Dungeon 1 part 3\n
I suddenly felt a gaze on me and looked up at my brother who was still hugging me.\n
His amethyst blue eyes were looking at me gently.\n
ā¦??\n
I felt that my brother had been wearing this expression more often lately.\n
I wonder why that was?\n
I smiled and laughed.\n
āWell. Now that you seem to have calmed down, letās take care of this dense jungle.ā My Brother smiled back at me.\n
Dense jungleā¦?\n
Thatās right!!!!!!\n
āāFather!?ā\n
When I looked outside of the barrier, I saw that the grasslands had disappeared without a trace and a magnificent jungle had been completed.\n
A killer plant was approaching right in the front of the barrier.\n
What the hell is this!?\n
What are we supposed to do!?\n
What have the adults been doing all this time!?!?\n
āFather and the others areĀ still collecting magic stones.ā\n
Fatherā¦there is a limit to what you should do with these things.\n
I could picture my fatherās bashful expression*** with my adult brotherās face. (***T/N: The word used was āteheperoā which is like a āteeheeā face where the person is making an embarrassed laugh and sticking out their tongue)\n
I donāt know what it isā¦but this is extremely frustrating.\n
Not just boiling, but my anger was quickly rising up.\n
-Poof!-\n
At that moment, something burst in my head.\n
I unconsciously raised my right hand.\n
āBurn it all downā¦Firestorm.ā I muttered.\n
-Gwoooooooohhh-\n
Pillars of fire appeared from all directions. Each fire pillar moved like a tornado, burning the killer plants to the ground.\n
It was an apocalyptic scene.\n
Father and the others could use a little scorching too!\n
I was so mad that I only dared to put a weaker barrier on the adults.\n
āā¦We really shouldnāt make Charl angry, huh?ā\n
I thought I heard a stunned Chris-samaās voice, but I ignored it.\n
My brother was giggling.\n
***\n
āAfter eradicating all the killer plants and extinguishing the pillars of flameā\n
In front of me, several adults, including my good old father, were sitting on the floor in a slightly charred state.\n
āDo you understand what you have done? If you act too reckless, we will be the ones to suffer, right?ā\n
The adults were being lectured by theĀ twelve-year-old Dukeās daughter.\n
For some reason, Chris-sama was among them.\n
ā¦Whatās wrong?\n
āFrom now on, when you collect magic stones, do it in moderation and be sure to get our approval before you do it. Do you understand?ā\n
The angry look in my eyes must have gotten even angrier. It was twice as powerful as before.\n
The adults and Chris-sama nodded their heads again and again.\n
āIf you break your promiseā¦do you understand what will happen?ā\n
I held up my right hand, emitting a pillar of flame, and threatened them even further. Then I continued my lecture for about thirty minutes.\n
The adults and Chris nodded their heads again and again, looking very pale at my words.\n
āI hope this will last for a week.ā\n
Big Brother was smiling and laughing.\n
Can this really last a weekā¦?\n
I wanted to look up to the heavens. Goddessā¦\n
After that, we all gathered up the magic stones that had fallen.\n
The magic stones from the killer plants were a beautiful yellow-green stone that sparkled like peridot gemstones. HundredsĀ of them had fallen.\n
They were about the size of Tyrolean chocolate***, and they were everywhere in the five dungeon levels. (***T/N: Tyrolean chocolate is a japanese chocolate brand. Itās kind of like a KitKat)\n
It was a hassle to pick them up one by one, so I held out slightly larger leather bag in my left hand and imagined it was a vacuum cleaner.\n
āSuction.ā\n
Then, in a flash, the magic stones scattered throughout the dungeon were sucked into the leather bag.\n
ā¦I was only supposed to pick up the magic stones around meā¦\n
When I gently looked up, I saw everyoneās awkward smiling faces.\n
Itās hard to pick up everything!\n
From that day on, I was secretly called āPandoraās Box.ā\n
ā¦Why is that? Am I a disaster or something?\n
And so, at last, todayās dungeon investigation was over.\n
***\n
We came out of the dungeon.\n
At the entrance, there were several people in knight uniforms. They were lined up side by side, waiting.\n
At that moment, when I noticed one of them, I wanted to turn on my heels and run back inside the dungeonā¦\n
āYour Highness Chris. I am here to pick you up.ā\n
āSorry for the trouble, Howard.ā\n
The third capture target, the āmuscle dog,ā [Howard Odette], was there at the entrance.\n
