Chapter 39: Mine Entrance

"Gentlemen, welcome to the Demon's Gut Mine," Barrend hopped off the carriage first, greeting everyone like a host.

"I think the name is terrible," Kalalin followed suit, jumping down. "Existing autopsy reports have proven that a demon's digestive tract ends at the stomach, they don't have intestines, let alone excretory organs."

Lancelot and Bruto were the last to disembark, as they unloaded a heavy backpack filled with various mining equipment and supplies from the carriage.

Watching Barrend struggle with the backpack, bigger than a dwarf himself, Lancelot curiously asked:

"Isn't this thing too heavy? It would be hard to escape if we encounter danger down there."

"There's a hidden miner's rest room not far from the mine entrance," Barrend explained. "We can rest there, store supplies and mining tools, and only carry the equipment needed for exploration."

"I see," Lancelot nodded in understanding, the situation sounding much better than he had anticipated.
