emale adventurer left me with only that one word before running off after them.

“…haa.”

 

　I watched them run off and let out a sigh.

 

　As for this time, I was alone and I looked quite young, so they… no, it feels like her suspicion has been lifted and no extra problems occurred.
But if I had panicked and made a suspicious move there, I could have been cut off immediately…

 

 

 

　—And it was possible that they were thinking about something much worse.

 

 

　Thinking so, I trembled.

 

 

“I have to be a little more careful about moving around in the dungeon.”

 

 

 

 

　I will explore the 19th floor while steadily walking within the space dominated by silence.

 

　The endless darkness continues in front of me, and when I look back, the endless darkness continues there.
Everything is dark except the area illuminated by the spell [Light Source] that I created.
On the previous floors, I could hear the sounds from other adventurers or see lights from their lanterns and magical light from the distance or from the passages, but on this floor there is nothing.
None.

 

　As I had expected, this level seemed to be completely unpopular.

 

　The main reason for this, without a doubt, must be the ghosts that appear on this floor.

　As I walked in the darkness, I somehow thought about the adventurers who had run off earlier.

 

　Perhaps they were planning to ignore all the monsters on this floor and run through it at full speed.

 

　Monsters that only work with magic are probably that much more troublesome.
As long as magic power is finite, any adventurer can’t fight with a lot of magic.
There aren’t many people who can use magic in a practical way, either.

 

　This is why, in this dungeon, the theory is that D ranks should raise their level up to the eighteenth floor, and if they want to move up to the next rank, they should skip the nineteenth and twentieth floors and start from the twenty-first floor.

 

 

“……Ah…” (Unkown)

 

“……Hmm?”

 

 

　I thought I heard something faintly and turned around.

 

　But there was nothing there, only darkness.

 

　I stopped and focused my nerves, trying to pick up the sounds around me.

 

　My footsteps disappeared, and the sounds around me disappeared.
All I could hear was the faint sound of my breathing.

 

　I wait for a while, but there is no change.
I wondered if I was imagining things, so I continued on.

 

 

“………… Aa…… Aaa……” (Unknown)

“…”

 

 

　This time I was sure I heard it.
It was the sound of something that could not be described as male or female.

 

　I think it’s closer than before.

 

　Once again, I stopped and searched my surroundings cautiously.

 

　There was only darkness, where silence reigned.

 

　All I could hear was the sound of my breathing.
And the sound of my heart beating.

 

　I still couldn’t see anything.
I couldn’t hear anything.

 

　I don’t know why my forehead is sweating so much, but I know I am.

 

　There was no point in standing here like this.
And just when I was about to start walking again.

 

 

“… Aaa… Aaaaaaa.” (Unkown)

 

 

 

 

 

　I heard it from right behind me.
