What Came to Mind During My Third Time in Another World Was to for Now, Get Naked. Chapter 51

『Ancient Library: Underground Pa.s.sage』

“HAAA!!”

『GYAOOOOOO!!!』

“HOI”

『GYAGYAN!!』

“Fist of truth, shake the atmosphere! 《Surge Opposition》!!” Tao

『GUFOAAAAAAA!!』

Oh, it’s the first time I saw Tao’s 《body》 magic.

“《Double Axle Blade》!!” Selen

『GOEEEEEeeee!!!!』 『GYAGYAN!!』

Ooh, Selen’s simultaneous attack, so cool.

“W-what… They’re strengths are….” Mage

The 5 mages became useless.

Our party has already advanced to the furthest parts of the cave and unsealed a lot of doors.
However the further we go in the more monsters pop out stupidly as feared…
In the end Rei and Selen had to deal with them, this was the reason everyone had to fight.

“Hoi”

『GUFUAAAAAAAAaaaa!!!』

“… Kazuha? Can you fight more seriously? Cause if you don’t I might loose my feeling to fight” Ruru

Fine, whatever.
Wait, you ain’t fighting so it’s all good!

“T-there! The 《crest》 of that innermost door…! That crest is the same as the one described in the 《ancient doc.u.ment》! ” Mage

A mage points at the door screaming.

“Ahh. Then that’s the last door?” Kazuha

『GYAGYAN!!』

A somewhat huge scorpion came to bite my foot but I kicked it away while listening to the mage.

“Ah… Okay! According to the doc.u.ments, in that door is a 『coffin』 sealed since ancient times, stored in it is a 《chalice》 that is extraordinarily precious…!” Mage

Hee. A 『chalice』 inside a 『coffin』 eh…
It’s kinda weird…
But I guess that’s what the prime minister was saying 『precious cultural a.s.set』.

“… Sealed in an underground pa.s.sage. …A door with 《sacred crest》. …An isolated 『coffin』. … And a… 《chalice》…?” Ruru

Muttered the little girl.

“What’s wrong? You’re out of character making such a serious face, Ruru.” Kazuha

“… Please don’t make fun of me, Kazuha. Because I’m thinking seriously…” Ruru

The little girl strongly said.

“《Amzeria》 was the center of the 《Spirit Demon war》 thousands of years ago… There we the 『Spirit Army』 was defeated by the 『Demon Army』, right after the demons ruled then came about the 『dark age』—” Ruru

He~y…
For some reason, Ruru went to her own world…

“…Kazuha, I feel like something really bad will happen… About that 《chalice》 thing–” Ruru

“Heeey! We’re still not finished gaining control of the door—! Hurry it up mages-san—!” Tao

“Ah…” Kazuha

With Tao’s order, the mages hastened their way to the door.
Still Ruru has an nervous expression.

“… Well, ain’t everything be fine? If a monster were to come out from that 『coffin』 then I’ll blow it away and certainly I’ll protect you” Kazuha

I said while petting Ruru’s head.

“Kazuha…” Ruru

Oh, finally the time has come that Ruru will open her heart to me…!

“Your face is the one irritating me the most” Ruru

“…………………….. Yeah” Kazuha

I probably won’t recover anymore…

Then I cried midst holding both of my knees, and the magic to unseal the door has been finished, I looked with tear filled eyes……。

“…Yos.h.i.+! We’ve lifted the seal! …. Are the preparations done?” Mage

Said a mage that faced us.
Fine…
I’ll… be mean…

“Why are you arbitrarily feeling down…? Did you do something to Ruru-chan again? At a time like this…” Tao

Shaddap! Shaddap Tao!

“Now then… we’ll be opening it!!” Mage

*Gigigigi/creaky door*… we opened the last door.

“My, my…! This is…!” Rei

Rei-san raised a voice of amazement.
I follow everyone midst my depression and peeked at the 『room』.

In spite of it being underground the room was shrouded with bluish-white light.
If I were to describe it in one word, it would be 『solemn』.
The room was the materialization of that word.

“…! Found it! That 『coffin』 in the middle…!” Mage

A mage shouted.
The mages gather around the 『coffin』.

“Hey, hey… is that okay? Approaching something like that defenselessly…” Kazuha

As expected of (the depressed) me, I called out on the mages with an surprised voice warning them not to be rash.

“…” Ruru

“… Ruru?” Kazuha

Why did you suddenly go silent, Ruru?

What?
Are you still thinking on what you said to me…

“It’s just like the 《ancient doc.u.ment》…! This 『coffin』 is carved with the same 《crest》! Inside of it is……… 《The Chalice of the King of Spirits》!!” Ruru

…Eh?

“《The Chalice of the King of Spirits》!”  (2)

Ruru suddenly shouted.
Eh? What? Is that dangerous?

“…Ruru. Are you perhaps…” Selen

Selen held the curse sword towards Ruru with vigilance.
Hey, hey, hey! I don’t know what’s what…

“Ruru-chan? Do you know something…? About this 『room』…? ” Tao

Even Tao payed Ruru attention.
Oi oi… Seriously everyone, what’s happening…
For some reason the moment we entered this room the mood suddenly got done…?

“… In any case let’s open the 『coffin』. Everyone, please do” Rei

…Eh?

“H-hey! Rei-san! I think you should probably wai–” Kazuha

I was too late.
The 『coffin』 was already opened–.

ZUKUON!!!

“UO!?” Kazuha

W-what!? What’s with that gooseb.u.mps!?

I had never felt such intense chills.
I look around.

“…Huh? No-nothing… happened?” Kazuha

Nothing out of the ordinary had happened.
The moment I stroke my chest–.

Sounds of crumbling reverberated under my feet.

“Hey! Ruru! What happened!” Kazuha

“U…Uu…” Ruru

And immediately at my side Ruru collapsed.

“Ruru-chan!” Tao

Tao frantically rush over.
Ho…
It seems like the previous Tao has returned…
” …… It’s seems like I was wrong… Hey, Tao. Put Ruru on my back” Selen

Selen sheathed the curse sword and gave Tao directions.
Jeez, what the heck was that just now…
Pointing your sword towards Ruru…

“Are you okay? Kazuha-sama….” Rei

Rei-san approaches with a worried expression.
Ye-ah…?

I think Rei-san was weird just a while ago too…?

“…Aah. It seems like she only lost consciousness. … What about the 《chalice》?” Kazuha

“Yes. We have successfully retrieved it” Rei

I see.
Then we don’t have to stay in this eerie place.
even though she just lost consciousness, I’m still worried about her.
Let’s leave this place, now that we don’t have any more reason to stay.

“… Yos.h.i.+. Then, le’s go home. We’ve finished our goal too” KAzuha

With my orders, we ascended from the pa.s.sage.

And again securing the doors we pa.s.s through–.

— We continue to press forward to the surface.
