Volume 1, Chapter 6 โ Now, to the Tower Dungeon
โYou havenโt done anything, so donโt even try talking big yetโ
When I got out of the room, the minister suddenly blurted out while waiting for us, even though I havenโt said anything yet. ๐ง๐๐ฒ๐we๐noัต๐l.๐o๐ฎ
โand the director?โ
โDonโt worry, she will come out soonโ
When I turned around, I saw Evelyn.
She had her usual composed smile as always.
โIt took a while, but it seems he will participate without problemsโ
โI apologize for this, Director. For you to overwork yourself like this-โ
โI was the one who went to his provocation. Also, itโs for the good of the country, so this is not a big dealโ
Evelyn said it wasnโt a big deal, bit after our copulation she was already in a terrible state.
I donโt know whether it was due to the long-time inactivity, or if I was too intense, but she wasnโt in a situation where she could even stand up straight just earlier.
I thought it would be bad if I went out of the room and leave her there, and really in a bad state she was, so I hurriedly applied healing magic and restored her physical strength.
Then I fixed her stained and wrinkled clothes with magic, so that when she comes out, no one will find out.
That aside, my magic is restricted.
The reason that it is restricted is of course โโ because I am a cursed child.
On the day my mother vowed to raise me as a great archmage, she thought about something and forbade me the use of the hidden magic system. ๐๐๐e๐๐ฆ๐ฃ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐๐.c๐m
The hidden magic system, to sum up, are memory manipulation, physical remodeling, and brainwashing.
Simply put, itโs something that can adversely affect people.
Also, itโs forbidden for me to kill people.
If I violate these prohibitions, I will die, or so that was โprogrammedโ in that restriction, so I canโt do anything about it.
Because it was what my mother applied personally, I was unable to break it even until today.
But donโt be mistaken. I would like to say that my mother did not put restrictions on hurting people unless I killed them.
This is for my defense, but this also has a deterrent effect.
Because healing magic can be used, you can hurt and heal as long as the person wonโt die, so I can do things like pain and torture.
I havenโt done that because I donโt have such a hobby, and everyone hasnโt done anything that bad enough to deserve that.
โWell, Gilles. As promised, will you head for the Demon Lordโs seal?
โYouโre right. Iโll go get readyโ
โBefore that, letโs talk about the Demon Lordโs seal first. Maybe youโre not studying properly.โ
Evelyn gave me an explanation, in which I replied.
โThe demon king is sealed by an intricate art formation that your grandmother made. Itโs been a hundred years, and it was nearing its limit soon.โ
โbut itโs already enough to apply a seal that can last for five years. Also, what the hell. You already have a full set of monsters here โ my family line up so to speak, so why bother me?โ
โThe art formation is not called intricate for no reason. It was so complicated that only one from the Bain lineage can decipher itโ
โYou can just say you donโt their abilities unless itโs from my lineage. Seriously, this girlโ
โIt canโt be helped. The power of the Demon Lord can be misused to rule the world after allโ
World domination, huh.
If youโre a man, itโs something you have dreamed of at least once.
โYour job is easy. Restore the seal, and weโre doneโ
โWhat if the Demon Lord has already been resurrected?โ
โThen we want you to defeat itโฆโฆwell, just stay alive if you canโ
She smiled, and I in turn, smiled back. Itโs as if itโs not that difficult from the way she sounded it to me.
However, it is hard to escape from an enemy you canโt defeat.
โNext is the tower where the Demon Lord is sealedโ
โThe Lavabelle tower?โ
โYeahโ
Tower Dungeon โLavabelle Towerโ.
The tower is said to have existed before humans had a civilization, and it was all a mystery about who made it and what it was for.
It consists of 100 floors, and the upper part of it is even higher than the clouds.
Thatโs why it can be seen from anywhere in the world.
Iโve never been out of town. Of course, I canโt be so sure about that.
โIt seems like you know it already. Well, itโs common sense.โ
โWow, Iโm thankful for that compliment. Very helpful indeedโ
โHowever, there is one problem with this dungeon.โ
โWhat is that?โ
โFor some reason, only women can enterโ
โHuh!?โ
I made a sudden indignant voice without thinking.
โThen what should I do then if women are the only ones allowed to enter!?โ
โLet me finish at the end. I may be mistaken here, but you should be an exception. Itโs because of the blood of the Bain lineage flowing on youโ
โSo, the thing that only women can enter, did it come from my grandmother?โ
โPerhapsโ
Evelyn slid her hair over her ears.
โItโs probably because she took a safety measure against the demon lordโs seal. The defensive mechanism is more probably effective if only women can enter. Well, the Entire Bain lineage are girls, and youโre the first boy in their history, so I canโt be sure nowโ
โWell, I wonder about that. Still, you should have left it to the Bain house instead of meโ
โWhat if the Bain family was destroyed? What if we were unable to repair the demon lordโs seal?โ
โThat problem has got nothing to do with meโ
There are some parts where I feel uneasy, but I guess the details are fine.
The bottom line is that there is a tower dungeon that only women can enter.
โAlso, the Lavabelle Tower is basically off limits.โ
โBecause itโs dangerous?โ
โThere seems to be a lot of treasure sleeping in the tower, and until several hundred years ago, adventurers were exploring the dungeon every day. However, because it is a tower of death that once entered one is not always sure to come back alive, countries have decided not to enter except for the purpose of investigation in the treaty.โ
โโTherefore, the public were unable to come closer?โ
โIf there is, it would be a thief with considerable skillsโ
I see.
So thatโs why the seal and the treasures of the Demon Lord has remained until now.
Howeverโฆโฆ.
What is with the โTower of Deathโ that โonce entered one is not always sure to come back aliveโ!? Iโm going there now!?
โItโs alright, donโt worry? Itโs just a legend. Also, your grandmother went and came back several timesโ
โThatโs messed up, you guysโ
So thatโs why you want me to go, not my sister.
No matter what happens to me, itโs not that big of a deal for them.
Tskโฆโฆthough there are contents that make me grind my gears, it doesnโt change the fact that a beautiful demon lord is sleeping there.
Itโs not bad to go to see her face-to-face.
โI understand the story. Iโll get to work.โ
โWeโre counting on you, Gilles-kunโ
When I nodded, a minister stepped forward.
โGilles Bain, let me tell you this, but donโt even think of wandering around once youโre out of town. Is that clear?โ
โClear~โ
โJust in case, let me give you a spell that you will suffer if you are out of the shortest distance from the city to the tower.โ
โโฆโฆYou really donโt trust me that much, arenโt yaโ
โAhahaha, Gilles-kun is Gilles-kun after allโ
Even Evelyn could only laugh in discontent.
Itโs okay. Afar all, my purpose is the beautiful demon lord!
Letโs escape appropriately and do it with her later.
It would be easy to dispel this after all.
โWell then, Gilles-kun, Iโll leave the rest to youโ
โYeah, Iโm going to do a great one for youโ
Now then, to the Tower Dungeon!โ
