"...I think it's very beautiful."
Then, Ai An, who had been silent all along, suddenly murmured something.
All eyes were on the boy, causing him to instinctively shrink back, but he quickly returned to his normal posture.
Turning her gaze away, Miyuki leaned forward again to look at the shaft not far away: "So, the current situation is that you discovered this shaft, think it might be peering into some place, and hope to go in and explore it?"
Anne nodded: "But this looks dangerous."
“Not all adventures are completely safe,” Miyuki shook her head. “Besides, this shaft itself isn’t very large in diameter, and I’ve heard there’s a pool of water at the bottom?”
Her icy gaze shifted to me, and I nodded in confirmation.
"Then things become very simple."
She untied the swords and knives from her back and held them to her arms, then walked forward without hesitation: "I'll go in first to scout ahead. Once I've confirmed that there are no problems, you can come down."
“But… what if we go in from here and end up at a dead end?” Annie hesitated.

“This should be an entrance and exit that someone deliberately left behind, which can also serve as a trap to prevent others from intruding at will.” Miyuki analyzed logically, then suddenly changed her tone, “Of course, if it really is a dead end, then it won’t be a problem for me.”
She tossed the swords and knives she was holding, then suddenly raised her head, a look of smugness, confidence, and arrogance on her face: "After you leave, I will forge my own path and escape safely from it."
"So all you need to do is wait patiently for me and make sure you are safe."
This is truly a statement in the style of [Frostsword].
But because she did indeed have enough power to turn those statements into reality, the remaining people looked at each other and did not offer any rebuttal.
