Reincarnation Monarch
Lesson 443: The Underground Labyrinth
"... hey, why are you getting into this so complicated? ……
Gaius zeroed his stupidity in sighing against Carmis beside him after a stroll around the sewers flowing through the basement of the town of Tulka.
"This town originally flourished as a mining ground for ore. There's very little shadow of it now."
"... you mean this shitty basement after you've finished mining?
"That's right. It's already been over a hundred years since I took it all out. After that, it was used primarily as a catacombs."
"... oh what's in the hole in the wall of the basement where you can see the chills from earlier was the sarcophagus..."
As Gaius put it, the walls were almost equally spaced with holes, where various forms of sarcophagus were housed.
"That's right. I hear the cemetery has been around since I was mining. Looks like he used it as a graveyard from where he was finished digging. So the numbers are immeasurable."
"So there's a sarcophagus for hundreds of years?
"That's the thing. But, well, aside from that, what do we do? That means we can't find them just looking for them. Maybe they've already gone off the ground through some entrance or exit?
"... indeed. If so, will the underground search be dismantled early and out of the ground... but hey, even after all this time spent searching around, I don't know if I'm out of the ground, maybe after I've already fled somewhere... here we go. Completely operational failure."
Gaius dropped his shoulder disappointingly and became a stubborn foothold.
Then suddenly, Carmis noticed a forward anomaly and blanketed a lantern in his hand.
"Hey! Look forward. There's something here!?"
To Carmis' sharp voice, Gaius looked forward as a hack.
"... what? Black...... smoke?... No, I'm not. No... but what is that?
In front of the Gaius, a shadow gushed out of the black as well, shaking them with all kinds of inviting feelings.
"... there's a shadow... inviting us? ……
Gaius approached with a slow foothold, even as he increased his vigilance.
"Hey, are you okay?... I have a bad feeling about this, huh?
Calmis whispered a little frightened as she tightly surrounded Gaius's back.
Then Gaius looked back in a frightened mood and said.
"... well, come on, you're a magician, aren't you? Why are you hiding behind my back? I mean, he's bigger than me, and he's not hiding at all."
"I tell you, I'm not as good at rough things as you are. I specialize in medical matters."
"... a medical relationship. You've been manipulating dragons for thousands of years to storm them."
"That's why you said you failed to control it. I'm not fit to be rough in the first place."
"... ahhh. Well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
When Gaius said so, he restarted his mind and proceeded with his steps.
