In the dark porter's lodge, everything seemed magnificently large, and hanging at the corner of the staircase opposite the main door was a portrait of Sir Antowa. Although aged, the person in the painting still looked vigorous.
Marvin surveyed the surroundings and discovered corridors on both sides, each leading to different areas. Just as he was pondering which direction to take...
"Squeak! Squeak!"
"Squeak! Squeak!"
From the darkness of the corridor, sudden squeaks of a rat echoed.
A massive red-eyed rat appeared from nowhere, squeaking frantically at them as if urging them to follow.
Not one to miss a clue, Marvin immediately led Yuniya and Levin towards the sound, and after a series of 'scoldings,' the big rat moved aside to reveal an entrance at the bottom of the corridor.
"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"
Seeing that Marvin and the others hadn't moved, the big rat, annoyed, bit down on Levin's behind.
"Ow!!!"
