Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

"Well, we need to find somewhere to calm down... nuts, upstream or downstream, which way do you think we should head?

"That's the hard part...... If you want to get closer to where the Hulkas are, it's naturally upstream, but if it's a place to calm down, it's more likely to go downstream."

"River, so..."

Generally the river flows slower the further downstream, the rock turns to stone, the sand.

If you think of your body as a place to rest, there's a point in Natsuki's saying, 'It's better to head downstream'.

"Besides, if you head upstream, there's going to be a cliff cut off like this, and if the cannon water comes through, it's dangerous, right? I can't say there's no such thing as a trap."

"... yeah, don't die on that. Even though it's quite the rapids."

I heard it before when I went to a famous tourist destination in the valley, but when it rains heavily in that valley, there will be more than ten meters of water congee and the deep valley will sink beneath the water?

And as the story goes, there was a solid trace of water increase in a position that looked up from the bottom.

That's all the water the valley collects.

Even if it just rained somewhat considering that, it would easily submerge rocks like we are now.

Swimming in such a river is an experience I want to avoid.

However, it is unclear whether it will rain in the dungeon.

But even if it doesn't rain, traps can be dangerous enough.

"I also think that the cliff just collapsed was a trap now that I think about it. I couldn't notice..."

"Right. It didn't look like there was a problem..."

Every time, I was checking properly to see if it seemed okay, more than just piling onto the ground and drooling the rope, and the same was true earlier.

There was no such thing as "wrong" in it, nor was it so brittle ground that it collapsed easily.

But in terms of setting a trap, there is no doubt that it was the best point on a rock shelf like 'You can go down there'.

Besides, I was able to get off safely a few times, so I'll loosen my guard.

I hate to think our vigilance was loose, but we're in this situation in real life... Uh-huh.

"... downstream, on your way"

"Yes. If you think which is safer, you will, won't you?"

It's impossible to spend an evening in a place like this so that there can be no tents in the middle of the river.

Me and Natsuki start moving downstream as we fly through the rocks.

I use a little nerve, but not so much difficulty from those of us who are feeling a lot more balanced and bouncing.

And would you have kept traveling for an hour or so?

I heard something bothering me in my slightly high-performance ears.

Somehow, a heavy bass that sounds like a belly.

I've always heard the sound of falling water from the waterfall, but it makes me feel more intense than that, and it also seems to be getting closer and closer.

I don't really want to think about the cause of it, but I can't possibly ignore it either.

"... Hey, Natsuki. I don't know, I hear disturbing noises, but is it my fault?

"That's an odd encounter. I've been worried about my feet since earlier, too. Subtly, aren't you getting more water?

"I knew it, you think?

A rock that is a stepping stone.

In the beginning, there was plenty of room for the two of us to stand, but I think the spacing between the little things, and the rocks, has grown.

This means that there are fewer rocks that feel good, not submerged, after all.

"Natsuki, for once, keep each other roped together? I don't know if this is the right answer."

"It's better than haggling, let's think. Keep the rope as short as you can."

When it is flushed, there is a risk of saying that if the rope is long, it will become tangled in the neck, and if it is caught in a strange place, it will not be able to float to the surface of the water, and it can even be thought of as drowning.

Or so it's dangerous to get one person off the hook.

Me and Natsuki, when we stop on a slightly wider rock, take the rope off and tie each other...

"-! Nao-kun! Hurry!!"

"Whew!?"

If you follow Natsuki's gaze, what was there was a wall of water.

I tried to push the water smoke away and it was imminent.

"Shit, shit!

With some leeway, I wasn't in a situation where I could say anything.

When I rush over and hold the nuts, I pull me and the nuts' torso together and turn the glue and the rope.

And when I tied it together with all my strength, Natsuki leaked his breath, "Gu," but it's not a situation where I can say that.

"Coming!

"" Isolation Field "!

All I could do was use the slightly healed magic and cast magic that seemed to help me somehow.

Of course, I don't expect to stop the turbulence with that.

I'd like a slight chance of survival, that's all.

Immediately after the magic activated to generate a spherical barrier, we were smacked to the surface to be bounced away, and moments later we were swallowed up by massive amounts of water.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Buha! Gee ho, eh ho!... Phew, Phew. Na, Natsuki, are you okay?

"Yes. something. coho, coho...!

The turbulence that pushed us away flowed down the river all at once.

Flirted by the flow, my 'quarantine area' ran into rocks in the water and left and right rock walls with guns, and my spirit and magic were galloping and shredded.

But should I say that I was fortunate that the water flow was fast, the water volume was back to normal in a relatively short time.

But still, it doesn't make a difference that the river flows pretty fast.

I worked pretty hard to be critical, too, lifting the barrier before I felt ill with too much magic.

He continued to be flushed into the water as he cuddled with Natsuki, eventually losing his left and right rock walls, where he could see the sandy shoreline, and had succeeded in crawling up from the river, perhaps even in teasing.

"Ah, disgusting"

"Good luck. But thanks to Nao-kun's magic, you didn't have to get hurt."

"Oh, my God."

"Dry your clothes."

It was me who got pretty glocky about being rocked by the current and the double punch of magic consumption, but with the magic of the nuts I recovered somewhat, stood up with my hands on my knees and looked around.

"Forest...? Now that I'm in the dungeon, I'm not going to say anything..."

"Yes. Looks like it's flowing from there."

If you look upstream of the river, you can see a giant rocky mountain soaring up and a rift as if it had swung down a wax there.

What we've been flushed is the river that's flowing out of that rift.

Visually, we can see that there is quite a distance.

"... well, are you happy to be alive now"

"Right. Honestly, without Nao-kun's" Isolation Field, "I think it would have been pretty dangerous."

"Again, the magic is empty."

I felt like I had been flushed down the river for quite a while physically, but I would have just said a few minutes at most if I thought calmly.

It consumes a great deal of magic to activate the 'quarantine area', which is originally used in place fixation, all around it, based on one's location, and to keep that state even though it is flowing into the river.

High is known for the amount of time that can be activated by magic recovered in about an hour.

"First, let's find a place where we can camp. I think there's a lot at stake by the river. or so, going into the woods too, that makes me anxious...... what do you say?

"There's nothing nearby that would react to [the enemy]. Except animals, etc."

Some animals can come under attack, but they are basically harmless.

Whatever it was a year ago, it's not so much a threat now.

Of course, it's "if it's an animal we know," and it's not that it's unnecessary to deal with them because it's dangerous if they attack you in your sleep.

"So it's the woods, huh? Find the right place to camp."

I snorted at Natsuki's words, too, leaving the riverbank into the woods.

It was a very ordinary forest at first glance - it felt similar to the upstream forest of Sarlstadt if we were to compare it to the one we normally go into.

Most of all, I'm not very familiar with forest vegetation, so I don't know how it actually feels.

"I just want to get some rest early...... good around here?

"Right. I don't know if it's safe. It's my first place."

We can clearly avoid dangerous places like the banks of rivers and cliffs, but we don't know what kind of enemies we'll have in the first place.

I was just walking around all the time, just getting tired.

When we partitioned somewhat, the roots of slightly larger trees were defined as campsites.

So when we set the fire, we took out one of the folding beds and the two of us lowered our hips there.

"Huh."

"Phew..."

When we looked at each other, we loosened our cheeks a little.

"You're just tired...?

"Right. Falling off a cliff and being flushed down a river..."

"If you think you're safe up there, they'll flush you again, so be it."

Yeah, it was a good and safe thing.

Now, then, but to this hierarchy, maybe we should have worked out a little more before we came.

Depending on the way you look at it, you live without any major injuries at the moment, so it's also possible that you're not so far off the proper level... Uh-huh.

If we're only going to a place where it's easy to fight, I can think of no growth as an adventurer.

"Nao-kun. Dine today and rest early. It's good for what you can do, isn't it?

"Oh, sure. I just want something warm. I was supposed to swim twice today."

"Right. I'm the same with that. Let's make it pork juice."

By pork juice, I mean bore meat, not pigs, but that's not the problem.

If you warm your body with hot juices full of vegetables and meat and fill your stomach with rice balls, the nerves that were tingling will also rest a little.

Rice for pork juice.

And a warm meal is still important.

"So, Nao-kun, go to sleep first. I'll be on my guard."

"Is that good?

"Magic, because I need you to recover. I wish I had magic that would transfer magic."

"Oh, I can't help that..."

Light magic has magic that assists recovery, like "Mental Recovery", but there is no magic that directly transfers magic.

There are potions that restore magic, but this one is here, and at the level that we can get and make today, we don't even say water on the burning stone - but it's a little ineffective.

At least there's not enough healing at all to use magic that consumes tons of magic like metastatic magic.

"Well, Natsuki, I asked for it."

"Yes, leave it to me"

I lay a duvet, a blanket, a duvet on the bunk, and I dive into it.

In our camp, this is the standard style these days.

The atmosphere is smashed, but comfort takes precedence over it.

I dare not turn it into a sleeping bag.

In case you can't jump up, it's a sleeping bag.

In that regard, futons allow you to jump and respond immediately.

The difficulty is getting dirty, but we have 'purification', so there's no problem.

Goodnight, then.

"Yes, get some rest." Mental Recovery ""

To Natsuki, who smiled and enchanted me, I said "thank you" and closed my eyes.
