Shinka no Mi

"... hey, it's a long way down, but you still don't get it?

We went into a dungeon with Lutia's father, but how dare you keep going down the stairs.

Inside the dungeon, the stone walls are pined and not that dark.

Though small in number, all the dungeons I've dived so far existed as mazes or rooms.

But right now we haven't even reached our room, rather than the maze, and we haven't seen any demons at all.

"... hey, it's Lutia. I guess he's really here, huh? It's been going down for half an hour."

"I'm here. I do feel that."

"Grunt...... then why don't you at least put it down like a demon! You can't eat it!

"... eater. That's crazy. It's a good thing there's no demons. That doesn't drain your health."

"If you eat that demon, you will recover from lost health and more quickly. Rather, it is even gained by being able to eat unknown foods"

"... I don't know anymore"

Oliga sighed at Lurne's reaction.

So far, letting Lune eat human rice is a failure in my life. Don't get into the top three. Seriously.

As I progressed in awe of Lune's reaction too, I walked into this dungeon and reached my first door.

The door itself doesn't mean it's extraordinarily flashy decorated, but it looks thick and sturdy.

"This... Al know what it is?

"Hmm? I just need to get inside. I can't say for sure... but as an adventurer I've been diving the dungeon for years, I feel somewhat like the room of this dungeon's main existence"

"Huh? Is there suddenly a boss's room or something like that?

"I say we have to reconcile it with previous experience... because the dungeons are often unknown in the first place. That's the dungeon Zola was in. It was a surprise series."

"Something like that..."

When I was convinced by Al's words, Routier was staring at the door with a serious look.

"... what's wrong? Lutia, sister."

"Ahead...... there's a sign of your father"

"Yes!? So you already have Mr. Routier's father beyond this door?

"Maybe..."

"I don't know what to say. If we're gonna meet soon, we've never been over it."

"... what's the real deal?

"I want to get out and have dinner fast!

"... Lutia, sister. You can ignore the foodie."

"Ugh, yeah."

"Origa!?"

No, I think Oliga's handling it right.

Then Salia, who was staring at the door just like Routier, was twisting her neck.

"Hmm? What's up? Salia."

"Huh? Ah... um... I think it's my fault..."

"? Something bothering you?

"Yeah... I mean, I'm curious... I feel like Routier from across the door, so maybe I'm pretty sure I have Routier's father... I mean, I'm going to moya somehow..."

"Is that... the usual wild hunch?

"Yeah, you are."

"Hmm..."

It's a seemingly kidding exchange, but I can't fool around with Salia's wild reckoning.

When you go at the end of the door, you should be somewhat vigilant.

Still... Salia said there were signs similar to Routier from across the door like nothing happened, but I have no idea what those signs are, me.

Of course, I have acquired the art of detecting signs with the training of Mr. Lucius and Zeanos in the underworld, but I have no way of discerning the type of signs or anything.

I wonder how you're doing it? It all feels the same from me...

When he thought about something that didn't matter, Routier seemed determined and put his hand on the door.

"Yeah...... I'm fine. Let's go."

And when you open the door and go ahead...

"Huh?"

"This is..."

- - The night sky was spreading.

The same was true of Zora's dungeon, but the dungeon where this Lutia's father was sealed also had a space as if it were a different world of principles.

There are no shadows like buildings around, meadows are spreading, and shining stars and moon-like things float in the sky.

As far as I know, it's the moon, but this is a different world. It would be another star similar to the moon. Instead, if you see the moon the same size as where it was on Earth, the world you're in is going to be close to being guided out of Earth.

When we all went inside the door, the door closed all by itself and disappeared.

"Become!? Door disappeared!?"

"...... hmm. Completely gone."

Surprised at me, Origa checked the position where the door was, but apparently it really disappeared.

I mean, we're gonna be stuck in this dungeon.

I know we can get out of this with metastatic magic... well, we'll bust through the dungeon ceiling just like we did before.

But I don't care how you look at it, it doesn't look like a dungeon.

Because I didn't think that the smell of the air that was no different from when we were outside or the wind that still makes our skin was a fake world created so pseudo underground. No, the world that spreads within the dungeon isn't determined to be a fake world.

But I feel more like I'm outside in this dungeon than I felt in Zola's dungeon. Are you sure it's inside the dungeon?

I can't help staying in this place for one second, so I push this meadow with nothing.

[The earth of mourning] was hot in the wilderness all around it, but this place has wind, spreads blue meadows, and even feels refreshed.

As he proceeded with vigilance about the appearance of demons and such, Furutia stopped on his feet.

"Ah..."

"Hmm? What's up?

As Routier opened his eyes and stared at something and stopped, so we followed Routier's gaze and looked beyond... one man stood.

The man is wearing the military uniform worn by the men of the Demon King's Army and weaves a red cape from above.

She was quite gusty and looked like a very sinister uncle.

All back hair and eyes were the same color as Routier's.

Routier stares at the man.

"Oh, Father..."

With just one word, we understood who the man in front of us was.

I don't have to shadow Routier somewhere... but you're a tougher man than I expected. More like this, I imagined a good male figure like Lucius and Zeanos.

Thinking about such nonsense, the man, Lutia's father, smiled lightly and spread his hands.

"- Long time no see, Lutya."

"Huh! Father......!

I don't know how long the hell it was apart.

But now that we had met like this, Routier ran off, like he'd unleashed what he'd endured so far.

But...

"Huh! Routier, no!

"Salia!?"

"Huh!? Why are you stopping?"

Oh, my God, I stopped Salia from suddenly hugging Routier and approaching her father.

We are surprised by that and stare at Salia not only to say that we do not understand it as far as Routier is concerned.

But Salia sent a stern gaze at Lutia's father without releasing Lutia.

"You... you're not Routier's father, are you?

"Huh?"

"... who are you? I didn't expect to interrupt our family reunion..."

Routier, who opens his eyes just to say it's impossible, and Routier's father, who looks uncomfortable.

Oliga and Zola were horny in a sudden disturbing situation, and Al was confused without knowing what to say.

I was confused, too, and the only one in this was Lune looking for demons around...... or no food and didn't care how we were doing.

When Routier manages to escape Salia's confinement, he stares at Salia with a kick.

"Salia. Don't say the right thing. I can't possibly be wrong about your father. I'm here, my real father."

"No, I'm not! No, he's my real father, but he's not!

"I don't know what Salia's talking about. Stay out of my way."

Salia can't seem to find the right words and is desperately trying to convince Routier, but Routier didn't care to try to get close to her father.

Look at that, Salia turns her gaze to me.

"Makichi! Stop Lutia!

"Makichi... do you stand in my way too?

"Yeah......?

As far as I'm concerned, I'm not keeping up with the situation at all...

Routier runs out of saying there's no doubt that the man in front of him is his father, but Salia says it's there but not.

... Shit, I'm starting to get confused!

When I look back at Salia and the others, Salia stares at me like she's begging somewhere and Lutia looks at me with a serious look.

There's just one thing that's clear.

I believe in Sarya.

I don't know if what Salia's feeling is a wild prospect.

But I just know that Salia won't mention this for no reason.

"I'm sorry, Routier. I believe in Sarya. So I can't let you go to that guy."

"... can I say I can't but go?

"I'll be so unreasonable that the impossibility won't work."

As Routier kept staring at me, I heard a laugh inadvertently.

"... kkkkk...... kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

"Father...?

The lord of that laugh is Lutia's father, who laughs out loud all the time saying he can't stand it while covering his face with his hands.

"A masterpiece! What a dumb story about a real daughter not being able to spot her father!

"Huh..."

"But it's unpleasant at the same time. Because of the woman there, I thought I'd kill her with this body... but the plan is crazy because of you guys"

"Oh, Father,? Say what..."

Against a grunting rutier, father...... no. Nanica, who looked like her father, had a distorted grin.

"Don't you get it yet? I am not your father. Kisama's father is dead."

――――

"Routier!?"

"Temeye......!

To the man's words in front of him, Routier knelt flashly.

When I rush to support Routier, Al, who sees no man's attitude, suddenly hits me with a man.

But......

"You're a lot of savage women, aren't you? Stand in front of the rest of you. - Get down."

"Huh!?"

At that moment, Al collapses on the spot as if he could be held from the top by something he can't see.

But he didn't kneel, he withstood the pressure of that mystery.

"You know what? Resist the rest of the words"

"Ugh, let it... this, like a non-nobleman...!

"What...? Huh!?"

He was a man who was furious with Al's words, but didn't miss the look of it, Origa was turning behind the man, his neck hanging and sticking Kunai up.

"... neck, I got it"

"Nooo, depressing..."

Oliga's attack arrives well, and even though Kunai stands on his neck, the man doesn't look much damaged just by flashing his face.

But......

"Blowfly bu"

"Ha!? What, you are! Gaha!?"

Salia dived into the man's pocket and unleashed a blow all over her body with that empty stomach.

The shock is even serious, you can even see the shock pushing through the man's back, and the surrounding grass shakes violently in its aftermath.

The man who was thrown out in the air flew straight to Lune, but Lune kicked him off with his feet depressingly, not looking as if he had shown any interest in how it was going.

"We're in the way of finding food!

"Gubba!?"

The kick pierced the flank beautifully, and the man flew far in his unbroken appearance.

Watching that series of streams, I shrugged.

"Erm... I was trying to get my hands on him because I was wondering what he said earlier too... looks like you didn't have to..."

"Right. Is it more alive than that? That guy......"

Zola's right, it would normally be fatal on Origa's offense. Besides, that kunai also has special effects, because it can even cause state anomalies.

Whatever it is, I'm more of a lutier now than a blown man.

"Lutya, are you okay?

"... your father is dead..."

Speaking up, I still couldn't seem to believe the man's words earlier, and he was whining with a vain look.

... I don't know what to say.

I couldn't swallow the situation when I heard my fathers were dead when I was on Earth.

However, if the man he is now is the undisputed father of Routier, it would mean that he is abusing his father's appearance.

I can't forgive that, either.

Nevertheless, with the collaboration of the Sarias earlier, I don't think they are very safe -.

"- Hahaha. I'm surprised."

"Huh!?"

"Sonna...... sure ni body no core capture etahaz......"

"...... hmm. I stabbed Kunai in the neck, too. Another god just now, the same ability as a man?

Oh, my God, the man who was supposed to have been so attacked walked home intact and as if nothing had happened.

Sure, this is the first thing that comes to mind about the abilities of the gods I was hearing about Oliga... but it doesn't look like anything is affecting Salia and the others.

Then, the man looked uncomfortably.

"You... compare the rest to who? It's disrespectful!

"... then who are you?"

In response to my question, the man sighed loudly.

"Ha... ignorance is a horrible thing. I didn't know the rest...... fine. Let me tell you something. The rest will be The Night King."

"The Night King?

I'll twist my neck to words I'm unfamiliar with and see how Salia and the others are, but they all don't seem to know.

"Leave the Night King alone! In this place where night reigns! There's no way you can take him down.

"What, you don't get it unless you try...!

"To?"

"Makichi, no!

"Buhra!?"

In an instant I approached the night king and the moment I tried to punch him, Salia's voice stopping me reached my ear.

For this reason, my fist pierced the face of the King at night in an even more subdued way what had originally been more subdued to the point of not destroying the world.

I ask Salia as she drops off the king at night flying away again.

"Sa, Salia. Why did you stop it?

"Because that man's body is Lutia's father's thing..."

"Huh?"

- You're right, little girl.

"Hmm?"

The night the king, who was supposed to have flown quite far, had already come back near us, rubbing the nose part I hit him with.

Unlike when Salia and the others attacked, the king seems to be damaged the night I attacked him.

And at night the king turned a frightened gaze at me without a heart and was squealing something blurry.

"Oh, isn't that strange? Damage to the ruler of the night…"

"I don't know what you're talking about... but how did you get back? I was going to fly pretty far..."

To my question, the Night King smiled viciously when he returned to Ha and Sanity.

"Huh... don't you see? The rest is the night, and the rest is the night. In other words, the rest exists somewhere at night. Where this night reigns, where no remainder can travel, no distance can exist"

Thank you. Kings and I seem to have the ability to relate to the night.

"That's why in this place where the night reigns, the rest is - there is!?"

"Huh!?"

Suddenly, the night king held his chest and suffered, so we distanced ourselves from the night king and became vigilant.

Then...

"Lou...... ti...... a......!

"Uh... your father...?

The atmosphere of the King changed at night after hitting it earlier.
