Chapter 142 (1/2)
The moment I lost my footing and realized that I fell into a pitfall, I grabbed Meru and threw her up.
[Please take care Meru~!!] (Wazu)
I believe that my voice had reached them as I fall down to the bottom of pitfall. The inside of the hole is so wide that I couldn't reach its wall even when I was stretching both my arms and legs. I’m falling down without any resistance.
If I look up..... I can see the hole of pitfall slowly closing along with *gogogo* sound. The inside of hole turned utterly black.
I can feel a floating sense of falling even now. I realized that I'm inside a vast space as I open my eyes.
I can see the hole I was falling down if I’m looking up at the top, other than that, it's wall of stone as far as I can see. It's easy to imagine that this place is underground.
The estimated size of this space is big enough to put the whole castle and its capital above. In some places, there are many huge pillars supporting this underground space.
While I was falling down and confirming the surroundings, the battle sound from below reached my ears.
I managed to twist my body and rearranged my falling posture, there was a woman fighting against something below.
It turns out that I'm already close to the ground rather unexpected. I adjust my posture in a hurry and landed on the floor made of stone.
Large cracks spreads on the stone floor along with a loud landing sound, smoke also rising in the surroundings. Inside that smoke, I'm checking the state of my body.
Well, considering my status, I would be remain intact even if I fell down on my back, so it was really just for peace of my mind.
There were no abnormalities in particular when I was checking my body, but..... would I reach the previous place if I jumped in full power towards the hole I'd fallen?
When I was thinking about such a thing, the smoke cleared up and I was able to see the surrounding.
I can see a woman who had been fighting something until a while ago came closer to me, then calls out to make sure of my safe appearance.
[.........fell down from such height but still standing, are you really a human?]
[How rude! Of course, I'm an ordinary human!] (Wazu)
I'm speaking out my mind while looking at the woman..... but for one reason, she is a beastman.
Golden cat ears and hair that long enough to reach the shoulder, the corner of her eyes that rise gives her a strong-willed facial features, it's not wrong to call her beautiful.
Her chests are big but her waist is slender, I can understand at glance that her body is well-trained.
She wore a light-looking armor that doesn't obstruct the movement, covering the area of breasts, waist, arms, and legs. Under the armor, there is a thin cloth from her chest down to her waist. You also can see a cat-like tail sticking out from behind.
A slavery collar is fitted on her neck and if I take a good look, there seems to be bruises in some places.
[Don't mind it, I'm fine! So, the reason for a human fell into this place, have you been thrown away by your owner, that self-proclaimed king of the world?]
[..........are you perhaps misunderstand something? I'm not one of his slave or something else. I came here by my own volition to help the kidnapped beastmen] (Wazu)
[..........but you fell?]
When she said it bluntly..... it's embarrassing.....
[B-But I came here with a reliable companions. I also brought someone from the beastmen kingdom, Deizu] (Wazu)
[Papa~!?]
Papa? Hmm..... could it be she is.....
[Deizu's daughter-san who was kidnapped.....] (Wazu)
[That's right! I'm Maorin Leonir, the only daughter of Deizu Leonir. More importantly, is it true that Papa is coming?] (Maolin)
The woman who identified herself as Maorin in brag, suddenly grabbed my lapels and asking in a threatening attitude. I'm scared of her beautiful angry face.
[It's true! We are acting separately, he should be rescuing the beastmen in the city now] (Wazu)
[..........is it not a lie?] (Maorin)
[It's really true!!] (Wazu)
After being told that much, she took her hands off me and got motivated about something.
[I see, I see, so papa is coming for me. Then, I can't stay forever in such a place] (Maorin)
[Yeah. Speaking of which, why is Deizu's daughter-san in such a place? What were you doing here?] (Wazu)
[Eh? What was I doing here? I was fighting with those thing!] (Maorin)
Deizu's daughter-san shifted her body to the side a little and said so. Inside my opened field of vision is..... an extremely thick and long arms, though it's standing, its upper body is supported by a lower body that shaped like an inverse triangle, a square thing like a small face is attached on its top, it has a thing like a big round lens.
