(061) The simple hike down the mountain

Translator: Tseirp

When I came to, I had returned to the deepest part of the labyrinth, the room with the Goddess statue.

Well, I’m relieved to hear that Miri is healthy and even though we didn’t get the skills and items we aimed for, it’s better than getting scourers.

“Ichino-sama, I’ve acquired the 「Decipher」 skill. The applications are limited but it is a rare skill.”

“It looks like I’ve obtained a magic bow. It’s a very good bow. I’ve not used a bow since I was a child so I’m worried if my skill has dulled.”

Carol with a smile and Haru with her tail wagging reported their respective results.

Now that I think about it, Haru also possessed the Bow Equip skill.

It seems like the outcome wasn’t as bad.

“It was Lifestyle magic for me. Lifestyle magic was raised to level II.”

“Lifestyle magic level increased huh? Ichino-sama’s luck sure is good.”

“It’s a lucky thing?”

“Lifestyle magic has a 1 in a 100 probability of acquiring during the first time. It is handy because it has a lot of convenient magic.”

Carol explained to me.

Certainly, in a world without vacuum cleaners and washing machines, purification is the best and greatest magic.

“Magic list open”

I took a look at what magic I’ve learned.

Petit Ice, Petit Dark, and Petit Light were likely to be magic learnt from Ice magic, Darkness magic, and Light magic.

Then, there was 1 more. A magic that has been added.

“Silent … room?”

If it’s called silent move then I can understand. Stealthy footsteps — it would be a magic that removes the sound of footsteps.

However. It’s room instead of move. Silent room?

“Silent room is — that’s right. It would be quicker to understand if you try using it. Since it’s not a dangerous magic and the MP expenditure is low.”

“Yup, alright.”

Listening to Carol’s explanation, I decided to actually attempt to use it.

“Silent room.”

Once I chanted that, a rectangular thin light film spread out. Almost as if it is a light room.

The light film expanded according to my thoughts, it widened when I willed it to and shrunk when I thought to make it narrower.

However, the width had a limit and could not widen beyond a certain width and the room is apparently set to widen with me as the center.

“What kind of effect does this have?”

I asked Carol.

But, she didn’t reply. Furthermore, it somehow felt like the sound reverberated.

Looking at Carol, Carol’s mouth was opening *paku paku* and it seemed like she was saying something.

Then, Haru passed through the light film and entered.

So it can be easily slipped through huh?

“Master, did you hear the words Carol said?”

“Eh? Carol was only opening and closing her mouth — ah, so it has that kind of effect.”

In other words, if I’m in this room, I won’t be able to hear the sounds from outside.

“Carol, raise your right hand if you can hear this.”

I tried shouting.

However, Carol merely looked like she was saying something but she didn’t raise her right hand.

It seems like the sounds from within doesn’t leak out to the outside either.

So to speak, this light film is the strongest soundproof wall.

By willing the light film to disappear, the light film disappeared as if dissolving into the air.

“Have Ichino-sama understood the effect of Silent Room?”

I could hear Carol’s voice now.

I knew it very well.

It’s a magic that can be used when the neighbouring room complains that it is too noisy and they can’t sleep.

“Yeah. But, I feel that it is kind of plain compared to Clean.”

“That’s right. However, the range widens once proficiency increases. If you raise it until Lv 5, it would be capable of encasing large theatres so theatre officials would give you work. Apparently, there’s a town that rose up due to a single Silent Room.”
