Eleris didn’t look very pleased. The plan was to create an artificial dungeon, a trap to lure in Cantus Magna, but it would also draw in countless adventurers.0

Then again, it wasn’t like we were dragging them into the dungeon by force. Why did we have to worry about those who lost their lives trying to strike a big score? Still, it was strange that I had ultimately agreed to something that would inevitably lead to many deaths.0

“If we’re done here, I’ll be going back.”0

“Yes.”0

Antirianus, Galarsh, and Lruien cast teleportation spells and soon disappeared from the room.0

Only Lucinil, Eleris, and I remained in the meeting room.0

“What about Radia?” I asked.0

“I told her to wait in her room,” Eleris replied.0

Staying in such a cold and silent place for too long might drive someone mad. I wondered if she would be okay. 0

I wasn’t particularly concerned about how Radia was doing, but she did cross my mind whenever I came to this place. It seemed like Eleris was taking good care of her, though. It almost felt like she was being kept like a pet.0

Anyway, that wasn’t the issue at hand.0

“Alright. Eleris and Lucinil, let’s go somewhere for a bit.”0

“Do you have something else to do?” asked the silver-haired kid.0

I nodded. “Let’s visit the Demon King’s Castle.”0

“The Demon King’s Castle? Oh, come to think of it…” Eleris said.0

“Right. There was supposed to be some kind of refuge there,” Lucinil remarked.0

“Yes, we’re going to check it out,” I replied.0

We needed to find spell books that could help to sell the fake dungeon and make it seem more legitimate. However, I was clueless about magic, so even if there were such spell books available in the library of the bunker beneath the Demon King’s Castle, I wouldn’t be able...0
