“It’s a pretty barren room. There’s nothing here.” (Kei)
It took us four hours to find a hidden door. We were exploring a room that was as large as a Boss Room.
In the end, we couldn’t figure out how to get into this room after four hours of searching. No matter how much magic I used, I couldn’t find any trace of a door or any strange feeling on the wall. I kept pounding on the walls, but there was nowhere to hear a hollow sound and nowhere to move.
Just as I was about to give up and leave, my hand on the wall lost its resistance and was sucked into the wall.
I think that doors only appear when a number of conditions come together.
It could be the situation, the number of explorers present, or the will.
It is possible that once we leave this room, we will never be able to enter it again. That’s why we don’t know the condition of the door and can’t be sure.
“Brother, there’s something here.” (Haru)
When I was thinking about that, Haru, who was looking at the back of the room, found something.
“A Magic Circle? It looks like it.” (Kei)
There was a cube made of stone about the size of my fist. On its surface were a large number of magic circles.
“Haru, stay away. [Domination].” (Kei)
I took a distance from the stone and used [Domination] to hit the magic circle with magic power from a distance.
I think it’s probably a transfer just like the previous Magic Circles, but it’s dangerous if it transfers to a strange place, and there are other possibilities. Just to be sure, I activated the Magic Circle from a distance.
After a few seconds of applying magic power, the Magic Circles on the surface of the stone began to glow. When one Magic Circle started to glow, the other Magic Circles started to glow in a chain reaction. In the blink of an eye, all the Magic Circles were glowing, creating a bunch of light that I couldn’t see straight, and then, with a familiar sound, it appeared.
Letters of light floated in the air.
“Workshop?” (Kei)
“It says workshop.” (Haru)
It was the word “Workshop” that appeared in front of us. Well, not exactly.
・ Workshop
・ Not open
・ Not open
Apparently, two of the three cannot be checked.
“What does it mean?” (Kei)
“I don’t know. Oh, I got it.” (Haru)
Haru tilted her head, poked at the floating letters, and clapped her hands together.
・ Workshop -Start-
・ Not open
・ Not open
“It’s starting up.” (Haru)
Haru touches the word “start” without any hesitation.
The letters glowed red for a moment, then faded away as if they were melting into the air. It was about the time when I couldn’t see all the letters and couldn’t even recognize their traces. There was a sound like the rumbling of the earth.
“Haru, please be more careful.” (Kei)
“Ahaha, I’m sorry.” (Haru)
With our backs to the wall, we readied our weapons and searched for the source of the sound. Is it a demon or a trap? We look around cautiously, making sure there is nothing unusual in the flow of magic. And then.
“”Ouch!”” (Haru & Kei)
We were blown away from behind.
“What is this, a computer?” (Kei)
“No, it can’t be. It’s not, is it?” (Haru)
The thing that pushed us away was a machine made of a material that looked like iron or stone. It looked like a desktop computer, with a large monitor about two meters high, and a keyboard like a laptop with a huge touchpad-like thing attached.
Of course, there were no alphabets written on the keyboard-like thing, and although there were keys, they were arranged differently and could not be pressed. And then.
“ぶきしゅおせんたくして” [T/N: Bear with it for now. It says bu-ki-shi-yu-o-se-n-ta-ku-shi-te.]
What appeared on the screen was a simple interface and a phrase in hiragana that was hard to read.
