With steps leading up towards the entrance of the dungeon, Rienla made his way forward as he exited out of the darkroom. Thereafter, from behind him, the woman who he had released from captivity followed from behind him.
"..." Silent throughout the entire journey upstairs, as he exited out of the room, Rienla noted that the guards that had been standing guard just a moment ago seemed to have left their post and, in place of them—a young green-haired man stood.
"...h-huh?!" Upon noticing Rienla coming out from the dungeon, the young man hurriedly pointed his pike at him. With a nervous stance, he spoke out. "I-Intruder...!? Argh... On my first duty here too..." muttering out, he shook his head. "Don't move!"
"...a newbie knight?" Rienla tilted his head with interest as he soon shook off. "Ahem... Don't worry. I was in the dungeon with explicit permission from the Knight of the Ebony himself. So, you can be at ease."
