe. You just squashed my arm with your ass. Drimo pulls my hand glitchy and makes me stand up.

"Thanks."

"Mog"

Compliments don't bother me. But that's cool! Shit, I think I'm falling in love!

"Moo?"

"Yar?"

As we were doing that, Ort and Fou were peering into the aisle that leads from the room, both of them holding their eyes at night. I guess I see ahead.

"What do you say? We have enemies. Do we?

"M!"

"Yah!"

The orthos swinging their necks full and sideways. Apparently, I don't see any enemies. Still, I can't be alarmed. This is my first place, and I need to be discreet.

"Then let's move on. Olt and Drimo lead the way. Himka and Ruffle behind it. Sakura is behind me. Fou can ride on my shoulder, too. Let me know when you have enemies."

"Yah!"

Fou makes a force kobu with his right arm and nods in a motivating pose that wraps his right sleeve around him with his left hand. You're reliable.

"Is this... a sewer"

Moving on for a while, I went out to a place where the water was flowing next to the aisle. I said sewage, but it was thought to be a place to collect and drain rainwater etc, not a place to so-called drain dirt.

It doesn't smell, and the water is surprisingly clear. Maybe it's a medium water supply.

"Sewer map..."

It's a common dungeon when it comes to RPG. But I don't really like this sewer dungeon. Mostly maze. Yeah, because there are gimmicks available to climb and descend the ladder, which is often very troublesome.

"Nevertheless, I don't have the option to come this far and turn back. Let's just move on."

"M!"

"Mog!"

If you regain your temper and move on, it is the end of the line. A narrow iron lattice had been inserted into the passage and waterway, making it impossible to proceed. The gap is too narrow for even Fou to get through.

"The promise of a time like this is that a few lattice sticks will come off..."

You don't move. I thought it was my lack of arm and Olt and Drimo tried it too, but nothing could be done about it. I can't even destroy it with magic or anything.

"Besides, being able to unleash attack magic means treating it like a dungeon."

We need to raise the alert level.

"Even so, what am I supposed to do? You mean find him in a hidden corridor on the way? Or is there a shortage of key items to move on?

Like the Spirit's altar, there's a chance we'll have to move on without the keys.

But when I was worried, Ruffle jumped into the water. And I dive Zabun straight into the water.

"Hey, Ruffle. Hey, what's up?

"Humu!"

"Is that it?"

Oh, my God, Ruffle was on the other side of the iron lattice. Was it a pattern with holes in the water?

"You should have realized at the point that it wasn't dirty water. Just, can Himka get in the water?

"Him......"

In response to my question, Himka nods with an awfully disgusting face. Looks like I can put it in the water for once. Though the Spirit of Fire, I guess it's because my body is not made of fire.

But Himka, standing down the waterway and putting it on the water to her waist, looks like she doesn't like it at all.

It's possible to get into the water again and again in the future, and if I were forced to act underwater, wouldn't my liking be reduced?

Let's switch between Himka and Rick here.

"Himka, leave me a message in the field."

"Him."

"And it's a Rick summons!

I was a little worried about which to do with my bear, but I left it to Rick in anticipation of picking it up.

"Kikku...... Gyu!

"Yabe! Rick! Here, get him!

"Queue!"

Rick had fallen into the waterway shortly after the summons because he replaced it with Himka, who was in the waterway. I panicked and rushed to rescue Rick, who was drowning.

"Are you all right?

"Kiku......"

I'm blubbering my hair over my palm and flying water and air. There's no damage, and I seem to have had a little bit of a rush.

Well, I'm sorry I almost drowned, but I'm going to have you diving in the water again soon.
