Chapter 178

Huge Animals Dungeon 4

The next day, Allen and Elena resumed their activity and proceeded to capture the third and fourth floors, but we encountered a problem on the fifth floor .

“”That way~””

“Wait a moment . We should go right there, not left, right?”

Claudio-sama put a stop to the direction Allen and Elena chose .

For the first time, Allen and Elena’s intuition has diverted from the route of Claudio-sama and others .

“Is that so, Claudio?”

“Yes, we should take left here . ”

“I also remember going left here~”

Kevin-sama agreed with Claudio-sama’s opinion .

“”It’s that waymon!””

However, Allen and Elena showed no intentions of giving up on the path leading to the right .

Normally, I would trust Allen and Elena’s intuition here . That being said, I believe the right road being the correct one . But, I have a hard time believing that the knights would make a mistake .

N~ do the paths perhaps merge into the same one later?

The next possibility is that this dungeon is the type that periodically changes paths, but… there’s no way the knights who had been here several times before wouldn’t notice .

“Hmm, this is troubling . Now then, what should we do?”

“Your Highness, from what I remember, we should take the left path . I think it would be safer to take the left path here…”

“”That way~!””

Allen and Elena undauntedly chose the right path .

But, it’s three to two . Allen and Elena are at a slight disadvantage .

“Yeah… the two who had led us until now without making any mistakes are this persistent . Not taking that into consideration would be a bit…”

Taking Allen and Elena’s past results into consideration, Al-sama didn’t want to make a mistake without a proper reason .

“Allen, Elena, is going left no good?”

“”No good~!””

Even when I confirmed, Allen and Elena refused vehemently . It’s unusual for the two to be this persistent .

Does this mean that the paths don’t merge into one? No, or do the two perhaps don’t want to “yield”?

“Alright, the kids are this persistent . Shall we take a look at the right path?”

“Are you sure, Al-sama?”

“Well, they took us so far without any problems . I don’t mind taking a little detour . ”

Al-sama decided to take a little detour and go with the path Allen and Elena chose .

I am very thankful, but… is it fine to not listen to the opinions of the knights?

“And that’s the case . I am sorry to you guys, but let’s take right here . Of course, it’s not like I trust your opinion . The kids are this a.s.sertive, so it’s necessary to investigate . It’s not yet known path for us, so I will have you pay attention to our surroundings . ”

“””Acknowledged . ”””

Al-sama is so good at talking in roundabout way~

He explained properly without hurting the knights’ pride .

“However, if we proceed without seeing any results for a while, we will return and take the left path . You two don’t mind that, do you?”

“”Don’t mind!””

Allen and Elena nodded in satisfaction . However——

“Allen, Elena, Al-sama might have yielded to you this time, but you mustn’t trouble him like so . If you are so curious about it, how about we go to check it by ourselves in the future?”

“”… Uniyu~””

Insisting is fine, but that depends on the situation . I thought of rebuking them first a little, but… they are seriously dispirited .

Even though it was for the sake of education, the damage I received is far more serious…

“Feeling down when cautioned by their guardian, that’s when they act like normal children, huh~”

“Yes, I was shocked from how much they are different from normal kids, but somehow… this makes me feel relieved . ”

Kevin-sama and Claudio-sama were whispering to each other, but I heard it all . It appears that they were relieved by Allen and Elena’s childish actions .

“Hahaha~ it seems that raising kids is hard, Tak.u.mi . ”

“It indeed is . But, Allen and Elena are not as handful as other children, after all~ The parents of the world surely have it more difficult than me~”

“That certainly seems so——Look here, Allen, Elena . It’s not like Tak.u.mi and I are angry or anything, so don’t be so downhearted . We should be on our way soon, so please lead us safely . ”

“”… Yee~s . ””

Still feeling a bit downhearted, Allen and Elena began advancing on the right path .

The path had many bends, but for some reason, we arrived at a small room after being confronted by many monsters on a straight road .

“A dead end?”

“… I don’t see any devices on the wall . ”

The knights were looking for something while lightly knocking on the wall .

But, it seemed just like a normal stone wall .

“”Over here~””

“… Allen, Elena, that’s just a wall, isn’t it?”

However, Allen and Elena kept pointing at the wall . Claudio-sama has already investigated that part, so even Al-sama was doubtful .

“It appears that it was a wrong way . Your Highness, shall we go back?”

“… N~”

Najack-sama proposed going back .

“Onii~chan . ”

“Here~”

“Yes, yes . I got it——Al-sama, stand back a little, please . ”

“N? What do you intend on doing, Tak.u.mi?”

“I will try breaking the wall first——Air Shot . ”

I helped Al-sama to a safe place and fired magic at the part of the wall Allen and Elena pointed out .
