(EP-105.1) #1
105 – Backroom #1
“How is it?”
At Mirna Draco’s question, I pushed the wall harder.
Who knew how long it’d been since we’d been locked up in the boss room. Still, despite the repeated tries, there was no progress in escaping this place.
“Euuuut-.”
Mirna then tried pulling the door upwards, but it didn’t even budge a centiter.
“This is pissing off!”
Mirna kicked the door and said to .
“Commoner, let’s try together one last ti!”
Personally, I felt like it was a waste of ti. But since Mirna was adamant, I reluctantly complied, pulling the door up as hard as I could with her.
“Euuugh-.”
“Ugh, commoner! Pull harder!”
“I’m giving it my all!”
“Aren’t you a man, where’s your muscles…?!”
“…….”
And just like I expected, it was just a waste of ti and energy.
If Elga was here, it would be possible. But a Half-Nymph and a witch, both physically weak, had no chance.
─Paimon-!
Paaang!
Using magic on the door also did jack shi† nothing.
At this point, there was no other choice but to admit that Mirna and I were stuck here.
Shouldn’t boss rooms open after you defeat the boss? Wasn’t it like that in gas? What was this then?
What did you make this room for?
Was Solomon a buffoon!?
Was that the reason for his fall?
Slip-.
Mirna leaned against the wall and slipped down to the floor. After looking for a way to escape for so long, she was exhausted.
Then, after a while, she approached and grabbed by the shoulder as if she suddenly rembered sothing.
“Didn’t you say that you found this hidden place with your fairy senses? That ans you can find a gap or a secret device to escape from here, right?”
Mirna’s face was full of hope. She was like a thirsty traveler finding water in the middle of a big desert. Alas, contrary to her hopes, my conscience felt guiltier by the minute.
using ‘fairy senses’ was a lie I made up to escape the prior situation! I didn’t expect it to co back and haunt like this.
“Go find it, commoner!”
“…….”
“You’re not planning on making , Mirna Draco, sleep on this cold stone floor today, are you? I can’t sleep unless it’s my bed.”
“… I’ll try my best.”
In a way, Mirna got locked up in this room because of . So I ought to also get her out.
Seuk-.
So I got up from my seat and started looking for any sort of chanism. I tried putting my ear to the wall and tapping it, or pressing the bricks one by one.
Dokdok-.
However, I couldn’t find any escape route.
Then it occurred to . Could it be that there was so identification device which would activate with Solomon’s blood?
If I, who inherited Angmar’s blood, sprayed a few around, wouldn’t it seep into so device and open the door?
With that thought in mind, I pulled out my dagger and cut my finger lightly.
Seureuk-.
“Hieeek…!”
I accidentally scread. It hurted more than I thought it would. Mirna, who was resting on the floor, naturally heard this and was surprised.
“What’s going on? What happened?”
“No, it’s nothing…”
From the door, to the walls and floor, I dropped so blood everywhere.
However, unlike my optimism, the room remained unchanged.
In the end, I took a break and exhaustedly leaned against the wall.
I felt thirsty. Probably because of the combination of fatigue and tension after facing the boss, a delayed effect so to speak. Fortunately, there was so water bottle at the rest area earlier.
Gulp, gulp-.
After a few sips of fresh water, a coolness spreaded through my body, allowing to regain so energy. However, Mirna was frowning at .
“What are you doing now!?”
“… Drinking water?”
“You’re just going to waste such a precious resource like that!? You don’t know when the door will open, and you’re just drinking water carelessly!”
“Uh… Does Mirna-nim want so?”
“…….”
