[At the orphanage]

[Ray point of view]

"Done" [Serpie]

"With this, we are always connected with you" [Calypso Tree]

"Try not to hurt yourself so much" [Housey]

The three magic cores inside the orphanage really have their own personality aren't they. Serpie is a mix of Mr Ash and Charlotte when it comes to his pattern of speech, while Calypso Tree is a mix of Farhah and the Fairy Calypso. As for Housey, it's mix of Mr Ash and Mr Claude. The magic core (Housey and Calypso Tree) are nothing more than two floating magic cores in the beginning, but now, it's almost like they're living entity of themselves, communicating like this is all normal. I'm sure any outsider seeing the sight of three floating magic cores talking with us will be in shock, scratching their head and trying to make sense of what's happening, but for us, it's now a normal phenomenon

Before exploring the underground drainage of the country, we went to the orphanage for two things.

1) As to let the three magic cores attach their mana signature onto our phones, that way we can always have a strong connection no matter what. We might loose connection because of the barrier, or simply because we are too deep underground. Maybe something unexpected will happen that can interfere with our line. So it's a good idea to do this, like a safe line for us all

2) Since the plan will involve the rabbit golem created by Mr Ash, Bobunny, we plan on getting a clone of Bobunny each. Bobunny main strength isn't that of his physical strength or magical power. In fact, it's weak like that of a C rank monster, but don't let that fool you. It makes up for it with it explosive cloning ability. Even if it weak individually, you don't want to get barrage by thousand of same attack at the same time

With Bobunny's cloning ability, we will explore the underground drainage system of Estel, and try to find the way to connect with the outside world. That, as well as the castle

"This is the ration that I can procure" [Kebab stall owner]

"Take this potion as well. Make good use of it" [Merchant]

"I can't give anything that will prove useful, so at least take this light magic stone to illuminate yourself once you're underground" [Clothing shop Aunty]

"That's actually useful" [Crow]

"Agree. If only we can replicate it using the Goddess Treasure Chest" [Claude]

"Well, it was with Princess Diana the last time, so it's somewhere inside the castle now" [Liyana]

"I hope the first prince didn't find out where Princess Diana hide the treasure chest" [Filvisar]

"I can assure you that it's place somewhere safe, but given how much time have passed, I can't help but to feel anxious as well" [Vampire Guard E]

Since the Goddess Treasure Chest is capable of replicating anything put inside of it, it's an item of legendary status. It was gifted by Mr Ash to Princess Diana during the debutante party back then, and now, it's a joint property of both Princess Diana and the orphanage.

~Chuckle~

Bobunny chuckle loudly

"Bobunny is comparing itself with the Goddess Treasure Chest" [Housey]

"True... Both can multiply... Kinda" [Cupid]

"Bobunny can only multiply itself, while the Goddess Treasure Chest can multiply anything put inside of it. Quite similar and different at the same time" [Mile]

"No matter, both are there to help us"

~Chuckle~

Bobunny chuckle happily as the orphans started to praise the crystal bunnies.

"Excuse me. Sorry I'm late" [Noble Guard]

The noble guard of the Duke house come, bringing with him the underground drainage map

"Please, make this a secret" [Noble Guard]

He volunteered himself to get a copy of the map stored inside the Duke house. Given the situation he is in, he will be consider lucky if getting fired is the only consequence he got, stealing from a prestigious noble house. Most likely not, as his pale face tell me the consequence will be a heavy one

"Appreciate it. We have the map we created long back, but with this, it will surely help" [Erinmorlin]

"Everyone, no matter what, this is to be kept a secret! Understood!" [Ram]

"OF COURSE"

None of us wanted the noble guard to get any sort of punishment, so we will keep quiet about it

"I'll make a copy of it, but I'll only give the copy to the leader as to prevent the copies from finding himself into the Duke house. The leader, please make sure that you burn the copies once it serve the purpose" [Lisa]

Right now, we are dividing ourselves into four large groups, and depending on where we start and the situation once we are inside the drainage system, we will further divide ourselves into smaller groups, but minimum of four people is a must in any given situation.

Roaming monster, or worse, roaming devil, or even the Doppelganger might be there, awaiting us, that's the assumption that we made going inside the drainage system.

The drainage system is a vast one, one that even the Duke themselves who controls the water drainage system of the country didn't know each and every corner of it. Based on the assumption that the Loa Carcolh seven years ago was a monster from the Rock and Sea dungeon, then we can assume that the the Rock and Sea dungeon and the Drainage system are connected, most likely by the ancient tunnel. If we can (or Bobunny can) find the path, then we will be able to contact with the outside world, and hopefully, even gaining access inside the castle and found out what actually happened

"Is everyone ready?" [Ram]

"RIGHT!" "YES" "ALWAYS READY"

"Listen, the core of this operation will be Bobunny, and you guys are assisting it in any way possible, so if you find yourself in danger, don't hesitate to fall back! Of course, this is an important operation, but so does your life!" [Ram]

"May the Goddess, be with you" [Crow]

"RIGHT!"

With a powerful shout, we get ourselves ready and head to the aforementioned position
