He dives into the hole and falls down.

'Hi!'

　Just before she landed.
　I used gravity magic to fluff down, but Lara was meditating for a moment.

''Bi, you startled me!
Did you think you were going to hit the ground?
''Yeah ... why do Marise and Cynthia look like they're fine!

　Marise and Cynthia look the same as usual to Lara, who is holding her chest and catching her breath.

'It's Kurt. I thought he had something on his mind.
Cynthia too and I'm not afraid of heights...

　When they said that, Lara bobbed her hands in a panic.

Me too!　It's not that I don't trust Kurt, you know!　It's just ... human instinct, or maybe it's just a bit of a surprise...

　He was desperately trying to make a point.

　He's a cute guy.
　And it's not like I was offended by it either.

　I was just starting to feel a bit of mischief.
　I turned my back to Lara without responding to her.

"Hey, hey, Kurtwo!　Maybe you're angry!

　The reaction was as expected.
　I didn't say anything and walked straight to the back of the underground labyrinth.
　Marise and Cynthia follow silently.

"Kurt I'm sorry. It's not that I don't believe in Kurt. It's just........I've always been a bit of a coward.......

　Gradually, Lara's voice became quieter and quieter.
　When she turned around, she looked like she was about to start crying.
　Did I overdo it?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm not angry with you. It's my fault for not explaining anything to you.

　He pats Lara's head.

'Really?'

　Then she looked up at me and opened her little mouth.

''Oh, it's true. To make up for this, I'll grant Lara one wish when we get out of the underground labyrinth.
Well, I'm gonna have to have a parfait with Kurt.　I know a good place to eat!

　For a change, Lara's expression brightened up with a flash.
　I nodded willingly to her request.

''Lara, Lara. It's not fair!　I can't believe you asked me to do that in the middle of a sloppy mess!
"Cynthia wants to date Kurt too...

　Marise spat, and Cynthia waggled her fingers in envy.
　Why are we talking about dates and stuff?
　Well fine............................let's talk about this when we're on the ground again.

　More importantly.........

Both of you, keep your voices down. Looks like I've got a visitor ahead of me.
""What?"

　The three of them got a blank expression at the sound of my voice.

I'm going to put a cloaking spell on the three of them now. I'm going to approach those guys first and see what happens.

　And then I activate my magic.

　This prevents the first guest from recognizing our presence.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this as well.



　It was in front of the river in the layer (area).

''What should I do.....Brave man. I won't float after jumping into the river........''

　A woman looks anxiously at the river.
　It is a raging river.
　An unprepared and furthermore untrained person could drown in an instant.

'Jump in?　To me, it looks like I just stepped off and went into the river.
Yeah, yeah. Do you think you're going to help us?

　There were three women in front of the river, all three of them.
　The other two women were giving a stern look at the worried woman.

'But ... we can't just leave it like that, can we?
So why don't you go and get her?
..........
'If you can't go, don't say that. Since it's called "brave sir", I was going to let you ride on the ball, but it's useless if you die.
''Yes, yes. No matter how brave you are, Lord Brave, there's no way you could jump into this river and live.

　Hmm.
　I've gotten the gist of the situation.

　The women in front of the river seem to be part of the party that the brave man made up.
　However, the brave man who was said to be the strongest in history would drown...it's hard to imagine that he would drown.
　It's just too zany.

Forget about that, what are we going to do now?

　The women raise their voices.

'We can't go home alone!
Yes, I can't believe we're this deep in the woods!
After I fell into the pit earlier, I knew something was wrong.

　It seems that the brave man also used the "secret path" to get here.

　But what a surprise to find out about the existence of the "secret path" just now!
　I guess he's not a free man after all. But it's still not enough for me.

　Well, now we've got the information.

Let's get going.

　And I broke everyone's cloaking spell and appeared in front of those women.

　The three of them were startled by our sudden appearance, and their eyes widened.

Oh, what are you guys doing?
Where did they come from?
What you said before did she hear you?

　He repeated his voice.

'More on that later. Apparently the brave man jumped into the river.'

　I took my eyes off the women and recognized the river.

　Oh...I knew it.
　This is where it is.

Don't you want to come up?
'Yes, yes it's been about thirty minutes already, but...'

　They must have been having an ugly argument here for thirty minutes.
　I can't help but chuckle as I imagine the scene.

　But.

''You guys can go home. It's still the upper level of the underground labyrinth. Can you use shifting magic ... or do you want to follow me?

　When I asked that question, not a single woman moved her head.

　The magic contained within the women is not much of a stretch.
　It's not like they're going to be the same as Lara and the others.

　I sent the women to the entrance of the underground labyrinth with transference magic and then looked at the river again.

'Kurt, what are you going to do about it?'
What do you think he's up to?
You look like you've found something...

　Lara, Marise and Cynthia speak in turn.

'Mmm, you should watch closely,'

　Then I hold my hand over the river.
　Then a whirlpool occurs in a part of the river.
　The river gaps around it...just like the pit I saw earlier, the water has gone out.

'There's a pit down there.

　I use my levitation magic to make Lara and the others float and then come to the sky above the river where the hole(...) is empty.

"Oh, it's true. It's a big hole in the ground!
I didn't know this stuff existed...
'I was so distracted by the violent currents of the river I didn't understand...'

　The three of them were stunned.

''Perhaps the brave ones and the others headed down this hole.

　There was no other human reaction to this river except for us.
　So I wondered if........but it seems to be a bite.

''I guess it's a "secret path (secret) This hole.
Lara, you're right.

　Shall we head there?
　Is the reason why the brave man jumped into the river is because he found this 《Secret Path (Secret)》?
　Then there was no reason to leave the woman behind. I could only surmise that it was an accidental find.

'All right, you three, let's go.'

　I urged, and the three of them nodded in unison.
