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

A transfer gate leading from the underground armory. Beyond it was the unknown.

It came out near the top of the mountain. Looking at the foothills, the forest stretches all the way to the horizon.

Unlike Alancia, which had another transfer gate connected to it, this land was green and not attacked by black urns.

We were just going down to the mountainside and checking the plants.

"I've never seen this white flower before... I'm not familiar with mountain plants, but it could be a different continent than Baleon."

When I raise my hips, I look around me.

"There is no mountain range in Burleon that long."

Tall mountains line the north and south. There was no mountain so high and long in Baleon.

In the meantime, Barris ran through the gate.

"We have set up a security system for the armory and gates." How will you explore it? "

"I see... As for Sheol, it would be good if we could bring back the seeds of the nearby plants." However, if you think about it, I would like to be able to make contact with people who probably think of it as the Vader Dragon Kingdom. "

The Vader Dragon Kingdom was not going to be invaded by the Black Tortoise.

At that time, I want to be able to build a cooperative relationship.

"While collecting plants and resources, let's find the City of the Dragon Kingdom in one place." Probably just north of where Lindblum flew off. "

"That would be good." What will happen to the personnel? ”

Barris says,

"I see... it's best to let Riena decide which plants can be used." That's why I want you to come to Riena, and then I want you to come to Ashton or Heinez, who can sense the smell. "The fifteenth one will follow me for now... will Ciel and Mappa come too?"

Shell and Mappa nodded in my voice.

And then I go on.

"I want you to accompany Barris this time." That said, I want you to go ahead and hide yourself from the sky. I want you to let me know if you see any secrets. "

"I understand." But Heel and Princess and I will clear Sheol. ”

"If you say so... should I stop?"

“No, Sheol is ready for any emergency. The presence of the General should not present any particular problem. From the air and land, I thought it would be best to finish the reconnaissance as soon as possible."

"Then, let's do it." You can do a lot of exploring after Camus returns. ”

Then, when Riena and Heinz arrived, we started exploring.

First, we descend the mountain and enter the forest at the foot of the mountain.

"It's a pretty deep forest..."

The sun didn't shine much, and the forest seemed to be in distress as soon as humans entered.

Heiness says with a confident face.

"Leave it to me." In any forest, my nose is the only way to get lost. This time, I let Mappa's brother have some honey. "

Wherever you go, you know right away.

Mappa shakes her head sideways if she wants to say she won't do that, but it's definitely the most anxious element. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Meanwhile, Riena seemed not to be afraid of the forest at all.

"Of course, there are many things that are different from the forest plants that I visited in Baleon... it looks like this is an orange that I saw in Baleon."

Riena gradually puts the plants, seeds, and fruits growing in the forest into the cage.

This is going to increase Sheol's crops a lot.

“Yes! We can expand the field, but maybe we can plant a few young trees in Sheol to create a new forest.”

“I would have liked a street tree.”

I don't know if it will grow in Sheol's climate, but it has the benefits of the world's trees. You should be able to grow a variety of plants.

Mappa and Ciel also picked up nuts that had fallen into the woods.

"Ah, Mappa. Don't eat that mushroom..."

Every now and then, the search went smoothly, except for Mappa picking up a dangerous mushroom.

I haven't heard from the empty Ballis either.

However, Riena stopped her legs and looked around her, wondering if she noticed anything.

"This forest..."

Hinness looked around in the same way and noticed something unusual.

"... ahh, it smells something."

Do you smell that?

When I ask, Hynes rehearses the question.

"No, it doesn't mean it smells special." It's just that this forest is so beautiful. "

"Yes, it's a forest maintained by someone." It's very walkable. ”

I'm not that familiar with the woods.

But I certainly don't feel tired walking in the woods.

“Does that mean someone lives in this forest?”

Hinness nodded slowly after thinking for a moment.

"The number of beasts is small... and they're not all meat-eating beasts." That's all I've walked. If there were bears and wolves, it wouldn't be strange to follow us anymore. "

"This forest is dangerous, so you avoid bears and wolves." Was it a bad idea to pick the ingredients on your own? "

Heinez shook her head to the side of Riena's voice.

"If it's bad, I'll hit you with my hand from the beginning... or maybe you don't want to be noticed."

I'll listen to it and tell Hynes.

"There's no place nearby where you can feel special magic power... but if that's the case, turn around and take a detour to the north."

I want to believe that we are not the same forces as the Vader Dragon Kingdom, but if we were allies, we would be in the Vader Dragon Kingdom's ears.

Riena and Heinez shook their heads vertically, as I agreed.

"Well then... hey, Mappa, let's go." hey..... "

Mappa was grabbing a giant leaf. And when you pull it out, a white, coarse root appears.

"Turnip?──!?"

The turnip suddenly screamed heavily.
