Chapter 1 Part1 (2/2)

As it seemed that Fiana did not want ely, the anger in her eye now changed into regret

Fortunately, she recovered her spirit in an instant and started thinking

[Since that is the case, the thing waiting for us further in, would it be the [Finding the big prize]… or [A big disaster]?]

[…That's right, I feel that we should be [Finding the big prize]… but let's still be mentally prepared]

In the re deht be due to the presence of a powerfulon the [Content] sealed, e find ood luck or extremely bad luck

The big prize refers to facilities that the ancient civilization aie nu preserved in their original state The value of such tools could not even be monetized

On the other hand — regarding the ter] that was sealed, so that even deot destroyed by that

Even if it is not that extre the ancient civilization could not [Subjugate] and had to resort to [Sealing] it This is obviously not so an individual could resolve on their own

We are to fall back and report to the higher up at once, if we the seal we discover is related to [A big disaster] If the seal is broken, we are to reseal it and elier However, if we are unable to reseal it, we ic to trans to our death

[However, this ht? Hence, I don't think ould face the big disaster]

[Un, they either received inforh unique (Oracle) If not, ould usually forht be dangerous even if we find the big prize]

At that ed

Previously, ere barely squeezing through the cave and there was even no proper footing to walk on But noere stepping on stone pavement

Next–it after light sipped through the crack from the partially destroyed wall

Under the illuht,a shrine-liked structure covered in nificent appearance even after all this time

[…Un, we found the big prize]

[That's right You are correct when you said (itprize)]

We were render speechless looking at the scene in front of us

Not towards the huge structure– but towards the giant statue beside it

There is an unnaturally huge and empty field in front of the shrine, which also indicates that it's used for [Battling again a giant creature]

[…That statue… would it move…?] [It would… probably move…?]

Living statue It is aremnants of the ancient civilization

I even heard that so statue in front of us is easier to handle in coe It could even be ranked a the top few ever recorded

[It seemed that it is still in an inactive state… Fiana, do you think we could just walk by it?]

[… It is unlikely we could There is an unnatural flow of spiritis definitely (alive) It would definitely wake up if it sense anydiscovered?]

[Iic stone that could detect ic Even if I used my holy arts and hide ic]

… We did not expect it to be out of energy, and could also not pass through it without being detected Since that's the case…

[We could only fight it– are you ready?]

[I a cornered by it, I will be fighting it in the erous if the cave collapses due to that thing, so I will destroy it swiftly!]

[Understood— should I fight with you?]

[— No, you don't have to I don't want it to move around too much, so please help with the support instead I will be counting on you if the cave collapses]

[Understood]

It would be faster to achieve victory if we fought together… however, this is a cave near the reh chance of the cave collapsing and the possibilities of more traps

[Well then—let's go]

I took my first step onto the empty field

— I continued walking norilant

[There is a change in its spirit energy! - It is !]

Fiana inforh the field

Although it seeed to its state, Fiana could tell that the statue was absorbing spirit energy and would start attacking us very soon

[Understood—change of plan, I will draw it over here instead, so please provide support]

[Un, understood]

Confirh the cracks of the wall, I positioned the [Bright sword] underneath the light The [Light stone] eht, which caused it to glow

— Activate… holy arts of the sun, [Light bind]!
