Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

"Toya, stop!

It was Hulka who hastily stopped Toya trying to get close to the crate to relax.

"What?"

"You're obviously suspicious of a chest or something like this!

Yes. Crates in abandoned pits or whatever you think is suspicious.

You know, touching it without thinking about it, it's suicidal.

"No, no, when it comes to crates, dungeons, when it comes to dungeons, crates. I mean, definitively obviously, this is a dungeon."

"Too short circuit!? You're not even zero chance that someone put it down!

I disagree with Toya, who shrugs her shoulders like 'heh, boy'.

I thought about it a little bit, too, but that's why you think of it as a chest = (equals) dungeon?

"Given the path we've taken so far, that's a good chance to ignore it, isn't it?

"I hope there's no other way in here."

"... I see. Other entrances and exits."

Given that there were tons of undead and demons on the path, it seems difficult to put a crate in this place, but if there is another entrance or exit nearby, the story is different.

Instead, if you think about the distance you walked, there might even be another entrance somewhere more convenient than the entrance we used.

"No, but do you want me to leave you in a place like this? Is it dangerous?

"There's no bank or anything in this world. Besides, when it comes to a lot of money, it's called" Kasaba. "

"We carry almost the whole fortune, but not for normal people, right?"

When it comes to the wealth of this world, currency and precious metals, plus jewellery, etc.

All currencies are quite heavy because they are coins, and even to the extent of our assets, it is difficult to carry them without a magic bag.

It's also dangerous to leave it at home.

The more you lock it, the safer it is, the less secure it is.

So people like us who have a lot of opportunities to be away from home don't put golden-eyed things in the house, and that's common sense, so on the contrary, no thieves go in.

So what do people who don't have a magic bag, but do have some money?

Gems and ornaments are used at that time.

Compared to coins, the unit price per weight is high and convenient to carry, but the drawbacks include the risk of being grabbed for price differences and rough goods due to the region.

Anyway, if you have a merchant you can trust, getting your hands on a gem that otherwise is difficult for amateurs to discern is quite risky.

Of course we haven't got our hands on it.

Natsuki seems to be somewhat of a gemstone eyewitness, but it's a different matter of whether that criterion is consistent with this world. There is no need, but there is no reason to take risks.

Also used as some other way is to hide it somewhere.

Simple place, how to dig and fill holes under the floor of your house or hide them somewhere you only know them.

Tans deposits and vaults only make sense if some security is secured, so I realise today the value, plain, of a bank that will keep my money safely, even with almost zero interest.

By the way, we can also hide some money in case we have to get away with throwing away all our stuff.

Again, the almost unspoken start is tough... is there anything wrong?

If you have the strength now.

But the hard work you don't have to dare is the style you don't bother to buy. Even if you're young.

"So you mean someone's hidden property or a dungeon chest.... Okay, let's open it."

"So wait. I know how you feel."

Stop Toya for trying to put her hand on the chest again.

By the way, this world, at least outside of town, is not guilty of pickup embezzlement.

I mean, assuming this is someone's hidden property, there's no problem with what we find getting...

"Crates have traps. Danger should be taken into account, right?

"What, common sense doesn't have a trap in the chest that comes out in the first place?

"Where common sense - no, that's a game story, isn't it? It wasn't a dungeon in the first place."

"Right. If people hid it, there's no denying there's a trap."

"I don't think it's a good idea if Toya's going to cancel Han's Cousin."

Yuki says something quite awful to Halka and Natsuki who say the obvious.

Han "cousin" disarmed, that is, telling him to open it without worrying about the damage to the trap, but just didn't like that, Toya takes her hand off the crate.

"... I don't like that there's damage to what's inside, and should I stop that?

"If people set it up, I don't think so..."

To protect the treasure, the treasure is damaged or something.

"If it's in someone else's hands, I'll smash it! 'If you weren't a person, you wouldn't set such a trap.

"In the meantime, I'll look into it."

Nutsuki is the only one of us with both [unlock] and [trap knowledge] skills.

For once, [Trap Knowledge Lv.1] is the only thing I have, but I would say it's a one-handed drop to check the chest.

We'll stay away for a little while and watch.

Seems a little flimsy, but in case you make a mistake and the trap is activated, you can't even rescue them if they're all damaged. In a sense, it is a natural measure.

Watching that way for a few minutes or so. Natsuki twisted his neck slightly and stood up.

"What do you say?

"It's not locked. No traps, I don't think."

"That's kind of vague, isn't it?

"I couldn't find the trap in my knowledge, so. Because I didn't disarm it. It's still level one."

"I can't prove it's not there. All right, Toya, can I open it?

"What, in the course of this story? I was more anxious than before Natsuki checked it out?

When I laughed nicely and urged Toya, Toya looked unusual and hesitant after hitting her earlier.

At first, he seemed optimistic that he was okay, but Natsuki's subtle attitude stirred his anxiety.

"I think you're probably gonna be okay, right? For once, I am skilled. - I've never checked a crate trap before."

"I got more and more anxious?

"To you like that, a 10-foot stick. Use this."

I let Toya grip about 3 meters of stick I took out of my magic bag.

It is an instrument that has saved the lives of many adventurers more than in ancient times.

- In the world of games.

And with the exception of Toya, we were further distanced, as we indicated.

"... we're gonna do this? I'll do it, okay?

"Do it fast."

I'll send Go, Go and gesture to Toya, who I'll check on for nothing.

Toya compares the treasure chest to my face several times, extends her arms like she gave up, and pokes the treasure chest with a twinge at the tip of the stick.

No response.

You were relieved by that, and when you rocked more rattled to make sure nothing happened, you slowly pressed the lid to open the chest.

Gatan, the crate lid opens with the sound of

Stay put for a few seconds.

Toya exhales loudly when she sees nothing happening.

And as he approached the chest carefully and peered inside, he twisted his neck slightly, stuck his hand in and took something out.

"... a sword, huh?

"Oh. And if you [appraise] this, it's just an iron sword, right?

"What a delicate result, huh?

It's not as bad as it sounds garbage, nor is it worth a lot.

It may be about a few pieces of gold if sold, but it won't reach 10 pieces.

It's about a few if you convert it to demonic stones, and even though it's a 'chest' because of it, it's very disappointing.

Shouldn't we rename it 'Box' instead of 'Crate' anymore?

"But you're more likely to be a dungeon"

"Really?

"Yes, because do you think a normal person would hide a cheap sword in a place like this?

"That's impossible."

If there were such a person, it would be quite a trickster.

And it seems quite unlikely that there will be such a person in a world that cannot afford it.

If you're on Earth, some people hide their treasures at play and make treasure maps.

"Dungeons, huh? If that's possible, we need to be alert for the trap, right? Natsuki, can you please?

"Yes, I'll do my best"

Yes. A dungeon increases the danger, along with the possibility of obtaining treasure in the dungeon.

Natsuki nodded with a strange look when he spoke to Haruka.

◇ ◇ ◇

Four days after that.

It was us who expanded our search, but there was no other entrance or exit.

Instead, he had found another new chest and was increasingly more likely to be a dungeon.

By the way, the item coming out of this chest has a subtle effect, a potion to heal the wound.

Why subtle, because compared to what the Hulkas made, it was only on an equivalent or slightly inferior level.

For once, I was able to discern the effect in [appraisal], but if it was an equivalent effect, it would be safer for the Hulkas to make it, so honestly, I don't need it.

It's also subtle if I can sell it, and assuming I don't have a magic bag, I would have just left it because it would be luggage.

As for the trap I was wary of, I had never encountered it so far, and I had ended up worried about it.

Toya said, "You don't have any traps from the beginning, do you?" But there seems to be no such thing as a dungeon in this world, 'If it's in a shallow hierarchy, there's no trap', so I can't feel safe at all.

I will strain Natsuki, but I will have to proceed with caution in the future.

And the day after that.

We were finally running into something we wanted.

It was a bunch of skeletons that were gathered in a fairly large area.

Four skeleton nights on a skeleton like more than 50. And one skeleton king.

The sword of Skeleton King is accompanied by an international "Hikiki" costly decoration, which seems to be the family heirloom the Viscount is looking for.

Recently, the chances of encountering an undead have completely diminished, but it is as massive an undead as if it were to be dispelled.

"Apparently, fate,"

"Right. Almost like the last one, are you lucky or bad..."

We've been crushing the side roads and so on.

Looking at Yuki's map, there are few places left outside the hall where the intended undead is located.

There are about two different paths, and there is a possibility that there are further paths behind the hall where the undead are located, but I don't feel like I've taken a slightly wasted step.

"Isn't that good? If I thought there might be a chest, I'd end up trying other paths, too?

"What, are you going? Even if there's a chest, maybe it's garbage, right?

"Even with almost zero possibilities, I don't want to miss it. Somehow!"

I don't have to know what it feels like.

I don't think so, but if there's enough left to say 'do it again', it would be easier to do it with some effort.

"I'm not opposed to going to confirm anything else, so focus on what's in front of me for now. Luckily, you don't seem to be coming out of that hall."

"Yes. I don't know why... is it a tactic?

The passage extending from the hall, hidden there to see how things are going, but more likely from the other side than from us.

Besides, we are illuminated by the Light, so it should be quite noticeable.

Still not coming out of the aisle and attacking me, is that because you think you're going to be at a better disadvantage?

If we do take into account the difference in number of people, it would be advantageous to wait in the hall if normal......

Yeah, if it's normal.
