Dungeon of Treasured Stones (3)

“Ought to be round right here…”

“Oh, there are folks over there. Are they the Knights who stayed behind?”

“Yeah, you are proper. Let’s be a part of them.”

Upon reaching the scene, we first joined the Knight who had already began looking out and proceeded to inquire in regards to the state of affairs.

“Are you from Knights of the Anis household?”

“Sure, that is appropriate. Are you right here to assist?”

“Sure, we’re aiding within the seek for Douglas-sama, the son of the Anis household. Are you able to replace us on the present state of affairs?”

“We have searched round in every single place, however there is no signal of him. Sadly, we’ve not even found out which path he may need gone.”

“… I see.”

Looks like there’s been no progress in any respect.

And actually, the concept they simply overpassed him feels unusual.

“Um, may you inform us the final place you noticed Douglas-sama? Are you able to share the placement with us?”

I made a decision to ask them to point out us the place he was final seen earlier than they misplaced him.

“Would not it’s quicker to scatter and search fairly than on the lookout for that place?”

“Effectively~ you by no means know, he is perhaps hiding close by~… or that’s what I believed.”

That is the semi-transparent Diamond Forest. The one seen colours are undoubtedly these of individuals. Even when he was hiding in a blind spot like behind a tree, would not you someway be capable of make out the navy blue colour of a kid’s jacket by way of the diamonds? So, once you understand ‘He isn’t right here!’ and go searching, it is simply unusual that not solely his determine however even that colour is nowhere to be discovered. If he went to date that they can not even distinguish that, then I’ve to query what the guards had been doing.

“”Is he hiding~?””

“Yeah, that is proper. I really feel that he’s enjoying disguise and search. Hiding, ready for somebody to seek out him, perhaps?”

“”Then, let’s discover him~””

“Yeah, let’s discover him rapidly since he is ready for us to seek out him.”

“”Okay!””

Allen and Elena instantly started looking for Douglas-sama, who is perhaps hiding close by.

“Come to think about it, an excellent share of the misplaced youngsters had been close by all alongside.”

“Greater than half, perhaps. Even when they hear the voices of the looking out adults, they will not come out and simply preserve hiding, making it laborious to seek out them. I bear in mind it taking solely time.”

“… This is the place he disappeared.”

After listening to the opinions of adventurers who’ve looked for misplaced youngsters earlier than, the Knights appeared keen to be guided to the placement the place Douglas-sama disappeared.

“It is right here.”

“”N~ let’s have a look at… Ah!””

As they moved to a special location, it appears Allen and Elena found one thing.

“Huh? Did one thing occur?”

“”There is a gap!””

“A gap?”

“N? The place are father and mom?”

“They’re ready exterior the dungeon.”

“… Is that so?”

“Now, let’s hurry out.”

“Okay.”

As soon as Douglas-sama emerged from the hole, he appeared round to seek out his mother and father however appeared a bit dissatisfied when he could not find them.

“Thanks to your cooperation.”

“I am glad he’s secure.”

The Knights who joined within the search had been well mannered from begin to end. The nobleman, Douglas-sama’s father, appeared considerably smug, and initially, I believed the Knights serving him may need a condescending perspective in direction of adventurers. Nevertheless, that wasn’t the case.

“Dill, ought to we return to the doorway similar to this?”

“Yeah, that is proper. Whilst you would possibly need to resume exploring rapidly, let’s return collectively first.”

“Understood.”

So, with out with the ability to discover a lot of the dungeon, we ended up leaving it.

“”Douglas!””

“Father! Mom!”

And so, I noticed the emotional reunion of the household from a distance. We had determined to go away the formalities of coping with the noble to the adventurers who entered the dungeon upon receiving a correct search request. The preliminary encounter was a bit off, and there was a chance of dealing with baseless complaints. To keep away from that, they selected this strategy.

“We heard that you just discovered Douglas. Thanks for locating him.”

“Thanks very a lot.”

“… No want.”

Nevertheless, the noble couple got here all the way in which to us to precise their gratitude.

“We apologize for our habits within the dungeon. It’d sound like an excuse, however dropping our youngster made us lose ourselves for a second.”

“I see.”

It appeared that they had been fairly distraught after dropping their youngster. Surprisingly, the vanity I had perceived earlier appeared to have diminished considerably.

“I might like to precise my gratitude on prime of apologizing for my rude remarks…”

“It was not us, who dealt with the request contained in the dungeon, however him, so please tackle that to him.”

Although we had been current, we merely noticed the alternate from behind Dill. So, I declined the extra thanks, deferring to Dill as an alternative.

“In fact, him too. However I heard that you just had been those who rapidly discovered Douglas. Please settle for this as a token of our gratitude.”

“Umm… all proper. We respect it, then.”

We launched into the search with out understanding how a lot the price for a misplaced youngster request could be. Since refusing the extra thanks would possibly extend the state of affairs, we determined to simply accept it graciously.

“”Finished?””

“Yeah, it’s completed. There are some procedures left, however as soon as these are completed, we could return into the dungeon?”

“”Yeah!””

Regardless of getting concerned in a little bit of bother shortly after getting into, we gathered ourselves and determined to re-enter the Dungeon of Treasured Stones.
