Elena used "<>" on top of her beginner's level earth magic. It is a magic to search for underground veins, but it can also tell whether there are cavities or not.
After several times.
"There is a cavity under here.
Elena has successfully found a cellar.
However, the entrance and exit are unknown.
It's possible that the room was sealed off.
"Yes, I suppose so."
Jin told me that the old Leonard Kingdom was destroyed by , so I realized that this basement might have been built to escape from that plague.
"If there were people sheltering inside at the time ......"
Donald shuddered.

On the other hand, in Horai Island, the old man found out about this discovery and immediately checked it with a .
If something harmful was sealed inside, it would be dangerous.
But....
<>.
The old man decided to go with the flow.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"In any case, I think we need to look into it."
Elena said in a firm voice.
"Yes,......."
"But, Donald and the others, please stay away for a while. I'm the only one who can check it out."
"But, Elena, ......
"Don't worry. What danger could there be in a 240 year old cellar in the first place?"
Elena dared to ignore the events at the Botsuffa site to reassure Donald.
"Okay. Be careful."
"Yes. If there is no danger, I will call you as soon as I can.
Thus, Elena started to make a hole in the floor by herself. She intends to pull out the ceiling of the basement.
Instead of engineering magic, she uses earth magic <.
This is a good idea, since stone is easy to process with earth magic. But Elena can hardly use engineering magic at all.
In about 15 minutes, a hole is made in the basement, which is barely big enough for one person to pass through. It took a long time because the floor = ceiling of the basement was about one meter thick.
"That's enough for now. I have to do some reconnaissance first.
Elena danced into the hole without hesitation.
After a fall of about 5 meters, Elena landed on the floor.
"This is ......."
It was an empty room. In fact, it was the front room to the reference room.
It looked safe enough, so Elena called Donald.
"What's wrong, Elena?"
Donald literally came running. His guards followed him.
"Oh, there's a hole, Elena, are you in there?"
"Yes. There is nothing where we are. But there is another room ahead. I don't sense any magic, so I don't think there's any danger.
Donald is delighted to hear that.
"So I can come, too?"
"Yes, you can come."
"Yes, come." "Okay."
So Donald ordered his guards to hang a rope down into the hole.
"I'm going to go now, but keep watch. If we don't come back for too long, you'll have to make your own decision.
With these words, Donald disappeared into the hole.
