"What's a chant?" Arthur asked innocently.
"Well, a chant is...you know a spell which allows you to use magic effectively. This is kind of like basic knowledge..." Rosianne
"I see! But can't you just use magic without a chant?" Arthur was bewildered at the concept.
"..I mean, you can, but then your magic is very weak, and you can't use specific spells. You won't even be able to harm a D-Class monster without speaking out chants." Rosianne explained, educating Arthur.
"I've hunted an A-Class without incantation, but if I learn spells will it make my magic that much stronger and be able to shine light?" Arthur was still baffled by Rosianne's description as he never needed to use chants in order to hunt strong monsters.
"Eh-your kidding, right?!" Rosianne leapt forward, completely shocked by Arthur's claim.
"...Is it really that much of a big deal?" Arthur questioned quietly.
"Seriously, who are you?!...Forget it!" Rosianne decided to move on from the topic. She then pointed her finger in the air and placed her hand on to her side. "There are many different types of spells. Not just to brighten up a cave, that spell I had performed earlier was quite simple." She spoke passionately while adjusting her glasses.
"Can you teach me? Using spells and stuff like that." Arthur inquired innocently.
"Sure! But it requires a lot of dedication, time and memory. We can start easy with a simple fire spell." She pointed her staff to the sky.
「Огонь」
The fire shot out to the sky quickly and then dissipated as it got further. "Now you try!" Rosianne exclaimed in anticipation.
"But I can just do that without saying anything though..." Arthur then opened his palm up and stretched it towards the sky, effortlessly mimicking what Rosianne just did then but with his flame being a bit bigger and lasting a bit longer.
Rosianne was again in shock. "How did you just do that without a chant?...Are you some kind of freak?!" She said while clutching her body.
"..." Arthur replied in silence.
"People can use magic without chants to a very small scale, but it seems you produce spells effectively without chants," Rosianne explained. She wanted to further test the extent of Arthur's capability. Copy what I do without any chants of any sort.
"...Sure, not like I know any chants anyway."
Rosianne pointed her staff to the ground.
「земляная стена」
A wall of earth had grown a good defensive spell. Arthur then mimicked it easily, with a wave of his hand.
"Like this...right?" Arthur scratched the back of his head with an anxious smile.
"Arthur. You are quite impressive, aren't you? I have heard stories about people being able to use magic to such an extent without using incantations. Famously, Sedah, the hero, could as well. Of course, he's just a legend. You said you didn't have a teacher, right?"
"M-me of course not! Even if I did have a master, it wouldn't be S-Sedah, but I definitely do not have a teacher!" Arthur replied stuttering and anxious.
"..yeah, your reall-"
Craft had run up to both of them."Arthur! Rosianne!" Craft had called out. "Follow me!" he said with excitement. "Check out what me and Baro found!"
They both followed Craft, venturing deeper inside the cave. They were met with Baro, who was crouched on the ground, examining the markings. All of them then gazed up at two giant stone doors shut tightly. Both doors had engraved markings on them.
"It looks like an entrance, but to what?" Rosianne looked confused.
"It's definitely a dungeon!! Let's go in!!" Both Craft and Baro exclaimed with joy in unison.
"Wait! You two! There's no telling what's behind those doors. It could be a trap!" Rosianne told both of them to calm down. Rosianne looks at Arthur.
"Arthur?" she worriedly spoke.
Arthur looked down at the floor, his body was shaking.
"Arthur, you ok?" she asked, nervously.
Arthur smirked. He then put both his arms out in the air. He was bursting with energy!
"Let's go! There could be treasure! Let's go inside!" Arthur said excitedly, joining the other two.
"Not you too! All of you...enough already! Stop being so excited; remember what we are here for! A Direwolf, ok? We are not going inside! We could get hurt or injured!" She crossed her arms with an angry expression.
"Please, Rosianne." Craft said shyly.
"Pretty please, Rosianne!" Arthur added on.
"There could be treasure! Maybe even a cool, new staff and ancient spells all for you." Baro had further added on.
All three of them had stared at her with sad puppy eyes, trying to convince Rosianne through cuteness, pity and persuasion.
"Tch. Fine! Ok! You convinced me! Let's go already!" She now joined the other three in their excitement.
"Yes!" All three of them said in unison, high-fiving one another in celebration.
"So...how do we actually open this door?" Baro asked.
"Let me take a look at those markings." Rosianne had inspected the markings.
It read as follows:
「Тем, кто ищет вызов, скажи эти слова:
pазбуди бегемота и брось нам вызов.」
"What does it say, Rosianne?" Craft asked.
"It directly translate to 'To those that seek challenge speak these words: awaken behemoth and bring us challenge.' If I say those words, it should open."
"Please, Rosianne!" Baro had pleaded.
"I already said that I'm convinced, have some patience, will you? Ahem!" Rosianne had then spoken the words.
「Разбуди бегемота и брось нам вызов」
Just then, the doors slowly opened up. The cave had shaken a little. Torches has been place along the walls on either side and were suddenly lit up. There were stairs leading down into the dungeon. All of them descended one by one into the depths of this dungeon in hopes of finding treasure. In hopes of getting stronger. In hopes of an exciting and fun experience.
They would later come to realise their naïevity and foolishness.
