Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 125

 

Chapter 125: Division



Right next to the ship where it landed.


"What are these stairs?"


As Wince said, there were stairs buried in the ground.


It's so long I can't see the end.


"It's full of cracks, it must be pretty old."


"Father, Mother. There is a presence at the end of these stairs."


I guess so


That's all there is around


"Let's go!"




----




After a while, down the stairs


"Lost…"


Wonderfully lost


Similar rooms everywhere


At the end of the room is the same room again


The passageways connecting the rooms turn to the right and to the left


Spiraling up and down


"What's this underground! Are they harassing us? The person in charge should come out... he's already dead, isn't he! Damn it!"


"Well, well, calm down, Shiro-san."


Wince is calmly mapping the area.


"There's something wrong with the laws of physics here."


"What do you mean?"


"Look, it's around here."


She points to a piece of paper.


There are multiple rooms overlapping in the same place


"Is it the spiral that's messing with your sense of verticality?"


"Even if it was, how could you move up and down in a room this size and have them overlap?"


Well, I don't think Wince would be that stupid.


"Hey, Father."


Sedona seems to have noticed something.


"What up?"


"Yeah, I just noticed about what Mother said just now."


She seems to have noticed something important


“Does the word [vertical movement] excite you?”


I hit her head with the sword


"Ouch!"


"Please, can we be serious?"


"Eh! Even though I'm serious!"


"That's even worse!"


"That's right, Sedona!"


Wince blames her


Yeah, we've done this pattern before.


“You should mix not only up and down, but also back and forth and twisting.”


I also put the hand sword on Wince's head


But Wince evades!


“You won’t hit me with such a lighthearted attack, you know?”


Damn it! Wince, your movements are getting better year by year.


"Let's stop doing things that tire us wastefully."


"I thought this would be a good way to take a breather, but..."


"Then let's resume mapping."


"Ah, then it's all......"


Sedona's words trailed off.


I turn around to see what's going on.


"Sedona?"


Wince also turns around and notices something's wrong.


Sedona, who had been there just now, had disappeared.


"Sedona!"


The blood drains from Wince's face instantly.


She touches the spot where Sedona had been.


"Wince! Look, there's a scratch on the wall."


"Ah, ah…"


"Calm down, Sedona is strong enough. We'll worry about that when we joined later."


"Ah, y-yes."


We'll both run through at once.


We're going to have to hunt down every last one of them.


"Mapping, please!"


"I understand!"
