As Fran and Alistair were talking, Mea joined in the conversation.
“That conversation just now… Does that mean Alistair will undertake the restoration of the sword?”
“Yes. That is, if the girl allows it, I will work on it”
“You should allow Alistair to repair it Fran. I mean how often do you get this kind of luck?”
Mea and Alistair look at Fran.
(Master? Is it fine?)
“…Yes, I’ll leave it to you.”
In the first place, this woman healed me and made it tremendously easy for me to use the telepathic ability without feeling any pain. I felt like I could trust her skills. Above all,Mea gave an obvious sign that she deeply trusted Alistair from her fervent expression that seemed to have come from the bottom of her heart.
“Hmm, then, please.”
“Yes, I’ll take good care of it. So, what are you guys going to do after this?”
“Yeah… about that…”
Mea turned to look at Kiara. Kiara, who led everyone all the way up to this point, was dead, and Mianoa was incapacitated. Quina was only a maid and Guendalfa is still inexperienced. Asura just lost consciousness, and Fran was not fit to be a leader yet either.
Mea was the only person who could possibly hold this group together. She must have realized it as she looked around. She turned over slowly, rubbed her red eyes lightly, and then quickly looked up.
“First of all, we have to make sure that the master of this dungeon is really dead. After that, we will destroy the core.”
“Are you sure? Wouldn’t it be a waste to destroy this large and valuable dungeon?”
Quina asked Mea, who answered Alistair’s question. But Mea nodded with certainty.
“It will only be another potential source of future disaster, especially a dungeon that spanned between two countries like this one. If we left this dungeon be it would spur a conflict between nations for ownership since a dungeon is a great source of incomes.”
Well, even if any country eventually gains ownership of this dungeon, the other countries will still remain suspicious and be on guard against them. The fact that it was used for the war will have caused it to always have that image attached to it. However, the benefits of having power over the dungeon was too great for any parties involved to give up on fighting for ownership. Unless all sides created a clear-cut mechanism for co-governance, it would surely lead to conflict at some point.
Nonetheless, there was no way the Beastman Nation and Bashar Kingdom, which were already not on speaking terms with each other, would join hands and share such an extraordinary bounty. Their relationship would most likely only worsen as times goes by. Thus, destroying the dungeon would nip any future problems in the bud. Apparently Mea thought so too.
“As a royal family, we might have to consider the use–”
“No, I agree with you.”
Also, considering the character of the Beast King, I feel like I’m in favor of destroying the dungeon. It’s like they’re going to say, “If it’s going to be a lot of trouble, let’s go ahead and destroy it instead.” Anyway, Mea seems to have decided to destroy it herself. There was no hesitation in her eyes.
“Me and Quina will go deeper. Lady Alistair, please take Fran and the others and get out first.”
