☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- I wanted to equip him with a crossbow, - the priestess strokes the phantom's haft. - Maybe for swapping, but then it won't be used... Maybe we should send An-tan? His accuracy, unlike his character, is pretty good, he'll manage something. Ignoring the artifact shield when they have 100 HP each, and the overall effect isn't that great... is not very wise...

- Wait, none of us know how to use a shield, so it's not an option either way.

- Hmm... A collage featuring all of us seems obvious, but also cliché. You probably wouldn't be interested in drawing that, but if you want to, go ahead. Otherwise, maybe... us and Sonata in Kamimori, doing something? Or at least her, my presence isn't critical. Just to remember these unusual, but pleasant days. Can you do it?

- I'll try. You know, after the instructor, you're my second most important person in life, so this is a very good combination for me.

- I had no doubt that everything would go well. You're not the type to break promises.

The Lord replied with a tired but confident nod, accompanied by a sympathetic smile.

- Are they dolphins or something? Do we have a rough idea of how many there are, what the depth is, how agile and dangerous they are? Maybe Kayasa-kocho can do something and eliminate them in advance?

The Lord describes the appearance of the creatures, which matches what Sonata told them about, and then reports their characteristics.

- They are almost invisible from above, the number could not be determined.

Listening to the Lord, Yun decided to sketch a potential opponent in his notebook.
- Something like this? - he asks Sonata, Aiyano, and the Lord.

- Close, but not quite, - Sonata replied. - And this... is an interesting plot.
- Uh, I just tried to make it match the information I heard...

- ...the hall resembles a red moon. It's an interesting coincidence... Is the black color an abyss or rock? And, is something happening there right now? What about the enemies?

- This cult has nothing to do with me, - the phantom assured the priestess. - It's rock. When I passed by this hall, several cultists... Do I need to explain? - This was not a rhetorical question; the young man was not sure if he should elaborate.

- How many slaves are there? What is their condition?

- There are two in each room. Most of them are in satisfactory health.

- What about the inhabitants/slaves in general? Monsters, enemies, approximate numbers...? Is there anything unusual about... - not finishing the sentence, she just nods towards the black hannya.

- The first three green petals bloomed in the spring garden, - he explained regarding the unusual thing, - there are no monsters on these floors, enemies... Wait, I'll explain in more detail.

- I don't respect anyone, - Kilika replied, - there are those I have sympathy for, and those I don't...
