Faraway Survivor - Chapter 373

Farah’s POV

It’s around noon that we start our departure from the palace. It takes around two hours for us to arrive at the designed place.

-Woah! (Farah)

I look through the window and find out a gigantic gate outside.

-Is that the dungeon? (Farah)

Sister Sora, who sits in front of me, answers my question.

-That’s right. Once you pass through the gate, you will arrive inside the dungeon. (Sora)

-I thought the dungeon would look like a cave or something. (Farah)

Aya, who sits next to me, also joins our conversation.

-This dungeon seems to be a little special. (Aya)

Aya points at the gate and continues.

-Many ancient letters were written on the material made of the gate. (Aya)

-What are they about, Aya? (Farah)

Aya scratches her head and answers me.

-They are quite complicated to decipher, Farah. The scholars have a hard time, and they are still currently working on them. (Aya)

-Heh… (Farah)

-But those scholars have found some information about this dungeon. They only got the dungeon’s name from those texts.

-Only name? (Farah)

-Yes. And coincidentally, this dungeon was called the dungeon of humility. (Aya)

-Ehh!? How come? (Farah)

-Right and other dungeons also make an appearance on other planets. (Aya)

Aya holds her head and says in a tired voice.

-These strange phenomena happen even more frequently these years. (Aya)

-It’s like something big will happen soon to our planets. (Farah)

Sister Sora calls out and reassures both of us.

-You two should focus on the present. You will tire yourself by thinking ahead. (Sora)

Aya nods and agrees with sister Sora.

-Sister is right. We should solve the current situation first. (Aya)

I turn to the window and look at the dungeon again.

-That dungeon…Huh…? (Farah)

A voice suddenly echoes inside my head.

-Come here.

-Huh! (Farah)

What is this? I immediately asked Hale, but I got an unexpected reply from her.

-That’s more like the result of telepathy, Farah. It’s transmitted directly to your head, and the culprit is no one else but that gate. (Hale)

-That gate… (Farah)

Hale gives me some advice.

-Be careful, I don’t have a good feeling about that dungeon. (Hale)

-Uhm… (Farah)

We eventually arrive at the military camp that surrounds the dungeon.

-We are here. (Farah)

-Aya, you should take care of Farah in the meantime. I need to confirm the situation with the soldiers stationed here. (Sora)

-Alright, see you later, sister. (Aya)

-Uhmm… (Sora)

After sister Sora said goodbye to us, she left us behind and headed to the tent in the middle of the camp.

-What are you going to do now, Aya? (Farah)

Aya smiles and answers me.

-Let’s have a look at the dungeon. (Aya)

With the permits given by sister Sora, we can freely roam inside the camp. I was also able to find some information about Hana.

-Hana went into the gate 1 hour ago. She hasn’t come out yet. (Farah)

-Right, Hana seems to take more time than usual. (Aya)

The soldiers usually take around 30 minutes to be expelled from the dungeon. Even sisters Sora and Yua could only last 45 minutes in there.

-Well, we only need to examine those ancient letters. There is no need to come closer to the gate. (Aya)

-Yes…And…? (Farah)

At that moment, a girl suddenly appears from my shadow. Aya reacts to her appearance and points the gun toward her.

-Who? (Aya)

-Master~ (Bat girl)

The girl yawns and jumps at me.

-Release her right away! (Aya)

-Aya, I know her. (Farah)

-Huh? (Aya)

-Can I have your drops of blood, master? (Bat girl)

-Can we do it later? (Farah)

The girl nods tiredly and answers.

-Okay. (Bat girl)

I turn to Aya and explain the situation.

-Hah… (Aya)

What I got was a tired sigh from Aya.

-This time is a bat girl. Why does my competitor increase so quickly? (Aya)

I tilt my head since I don’t understand Hana’s statement.

-Yes? (Farah)

-Anyway, she wants blood from you. Is she really safe? (Aya)

-Maybe? (Farah)

Aya reaches out and hits my head.

-Uwaaa! (Farah)

-You are being careless again. (Aya)

In the meantime, the bat girl looks at the tattoo on my hand and says.

-Who gives you this stigma, master? (Bat girl)

I raise my hand up and show it to the bat girl.

-Do you mean this one? (Farah)

-Yes. (Bat girl)

The bat girl grabs my hand and touches the tattoo.

-The giver is quite devious. She has messed with this stigma a little. (Bat girl)

The tattoo on my hand suddenly becomes extremely hot.

-I have fixed it. You now can use the army inside freely. (Bat girl)

-Yes? (Farah)

But from what the she said…

-…The one who helped me last time maybe not be on the same side as me. (Farh)

I could barely remember anything that happened in the dream. But I knew a woman gave me this thing in that dream. Not to mention, Hale couldn’t perceive my consciousness that night.

-… (Farah)

-Also, master… (Bat girl)

I shake my head and return my attention to the bat girl.

-That dungeon…Somehow… (Bat girl)

-Huh? (Farah)

-It gives the same smell as me. (Bat girl)’
