Miniature Garden Chemister

33. Road to Curse

In a deep, shimmering dark forest.

Leaving a duchon a little away from Master Lettysreel's grave, he asks about the entrance.

It's this midnight, but there are two tomb guards who are watching.

"Hmm… it seems difficult to get in through the gate."

"Right. Let's check around a little bit and find out where we're going to put it."

"Okay."

It is difficult to squeeze the eyes of a watchman.

Besides... I remember Ki making a little noise when I opened the gate.

I didn't care that much during the day, but now that I'm quiet, that's terribly noticeable.

I'll try to move along the gate, but it seems to surround the grave with no gaps.

"... you don't have a place to put it."

"Hmmm... I just have to climb, huh?"

"What…………?

"……… Wind, Exploration!

Fluffiness and wind broke out with the voice of Ikuru.

The gentle airflow is pleasant. It's the wind magic that can use Ichiru. Although attacking magic cannot be used due to the restrictions of the cursed slave, he makes up for it with a weapon called a stick.

"... right, a little further north from here is the furthest from the gate. Let's go inside from there."

"Mm, ok............!

Walk for about 10 minutes and Ikuru signals a stop with his hand.

If you look up at the enclosure wondering if this is the farthest place from the grave guard elf...... very expensive. It's made of wood walls, but probably because we know this is the weak spot, or higher than anywhere else.

Ickle is touching the wall, but I don't think I can climb anything like this.

"Hmm..."

"? Ickle, what's up...... Huh?

The next moment, Ikuru danced.

Huh? And my voice, which leaked by accident, was scratched out by the wind... and if you notice, the icle is on a high tree enclosure. I wonder what the hell happened. Pocahontas and I open my mouth.

He kicked up the ground and danced the universe with the momentum of flaming out of the stick with his hands on the wooden wall. Keep your body spinning, on the wall when you notice.

"Wow......"

I think the walls are about 15 meters tall, probably about five stories tall. What am I supposed to do, even though I think Ickle is a lot worse to get over easily.

I saw the moon just behind the icle and it's backlit. I turn my thoughts about what to do while I think it's like I'm about to melt in the dark night.

"Look, Hinami-san, hurry up"

"What?"

"What, you have it, don't you? Sweet Mamo."

"Ahhh!

Speaking of which, I remembered I was bringing a sweet potato I got in a tumble.

Take out what was under the bag and stare.... You said you could eat raw, but is that true? Somehow, I thought it would be okay to eat raw.

"What's wrong with you?

".................. Mogu!

Isn't Ichiru eating with his neck tied? And that's what he asked me...... I never grabbed a sweet potato. Although it is still raw, I feel safe that it is not otherwise unsavory.

Well, it's delicious! Not that it's true, though.

"Mm, floated............!

"Look, it's this way."

"Ugh!

My body slowly rises as I follow a fluffy floating sensation. Ikuru is on the call, so he punches his hand and moves his body to get there.

It's important that you accidentally dance high above the equals.

"Ickle...... Huh!

Me taking Ickle's hand and floating next door fluffy. I can do something like control for once, but I have trouble getting into some unforeseen situation, so I hold my hand tight.

And look in front of you...... I raise my voice of admiration.

"Wow......! And the starry sky, but the flowers on Master Lettysreel's tomb look beautiful in the moonlight."

"Right. It's hard to come from such a high place."

That's a wall of 15 meters. The view from here is stunning, although if you look directly below you may tremble. The blooming flowers seemed to protect Master Lettysreel's whereabouts.

"Shall we just go downstairs and wait for the effect of the sweet potato to drop and go to the stone tablet later"

I didn't eat that much, so if I thought about how long it would take me to think the effect would expire soon...... suddenly I could be hugged by Ickle.

"Yikes!?"

"Hmm? Be careful not to tongue, I'll jump."

"Huh? Huh? Oh, oh, my gosh!?"

Said something serious without permission to me and was immediately transferred to execution.

Tong. Lightly Ickle's foot left the wall and threw himself from a height of 15 meters. I screamed unexpectedly, "Be noticed, be quiet" and the scream scratched out in the darkness when Ickle blocked my mouth with his hand.

I just dropped about half way down and felt a drop in the fall speed...... I have eyes for Ickle. At that moment the fluttering wind swung the body that was falling upside down from his head and the ickle spun.

He landed safely off his leg and gently lowered me... but I lost my hips and sat on the ground.

"Surprised...... Ickle, I think that one was too sudden......!!"

No, it was definitely too sudden.

I can't stand that evidence. I may not have had a problem with Ickle, but it's a big problem for me......!

"I'm not dropping Hinami-san or anything."

"Ugh...... Huh! Oh, I know that! I have my heart ready, too."

"I'm sorry. But if you stay too long on the wall and they find you... it would be pointless to be here because of you."

It's, well... it's the best thing. I wanted you to at least wait a moment longer. I think even the jet coaster will fall off after a little more tampering.

"Well, shall we rest a little? That would make the sweet potatoes disappear."

"Yeah……………."

Lie down beside me with a sledge and keep your back on the wooden wall.

... I wonder what would happen to this relationship if I could meet Master Lettysreel safely, while I think Ikuru would do anything.

If the spell slave print disappears, will my contract with Ickle take the form of a cancellation? Or will it continue for five years, the first term of the contract? Then it's just over four years away... but no, if you're not a curse slave, you have to end it properly.

Although I don't know how this world system will do it, I'm sure I will. It made me think a little bit because I felt a little selfish that I didn't want to leave Ickle.

Besides, I'm talking about Shea...... many people officially hire her as she is after the curse slave contract ends. I also feel like a weird story if you ask me if I'm going to hire Ickle, but I thought it would be fun if I did.

"What's wrong with you?

"............ uhh. I kind of thought it was a furious day."

"Well, sure. Hinami-san is surrounded by cases..."

"No, that's not true."

I'll try to argue with Ichiru, who can't deny it perfectly.

I do feel like there was a lot going on around me. In the first place, it was a furious day for me because I met Ickle. Now this seems obvious.

I don't know, I guess this other world life is going well.

"…… Ah!

"Hmm?"

"Looks like the effect of the sweet potato is over. I don't like it when they find me here. Shall we go to Master Lettysreel's grave marker?"

I get up with my breasts soiled and relieved that I could stand on my own properly.

If I went here one more time, I might have just had pity and tears in my eyes. When I was in the mood, Ikuru laughed at me.

◇ ◇ ◇

A world of quiet darkness. As if the flowers would bless...... the stone tablet of Master Lettysreel sitting gently in its center.

Step over slowly and gently touch that tablet. I wonder if it's okay to turn my eyes to Japanese, which is carved, and cast a spell here.

But I can't help thinking about it. If it doesn't open, that's embarrassing, but now it's the only information we have, so we have to do it.

Yes, a euphemism spelled in Japanese.

"……… Hilarious!!"

Please, please open it, Master Stone! No, if they ask me how the tablet works, I don't know. Because stone tablets are not doors......!

But I'm relieved that my concern seemed worried. I made a noise with the gogo and the stone tablet slowly slid to the side...... a hidden staircase leading to the basement appeared in front of me and Ichle.

Relax that the euphemism has been properly passed, and breathe.

"…… underground, right? Stairs?"

"Yeah. It looks pretty dusty, so maybe I haven't been in for a long time"

"I guess. You don't think it's a trick like this, let alone a grave."

I knew in an instant that there was dust and the season was in.

... I don't like demons either, but even with rats and stuff, I don't like that. I'm probably running away because I'm soggy.

"It's okay, because I'm sure there are no rats!

"Talk about what? Look, I'm coming."

"Hey, wait, Ickle............!

Come on, come on, I'm not ready yet.

Sure, if you were waiting for my mind to get ready, it might not be enough time, but look.... Somehow, the underground passage under the tomb is like a haunted mansion or something.

Yes, that's right, hey, no, quite... I'm afraid.

"Ku, about..."

It never goes on after the icle, but it's dark inside. Now only a little moonlight is coming in through the entrance, but if we go a little further, it will be dark.

It may not have much to do with Ickle, but it has a lot to do with me.

Grab the clothes of Ikuru, the strings that are coming out of the arm, and endure the fear. I feel like my hands are shaking somehow, but I'm sure it's not my fault.

"…… This would be dark even during the day. Master Hinami, what's the light?

"Uh... you don't have a fire, do you?

"Oh, I didn't. You can use that dagger."

"Tanken......?

What are you talking about? For a moment I pounded and immediately remembered the next moment and hurriedly took it out of my bag.

Flower Knife of Protection

Liguris A knife with the protection of God.

Light attributes are granted and do not lose radiance even in the dark.

It's dangerous to get out front, but keep it for protection!

Yes, it was. My gear I got from Master Rig at the point......! Because it's a knife, you should always have it where you can take it out, but I was kind of scared and left it in my bag.

If this were to happen, I should have had it without letting my skin go properly.

"Don't forget such amazing things easily……………"

The squeaky face ickle shook his head "at all".

That being said, I can't even play hardly games on adventure. I find it difficult to make such an instant decision, to tell you to do it immediately.

But... from here on out is an undisclosed dungeon. I, too, need to think hard and move on. Even if I'm wrong, I shouldn't do anything to pull Ickle's leg.

If you slip the knife out of the sheath softly, the full brilliance envelops me.

The body part emitted light, illuminating my radius of about three meters. Warm light makes me a little embarrassed to think that it's like a rig......

"Wow. I don't see it up ahead though...... I can see it right around here with this"

"With that, you won't have a problem for now. Let's move on."

"……… Okay."

Slowly, definitely down the stairs one step at a time... I feel like I've been down for about three floors, but the truth is, I can't help it.

At the end of the stairs was a slightly larger hall. There is something like a door, intimidated by its presence. A majestic door, probably about three metres high. I touched it gently with my hand and saw it, but it didn't move.

"…… that's a bad taste door."

"Eh?"

Looking at the door as Ickle stared at it, I wondered what was going on... I felt heat on my left hand.

"What, this………?

"I don't know. But I'm sure there's something here."

"........................... yeah"

The one who had the fever was the little finger on his left hand.

Like a floral crown, the cursed slave print... was glowing lightly. As if claiming something, me and Ickle's cursed slave print increased the glow.

Glancing up at the door that Ickle was an evil hobby, I hurriedly raised the knife high and lit the door.

Yes, because it was clearly imitated by the door.

"The pattern of this door, the same as the cursed slave print of me and Ichle......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
