(EP.105)#1
105 – Backroom #1
“People, are you working hard?”
At Mirna Draco’s question, I pounded the wall harder with my palm.
I don’t know exactly how much time has passed since I was locked in the boss’s room, but I can’t see any improvement even after trying to escape for quite some time.
“Ugh.”
Mirna looked at pushing forward to open the closed door and pulling it upwards from the bottom. The thick stone-like entrance door did not even move.
“Are you angry?”
Mirna kicks the door without dignity and then speaks to me.
“Common people, let’s open the door together one last time.”
To me, it seems like a waste of energy, but Mirna still seems to have regrets about opening the door. Reluctantly, Mirna and I tried to pull the door up as hard as I could.
“Ugh-.”
“Ugh, commoner! I mean, give me more power!”
“I’m giving you!”
“It’s only because a man doesn’t have that much strength… !”
“… … .”
Of course, it was just a waste of energy, as I expected.
If it was Elgar with strong physical strength, it was impossible for me and the necromancer Mirna to lift this rocky door with the weak powers of the half-elf and Mirna.
─Paymon-!
Paaang!
Even though he tried his magic towards the tightly closed door, the door didn’t even think of moving.
It was only then that neither Mirna nor I had to admit that we were stuck here.
Isn’t a normally closed boss room a structure in which the door has to be opened after grabbing the boss? It should have been the case in the game, but it seems a little different here.
What did you make of this room?
Solomon must have been an idiot.
So it must have been subjugated.
slurp.
Mirna leaned against the wall and slipped and fell to the floor. I’ve been looking for a way to escape for a while, and now I’m tired.
Then, as if thinking of something, he approaches me and grabs my shoulder.
“Didn’t you say that you found a hidden place with your fairy’s senses? So, can you find a crack or a secret device to escape from here?”
Mirna’s expression was full of hope, like a person who found a lighter on a deserted island. But contrary to her hopes, my heart seemed to darken more and more with a tainted conscience.
Because finding a secret place with the fairy’s senses was a lie I had told before to escape the previous situation! That lie will come back to me like this again and cause trouble.
“Let’s go find it, commoner!”
“… … .”
“You don’t mean to put Mirna Draco to sleep on this cold stone floor today, are you? I’m the type of person who can’t sleep unless it’s my bed.”
“… We will try.”
In a way, it was because of me that Mirna was locked in this room. It can be said that this happened because I discovered something like a hidden boss room for nothing.
Shh.
I got up from my seat and thought that there might be some unfamiliar devices, so I put my ear to the wall and tapped it or pressed the bricks one by one.
smart.
However, there was no such thing as a hidden door opening device.
I wondered if there might be some sort of recognition device that works with Solomon’s blood.
If I, who inherited the blood of the same Angmar, spilled blood, wouldn’t it seep into something and open the door?
So I pulled out my dagger and cut my finger slightly.
Shrek.
“Hey… !”
It hurt more than I thought, so a scream came out, but Mirna, who heard the scream, leaned on the floor and rested, and then got up abruptly.
“What happened? What happened?”
“No, nothing.”
I would drop drops of blood on the floor, and touch walls and doors with bloody fingers.
However, unlike the happiness circuit I worked hard on, this room is terribly quiet and closed like a hard lock.
In the end, exhausted, I took a break and sat leaning against the wall to think calmly.
I was very thirsty, probably because the fatigue and tension I had faced with the boss came only then. I’m glad I had the water bottle I filled up at the rest area earlier.
taken from noblemt l
Gulp, gulp.
When I passed a few sips of fresh water through my neck, my hair seemed to have a little vitality. However, Mirna, who saw it, looked at me and frowned.
“What are you doing now?”
“I drink water.”
“Are you going to waste such a precious resource like that? You never know when the door will open, but the thought of drinking water carelessly!”
“Would you like to have some too, Mirna-sama?”
“… … .”
Mirna had a lot to say, but she sighed as if she was swallowing it. Then he takes a leather water bottle from my hand and swallows a few sips.
It’s an indirect kiss, but it’s been a while since I felt the same stupid idea. Mirna said as she closed the lid of the water bottle.
“I am in charge of this. If I give it to a commoner, it seems like it will all fall out soon!”
Mirna just took my water bottle and threw it away.
It seems that he wants to manage the amount of water he has left. Going further than that, Mirna instructed me to take out what was in my pocket.
“Take out all the remaining food, commoners!”
“Okay, lady.”
So I pulled out a bunch of stuff from my pocket and threw it on the floor. One, two, three-. Mirna sticks her tongue out as if she doesn’t understand the increasing number of things.
“Why are there so many candies?”
“Eating makes me feel better.”
Mirna Draco chuckled as if she didn’t like my intuitive answer.
“Twitter, the fairies are-.”
“Still, candy has a lot of sugar and is high in calories. I don’t know how long I’ll be stuck here, but it’s better than nothing.”
There were eight candies. If Myrna and I share four pills each, we can use it as energy for quite a while.
“… That’s right. I didn’t mean to ignore the fairy, Tae Oh Gospel.”
In the end, it was Mirna Draco who meekly agreed with me. I thought I’d keep ranting, but surprisingly, I admit what I’m going to admit.
I asked while taking a break from Mirna’s calming momentum and calming down a bit.
“Is there anyone out there who will come to rescue us?”
“No.”
Mirna Draco asserted. Because of the closed nature of the Draco family, who live without ties to society, no one will come to rescue her.
But I had.
If I don’t show up for a long time, maybe Elghana Aira will come to see me?
Elgar must know that I came to Magul today, so if I didn’t come to the lecture on Monday morning, it was obvious that she would find me angry with the feeling of “What are you doing with Mirna, you bastard?”
Then it will take about two days for Elgar to get here.
If it takes longer, it will take three days.
I’m just going to try this experience again in my life.
* * *
“Did you hear anything outside?”
We were keeping each other silent from the rushing sleepiness. I was awakened as Mirna Draco got up and walked around.
“What are you hearing! Looks like someone has come to rescue us!”
I listened to Mirna’s fuss. But there was no sound in my sensitive fairy ears. Perhaps Mirna Draco had an auditory hallucination.
“calm down. Energy is wasted.”
“The energy… .”
How many hours has passed since the door closed? Mirna’s condition was getting worse and worse.
It is natural for a person to fall into a panic if they are trapped in a closed place, but in the case of Mirna, the process seemed a little quicker.
“after-.”
As if to calm down, Mirna opened the water bottle and drank the water.
Then, shaking the water bottle gently, it felt as if a few full bottles were now left.
“There is not much water left! The water is running low!”
That’s because you drank it all. Why does he get angry when he drinks?
But I didn’t want to get into a nerve war with bruises for nothing. Because I thought it would be better to save that energy. And people don’t die without water.
Rule of 333. 3 minutes without air. 3 days without water. Isn’t there a saying about three weeks without food? Then it will be able to survive without water until Monday’s rescue arrives.
But even so, Mirna Draco’s condition was rather serious.
Awkward, adritch.
Because she was already eating her third candy.
There is only one candy left for her. In just a few hours, it was as if he had used all the resources given to him. Aren’t you panicking too much?
“Miss Mirna, calm down.”
I grabbed Mirna Draco’s hand.
Because the warmth of others is quite effective at calming people down. Mirna, who actually grabbed my hand, stopped panicking and took a deep breath.
“You are showing your ugliness, commoner.”
“no.”
I remembered Mirna when I was dealing with Professor Balan.
A crisis that may destroy the family. In it, she had the patience and mental power to keep her calm and cool in her own way.
But now, why do I lose my composure so easily?
I thought there must be some reason.
Maybe there is something like claustrophobia.
Would it be better to ask
As I thought about it, I could see Mirna Draco’s expression distorted as if it was very restless.
“Where are you sick?”
“… … .”
Mirna doesn’t answer.
I could tell by seeing her thighs and knees twitch as she sat on the floor. It means that she is now feeling the need and is holding on to it.
「Calmly judge the situation!

All job experience + 5”
Also. Somehow, I couldn’t be restless. So who drinks so much water? Of course, such stories do not come out of their mouths.
I glanced around. I wondered if there was a syllabus, but there was no way such a thing existed in a boss room like this.
It hurts.
Should I just buy it anywhere? Then I’m sure he’ll be nervous about me saying, “Do you think I can do such a filthy thing!”
So I didn’t know maybe it would be good, so I just kept my mouth shut. As time passed, Mirna next to me started moaning like a sick person.
“Ugh, uh… .”
In that voice, there was even a cry that went beyond pain.
“Ugh, uh… .”
I know it well because I have experienced putting up with the toilet on the bus earlier. It must be a pain as if your eyes are turning yellow and the world is spinning.
“Ugh… .”
Seeing him biting his lower lip and even clenching the skirt hem with his hand, it seems quite urgent. It seems that even me is in a hurry.
So I decided to open my mouth to Mirna first.
“Do you want to see something to see?”
“Who, who said that? Not at all! Stop worrying and figure out how to get out of here!”
Mirna shouted out loud as if she wanted to distract herself for nothing. But her face was almost on the verge of crying.
Shrek.
Then, at last, Mirna jumped up from her seat.
“Why are you waking up?”
“commons! As head of the Draco family, I command you! Face the wall and cover your ears! Keep going until that Mirna allows!”
“… … .”
“hurry!”
Yesss!
NO
