I walked along the wall, tracing the walls with my hands.
It would be unfortunate if there was a trap, but I would come back to life even if I died, so there would be no problem.
Although it hurts like crazy. ……
Clack.
I knocked over a small pebble as I was walking.
Although I turned on the light, it was still a dark place.
I couldn’t pay attention to the small pebble.
But that pebble made a strange sound.
Clack clack …… clok,
Halfway through the walk, the pebble made a sound of hitting stone against stone, but at the end, I heard a sound that was clearly made of a different material.
Yet, looking around, nothing but the stone could be seen.
I reached out my hand in the direction of the kick and walked carefully.
At the end of the corridor.
Just as I reached the end of the corridor and was about to touch the wall, my hand fell into the wall.
“!?”
I pull it back in a panic, but there is no external injury.
I tried again, but it was still stuck in the wall.
As I reached back, I touched something.
“It was a wooden door …….”
What a clever way to hide it.
The fact that it is hidden means that this is a place where they definitely do not want to be seen.
Let’s get in there right away.
I searched for the handle by hand and grabbed it.
Since it was a door that I had to push to get in, I willingly let my body sink into the wall.
But it was only for a moment, and soon a different scene jumped into my eyes.
There were desks, chairs, bookshelves, and samples of research materials.
I found a place that looked like the Lequam’s research archives, with various objects sitting untouched.
Although dusty, the materials should be readable without any problems.
“Jackpot ……!”
I immediately started looking around.
With a magic tool bag at the ready, one by one, packing up the stuff in this room.
Though what I am doing is the same as robbery, Lequam is already dead.
These materials must be put to good use.
I need time to examine it.
Just what in the world was he studying here, and what was he trying to do with the slaves?
Perhaps it was all connected to the devil.
No documents at all that I don’t need.
I don’t want to read the letters in this place.
I will just collect them quickly and read them in a different place.
“……!”
As I was rummaging through my bag of materials and research samples, I saw a crystal.
It has a strange creature inside.
“The magic crystal ……!”
There is surely a connection between Lequam and the Devil.
The material evidence was enough to confirm this.
I quickly shoved that into the bag of magic tools, and then shoved the other items into the bag at once as well.
Hurry, hurry, hurry.
Now that the connection to the devil has been confirmed, even being here is getting dangerous.
This is the place where Lequam and the devil were researching something.
It is not surprising that they are planning some countermeasures.
Since this is Lekuam’s laboratory, no traps are likely to be set here.
However, there is a possibility that something that can sense people has been placed there.
Before the devil finds out about this place, we need to get out of here quickly…
