Episode 36: The Value of Corpse Ghosts and Giveaways

"... You've been cursed by something here lately, don't keep running into weird things?

After returning from the labyrinth, it was Lorraine, the lord of the house, who said so with a face that had spooked me, describing all the things that were there.

"It's not like I like, like, do..."

Once I put it that way, when I thought about it, I proceeded with joy ahead of the untouched area of the Labyrinth where Dragon appeared.

No matter how many signs I say I can't feel anymore, it doesn't sound like a ghoul if they say it would be like I liked to jump into danger.

"Well, I guess... in the first place, it's like the adventurer himself going to see something strange. I don't know what else to say now...... so, that was this magic trick. You don't seem to have a problem."

With that said, what Lorraine is looking at is the magic prop "Map of Acacia" that that gray-haired woman gave me.

I mean, it's an excellent thing that it auto-maps the labyrinth, but it turns out it's just me who's been cursed lately for wearing tools in the breadth.

I wanted to be very careful about what people gave me, so Lorraine was just checking to see if there was anything strange about it.

I can make that distinction somehow, too, but sometimes it's like a special curse like the mask I'm wearing.

Detailed investigation is difficult for me.

In that regard, Lorraine's knowledge and experience as a scholar allows her to appraise on many items.

From what I hear, he also qualifies as an appraiser of the Adventurers' Union (Alliance).

It should be a difficult qualification to get a job just because I have it, but I think I envy you saying that you are not smart because you took it in one hassle.

"... by the way, exciting, gripping, you know?

They gave it to me, but the instructions on how to use it were magical enough for now, so I'm suspicious about how to use it more than that.

In this regard, Lorraine:

"I've looked into it, but you don't seem to be able to do it alone. I'm saying if you pass the magic, you'll get a map, but it doesn't seem to work with my magic... you, try it"

That's what I said and they handed me the map, so I did what they told me, and I would draw it on parchment paper with nothing on the map of the Labyrinth of the Water Moon displayed at that time.

"Hmm, that's great, this is... hmm, this point...?

If you look closely, you could see a number of black dots moving around on the map.

I wondered what it was, and when I touched it, the name appeared under the dot.

"This is..."

"Oh, probably the name of someone diving into this labyrinth right now. I didn't even know that... terrible technology. It's a national treasure class."

That's what Lorraine says with admiration.

In fact, I've never seen anything like this, and I've apparently made a very good deal.

Well, instead, if I made a mistake, they would have killed me, so I might end up in a place called Tonton.

Then I messed around with things and tried them, and found that it was possible to switch the display by passing magic and remembering things differently.

For example, from the map of the Labyrinth of the Water Moon, if you want to change it to another map, it will change.

I also found out that it's a human display feature walking inside the labyrinth, but this apparently wouldn't work unless I had fully mapped that labyrinth.

I'm totally mapping out about The Labyrinth of the Water Moon, but little about The Labyrinth of the New Moon.

So, when I tried to show you a map of the Labyrinth of the Crescent Moon, the part where I had walked was displayed, but there was no such thing as a point indicating a walking human being.

I've been watching it for a while but still haven't walked one person, which is unlikely in this time frame, so I came to the conclusion that it probably hasn't been displayed.

So, considering why, maybe it's because there's not enough mapping.

Perhaps there are other possibilities, but that seems to be the most likely conjecture from the fact that it appears for hierarchies that have already been mapped.

I'm pretty sure it's convenient, but there are limitations, so I figured it out.

Then we'll talk about the robe we got.

"Here too, what's the curse?

"You don't seem to... you won't have a problem wearing it with confidence. Sounds like something nice in there."

"Really?

He said it was a lot easier for me.

"Ah. Sounds very magically resistant, and the blade doesn't go through. Well, I don't know what happens if you're a good swordsman or a weapon from an industry, but you can assume you're more defensive than normal armor."

I think that's the good stuff I got again.

I was disappointed that I found the untouched area at first and explored it to the back, but ended up not getting any of the results I could report to the Adventurers Union (Guild), but given what was to come, I might have gotten a handy map and sturdy protective gear, which was more of a plus.

When it comes to untouched areas in the first place, it is the Labyrinth of the Water Moon, which only goes as far as bronze adventurers.

Even though it could have been a reward there, it wouldn't have been enough to spare that much in the sense of merit.

All right, this exploration is a plus on the balance of payments.

I decided to think so.

The demonic stones obtained by fighting demons on the road are also well brought except those of the bone giant (Giant Skeleton) and warm to nostalgia for sale by Lorraine.

Paying Crope the other half of his weapon bill didn't seem to mean he was going to be destitute.

"... well, at the end of the day, we're talking about the woman you ran into... you still don't know anything. Personally, I am concerned about the technology that allows me to create residential facilities in the labyrinth..."

As for this, so am I.

He just appeared abruptly and was kicked out with almost no explanation.

That's not a good guess of me enough to know who she is.

I'm only sure he was a tremendous user, but that would be about the number of stars, such as those who outnumber me now.

You might manage to fight it up to about the lower silver ranks, but when more than that comes out, it gets pretty tough, and if you're golden, you're likely to be killed instantly.

My strength is something like that.

Of course, I'm not going to stay like this forever.

You're going to be stronger and stronger, I am.

Because now I have the flesh that I need to grow.

... although it is possible that no matter how hard you try, you are a demon.

"I'm going to go back to that Meikyu noodle."

"Even though they kicked you out? You're so brave."

"I wasn't told not to come to the basket. They just said," Don't mess around. "

Lorraine thought a little about my words.

"... Well, to remind you of the story, yeah. But it would be a trick. You obviously don't want me to come."

I guess Lorraine is right about this.

But I'm curious.

Again, there was a faint hope that you wouldn't listen to me.

Well, if you can't, you can't.

Sometimes, that's all.

That said, Lorraine,

"... it's about being careful. To listen to you, that woman is not normal. I don't know what bothers me."

"Ah."

I snort at Lorraine.

That's what I know best, actually, relative.

Now he won't be killed all of a sudden, but he definitely had to pay close attention.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

But the next day, when I turned to the labyrinth, it ended up in vain.

Because it was there until yesterday, the passage that serves as the entrance to the untouched area.

That's because today it was completely extinguished.

Wall no matter where you look from.

That is all.

I only touch cold walls when I touch them.

Now that woman's clue is completely interrupted.

I wonder who the hell it was.

Though I think so from the bottom of my heart, no one gives me that answer.

Will there be a day when I will see you again?

With that feeling in my chest, I had no choice but to leave the labyrinth behind.
