My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 115.1

Pixie Queen

[Tetetete, teretete♪]

[Sukiyaki Red! (Ka!)]

[Saury… Blue! (Kir!)]

[Curry… Yellow it is! (Dodon)]

[Stuffed Cabbage… Green! (Kira!)]

[Fried Food Pink!… Transformation! (Pirorin)]

[[[Side Dish Sentai! Youhanger!! (Chudon!)]]]

(((Pokan…)))

The Pixies were making a racket, so it was noisy. It's like when children are noisy, it's best to let them watch TV, I thought. I showed them a video of a sentai show. However, whether they couldn't understand the content, all 5 opened their mouths, their faces blank.

Well, you five are also something. If you understand just from the names like [Yousei Sentai Pixie V], that's something. Well, I hope for the future activities of Pixie V.

And I gave them names. In order: Rouge, Azure, Jaune, Veil, Rose. If you get it just from the names, you're quite something. Well, I'll have Pixie V watch the video, and I'll dive back into the 12th underground floor.

Because… the Pixies are so cute! I want to increase the number of lovely Pixies even more! The collector's spirit has ignited in me.

"Yes… the Pixies are getting controlled by some dominating force, robbed of their will, and forced to serve as the watchdogs of this dungeon. So, I must somehow rescue them! (click!)"

…..

And so, I reached the 12th floor.

[[Shuriiin! Kyuriiii~n!]]

(Oh, there they are… slurp)

Peeking stealthily from the shadows of the corridor, I saw 2 Pixies flying.

If I respect their rights, I have to call them two people rather than two animals.

(Alright… let the trap induction operation begin!)

[(Kotori…)]

On the dungeon floor, I placed a resin cup. Inside was their favorite honey tea.

….

""Pi…? Pipii~!?"

"Yes, unfortunately. Perhaps enticed by the delicious scent of honey tea, but the resin cup was coated with a powerful adhesive. No worries, though. I'll make you my companions soon…"

Zugogogogogogo…

……….josei

"Hmm… I've managed to convert 7 Pixies into cards in two hours. In terms of hunting efficiency, it's quite low…"

It was a trap induction operation designed to avoid harming the Pixies. However, in terms of efficiency, it was quite poor. The time it took for the Pixies to notice the honey tea and approach was considerable.

"Well, it's a bit rough, but maybe capturing them in battle would be faster… Huh?"

While wandering through the 12th floor searching Pixies, the path ahead suddenly opened up. The corridor continued, but the walls and ceiling disappeared, creating a situation like a covered bridge.

"(Sutetetete… so… looking around… Oh…!)"

Approaching the end of the interrupted corridor and peeking out only my face, I looked around. There, a beautiful scene reminiscent of a three-dimensional Western-style antique garden unfolded.

"Huh, there's even clean water… and plants!"

On both sides of the covered bridge-like corridor, there were stone balustrades, some of which were crumbling. The left and right sides of the corridor were lower, about waist height, and in the distance, stairs for descent were visible.

"I see, the scenery is quite different from before. Usually, it's like a square or a sewer… Alright."

I climbed over the railing of the balustrade and descended. The posture after landing was low, agile, and stealthy. Beyond a partially collapsed stone pavilion, a place with a plaza by the water and blooming flowers came into view.

Vines crawled along the walls, and along the wall, there were evenly spaced moss-covered fountains and low statues. Thin mist lingered there, illuminated by the dungeon's pale blue light. It was quite a picturesque view.

"However, it's the first time I've seen flowers and grass in the dungeon… Huh!?"

While crouching and peering into the hall from behind the debris of a collapsed stone pillar, my eyes captured the sight of an unbelievable presence.

Pixies were fluttering around, and in the center, there was a Pixie of a size more than double that of the others, flying slowly with lowered eyes. It had long, radiant golden hair, a glamorous floral crown on her head, and its body was covered in a dazzlingly pure white leotard-like garment.

(What?! That Pixie is amazing! It's incredibly beautiful! I really want it!!)

"(Gara…) Ah, shoot!"

Dazzled by the glamorous Pixie, I inadvertently leaned forward too much.

"(Ki!)"

"Pipiiii!"

"""(Ki!)"""

At that moment, the Pixie who noticed me let out a loud scream, and the other Pixies all turned their sharp gazes toward me.

"Uh-oh, this is bad! Ninja Art: Acid Smell Concealment Technique! (Bashuuuuu!)"

For now, I disappeared amidst the yellow acidic mist that billowed forth and made my escape.
