　We have secured a watering hole.

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

　First, we replenished ourselves with drinking water, then we bathed and washed.

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

　We had not washed our bodies since entering this cave, so we all smelled a little.

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

　The women were still covering their smells with perfume, which was a great thing.

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

　I didn't even try that and just spread my sweaty smell all over the place.

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

　So I went to the watering hole to take a dip.

　I, the king, start off first, but when everyone starts fighting to have their backs washed, I summon a messenger and let him do it.

　I summon the skeletal warrior I had summoned from Klein's jar, and let him wash my back.

　It was strange to see the shaking bones rubbing my back with a sponge, but fortunately there were no onlookers, so I did not mind.

　Then Jeanne, who won in a rock-paper-scissors fight, enters.

　She takes a bath so quietly that the sound of the bucket can be heard in the windy air.

　On the other hand, it is this quietness that makes me imagine various things.

　The four of us had different ways of taking a bath, but once we were cleansed and refreshed, we were hungry.

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

　The food was not tasty, as this was a dungeon.

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

　This is because the foodstuffs they can bring with them are limited to preserved foods.

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

　So, we eat not the most luxurious food, but only Eve's hearty dishes.

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

　She turns even salty bacon and wieners for long-term preservation into a feast.

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

　She uses the saltiness of the pasta to create the best pasta dishes.

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

　The taste of her pasta is enough to make even Ryoma, who is used to eating good food in the maritime city, swoon.

"I will always be with my master.

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

　She only showed her loyalty to me.

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

　Ryoma is deeply disappointed, but I don't push him any further, and he tastes the pasta with the perfect amount of salt.

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

"But still, we dived so deep and didn't find any trace of your father..."

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

"Well, it would have been suspicious if a piece of his trousers had fallen off or a piece of his clothes had fallen off for all to see," he said.

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

"But is Ryoma-sama really here?　He may have already departed.

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

　Eve said.

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

"That's possible, but, well, the only clue is here. There is no other way but to go to the lowest level and find out.

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

　Ryoma says with a sigh, but an unexpected person interrupts.

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

　Jeanne, who had been eating pasta with all her heart, suddenly put down her fork and said with her eyes closed.

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

I just heard a sign from God. I don't know if Sakamoto Ryoma is here, but he said that the is here in the lowest level.

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

　Ryoma rolls his eyes at her pious attitude. She has never seen Jeanne, the saint.

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

"This blonde is a true saint. She can hear the word of God. So far her accuracy is 100 percent."

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

"Oh, blonde girl is amazing. I had no idea she was really a saint.

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

　Jeanne's chest heaves at these words, but it is something to be proud of.

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

　Her oracle has saved me many times.

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

　I am sure that she will continue to guide us in the future, or even today's oracle.

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

　I thought so.

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

　After the meal, we get into our sleeping bags and take a good rest.

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

　I guess we all realize that this is the critical point, and that we don't know what is waiting for us at the bottom of the mountain. As usual, there is no one fighting for my seat.

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

　Everyone quietly recovers their strength.

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

　The next morning, after eating the rest of last night's meal, we headed straight for the door of the lowest level.

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

　When we arrived at the lowest level, we found ourselves in a wilderness of desert.

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

　The bottom layer was a desert-like terrain.

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

　The only difference from a normal desert is that there is no daylight.

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

　The ceiling was also visible, making it seem somewhat empty.

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

　The lowest level was not as dark as one might expect.

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

　There were luminous insects on the ceiling, like a starry sky on a desert night.

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

　The light is not sufficient, however, so Eve pulls a torch out of her luggage.

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

　She takes the role of carrying it, saying that she is not a fighter.

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

　Thank you.

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

　I thank her and proceed to the bottom level.

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

"Of course not. I'm the king, after all. He can't stay in the dungeon all the time.

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

Oh...

Previous life?

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

I'm talking about this one.

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

　I try not to talk about my previous life with anyone except Eve.

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

　It is a common knowledge that anyone who tells you with a straight face that he or she has memories of a previous life is either a wonder child or a dangerous person.

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

　Ryoma's father is a Japanese, Sakamoto Ryoma, so he may be familiar with the concept of "reincarnation," but it is not exactly reincarnation, so the explanation is complicated.

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

　It is best to keep these secrets to yourself.

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

　Eve, who was watching this, was not sure if she knew about her previous life or not.

　Eve, who is watching this, smiles wryly, but then they are attacked by a big bat.

　The large bat is a type of monster often seen in dungeons, but not often seen until this level.

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

　The upper floor was illuminated, which might have been a difficult environment for the big bat.

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

　While I was thinking about this, a bat attacked Eve.

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

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

　This leaves me with no chance.

　Jeanne took five,

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

　Ryoma took three,

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

　It was like a bonus stage of a game in another world. I have never played this game myself, but I have seen it in the literature.

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

　I observed the game to see if there was a score displayed somewhere, but there were no numbers anywhere.

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

　I was relieved for some reason, but then I noticed something.

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

　I noticed that the large bat corpses piled up in a heap were moving.

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

　At first I suspected that Ryoma's pistol was too weak to kill it, but I was wrong.

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

"What is this?"
