Chapter 318: Don't Worry About Things You Can't Understand If They're Harmless

“We’ve arrived; this is the place.”

“Oh, this is quite something…”

I would get the targeted magical tool… That was my proposition, but they responded with conditional agreement. That is to say, “We will also go together and witness its acquisition.”

Perhaps they were thinking, “We can’t trust someone we just met and end up grabbing a fake,” but that suited us too. After all, we were planning to join the hero party with this accomplishment, so honestly, it was like we were being prepaid.

Thus, we arrived at a massive triangular stone structure after walking through the desert. A gaping black hole was open in the middle of the towering building, but there was no sign of people around.

“What an incredible ruin. But despite being such an impressive ruin, there’s no one else exploring here?”

“Yeah, that’s because… It doesn’t pay. There are just too many traps, and the monsters that come out are all undead and don’t make any money. The core is alive, so the treasure chests regenerate, but most of the contents are just random junk…”

“……? I understand that there are many traps, but can’t they be disabled? And the treasure chests regenerate?”

“Ah, no, no! That’s probably why no one comes. Anyway, for now, can you guys go ahead to the sealed door? We can fight as well.”

“Yes, that’s fine! It’s our third time, after all!”

I cut off Tia’s words, speaking hurriedly with a loud voice, and Nico nodded with a smile. As we all headed towards the ruins, I took Tia’s hand, and she quickly initiated [Missing Talk] between us.

[Hey Ed, what was that?]

[Ah, that’s… In this world, there are ‘dungeons’ different from underground labyrinths, with ever-burning torches attached to walls at regular intervals, and ruins where traps and treasure chests regenerate. I don’t know how it works, but that’s what it is.]

[Eh… It’s a pretty mysterious world, isn’t it? Oh, is it the same as when a treasure chest was suddenly placed in Gou-san’s world?]

[Umm, I don’t know how the other world’s mechanism works, so I can’t say for sure, but if you can accept that, it’s fine, right? By the way, dungeons have something called a core, and if it breaks, it turns back into ordinary ruins. And usually, valuable magical tools are inside the core…]

[So, that’s what Nico and the others are aiming for, understood.]

“Hey, we’re about to go inside! Don’t let your guard down just because we’re going ahead!”

“Oops, sorry. I’m fine.”

I finished explaining to Tia and was called by Kanan. We released each other’s hands and began to be on the lookout. Kanan raised an eyebrow, and Nico looked at us with widened eyes.

“Um, are you two perhaps much stronger than you look?”

“Oh, you can tell?”

“Yes, well. I’m still a hero after all.”

“People may say we’re not old enough to comment, but at your age, accomplishing so much, who are you people?”

“Well, it’s true. Just being a young man and an elven woman in a two-person party is already quite noticeable, and if you’re skilled on top of that, it wouldn’t be surprising if there were rumors…”

“Hahaha, those who stand out… stand out because they’re doing well. If we don’t boast unnecessarily about our accomplishments, our names won’t be known unless we save a town from a monster horde or something. Especially in our case, we were quite careful about that. You see, because of how Tia is.”

“What? Is there something wrong with me?”

Tia brought her face close to mine, looking annoyed, but I pushed her away.

“That’s what I mean! Tia becomes popular wherever she goes, so she makes sure I don’t feel lonely.”

“Oh, really? Hehe, if you’re that lonely, shall I pat your head?”

“Be quiet.”

I swatted away Tia’s grinning hand, and the previous three nodded in understanding, each voicing their thoughts.

“A pathetic man’s possessiveness… how shameful.”

“Oh, really? I think it’s a beautiful form of love…”

“Adventurers who secretly tackle tough requests! Awesome! Cool!”

“Do whatever you like… But don’t you guys be too careless either, okay? Traps and monsters are everywhere, right?”

“That’s fine! Let’s go… [Trap Detection Detect Trap]!”

Nico struck the floor with his sheathed sword, and ripples of light spread out, faintly illuminating what seemed to be trapped areas. With the torches on the walls providing sufficient light, we probably wouldn’t accidentally stumble into anything.

“Amazing! What’s that?”

“This is one of the Hero’s powers, a magic that allowed me to distinguish beings that were harmful to me. But with this, I could only find the location of traps, not disable them… Arielle-san.”

“Leave it to me. [Holy Guard]'”

Upon hearing Nico’s words, Arielle activated the magic, and a faint light membrane started to cover the glowing parts.

“Now that I’ve covered the traps themselves, poison clouds or arrow traps will be stopped by this shield and won’t reach us. Just be careful not to step on the glowing parts of the floor, as this won’t protect against pitfall traps.”

“Understood. Ha, this is handy.”

Though I had experienced this during the first round, it had been more than a hundred years ago in subjective terms. Filled with nostalgia and admiration for the convenience, we proceeded, avoiding the traps. However, traps weren’t the only obstacles.

“Wooooooooooooo……….”

“Ghouls and Mummies… No wonder they’re unpopular.”

Standing in the way in a passage where three people would bump shoulders were human-shaped monsters emanating a foul stench and another human-shaped monster wrapped in bandages. Their moaning incited an instinctive revulsion in the living, but to us,it was merely annoying.

“Ghouls yield nothing when defeated. Mummies, at best… really at best, their bandages can be sold. But even if you have a mountain of them, they’ll only amount to a child’s pocket money. If we could obtain clean bandages, I think there might be a demand…”

“It’s truly sad that there are people who have no choice but to use such filthy bandages. Oh, God. Please save these frail people.”

Nico grimaced, and Arielle prayed to the heavens. However, a fireball that flew from behind us roasted the Ghouls and Mummies crisp.

“Both of you, stop talking nonsense and take them down already. They stink so badly.”

“Ah, sorry, Kanan. Then I’ll take care of the rest…”

“I will do my best as well. God, grant these impure beings the light of peace! [Divine Aura!]”

Nico dashed through the passage with his small body, and in no time, he cut down several Mummies. The Ghouls that reached out for Nico also fell apart, dried and crumbled after being hit by Arielle’s magic.

“It seems fitting for a Hero’s party, doesn’t it? It looks like we won’t get a turn.”

“Yeah. Well, we’ll take it easy until we reach our destination.”

If we had faced formidable enemies and struggled, it would have been different, but barging into a perfectly coordinated party fighting easy-to-defeat mobs would have been nothing but a nuisance.

We didn’t let our guard down. But we didn’t overstrain either. Led by the Hero’s party, we safely advanced into the depths of the ruins.
