I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated

Chapter 340: Discrepancy in Information

”Master Kiara, could it be that…?”

”Oh, I see it.”

When we reached the foot of the mountain range through tall, but thin trees forming a dense forest, peculiar to the area around the Boundary Mountain Range and unsuitable for lumber, it emerged suddenly out in the open.

A large number of corpses of evildoers are scattered in front of us. And beyond that as well. A huge cave with a gaping mouth could be seen on the surface of the Boundary Mountain Range.

“I don’t feel any magic around here.”

”Mmn.”

It’s a pretty huge cave. The entrance alone is more than 15 meters high. It must be more than 40 meters in width. If it was near the entrance, a small village would have been able to create it.

Sometimes, with the caves like this one you have to go down the cliff to the entrance just to get in, but here is a gentle slope, I was able to approach it on foot. If it were Earth, it would make a great setting for a little exploration special.

We crept closer to the entrance to the cave. Huge mossy boulders stand near the entrance and huge stalactites hang from the ceiling in a row.

At first glance, it looks like a natural cave, but the placement of the rocks and such seemed a bit awkward. Obviously, there is a route that would be the way to go.

There are signs of quite a large army coming and going. In addition, there are some rather large footprints of magical beasts.

Kiara snorted and lightly touched the ground in front of the cave. At first glance, it looks a bit trampled, but when you’re at Kiara’s level, you’ll be able to tell what kind of people have passed through, and how many.

”I’m sure this is the entrance to the dungeon.”

”I see. Let’s go in quickly then.”

”Oh. They said there were no traps or anything like that, but watch out for them.”

”Yes.”

And so, with Kiara at the front of the pack again, we carefully steered our way through the cave.

”Mmm, that’s…”

”It’s a light…”

”It smells like blood.”

Kiara stopped, and Mea and Fran each responded. Indeed, the end of the cave had been altered. The limestone cave breaks off and suddenly turns into a stone structure. The walls were set up with what looked like lamps, and it really looked like a passageway for a fort or something.

What’s more, there was once again a large amount of demonic beast corpses. Over here, the evil people were crushed to death. And it’s not just the floor, it’s the walls and the ceiling that were covered in those spattered corpses.

This must be the work of Lord Ursulath.

”Oh, this is amazing nonetheless. Normally, a large scale attack would be difficult to conduct in a narrow passage within a dungeon…”

Mea and Kiara looked at it and groaned. If you have a wide range of attacks, there’s a good chance you’ll get yourself involved. However, with gravity control, there is less damage to the surroundings. It must be hard to blow oneself up. If you think about it, earth magic may be easier to use within a dungeon than fire, water, or wind.

”Earth magic is strong in dungeons?”

But at Fran’s words, Kiara tilts her head.

”I wouldn’t say that in general.”

”Why?”

”There are many places in the dungeon where there is no dirt. Unless you’re in a cavern or something.’’

Even if the dungeon walls and such are of stone, they are still under the control of the dungeon. It seemed to be very difficult to manipulate. I’ve tried it, but the skill of turning the ground into a needle consumes a lot more magic than usual.

It would be difficult to use a technique that uses the earth to attack an enemy, let alone a technique that fires a mass of earth created by magic.

If you think about it, it may be difficult to use the earth attribute unless you’ve cultivated the earth magic that allows you to learn gravity control techniques.

I don’t think it was this bad in Urumut’s dungeon, but I guess it’s different in each dungeon.

”Mmm!”

”What was that!”

”Hmm, great magic.”

As we passed through the site of the slaughter caused by Ursulath and tried to go further, we felt a huge magic power, so massive that Fran and the others had to brace themselves. At the same time, a resounding vibration shook the walls.

”Someone’s used some big magic on you.”

”Lord Ursulath, is it?”

”Maybe. We’ll make haste, too.”

Along the way, as Johan had said, there were no traps at all. But halfway through, there is a sudden dead end and a staircase leading downward appears.

”Hmmm… didn’t the Beastmen Nation side say it was a single road for a while?”

”Yes, it should be.”

To begin with, the main part of this dungeon exists on the Bashar Kingdom’s side. The part that was extended to the Beastmen Nation’s side was only treated as an underpass to invade beyond the Boundary Mountains.

”Why are there stairs like this……… Besides, a demon beast can’t get through in this tight space.”

Kiara was right, that staircase was completely human-sized. I think a Minotaur could pass through. It would be tough if it were an ogre.

But it’s weird. It is certain that a large army of demon beasts used the exit of the cave we used to enter as a way in and out. If so, where did they come from?

Or can it be transposed if it’s in a dungeon? Then you can transfer it to the entrance side. It was strange that there were a lot of traces of magical beasts marching around here as well.

”There are so many things I don’t understand……… But we can’t turn back here, either. Quina, do you think you can take the lead?”

”Yes. I’ll be with you in a moment.”

Lead the way? As I was watching to see what was going on, Quina used phantom magic to create a dwarf-like object. It looks like a kindergarten-sized mannequin.

By the way, Quina’s visionary magic is as terrible as ever. I can feel the presence, even the heat. Well, let this one lead the way. I don’t know if you can deceive a trap or not with it, but if it’s a lurking monster, you can probably fool it well enough.

”You’re as good as ever.”

”I’m ashamed.”

”All right, let’s go.’’
