Chapter 158 – Tower of sunrise's first floor

With the rank up, we completed the formalities of the tower of sunrise's entry permission

and went to the『tower of sunrise』immediately.

The entrance of『tower of sunrise』was located in the town

and soldiers guarded the perimeter.

I talked to the soldiers who were guarding the tower's entrance.

「Excuse me, we'd like to enter the tower of sunrise, would that be okay?」

「Please show me the entrance permit.」

「Y-, Yes.」

We showed the entrance permit issued by the adventurers guild.

Hm?

Why does Lela have an entrance permit?

「Lela. Are you by any chance going in as well?」

「Yes, why?」

「Lela, you're not an adventurer, right?

Why do you have an entrance permit?」

「I've gotten permission with Seiji and co as guards.」

「Err~. Lela-san, are you fine with other works?」

「It's fine, there's no problem.」

Is that so?

Well, if it's Lela, it will be okay to display our abilities.

As this was our first time entering, we received an explanation about the tower from the soldier.

「Currently, this tower has been captured from the 1st to 3rd floor.」

「N!? Though it has a height of about 60 floors, only up to the 3rd floor has been captured?」

「Yes, the stairs to go up to the upper floor from the 3rd floor has yet to be found.

If you find the stairs please report it.」

「U-, Understood.」

「Next about the traps……」

「There are traps?」

「Yes.

There's a wide room where you can go straight ahead from the entrance,

there's a trap in the center.

Please don't approach it as much as possible.」

「Y-, Yes.」

「Then, about the monsters.

Generally, there's one type of monster that appears frequently per level.

Sometimes, monsters of different color appear. Since the magic stones are inside the bodies of the monsters, if you discover one please prioritize in killing it and secure the magic stone.」

I see, so rare monsters possesses magic stones.

~~~~~~~~~~

After receiving the explanation about the tower,

we completely prepared ourselves and set foot in the tower.

The inside of the tower was gloomy,

it was covered with dirt-like walls,

and the smell of mold and dirt wafted through the air.

Though it should be the first floor on the surface, it almost look like an underground cave.

「I'm looking forward to what kind of monster will appear, oniichan!」

Aya was in high spirits as if she had come here for a picnic.

「Ah, I forgot to say. I can't fight because my left hand is injured.」

「N!? Is that true!?」

Since Lela was surprised,

I took off the gloves on my left hand and showed the bandaged that wrapped around it.

「Were you wearing the gloves to hide your injury!?

To inflict an injury to a person like Seiji, what kind of guy was your opponent?」

「Stalker.」

「A demon with that name, it seems to be strong somehow.」

But it's not a demon.

「By the way, Hilda.

What kind of injury have you suffered in battle while you were in the magician unit?」

「Since I was a baggage carrier, I didn't fight.」

「Is that so?」

「Yes, but please leave the dismantling of the monsters to me!」

That reminds me, she got a knife for dismantling monsters from Rachel.

「Then, we'll leave the dismantling to Hilda.」
