Chapter 113 (2/2)

The remaining monsters fled the scene after the boss was killed.

”Fufu. Frau and her friends are very strong.”

”Kyui.”

”What do you mean I didn't do anything?  Kaede's credit is also Frau's credit.

”Kyu, kyukyukyukyu!”

”You asked for it, Panda!”

Above my head, Frau and Panda are arguing again.

It's good that they're close, but I'm trying to think right now.

Kaede, Monica and I would strip the monsters of any useful materials.

I then put away all the gathered materials in my magic storage.

”You'd better find a new storage room. This one has little capacity.”

”Really? I think it's quite spacious.”

”If you go to a dungeon, you can find lots of them, almost a thousand of them. They say they have a capacity of up to 10,000 items.”

Really? Is there a magic storage item with that much capacity around here?

I guess there are items here that aren't available on the island.

I would like to go to one of those dungeons at some point.

Going through the old passage, we find a staircase.

But it's completely filled with seawater, and we'll have to swim to continue from here.

”I'm going to change. Wait here a minute.”

”Then I'll be there.”

I change into a bathing suit in a remote spot.

I hear sounds of rustling fabric nearby.

It sounds like Kaede and Frau are changing.

”Have they grown even more?”

”You think so? I didn't notice.”

”You have a beautiful figure, Kaede.”

”Don't just start touching them!”

Glup

Oh, no. I'm getting excited.

I need to calm down before I go back to them.

”We're done.”

”Ah.”

When I came back, I saw the three girls in swimsuits.

And Frau was in her human size.

”By the way, is there any air underneath this?”

”There are a series of air pockets. If you go through them, you can easily get to the bottom.”

They say that several hidden rooms have been discovered here in the past.

Various relics have been found in the hidden rooms and adventurers have earned a lot of money.

These ruins, they still intrigue me.

I pull out my underwater breathing scroll.

”Use this everyone.”

The effect of underwater breathing lasts for several hours.

While the effect lasts, you can literally breathe underwater.

After activating the scroll, I got into the water and called out Sharkboy.

”Glup glup♪”

Sharkboy rubbed his body against me.

I guess he thought he wouldn't be called for a while now that we were on land.

He seemed to be happy.

Kaede used her magic to create an orb of light.

Wow, it's full of debris.

And I see lots of fish. It might be connected to the sea somewhere.

”Buha!”

I come out of the water.

Kaede and the others came out seconds later.

”There was nothing to find, was there?”

”I don't know, we haven't checked the whole place yet. Or maybe someone came before us.”

”Do you think there's any treasure down there?”

Frau is looking at the closed door.

Is it possible that this is the locked door they say is at the end?

Monica tried to push the door, but it was still locked and could not be opened.

”If I had a key, I could get in. Too bad.”

”Let me try.”

”It's no use. No one has ever been able to open that door.”

I pulled out a wire, and inserted it into the keyhole of the door and opened it in a second.

what we heard was the creaking sound.

”How is that possible!? You opened it with a simple wire!”

Monica was so astonished that she recoiled.

With my super universal key, I can handle this.

Now, let's take a look at the relics behind this door.

I pushed the door with both hands.

”...Is this it?”

There was a small base inside the place.

A blue jewel glittered on it.

Wait, I've seen this jewel somewhere before.

I think it was at an auction.

”Master, it's a life extension jewel!”

That's right, it was the same jewel that sold for 850 million.

It's a rare item that can save you from death only once.

It's not as precious as the elixir, but it's still valuable enough for anyone to want it.

”It's mine! I'm not giving it to anyone!”

Monica suddenly grabs a jewel and tries to escape.

However, Frau, who moved quickly, grabbed it.

”What are you doing, that belongs to my Lord! Give it back!”

”Please, please give it to me!”

”Screw you, you big-titted elf!”

”Don't touch my breasts! Don't rub them like that!”

Given the bizarre situation, I decided to ask Monica what was going on.
