Chapter 8-Gold ring and two reports
(TL:By Rafael)
"What was that, this guy ......? Rain, Silk, how did the investigation go?"(Yuki)
Rain was looking at this demon monster from a magical and theological point of view, and Silk was looking at it from a spiritual point of view.
"I don't know."(Rain)
Rain raised an eyebrow and twisted her head.
"Don't know?"(Yuki)
"If I had to guess, I'd say it's more like a magical creature, but it's also ...... unholy. If you took a person with a very bad nature and threw them headfirst into the stagnation of mana,......, this is what would happen? That's what it looks like."(Rain)
(TL: What would happen if we throw a Simon in? Comment down your guesses.)
"I agree with you. It was more like a reversal than a disturbance of the spirit. It's more like an undead with life force. ......"(Silk)
It seems that even the two of us can't catch a glimpse of it.
However, I also feel a similar sense of discomfort from the way the magic is passing through it.
Normally, my magic formulas are adjusted to work properly on life forms.
This time, I unleashed some debuff magic, but all of them felt a slight resistance.
There are times when an opponent's magical ability or mentality can bounce off the power of magic.
However, the chained man we had just encountered seemed to have magical resistance in his very existence.
It's not like for the undead to be completely impenetrable,......, but more like a magical creature or demon.
"Could it be some sort of demon?"(Yuki)
"That's the closest I can get in terms of spirit disturbance. ...... It was also different from the hundred-eyed sludge hecto-eyes we'd seen before."(Silk)
After all, the true identity is unknown?
"What do we do with the chains?"(Marina)
Marina asks me, pointing to the chains scattered on the floor.
If this is the residue of a demon, it might have some kind of curse on it. We need to be careful.
"Magic sensing 《sense magic》, curse sensing《 sense curses》."(Rain)
Rain waved her wand and cast a spell.
This is the first time we've encountered an unidentified enemy in a dungeon. ...... This kind of caution is necessary.
"Well, the chains are fine. But there's this weird ...... thing in the chain."(Rain)
"Which one ......?"(Yuki)
I searched for the "weird thing" as I put the various chains, large and small, into my magic bag. It was not long before I found it.
"A ring?"(Yuki)
I carefully picked it up with a pair of tweezers to make sure I didn't touch it directly.
It's a gold ring, a bit small for that stocky chain man to wear.
"...... No. I can't get any details from the appraisal. All I can tell you is that it has some kind of magic on it."(Yuki)
"It doesn't look good."(Rain)
"That's right. I'll bring it back and check it out back at base"(Yuki)
Even if it is temporary, I can't bring myself to wear a ring that I acquired from the remains of a demon, and even though I don't know the results of the appraisal, I have a strange feeling that things are about to get stranger.
It's so small, but it has too much presence.
"What should we do? I think I can track the chain marks."(Nene)
"I don't have a specific plan. Let's see where this thing came from first."(Yuki)
There might be a summoning trace somewhere, or there might be a summoner.
It's also possible that the labyrinth's characteristics are calling to it, and it would be important for the investigation to find out the source of the problem.
...... In any case, that thing was pretty strong.
If put in ranks, it was definitely at least a C rank.
If it's wandering around from the first level, the rank of this labyrinth will increase considerably.
"I will scout and follow the chain trails."(Nene)
"Yes, please."(Yuki)
While granting Marina and Rain "magic power continuous recovery refresh mana", put the ring in a small bag and store it in the magic bag.
I should not touch it with your bare hands.
"Hey, Yuki Can we talk?"(Marina)
"What's the matter, Marina?"(Yuki)
"Well, it's hard to tell, but I think the ...... thing was a person."(Marina)
"Did you see it?"(Yuki)
It was all covered with chains, so I couldn't see what was inside, but did Marina, who was up close and personal, see it?
"No. I think it's a samurai ability, but I can almost tell what the person I cut is. ...... It's hard to explain. I'm an idiot, so I can't explain it well."(Marina)
I lightly patted Marina's depressed head.
"No, it's helpful."(Yuki)
It's my fault as the leader of the group for not fully grasping the capabilities of the "samurai" job.
There are so few of them still I've never had the chance to get involved with them. ......
I've heard that samurai can be very particular about what they cut.
I've heard that samurai are specialized in cutting off life, and that they have a resistance to using their skills in other ways - cutting off trivial things other than life.
Therefore, she has a sense of what it was that she cut.
If Marina say it was a human being, then there is a high probability that the man in chains is something similar to a human being.
"And besides, there was no magic stone."(Yuki)
It's true, if you ask me.
If it is a pure demon, it should have a demon stone, but I couldn't find it in the chain.
"Maybe it's demonic possession. If that's the case, is it because of that ring ......?"(Yuki)
"We'll think about it when we get back, Yuki-san. Nene has returned."(Silk)
The night-visioned Silk pointed to the end of the passage.
Immediately, the lights illuminated Nene, who was running toward us.
"I'm back. Two things to report: ...... First, I found the stairs."(Nene)
That's a good report. We've reached our first goal for now.
"It's just an uphill staircase. ......"(Nene)
"Up? It's an underground canal, but it doesn't go down?"(Marina)
Marina raised her voice in surprise.
I agree with her. I thought it was a type of waterway where you follow the flow of water down to the basement, but it's an upward staircase?...... Then we'll be on the ground, won't we?
"I haven't checked upstairs yet. Secondly, I found the chain man's roost."(Nene)
"How was it?"(Yuki)
"It was unoccupied. I think it would be faster if you checked this one."(Nene)
"All right, let's all head for the chain man's roost first."(Yuki)
I nodded to Nene and looked deep into the darkness.
A gold ring on a vanishing corpse. On top of that, the contents could be human. Is it because I'm not brave enough that I can't help but feel an indescribable sense of dread in this situation?
"Let's go with caution. The clouds are getting weirder."(Yuki)
I told myself, and with Marina and the others nodding, I carefully made my way through the darkness of the underground canal.
TL Note- Raise your hand if you think they are going to meet something other than a simple monster. (I raised mine)
