Monsters from Khiel's dungeon!?

"...is Lord Derp going back on that reprieve?" Kazuma groaned, not having expected him to be that stupid.

"What? No! And stop calling him that!" Sena demanded.

"Never gonna happen," Kazuma replied dully. "So what IS this about then?"

"The dungeon! Khiel's dungeon!" Sena growled. "Monsters have been appearing from it, and you were among the last to have explored it! What did you do!? I told you to keep your head down until you could find proof you weren't involved with the Devil King!"

"Us? Nothing!" Kazuma protested. "Well, other than going to explore it and purifying Khiel himself, as he was a lich, but as far as I know, we didn't do anything to cause monsters to emerge from the dungeon!"

"Oh, uh, erm..." Aqua replied awkwardly.

"...what?" Kazuma asked dangerously.

"...that purification circle I set up to purify Khiel..." Aqua said nervously.

"What about it?" Kazuma growled.

"...it... Might... Still... Be there?" she laughed sheepishly. "I put a lot of power into it to ensure Khiel went... So... It probably lasted this long and might have been a beacon for somethi- ACK!!!"

Kazuma had her by the collar, and started shaking her, Sena watching with a sweat drop. "So this is YOUR fault again! Didn't the thing with the cemetery teach you not to leave your holy magic lying around!? Didn't it!?"

"... aren't you guys going to stop him?" Sena asked the rest of the party, Yunyun nodding in agreement as she was also present.

"Hmmm? Oh, this is normal for them," Megumin said apathetically.

"I practically set my pocket watch to them going at it," Cremea agreed.

"...right, guess we need to go clean up one of Aqua's messes again," Kazuma groaned. "Lead the way Sena."

"Ri-right," Sena sweat dropped.
