At the bottom of the vertical hole was a series of horizontal holes.
　According to Isabelle, that's where they came from, but they didn't come to the bottom of the pit willingly.

　She wasn't running away, but rather she was trying to avoid the attack, and because of the small space, she had no choice but to retreat and ended up there.
　From Isabel's point of view, it seems she was quite unwilling to do so.

　As soon as I stepped into the hole, I realized that Isabelle's words were not a lie.
　The demon had been cut in half by Allen, but you could still get a rough estimate of its size from its condition.
　The hole was just large enough for the demon to get in, so if you wanted to avoid the attack here, you'd have to retreat.

　And the marks of the attack are also firmly carved into the ground of the hole.
　You're going to be able to have a great deal of fun with your own personal computer.
　It's a good thing that you're not a braggart.

　I'm sure it's a good thing that the gift was disabled, considering that it was because the gift was disabled that they escaped over there, and it was only because they heard the sound that they were able to help Allen in time.
　Although he is basically a respectable village chief, he is still a troubled man.

　That said, Milene is an Amazoness who doesn't seem like an Amazoness.
　I'm not good at fighting, and I don't like it.
　I'm willing to fight if necessary, but I don't want to fight if I don't have to.
　I don't think I am worthy of Amazoness, who prizes fighting above all else.

　But if you think it's because of that that I think Isabelle is in trouble, it's not so.
　You will be able to see that it's the same for Chloe as well, because she let out a sigh while looking at Isabelle sideways.
　It seems that among the Amazons, Isabelle was too much of a fighter.

　And while thinking about that, I thought about Chloe at the same time.
　Earlier she was part of the conversation, but after she finished talking about our situation, she became downcast again and spoke less and less.
　It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

　Now that we've met up with Isabelle, we know we're all trapped here, and if we keep going, we'll be able to help.
　I'm sure you won't have to worry about it anymore. ...... Is there something else you're concerned about?

　It seems like you're brooding over it, and if something is bothering you, you can talk to me about it.

The ability to make everyone you touch invisible is a handy thing to have in your hands. It shows that we were right in our assessment of the situation.

　And for a moment, Milene did not know to whom the words were directed.
　It was partly because she was focused on Chloe, but also because she hadn't expected such a thing from Isabelle.

　As Isabelle said herself, she was a fierce fighter who had the strongest arm in her home village.
　The way she was held in high esteem by everyone was a dream of the village's children.

　Milene, on the other hand, was the opposite of Isabelle and was the weakest person in the village.
　You're going to be able to find out what you're going to do with it.

"Hmm?　The way you put it, it sounds like you've always approved of Milene?
"Hmm?　Isn't it obvious?　There was no one in the village that I wouldn't recognize in the first place, but of all the people at ......, Milene was the most outstanding. It was the poorest of the village, after all.
Did you admit that you were the poorest?　It feels like the opposite: ......
Okay, that's right. She's the weakest, her personality is not suited for Amazoness, and her gifts are not like the ones we have. But she was still with us.　How could I not admit that?

　The line of troops advancing through the side-hole is the same as before, partly because of its width.
　But Isabelle is in between Chloe and Henriette, and, incidentally, Isabelle is a head taller than Chloe.
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're going to do with it.

I see, you have the guts. But what do you mean by "look"?
"We didn't really know what her gift was at the time, because we weren't very smart. We're not very smart, after all.
"Really?　I've heard from Milene that they were all very smart,
The first thing that comes to mind when you say you're not smart is that you're not smart enough. To be more precise, should we say that you don't have the energy to use your mind outside of combat?
I see, so an idiot is an idiot, but a combat idiot.
That's what it's all about. It's a good thing," he said, "that's how it is. It's a good thing that you're able to have a good idea of what you're looking for. So we thought. You're going to be able to find out that this girl's talent just hasn't blossomed yet, but she'll be able to do great things in time. And that's why we hid her from the demons when they attacked.
"Hidden?　Well, was Milene the only one caught with a different mouth?
"We know how we are viewed by others, and it's not wrong. So when we flail about, you don't think anyone is hiding, do you?　Well, it looks like they got caught after all ...... but they were able to use their awesome powers to come to our rescue. I'm not crazy about it, right?

　Honestly, it was just overrated, but I don't feel bad about it, of course.

　And ...... until now, I only thought that Milene was told to hide at that time because she was powerless and useless.
　I had no idea that they thought of me that way.

　If I had known, ...... or maybe there would be a different now.
　But whether it would have been a better future than the present is another story.

　If I had known that, I probably wouldn't have gotten caught by the devil and become desperate, but I also feel like I would have found Allen and his friends precisely because I was desperate and powerless.
　If I hadn't met them, I don't know how I would be doing now, or I would have died already.
　Or maybe I wouldn't have been able to come to their aid.

　Still, it seems as if Allen and the others could have done something about it, but that's it.
　What's important is that I can be a part of your rescue.

　I've given them a lot of trouble and help.
　Even if they'd given me credit, that's still a fact.



　That's why, this time, I'm going to help everyone.
　One of them is ...... and of course Chloe is in it.

　I'm still not sure what she's thinking.
　While we talk like this, she still doesn't even come into the conversation.

　But I still know I'm in trouble.
　Then that was enough.

　That's still how it feels for now.
　But when Chloe asks for help at ...... or when she really needs it, that's when I will be able to help her.
　That's when you'll be able to help, while remaining prepared and determined.

　You're going to have to help everyone who is being held captive first," she said, squinting at the seemingly endless recesses of the hole.
