Chapter 28: An exciting viewing party with subordinates.
Now that they safely depart, let’s see what they see.
『Jiryuu-sama. Can I see it too? 』
『Purupur~』
『Oh, Ann and Pururu too? 』
I can understand Pururu but Ann? That’s unusual.
『I feel a bit worried about the kids since we always train together. 』
The question I pondered was answered by Ann.
So that’s the case.
Now that I think of it, Una did tell me Ann is training them.
『Alright. Three people then. 』
Actually, it would be nice if it’s only with Pururu but I guess it’s fine once in a while.
Besides, it’s important to deepen your relationship with your subordinates.
While Pururu is beside me most of the time, Ann is always on the upper floor.
She only came down when she had something to report.
We rarely get the chance to see each other.
『By the way, please treat me well, Pururu. 』
Ann extended her hand toward Pururu.
『Puu! 』
Pururu slap it away.
『……』
Silent this time, Ann holds out her hand again.
『Puu! 』
Pururu slap it again.
……….What are those two doing?
『……It seems that we need to have a proper talk after this. 』
『Puru! 』
What just happened?
Somehow I can see sparks flying between them.
I think it’s better for me to just leave them alone.
As I arrived at the ruins, I fiddled with the pedestal, producing a mirror at the centre of it.
A metre size mirror that displays Una’s vision.
As golem, their affinity with magic tools is very high.
I found it by chance while I was having a thought that I’ll never see the outside again.
This mirror originally comes in a pair that allows you to see the view from the other mirror.
However, the paired mirror broke and couldn’t be used anymore.
It’s a magic tool that synchronizes vision through magic reconstruction.
It can’t pick up sound but you can see the same scenery while staying in the ruins.
Elibel seriously left behind really amazing magic tools.
Now then, pouring magical power into it….. Oh, it came out.
What is displayed in the mirror is a magnificent view reminiscent of the Grand Canyon.
Is this what Una is seeing?
How nostalgic.
This place really has nothing in it.
But for me it’s a food heaven.
『Hm? 』
Then I noticed something.
『….Tres and Dos clothes are different. 』
They’re dressed in a brownish cloak.
Instead of their usual Áo dài, they’re wearing shabby shirts and pants under it.
And in the corner of the vision I can see Una wearing….. wait, is that a black cloak?
It’s a black cloak with some green leaves embroidery on it.
There should be no clothing materials anymore and where’s their normal clothes?
『Jiryuu-sama. I’m afraid that’s because of my advice. 』
『You? 』
『Yes. Their clothes are made of Jiryuu-sama scale and skin. In order to hide your existence from the outside world, I gave them the other clothes to wear. 』
『Hmm, you’ve got a point there. 』
It’s necessary for them to change their attire when going out in order to protect themselves.
It’s all thanks to Ann. But she’s an ant though.
I think I’m forgetting something here.
『Hm? The clothes, what it’s made out of? 』
『They’re made from earthworm skin and also go- goblin. We strip goblin off their equipment. 』
『Oh, now that you mention, I did hear that the earthworm often appeared on the upper floor. 』
I received several reports from Ann telling me about it when the dungeon is still being expanded.
The extermination seems to be going on smoothly and lately I haven’t heard about it anymore.
『Yes. Since Jiryuu-sama don’t eat meat, we ate them and saved their skin for this kind of occasion. 』
『Oh, I see. 』
I saw it before. I could never eat that grotesque meat.
Besides, when you compare it with magic stone, the magical power contained in it is abysmal.
Eating rocks is much better.
『Oh, did goblin appear too? Why I wasn’t mentioned about it? 』
『……you were sleeping at that time. 』
『Oh, so I didn’t hear it…. 』
『Yes. And when I came down to report it to you again, you were playing with Tres. 』
『Oh….』
I couldn’t retort back at all.
But still, is that so.
So it’s from the goblin. Does goblin live underground as well?
When I searched for it I found a species of goblin called the dirt goblin.
It’s written that their habitat is not in the Eld Desert. But you never know.
They might have moved in here already.
By the way, people here used to use the word goblin as a figure of speech for fools and thoughtless people.
…….Well, not like it matters anymore.
Back to the mirror.
They seem to have found a road.
According to the map, there’s a huge forest on the east of the Eld Desert and the Eld Mine in the north. The map also shows that there’s a human country beyond the Eld Mine.
This road is at the foot of the Eld Mine.
Eld Mine is a place where the magic stone is mine. Based on the map, the mine is just at the bottom of it.
Will the human country remain just like the in the map?
Well, let’s watch them for now.
