Leave from the west gate of the fortified city of Kilket.

After an hour's walk through the Suzan Hills, the ruins of Earth appear.

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

Stone walls as tall as Burgess lie crumbled and strewn about.

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

The ruins of a once prosperous civilization are now nothing more than ruins inhabited by monsters and night robbers.

Big, big, treasure hunt!　Now it's really a treasure hunt!

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

Loloi could hardly contain his excitement.

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

Don't get too excited, Leroy. We have a long way to go.

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

I warned him as an elder.

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

Yes, it's a long way to go.

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

We had a long way to go.

The entrance to the third level of the Earth Ruins, which Ryan and his team had found, was not reachable in a day from Kilkenny.

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

For today, we could spend the night above ground. Or, we can go underground and continue as far as we can go.

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

We were going to make a flexible decision depending on our progress after this.

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

By the way.

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

What is the plan for that area? I had already informed Leroy and the others in detail at the meeting.

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

And.

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

Since the progress was faster than expected, we decided to go underground to the ruins.

Keep the sun in your eyes. If you don't ...... it, you'll never see it again.

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

I've already burned it in my eyes, so let's get going!"

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

As he was saying this, Loloi quickly entered the basement of the ruins.

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

Loloi, don't go ahead by yourself.

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

Burgess followed him.

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

Chris stared at the sun that was slanting to the west for a while.

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

Chris did not need to go along with such a life-threatening search for the ruins.

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

Loloi is on a treasure hunt of his own volition.

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

Burgess, who said he was going on his own.

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

And I'm working for Burgess.

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

But Chris...

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

I just happened to be partying with Burgess.

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

There was no need for me to go to a place where I had to leave the Kizuna Stone with my immediate family.

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

I need mana. I need mana, and I need more than half a mana. I can earn gungan mana by following old man Burgess. If I can earn more and more mana from the treasure hunt, I'll go, even if I have to risk my life.

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

Saying this, Chris proceeded into the ruins.

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

Many adventurers make earning mana their purpose in life.

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

They use it to live in luxury or to get what they want.

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

Chris seemed to have his own reasons.

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

I don't think it's a problem I should get involved in," he said.

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

I want to earn mana as much as he does.

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

I muttered to myself and followed the others into the dimly lit basement of the ruins.

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

My savings.

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

Because I had provided the materials for the treasure hunt, I had once again fallen short of my goal of 100,000 mana for the purchase of the wagons.

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

But if this archaeological site search (Treasure Hunt) is successful, there should be a small amount backed up.

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

And even if it failed.

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

If Burgess is still alive, he will receive a reward of "800 mana x number of days" from Burgess for carrying the luggage.

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

Also, if there is extra food in the warehouse.

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

With that, we can live for quite a few days with no food expenses.

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

Besides, if Chris is alive.

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

We may be able to rent a corner of an orphanage from now on like Burgess and float the cost of an inn.

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

Also, if Loloi is still alive.

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

If we could talk him into it, we might be able to hire him as an escort at a very low cost. Then he might be able to peddle his wares between Kilket and the towns to the east, west, south, and north.

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

Even if I fall down, I'm not going to get up for free, you know.

Burgess in front.

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

Loloi and Chris in the back.

Forming a formation with me in the center.

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

While the party members were desperately killing monsters.

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

I kept repeating this simulation.

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

Albus, look out!

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

That was the moment I heard Chris's shout.

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

A stone thrown by a goblin snagged me on the cheek.

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

It hit the wall behind me and shattered.

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

Don't be dawdling!　If you, our guide, die, we won't know the way!

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

Yes, sir!　Albus!　Be careful!"

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

Oh, no.

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

This was not Ryan's party, where the strongest members of both offense and defense were all here.

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

Even if they thought they were in a safe zone, it was no wonder that the formation could be broken through by monsters at any moment.

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

There were no heroes or great magicians who could annihilate all the strong enemies almost instantly.

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

There are no beastmen or warriors to protect the non-combatants.

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

There are no support sorcerers who can handle defensive magic, and no saints who can repair most wounds as long as they are alive.

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

I changed my mind a bit and decided to focus on the action at hand.
