บท 285: Ideas on corruption

"Damn, that was tiring," I muttered when I finally managed to squeeze myself out of the hole that I carved myself.

Escaping to the tunnels below the arena proved to be quite a good idea. Even though it took me a long time to somehow orient myself in this underground labyrinth before finally finding an exit, there wasn't a single party looking for me there during all that time. 

'Still, if possible, I would like to avoid ever going underground again,' I thought grimly, shaking off the fear that accompanied me during the escape. 

People say that one learns their entire life. But in my case, I had to live through two lives in order to figure out that I was actually pretty claustrophobic!

'Still, digging around might prove useful in the future,' I thought, forcing myself to return right into the hole that I just crawled out from. 

Escaping by myself was one thing, but I still had to bring that unconscious girl out as well!
