Zich already roughly knew the structure of the magical tower, and he walked forward confidently.

“A dungeon? There was something like that in the magical tower?” Lyla didn’t expect a dungeon to be in the magical tower.

“It’s a prison that holds mages, not ordinary criminals. I heard that they use the dungeon to punish mages who committed crimes. It’s empty right now.”

“It must be the ideal prison for detaining mages.”

“Yep.”

“Who is it!” 

Since the dungeon was a place where they locked up people, there were guards in front. As soon as they turned a corner and arrived at the staircase leading to the basement, Zich and his companions saw people blocking the staircase. Even though the guards outside of the magical tower wore robes, the guards in front of the staircase all had their robes off. The guards in the inside of the magical tower must have thought that wearing robes and pretending to be mages was too troublesome.
