Dungeon Expedition: Entrance

Forests had forest monsters. Deserts had desert monsters. And seas had sea monsters. But our journey by ship was uneventful.

Perhaps it would’ve been different for a smaller boat, but monsters wouldn’t attack the type of large vessels nobles owned—unless the monsters themselves were enormous. Smaller boats were outfitted with protective measures, such as inverted hooks to prevent sea monsters from climbing onto the deck. It was also customary to scatter monster-repelling herbs around vessels, a practice refined over generations of fishing.

People had settled in this region over a thousand years ago. Even as nations had come and gone, the inhabitants had remained, working hard to make the environment safer. As a result, monsters rarely approached even small boats anymore. In such conditions, there wasn’t much for me to do aside from practicing magic solo, sparring with Viro to try and raise my Dagger Mastery to Level 4, and occasionally chatting with the friends of the knight I’d saved before.

“Miss Adventurer! A word?” a knight called out.

“Sure,” I replied.

Knights, who had chosen combat as their profession, didn’t seem to hold any bias against adventurers. I’d grown to look like a fourteen-year-old, so the younger knights didn’t treat me as a child. They approached me one after another, wanting to know my name and asking questions about my hobbies.

Why would they ask me about hobbies, of all things? My name, I could understand, but...

“Uh, my hobby is...gathering medicinal herbs?” I ventured. I at least had the sense not to say I mixed poisons in my spare time.

“Of course a renowned adventurer would be well-versed in medicine as well!”

Well, I had studied medicine under Cere’zhula, so I was in fact well-versed in it, yes. But why were the young knights’ faces turning red? The knight I’d saved on the road eventually showed up and apologized to me as he dragged them away.

“I love having you around, Alia,” Mira said with a smile, placing a hand on my shoulder from behind. “People leave me alone.”

I tilted my head in confusion, but she simply smiled again without offering an explanation and walked off toward the ship’s dining hall.

The ship’s voyage had been uneventful enough for the knights to relax, but I still hadn’t gotten a chance to speak with Elena again. It had been a while... But, thinking about it, it was only natural. I was just an adventurer, after all, and one typically needed an official reason to meet with a princess. And even if I had one, Prince Amor would likely not allow his niece to meet with an adventurer.

How did I know that? Well, Elena’s guardian maiden—Chloe—had remembered me, come to ask about my well-being, and told me about Elena’s situation. She’d been present at the lakeside castle during Elena’s recuperation and had been Elena’s caretaker since the princess’s infancy. Elena trusted her fully.

I remembered Chloe because she’d immediately trusted my assessment when Elena had been kidnapped. Come to think of it, she’d been the one to make arrangements for me to be Elena’s sole attendant.
