Alternative/Zero One's
Underground 2 and a Half Years Ago (Part I)

This happened right when we were taken to the underground world aka Underground. Access to its entry in the area we caught was right on our footing. There was an iron door like a bunker door buried in sand. The door is of automatic type and will lock if the access is turned off.

All our goods are made into one on top of the Chou sedel which is tied up and transported using a freight-carrying drone for temporary safekeeping. We also went into the underground door. The path to the bottom is not 90 degrees, but quite steep. In addition to the road access is a cement ladder, while the middle lane is used for vehicle paths.

We walked down the driveway. The door was closed and locked. Lights with high wattage are installed both on the ceiling and on the tunnel edge wall. The length of the steep road turned out to be quite a long possibility of about 60 meters. Really deep. Are they building a city underground? Then the slope of the tunnel returns to 180 degrees.

None of us dared to speak. It could be that they'll kill us right before we meet someone Kenji wants to meet.

After walking for about 10 minutes, we found the bunker door again. It was heavily guarded by soldiers with advanced rifles in their tattered clothes. Looks like this is a guard post. There is even a turret on each side of the door lips to their left and right. Just like in lab 01.

"Who are these?" Ask someone who is likely in charge of this banker door with a fierce face to the leader of our entourage.

"They are heroes from another world. They want to see Queen Theresa." Said the squad leader.

"We can't give them access to enter and of course we won't let them get out of here alive. They already know the access and location of one of the roads leading to the Underground." The person in charge said firmly. Good, now our lives are threatened. What's your plan now, Kenji?

"Tell your queen that I as the owner and the holy grail come with the holy cup." Said Kenji who suddenly interrupted the feud of the two guards.

The gatekeeper frowned and his mustache towards Kenji and then brought his face closer to Kenji's.

"Am I talking to you, son? You have no right to speak here. Let alone talking nonsense." Ask the person in charge in an intimidating tone.

"If you make it difficult for us to enter then we can also forcibly enter. I could've made your head and your men a decoration on the bunker door, try it!" Kenji said he intimidated the person in charge by banging his eel into the head of the person in charge so that the responsible father resigned.

"Oh really?" Said the gatekeeper with his face already red with emotion.

"Kenji, please calm down." I said begging to try to calm Kenji down.

"Silence sir. He's an Avenger, sir. This is also what His Majesty is looking for. That's why we're stationed outside the wall." The leader of our entourage showed Kenji's license plate to the person in charge. Whahuh? Been sought? For what?!

The person in charge then snatched the plate to see it in more detail. After considering long enough finally the person in charge made a decision.

"All right, you're allowed in." Said the person in charge then gave the plate back to the leader of the group. The person in charge also gestured to his men to open the door of the banker.

Soon the bunker door opened wide.

"Smart choice." Said Kenji walking past the banker's door in charge. The bunker guard could only look at Kenji furiously. We also went to the Underground.

Lots of traffic vehicles. Even though underground their lighting is also very good. Medium size buildings were also arranged before our eyes. There are also drones flying over the building.

"Through here" said the leader of the group who directed us to ride a large armored vehicle with tires in the form of tank tires. So large this vehicle even Chou can fit to be raised to the top. This is really no less modern than the above. Unbeknownst to me, I even enjoyed the ride on this armored vehicle despite my hands in handcuffs. Jihan is just like me.

I also turned to Hisao. It is quite natural that Kenji does not enjoy this trip but Hisao is even more worrying. Face pale.

"What's wrong?" My toot.

"Don't talk to me!" Sergey Hisao cupped his hands to his mouth. Is he drunk on land?!!!

the 20-minute ride was not felt and we had reached a building that I thought was the largest building in the Underground. The building is shaped like a cathedral rather than a white palace.

"All right, it's all down." Said the group leader. He then instructed his men to return to his post near the surface. Only a few were told to escort us. The vehicle left us and took the leader's men.

"Everyone, this way." Said the leader who then threw down his weapon and walked towards the front door of the building. There are also guards there.

"Say from which revision and your needs?" Ask the doorman who is much more polite than the one guarding the Bunker door.

"Report, I'm from the outpost search division on the surface. My need here is to report that we found what His Holiness Theresa was looking for - a hero in the Avenger job class. As a bonus we also brought the holy cup here." Obviously the leader of the group while in a position to pay respect.

"Okay, please wait a while. The tape will be sent to Your Majesty." Said the gatekeeper who seemed to be sending his report earlier directly to the person named Theresa.

"The queen is waiting for you in her room. Good job." Said the guard.The leader of the entourage was willing to leave the place. Before leaving, Kenji restrained the leader of the party and whispered something but I could hear him.

"Thank you for making it easier for us to get into the Underground." Kenji then let go of his hand.

"Sama-sama, the hero of Avenger. Glad to help you. I'm saying goodbye." Said the leader of the entourage who had finally left who might return to their post.

"Master and ladies. Can come with me here." Said one of the guards who led us into the building. We also follow this. Unfortunately Chou had to wait outside.

"Relax, we'll pick her up again" I told Jihan. Jihan could only nod at me with an anxious face.

Inside the building is clean and tidy. It even looks luxurious. I even felt like my clothes were inappropriate to get in here. We came to a door with two doors that looked like they were made of gold? Maybe?...

The door is open.

"Please, ladies and gentlemen." Said the gatekeeper. Kenji entered without hesitation followed by Hisao and Jihan. I followed them too.

"I don't think there was a hero who survived in the demon territory outside the wall for months. You even managed to bring the holy grail." Said a small-bodied woman with long black hair, dark blue eyes, and wearing a long-sleeved black dress, in her right hand carrying a fan. The woman sat on a luxurious chair and in front of her was a wide table. Could this be Theresa?..... So small!!

Kenji just silently stared flatly at Theresa.

"You're even quieter than I thought. Whereas when communicating using your assembled laptop you're quite chatty about making a deal with me." Said Theresa.

"You help me then I will help you. In accordance with the agreement." Kenji. So that's why Kenji was so serious at Banker 69. In addition to moving some data he also secretly made contact with Theresa Online. It is only fitting that they can be like they know each other. But what deal did you guys make?!!

I told him there were no secrets between us.

I pulled Kenji's robe so tight that he Kenji almost fell. I was very disappointed and very angry at what Kenji was doing behind my back.

"Since when have you agreed with her?!!!! And what is the content of your deal??!!!!! Why didn't you tell him to me?!!!!! WHAT DID YOU GUYS AGREE ON??!!!!" Indict me. My patience was instantly gone by then., I felt like slapping Kenji in the face.

"The deal is I'll help her get home to her world and the pay is you, Miss Fiona Leonheart belongs to the Underground." Answer Theresa.
