Episode 327: Trembling with fear
After meeting up with Rei and enjoying Bulgarian cuisine, we flew to the next dungeon, and immediately after that we investigated the teleportation trap in order to let Rei rest, and spent the night in the dungeon.
The next dungeon was in Greece, and the next day after we arrived, after a day of sightseeing on the main island and a good rest at the hotel, after crossing over to the famous island of Crete and visiting the sights, we stopped at the ruins of the Palace of Knossos.
In Knossos, there was a hidden door that was so imposing that it didn't look like it was hidden. However, it seemed that anyone who found the hidden door among the visitors would try to open it, but no one seemed to have been able to open it.
As for us, we were able to break into the door without having to open it in the first place because Luck was there.
Of course, since we had Rei and Luck, who were our party's proud detection team, we could have easily opened it, but because there were too many eyes around us, after moving to a place that no one could see, we hid in the shadows, and entered the hidden door.
Inside it was a labyrinth separate from a dungeon, where we faced legendary creatures famous in mythology, such as the Minotaur, Phoenix, Cerberus, Chimera, Hydra, and Griffon.
[ Alright. I will follow you. ]
Among them, the Phoenix was able to exchange words and was a dignified existence, but it took a liking to Nanami's presence and became Nanami's subordinate demon.
"Nice to meet you, Hii-chan."
"Leave it to me, piyo."
When it became a subordinate demon, it would still be difficult for it to spend time outside while still emitting flames, and its size became a problem, so it had to change its appearance.
Its appearance, except for the mixture of a bright fiery red color and yellowish vermilion, it looked exactly like a palm parakeet, and its talking appearance was just like that of a palm parakeet, so even if it spoke in public, we would probably be able to deceive people.
Nanami happily stroked the head of Hiiko who was on her shoulder.
Hiiko was said to have been named after the initial part of Phoenix(TN:Hi no tori, firebird) and the given name of the Queen of the Yamatai Country. Even though she is my Imouto, she has a wonderful naming sense.
Yup, yup.
Concerning the Cerberus, Chimera, and Hydra, it was not possible to communicate with them, so we decided to fight them.
However, we didn't actually fight directly. The reason is that Luck volunteered to take care of them.
The three legendary creatures fought against Luck and were easily subjugated, so they fell under Luck's control.
It seemed that they would normally live a leisurely life in the remote mountains.
It seemed that Luck's Kagema would watch over them and prevent people from finding them. Then, there wouldn't be any problems.
And when we met the last one, the Griffon. And so, with a trembling telepathic voice, 'I, if you win a contest of strength with me, I'll submit to you.', it requested a contest of strength.
I wanted to be its opponent, but Amane, 'I want a subordinate, too.', said such while staring at us enviously, and I decided to hand it over to her.
"Staring today, you're Guri-chan."
[ U, umu, alright. ]
Amane also won with ease, or rather, what was the Griffon thinking when it challenged her to a strength competition, in an instant, it surrendered and submitted to Amane.

Behind Amane, Luck was breathing heavily 'Ha!Ha!Ha!Ha!' while sticking out its tongue and staring at the Griffon, so that might have something to do with it.(TN:Luck: 'Fried chicken!!')
Every time Luck moved, its body trembled.
Guri's body size was also somehow managed, and it turned into a cute little Griffon that looked like a deformed plush toy.
However, it was ridiculous to even compare her to Nanami because of her overly simple naming sense!!(TN:Should've named it Guriko or something, c'mon Amane, pick up your naming sense!!)
Like Nanami, she carried it on her shoulder, but it looked like she was carrying a stuffed animal, let's not tell Amane that she looks a bit like a cringy person.
However, it didn't feel like much time had passed since we were exploring the labyrinth in Greece, but for some reason many days had passed when we went outside, so we didn't have time to go sightseeing in the rest of the country.
On the contrary, with one country per day we would not be able to meet the deadline for summer vacation.
After that, we just investigated the dungeon, jumped to the next dungeon, and repeated the act of sleeping and investigating dungeons, and we managed to return earlier than planned, two days before the last day of our vacation.
"Good job. Thank you very much for your cooperation with the investigation."
As soon as we return to Japan, Rei smiles and thanks us.
"What are you talking about. It's nothing. Besides, we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We had so much fun that I wondered if we would ever be able to come back. Right?"
I smile embarrassedly and tell her not to worry about it, and ask everyone to agree.
"Yeah, it was a lot of fun, so it's mutual!!"
"Nn. It was fun."
"I had a lot of fun, too. Also, I met Guri-chan."
The three of them who are questioned by me happily reply to Rei.
"I see. That's good, then. By the way, it's good that the four of you had a lot of fun, but have you finished your homework? I don't remember seeing you do it."
However, Rei's words after that make us shudder and our faces turn pale.
Right.
Schools in the world naturally have homework during summer vacation. I was thinking of doing it while on the investigation trip, but I completely forgot.
""I forgot!!""
The four of us shout in unison.
After that, we all gathered at the Satou house and ended up frantically doing our homework.
Finish your summer vacation homework according to plan!!
Otherwise, you'll end up like me!!
