Chapter 59 – When to Step Outside
The strange excitement of stepping into a place called a dungeon or dungeon that can only be found in books or foreign museums.
What should I say about this? I feel like a tourist visiting a castle in Europe after experiencing and playing with a nobi in a folk village.
I snorted fiercely at the strange excitement that I was exploring in a fantasy-like fantasy for the first time in a while, and I was touching every place I could reach, wondering if there was a secret device somewhere here.
“If this place is really the underground of the Isis territory, I think it would be quite convincing.”
It’s not the basement of other rich guys’ mansions, but the basement of the Isis territory.
It’s a prestigious knight’s family. Even my cute sow, Sylveria, has been holding a sword since she was little, and her mother, Veronica, is also said to be the same.
The fact that even a child knows how to wield a sword in this way means that in this mansion, all the silver-haired members of the family with the surname ‘Isis’ are equipped with such skills that they can cutely cut a goblin in half in front of their eyes.
Besides, all articles.
That means, what is
The members of this house are members who do not need to run away.
“If it breaks, it breaks, they say it doesn’t break.”
Like my cock!
Then you know very well that there was no need to build evacuation routes or shelters. What I’m really curious about is why, in such a prestigious and proud knight family, why is there a dungeon facility that the next lord, Sylveria, or perhaps even Veronica, the head of this place, is unaware of?
“That’s it, the goju will figure it out on its own.”
Torture instruments that don’t rust even if everything else is witty.
I wonder if something will come out if I conduct an investigation centering on them?
I wouldn’t go so far as to ask them to investigate the tools and find out who enjoyed them, who was tortured, and who was imprisoned, but at least I would like to know why they are here and why there is such a facility underground. Did.
At least you need to know that so you don’t feel sorry for the previous owner
It’s mine now
Anyway, how long has it been since I walked through the walls one by one, asking questions in my head and climbing these circular stairs that make my heart pound just by stepping inside?
“… “
The circular staircase, which seemed to climb endlessly, ended with a dead-end wall.
But maybe it was because I was already convinced that this place was a secret space, and I felt like I was a detective seeing things I wouldn’t normally see.
As a result of observing and scanning the walls here and there to find clues to solve the mystery to open the secret door that appeared in front of me one by one.
“These chafing marks on the floor”
The secret door (presumption) in front of my eyes has changed to a secret door (certainty) from these marks where the secret door (presumption) has collided with each other and worn out in a fan shape, and I can get a basis for my reasoning that there is something beyond this stone wall. There has been
But I’m going crazy because I can’t see a lever to pull the door.
So this time, I looked at the secret door to see if there was a button rather than a lever, but there was no lever and I found a strange hole.
At las! I tried to insert my finger into this mysterious hole, convinced that it was actually the button that opened this door.
“Fuck”
The size did not fit my fingers.
But this hole, even if I wasn’t an orc, I’m sure I wouldn’t have been able to open the door, even if it was small, it was too small.
It was a hole of such size that even a human male, let alone an orc, could barely put a finger through it, so if anyone ever put a finger into this hole, it would be a human woman with relatively smaller hands than a man, just that size.
“Wait, that means… ?”
There is a secret door
There is a hole to open the door.
Men can’t open
Women can open
This facility is related to the head of the Isis family, which has been a female head of household for generations. (Hypothesis 1)
There is a secret door.
Only women can open it.
The head of the Isis family is a woman.
You have the power to have these facilities in your mansion.
This facility was created by the head of the Isis family for a purpose. (Hypothesis 2)
However, even after making hypotheses like this for a hundred days, no definite conclusion can be drawn.
Combining Hypotheses 1 and 2, it is concluded that this facility is closely related to the Isis family head, and that no one except the head of the Isis family knows this facility.
If so, wouldn’t Sylveria, the next owner of the house, have mentioned this facility to me? According to Koju, Sylveria said that when she came to find herself living in the underground waterway, she came through the sewers in the residence on the side of the main road.
There’s a dungeon under her house that’s connected to an underground water supply. Why?
She said, “In the first place, she is the house she lives in, so does it make sense that she doesn’t know this?”
I do not know…
I don’t know about her own house…
It makes no sense, but what if this idea is really correct?
She is the next head of the household, but did her mother, Veronica, not tell her about the facilities of her house where she lives? Or what if even Veronica didn’t know about the facility’s existence?
If so, I can explain why this facility is so laggy.
What if someday the human who first built this facility used it for her own purposes and died without telling her descendants about this facility for some reason, either she simply forgot or didn’t want to tell her about it?
“I won’t leave any documents or anything like that, like a cross-section of the mansion.”
This is a secret facility. It could be leaked to someone, so it was usually passed on word of mouth about these facilities, but that said, for some reason, as I said before, it didn’t pass on for some reason, and the subsequent family heads didn’t know about the existence of this facility, so it was forgotten.
“Anyway, that’s it. Second, the problem is that I can’t open this door.”
Should I just go down and call Goju?
The moment you do
Coo coo coo-
Suddenly, the door in front of me started to vibrate and slowly open.
What is it, I was just holding on to my poop, thinking that no one would know about this facility even just a moment ago, but what if someone comes in like this!
‘Who is more, who is opening this door?’
This is the most important
What if the person on the other side of the door was Veronica?
My grand plan ends without even starting.
With the ray of light slowly shining from the outside, they were waiting in the crouching start posture that track and field athletes do before starting, with the intention of attacking them if necessary.
But
The more the door opens, the more familiar faces can be seen through the cracks, with sapphire-colored hair and emerald-like green eyes…
“Dad? Are you really dad? Also! My female instincts told me that my dad was nearby, so I did it just in case!”
When my daughter, Snowwhite, appeared, I sighed and fell back. As soon as he saw my face, Snow hugged me as if he was happy, and the musty smell unique to the sewer system permeated his body. He hugged and rubbed his face.
“Uuuuu- thick male scent~♥”
Rather than that, Mr. A, I was scared for nothing
“Did you open this?”
The secret door wide open, did Snow open it from the outside or did I press something to open it?
“Huh! I pressed something and it opened! Ah! And here it is! The human mansion is so amazing! There are just so many things!”
Snow White, who was still rubbing her face in my arms, lifted her head up, grabbed me up, grabbed me by the hand, and began to drag me.
The place that Snow led to was the warehouse.
Looking at the luxurious-looking ceramics and sculptures displayed here and there, it seemed more like an art gallery or exhibition hall than a warehouse.
“What kind of art museum or exhibition hall is this at a time when dust has accumulated, it’s just a fancy warehouse”
“?”
I didn’t have this kind of inspiration for pottery or fancy ornaments like this, but Snow, who was seeing these fancy things for the first time since birth, had a strange look in his eyes like a child who came to an art museum for the first time.
“By the way, how did you open that door?”
“Oh that!”
When I asked, the overjoyed Snow took my hand and led me to the wide-open door, in front of a picture of an anglerfish hanging on the wall that was gross at first glance.
“Wow, that looks creepy”
“Why? I am cute”
“?”
Thinking that there might be something wrong with her daughter’s sense of beauty, I looked at the title of this painting under the picture of an anglerfish with razor-like teeth gaping open.
– Curiosity sometimes invites death
“When I put my finger in the anglerfish’s mouth here, it just pressed something!”
“… “
Was she supposed to be glad that her daughter hadn’t learned to read yet? Snow groaned once more and put his finger into the mouth of the mouth, and the wide open door began to close again.
“Do all human houses have secret devices in their paintings like this?”
“No, that… “
The moment we try to tell Snow the harsh reality that we are just dirt spoons.
– Thud thud
‘Footsteps!’
Human footsteps were heard. Not one, but two.
-… Recipe… Want to…
-Yes… West… Under…
It’s hard to hear, but judging from the familiar voice, it’s clear that one of the people walking this way is Sylveria, and the other one is…
“Ha, Grandma!”
“What?!”
Why are you here all of a sudden?!
