Magi Craft Meister

"The rusted steel door... isn't it... suspicious?"

[Momoko] decided to ask Rhodotus for instructions on the door that appeared before she went down the tunnel.

"Hmm, I don't know what to do..."

Steel doors shall not be installed in tunnels.

You can think of a facility that is clearly alien to the depths of the abandoned pit.

Rhodotus was troubled that the ability to respond to unforeseen circumstances would probably be insufficient for [Peach].

"Rhodotus, is anything unexpected going to happen?"You've been left all this time, haven't you? "

Harunata, the [Puppet], gave advice.

Maybe so, but I can't help you if something happens.

The air inside was still a non-breathable composition.

"I'll investigate carefully, and if there's even a slight anomaly, I'll let you turn back."Either way, we have to investigate. "

That's right.

Harunata went on to say that while there are ways to return and start over again, it is possible that the first discoverers will no longer be themselves.

It is a bit impossible to get the transfer to the Kondak of "Morira" and bring the golem because the weight that can be carried by the transfer is up to 100 kilograms.

"It's troubling... I can't help it. Let's ask Peach to look into it with even more caution"

That's why I decided to ask Momoko to continue the investigation with meticulous care.

Peach should check the opening and closing mechanism of the steel door as instructed.

It is not that there is a particularly complicated locking mechanism, but if the knob next to the handle is twisted, the door opens.

It is pitch black inside. The air is filled with straw more than ever.

Slower than ever, Momoko carefully began to move forward.

It looks like the ground and walls have been treated a little differently than before.

The amount of light in the "lights" used is also reduced by half, which makes it difficult to see, but the information is sufficient.

Compared to before, processing has become more careful, or the irregularities have decreased.

I have the impression that the contractor in charge has changed.

Peach travels at about one kilometer per hour.They are wary of traps.

However, fortunately, there was no such trap, and even after 30 minutes, I was blocked from going to the door again.

What should I do?

Momoko asked Rhodotus for instructions.

"When we get here, we'll have to move on."Please proceed with caution as you have done so far. "

Yes, Lord Rhodotus.

Momoko puts her hand on the front door and tries to open it...

It won't open. It also seems to be made of steel, but it does not appear to be rusted because there is no oxygen in the air.

But the knob doesn't work at all.

It seems like it will break if it is twisted by force.

As a result of trying various things, Momoko asked Rhodotus for instructions again because her eyes did not open.

”Hmm... can't you do any more... okay, come back again”

Okay.

I didn't want to be forced to lose Peach anymore, so Rhodotus instructed me to return.

"... I'm sorry."

"I agree."

No one disagreed with the judgment, but the expressions of regret were all the same.



That's why the party, after consulting, decided to call for reinforcements.

The [Morira (Shinra)] Kondaku who can use the transfer magic returns and explains the situation.

Kondak returns to the Rhodoths with a transfer, and the reinforcements are sent in by a wind float (blow floater)...... That's all we have to say.

This is because it is judged that it is better to explain it from the people who were on the scene than from the magic communication device (manacum).

Well then, let's go.

Kondak was transferred.All we have to do is wait.



"Hmm, did that happen?"

Kondak, who had returned temporarily due to the transfer, had reported to the clan leader, Belials.

Alright, let's send two general-purpose golems for investigation.

Thank you very much.

“I know where it is, so I'll send it out when it arrives tomorrow morning.”

It's helpful.

As soon as it was over, Belials slammed her fingers.

And there came Zion, and offered him a large pot.

Since you've come back so quickly, you can bring back your freshly cooked pots for dinner.

The contents were pork juice.

Ah, thank you.

I was surprised by the unexpected gift, but with a hot pot of pork juice, Kondak returned to the Lords.

Oh, this is Grandmother Theon's pork soup.

And Rhodoth, a great-grandson, took a bite, and found out that it was pork soup made by Zion.

Since he was a little boy, he loved the rice that Theon made.

Sion-sama's food is delicious no matter when you eat it, right?

"It seems to be a lie that I didn't like it when I was young."

No, because I was not good at it, I learned a lot of practice, and over time, I've become what I am now.

Rhodoth told the truth.

Oh, that's Zion-sama.

"I deserve respect."

Theon has struggled from a young age to make the Nordic empire a better place, regardless of his clan's differences.

His character is recognized and admired by all his clans.



Dinner is served, and the party is laughing in the tent.

Momoko keeps an eye on the surroundings, and there is a barrier generator (barrier projector).

It was safe and secure.

Apparently, someone used the mine for some purpose after it was abandoned.

"You think I mistook it for a ruin?"

So you're pretty sure about that.

“The question is, who was the user?”

Umu

I don't think we can move from chatting to talking about things like that.Everyone is curious.

"Do you have any idea when it became an abandoned pit?"

"I heard it was about 500 years ago."

"I don't know if it's after the [War of Magic]... but I don't know anymore"

500 years ago, before the advent of the second-generation magic engineer [Magic Craft Jazz].

In other words, when we were still calling ourselves the [Demon Race].

”... maybe it's a facility related to 'Dexoconai'”

"If so, we need to be more careful tomorrow than today."

"And I want to figure it out somehow."

The camping night is getting late...
