The Cave King will live a Paradise Life -Becoming the strongest with the mining skill?-

"So the Balpas are still investigating the island?

I asked Ariel on the guard tower.

"Yes, the King himself was ordered to investigate."

"I see....."

Alice lowered her head as a human being.

"I'm sorry. Do whatever you want. But what else can I do?"

"I know. You did it for the island. Thank you."

Ariel poisoned the Battleship's wounded when he gave them medicine. That's how he asked them what they wanted.

I ask Ariel.

"Is that ship's royalty just Oren and Balpas?

"Yes, it looks like you were asked by two royals to investigate the island. The Supreme Commander, both of them."

I see. I'm sure that's Oren's best shot... Yerevan, what do you say?

When I asked, Yerevan said.

"You're that blonde kid, right? The princess is watching now, but I don't think there's any particular movement. I hear you're saying something bumpy."

"He has the [Sage] crest. You can see our magic. That's why they won't show their hands."

"Heh, the kingdoms aren't that bad either."

When Yerevan snapped his neck boringly, Ariel continued with a serious face.

"He... is Mr. Oren... ah, no"

"Yeah? What's up, Ariel?

"No... I didn't ask for the details, but I was talking to the sailors about what was bothering me."

What?

"That's... Oren's fear. They all looked scared."

"I see... he does."

Did you know His Majesty?

"Oh, I know him well. But I won't let him do anything while I'm on this island. Everyone, stay alert."

That's how I answered a few words.

Alice and Yerevan lowered their heads and said, "Yes."

I don't really like Oren myself. I won't let anything happen to this island, and I need you to get back to me.

Yes... I won't let him do anything anymore.

I kept watching the magic reactions in the warehouse.

Goodbye! It was fun!

Balpas waved at the entrance to the private room in the warehouse and said something he didn't want to hear.

Looking back at a woman named Macha, like an old dwarf.

Seeing the matcha wink out of the warehouse, Balpas exhales.

... yeah. I don't want to see a woman's face for a while.

Balpas was about to break his heart when Macha's onslaught broke out in bed.

At first, Balpas had to respond to the request to gather information as well.

However, Macha did not give Balpas time to speak and danced madly in silence on top of that.

Balpas repeatedly begged for kindness, but Macha didn't let go of it.

Of course, there is no need for a barpus. Stick a secret poison needle into the macha and try to manipulate it as you please.

It was a powerful poison that I had used many times before to spit information out. But the poison never worked on Macha.

The exhausted Balpas were completely defeated in front of Macha. For the last hour, Macha just did what she wanted to do.

... shit. I can't believe I'm being held back like a kid.

It's a regrettable balpass, but I feel Macha's mouth coming back to my head, and I immediately think of work.

Calm down... me. He must have prevented the poison with magic or something.

Either way, I underestimated the island.

I quickly realized that the defenses were strong, such as walls and equipment. But the spy doesn't seem to have a clue.

I don't know what to do from now on....

It has already been found that this island is not an easy place to fall. It is also clear that they are self-sufficient when looking at the food and water they are supplied with.

And Heel declared that it was not the court's word. However, they said they would fix the ship and send it back to the mainland. If we don't do anything, we'll all be safe.

If you were a king, you would have lived in untouchable dragons and sought a path of harmony with your heels.

But my father doesn't know.

My father told me to reveal everything about this island. If you can't go home, you will surely be told that you abandoned your job.

Barpus sighed again.

... it's going to be the most troublesome opponent I've ever had.

The magic of the heels is powerful, considering that Oren easily retracted with a single heel and that the sailor was easily healed by magic.

It's obvious that you saw the first explosion.

You have no choice but to earn it on your own feet, not with threats of force, not with poison.

Balpas smacked the floor with his feet several times with a determined face.

Then a man wearing a hood arrives nearby.

Balpas wears a hood and heads towards the square of the warehouse with the man.

So the man in the hood took off his hood.

There were Balpas and a couple of men.

Strictly speaking, it looks like a Balpas face. Belonging to Balpas with the emblem [Hallucinator], you can illusion yourself from the surroundings.

Balpas was asking this man to be his shadow warrior.

The man whispered to Balpas.

"Your Highness... should I explore?

Of course, there was also a hand to use this man to mislead the people of the island.

However, Balpas did not take the risk of being found out and who his men were.

"No, it's okay. Next time, I'll do everything I can."

The best way to gather information is to use your crest [Night of the Night]. Balpas believed so.

[Night] was a powerful crest that not only disappeared, but also had the power to silence magical reactions, breathing and foot sounds.

When Balpas made it clear, he took out the vial and sprinkled the white powder on himself.

This is a powder that produces a magical reaction, a tool that doesn't make you feel unnatural to suddenly turn off your magical reaction.

"... well then, I'll go. Never leave here. And that guy... if Oren makes any suspicious moves, stop immediately. It's no wonder they killed all of us."

Balpas' anxiety was also on his side. It's the presence of Oren.

The whole crew gathered in this warehouse and found out that there were obviously some luxurious young men who were not sailors or military personnel.

Barpus immediately realized that Oren was the one who brought him to the University of Magic.

I don't know what Oren and them would do... with Oren's voice, I could have bought the anger of the heels.

The man asks Balpas.

"Does that mean... you have to kill him?

"Yes, I'll allow it."

"But isn't your father forgiven?

"If my father asks, I'll explain the situation. We both know secrets that we can't share publicly. What's wrong with killing a prince?"

"I understand...."

I'm asking you.

Balpas leaves the warehouse with a light step when he wipes out the powder.

After all, none of the guards will notice.

Confirming that, Balpas decided to look around the island.

It's a pretty solid port.....

Fine stone piers and facilities like docks and shipyards. Balpas even remembered how impressed he was that he made this much of a place.

Towers, walls, and warehouses are also splendid. The defenses and stockpiles of weapons and supplies for this purpose appear to be adequate.

Who the hell made this up?

Most likely, Lord Barleon's daughter, Leila, was supporting the heel that was washed here.

Originally descended from the Emperor. Maybe he used his hidden assets.

However, it is difficult to imagine that money alone can make things up to this point in a short time.

Or did you use the mysteries and secrets of the Empire... that huge tree in the back could be something like that.

Balpas thought so and decided to head for the World Tree from the barrier-separated port district.

As I walked through the gates, I saw the construction sites that were advancing everywhere.

You can see huge stones, beautifully shredded marble pillars being carried.

... oh, so many monsters. Is that a slime, a goblin, an oak, a covolt?

The monsters sent from the continent seem to be working.

However, it seems that human beings are in charge of architecture. If you look at a square hat, you might be Principality.

But why do monsters listen so honestly to human instructions? In the first place, goblins, oaks, and covolts should be at war with each other.

It doesn't look like you're being forced to work by magic or something. Balpas saw and felt the monsters smiling and working happily.

The mystery is only deepening. Even deeper... uhh!?

Barpus suddenly stunned at the giant creature that crossed in front of him.

A creature with a lion's front body, a sheep's head on his back, and a snake's tail was carrying a carriage loaded with stone.

This guy... chimera? Yeah? What the hell!?

Behind it, when I saw a giant black spider, Balpas was about to raise his voice. But that might still have been okay.

A dog with an old... face?

There was something with an old man's face the size of a chimera.

Ugh, the way he walked with a low voice reminded Balpas of the end of the world.

On top of that, there is also an old man with a beard that is very similar to the other person's Macha.

Hmm, what the hell are these... sky... dragons?

In the sky was the figure of Wyburn in an old age book.

They are chasing big red dragons and small red dragons. Elt was training Fall and Wyburn to fly.

"Come on! Nice dragons don't build wings!

Shh, talking... a dragon?

Balpas feels his feet trembling. I felt like I had stepped into a horrible place.

It would be better to turn around and concentrate on Oren's surveillance in order to calm everything down. Balpas rethinks.

However, Balpas, who had exposed all kinds of information, still felt an unprecedented sense of rejuvenation in the unpredictable scenery before his eyes.

The one with the heel... what kind of power did you use? What have you done?

Carefully, Balpas' feet were headed for the world tree. I couldn't beat my desire to know everything.

Balpas notices a small rocky mountain on his way to the world trees.

Until then, everything seemed to have been made recently, but only this rocky mountain obviously had a natural shape.

The only way to get to the World Tree is through this passage.

It was obvious to the eyes of Balpas. Into a tunnel in a rocky mountain so it can be sucked in.

Then they found a staircase that was too long to see the bottom nearby.

There are two iron bars stretching along the slope, followed by stairs to sandwich them.

But the walls are filled with glowing stones that don't make you feel dark at all.

There's a lot of monsters coming and going... what's next?

There are monsters with pickles and monsters carrying food. Chimera came from this direction. Stone and other materials may be mined and transported here.

I'm interested, but it's just a tunnel. Balpas thought so and tried to go back to the world tree.

But I realize something.

Heel... his crest.

[Cave King]...

When the word comes to mind, Balpas looks soft.

His crest... made this island?

Everyone made a fool of [Cave King] if he had nothing to do with it. But what if it works in a cave?

The royal emblem, including myself, is flying in many ways. Heels are royalty.

I'm sure of the balpass. The source of power on this island is heel and beyond.

All right, let's get off....

That's what Balpas thought.

All of a sudden, your hands are pounding on the shoulders of Balpas.

... eh?

"Husband, I'm sorry, but there's no entry from there."

Balpas looked back and stood there staring at Cobolt, the man with the dog's head.

Covolt was a highness. Behind it, Ashton looked at Balpas with a sword.

Balpas says to Heinez.

"... why? How do you know?

"Even if you disappear, you can't fool my nose. It's in front of me with the [Hunter] crest."

Ashton nods at Heinez's words.

"Hmm. In the first place, in front of our Kobolt, we can easily see the smell of people."

"Phew...."

With the usual balpass, he would have escaped with a smoke ball.

However, there is no escape on this isolated island.

When Balpas finally appeared, he abandoned his sword and raised his hands.

"Surrender..."

Wow, you know a lot of stuff.

Heinez tries to put an iron restraint on both hands of Barpus.

"Well... do you think there's anyone who's going to look at the sight of this island and try to face it?

There's no way I'm here.

Heinez smiles bitterly and nods at the balpass.

"Hey, you... I'm not dead, am I?

When Balpas asked, he was beaten on the cheek with a hand with a ball of meat on the highness.

"Rest assured. This isn't heaven."

"I see... no, I think you're an angel."

Barpus put a soft meatball in front of him and looked relieved.
