Chapter 79: Resounding Echoes (Rewritten)
March grumbled as she attempted to locate that guy. She would have referred to him by his name, but there was an unspoken agreement to not use it. With the amount of trouble he was causing, he simply didn’t deserve it.
This caused her to realize how often she was at risk of getting the same treatment, but fortunately, her cute disposition kept such punishments at bay.
...Although, it wasn’t really a good punishment. She doubted he would care if people simply referred to him as that guy. In fact, it only made it more difficult for her to call out to him.
After running around the Robot Settlement for a few minutes, she started to suspect that he magically left the planet.
’Where have I not checked yet...?’
She frowned, pushing her mind to it’s utmost limits. March started to realize that her genius detective skills might not be effective in this situation.
A lightbulb went off.
A few moments later, she found herself facing the gate that led into Svarog’s lair. She crossed her arms, tapping her foot on the ground as she thought about a method to pass it.
Considering that guy wasn’t anywhere else, it was obvious that he was infiltrating Svarog’s base on his own!
However, the gate seemed practically impenetrable. It couldn’t be broken down, nobody responded when knocked on, and wouldn’t react to magic words! March was starting to believe that it was impossible to get past it. She wondered how that guy did it.
She stared up at the sky — or rather, the bottom of the Overworld — in contemplation. After a few moments, she came to a realization.
