"Are you sure?"

I shuddered. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Bastard, little ghost, can you make a difference?"

"That's not the reason!"

I was shaking not because I was scared or worried, but because I ......

I've stopped breathing for hours in this stench!

"Who knew the cavemen smelled so bad!"

The autonomic nerves, which use magic to power the body and forcibly stop breathing, are not harmful to life, but I doubt that I will be able to breathe air normally in the future.

These animals that like to burrow in the ground are like ants, and their burrows are so intricate that there is no organization at all.

Of course, there will be no road signs.

Although Ellie could vaguely sense Timia's presence, the caveman cave seemed to have deliberately avoided that place, and it was crooked that he couldn't go in that direction.

"So we might as well find Timia's location from the ground and drill straight down."

"That's why that's exposing us!"

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of that dragon"

Ellie, this little guy, is just a hard mouth in front of me, if I really leave you alone in the dragon's mouth, I won't scare you half to death.

"What!"

"Shh

Elle quickly covered her mouth.

Although cavemen do not have considerable combat power, in such caves, their senses are very keen.

Once exposed, it may attract a dragon.

"That's why Ellie, don't keep strangling my neck, I can't breathe."

"You're not breathing, are you?"

With a little spit, the two of us became less nervous.

"How far is it from Timia?"

"Probably...... 100 meters, or 10 kilometers?"

"Hey, what kind of error is this?"

"Damn it, little ghost, that's why I can only sense her position."

"Isn't there any other magic that can be used, a living person as big as Timia is here, there must be some traces left, such as smells and the like?"

"Do you think I'm a dog?"

"No one said you should do it, as long as you can find this magic, I can do it."

"Then let's take a look at Wangwang first"

"Hey, Ellie, you're trying to tease me, aren't you?"

"Shh

Ellie's detective magic sensed movement ahead and pinched my shoulder with her hand, so I quickly leaned to the side and clinged to the cave wall.

Melt us with magic, seep into the dirt like water, and then cover me and Elle with my enchantment.

"Lugaga!"

"Hello!"

A group of cavemen shouted at each other as they walked in front of us.

Their hairless, hard, but smooth skin creeps through the cave without hindrance.

It's like a kraken in the sea.

It's just that...... They didn't seem to be on good terms, and the cavemen were clearly divided into factions, pushing and shoving each other and making vicious noises.

It wasn't until they were safe enough that I lifted the spell and let the two of us re-infiltrate the cave and freeze our bodies.

"Ah~ah~ Dirty again"

Elle touched her skirt, the snow-white pleated dress was covered with mud, although it was not visible in the darkness, but the little guy was also very disappointed, after all, no girl likes dirty clothes.

"Okay, okay, I'll wash you well after I go out, don't be discouraged, okay, even I've been affected"

"Hmph...... Oh well."

Even if I didn't have to look at it, I could clearly tell that Elle was now pouting with her hands crossed.

"But is there really no magic for transformation?"

Ellie shook her head, and could feel her long, smooth hair sweeping past my ears.

"I thought it would be a good idea to change into cavemen and blend in......

"Puff"

Ellie laughed at my naivety in her heart.

"The magic that can change shape is very limited, and it can only be transformed into elements in nature, but not living organisms."

"Besides, if there really is this kind of magic, then the race that can use this magic will definitely have occupied the entire Aurora World"

What Elle said was true, if there was this kind of magic, assassination, puppet regimes and the like would be easy to achieve.

"Oh, I see!"

"What do you understand, little ghost?"

"I understand why those cavemen didn't get along just now, didn't there be a lot of cavemen who marched up from the ancient forests in the south before, bypassing the Black Fire Mountain Range and entering the wild canyon, this must be them"

"Hey~ I thought you had made a big discovery, don't overestimate those low-level creatures, they are similar to insects, even if they are in a nest, they will kill each other~"

"But you don't have that kind of knowledge in your memory?"

"Well, I guess ~ huh, after all, they're just cavemen~"

"Haha, if you were in our human world, you would definitely be judged racist for such remarks"

"Hmph~ That's why you humans ~"

Elle must have spread out her hands again with a helpless and smug expression, laughing at me.

"Wait"

At Ellie's order, he stopped, stretched out his hand and touched it, and it was indeed a fork in the road as Ellie perceived.

"Imps"

"Got it, got it"

I crouched down, picked up a handful of dirt from the ground, and kneaded it into a ball.

Then Elle constructs a spell and fuses magic into this mud ball.

The thing suddenly came to life, became sticky, crawled off my hand, fell to the ground, and groped its way out into the distance.

"But it's because we've been using this kind of slime-like low-level magic that our progress is so slow, right?"

"Little ghost, you talk a lot, if you have better magic, why don't you use it"

"Wait, shhhhh

I also made a booing motion.

"Ellie, this direction"

"Hmm"

The little one overlayed her detection magic on my side as well.

"There's nothing wrong with that"

Ellie's magic had the same result—extending in the direction I was facing, the cavern getting warmer.

"In this direction...... Forward?"

"Little ghost, you ask me what I'm doing, just don't go"

"No, no, you're a princess, of course I'll listen to you"

"Then I'll leave it to you with full responsibility."

"Uh......"

The two of us looked at each other, though we couldn't see anything in the darkness.

"Okay, then go in this direction...... But as soon as you detect the magic, stop immediately, what do you think?"

"Hmm...... Just do what the imp says."

After a few more hours of slow fumbling, the surrounding cave walls had reached noticeably hot levels, but nothing alive had been found.

Yes, even the cavemen seem to have vanished, and they don't feel their presence at all.

"Ahem"

"Kid, didn't you stop breathing?"

"But this ......"

Elle and I suddenly reacted to the familiar, pungent smell of sulfur.

Suddenly startled, I subconsciously lit up the Light Charm.

Since there was no other magical reaction around, Ellie didn't stop me.

It's just that......

When my eyes adjusted to the light, what appeared in front of my eyes was-

Scare!!!

I don't know when piles of bones have been piled up on both sides of the walls of the cave.

It's messily staggered, not like animals that have died naturally, but like they've been discarded here at random.

And those things looked like they could only be the remains of cavemen.

"My aunt, I haven't heard of cavemen eating their own kind?"

"No...... It probably wasn't the caveman's doing."

I reached out and touched the black wall of the cave next to me, the burnt dirt and the thick layer of black fire ash on top of it were definitely not caveman magic.

It's Sluka!

For some unknown reason, Sluka's magic killed the cavemen in the cave, leaving only the pile of bones with no end in sight.
