Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 510

 

Encounter



Inside the crack was darkness with no light.



"That's creepy."



I think everyone probably agreed with what I said.


Sedona is unnecessarily bouncing on the spot and hitting the floor with the soles of her shoes.


But there is no sound


The sound of air flowing


Walking sound too


There is no such thing as environmental sound.


It was a space where only the sounds of our voices and breathing existed.



"It's like wandering into another world."



One of the knights whispers


Everyone looks at him when they hear that.


It's like a different world


I checked the crack that we came in, caught in the unnatural sensation that gave me the illusion of being so.


The crack is definitely in the back


It's as far away as I walked


Everyone is relieved that this is not another world.



"What?"



At the same time as the light behind me becomes distant and small,


I see a small light in front of me


The further you go, the bigger it gets



"We haven't all been separated, have we?"



Wince and Sedona


All 50 knights are accompanying us.


The light ahead was a crack


Big enough for people to pass through


I peer ahead with the utmost caution


I took a breath


A space where there is nothing that can be called natural.


A room where everything is inorganic


Debris is scattered all over the place


A world that still functions



"Shiro-san, this is electricity, right?"



Wince points to the ceiling.



"Looks like it. Lights big enough to fill the ceiling..."



Light bulbs are developed in the Empire.


However, manufacturing costs are still high and it is not widely available.



"But it's too long for a light bulb."


"And the light is pure white."



I can hear the knights' conversation



"…Oya?"



I heard a voice that wasn't from us


At that moment, everyone gripped the hilt of their swords and looked in the direction of the sound.



"I hear a voice I don't recognize..."



Clang*, clang*.


The floor, which shouldn't make a sound, is struck by a cane and makes a light sound.


The owner is an old man with a bent back.



"Are you the ones who came down from the heavens?"


"…I don't know about those who came down from the heavens, but I'm sure it's different."



It's like the old man isn't hostile toward us.


It was a person whose entire body was white.


I feel something is wrong with the old man.


My memory tells me that he looks like someone


And the answer came right away


Is it okay to call it a sign?


They looked very similar to Shirufi and Serufi.



"I apologize for my rude and condescending appearance. I'm Shiro."


"Oh my, you have a name?"


"...Don't you have a name?"


"I don't know what my name is. We're called by serial numbers."



The old man said, showing the back of his hand.


There are complicated symbols written on it.
