Nothing happened until we reached the crack, and we rendezvoused with Russell, and we got down to the basement as soon as possible.
I'm going down a cliff about 30 meters from the crack to the ground, but I'm not that scared right now.
"I'll get down first and make sure it's safe. ---Hacro, Yuran"
Hakuro wraps my body in the wind so that Yuran can build a scaffold in the air at any time.
If you enclose the physical reinforcement, you can land even if you jump from here normally, but it is not possible because the ground may collapse due to the impact of the landing.
Scaffolding confirmation should be a top priority in ruins surveys.
I think of Sheena's teachings again and again in my mind.
"Kate, can I leave Nia to her small body?"
"No, Mother, treat me like a child...."
"I don't mind. I'll take care of it."
"That's why...!!!!"
Turn your back to Nia as you step on the basement.
Nailed and complaining, I jumped off the cliff to keep going forward. [M]
"Eh, kite-kun!?"
Listening to Russell's astonishing voice, Hakuro set himself up in the air.
As the rate of fall slows down, Yuran's magic lets him build a scaffold and descend downwards with it as a scaffold.
"Wow, it feels so stable...."
I landed lightly in the basement without danger and look up and tell him that I got off safely. [M]
The voice of Sheena returns, "Ok," and a long rope hangs from above your head as the sky light plunges in.
For now, I was waiting with Nia on my back down, and something black came down here, conveying a shadow of rope from above my head.
When it reaches my feet, Reefa, Sheena, and Russell appear like they're rising from the shadows.
"Shadow Path"... Arrived "
It's handy magic.
"No, no, this is easy...."
Reefer brought me here in the shadows, and now she knows her magic is useful.
Now that everyone has come down here, I will light a flame that will become a seed fire in the magical instrument shaped pine light that was handed over in advance.
"Sif, fire."
Hmm.
The flames generated by Shifu give off a bright light.
The lighted areas were engraved with tiles and murals like ruins.
"This is the ruins....."
"There's a door just ahead. Let's go there first."
Each travels through the ruins with a pine beam.
It's a strange feeling to say something.
Such anxiety and exhilaration as stepping into an area you don't know.
"Mr. Kite."
Yes?
"Remember that feeling."
Sheena laughs at how I feel. [M]
"Explorer of the Unknown. It brings us a sense of exaltation that we cannot express in words, but it is also a danger to our own lives."
"... yes"
When she carved her words into her chest, a big door appeared in front of her.
Double-opening old door.
Other ruins are broken and damaged, but this door is not chipped, on the contrary, it looks intact.
"Sheena-san, this door... is that right?"
"Yes, it's the last time I saw it, and it's the last time I saw it, and that means nobody's inside yet."
A closer look reveals a black lion with a white pattern engraved on the door like a mural.
Underneath is a picture of dozens of people falling asleep, and Russell, who saw it, began to roar with an interesting look while touching his glasses.
"There's no doubt about that. A god beast that protects human death and sleep. Its breath gives peace to those who suffer, and its eyes set forth a man with a merciful heart... wow, this is a door that has never been opened in such a long time..."
God Beast Beor Hydun.
There may be a beast here.
Taking a little stand on the fact, Sheena turns back to Rifa and Nia.
"In the meantime, why don't you both stand in front of the door?"
I don't know if it's that easy to open.
Well, let's give it a try.
Subtle facial referees and Near move in front of the door.
It has been about a dozen seconds since then, but the door does not react even if it is dull.
"Doesn't it look good?"
"It won't open at all....."
Both of them are tilting their necks, but we can't help it if the door doesn't open here.
Should this be fixed at once?
Considering the possibility of leaving, Russell calls out to both of them.
"Why don't you both try some magic?"
Magic?
"If the power of the two of us came from our presence in this ruins, we might use it when we enter."
…… Let's give it a try, Rifa. "
"Yeah."
Now facing the door, Rifa and Nia activate their magic.
The magic of manipulating shadows and the magic of manipulating cold air.
The moment those two overflowed their bodies, the door that had never reacted before slowly started to move.
... did you react to both forces?
"Is this destiny, too...."
Sheena sighs as she looks at the open door.
After that, when she tried to ask Sheena what to do, she put the luggage she had on the spot.
"As we discussed beforehand, I will wait here for you. If something goes wrong or someone gets hurt, come back immediately."
"... yeah, I got it."
"I'm waiting here for you to return."
We're heading to the ruins that are at the root of the power of Rifa and Nia.
I don't know what's going to happen there, but Sheena's anxiety about the two of us will be considerable.
Russell will take care of these kids.
"... ahh, let me handle it"
Nodding at her words, Russell rearranges her luggage so as to regain her nervousness.
Next, Sheena looks at me. [M]
"Kite-kun, I've taught you everything you can in this short time. All that's left is to keep it alive."
"Thank you so much for your time. I will always come back alive with my teachings."
In a short period of time, but with mindset and minimal knowledge.
I don't think I'm going to be able to rely on Russell enough, but I'll deal with it calmly without increasing my knowledge of baked blades.
"After all, why don't you inherit my trail?"
"Eh? I wouldn't wish I could have an adventure like Sheena or Russell. Hahaha"
"" Whispering... "
She replied laughingly to Sheena's words.
I'm not very free right now, but I'm going to get a lot more of these opportunities than I get a job as an adventurer.
... I wonder why Rifa and Nia look like they said, "Shit!?"
"Really? Really? It was fun when you guys came home."
You look happy.
As she leaned her neck to Sheena, Russell, who was checking her luggage, stood up.
Well then, let's go in. Start with a light investigation and then return to this location--- to gather your information. Let's not rush, let's not rush, let's steady. "
"Yes!"
With Russell at the forefront, we step into the ruins through the open doors.
Inside, you can see sand and dust, but they maintain an unusually beautiful appearance, and they can already understand how historically valuable this place is.
Pure Demon of Gold......
"---!"
While walking along a path illuminated by pine lights, something like someone's voice echoes in your head.
The voice of a gentle man somewhere.
However, I couldn't hear it after murmuring about it, but someone did make me hear it.
"Kate, what's wrong?"
"Oh, but... this could really be here."
Looking at the back of the passage in the dark, I replied to Shif who looked up at me worriedly.
Several pillars line the high ceilings.
I don't know how widespread it is and how far it goes, but I'm sure there is a god beast hiding somewhere in this ruins like Melia.
