1. DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON
Copy !req
2. It wasn't just a myth, after all!
Copy !req
3. That fallen ancient kingdom
actually existed!
Copy !req
4. This is pure gold.
Copy !req
5. Incredible.
Copy !req
6. Hey…
Copy !req
7. Shouldn't we head back up
to the surface once?
Copy !req
8. If we want to explore,
we should be better prepared.
Copy !req
9. Stop talking nonsense.
Copy !req
10. Senshi,
Copy !req
11. are you sure you have
iron flowing in your veins?
Copy !req
12. Don't push yourself.
Copy !req
13. You wait here.
Copy !req
14. I want gold too!
Copy !req
15. I was terrified
of being left behind, so I lied.
Copy !req
16. That place just didn't sit right with me.
Copy !req
17. And although many of my group
were ambitious from the start,
Copy !req
18. they were acting weird then.
Copy !req
19. Their eyes were gleaming in the dark,
Copy !req
20. and they kept plunging deeper and deeper
like they were being pulled in.
Copy !req
21. Then suddenly, it began.
Copy !req
22. What happened?
Copy !req
23. A-A monster!
Copy !req
24. A giant bird monster
showed up out of nowhere
Copy !req
25. and took out Totan!
Copy !req
26. This isn't just some old ruins.
Copy !req
27. It's turned into a dungeon!
Copy !req
28. By the time fear had jolted everyone
back to themselves,
Copy !req
29. we realized we'd lost our way back.
Copy !req
30. What if we've been trapped in here?
Copy !req
31. All dungeons
have a way out to the surface.
Copy !req
32. Let's keep our cool
and hunt for that exit.
Copy !req
33. We kept roaming the dungeon,
avoiding any monsters.
Copy !req
34. Curiously, when we became thirsty,
we stumbled upon springs.
Copy !req
35. When we were exhausted,
rooms would pop up for us to rest in.
Copy !req
36. Some even got tempted
by a gorgeous woman in the shadows.
Copy !req
37. Eventually, our food ran out.
Copy !req
38. If we keep going like this,
we'll starve and die.
Copy !req
39. We must find something to eat,
even if it means fighting.
Copy !req
40. Something to eat?
Copy !req
41. Even monsters must feed on something.
Copy !req
42. Invar, Brigan!
Copy !req
43. Use your shields to be on guard.
Copy !req
44. Null and I will fend off monsters
with our weapons.
Copy !req
45. Senshi…
Copy !req
46. You stay put
and work on mapping out this area.
Copy !req
47. Let's go!
Copy !req
48. That bird monster showed up again!
Copy !req
49. That damn thing flies off too fast.
Copy !req
50. I-I'll join you on the next food hunt!
Copy !req
51. No, you'll just slow us down.
Copy !req
52. We've found food.
Copy !req
53. Here, have this.
Copy !req
54. Even though I wasn't exerting myself,
I still became hungry.
Copy !req
55. I felt so pathetic.
Copy !req
56. Our daily hunt for food
became more urgent than finding the exit.
Copy !req
57. The bird kept on our tails relentlessly.
Copy !req
58. With each fight, our numbers dwindled.
Copy !req
59. Finally, with nothing else to eat,
Copy !req
60. we had to resort to killing our horse.
Copy !req
61. That four-legged eagle…
there's no mistaking it.
Copy !req
62. It's a monster called a Griffin.
Copy !req
63. Why is it so fixated on us?
Copy !req
64. It doesn't seem like
it's hungry or anything.
Copy !req
65. It probably just enjoys
the thrill of the kill.
Copy !req
66. They say monsters are like that.
Copy !req
67. Don't worry.
Copy !req
68. Next time it swoops in,
we'll roast it whole and feast on it.
Copy !req
69. Here. Be grateful to Anne and eat up.
Copy !req
70. What's up with you,
Copy !req
71. giving the biggest portion
to the useless brat?
Copy !req
72. He's only 36 and still needs to grow.
Copy !req
73. As grown-ups,
it's our duty to take care of him.
Copy !req
74. We can't afford to do that!
Copy !req
75. It's over for us when we can't look after
the next generation anymore!
Copy !req
76. I'm so hungry.
Copy !req
77. If iron really does flow through my veins,
Copy !req
78. I wonder if I can munch on rocks.
Copy !req
79. Hey!
Copy !req
80. You've got a hidden stash of food,
haven't you?
Copy !req
81. Stop it! What's gotten into you?
Copy !req
82. That brat!
Copy !req
83. Let's discuss this outside.
Copy !req
84. You're scaring Senshi.
Copy !req
85. - How many times do I have to tell you?
- Why you! Shut up!
Copy !req
86. The shouting kept getting louder.
Copy !req
87. I heard the sounds of scuffling
and a few screams.
Copy !req
88. Then, it went eerily silent.
Copy !req
89. What happened?
Copy !req
90. Where's Brigan?
Copy !req
91. Stay put!
Copy !req
92. Don't look outside.
Copy !req
93. We were attacked by the Griffin.
Copy !req
94. I took down the Griffin,
but Brigan died instantly.
Copy !req
95. When I looked at Gillin's head,
Copy !req
96. there was a dent in his helmet,
like it had been hit by a blunt object.
Copy !req
97. Let's eat the Griffin.
Copy !req
98. If we clean it and make a soup out of it,
Copy !req
99. we could survive a few more days.
Copy !req
100. The Griffin soup, just boiled with water,
had a gamey smell and the meat was tough.
Copy !req
101. It tasted awful.
Copy !req
102. But I chewed intently
Copy !req
103. and downed it slowly, taking my time.
Copy !req
104. Gillin said he needed to relieve himself,
Copy !req
105. and stepped outside unsteadily.
Copy !req
106. But he never returned.
Copy !req
107. I found myself all alone.
Copy !req
108. I lacked the courage
to peek outside the door,
Copy !req
109. and I was unable to leave the room.
Copy !req
110. I survived on the meat that was left
Copy !req
111. and pored over the maps I had sketched.
Copy !req
112. Eventually, I noticed a pattern
in the symbols etched on the walls.
Copy !req
113. When I finally gathered the courage
to step out of the room…
Copy !req
114. there were no bodies to be found.
Copy !req
115. They must have been devoured cleanly
by various creatures.
Copy !req
116. Later, I was captured by orcs,
Copy !req
117. and held captive
in their settlement for some time.
Copy !req
118. But when I tried to communicate with them,
they turned out to be quite decent folk.
Copy !req
119. In exchange for teaching them
ancient Dwarvish,
Copy !req
120. they taught me how to distinguish
between edible and poisonous mushrooms,
Copy !req
121. and how to handle encounters
with monsters.
Copy !req
122. And that's how…
Copy !req
123. I made it back to the surface.
Copy !req
124. But after everything that happened,
Copy !req
125. I couldn't find it in me
to return to my hometown.
Copy !req
126. So, I lived near the dungeon
or in its upper levels.
Copy !req
127. Eventually, the city on the surface
connected with the dungeon,
Copy !req
128. and many adventurers began venturing down.
Copy !req
129. What weighed on my mind
Copy !req
130. was whether the meat I consumed
truly came from the Griffin.
Copy !req
131. Every time I eat,
I'm haunted by the taste of that soup.
Copy !req
132. No other monster
tasted anything like that.
Copy !req
133. That's why I fled from the Griffin.
Copy !req
134. I'm afraid of discovering the truth.
Copy !req
135. I had no idea…
Copy !req
136. Senshi…
Copy !req
137. Then why not try eating that Griffin?
Copy !req
138. - Huh?
- Huh?
Copy !req
139. I mean, it's awful for him
Copy !req
140. to be haunted by that memory every time
he eats for the rest of his life.
Copy !req
141. If it tastes the same,
he can put his mind at ease.
Copy !req
142. And if it's completely different,
Copy !req
143. well, it's a shame,
but at least it won't plague him anymore.
Copy !req
144. It's going to plague him even more.
Copy !req
145. What's with him?
Copy !req
146. What do you think, Senshi?
Copy !req
147. You're right.
Copy !req
148. I should try it.
Copy !req
149. Senshi…
Copy !req
150. All right then!
Copy !req
151. Let's recreate the cooking
as closely as possible.
Copy !req
152. We'll cut out the meat
without doing much to it.
Copy !req
153. Since the upper body and lower body
might taste completely different,
Copy !req
154. we'll take cuts from both.
Copy !req
155. You just want to eat it.
Copy !req
156. That's some impressive muscle.
Copy !req
157. It's not a carnivore for nothing.
Copy !req
158. Why did the Griffin pursue
Senshi and his group so relentlessly?
Copy !req
159. It might have killed people,
but it didn't seem keen on eating them.
Copy !req
160. They had a horse though.
Copy !req
161. Maybe that's why.
Copy !req
162. Griffins have a penchant for horses.
Copy !req
163. But then why didn't it target
the horse first?
Copy !req
164. No idea.
Copy !req
165. I'll get some water boiling.
Copy !req
166. The Griffin's weapons
are its front claws and beak.
Copy !req
167. It can't leave a dent on you
like you were hit by a blunt object.
Copy !req
168. So whatever killed Brigan
probably wasn't a Griffin.
Copy !req
169. But what about the other three?
Copy !req
170. Just like how we mistook
Falin for a Griffin,
Copy !req
171. maybe it was
a different monster altogether.
Copy !req
172. There are many large monsters with wings.
Copy !req
173. The Cockatrice, Basilisk, Harpy, Siren,
Copy !req
174. Pegasus, Simurgh, and Roc.
Copy !req
175. Which of these monsters possesses
a weapon resembling a blunt object?
Copy !req
176. The water's boiling.
Copy !req
177. Do we just let it boil like this?
Copy !req
178. Should we add other ingredients?
Copy !req
179. No, that's it.
Copy !req
180. It's going to be a bland soup.
Copy !req
181. It'd be nice if we had some garnish.
Copy !req
182. By the way, you mentioned that the orcs
taught you how to distinguish mushrooms.
Copy !req
183. But is this your first time
seeing these mushrooms?
Copy !req
184. Yeah, I've never seen them before.
Copy !req
185. Marcille, I'm leaving the rest to you.
Copy !req
186. - Huh? Hey!
- Huh?
Copy !req
187. You've come this far,
and now you're backing out?
Copy !req
188. So flighty!
Copy !req
189. Fine, forget it then.
Copy !req
190. This won't help Senshi anyway.
Copy !req
191. No, we've come this far, so let me try it.
Copy !req
192. I'll accept whatever truth awaits me.
Copy !req
193. GRIFFIN SOUP (UPPER BODY)
(LOWER BODY)
Copy !req
194. It's done.
Copy !req
195. This…
Copy !req
196. doesn't taste anything like
what I had that day.
Copy !req
197. What I ate back then must have been…
Copy !req
198. You mean…
Copy !req
199. It's fine.
Copy !req
200. A weight has been lifted.
Copy !req
201. Gillin must have wanted me to survive,
no matter what.
Copy !req
202. I'll carry on with that wish.
Copy !req
203. Laios, you moron!
Copy !req
204. What have you done?
Copy !req
205. Griffin meat is very gamey and tough.
Copy !req
206. More than anything,
the aftertaste is just awful.
Copy !req
207. That's right.
Copy !req
208. Senshi didn't eat Griffin meat that day.
Copy !req
209. But it wasn't human flesh either!
Copy !req
210. What attacked them was a Hippogriff,
not a Griffin.
Copy !req
211. A Hippogriff?
Copy !req
212. Unlike a Griffin,
which has the lower body of a lion,
Copy !req
213. a Hippogriff
is a close relative of a horse.
Copy !req
214. It likely kept chasing them down
because they had a horse.
Copy !req
215. Maybe it was curious or in heat.
Copy !req
216. Plus, a Hippogriff
has a weapon a Griffin lacks.
Copy !req
217. Hind legs with hooves.
Copy !req
218. Its kick could tear through metal,
leaving a sizable hole.
Copy !req
219. I assure you, Senshi!
Copy !req
220. If what you had that day was a Hippogriff,
Copy !req
221. then it's only natural
it would taste different from this soup.
Copy !req
222. Thank you, Laios.
Copy !req
223. I feel a bit better hearing that.
Copy !req
224. Even though there's no way
to confirm what a Hippogriff tastes like.
Copy !req
225. Let's find out then.
Copy !req
226. - Huh?
- Huh?
Copy !req
227. Let's compare it to Hippogriff meat.
Copy !req
228. I thought you were going
to wrap it up with something like,
Copy !req
229. "The truth remains uncertain,
but now there's a glimmer of hope."
Copy !req
230. I mean, where would we
even find a Hippogriff?
Copy !req
231. Well,
Copy !req
232. we have a Hippogriff right here!
Copy !req
233. There must have been reports of one
in this dungeon in the past.
Copy !req
234. So why didn't we notice them?
Copy !req
235. Because we were fighting a Griffin
that shouldn't even be in this dungeon.
Copy !req
236. Why is that?
Copy !req
237. Because the presence
of an accomplice complicated things.
Copy !req
238. An accomplice?
Copy !req
239. Changelings.
Copy !req
240. Now that I think about it,
that legend comes from your hometown.
Copy !req
241. Ever heard of Changeling Children?
Copy !req
242. It's a phenomenon
where children are swapped with monsters.
Copy !req
243. A child who goes to play in the woods
returns home as an identical troll.
Copy !req
244. For a long time, they were believed
to be a type of magic.
Copy !req
245. But recently,
Copy !req
246. it's been discovered that it's the work
of these mushroom-like monsters.
Copy !req
247. Those who step into a ring of them
undergo a subtle change.
Copy !req
248. Once people learned about this,
Copy !req
249. they eradicated the mushrooms,
and now they're rare.
Copy !req
250. To think we'd find them growing here.
Copy !req
251. The way the Griffin seized Senshi
but didn't eat him.
Copy !req
252. The sharp kick that killed the Familiar.
Copy !req
253. It's likely that
the Griffin we fought was actually…
Copy !req
254. Let's find out.
Copy !req
255. Place Griffin meat
inside a Changeling fairy ring.
Copy !req
256. The meat looks different.
Copy !req
257. It's marbled with fat and looks delicious.
Copy !req
258. All right, let's make soup from this.
Copy !req
259. HIPPOGRIFF SOUP
Copy !req
260. S-Senshi?
Copy !req
261. W-Well, flavors can vary depending on
conditions and environments,
Copy !req
262. so I wouldn't worry about it…
Copy !req
263. No. That's not it.
Copy !req
264. I've been wanting
Copy !req
265. to taste this soup again for a long time.
Copy !req
266. Thank you, everyone.
Copy !req
267. Thank you.
Copy !req
268. Living in this dungeon for a long time
has made me realize something.
Copy !req
269. This dungeon responds strongly
to a person's desires,
Copy !req
270. whether it's wealth, knowledge, or fame.
Copy !req
271. It's accommodating to those like orcs
who don't seek anything from it.
Copy !req
272. But the moment you desire something,
it shows its fangs.
Copy !req
273. From now on,
Copy !req
274. not only will you aim to rescue Falin,
but you'll also be searching
Copy !req
275. for the lunatic magician
and the Winged Lion.
Copy !req
276. The dungeon's response
will become even more severe.
Copy !req
277. Still,
Copy !req
278. there are many things I want to teach you.
Copy !req
279. Will you take me with you?
Copy !req
280. Of course!
Copy !req
281. Okay, everyone!
Copy !req
282. Let's get going!
Copy !req
283. How are you all feeling?
Copy !req
284. I'm feeling cold.
Copy !req
285. I might not make it.
Copy !req
286. This has to be food poisoning, right?
Copy !req
287. I mean, we've eaten all sorts of things.
Copy !req
288. But we can't afford to die here.
Copy !req
289. Falin…
Copy !req
290. How long was I out?
Copy !req
291. I feel lighter.
Copy !req
292. Has the food poisoning passed?
Copy !req
293. Good.
Copy !req
294. I was afraid that…
Copy !req
295. What's going on?
Copy !req
296. Marcille.
Copy !req
297. Look at me.
Copy !req
298. Does my body look strange to you?
Copy !req
299. Marcille has shrunk too!
Copy !req
300. Senshi, this is bad!
Copy !req
301. Wake up! Sen—
Copy !req
302. W-Who are you?
Copy !req
303. What's with all the racket?
Copy !req
304. Chil…
Copy !req
305. Chilchuck, sir?
Copy !req
306. It looks like
we stepped on some Changelings.
Copy !req
307. H-How is this even possible?
Copy !req
308. They transformed a Griffin
into a Hippogriff.
Copy !req
309. They could do this to people.
Copy !req
310. I'm a dwarf now.
Copy !req
311. Senshi is an elf.
Copy !req
312. Marcille is a half-foot?
Copy !req
313. And Chilchuck is a tall-man.
Copy !req
314. Izutsumi…
Copy !req
315. is a dog.
Copy !req
316. No, I think that's a kobold.
Copy !req
317. A kobold with cat ears.
Copy !req
318. Now,
Copy !req
319. how do we get back our bodies?
Copy !req
320. We'll have to retrace our steps.
Copy !req
321. If we step inside a mushroom ring,
we'll be able to revert, right?
Copy !req
322. That's my assumption,
Copy !req
323. but take a look outside.
Copy !req
324. The path has shifted.
Copy !req
325. While we were laid up,
I couldn't stop shaking.
Copy !req
326. Are you saying it was the dungeon,
not my body, that was shaking?
Copy !req
327. I'm not sure we can make it back,
Copy !req
328. but let's return to the reservoir.
Copy !req
329. The luggage feels really light.
Copy !req
330. Marcille, I'll carry some of your stuff.
Copy !req
331. Thanks.
Copy !req
332. I'm liking this body.
Copy !req
333. I can see well in the dark.
Copy !req
334. I might even be able to beat Namari
in an arm wrestle now.
Copy !req
335. Chilchuck, how's that body of yours?
Copy !req
336. It feels like I'm enveloped in a heavy,
transparent, and thick membrane.
Copy !req
337. So, your senses are dulled?
Copy !req
338. Yeah.
Copy !req
339. But it's strangely calming.
Copy !req
340. Oh, and it's also nice to be able
to look down on you guys.
Copy !req
341. Wait, is this door…
Copy !req
342. Ugh, this is where
we were originally headed!
Copy !req
343. The deepest point, huh?
Copy !req
344. We intended to turn back,
but ended up pressing forward.
Copy !req
345. Someone set up camp here.
Copy !req
346. It seems other adventurers have been here.
Copy !req
347. Do you think
they might know how to fix us?
Copy !req
348. I doubt they ventured beyond this door.
Copy !req
349. They might have already
teleported back to the surface.
Copy !req
350. What do we do then?
Copy !req
351. I've been thinking…
Copy !req
352. why don't we continue searching
for the Winged Lion like this?
Copy !req
353. Huh?
Copy !req
354. The dungeon
doesn't seem inclined to release us.
Copy !req
355. Instead of wasting time resisting it,
it might be quicker to press onward.
Copy !req
356. Of course,
Copy !req
357. once we make it back to the surface,
I'm sure there'll be plenty of solutions.
Copy !req
358. I'm not suggesting
we stay like this forever.
Copy !req
359. That's absurd!
Copy !req
360. Just because you've become
a long-lived race…
Copy !req
361. He has a point.
Copy !req
362. I haven't experienced
any inconvenience so far.
Copy !req
363. So what if the size of our ears
is a little different anyway?
Copy !req
364. Say we press on then.
Copy !req
365. What's the plan for that door?
Copy !req
366. Everyone's fussing
because it won't open, right?
Copy !req
367. Do you think you can unlock it, Chilchuck?
Copy !req
368. Well, it'd need to have a lock
in the first place.
Copy !req
369. I think it operates with magic.
Copy !req
370. I can sense magic flowing through it,
Copy !req
371. but deciphering it would require
time, equipment, and money.
Copy !req
372. Yaad, what do we do about this?
Copy !req
373. Help us, Winged Lion!
Copy !req
374. - Hey!
- Hey!
Copy !req
375. Hey!
Copy !req
376. Laios, something's sprouting!
Copy !req
377. Kensuke?
Copy !req
378. Why is it growing?
Copy !req
379. I thought the bitter cold had killed it.
Copy !req
380. The door…
Copy !req
381. Do you think
the Winged Lion is helping us?
Copy !req
382. It could be thanks to Yaad.
Copy !req
383. We should thank them all the same.
Copy !req
384. - Thanks, Lion or Yaad!
- Thanks, Lion or Yaad!
Copy !req
385. There! I thought I saw something move!
Copy !req
386. It's a Gargoyle!
Copy !req
387. Here it comes!
Copy !req
388. As you can see,
Gargoyles are moving stone statues.
Copy !req
389. Striking them will only end up
hurting you, so be careful.
Copy !req
390. There's nothing I can do here.
Copy !req
391. I'll back off so I won't get in their way.
Copy !req
392. Huh? Why is it coming after me?
Copy !req
393. Because you stand out the most!
Copy !req
394. You're big, so you should fight too!
Copy !req
395. Don't be ridiculous! I can't—
Copy !req
396. Chilchuck!
Copy !req
397. It's okay! It wasn't a direct hit—
Copy !req
398. Marcille?
Copy !req
399. E-Everything's swirling
with rainbow colors.
Copy !req
400. Is it mana sickness? With just one attack?
Copy !req
401. This is bad.
Copy !req
402. Izutsumi, cover Chilchuck's back.
Copy !req
403. Stay!
Copy !req
404. No, Izutsumi.
Copy !req
405. Don't move until I say so!
Copy !req
406. The loud noises and the smell of blood
are getting her all riled up.
Copy !req
407. If she starts fighting,
she won't stop until she's dead.
Copy !req
408. Senshi, grab the pot!
Copy !req
409. Senshi? Why aren't you holding anything?
Copy !req
410. Because it's too heavy.
Copy !req
411. Never mind. The sword and pot
feel much lighter than usual.
Copy !req
412. At this rate, I can win on my own.
Copy !req
413. Except…
Copy !req
414. how do I put it?
Copy !req
415. This body…
Copy !req
416. is really exhausting!
Copy !req
417. Damn, we're going to lose.
Copy !req
418. Everyone, get out of here!
Copy !req
419. Senshi, carry Marcille
and head behind that door.
Copy !req
420. Izutsumi.
Copy !req
421. Follow this bell!
Copy !req
422. Chilchuck, take this pot lid!
Copy !req
423. Run for it!
Copy !req
424. Oh no.
Copy !req
425. This body is seriously inconvenient.
Copy !req
426. And there's no going back now.
Copy !req
427. It can't be helped.
Copy !req
428. Let's just hope those mushrooms
are growing ahead.
Copy !req
429. This is a genuine dwarf relic.
Copy !req
430. Do those mushrooms grow around here too?
Copy !req
431. It's really hot.
Copy !req
432. Maybe we should start cooking.
Copy !req
433. Now I get why Senshi
always starts cooking out of the blue.
Copy !req
434. This body gets really hungry.
Copy !req
435. I've never seen Namari
randomly start preparing food though.
Copy !req
436. Cooking is perfect for self-reflection.
Copy !req
437. Knead together flour, water,
salt, and egg thoroughly,
Copy !req
438. then let it rest.
Copy !req
439. Meanwhile, combine chopped onions
and other vegetables with minced meat,
Copy !req
440. and mix well.
Copy !req
441. Shape the rested dough into a long stick.
Copy !req
442. Cut it into equal pieces,
Copy !req
443. and roll each piece into thin sheets.
Copy !req
444. Place the filling onto
the rolled-out dough then wrap it up.
Copy !req
445. Keep wrapping.
Copy !req
446. It's strange.
Copy !req
447. Working in silence
is helping me calm down.
Copy !req
448. Aren't we making too much?
Copy !req
449. That turned out really nicely.
Copy !req
450. It's done.
Copy !req
451. BOILED HIPPOGRIFF DUMPLINGS
Copy !req
452. The shape of it
is pretty familiar,
Copy !req
453. The shape is familiar,
but the smell is totally different.
Copy !req
454. but it's weird
'cause it doesn't smell like it should.
Copy !req
455. It's kind of odd.
Copy !req
456. You've never had them
with potatoes or cheese?
Copy !req
457. No potato or cheese in them, huh?
Copy !req
458. Back in my hometown, we usually fry them.
Copy !req
459. These are typically fried
from where I'm from.
Copy !req
460. - Let's dig in.
- Let's dig in.
Copy !req
461. Now it's time to dig in.
Copy !req
462. Aah…
Copy !req
463. Careful not to burn yourself.
Copy !req
464. Be careful.
Otherwise, you'll burn yourself.
Copy !req
465. Say that first!
Copy !req
466. Oh, you think?
Copy !req
467. Oh, this is good.
Copy !req
468. Is it just me
Copy !req
469. Strangely almost better than normal.
Copy !req
470. or does it taste surprisingly good?
Copy !req
471. Did changing races affect
our taste buds too?
Copy !req
472. Do racial differences affect taste too?
Copy !req
473. No, I think anyone would find this tasty.
Copy !req
474. No. These are good
no matter who's eating them.
Copy !req
475. Strange, isn't it?
Copy !req
476. It's strange, isn't it?
Copy !req
477. Every region and race
makes their dumplings
Copy !req
478. Every region and race has its own
different ways of cooking dumplings,
Copy !req
479. in completely different ways.
Copy !req
480. yet they all taste delicious.
Copy !req
481. But in the end,
they're all still delicious.
Copy !req
482. R-Right!
Copy !req
483. Yeah, that's right!
Copy !req
484. It's just like us right now.
Copy !req
485. That basically applies to all of us too.
Copy !req
486. Even though we've changed a little bit,
Copy !req
487. Even though some things have changed,
we're still ourselves.
Copy !req
488. we're still just the same person
in the end.
Copy !req
489. We're gonna make it work.
Copy !req
490. We'll make it work.
Copy !req
491. That wraps things up nicely, doesn't it?
Copy !req
492. Well, I guess that wraps
everything up now.
Copy !req
493. Only in your head.
Copy !req
494. Yeah, in your head maybe.
Copy !req
495. Anyway, this place is odd.
Copy !req
496. Anyway, this place is so unique.
Copy !req
497. I wonder what it was.
Copy !req
498. What exactly is it?
Copy !req
499. It's basically
a type of defensive point
Copy !req
500. It's a defensive stronghold
built by dwarves, right?
Copy !req
501. that the dwarves built.
Copy !req
502. Defensive?
Copy !req
503. Defensive point?
Copy !req
504. From when the elves
and dwarves were at war.
Copy !req
505. It's from back when the elves
and dwarves were in a war.
Copy !req
506. Didn't you learn about it in school?
Copy !req
507. You didn't learn about this in school?
Copy !req
508. They competed to develop
more and more advanced technology,
Copy !req
509. Both sides battled in an arms race
to make more advanced technology,
Copy !req
510. which eventually led to a catastrophe.
Copy !req
511. which ended up being catastrophic.
Copy !req
512. Ever since,
the dwarves and elves have feared
Copy !req
513. Elves and dwarves
are afraid of history repeating itself,
Copy !req
514. that history would eventually
repeat itself,
Copy !req
515. which is why they're prickly
about technology in the dungeon.
Copy !req
516. so they've limited technologies
used inside the dungeons.
Copy !req
517. The conflict between races
was especially intense
Copy !req
518. This dungeon, in particular,
is where many cultures intersect,
Copy !req
519. within this dungeon,
Copy !req
520. so there will be a lot of disputes
when it comes to acquiring it.
Copy !req
521. so I imagine we're going to have
a lot of conflicts when elves step in.
Copy !req
522. Yeah, a-about that.
Copy !req
523. Yeah, well, regarding that.
Copy !req
524. If we run into trouble with the elves,
you can do something about it, right?
Copy !req
525. If the elves happen to come after us,
Copy !req
526. you'll be able to do something
to fix it, right?
Copy !req
527. Huh? Wait, why me?
Copy !req
528. Huh? Why me?
Copy !req
529. You must have connections.
Copy !req
530. You said your mom worked at the court.
Copy !req
531. Your mother was a court magician.
Copy !req
532. You told us that, didn't you?
Copy !req
533. Don't you have connections?
Copy !req
534. W-Well…
Copy !req
535. I mean, yeah, I did, but…
Copy !req
536. Calm down.
Copy !req
537. Now, now.
Copy !req
538. Either way,
she's a half-foot at the moment.
Copy !req
539. Anyway, she's a half-foot now.
Copy !req
540. If anyone's going to negotiate
with the elves, it's Senshi.
Copy !req
541. If anybody talks with the elves, it's him.
Copy !req
542. I shall do my best.
Copy !req
543. I'll do what I can.
Copy !req
544. Let's find a way to get us all
back to normal as soon as possible, yeah?
Copy !req
545. Actually, we should keep searching
for a way to revert back.
Copy !req
546. - Agreed.
- Agreed.
Copy !req
547. - Agreed.
- Agreed.
