"Clay......?

That morning began with that one word.

Aldo, who has been assaulting me since the early morning, has asked me for architectural clay.

"Yes, besides architecture, there would be a lot of uses, wouldn't there? You can make bricks, you can make ceramics."

"Well, I was wondering if it would be useful if you could make something like"

Water bottle in water bottle, pottery bottle without water leakage that can be used and discarded.

I don't know how many times I wanted to make it.

"I guess the labyrinth has seas and forests? Then you'll find the clay."

"Um, we haven't found it yet, have we?"

"Well, why don't you ask the union to take it?

"I'm not a union member, am I?

To be a union member, you have to take the exam and cut through the interview with the branch manager.

I haven't been tested or interviewed, so I'm not a member of the union.

"But you're gonna join us someday, aren't you? I'll keep my mouth shut. Find the clay from the labyrinth and test it."

"Such an unscrupulous"

According to Mr. Hill's story, the content of the exam is left to the discretion of the branch manager.

However, the opinion is expressed that it is unfair if it is a very simple one, so they are united in the difficulty of the unsatisfactory range.

I don't know how difficult it is to find clay in this labyrinth, but it won't be that difficult because it's about diving into the labyrinth and fishing for dirt.

It is true that no clay has yet been found, but there are forests, seas and meadows, and the soil itself is abundant. If you set a purpose and look, it shouldn't be that difficult.

"But it's such an easy decision to make..."

"I usually do, though. I think it's a pretty good trial to bring stuff from this labyrinth."

"Well, I'm not dissatisfied with looking. I want it, too."

"Then it's up to you. I'll call Hill's husband."

Mr. Aldo left with a light foothold that seemed to even step on the skip.

What a rare Dwarf to dance...

"Well, that's what happened, so will Aliusha leave a message today?

"Oh no!

"What? You know, it's an exam today. I have to take it alone."

"Not one!

Ah... well, this kid was all alone in the labyrinth.

That's why I'm scared. Be alone.

I'm not afraid I won't come back. Aliusha thinks of me as her strongest swordsman.

So, even if it's a assumption, you shouldn't be worried about it in that regard.

More than that, I fear myself being left alone than being exposed to danger in the labyrinth.

"... ok. Then let's talk to Mr. Hill."

"Yeah... thanks, yum"

It's not the usual cheerful reply that you understand that you passed through impotence.

It's like some princess laying her eyes down.

As far as I'm concerned, I don't have to join the union. So if you don't like Aliusha, you don't have to take the exam.

Yes, I decided to go to the Union office (tentatively) ready.

Push it into the office where the moving support isn't over and tell Mr. Hill what's going on.

Aldo had already spoken to him, and he said that substituting clay sampling for testing was not particularly problematic.

"I don't mind replacing the exam...... is Mr. Alusha with you?

"This kid doesn't like to leave me... you see, because I've been alone in the labyrinth all my life -"

"That's well, I don't even know. But in such a dangerous place, and when it comes to sampling, you won't be able to keep turning your mind on her, will you?

I do have that concern.

The purpose of the collection is also to concentrate on the items of the goal.

I'm not looking for 'like this' in a big mess like before. Not to mention this time the subject is in the dirt.

It's hard to keep an eye on the safety of the Alliusha that comes with you.

"Sure it would be dangerous...... but I've been with her ever since. Besides, I think she can be one end adventurer. That's why I want to take you as my assistant."

"Hum. But that's... no, that's not a bad idea"

"- What?"

I have suddenly returned word of affirmation. As far as I'm concerned, I can't measure its sincerity.

"What do you mean?

"We're talking about making her an adventurer, too. You said that earlier, didn't you?

"That means assistant..."

But let's think about it.

Even for me, I don't know how long I can stay with Aliusha. Back to the original world, because that's the big purpose.

Because in this world, she's never had the means to live by herself.

The right to the labyrinth is addressed to Mr. Hill, as Aliusha would inherit if I disappeared.

I won't have any financial problems, but I'm just a kid when it comes to technical stuff.

So it's not a bad story to join a union and have it as a back shield.

"Mr. Hill...... If Aliusha joins the union, will you be her back shield?

"Am I?

"Yes, if you... No, this' Union Meadow Branch Manager 'will be her back guard,"

Mr. Hill is quite remarkable because he is the union's branch director.

Of course, since it is such a tiny branch, it would be the same that there is no say among branch managers. However, the word can be uttered in brackets: branch manager for general adventurers and for powers outside the Union.

That must be more influential than me.

"Right, I don't mind. I'm interested in her, besides you."

"What, no way...... Mr. Hill, a toddler hobby?

"No!

Of course it's a joke. It became a bit of a serious-looking stream, so it just got browned up.

But now I've taken my word for it. If Aliusha joins us, he'll take care of her even if I'm gone.

In order to do this, you must pass this exam.

"So clay collection, how long is the deadline or something?

"Well... is it a month because of the difficulty of this labyrinth and the discovery of undiscovered supplies"

"Long!?

It is a period when a month or two cabins will be built and change will come.

"It's not long. Look, we need to find an undiscovered resource. I don't even know if there is one in the first place, so I can say the difficulty level is the best as an exam. Honestly, when this becomes the standard, no one can be an adventurer in the future."

"I don't think that's it..."

"Ha, you better know you're out of standard"

When it comes to weapons, I feel like tearing them apart... because Yumil herself is really the only average swordsman in terms of muscle power to determine damage.

Anyway, I could take an understanding of the exam. The interview won't be a problem as long as this is cleared.

We took ourselves to the labyrinth in exhilaration.

One layer, the structure of a typical labyrinth of stone construction, breaks early.

Though walking the shortest distance, hundreds of meters is tough for Arusha.

Her stamina had to be kept warm at all, so she carried it on her back and stepped on it.

Though not two layers of stone, it's hard ground. Digging out the clay would be hopeless, so it goes through here too.

Elder Trent has raided several times along the way, but lowers Aliusha and slashes her down lightly.

At this point, I tried the combination of emergency actions, but Aliusha swallowed quickly, so when it came to the fight, she jumped right down and ran to support me.

"Hey, Aliusha. Am I moving fast in battle?

"Yeah, totally"

"So how can Aliusha support me exactly?

"Huh... hmm? I don't know."

Yes, she moves really well shooting in a pre-emptive [fireball] in battle or moving to an unobstructed position in the attack.

As others have said, if I'm moving at a 'speed that doesn't go unnoticed', that exact support is impossible.

Besides, neither her knowledge nor her personality maturity seem like a concurrent five-year-old.

Slippery tongues are suspicious, but at this age, there should be more difficulty in pronouncing them.

Premature, too complete for that matter. I thought so.

"Maybe Aliusha has a secret, not just for me"

"Me too? Can you say something like" yu "?

"I'm sure you can't do that"

Even though she has stamina, her own muscle strength is average.

Like me, it would be wrong to seek physical destructiveness.

Reach three layers of forest to find a soft spot in the soil.

Even when it comes to clay, there are various kinds, mainly moisture mixed in the fine soil of the skin, which is what viscous objects are called.

These three layers are flourishing with trees and you can see that the soil continues to be moderately scratched with the roots of the plants.

Additionally, moisture retention is also possible with deposits such as falling leaves.

There is a good chance of clay.

"Look, Aliusha. Adventure is about sharing roles. Same as battle."

"Yeah, 'I will. You're like," Yu-na-ko-ku "."

"Yes, I can say the same thing about sampling. Aliusha asks for perimeter alert as I look for clay"

"Kee-kae?

"Keep an eye out for enemies. Let me know first when the enemy arrives."

"Okay."

"Look, it's all about my safety, so don't ever leave my side."

"For Yu Neng? Yeah, good luck."

In places like this, the scariest thing is getting lost.

I have a map function so I can head to the lower or upper level without getting lost.

Because it even shows the position of the stairs.

However, this map function does not have a character display function. I mean, if you get away with Aliusha, you have to find it on your own.

In this vast labyrinth of kilometers in diameter.

"It's scary when you get away, isn't it? Besides, if you get attacked when you're alone, it's dangerous. So I would love to!

"Now that I know, I'm going to do it every day!

I don't feel like it's the norm every time, but just in case.

Thus Arusha hit the alert and the clay search began with the division of roles that I would explore.

Three days have passed since then.

The search for clay is more difficult than expected.

Three layers, four layers, five layers and one layer per day have been examined, but it has not been discovered that clay is suitable for architecture and craftsmanship.

I dive into the labyrinth every day and while I get more extra material, I can't find what I'm looking for.

"It's a vicious circle...... it was customary for me to go hunting elsewhere to change my mood at times like this"

"Yu, are you going somewhere?

"I'm not going to play. But I guess this should dive further down...?

What brings you down here, but when you become a five-tier enemy, you need unexpected maneuvers, and you're quite handy.

I can still feel as much as I can second kill, but the lower I go down, the stronger I get.

I'm honestly scared to go further down with Alusha.

If we get any stronger... maybe we'll have dramatically stronger enemies, we still won't be able to stop.

"Yu. Back off, back off?

"Hmmm......"

The period is one month. Mr. Hill said he didn't even know if it was there in the first place.

In case Aliusha falls off, I want as much strength as she can get back to the ground alone.

In the hierarchy below this, we'll be exhausted on the way to Aliusha today.

I wish there was a safety zone like a small room in the fountain.

"Again, it's too early to go downstairs - hmm?

subtly ground swinging sensation.

I'm not even used to being Japanese... but I remember this.

"Earthquake...?

While this is happening, the wobble gets dong bigger. In the labyrinth, which is underground, the effects of the earthquake seem to be transmitted directly.

"First...... Alusha, don't let go!

"Yu! Yu hey!

Instead of letting go of my hand, Aliusha clings to me throughout my body.

And a fuzzy sensation...

- Foot, collapse!?

I try to jump away with an Alusha in my arms, but this is not a two-tiered tunnel (tunnel).

The walls that could kick, the aisles were already gone.

"Wow!

"Khaaaaaa!

As they screamed, we were swallowed up on a broken floor.
