A pyramidal structure built in the middle of the desert.
Triangular when viewed from the side.
A pyramid.

The entrance is ...... here.

After walking halfway around the pyramid, I finally found a place where I could enter. There is a door, at least.

No traps. Prine, we're going in.
Yes, yes!

I held my anxious partner's hand and nodded, "It's all right.

He opened the door.

Inside was a huge space. It was spacious and did not feel like a labyrinth.

I thought it would be smaller than this.
Yes, that's right.

Using the "Detect" sheaf skill, we cautiously enter.
There does not seem to be any kind of lighting, but it is very bright. The lighting must have been good.
The coffins here and there are still creepy, though.

The pyramids are not so fake, are they?
'Oh my God, Ra! How is that possible?

I made a light remark, and Prine giggled. Good, good. I feel a little more relaxed now.

The front of the building is lined with large pillars that go all the way to the back. There were many doors on either side. I have no idea where they lead.

Hmm, stop for a second.
'Yes, stop.

He calls out to Prine and stops.
The map I had made as soon as I descended to the twelfth floor did not show the inside of the pyramid. It may have been a matter of scale.
But now that we are inside...

'--"Mapping".

Take out a waterproof bag from your bag. Inside is a bundle of paper and a pen that I bought beforehand. Holding them in his hand, he activates his skill.

Sha-sha, kari-kari.

My hand semi-automatically draws a map on the paper. The detailed structure of the pyramid is described,

'n......'

The hand stops with a snap. But the mapping is still in progress. I take out a second sheet of paper. The pen starts moving again.

There are two sheets. I've never done this before. ......
'No, not yet.

I say to the astonished Prine.
The pen finally stops when I've drawn the third sheet of the map.

'Amazing ......!
'But it's weird. But it's weird. Look, look. None of the three are connected. They're all independent. How do you get from the first one to the second one ......?'
'......, by any chance?

Prine, who had been looking at the three maps, moved his hand. She holds one of the maps in my hands and spreads the other two out below.

I see.

So you are saying that the twelfth layer has three layers?

Prine nodded.

'It must be one floor with several levels, like the tower in the eighth level.
That's what I'm talking about, Prine. I love your cleverness.

I meant it lightly, but Prine's face turned bright red.

Huh? Eh, heh, heh, I didn't know you liked me like that. ....... Um, I love you too, Ra-kun,......?'
'Oh, oh ....... I'm so happy......'
'Yeah. ......'

We are both embarrassed. I glanced at Prine and saw my lover smiling at me with dyed cheeks and it was so cute that I kissed her.

I kissed her.
'nn......'

Bending at the waist, I place my own on Prine's lips. The little girl responded by stretching her back as much as she could. A very soft touch was born at the tip of my mouth.

What are they doing at the entrance of the pyramid?

--I guess they must have thought. In the dungeon.
My Thief skills suddenly alerted me,

Gogol .......
You'd think there was an earth tremor,

--Boom.

What?
What?

The floor was cut in half.
It was a pit.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
'Hyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

--Why did this trap suddenly appear just a moment ago when it was nowhere to be found, you dungeon bug!

'--Deeee!

He grabs Prine's hand with his right hand and kicks it to the side with his left foot.
With a "bang," my foot pierced the wall and I came to a stop with a thud.
Stones and sand fall far downward.

Noooooooo, that's ......!
'Hyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!'

Stopped in mid-air with his foot wedged into the wall. I managed to save myself.



'Hyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
'Oh, Prine. Calm down. It's all right now.

He calls out to Prine, who is in a state of panic.

'Huh! Laaa, that's just a foot! Now you're just stopping at your feet! Are you okay with that?
'I can afford it. Plane level is going up like crazy. The martial artist level is getting higher. It doesn't hurt or weigh anything. Your body is as light as a feather. I could sleep like this.
'Hyah ...... amazing ......!

I lift Prine up and hold her in my arms.

'Climbing up like this would be easy, but didn't you learn some magic that's perfect for this kind of thing?
'Huh ......? Ah!
'Since you're here, why don't you try it?'
'Yes, I will! ...... ehehe'
''What's wrong?''
'I'm glad that Ra-kun remembers me, even the magic I learned.
'I love Prine. You can kiss me.'
'Oh my god, Ra-kun. --Oh, my God, Ra...

Yay.
A beautiful girl with a shy face gave me a kiss.
Well...

'If we do this too much, the whole wall might collapse this time, so let's go climb it.
Yes!

Prine cast a spell.

Photon Wing!

The surrounding magical elements glow with color and converge on Prine's back. It eventually formed like wings.

Prine's body floats softly.
Yes, it is literally the magic of flying.

I'm floating, Ra-kun!
'I thought I should have tried it when I learned it, but I guess I needn't worry about that.
'Yes, Mr. Ra! Hold on!
'No, I don't think you can carry me. ............ look.'
'Aaah!

I reached for the prine, put a little weight on it, and it almost fell right off.

'That's the magic that makes you fly, isn't it? It's not like your muscle strength or anything has increased. ......'
'I see. ......'

Prine hangs her head in disappointment. That face is cute, too.

'Well, let's climb.

I said, and I climbed up the wall. There are only a few clues, but if you don't have any, you can make one. I punch a hole in the wall, hook my hand through it, and climb up.

Prine is floating and looking at me with a 'wow' look.

Ra-kun is becoming more and more awesome. ....... He was great to begin with, but now he's really great.
'Yo, job well done! It's thanks to God! You're flying, too.
I see. ....... Yeah. Thanks to Job, God, and Rah-kun!
'I guess that makes two of us! --And, summit successful!
'Yeah!

Climbing to the edge of the cracked pit, we pause with gusto.
High-five with Prine as she comes down.

Then, something caught my "detection".
I tell my partner.

Prine. It's a monster.
'Whew! Where is it?
'There.'

I pointed to the coffin on the right side of the plinth, and it opened at about the same time.
A zombie with bandages all over his body emerged from inside. One.
I stand in front of Prine.

The mummy man.
Whoa, whoa!
'I heard he's going to wrap you up in bandages, that guy.
'Hi,hiii ......'

Prine is scared.
Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen a zombie before.
Suddenly, I imagine Prine (naked, for some reason) wrapped in bandages for a moment, and - oh, Ra, I can't untie you, please help me - I quickly shake it off. This fantasy is too dangerous.

'Shaaaaaaaaa......!
'Tei'.
'......shaaaaaaaaaaa..................'

Me, who shatters the mummy man with one punch as he spreads his hands wide and threatens me.
I'm kind of sorry, but I'm no match for him.

I'm sorry, but I'm no match for him.

She hugged me from behind, and I apologized in my mind for my weird fantasy.

'Come on, come on, let's move on.
Yes!

He forgets his worries and takes out a map. The first one--this floor.

For the time being... There are twenty-four treasure chests on this floor.


'That's a lot!
'I'll take it from every side!
'Yes!



Let's conclude.
They were all mimics.



'................... f*ck God'.
'No, no, no, Mr. Ra! No f*cking! I'm going to be pissed!
'Thanks to Prine's magic, I didn't have to open it, but ...... all of it? ......'
'Ha-ha-ha, that happens sometimes.

I sagged, and Prine patted my head.
It's the opposite of what I usually see.

Prine.
'Yes?'
'Pet me more.'
'Yes. I'm sorry, Ra. You did your best.

He patted me like a good boy, good boy, good boy, good boy, good boy.
I felt that I could jump into the chest like this, but I felt that the dungeon would not allow it. I would be in a terrible panic if the bug happened again.
I mean, what kind of dungeon causes a bug out of jealousy?

I pulled out the map.

The first one is this floor. I didn't see any stairs to the top.
'I wonder how to get there. ...... I think I kind of know.'
'I think I know what you mean. Well, whatever. Let's go to the second one.
'There were no stairs to go down, were there? That means ......'

We both look at the entrance.
There was a pit that had been opened up.

That's it.
Is it that one?
