268 # 253 Underground of the Marquis Mansion.txt (1/2)

The next day, we eat a leisurely breakfast. Because there's no point in rushing.

When I logged into the game, no one was there. Right~.

Well, I'm going to buy the MP potion and do the purification process... and then Ix tells me something I forgot to do.

'Master, I haven't checked the basement of this house, what should I do?'

I'm pretty sure I only checked the top and not the bottom yet. So we go to check it out.

Going down the spiral staircase leading to the basement. It has a nice atmosphere.

It looks like monsters are going to come out.

Aeon, if you're scared, you can hug Lily.

No, thank you.

Bassa. As we're having this conversation, we arrive at our destination. I'm too dark to see, but I can see Love Fire, Livina, and Wafu are alerted.

''Tact brother...''

This... is not good...

I think they just performed a ritual.

A ritual? When I asked Love Fire and the others to light it, there was a blood magic circle written on it... hey, come on, give me a break.

''Huh...call it in.

So I'm going to report to Princess Sarah. After a while, Mr. Brass brought his men to me.

''I'm sorry...I didn't know what it would be like.

'You made the right decision not to touch anything and to call me over. Now I'm going to check it out.

Please.

I guide Mr. Brass and the others.

''This... is a magic circle I've never seen before... does anyone else know about it?''

'I've never seen it before... although it looks like a summoning magic circle.

It's just like the magic circle the demons use... you know, in here.

We exchange various opinions, but the result is a mystery. So I called the person who seemed to know the most about it. As soon as I called him, he came.

I'm here!　I'm finally free from work~

Mr. Cain appeared in his cat form.

'Isn't this part of your job?'

”I'll be happy to do it without the paperwork!　Now, lead me to the romantic and mysterious magic circle!

That's a lot of tension. But it's true that there's no one you can rely on more than this person.

When I ask Cain-san to take a look at the magic square, he answers immediately.

''This is a meaningless magic circle!

”What?

That's the kind of punchline you've been expecting so far! You're kidding me!

''It's definitely a very old magic square. It's probably before the summoning magic square was completed. The resemblance to the summoning magic square is also evidence of its resemblance to what the demons use.

How did that thing get here?
