Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Narcissist is pissed
Seiya palmed his face and sighed. He had expected this to happen.
However, thanks to Tiramy, they found a hidden key to open the door.
And just as they entered through the secret door, the gate behind them shut down again.
"MIII!!!"
"ROOOON!"
Seriously, Seiya was more annoyed with these assholes than this place. He wouldn't have to punch them to keep quiet if they could stop whining. Luckily, Isuzu was with them holding her muskets.
So they continued to walk.
Seiya would also be a little terrified if not for his Mental Resistance that repels outside dangers and eases the mind.
After proceeding for a time through the dark passageway, they came to a large hall: it was about the size of a school classroom, with a ceiling two stories up.
"A dead end, is that it?" Seiya wondered as he couldn't see an exit.
"There's a large door there, fumo."
Seiya didn't notice at first, but there was a massive door. It was decorated with sinister motifs and some glibrish writing while a devilish face could be seen too.
"What the hell is this...?" Seiya mumbled.
"It resembles ruins of the Schubert Empire. The face deeply sesembles that of one of their gods." Isuzu replied.
The Schubart Empire was one of the magical fairy realms, similar to where the rest of the Amagi residents came from.
"Schubart... I think I heard that name somewhere. Are they running some dark cult or something like an evil orginzation?" Seiya wasn't unfamiliar with these things with a bizarre name, an empire that worships such a devilish-looking god.
"Nah, they're just like us. Their main industries are forestry and farming, and they make a mean maitake mushroom tempura." Moffle replied.
"Anyway, we have to do something about this door first. Something like a hidden switch might work."
Just as Isuzu said so, a peal of laughter began to echo throughout the hall. It was a muffled, ominous sound, but it had little to no effect on Seiya. He was done with this kind of crap.
The idiot trio started to panic and scream, but Seiya hushed them.
It was then that the light flashed from the eyes of the demonic face.
[Guardian of the Door greets you]
[Foolish adventurers, since to dared to challenge this lybrith, stand in front of stone coffins!]
It was then that several stone coffins rose from the ground.
"It's awesome,-mii! We're on an adventure, baby!"
"I will give them some point for representation-fumo."
"I am getting the chills,-ron."
Seiya was already aware of this sh*t, so he was not questioning.
The coffins were engraved with some symbols: "Fire," "Wind," "Metal," "Earth," "Flowers," "Water," and "Lightning."
[Now follow your hearts and choose the coffins. The weapons will help you agaisnt the monsters!]
So for the next turn, Seiya chose 'Earth' as if it was closest to him while Isuzu picked 'Water' element since she is half kappa.
Moffle took 'Lightning,' Macaron chose 'Metal,' and Tiramy chose "Fire" despite being a flower fairy.
The remaining two elemnts were left.
The covers were slid open, and the group received different 'weapons.'
Moffle got a stun gun, Macaron a metal bat and Tiramii's received Molotov cocktails.
"Time to electrocute some monsters, fumo."
"Metal bat? Noice, ron."
"I will burn this dungeon, baby, mii!"
Meanwhile, Seiya got a shovel as a weapon.
He was not much worried. Failnaught and numerous weapons were resting in his Inventory that he could take out at any moment. However, he was glad that this attraction remained closed for years. Just thinking about the possible complaints made him shiver. The park would have closed a long ago.
On the other hand, Isuzu ended up with a jar containing liquid.
"Isuzu-chan, what's that?" Seiya asked.
"Well... It is labled as KY… What is that?"
Seiya was speechless. It was liquid that stimulated the lust during baby-making.
As a cultural person, he was aware of such products, and with having an artistic girlfriend, he was also aware of the brand.
He was convinced. Whoever was running this attraction is a pervert like these three idiots.
It might help him educate this innocent girl and train her as his future wife.
It was then the door bgan open, revealing a pathway.
Since they couldn't turn back, the only choice was to proceed forward. However, Seiya had a nagging feeling for some reason.
He knew that something was off, and this maze seemed dangerous.
"Hurry, hurry, fumo. We are getting late!"
"Then you shouldn't have come, idiot! And don't push me!" Seiya groaned.
"Aaaa, ron. I think I just stepped on something!"
"There's also a weird smell, mii... Like squid or something..."
A thin round blade cutter emerged from the wall and swept right above Macron and Tiramy before disappearing precisely in front of Seiya.
"Aaaaa..."
Had they been human height, they would have been decapitated!
"Wh-What... was that?" Seiya whispered weakly.
He barely avoided it, but he was sure he would be cut in half had the blade contracted him.
Moffle carefully investigated the wall. "Seems to be a trap, fumo. One rigged to go off when you stepped on a certain flagstone."
"No sh*t Sherlock! This thing could have killed us!"
"Yeah, it was a close call, fumo." Moffle's voice remained calm.
Seiya was astonished by Moffle's mild reaction. Still, he remembered that Moffle and the rest of these three mascots combated soldiers in fairy realm and knew how to act in these situations.
Moffle then began to order commands.
"We'll need to proceed with caution, fumo. ...Tiramy?"
"Mii?"
"You're our point man, fumo. Keep an eye out for traps. The minute you see one, warn us and disarm it."
"Got it, Moffle, mii."
"Macron, watch our backs, fumo."
"...Got it, ron."
"Isuzu, you stay in the middle, fumo. Guard the 'load.'"
The load was Seiya.
"Yes sir, General, sir." Isuzu pulled out her musket, grabbed Seiya's shoulder, and pulled him towards her.
While still confused, Seiya snapped out and spoke, "Hold on a minute, now. Set up ranks if you want to, but what did you mean by 'the load'? Was that supposed to be a reference to me?"
"Stop whining and do what I tell you, fumo," Moffle grumbled in annoyance.
"No, I won't let that one slide! This brilliant, Omni-talented, handsome Seiya Kanie will not be referred to as 'the load'! Especially not by a weird, surly rodent-like you!" Seiya screamed.
He might not have fought before them, but he was more substantial than these three idiotic trios. How dare he call Seiya a 'load'?!
"Geh... 'weird rodent,' fumo? I'm trying to keep you safe because we need you to run the park, fumo! Even though you're a smart-aleck brat!"
"I can keep myself safe! I'm telling you, I am stronger than you three of your ass combined—" Seiya took a step forward in anger and then heard something clack beneath his foot. "Er... was that a clack?"
Somewhere out of sight, a mechanism began roaring to life. A large machine had activated in the dark of the tunnel beyond.
"Kanie-kun, did you step on some trap, mii?!"
"I… Don't worry, I can easily defend-"
It was then that the whole corridor began rumbling. Then, out of the tunnel from which they had come, a huge boulder started rolling towards them, on a path to crush them all.
"Run, bit*ches, run!"
All they did for the next few minutes was scream and run.
Swarms of arrows shot out from the wall.
"Miiii!"
Holes opened up on the floor.
"Rooooon!"
The ceiling crashed down upon them.
"Moffu! Mooooooffu!"
There was no sense of coordination or teamwork. They ran, dodged, flailed, and avoided the various traps with truly miraculous timing.
"Kanie-kun. I recommend stopping for a time," Isuzu said to Seiya, who was jumping and ducking to avoid the many traps assailing her.
"Stand still?! Don't be ridiculous! How are we supposed to stand still when there are traps all aro—what?!"
A buzzsaw made a beeline for Isuzu and Seiya. After just barely dodging, Seiya staggered, then fell into the wall behind him. That triggered a giant spiked ball that roared through the air right for him.
"Oh, come on!" The spike ball was about to hit him, but he was ready to dodge it. He was already getting used to these traps, which were way lethal to be part of theme park attraction.
But just before the ball struck, Isuzu jumped in from the side and knocked Seiya out of the way.
"Isuzu?!"
He was confused. She didn't need to save him!
On the other hand, Isuzu would have been able to dodge it if not for one of the spikes had caught her jacket and thrown her roughly forward, sending her tumbling helplessly in the pit beneath it.
"Isuzu!!"
Seiya gritted his teeth and jumped to catch her, but the gap was already closed.
Seiya winded his eyes and clenched his grip.
Why? Why does she have to jump for her life?!
The loss of the girl hit him hard. He didn't know if she was safe or not, but the fact that he let her fall in front of him stunned him.
"Hey, get a hold of yourself. We need run now-fumo!" Moffle came to help Seiya. He knew that Seiya must have taken a hit looking at how close the teens were but to his surprise, Seiya was quiet.
Suddenly the air around them started to turn cold as Seiya got up.
"Is it me, or has it started to get cold-mii?"
"Yeah-Ron?"
"…"
Only Moffle was quiet. He saw a boulder rolling towards them, so he needed to drag Seiya, who was standing still, but he didn't want to go near him for some reason. He is afraid.
They all saw Seiya drawing some bow or harp with multiple strings.
He put his fingers on strings and pulled them, creating a sweet yet cold melody.
However, what stunned the three mascots was how the bolder turned into tiny pebbles as soon as it reached them.
It was then that Seiya turned around, and three mascots were able to see Seiya's face.
They had faced life-threatening traps, but neither of them scared them as much as Seiya did with that kind of expression.
They now know that the traps or this dungeon were no longer a threat but this high schooler named Seiya Kanie.
