It felt like everything was gone.

In the meantime, Lena is packing up all the money on the old crates and wooden bowls.

“You're diligent.”

“You just reach out and you can pick it up, but it's too bad if you leave it alone, right? ”

Shorts.

Lena gave me her pouch. Among the money I found in the dungeons, there were fairy tales, but there were also quite a few silver coins. It's a little rusty, but the value remains intact.

[41 Loti 74 widget acquired!]

There was a spear in the air when I was paid.

‘Fair enough. ’

This is enough money to buy me an armor I'm wearing.

I returned the pouch to Lena.

As she collects the money, she tugs on the chain hanging in the passageway.

Heave-ho, heave-ho!

The sound of the chain rings the dungeon. There is no response either.

The chains to alert the intruders are rattling around, but nothing appears in the dungeon.

Light!

You strike the wall with your shield. The echo echoes to the other side.

I've done this, but there's no sound inside.

You take a few more steps and start the commotion again. Good work. You're ruined.

“Wait a minute. ”

Lena checks the map again.

We stood in the middle of a domed void.

It was five times wider than the hall at the Ossuary. Three times the ceiling is supported by massive masonry columns.

“Look up. It's all empty. ”

Lena points up with her hand.

“Mmmm.

There are dozens of empty cages hanging there. Black rusted iron cage. When a human hunches over, it seems to be tight.

I looked closely.

Three shackles were mounted at each height. Up one, in the middle two, down two.

“Here.”

Lena looks around and says,

“It used to be a place where dozens of skeletons and Spectre screamed.

Bang!

I hit the ground with my shield.

“There's no need to be so careful. ”

No response.

“Is this the end? ”

Lena nods.

“Yes, we've come to the depths. How could you do this in ten days? ”

“Ten days? ”

“This dungeon information was updated at that time. I purposely kept it up to date. ”

“Did adventurers come in? ”

Lena shakes her head.

“You know what? This isn't some kind of subjugation. Like.

I waited to join the horses.

“The residents inside, I think they've all moved somewhere.

It won't be so easy to disappear so neatly. ”

Isara.

Actually, there is a horse that looks closer than that. It's a harvest.

Grade E dungeon, all the bones were harvested by the Dry Underground Cemetery.

It looks like a dungeon core. It looks like a skeleton. "I can't imagine what happened. Would I have known if I had come a little earlier? ”

“Maybe you got caught up in it. Let's go up first.”

Lena and I slowly walk out of the dungeon. She sighs a little as she looks around.

“It's quite spacious, considering.

Empty dungeons are good. It's all tiled. ”

The uninhabited dungeon seemed like a cool architecture.

“I could live here. It's spacious and nice. Can't we have it? ”

I sneered and laughed.

The dungeon, full of skeletons, is empty. Now there's a good chance that this will be a Bandit's Lair.

If it has strategic value, the Regular Army will manage it, but if it doesn't, it will be a dangerous lair for outlaws.

“I'm going to another dungeon. ”

Lena ponders for a moment and says,

“Next up is a Class D dungeon. Would that be a little awkward? ”

“What dungeon is this? ”

“It's a dungeon for medium-sized spiders. It has the name of a warped bolt. ”

When I thought about how medium-sized, she said.

“These spiders are about a meter tall.

It's toxic, flame-retardant. ”

Tuk-tuk.

Lena looks up at the backpack.

“You're going to have to pack a whole bunch of empty bottles here. We'll have to make a fire bottle in front of the dungeon. ”

“Hey, there's already something in there. ”

“I know, but I don't carry around a whole bunch of oil and empty bottles. ”

“Sure."

I thought stopping by the city was annoying. But I think it's better to listen to Lena.

“Are you going to hunt some humans on your way? ”

“Well.

I thought about it for a moment and then shook my head.

I didn't want to mess around here.

‘Humans in blue armor. ’

I remembered him. Actually, he showed up a month later anyway. I have no idea where he is now.

But this was an emotional problem.

The sensation of separating me into armor as the white sword slowly descended, was cool even now.

“Come quietly. ”

“A path without humans? Then this way.”

Lena points to the overlapping contour. When I saw the spot, I had a quick thought.

You were on your way there the first time, right? ’

This is the alpine route you chose to take to Grasmear when you first survived your first night with Rubia.

And we met the Trolls.

The Snow Troll bites five hunters in an instant and breaks apart the skull nearby.

Dallac!

You shake your head once, and then look at Lena and ask.

“Has there been any talk of Trolls appearing here? ”

“I didn't recognize it that far. Trolls have such a wide range of activities that it's hard to know when and where they'll appear. ”

“Just go where the humans are. ”

“Then you'd better get through this city. ”

Lena points to a point.

Exactly.

I accidentally bumped into it. Lena glanced at me and said,

“It's a city called Eublam. ”

Seasons have changed, and women walking together have changed.

Instead of the sound of snow, the leaves stomped on your feet thump.

Lena leads the way. Immediately, she sees a familiar gray wall through the maze.

“Here we are. ”

It's Eublam. Rubia can't walk out of that city. I was thrown out like garbage on a cart.

Dallac.

“What's the matter? ”

Lena looks back. The brows are slightly narrower.

I tried not to, but I couldn't. She cared about me for two days.

“You seem to have a bad memory, won't you tell me? ”

It's ridiculous to tell the truth.

She's reliable. I like it a lot. But Rubia's memories are Rubia's. I didn't want to share it with the batsman.

“Let's go.”

We walk down the mountain path, making a sound of Bashrack. The wide open wheat field was bitten. Farmers with large sickles were coming through the golden glow.

“The autumn walk is in full swing. It'll all be over in a week. ”

I walked through the wheat fields, looking both ways. Look forward. The gray walls are quite high. You see a spire and a watchtower.

The city that sent Rubia alone. Regret is already too late, but this time we must go in together.

Shorts.

Lena pulls a few silver coins out of her pocket and holds them in her hand. I see two guards on the inside of the bridge.

“Hey, stop! ”

The guard shouts in front of the bridge.

They have a very lazy working attitude. But when he saw us coming, he saw us a little nervous.

‘It's because of me. ’

Wearing full plate armor, he holds a large double-handed sword.

If someone in this outfit comes to the gate, you have no choice but to yawn and wake up.

‘Maybe they won't let me in. ’

I feel a rush of energy in my hand.

I suppressed not to pull it out by mistake.

I don't intend to fight here.

It's meaningless, and I'm not that reckless. I don't know what happens when I die.

The guard looks this way and gestures.

“Hey, come across the girl first. ”

Lena crosses the bridge. The guard said.

“Who are you? And what about that armor knight? ”

“He's my husband. ”

I silenced myself as I listened to the conversation from afar.

Lena stabs something into the guard's pocket. It was the same for both guards. There was a small creak.

The guards cough a few times.

“Home, I see you're an ordinary traveler.

Don't make a fuss in there. ”

Another guard gets up next to you, dozing off.

“Be careful. Our commander could have his head blown off right there. The guards in this city are very scary. We can't think of anywhere else. ”

After a few small talks, a large gate opens.

Bait.

We went inside the gate.

“Who's your husband? ”

“Then what is it? You're her husband, right?”

“What?"

I just shrugged my shoulders because I was ridiculous.

“He's nothing. Do me a favor. ”

Huff.

You shake your head with your helmet.

“I decline.”

Lena pretended not to hear. I walked forward and held my hand.

“I got my hands on it. You're my husband now. Right?"

I didn't let it go. Somehow my arm doesn't feel strong.

I just walked side-by-side, leaving it alone. In a dark place in my heart, the water seemed to flow gradually.

“It's autumn. ”

Lena leans in toward me. I slipped away because I thought it was a joke, but Lena grabbed me. I whispered close to my head.

“I smell opium in the streets. ”

“”? Is that so? ”

My sense of smell is not as sensitive as that of a human. Lena nods at you.

“Sweet smells everywhere.

I'm a little sensitive to the smell. The guards had their eyes open, too. Here you go.

I'm sure you'll see. ”

“You're addicted to opium? The whole city?”

“Shh. Someone's watching.

We're outsiders, so be careful. ”

Lena's voice lowers.

I remembered the innkeeper who was addicted to opium.

He was completely broken. I couldn't make any good decisions, and the mood swings were morbidly abrupt.

Because of the torture, I thought I'd cut the opium to forget the pain.

But...

Maybe he was addicted from the start.

I said in a low voice.

“Those two guys at the front door looked pretty good. ”

“It's the difference in quantity. If you take or smoke the prescribed amount, you can live. Just forget the fact that you're addicted. Those guys, they were dreamy, weren't they? ”

“I see.”

“An early symptom. ”

I looked at the people walking along the street. There are no big blemishes.

After hearing Lena's words, everyone seemed to be an addict.

Thump! Thump! Boom, boom! Bang, bang!

You hear hammering.

There's a forge on the side of the road by the gate. I looked at the armor listed in front of the forge. There were armor that looked similar to what I was wearing.

“You see the armor? ”

“Never mind. I'm not buying it. ”

It already exists. It was made by the same blacksmith.

I took a step because I was bitter.

An old man from the alley, left with nothing but bones. The old man took us for granted once.

Then I stroked the white beard with my hands and went back into the alley.

“Are you an addict?”

Lena tilts her head.

“That's what it looks like. It smells like opium.

But his eyes were quite clear.

I'm not sure. ”

“Why are you looking at us? ”

“I don't know.

You follow the cobblestone streets in an orderly fashion.

On either side of the road are a line of wooden buildings. The roof was thin and black.

It's blue or red. Lena stops in front of a three-story building.

“This is it.”

“The only inn, right? ”

“That's right."

This is the inn where Rubia stayed. My heart felt like it was going down cold.

This is the first inn I've bought armor from. If you look at the pathway, it's perfect.

The city where she died. The inn where she stayed. I felt like I was plunging into the midst of an enemy.

Peek-a-book.

Lena leads the way and opens the door.
