76-Chapter 36: Into the Tomb Family
Chapter 36: Deepening the Sime Family
GG3
Since none of the nearby people were intentionally using any stealth abilities and my little map had the other side's location shown on it. Quickly, I took advantage of the gaps in their movements to quickly move through the house.
Of course, although I said I'd find someone to ask, I didn't dare to directly attack and then force him to tell me what he knew, after all, the other party was quite a bit higher than me.
But finding what they're carrying and then eavesdropping on their conversation or something isn't that hard.
There was still a lot of space on this floor, and from a distance, on the other side of the floor, the Sime Tomb father and daughter were inside a room, probably studying the sketches I left behind.
A few maids, on the other hand, had just finished packing up the things on the table, and were then moving collectively to a room.
I quickly followed, gently pushing open the door to a room next to them and quickly ducked inside.
It appeared to be a material room, and the room was filled with all sorts of vegetables and fruits.
There was also a door bubbling with cold air next to it, it should be a place for storing meat.
It's not surprising, after all, an ice magic stone is all that's needed to turn a room into a freezer, which has little to do with the freezer in our world.
"Who do you think the lady brought back as a guest today?"
"Didn't you hear the Master? That guy beat the lady this morning on top of that yearbook tournament."
"The grade school tournament? The kind of game that's used to show off and go through the motions?"
"Not really, but too many restrictions are not good for Miss."
"That's right, if you can use 'Soul Giving', no one in this academy would be a match for Miss at all, right?"
"Ohhhh, that's right~"
I see. So that's not all he can do? But what is that thing called 'soul-giving'? Could it be that it was some legendary artifact or something.
But no matter what, these maids didn't even have any strange comments when they were chatting in private, but they were all clearly members of an organization called 'Sunset'.
This was unscientific, could it be that this 'Sunset' was still a maid dispatching company? But why is the job setting actually slayer and assassin, and is it really so hard for a maid to pick a job as a normal maid?
"I'm going to go put the rest of the stuff back in storage, so wait a minute guys."
Suddenly, I heard someone among them say that.
The corner of my mouth twitched.
No shit? I think this is the warehouse. Are you coming over here?
But this room is nothing but food, so there's no place to hide.
And there's a magic ban on the window, so if you open it, you'll be digging your own grave, right?
Sweeping around the room, I ended up dropping my eyes above the doorway of the next freezer.
Well, it'll have to do....
Pulling the door open and walking in, I found a corner then wrapped myself up in an ice castle.
This ice magic stone was really something, even someone like me who was used to freezing felt cold.
Fortunately, my tolerance for ice is still quite high, otherwise I definitely wouldn't be able to withstand something like this.
Soon after, I saw a maid enter the warehouse. First, she walked around outside, then pushed open the freezer door and came in.
"Strange, why is the freezer door unlocked, really..."
........
You're kidding, aren't you? You locked the freezer door?
Before I could protest, I heard a click from the door. I disarmed the ice castle and walked over to it, but the door couldn't be pushed anymore.
Oh my god, is there a mistake, you actually locked it?
Even if I'm an ice wizard, I could still die from ice, okay?
It's not a snide joke that an ice wizard gets iced to death, and it will definitely happen if I don't find a way to leave within an hour.
Being iced to death... should also bring them back to life in the graveyard, right?
But that's not a good thing!
No, we have to find a way out of here.
Looking around the room, the entire room was surrounded by all kinds of meats. If you looked carefully you could also see the categories of different meats.
Unlike the room outside, this room didn't have a window, probably designed to completely insulate the air conditioning.
When I touched the floor, it was actually made of a single metal plate with no cuts at all, while the ceiling looked like it was connected one to the other, but I couldn't find a place to knock it open.
Shit, shit, what do we do about this?
Is it only possible to jump out with a flicker again? Jump back in the toilet?
Did I already set up the toilet as a resurrection point? Reappear at the resurrection point every time you fail?
It's not a snarky joke, really....
I had no choice but to start slowly recalling the toilet in my head, ready to start flashing....
Wait a minute!
The moment I closed my eyes, I seemed to feel that the cold air coming out of the ice magic stone wasn't flowing around the room.
Rather, it was flowing in one direction at a very slow speed!
Are there any magic-absorbing devices around here? Or rather....
What other exits are there?
I feel the direction of this ice elemental flow, and then....
Walked up to a piece of meat.
Well, it's a piece of beef to be precise, still thinking of premium ingredients from the top of the grain.
Of course, that wasn't the point, the point was what else was behind this piece of meat.
"Ice cone!"
I casually summoned an ice pick and inserted it into the gap between the meat and the wall behind it.
Grandpa Archimedes had told us once that given a fulcrum I could warp the earth, so warping a piece of meat shouldn't be that hard.
But...the ice pick snapped.
Holy shit, don't take that, are you really forcing me?
"Rapidly scorching!"
Fire low level magic, but I haven't found any other use for it other than to cook supper.
But now to practical, in no time the connection of the meat to the wall melted and I was able to remove the meat easily.
"Oh my god..."
Behind the meat is actually a ventilation duct entrance!
"The sky is not falling!"
