I jumped into the hole to help Miss Russell, who fell into the pit, and I fell deep underground with him.

Luckily, Mr. Russell doesn't seem to be injured, but the situation is not very good.

We don't know how deep we are right now, and we don't even know if there's a way back to the upper echelons in the first place.

"In my experience, there's always a way back to the top."

"Always?"

"Yeah, this is a place made by humans. It's not strange that there's a way back up, and it's a pretty big space, so I don't think there's just one way out."

Me and Shif nodded as if they were good at what Russell said as she strode through the darkness with her magic trick.

I admire his calmness to act without being upset in this situation, and I doubt that calmness a little bit.

"Mr. Russell, are you sure you're okay? After all... I think it fell off quite a height."

"If you were a normal person, falling from that height would make you bigger and smaller, and you'd get hurt...."

Is it possible that she is patient?

A subtle physical enhancement enhances the sense of smell, but it does not smell of blood.

Are you really not injured...?

No, I don't want you to get hurt.

"J... Actually, I'm physically sturdy. It's all about the heavy body."

"I see... I mean... your muscles are amazing?"

"Heh?... ah, oh, yeah. It's like that."

I can't help it if I'm in shape.

I also have the magic of the Pure Demon, so it's no wonder my body is even as sturdy as Russell's.

"... are you two okay?"

The next thing I'm worried about is the leftovers, Rifa and Nia.

Will it be okay without me? [M]

When you're worried, Russell walks in front of you and calls to cheer you up.

"I think they'll be fine with their strength, right?"

"No, I'm worried if you're hungry... because I have food and Russell have it."

"Is that what you're worried about...?"

* giggle *... you should have let them have food, not just me?

"No, if I let you have it, I'll snack on it when it doesn't matter at all, and it'll disappear at the most important time...! I'm like an appetite lord...!"

"Don't you trust them...?"

"Rather the opposite. Because I trust you...!"

I'm too worried.

Especially if Rifa doesn't try to move forward into the hole without thinking.

I don't want to do anything imprudent because I have some calm Nia, but there are some things that could happen.

"Kate, I'm worried about both of you, but let's make it a priority to get up here first."

"... that's right."

Should we deal with this situation first?

With that in mind, as you move forward in your consciousness - suddenly, you notice several signs appearing without warning.

It came out like a gush, and me and Russell stopped.

"---Mr. Russell....."

"This is...."

Stay back, please.

Hold the tonfur with the lime deformed in your right hand.

Multiple signs of appearance emerge in a place illuminated by magic instruments with a fluttering array of steps.

The figure is not human.

"... this is...!"

It is the same shadow of the human form created by Rifa who fulfilled the Pure Magic Awakening.

It's like a black mannequin doll, each with a transparent weapon made of ice, and I can see that it's approaching us hostile anyway.

"It doesn't make any sense! Yuran!"

"Shah!"

Create a magical wall from Yuran, who moved to his left arm, and have him cover around Russell, who is illuminating the surroundings behind him.

"Kate-kun!?"

"I'll protect you!"

Put flames on gloves and tonfur and stand up while lighting up.

Gradually, there are more signs of human shadows.

I can't afford to take care of everything, so just deal with them right now and leave with Russell at the right time....!

"Come on, come on!"

The black figures are attacking us with my voice. [M]

Grabbing the spear that was shaken down by the clutter with a tonfa, he attached his fist to his abdomen---hacro was released.

"Blow it up!"

"Gah!"

Hakuro appears with a storm from his fist, causing him to bite the black shadow from close range.

A blow to blow - that should be it, but Hakuro eats and tears the black shadow's torso apart.

"Kite! It looks like it's real, but it's fragile!"

"If you're not a creature, I'll do it!"

Attack Russell and destroy the spinning tonfa.

Turn around and take out the hip rope, wrap it around the arm of the individual about 10 meters away, and pull it to the force.

Hmm!

The torso of the attracted figure is deformed from the tonfa to the sword and penetrated with lime.

As it collapsed and vanished, about five more shadows came from the front.

"Coming at the same time!"

"Inoguchi genius...! Hmm!"

Reach the rope in your left hand and wrap it around your neck.

He stabbed the opponent with a sword as he cut the drawn shadow into a shield.

———

"Sweet!"

The third pieces stick out the ice made Rapier.

Judging that I couldn't defend myself with a sword, I immediately replaced it with a rope in my left hand, and while attacking, I took Rapier and stabbed him in the torso.

——— Two more coming!

Huh!

Squeeze the rope, wrap it around the tip of the ice sword and grab it by pulling it here.

With a cool touch, he once again stabs an ice sword at an individual who has no weapon, confirming that it is made of ice, and grabs the face of the fifth shadow that finally hits him.

"Can you talk!? How about it!?"

"No, they seem to be following some order, but they don't have the will!"

"Well then, nnhhh!"

Leave it to physical fortification, shake the grabbed head and blow the others away.

It's not that strong.

But there are only a few.

Honestly, we can fight them until they stop coming out, but that's not a very good option.

"Stopping...!?"

"It's highly likely. I don't know what the purpose is!"

Are you going to drain us here?

Or are you just trying to get rid of it?

I don't know.

I don't know, but it makes no sense to fight here like this!

"I'll blow it all at once! Let's go, everybody!!"

Together with the Lime, who turned into the Great Sword, I will combine all the powers of my wizard.

With a big sword wrapped in the wind and a flame, I wave it with the eyes of an infinitely rising figure.

"Cut it out! Tamers Braido!"

In a moment, a flaming storm erupts in the ruins of darkness.

The flames that were thrown before my eyes swallowed up a large number of people and ran around vast ruins. [M]

"Mr. Russell! I'm leaving!! Can you run!?"

"Ah, ah!"

Remove the magical wall that covers Russell's surroundings before he sees it and run with him.

Ask questions about the shadow earlier while running side-by-side with Russell, whose leg force is not commensurate with her large body.

Russell, is that it!

"Probably Bern Hydun's family!"

"Why is that coming at us!?"

There was something similar to the magic of Rifa and Nia: shadow and ice, so I thought it was thin.

"No, maybe I'm the one being attacked! I think you were just in the way!"

"Why are you being targeted!?"

"I don't know! After all, if you're just investigating ruins, you may have an invisible curse or something, so maybe that's why!"

I don't know why Mr. Russell is being targeted.

Maybe he's hiding something, but we need to get out of here now.
