Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

A large white door was opened to the left and right, holding a tight silence.

The back of the revealed door - the front, to be precise - is carved with the same intricate and complex pattern of countless crabs as the other doors, as I expected.

"I didn't expect it to open so lightly....."

Astra, who stood up stunned, said without strength.

His friends in the Silver Wings slapped him on the shoulder and comforted him.

Anyway, did you open it safely and go deep?

The opening of the door, the original purpose, was achieved.

But the crab's onslaught here is depleting everyone.

We may retreat once and try again.

"I've come this far, so naturally!Look, my arms are stuck together. "

Letty broke the bandage on her left shoulder and threw it away.

The skin underneath is a thousand pieces of metal underneath is exposed, but the operation seems smooth and problem-free.

"I want to go deep, too.Thanks to the tent, the LP is fully recovered. "

"Same as right"

Lacto and Amy continued, and Toka and Mikage nodded.

Tart and Luna also said they were very inflamed, and there were no other options for retreat here.

So, do you want to proceed? I don't know what's going on, so be careful. "

"I'll take the lead."

Astra is restoring her mind, and Ash is coming forward.

Along the way, he was hiding while protecting Lisa, and he was relatively less worn out and qualified as a repellent because he was an agile light warrior.

"... I'll follow you."

Raise your hand from the White Deer Monastery.

Mikage is also a reproach that can be relied upon, and if the field of gathering information in the darkness is one that is more suitable than ninjas.

"This is an unconfirmed area.Watch out for each other, carefully. "

"Leave it to me. I'm still the leader of the squad."

With Astra's words shaken away, Ash disappears behind the door with the lizard.

Unnaturally, their backs melted in the darkness, and there was a period of silence.

Ash, can you hear me?

Little by little, Ash's voice flows over the shared line.

Astra stood up and responded.

"I hear you. How are you?"

Big hallways are going on forever.The gate and the white stone.It's about 20 meters wide and twice as tall... well, it's the size of a gate.

No protozoa have been found.The lizard has a net, but there's no response either. "

Everyone listens to the detailed information from Ash and reproduces the inside in the brain.

From the slightly sloppy voice of Ash, it seems that there is no particular danger in the corridor leading to the back of the door.

Are there any traps or interceptors?

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

"No, the floor and walls are seamless stones, and they're jammed with sound.In the first place... I'm not hostile. "

In Ash's abstract words, we face each other.

"Shall we go ahead and join the two of us?"

"If they decide it's not dangerous, they'll be fine.If they made a mistake, we'd better put together some extra power. "

Speak briefly and we will all step into the back of the door.

Lights line up at equal intervals, although they are a little unreliable when passing through dark darkness.

The blue jewel light that was in the passage connecting the sandy beach with the fog forest.It is embedded in the same pure white stone wall as the gate and illuminates the surroundings blurrily.

"There you are."

After a while, Ash and Mikage waited against the wall.

Successfully rendezvous with them and I will observe the surroundings again.

"It's strangely quiet.I don't see anything. "

"I can't hear anything but Letty."

Letty, standing next to her, moves her long ears to the left and right.

If she is deaf, she is sure.

"I certainly don't feel hostile."

Astra says with a mysterious face, without being alert.

Luna looks at him with her lips bent.

"Is hostility something you can feel?"

"It's a real game.It looks like you can actually pick up a slight smell or sound outside your perception range.I'm unconsciously feeling these things and discerning them as something of a sixth sense. "

Well, these people, they looked like this.

Astra, Ash and Mikage nodding to it.

Is it common sense for the top?

After all, Astra suddenly turned to me thinking that the talented person was somewhere out of common sense.

"Perhaps the sixth strongest feeling of all is Reggie."

"What about me?"

Suddenly I was surprised to be named.

I don't remember waking up to such fantastic hypersensitivity, and the headlights on my forehead are not the third eyes.

No, no, I shake my head, but the people around me nod convincingly.

I don't want to be convinced...

"There are a number of reasons why Reggie beat me and Eye... but I think he has a great instinct."

I don't know.

"That's right, Mr. Reggie, you're running the front lines, even though you're not a tight fighter like Letty."

I followed Letty to the other side.

"Reggie, that's a lot of stuff.They respond normally to attacks from blind spots, because Astra started dodging before the last game or attack. "

"Well, if you knew the attack was coming, you'd avoid it."

"That's the judgment.Read the other person's dagger, look at the line of sight, and unconsciously think about how to act.Doesn't Reggie make it natural? "

When Toka told me, I thought it might be so.

Me and Letty seem to be the so-called "fitters," and maybe that's what this is all about.

"No, I'm fine.More than that. "

I noticed that the story was out of line, and I rushed to fix the trajectory.

Why was it suddenly praised in such a place?

"Is that what Reggie's intuition is all about?"

"Too little judgment material."

I kicked Letty in the face.

All we have here is darkness, blue light and white stone.

What the hell am I supposed to do with this?

"Anyway, we have to go deeper.... is it going or is it going back? "

By the way, we're still going backwards.

If there is something waiting behind this, is it protecting what is on our side?

Think about it and look back.

Nh ~

"What's the matter?"

Looking at me roaring, Letty leans her head.

I shake my head with wrinkles between my eyebrows when I think I can't translate.

"Suppose someone guards that door."

Place assumptions while organizing thoughts.

"For him, this side is behind him.And you have to keep your eye on the front.If anything, they're supposed to be protecting us, not the hostiles. "

"What do you mean?"

Lacto hastened it.

"This is quite a large hallway.Doesn't having this much space mean there's only so much there? "

That makes Astra's eyes thinner.

He's not the only one.

The other faces also tightened their expression.

"Let's proceed with caution. Inside is enough to protect the crabs in the cave."

Everyone nods at Astra's words.

Kill the footsteps and move on to the back as you prepare for battle.

Ash and Mikage, who had been walking along the corridor for a while, stopped and raised their hands.

There he is.

Shorten it with a small voice.

Turn off the headlights, and we'll get close to both of you.

"This is...."

The back was connected to a much larger space.

It's roughly a circular, like an arena.

Surrounded by two levels of seating, there is a huge shadow in the center of the stage.

Gradually, the eyes begin to get used to it and the shadows appear clearer.

It's huge.

Letty marvels.

Crouching on my back is a round back that is as small as a hill.

The pure white exterior shell floats in the shadows under a slight blue light.

……

I'll gently take out the camera and get inside.

The "photo appraisal" revealed the name of the enormous existence.

"― Koshua-Iharpartacia, White Shield"

The hill moves because they call me by my name.

A giant crab that had remained silent for a long time awakens.

Focusing on the stranger who came from the place to be protected, he stares at his little shadow.

"Nh! Coming!"

Astra's fierce voice.

Everyone runs without having to listen to it.

I can even tell without feeling the sixth sense.

Dense killing, anger, and passion swept up in waves.
