Chapter 477: 477
Chapter 477 What’s Inside My [Storage]
I decided to organize my [Storage] for the first time in a while .
My [Storage] was filled with a good number of dangerous things . Black balls that explode on a given keyword, a purple Dummy Core, a pure Dungeon Core I got from [Father], and an orichalcum blade . Those were just the icing on top of the cake that was my treasure horde . There were even a few unused spell scrolls I figured I’d get around to reading eventually .
“Huh?”
… At least, that’s what should have been in there .
When I turned my [Storage] on its head to dump everything out, nothing came out . Only that dungeon core I got from [Father] came tumbling out . That’s it .
“… What’s going on?”
Fortunately, I was wearing my godly beddings—the [Godly Pajamas] as my jersey and [Godly Alarm Clock] as my wristwatch, so those weren’t missing . The [Godly Comforter] and [Godly Blanket] were held on to by Rokuko, so those were safe as well .
Still though, where’d everything go? There weren’t any of the dishes Kinue-san prepared or the blade golems I’d made in it either .
I put my arm into [Storage] to fumble around and try to find anything else, but there wasn’t anything there . I was usually able to feel whatever’s inside just by thinking about it though .
I tried looking inside . The open mouth to the [Storage] was just black space, but maybe I could see inside if I put my head in…? It might stop time to just my head, though, causing a bit of an issue with the rest of my body . IT’d be dangerous to try it alone .
Looks like I’ll need someone to stand by and rescue me .
“Which is why you want me to be here, huh . ”
“You’re the person I can rely on for things like this, Rokuko . I’ll be moving my hand as I stick my head into the [Storage], so pull me out immediately if it stops moving . ”
“Got it . ”
Which is why I decided to have Rokuko be my insurance as I take a look inside .
… Hmm, I put my head in, but I couldn’t see anything .
There wasn’t any sound or light .
Suddenly, light returned to me . It appeared that Rokuko pulled me back out . Moreover, I was a bit startled by feeling soft taps on my shoulder alongside a weird sensation of me also being hit there at the same time .
“Owah…!? Wait, why so soon? It hadn’t even been five seconds . ”
“Are you okay, Kehma? You stopped moving . For about fifteen seconds . ”
“Eh, really?”
I didn’t feel like I’d stopped doing it, but I guess I wasn’t even able to realize I stopped? It’s a good thing I decided to get Rokuko first .
Also, it seems like she’d tapped my shoulder several times without me responding .
Wait, was it that the sensations from her doing that built up and came to me all at once? Like the sensations were frozen in time and were recognized collectively after I backed out…? It was hard to describe how strange and weird it felt .
“It’s unexpected dangerous… [Storage], that is . ”
“You got that right . ”
But like, where did everything else go off to for just that Dungeon Core to be left behind?
It shouldn’t be possible for a hole to open up in the [Storage]… No, I don’t really know how it works at all, so maybe it was possible?
“Hey, Kehma . This is the core Otou-sama gave you, right? You still had it?”
“Hm? Yeah . If all I want to do is raise the level of [Super Transformation], Dummy Cores are enough for that . ”
Rokuko spoke while petting the extra Dungeon Core .
“… Maybe your stuff is in this?”
“Eh?”
“I just mean that, well, I have a Master Room, right? Maybe this core has one too!”
Rokuko slapped her hand down onto it . Her reasoning was sound enough .
“… I see . It’s not a Dummy Core . It’s an actual core . ”

“In that case, it could be convenient since there would be more space to store things… That said, looking inside might be a problem . ”
As if trying to get inside, Rokuko poked the Dungeon Core as she spoke .
I wonder if another core could enter? … Is what I thought, but then I recalled it being in Orange’s Dungeon Core . I guess so, then?1
“I wonder if I can’t enter by just imagining a door opening? Kehma, you try too!”
“S-Sure . ”
I put my hand on the opposite side of the core that Rokuko did, matching her… Picturing the feeling of entering Rokuko’s Master Room, I pushed a small strand of magical power into the Dungeon Core .
Wait . I’m trying to pry it open, maybe I should use more?
As I continued to increase the amount of magical power I was pouring into it, the while light shining from the core visibly magnified .
… Is that it? That’s all?
“Hmm, I feel like we just need a biiiit more~”
“I’d at least like to get back my orichalcum sword . ”
When Rokuko also put some of her magical power into it, the core’s light turned to a soft golden hue .
It feels divine… but also like there’s something wrong with it . I mean, this doesn’t happen when I enter Rokuko’s Master Room or anything, right?
“Hey, Rokuko?”
“Hmm?”
“What should we do now?”
“Eh? Umm, of course we should… uhh… I wonder?”
Rokuko tilted her head to the side . Oi .

Just then, the Dungeon Core’s light intensified .
“… Maybe we should stop?”
“How strange . I thought so as well and I’m still trying to stop, but it won’t let me?”
“… I can’t take my hands away!?”
It was like a vacuum cleaner sucking my hands onto it, making it so that I couldn’t pull away . My magical power was flowing freely into it . It was just a tiny amount, though .
“Rokuko, are you okay?”
“Ah, yeah . There’s nothing wrong with my hands, I just can’t move them . By the way, it’s a bit sudden, but I’m getting the urge to bathe in the onsen, can’t we?”
“We can’t . ”
What are you saying when you can’t even move your hands? What side are you planning on entering, the men’s or women’s? There’s no mixed bathing at our inn .
“Mmm, no good . What should we do then?”
“… Ah . Maybe you could leave with the dungeon function?”
“There’s also your [Super Transformation] . Ah, but, umm… maybe we could stay like this a while longer? Look, we can’t leave each other~?”
Her hands still on the Dungeon Core, Rokuko moved her face closer to mine .
At that moment, the Dungeon Core suddenly shined brightly .
“Uoh, so bright!?”
“Hyah!?”
As soon as I moved my hands to shield my eyes, the Dungeon Core let out a popping sound . It seemed to float up into midair . It then promptly fell right into my [Storage] I’d left open .
A freakin’ godray of light rose from my [Storage] before settling down .

“… There’re no marks on the ceiling… What the heck just happened…?”
“No idea… maybe your [Storage]’s stuff is back though?”
“Everything but the core was gone from the start though… but maybe?”
I put my hand into my [Storage] .
… Mmm, there’s a soft and warm feeling . Hmm?
—Just as I thought that, I felt something slimy tickle my hand .
“Whyah!? W-What!?”
“Eh—what’s wrong, Kehma!?”
“Th-There’s something in my [Storage]!! It licked my hand…!?”
“Eeeh, but [Storage] stops creatures from moving? Let me try too . ”
With that, Rokuko put her hand into my [Storage] and—
“Wawawah!? Wh-What is it!?”
“Wha—!? Wha—-!? There’s something in there!!”
“What’s this, what’s this!? Eh, there’s something smooth . Hair?”
Rokuko felt around my [Storage] .
“!? It grabbed me!? K-Kehma, help!”
“I-I’ve got you!”
I pulled Rokuko back forcibly . With that—
—A black-haired girl who was gripping onto Rokuko’s hand appeared from my [Storage] .
