NT: I’m so sorry for the delay… again . The Professors in my university ended up assigning me some more homework among other things and in the end I did not have much time for anything … anyway, i think, I THINK, that everything is over … for now, so… Well, I should not have another delay… I hope
NT2: Hey, look, we started with the chapter 10, and also with volume 3… great . . i’ll be adding the ilustrations of V3 so… here… that…

「Uwa ~, so this is the place where the legendary Holy Sword rested」

To the Southeast of the City of Balman was the 『Ancient Cave』 . Hidden in it was the legendary Holy Sword, which was said to only be found by following the trail of lights and which could only be wielded by a Level 90 Hero, or so the charming and glamorous woman dressed in a Mage’s tunic who was guiding the group of tourists while waving some flags .

「Excuse me, Guide-san, where is the legendary Holy Sword? Does the Hero have it?」

「The Holy Sword was never used, actually, it was sold to a street vendor by a certain Villager who didn’t know what it really was」

At the time when the Tourist Guide said that, the group of tourists, composed by Humans and Demons, began to make a fuss after hearing what had happened with the Holy Sword from the tour guide . Seeing that, the tour guide with wavy purple hair smiled slightly while blowing her nose while saying 「I knew they would react that way」 .

「Is it supposed that the Sacred Sword was sealed on an shrine, isn’t it? So… how do he get the Holy Sword out of there? I don’t think he has taken it by force」

「That Villager took her out by force at that moment」

「What- he took it out by force? Why did he do that? Did the Sword have any special meaning for him?」

「I do not know the details . I only know that that Villager managed to get it out」

After saying that, the Tour Guide, Palna, murmured 『I can not tell you the real reason why he take it out』 to herself while continuing to answer the questions of the other tourists .

「We’ll take a break of thirty minutes . An Ancient Mage put a protection on this place, so you can be sure that the Monsters will not come to attack us . If you want to explore the Cave, be sure to look for an Auxiliary to accompany you . Also, make sure you do not get carried away just by being accompanied by an Auxiliary and be careful with the Monsters」

After saying that, Palna went to the place where the Holy Sword should have been resting originally while muttering, 「…I’m so tired」 at the same time that she let out a sigh .

For the sake of converting the Ancient Cave into a tourist attraction, former adventurers were hired daily to reduce considerably the number of monsters that were in it, so that the danger of exploring it was reduced .

In addition to that, the participating Demons that came along with the other tourists had to wrap their horns with a cloth that suppressed their magic power, and some former Experienced Adventurers had even been hired to protect the tourists who separated from the group .

「… I’ll take a break」

It had been three years since Kagami left at the Casino .

Since then, the Casino, which experienced a great development during that time, began to take advantage of the Dungeons that were around the Balman as tourist attractions, allowing those who normally could not enter it due to their low level could walk freely around it, and thus create a new source of income . Of course, a careful maintenance work was required to ensure the safety of the tourists, however, the work had gone relatively well since it was also possible to earn money while Subjugating the Monsters .

However, since there was still the possibility of an incident occurring, it was almost obligatory that the group be accompanied by an Experienced Adventurer .

Normally, this was a task that was entrusted to the Adventurers hired by the Casino, however, since today there was not enough staff, Palna ended up being appointed to accompany the group .

「That David… he will definitely pay for this when I returns . He does not even think about increasing my salary of today . Don’t just go and say「I’m sure Palna-sama is the right one for this, Hohohoho!」! 」

Palna murmured as she walked through the Dungeon with frustration .

Although, in reality, David wasn’t necessarily wrong with that .

「Gyjijiji!」

「Disappear!」

Suddenly, a Blue Devil emerged from a Spawn Block of the Dungeon due to the Demonic Magic Power that had accumulated in the place, however, it disappeared instantly after being a victim of the magic attack of Palna .

The Magic that Palna had used was exactly the same one she had used three years ago . However, that enemy that would have caused many problems at that time disappeared instantly at the time when the attack of Palna, who was already at Level 143, impact him . Palna had become someone considerably powerful .

The reason why she had struggled to reach that level, and thus obtain the strength that she had now, was to be able to keep the promise she had made with everyone three years ago .

「Alice, aren’t you supposed to come today too? Hurry up…」

Palm muttered sadly as she walked through the passageway of the Cave .

Nobody answered, but she already had an idea of ​​where Alice was . Then, shortly after that, Palna finally noticed the silhouette of a certain girl, whose long red hair shone like a jewel, and who seemed to be tall enough to reach the chest of Palna, leaning against one of the walls of the cave .

Konkon . The moment he approached the girl, Palna could see that the girl seemed to be trying to break something on the wall with a hammer .

NT3: As always, if you find something weird, whatever, just tell me in the comments
