It can be seen that this is an ancient underground temple.

In the temple, there is a group of dark monsters that have been mutated due to the environment, judging by the number of them, there are a lot, however, these guys don't seem to have much lethality, because ...... There are no bodies here.

Already following the labyrinth passage full of traps, Alice passed through nearly three temples, the first two were all tragic traces of battle, only here, there were not many casualties, it was impossible to say that no one came, because the golden treasure chest in this temple was in an open state at the moment.

With a red base and gold trimming, the edges are inlaid with countless gems, reminiscent of the golden treasure chests in RPGs...... Alice had wondered why no one had taken the valuable-looking treasure chest away, knowing that the gems on it could be exchanged for a lot of money.

It turned out that Alice's idea was not unconsidered by other adventurers, but they tried, and the treasure chest was embedded in the ground, that is, it could not be carried away......! You can't pick it off with a weapon!

"Master, these monsters say you're the third group of guests here. As demons, the affinity of the dark monsters is proper, and Yash and Yami squatted down and communicated harmoniously with these monsters in a low voice, nodding from time to time. Then he explained to Alice. "The first one to come here was a man, but he was just passing by, and the second group of guests was a group of white-robed and armored guys who would use the nasty light magic, and they opened and took the rewards from the treasure chest"

“...... Didn't fight?" The scenery of the first two temples was very miserable, and the monsters and humans were dead and wounded. Therefore, Alice passed by with ease.

At the mention of this, Yami, who had learned something by communicating with these monsters, had a strange expression: "They said that they fought in principle...... Not because of fear of the enemy. "Monster battles also pick enemies.

"What principle?" Hearing this, Alice became interested and looked at these strange monsters.

"They only like to fight women, and besides, they are the gentlest of all monsters, not killing enemies, only spewing out a white weakly acidic liquid that corrodes their clothes. As he spoke, these monsters, with dozens of thick, black tentacles, squirmed slowly and stickily on the ground in Alice's direction...... However, the raised tentacles seemed to hesitate about something, and did not dare to approach easily.

"They claim to be the natural predators of the human profession called the Magical Girl. Fingers poked at the soft bodies of these guys, and Yami translated truthfully.

The tentacles are the natural enemies of the magical girl, and the witch is the ruler who dominates the tentacles, from the inheritance of the food chain in the mind, and forced by the aura of this silver-haired girl, the tentacle monsters are very self-aware...... The obligation passed down from their ancestors, they don't want to die so early until they complete the mission of 'magical girl 'avi'.

"Women's corrosive clothing sounds like a bad thing. In the process of discussion, Alice trampled an approaching tentacle monster under her feet, and her leather boots slowly ravaged her...... I don't know if it's Alice's illusion, and the surface of the tentacles that were stepped on turned red.

No longer pursuing the strangeness of this strange creature, Alice let go of her feet, and picked up the tentacles that had been trampled on by herself for a long time, but seemed to be becoming more and more energetic. "You two, help me translate a sentence with this tentacle......" It was difficult and troublesome to communicate with different races, but the smile on the silver-haired girl's face obviously deepened at this moment.

Yash and Yami, who were teasing these cute monsters, raised their heads when they heard this: "......?"

"Now, I'm going to lock you in, don't try to resist, just wait for someone to open it for you. Carrying the tentacles, Alice walked to the empty treasure chest: "No matter who opens the treasure chest, please spare no effort to receive each other...... If I come back and find that you didn't do what I said, then your people are dead. The spiritual power turned into pure killing intent and forcibly instilled it into the tentacle monster's mind.

As Yami and Yash finished translating, all the humanized bodies of the tentacle monsters around them suddenly shook, and among them, the body of the tentacle monster that was being carried by Alice shrank significantly. It seems to have lost its vitality...... This is the threat of the red fruit!

Yash and Yami and the tentacles silently watched as Alice threw the tentacle monster (companion) into the treasure chest without the slightest graremonity, and closed the treasure chest again, locking the tentacle monster inside. It also casts a small magical enchantment on the surface of the chest, which is more difficult to crack.

Yash reacted instantly, his expression a little dry.

Only Yami, who was naturally staying, still didn't know what it meant, so she couldn't help but step forward and ask curiously in a low voice: "Master, is there any meaning in this?"

"Yes, of course. After doing all this, the silver-haired girl clapped her hands in satisfaction. "Don't ask if the child doesn't understand, otherwise it's boring. Half-open her gray eyes, Alice turned her head to Yami, put her index finger to her lips and made a secret silent gesture, and began to sell off the door mischievously...... The witch's cute~~

Among the three "???", only Yami's head is full of question marks.
