The Branded Female Fencer

"Come on."

"Which way?

"I will show you to Master Miriazal."

Without waiting for a reply to the obligatory words, Kiko began to walk. Soon the maple followed, too, but it is finally a degree of walking speed on the run, even though it is after the cobwebs who are supposed to walk quietly.

Maple thinks you can slow down a little, but it was not until a while ago that I could see the mood of Minko at that time.

Tsukiko led Maple into his own private room, but it was the first time that Maple had entered Tsukiko's private room. Orders are often made incorrectly, and none of them talk about personal matters other than business. It was actually the first time I had even found out I had a private room.

Nevertheless, I thought it was a more murderous room, but there are more books than I imagined. And stuff. Books range from specialty books in economics and medicine to private novels, adventure tans, romance novels, and even entertainment scandal (scandal) ads without sound or leaves. Scattered on the ground are all kinds of play tools and toys, dolls, even artwork and souvenirs that are likely to be sold in outdoor stores. Maple was distressed by the lack of clarity and how to think about it.

But as if to see the mood, Koko talks to me.

"You must be confused, right?

"Well, yes"

"What impression do you have in this room?

"You don't have too much unity"

"I see, the same impression I once had. No, whoever entered this room, everything would have been the same."

Maple tilted his neck when he gave a strange expression. Doesn't this room belong to Kiko? No, I come to the conclusion that it belongs to "Koko".

"Generation after generation, the chamber of Tsuko. Is that what this is about?

"I'm glad you guessed. This room has been Kiko's room for generations. There's nothing restrictive about intrusion, and there's no perception inhibition. It's just that it's there at equal intervals, just like the rest of the room, and yet it's not even placed in an important place, and no one has visited this room in 10 years. Don't you think it's strange to be human?

"I guess it's because you don't have any friends"

Koko grinned bitterly at the maple, which told him something difficult to say.

"Exactly. Because you are lonely."

"The whole mouthless thing won't have friends in the true sense of the word or anything, but nevertheless sideways connections should be important. You're not in sync?

"Dead, slippery. Hamitte bars are the exception, I don't know him because he left the line early. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You'll be talking about that, too.

Let's start here. "

Upon fixing some of the bookshelves, Tsuko held the toy pole that had been placed on the ground in his hand, snagged it onto a hook hanging from the ceiling, and simultaneously stepped on part of the ground. Then the bookshelf moved, and a staircase appeared leading down.

When Maple saw the hidden staircase, he gave a rugged look. Because I found out it was something I shouldn't know. Being shown this means an inevitable story awaits. Maple had to decide to be ready.

Tsuko was taking a quick look at the change in the look of the maple, urging him to follow it.

"Don't look so blatantly disgusted."

"I would also feel bad if I could suddenly show you something like this. It is impossible to naturally notice this hidden door. With all this scattering, knowing the right steps is nothing but a miracle. If you don't tell me, I've shown you a passageway that I don't know - and that makes it a troublesome project."

"It's a really good guess, but the disgusting look there made a good impression on me the other way around. Follow me and explain the unpleasant."

Diving underground, that was a bigger space than I thought. It has once been heard that the basement of the Deep Green Palace is like a labyrinth, but it is said that Miriazal is the only one who knows the full extent of those. Rumor has it Arnelia can resist underground and fight for years, even if all the ground facilities are gone.

The rumor was credible, but after spending years, it takes a lot of space. Maple was surprised that it was all that big, but he was convinced when he saw the underground space. Longitudinal holes and other deeper than the bottom can be seen. Maple tried throwing stones at me to try, but the sound of it doesn't seem to come back. I saw it, and Kiko threw down the potatoes, but I couldn't even see the light at all.

Maple at its vertical depth.

"I don't know how deep I am either. Historical Kiriko too. You said you didn't even know Master Miriazal. It's about 15 layers at best."

"What the hell is this? No, no way."

"That's not true. This is a ruin, Maple. The Deep Green Palace is built on a ruin."

I was surprised, but this can solve some questions. Why wealth gathers in Arnelia, how to refine and use Demonic Crystal Stone, and Arnelia's own sorcery. Considering that it was all a benefit to the ruins, the point goes.

But questions remain. Why show yourself something like this now? But the question will soon be resolved.
