Chapter 74 (1/2)
More plot! But don't worry, in two chapters there will be fluffs! (also I said that I will take a break but I just can't resist help)
I guess I will finish this mini arc first and then take a break (or so I said…)
TL: clover
ED: clover
A single path was opened up in the for the forest of coniferous trees
A part of the slope of the ic equipment was installed there
On the surface of the stone laid at the feet of the raved into the transition ic circle
A brass plate about the size of a door was stuck on the wall directly withscrews and nails
On the surface of the brass plate, the same texts as the contract documents that Gilbert borroere inscribed
This see
”Yeah There see the content of the brass plate
When stepped above the transition ical powers e body
The characters on the brass plate started to shi+ne diht of our eyes
Harold picked out a single ic circle
According to the docuic circle should be able to activate with the joint Skeleton Key of Nibelheio?”
We silently nodded
When Harold turned the key, the field of vision seemed to become warped as if to match his movement
However, the effect was instantaneous, and everything was painted white with the intense light co out from our feet
There was a sensation as ifthrill ride plus the coffee cup
Suddenly the disco
The surroundings were pitch black
Was the transition successful?
”Uheeh……this is why I don't like a hurried transition ic circle……
Is everyone here? No way, I'ht?”
That was Gilbert's voice
Considering the direction and distance of his voice, his standing position seemed to coincide with that before the transition
”Wait, Aniki, I will turn on the light!”
Harold's voice caht was iht of the lantern that he had in hand, the appearance of everyone appeared in the darkness
Apparently, it seemed that this place was the mine tunnel
It was the same as the entrance to the mine at the foot of the ic circle
Then, was there a brass plate with the Sorcery Tag here so within the reach of ht
『Hht
Erica, use this Gilbert, you too』
Tirnanog saw the other side of the darkness and see
He turned to me and took out the star crystal lamps and handed it to me and Gilbert
”Thank you, Tir”
”Sorry,a high-quality stone”
Thanks to the three lights, I finally confirht now
What was illuut tunnel
”Haah, what is this……”
”Why are there so many barrels here, Harold……?”
”Aren't they the s metal from ore”
Gilbert and I tilted our heads, and Harold returned his answer as if struck
But after answering, Harold's expression turned cloudy as he racked his brain
”This place……it should be a new ht?”
”Well……that's how it should be
But this, no matter how I look at this place, it's abandoned
I think that this is probably a waste mine somewhere in the Nibelheim territory”
Harold approached the barrels as he said so, and overturned the angular light
He checked the burning stahed deeply
”As I thought This is the sign of a trader who has a deal with o, for the sake of fundraising, my father had undertaken the waste disposal of soement
That is……ah, jeez, why did that person buy this waste himself!”
Harold who see, raised his voice
When he kicked a barrel in front of hihtly slanted tunnel, hit the wall and broke
Harold see the barrel broke down due to his ier
He slowly lowered the fist that he had raised, and crouched down on the spot powerlessly
『Gilbert』
”O-ou,walked to the broken barrel
He seemed to put the barrels scattered around the tunnel and their contents in order
Conceivably, he did it to give Harold space
I stroked Harold's back as crouching while hiding his face
It see his teeth
Still, he was stubborn and full of spirit That was a relief
Even so, I wondered how Earl Nibelheim could have been deceived
Even an amateur could see that this was not a new mine
Rather, as the Earl had a researcher's h investigation in advance
Was there still so in this place?”
Finished clearing the barrels, a voice raised fro around
I also slowly held up the lamp over the wall of the tunnel
”Maybe the contract hasn't established yet?”
”No, Aniki, that's weird
