Chapter 41.2. Cleaning Up Afterward

As it turned out, it was a building a short distance away from the Chimera’s stronghold, a 5-story building with windows sealed with steel plates, like a fortress. I see a building’s passage blocked by fire shutters, lockers, and desks. And if there is a Chimera boss, it feels like it will appear on each floor.

Unfortunately, I no longer had the strength to fight. Only about three witches remained. After that, there are thugs of all kinds. Namu namu.

Let me tell you, the level did not go up. There were no mountains or oceans, and the conquest of the base ended that easily.

I don’t feel sorry for the goons, because there was a jail with iron bars in the basement, where about 15 children were locked up in poor conditions. I will only say “Zamaa” to the guys who got on the bus to Hades as a send-off.

Some kids were so skinny. They’re like skeletons.

[Cure I.]

I heal some children in a state of [Disease I]. Powwow, star-shaped light is sucked into the child, and the skinny child’s cheeks change to plump and reddish.

I rescue the children from the basement of the Chimera’s base and gather them in a large room to recover.

It’s an empty hall, a garish room, like a dojo for karate or something. It’s the room where a bunch of ruffians gather with weapons in their hands to war.

This building is no longer empty except for the kids and us. We couldn’t see the people on the bus. Ashes I need to clean later, but that’s fine.

“Thanks!”

“The pain is gone.”

“I feel lighter.”

The scrawny kids smile and thank me, and it makes me cry with sadness. It’s too much, even if it’s in a novel world. I’ve seen many prison cells full of human bones in the game, but it’s heartbreaking to see it in real life.

Grandpa Odin, who has decided that my time is up, is sipping a glass of wine and playing with the parts of the Ogre with great interest.

I have no choice, so I’m carrying the ready-to-eat food from the building’s fridge. There are many snacks for drinks. The only thing I can stomach is rice. Fortunately, their many people living here, and there was a large rice cooker.

There was, but I’m sleepy. After finishing our search, it was already 4:00 in the morning. It’s 4:00 in the morning. In my previous life, I would have had to go to work. It’s time to get up.

“Um, …… I’m going to cook rice.”

“I can fry an egg!

“I’ll make miso soup.”

The 12 years olds saw that I was out and sleepy, so they took over for me. I’m already sleepy. I’m at my limit. I’m sure my parents will worry if I don’t go home.

The kids are working hard to cook dinner.

I’m sorry, but I’m done here. What should I do with the kids? I can’t set up a company to sell coupe bread. After all, I am 9 years old.

If I leave these kids here, it’s dangerous if there are any remnants left.

I can build a robot with the [Mechanic] job, but the initial equipment is not very good. To make them stronger, I have to make the armament better, and it’s not a perpetual motion machine setting, so I didn’t use it.

My robots were hard to use because their MP was decreasing every time they did some action. If you think about it, that was a substitute for energy. Maybe I’ll get stuck soon.

“I don’t think it’s a happy event after clearing the event.”

Sitting potty on the floor, I look at the scrawny children and think. The point is. They shouldn’t be in the slums. Besides, there’s probably someone selling mithril to them, and it’s not good if we don’t leave.

“I’m not going to be happy with the event cleared.”

Miu-chan is in trouble. I only can use the dungeon for a few days. There may be people who come to check on the condition of the “Chimera”.

Honestly, if I hadn’t taken control of security. I’d have just left with anxiety. The building’s security system has already been taken care of, so there’s no problem.

Goat Head, your smartphone, and the surveillance  cameras are linked together. If I come in unprotected, I’ll get caught on  camera.

For all the hard work, it’s not very fruitful.

“I guess I’ll have to find a remote orphanage. I hope it’s not an evil orphanage. If we use [Analyze], we’ll know if it’s an evil orphanage.”

Let’s sneak out and leave it at the orphanage. We’ll tell them that we helped the orphans. I’d think that once we get out of the slums, we’ll be fine. It’s not a perfect response, and the danger to the orphans remains, but I’m 9 years old.

In the meantime, I erase the list of children at the base, both electronic and paper. The electronic one was easy because I could get in with [Unlock II] without taking control of the machine. The skill treats both the password and the electronic key as keys. The contents of the safe are keyhole, and the door is scratched up to give the appearance that people couldn’t open it.

I don’t leave a body, and I don’t leave anything on the  camera. If that’s the case. People might think it was an attack by another hostile force. Because none of the bosses survived. Instead of looking for the kids, they would look for the bosses.

I’d give up my Friday-Saturday training and dive into the dungeon every day. It’s power leveling in a short time.

I’ll have to raise my base level and leave the proficiencies for later. I’m counting on you, Grandpa Odin.
