Chapter 136

「Ahh, this way」

Raizel showed a pattern and Allen and Elena copied it――while that repeated for several times, we have arrived at our destination. Yea~ my turn did not appear.

「Whoa, that’s a pretty deep valley」

「「Dee~p」」

The destination was a valley of a considerable depth, moreover, it was a place where strong wind occasionally blew from the bellow.

The requested『Crystal Flower』grows at the mountainside of this valley.

「At the bottom is…… a river?」

Taking a look down, I could see a river.

「That’s right. A deep river flows down below, although you won’t die if you fall down, please still watch your steps」

I thought I chose a relatively safe request, but it seems to be more dangerous than I thought.

「Have you gathered Crystal Flowers before, Raizel?」

「Yes, I did several times」

「How did you pick them that time?」

「In my case, I tied a rope around a strong tree and descended by relying on that」

「…… I see」

Descend with a rope…… it’s that right? The thing rescue troops practice to get down the buildings’ walls, right? What was

it called again? Err…… was it rappelling?

「In some cases, the wind blowing from below may carry you away, but that happens only when unlucky」

「Well, they are growing in a place like that, so they won’t let themselves to be picked that easily~」

「Indeed」

That means, we should tie a rope and descend.

「Allen, will do it~」

「Elena too~」

「Eh? I was the one who invited you, so let me do the gathering?」

「…… As expected, we wouldn’t be able to do that」

It appears that Raizel intended to gather the flowers by himself. Did he plan to do undertake the troublesome things because he was the one who invited us?

「「Will do it~」」

「…… Eh?」

Raizel looked at me troubledly because of Allen’s and Elena’s full willingness.

The children like to challenge everything, so well…… it’s within my expectations.

「I’m glad since I have one, but I would be happy if you told me a st.u.r.dy rope we necessary before the departure~」

「Eh? Eh? Ehh~!?」

As for me, I am self-aware. It’s only natural because I have never done something

something like rappelling before. But, while that may be true, leaving it all to Raizel even though I have accepted the request myself would be a little bad.

Ignoring my own negligence and jokingly complaining to Raizel, I prepared the ropes.

「Wha, wait, Tak.u.mi-san? W, why are you tying the ropes around the children!?」

Raizel panicked after seeing me tie the ropes around the children.

「N? No, I mean~ we are a.s.suming that only you and I will go down to pick the Crystal Flowers」

「No, I will…… no, it’s nothing. Yes」

Silencing Raizel who still wanted to go alone with my gaze, I explained my prediction.

「If we do that, it’s highly possible that the two who remained up here will descend without using a rope」

「I’m sorry? Su, surely not……」

「It is. Don’t look down on the motivated faces of these two」
