Women's World: I am the man with the most OP auxiliary class-Chapter 93: Abandoned Den

After finishing official business. We all decided to eat at the Mercenaries Union cafeteria-restaurant.

For some reason, now, not only does Dianeira stare at me closely from time to time and, upon seeing her, look away. But now Magen is behaving the same way...

Ignoring these two girls. It is better to start planning our next moves. And to plan, you first have to acquire information.

"Destan, what have you learned from the families of the abducted children?"

"Mm!! Yes!

They are children from families without surnames.

Most are abducted from their family farms around the Town .

The children just disappeared while they were playing or when it was night and they were all asleep.

Only one mother said that she found some small river stones, as if the kidnapper had left these pebbles in their boots..."

Well done, Destan! That’s pretty much what I needed to guide the conversation.

The children’s families are still inside the Town . The children still need to be under medical observation, although thanks to my magic, there can be no problems with the health of the little ones.

After Destan finished his report, it was Xifia’s turn. Their scouting group has member Kara and member Tikshna, so waiting for them to make their report is really impossible...

"The surroundings of the Town show no signs of camps and Kara did not find artifacts of any kind.

There seems to be no problem in this place.

We also didn’t find any signs of aliens in the area."

"Mmmmm. There are no caves other than the one we went to clean of snakes. The general map marks a small Sierra that rises from the mountain range to the south..."

"Vremya! Could it be the underground river we found?"

"What river?" Ragna and the others looked at me and Magen.

I gave Magen a signal to speak while I continue to enjoy the food, although it’s not really very good...

"When we were hunting the snakes, we came to what seemed to be the end of the cave. But Vremya felt a current of wind and we found a deeper path! I used my holy shield to open a wall so we could move forward and we made it to an underground river that could be used as a nearby place of refuge!"

Magen gestured and told in her own way the way in which we found the river. From a man’s point of view, she has such tenderness and cuteness that any boy would want to protect her.

Magen is like a hyperactive and mischievous younger sister with a bit of a silly girl, but on the cute and cuddly side.

"On my side I also came to a river. Vremya must have already drawn a complete map of the snake cave," Dianeira on the side confirmed.

"Mm! Maybe we should get to the underground river and follow it. We could find the bandits’ hiding place or at least clues. The small stones that Destan mentioned may have come out of this underground river."

"Good! We have a clue!"

"Mm! Good job girls. I’m going to write a very good report so that you get the highest score." Ragna folded her arms and nodded her head.

But unlike Tikshna who admires this girl, Magen who is happy with the high grades, and Destan who seems to have pink hearts in his eyes. All the rest of us gave the white eyes to this God of War.

Then, as we finished eating, everyone wrote down the things we need to get and look out for as we follow an underground river.

Caving, the science and/or sport of exploring caves, caverns and underground systems of all kinds. In my previous world it is considered a very dangerous high-risk sport.

But if I had only these eyes, I would definitely be an excellent speleologist, so much so that, if I said that I am the second best in the world, no one would dare to reaffirm that I am the first.

So, although we are all prepared to explore the underground river, there is no danger in causing a landslide or getting lost!

It’s a shame that this space ability only serves to sharpen my wind blades and stabilize my tornados for longer...

When I’ll be able to do something like teleport or create a space to store things...pfff

After finishing our dinner, we all went out to buy necessities. And then we meet at our hotel and rest or train.

In a small town like this, apart from the tavern, there is nothing else to do during the night. So it’s normal that more than ninety percent of people already lock themselves up to sleep soon after the sun sets over the horizon.

Being on the northern continent, and the capital further north, only the sun goes down and the temperature jumps backwards.

Although at home it is not noticeable, but in places in nature or small towns you must dress warmly. Especially in the ninth month of the year, when the cold seasons begin in the northern hemisphere.

So I took out the blanket that Sera gave me on my last birthday, covered myself with the blanket and sat on the hotel bed cross-legged.

So I spent another night of practice.

The next morning.

"It’s a big river"

"{Crow...}

Six li. deep"

"Approximately twenty li wide. It is a very large river"

"On the other side where I explored with Vremya it was narrower. The sample is drinkable, so there is no problem in following the river and swimming in it if necessary!"

"Cold"

"Kara is right, let’s not swim if we don’t have to or we’ll freeze. Let’s go with the raft we bought and follow the plan. Kara will control the raft with her magic, and I will use my water bubble magic to protect us while I make wind engine~"

Ragna and Magen assembled the raft. It was the hardest thing to get, a carpenter prepared it for us, but that did charge us very well!

There are no rivers or lakes nearby, water is obtained from wells, so there is no need to have water tools such as a raft.

After the raft was assembled, Dianeira tied some ropes to the raft so that she could hold us up. With the help of an axe buried in the rock of the cave with the raft tied to the bank of the underground river to the axe of Tikshna. We all got on board.

After checking that with the help of my water bubble magic the raft does not sink. Tikshna took her axe and put it in her bag. The current of the underground river was enough to propel us forward.

The direction of the river goes north. Thanks to the magical light of each of us, we can see everything around us with ease.

The walls show moss and mold thanks to the humidity, there are small herbs growing between the rocks, but none of them are medicinal, at least not to an important level for Potions.

The water is so clear that we can see the stone bottom where small fish and crabs live their lives. Thanks to the sample, we learned that water is very pure and rich in all kinds of minerals. So we are sure that it has not been contaminated by aliens.

A very pure drinking river is a necessary resource for the kingdom. Maybe after this the government will send scouts to protect this place.

From the point of Dianeira river, where we boarded the raft, I could see better the wall built in the distance. The closer we get, the more area of the blank world is revealed under my eyes.

In a short moment I could see in its entirety the shelter built on the side of the underground river. To my surprise, further ahead there is a small dock with a couple of boats moored.

There is no record of that place in Blue Crystal Grass Town . So the chances of it being a hidden hideout for bandits are very high.

After a moment of sailing on the river...

"There is a platform ahead. Is that a den?" of everyone in the group, the one with the best view is our ADC Dianeira.

"I don’t see anything"

"Silly, Dianeira has night sight, that’s why she can see beyond in the darkness of the cave"

"Crow?"

"Wait Kara, if they see you crow, they can discover us. Dianeira, are there people in sight?"

"It’s dark, there seems to be no one..."

My perception doesn’t detect anyone either...

It can’t be that the bandits have abandoned their refuge, right?

After a while, our raft arrived at the platform/dock.

By this time, we had all canceled our enlightenment by magic from a distance. Ragna was the first to jump onto the dock.

After a moment we heard Ragna’s signal and everyone else started jumping towards the dock.

"I don’t detect magic"

"I don’t detect vital signs of any kind either..."

Kara and Dianeira spoke loudly. It seems that hiding became unnecessary when they saw that no one is in the place.

Then, I spread my wings, and two fairies of light began to dance around me. With the light emitted by my wings and the fairies, the whole place was illuminated.

The pair of boats moored to the dock were a little broken. But the place was not dusty, and it seemed that it was not so long ago that it was abandoned.

It seems that we are late.
