　Yuril, whose ear tips are dyed red, puts his hand over his mouth and lets out a small tearful cry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He must have been deeply moved by the fact that he had been watching over them closely for several decades.

"Now that you mention it, I don't see any miasma holes anywhere..."

"Kugase, you know what's strange about the walls, don't you? Sniff them quickly!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Don't treat people like dogs!　Besides, I don't know how thick this room is."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kugase lifts the corner of his forehead as he complains back, and looks around the walls on all sides.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Finally, he turns his attention to the throne on which the black skeleton was sitting, and notices an indentation the size of a human head above it.

　The girl ponders for a moment and then suddenly claps her fists together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmmm, you may have fooled me with my horns, but you couldn't fool this clear-headed girl!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I think that's a keyhole. It looks just like the hole you insert the key into on a skeleton.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But it's so big, Lili. Oh, yeah!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. If it's the right bone, you'll find it lying right there."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Why are you telling me all this?　I was just about to tell you!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ignoring Kugase, who is still stomping his feet, the twins pick up the head of the labyrinth master who has just been knocked down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Luckily, there seems to be no missing parts on the disfigured skull.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nodding to each other, the twins approach the throne room in the back, still holding the black bone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just as they are about to insert the skull into the hole in the wall, a voice comes from behind them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Wait a minute!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The voice was Thor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sora was on his right hand, Yuril was clinging to his left, and Mu was hanging from the back of his neck.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What, do you want to do it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I just need to move around a little. Okay, good."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor, who had moved with the three to the wall, glanced toward the center of the room and nodded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kikiriri's head twitches at this unfamiliar action, but his curiosity gets the better of him and he presses the skeleton against the hole in the wall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The black skull fits snugly into the wall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it does not move from there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The twins turn their heads to see if there is any change, but their eyes are wide as if in unison.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A large hole has appeared in the center of the room, where Thor and his friends were standing just a moment ago.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What is this!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The floor suddenly fell out!　Pops, that was a close call."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kikiriri and Kugase rush to the hole, shouting loudly, but when they look inside, they shout again in unison.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What is this?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps intrigued by the sound of his voice, Sora, who had removed his hand from Thor, also approached the hole.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She is just as surprised as Thor and Thora at what she sees inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Wow!　This is amazing!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The hole is about five paces wide and deep enough for several adults.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The walls are not uneven at all, and the hole is cut vertically.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The problem is the bottom of the hole.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What we saw there was a burning, bright red pool of lava.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was boiling, and the tremendous heat could be felt all the way to the top of the hole.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The twins and Kugase commented to each other as the air seared their faces.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If we fall in, we won't survive for sure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Isn't this a trap, even if it isn't!　If you were standing here, you'd be drowned for sure."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're a real piece of shit, right up to the last minute."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps I had guessed wrong, Rummella mumbled with a troubled look on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So, the big noxious hole is nowhere to be found ...... after all."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, there is. Look, there it is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor's voice and his lifted finger caused everyone to look up overhead in unison.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The sight on the ceiling made them speechless with amazement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Before they knew it, the black haze that had been layered on top of each other had faded away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Instead, what emerged from the depths was a pitch-black fountain that stretched across the ceiling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Strangely enough, the quiet surface of the water defied gravity and did not seem to drip down to us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is that...?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ah, you've been hiding in the most unexpected places."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had imagined that the miasma was leaking from the holes in the ground, but it could be said that this was a way of hiding the miasma by taking advantage of it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Perhaps it was a device to make the black shadow-like tent disappear when it was exposed to the heat of the lava.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I really didn't expect to see it on my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It was a surprise."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"How do you seal it?　Mr. Lam, can you reach me?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The water girl's lips lifted gently at Sola's question.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She then held up her hands as if holding them out above her head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The bitter waters of grief, your new home. Now go. Release me at once!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At the same time as she cried out, drops of water welled up in both of Rummella's eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They looked just like tears, but the color was clearly different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The clear blue liquid flowed out of the girl's two eyes, one after the other, and then they seemed to be sucked into the sky.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blue tears reach the black fountain on the ceiling and immediately spread to the surface.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor and the others continued to gaze at the fantastic sight of the black surface of the water being covered with blue, as if mesmerized.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Soon the last drop is squeezed out of Rummella's eye and sucked into the fountain above her head to form a crown of drops.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The moment the miasma is completely contained, Thor's back relaxes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He sits down on the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Are you all right?　Thor-chan."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, I'm just a little out of it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Congratulations again, Thor and Rummella."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Rummella bows her head deeply at Yuril's congratulatory words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her eyes were filled with genuine tears, which were already streaming down her cheeks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The girl's tears must have been the trigger that brought back to everyone's mind all the unspeakable hardships they had gone through.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Just as they were about to be soaked in the joy of being released from the situation, a loud voice rang out in the room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Now, now, here you go. Let the celebration begin!　Come in, come in, come in."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was Barconia with a mug in his hand who was shouting out a cheerful call that seemed to ruin the atmosphere.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He handed the sake cups filled with waves of black barley wine to his stunned companions one after another.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We also have some fire wine and honey wine. We also have some old cask wine, if you have a little. Oh, we have some apple water for Mumu and Sora. Yes, gentlemen! Then, Master Thor, please.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, yeah. Well, to victory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"To victory!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Cheers!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

To our new land!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"To our brothers and sisters who have led us here!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor and the others raise and tilt their cups as they shout.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then Razzel appears with a large boiling pot in his arms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The delicious smell of the pot immediately arouses Sora's reaction.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ah, this is the pot I've been hearing about for a while!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, it's the feast you've been waiting for. This is a traditional Zuma flame pot. I'd like to explain the various aspects of it, but I think it would be quicker if you try it first.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Barconia removes the lid from the pot with these words, but Moe and Kugase, who look into the pot with great vigor, are disappointed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There's nothing in it!　It's just soup stock, isn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Moo, you tricked me. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's not funny. Shall we hang him up and shave his beard and hair?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, I got it. I'll pull every last one of them out."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, calm down. Now, now. Please, Mr. Raszel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In response to the call, Rassel steps forward again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In his hand was a knife as thin as a willow leaf and a delicious-looking piece of meat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The swordsman lifted up the meat and suddenly ran the knife just past the meat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Immediately, the thinly stripped piece of meat swam in the air and landed in the pot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Barconia picks it up with his chopsticks, lets it swim in the pot a few times, and then easily pulls it up onto a plate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Here, it's ready. There are two kinds of sauce: one with ground sesame seeds and the other with a squeeze of green yuzu. Please put whichever you like.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, is it cooked properly?　You should cook it more thoroughly."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's all right. Come on, let's take a bite.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mmm, what's this?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yum!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's so soft!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Pops, more, please!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Barconia nodded his head while tugging at his mustache.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We've prepared plenty of vegetables. Just a quick dip in them will give you a surprisingly delicious taste.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can I have that one, please?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I want vegetables, too. Hurry up!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor smiled knowingly at the sight of everyone gathered around the pot, making a big fuss.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then Sora, with a small plate of meat piled high, comes up to him with a happy look on her face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Here you go, Thor! Ahhh..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, thank you. I'll have some."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thor opened his mouth open, and Sola rolled her eyes, then hurriedly lifted up the meat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After watching him chew and swallow a few times, the girl asked him happily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Is it good, Thor?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, it's the best I've ever tasted."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sola looked up with a big smile on her childhood friend's face as she nodded in agreement.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She looked up at her childhood friend with a big smile on her face, noticing Thor's tense expression hidden behind it.
