After descending down the stairs and into the room, a girl was there.
One look and she looked like a young girl around the age of 14~15 years old, which is similar to Alice.
Her hair was so long that it spread around the floor; her clothes had a [traditional]——- Closely resembling clothes of the 10th century of the Heian period.
That was the impression that she gave.
[Are you perhaps, Plumbum?] (Ryouta)
[A human….. Are you here to trick me again?] (Plumbum)
This girl—— Is for sure the spirit Plumbum based on the location, however her stare of me was that of hostility.
But, at least I know one thing.
She did not deliberately remove the monsters to spite me.
But she did it because she wants to reject humans in general.
[Trick? Did humans did something to you in the past?] (Ryouta)
[Are you feigning ignorance?] (Plumbum)
She raised her hands.
And at that moment, a strong force pushed me.
I used my arms to guard against it—–However.
[Ughh!!] (Ryouta)
My entire body was struck with pain.
When I look closely, a fish type monster that exists in Plumbum appeared out of nowhere and started attacking me.
[Wait a minute! I just want to talk—–] (Ryouta)
[Leave! I have no need to speak with a human!] (Plumbum)
Plumbum who was enraged, raised her hands up again.
It’s the second wave of her attack, and in a second, I saw what was surrounding me.
Countless monsters were surrounding me.
Hurriedly, I stomped the ground and jumped behind me, then taking out my revolvers, I loaded it with Growth and Normal Bullets and started firing.
The monsters who were hit, dropped and died.
[You’ve done it…..] (Plumbum)
[Kuh!] (Ryouta)
There’s no point in doing this.
I switched to my special bullets and fired.
What I used was the Restraint Bullets, which I fired towards Plumbum.
Plumbum who couldn’t move further filled her rage as she stared at me angrily.
She really have a strong sense of rejection towards me.
Normally I would ask what’s the matter, but with that kind of eyes….
[What happened? I’ll listen. Maybe I can help with the troubles that you have.] (Ryouta)
[Such a ridiculous human, no matter how good of a listener you are, eventually, you will betray me like all the other humans.] (Plumbum)
[…… You’ve been betrayed?] (Ryouta)
[That’s right!] (Plumbum)
She shouted as her eyes were in flames.
[Then, let me at least listen to your story.] (Ryouta)
[…….. Very well. If you really want to hear it, I shall grant you your wish of listening to the crimes of what you humans did.] (Plumbum)
Still staring at me with anger, she eventually started talking.
[Once, there came a man. A strong and brave man.] (Plumbum)
I guess she’s describing a veteran adventurer.
[That was the first time I came into contact with a human. That man talked about what humans are, and what they do. He taught me things that I never knew about. To return the favour, I gave him powers that can only be used in Plumbum, only for him.] (Plumbum)
So he was given the name.
[The man said that he wanted to go back first.] (Plumbum)
Huh?
The story….. Suddenly took a turn?
[He said that he shall come back. He promised that he will. Believing in his words, I waited for his return——- However!] (Plumbum)
The enraged Plumbum raised her voice as she continued.
[That man did not return at all. He used the powers that I’ve granted to him, but never once did he——- Yes, even after he died.] (Plumbum)
[……. So he recently passed away.] (Ryouta)
[Yes. Thus, he has returned the power back to me. So human, do you understand now? Humans will easily break promises, betray if necessary.] (Plumbum)
[That, you’re wrong.] (Ryouta)
[What is wrong about it!] (Plumbum)
[It is not that he did not want to return, but it’s that he couldn’t. It is incredibly difficult to get here.] (Ryouta)
[That is nonsense! That man said that he [Came here normally].] (Plumbum)
[He is just not aware about the luck he——] (Ryouta)
[Then he shouldn’t have said it!] (Plumbum)
Plumbum became even more fumed.
I wasn’t lying to her, but that made it worse.
[Even if that person were to do that, I wouldn’t do such a thing. To absolutely say——] (Ryouta)
[I would not be lied to for a second time, human!] (Plumbum)
Plumbum raised her hands once more.
I readied myself. But instead of a monster flying towards me, it was the Turtle that appeared in front of her.
[Repetition!] (Ryouta)
Since I’ve defeated that once, it was easy——– And it didn’t work.
Looking closer at it, the shell had a different colour. So a different monster.
However, the ability is similar.
The only difference is that it’s faster than the previous Turtle by about 1 second in duplicating.
I fired my revolvers to eventually break its shell once more.
I didn’t stop—— but then suddenly.
A stairs appeared in front of me.
The staircase returning to the top appeared from the turtle.
[Disappear at once, human!] (Plumbum)
[———!] (Ryouta)
Since Repetition didn’t work, and it was incredibly tough, it takes around 5 times the speed to defeat it.
Biting my teeth, I knew what had to be done, as I ran up the stairs that Plumbum made.
When I went up, I was outside the dungeon.
Phew…… Let’s think up of measures for the time being.
Thinking about it, I turned my back away from the dungeon—– But.
[…….] (Ryouta)
I stopped and pondered.
I turned around and stared at the dungeon.
That is….. I can’t.
Plumbum has been betrayed by humans.
If I went away right now, she’ll think that [See, I knew it.].
If I don’t head down, I won’t meet her.
I have to get her to understand.
Hence I went back into the dungeon.
I went straight down to the last floor.
With the only 2 Goats Milk left, and one being used, I used the last milk to hatch the monster.
Once it hatched, I used Repetition and head down the stairs.
Going down, I used Repetition again to defeat the Turtle.
Once again, I’m back at Plumbum’s house.
[Wha- What are you trying to do?] (Plumbum)
[Please listen to me.] (Ryouta)
[You’re so annoying!] (Plumbum)
Plumbum once again brought out the Turtle.
And the stairs appeared again.
[Leave at once!] (Plumbum)
[I’ll never leave.] (Ryouta)
I firmly said, but then I went silent.
Plumbum was shocked, and looked at me confused.
With the increase with the Turtles, the room is being crushed by them.
But, Absolute Rock.
Activating my Invincible Mode, I was able to endure it.
Squish——-
I could hear squishing sound coming from my body.
It was my body handling the weight of the turtles.
[Gah.] (Ryouta)
Blood spewed out of my body.
[W-Why would you go that far…..] (Plumbum)
Plumbum asked.
[I can’t leave someone like you alone.] (Ryouta)
[So-someone like me…..?] (Plumbum)
[Being locked in this place, not being able to meet with people, and being hurt by people when you meet them.] (Ryouta)
Plumbum looked at me straight in the eyes.
[I just can’t leave you when you’re under such circumstances.] (Ryouta)
[———!] (Plumbum)
[That’s why I wanted to do something. This is nothing compared to—–] (Ryouta)
My speech was cut short.
My consciousness is fading.
In the meantime, the turtles continued to grow, and I can feel the pressure increasing by the second.
Crack!
I bit my tongue to stop myself from losing consciousness.
[Please, believe in meeeee…..] (Ryouta)
[———-!] (Plumbum)
After I said that, I couldn’t feel my feet.
This might be the end—– was what I thought.
[…… Really?] (Plumbum)
Plumbum said in a weak voice.
[Eh?] (Ryouta)
[Can I really, believe in you?] (Plumbum)
[…… Yeah.] (Ryouta)
[Are you going to visit me again?] (Plumbum)
[I will. There are some days which I wouldn’t be here, But I’ll ask my friends to drop by.] (Ryouta)
[Frie-nds?] (Plumbum)
[Yeah, if you like, I can bring you out as well.] (Ryouta)
[That is….. Not like I want……] (Plumbum)
Plumbum was mumbling.
She looked like Alice, but just a little bit different.
She doesn’t have any interest in the outside world.
She just wants someone to visit her.
That is all she ever wished for.
[…… I, I got it.] (Plumbum)
[Hm?] (Ryouta)
[I shall…. Put my trust in you.] (Plumbum)
[….. Believe in me.] (Ryouta)
I confidently said it.
She looked like she was about to cry a storm.
But her face, she was smiling back at me with a kind, and warm smile.
