CH 70

Episode 070 Even so, I didn't do anything (It's different)

"You guys!! What are you doing!!"

A security officer who noticed the noise was rushing to us. I'm not doing anything I shouldn't be doing, but for some reason he looked sternly at me who was the only one standing.

"No, I just healed them with potions because they were injured ..."

"Really!?"

When I answer, he questions the four people who haven't gotten up yet.

"Yes, we're the bad ones that got involved with him."

"Yes, that's right, we're the bad ones."

"Yes, we got involved with him."

"We are all bad."

The four scream at the security officer with a depressed look.

Why are you emphasizing that you got involved with me so much?

"Oh, really?"

"No, I don't remember being involved at all ..."

"Well, come to the security room for a moment."

"Oh ... I understand."

When he answered the confused guard who turned his eyes to me again, he pointed with his chin to follow him. We were taken to the security room as we were and questioned about the event.

"You guys attacked this guy, but for some reason you were injured, and you were all scared of him and he recovered you with potions. Is that right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Don't you remember doing anything to these guys?"

"Oh, yes. That's right."

After listening to the rough story, the security staff revisited the outline of the event and asked whether the explorers who were involved with me are telling the truth.

"You haven't been injured anywhere ...?"

"Yes. No problem."

"Is that true?"

"Yes, nothing is wrong."

"Yes ... I understand."

The security officer confirms with me while writing what seems to be a record. I checked myself all over and then answered, and the security officer replied with a puzzled look.

"Sure, when I asked the other people to confirm, there was no discrepancy with your testimony. The four of them will be penalized."

"Yes, I understand."

The staff in charge gives his verdict while looking at the materials brought by other security staff.

At the words of the security officer, the four are complete 'Yes men'.

"It's fine for you. You don't seem to have any problems. There was no testimony that you made a move."

"Is that so? Can I go?"

"Yeah, you can go. I apologize for taking your time."

"No problem."

The staff gave me permission with a bitter smile, so I left the security room.

"Haa. An hour and a half ..."

The search time was shortened by an hour and a half because of the turmoil.

Even though I don't have free time ...

I wonder if I did something ...

I don't remember at all.

"Aside from that, I should pull myself together ..."

I patted my cheeks with my hands to switch my mood, and then stepped inside the dungeon.

First of all, a familiar cave welcomes me.

It's a mysterious space as usual. However, there was only one part that was different from usual. That is a ray of light shining at the end of the cave.

I walk step by step towards that light.

The light gradually grows.

After walking for about a minute, I exited the cave.

"Howaaaaa."

After passing through the cave, there is a place like a small hill, and I can see the view that spreads a little below. It is no exaggeration to say that there are many trees that spread out in front of me. A few clouds and a dazzling sun floated in the sky, illuminating the trees in the forest.

I was taken aback by the sight that I was not familiar with in Japan and the fact that a space of another dimension was spreading in the cave, and I leaked a strange sound from my mouth.

"There really is a forest in the cave."

When I regained my senses, I nodded and admired the mysterious sight. I turned aside and headed for the forest so that I wouldn't get in the way of other explorers.

"Luck."

"Won."

Then, when there was no presence around me, I had Luck come out of the shadows.

Perhaps because the sun is shining in the forest, it is relatively bright despite the fact that the sun is shining through the gaps between the trees and it is thick, but the visibility is not bad.

There are no enemies nearby, but I can detect many monsters roaming in the forest.

"Then, shall we fight now? I'm counting on you, Luck."

"Won."

After I gently stroked Luck's head, Luck and I slowly sank into the shadows at the same time as Luck's bark.
