Chapter 118: Danger Zone

Annoyed by the dampness of the cave and that stinking spread within it, Enatsu pulled a long, narrow drape out of his coat and wrapped it around his neck. As if it were a scarf, he covered his nose and mouth, increasing his resistance to that stinky environment.

The sound of their footsteps echoed in the first area of the dungeon, bouncing off the narrow solid walls. The only additional noise was generated by the mud dripping drop by drop on the floor and by the wings of the butterfly demon.

Enatsu snorted, trying unsuccessfully to stop shaking. Meanwhile, Yoichi walked next to him, and Shioko opened the line. Nobu followed the three adventurers behind them, projecting their shadows forward.

Preparing for any looming danger, Yoichi pulled out the dungeon map and used the light to study it in detail. The cave had an inverted T-shape: after the tunnel they were walking, the road would widen, opening into one room to the right and another to the left.
