My Magical System

Secret entrance

“Our mission is to clear this area, but not necessarily to kill all mobs. We just need to kill some monsters who are wandering around the place. And, to lessen the backup of monsters that they send to other areas. This part of town has a large underground sewer. And this sewer has five entrances. The first one is the large hole near the mountain of garbage,” Ronny explained.

“Oh, the hole where we fought with rats a while ago?” Leo asked.

“Yes, that is,”

“Where is the other entrance?”

“At areas 55, 35, 43, and 60. After the other squads finish their jobs in other areas, they will advance here. And the other will advance to the other entrances as well,” Ronny said.

“So, there’s a total of five entrances. Wait. You mean, eight squads in every entrance?”

“That’s right. And after that, the real war will commence,” Ronny said while taking out something from his bag.

He took a cigarette.

.....

He secretly glanced at his nephew. But when he found out that there’s no reaction, he sighed secretly.

He really couldn’t remember anything, huh, Ronny thought.

Eman was supposed to get angry whenever he smokes. But now, his nephew was standing still and had no reaction at all.

“For now, let’s reserve our strength before the real battle begins.” He continued after blowing smoke out of his mouth.

“Okay, old man, ” Leo nodded.

When Yeman noticed that their discussion was over, he asked Uncle Ronny if it’s okay for him to check the surrounding area.

“Okay, but don’t stray too far,” Ronny worriedly answered.

When Yeman left the room, “Something odd with your nephew today,” Leo suddenly mentioned.

Cough! Cough!

“Eh, are you okay?” Leo asked worriedly.

“No, no, I’m fine,” Ronny replied.

“I think you should follow what your nephew said. To stop smoking,” Leo said dryly.

“Ahaha, it’s too late for me to stop now. This kind of vice can’t be taken lightly. If you suddenly stop, it may cause an untreatable side effect,” Ronny explained after blowing another smoke out of his mouth and nose.

“Now that you said that,” Leo started. His brows wrinkled a bit.

“Hmm, why?” Ronny asked. He felt Leo had something he wanted to tell.

“Uhmm, I remembered something when I was at the Academy. My prof used to be a heavy smoker too. One day he decided to stop that vice of him. But for some reason, news about him passing away reached our ears. That happened not even a month had passed since he stopped smoking,” Leo told him.

“Right, it’s not good to suddenly stop. But good grief for me, I’m not as a heavy smoker as your prof,” Ronny said in a relief.

“You don’t need to worry about that old man. They said ‘bad guys won’t die early’,” Leo smiled faintly after saying that.

“Hoho, I’m neither good nor bad,” Ronny said.

Ka-tak! Ka-tak!

Their dialogue stopped when Stonehard came back from searching.

“Captain, I found a secret entrance leading below in one of the rooms,” Stonehard reported.

“What?”

“Really?”

The two men paused and looked at Stonehard in surprise for what they heard. Stonehard scratches his head because of their reactions.

“Let’s check it!” Ronny suddenly suggested.

“Okay!!” The two answered at the same time.

“Eh, by the way, Leo,” Ronny said while glancing at him.

“What is it, old man?”

“Where’s your cousin?” Ronny asked.

“Oh, now that you mentioned that, I think she followed after your nephew,” Leo said.

“Haha, she wasted no time to bother him, ” Ronny said while gesturing ‘it can’t be helped’.

“Let the young ones do their thing,” Stonehard said dryly.

Then the trio decided to check the secret passage without the two youngsters.
