Earlier the next morning, Hikaru visited the museum again. The museum opens at 9: 00 a.m. and a little early, and there are few visitors at that time.

If you show the order form for the request to the same attendant as yesterday,

"Oh no, are you going to challenge me again without punishing me for failing? All right, so let me give you some examples of the failures of the adventurers my uncle has seen so far. I'm sure it'll help you."

"Oh, no, I'm fine"

"The first thing they do is they're proud of their power —— huh?

The attendant glances, but there was already no sign of Hikaru there.

Due to Hikaru's young appearance, I appreciate you saying that with the friendliness of the attendant, but as a Hikaru, I am in a hurry.

I wanted to do what I had to do without people.

That's why I came alone.

Proceeding through the building while activating "Hidden," there is no one but a surveillance officer on patrol. It felt like there was something like the weight of accumulated history sitting in the quiet building.

Hikaru came before "King Allegro's Treasure Box".

"Hmm... this box is amazing because it's all magic props"

The material is an unknown metal box.

It measures 60cm on the side, 40cm deep and 50cm tall —— apparently. It has a round lid on it that looks like a cylinder cut in half.

The metal is painted red and is still very vibrant red, even though it was hundreds of years old.

The box was embedded with gems everywhere. It varies from round, square, and triangular, and is varied in a wide variety of ways, including peridots, lapis lazuli, and tiger eyes. The most expensive is a diamond with a big ping-pong ball, stuck to the top of the box.

"One of these diamonds is a fortune."

Both the reward for this request and the standing sign next to it contain a statement about "contents", but there is no statement about the "treasure chest" itself.

That must be because more than 100 million guillans will occur with one of these diamonds. That means "I won't give you the box".

"The box is the most expensive, maybe."

A spotlight of demonic props was pouring down this treasure chest, and the box was quietly glimmering.

"Hmmm... push but it won't move"

It doesn't move as if the roots have grown.

The pedestal on which the treasure chest was placed is pierced deep into the ground, and the treasure chest itself does not move to integrate with the pedestal.

"Even with scratches —— hey, I see"

Hikaru tries to take out the knife and slap it on the lid of the box, but the nagging wound was instantly repaired.

"Repair, shape memory and other types of magic props...? This magic alone is incredibly advanced technology."

On the rear side you can see the hinge-like part that connects the lid to the box.

It's a "key hole" in the front that's easy to understand.

"Grandpa."

Hikaru took out two wires.

"You wanted to try it once..."

Try inserting that tip into the key hole. Unlocking —— is picking.

After all, I have never been taught anything about unlocking. The key opening is a classic when it comes to the Rogue profession at RPG, but I don't have a real edge in this world.

"--Hmm? What is this?"

The tip of the wire doesn't touch anywhere.

In Hikaru's memory, key opening is definitely a function of using two wires, one of which turns as if it were a strut, the other of which scratches onto a catch inside the key hole and pushes the spring up.

This should open —— that is.

Of course, there will be different shapes of the key, and I don't think Hikaru's faint knowledge can handle it, but it's different that the wire doesn't touch (...) anywhere.

"I wonder if this is like" Dimensional Dragon's Box ". Different looks and depths, magic that interferes with space... but so-called item-boxy magic hardly ever exists in this world."

Some monsters, like Dimensional Dragons, have that kind of trait, but none of them should have established themselves as witchcraft.

Maybe the Dimensional Dragon material is just used in this key hole.

"Though... you've been pre-informed so far"

I just checked the information I had purchased in advance.

I won't open it even if I try to open it as hard as I can.

It is instantly repaired even if it tries to hurt you.

The use of magic to blow up this treasure chest itself is forbidden. Because if the treasure chest breaks, it loses all the jewelry, so it loses a lot of money, and if it's destroyed to its contents, you can't even see it.

And I can't pick a key hole.

"Previously, the conclusion was' you can't open it unless you find the relative key '"

It is believed that the only way to open this treasure chest is to "find the key" in the shortest possible time because it cannot be moved.

"Well, you do...... you usually think so"

Hikaru felt uncomfortable when he read to this conclusion.

Isn't there a key?

and.

Because there's no such thing as a key that fits the hole where the space inside is being expanded? The key hole is small and the key shouldn't go through the key hole.

This may be the conclusion I felt because Hikaru had a "Dimensional Dragon Box" and I used it a lot. Although the "Dimensional Dragon's Box" bends the laws of physics slightly, otherwise it follows existing laws.

The weight of what's inside is maintained, and time passes.

Totally different from "item box" convenient goods that can be stored from nowhere.

"Then I guess I'll have to use this"

Hikaru opened the soul board there and manipulated the point.

The defeat of a large monster on the Grand Dream continent raised the "Soul Position" by 4, of which 2 points were thrown into "Magic Detection" and turned into MAX.

This "Magic Detection" can widen the range that can be detected by increasing the level, but "Detection Extension" can be better if you just widen the range.

The ability Hikaru wanted is not breadth.

It's a power that allows you to look at magic even more sophisticated.

"Which... ugh!?"

Unexpectedly Hikaru breathed in the beauty of its light.

"... I can see. There's a stream of magic in the treasure chest..."

The magic flow that covers the surface of the treasure chest looks clear. What a beautiful sparkle of magic vegetables that is a grain of magic.

Each gem has its own meaning, which you can't tell by the pah, but it looks like a magic ceremony is written on an embedded pedestal.

One gem takes magic from the air and creates a stream.

A gem releases the magic that covers the entire treasure chest.

A gem grasps the shape of a treasure chest in real time.

A gem accumulates magic used to repair it.

"... wow. It's a piece of magic technology. The magic is covering all the way to the pedestal so we can't even destroy it. But, well, mass production is impossible because we have to go in at all costs with rare materials."

Hikaru there, took the notebook and the blade pen from the bag, plus the ink kettle.

"Then it's time for art... That said, I'm not good at sketching..."

Then it took about half an hour for Hikaru to sketch the treasure chest in mind.

Plus the next day, the opening time of the museum.

The same attendant as yesterday confirmed that the boy adventurer is coming again.

"Uh... it's you. Are you gonna challenge me again? Isn't it time you heard what I've been through?

"It's also interesting to hear that story, but if the box opens, can you tell me who to contact?

The boy must have failed to unlock yesterday and yesterday. But the expression is pale and not particularly discouraging, rather it even looks confident.

Seems a little sleepless, but the two girls behind them are nicotine with their health itself.

"Hey, Paula. I thought it might contain gems."

"I don't know ~. I thought I'd like a letter to your wife or something."

"Paula is too romantic"

"Lavia is too realistic ~"

... Somehow, he seems to believe that "naturally the box will open from now on".

The attendant was interested in what this boy would do.

"Then I'll follow you"

"... Huh?

"Even if I look like this, I'm the chief guide to the visitors, and I'm responsible for contacting Mayor Ville-Zentra, the museum operator, when something happens."

"Oh, I see. Then please."

Funny, the attendant thought. I can't shake this boy's attitude when I say I'm following him.

(I don't know how confident you are... it's good to be young)

The attendant thinks as he walks with the boys.

This "treasure chest of King Allegro" exists above the history of failure and frustration.

"What's your name?"

It's Hikaru.

"Well, that's a good name"

This Hikaru boy will also smash his confidence to pieces of wood dust.

And it is only when he fails that he should teach you about the failures of past challengers.

Some of the failures have since raised their names as adventurers, and others have become ancient history researchers.

For this boy, helping this "setback" turn into something better is his duty as an elder - yes the attendant believed.

(I guess the classic is still because "that adventurer Ft. Hansa has failed in this too". Ft. Hansa is a Rank A Adventurer, and he will know it. Yeah, yeah)

So, of course, the chief attendant didn't even think about the shards.

To myself be a witness to history on this day.
