Chapter 21 – Traps.
We continued walking through the cave while killing some monsters, inside of them there were only weak monsters like Slimes that were the same as those in fantasy animes, and sometimes we found some goblins, which are also easy to kill monsters.
So far it was looking like some low-level cave from some RPG, there was no sign of a "boss" like a dragon appearing here, I was hoping he wasn't here.
'Even though I know my aunt is always right where a monster might be.' She never misses a monster's location, so she probably won't miss it now, what I have now is to move on and wait for the dragon to appear.
"Be careful where you walk, from there there are many pitfalls if you pay attention it is easy to avoid them." My aunt looked very serious, so I was sure that these traps were very dangerous and that I needed to be careful.
From there I started walking just looking at the ground, the traps were very obvious, they seemed to have been made by children, they were holes with grass on top, they were lines and ropes with connected arrows and swords, it was a ridiculous thing.
But even so, I didn't dare fall into one of these traps to see the damage they could cause, I decided not to take any chances here.
Since my aunt wasn't taking any chances, I shouldn't be doing that either, right? Just have a little sense and you will see that this is the right thing to do, but even if it is the right thing, I still feel like trying one of these traps.
"Do not even think about it." My aunt seemed to have read my thoughts, she cut my mind off at once, and then said, "If you fall into one of these things, you will have to get rid of them yourself, I will not help you." She seemed to be serious, so I had to obey.
But no sane person would fall into a purpose trap, I think, right? I'm not crazy enough to do that.

It was just me thinking that, that in the next moment, a noise resounded through the cave, I didn't understand what was happening, but when I looked down, I had just stepped on a mechanism that activated, but nothing happened.
I was thinking that nothing would happen, but in the next instant, I felt something kicking me in the stomach, it was a tremendous force that made me want to vomit when it hit me.
When I fell off the floor and looked in the direction of the kick, I saw my aunt standing, and in front of my aunt, there was a giant blade stuck in the ground, a blade that looked like an ax.
"What, what, what happened here?" I was so nervous that I even had trouble speaking, but in the next instant, my aunt made a very angry face and started to speak, her voice was piercing my chest with every word she said.
She criticized me a lot for falling into a trap like this, besides continuing to say that she shouldn't have brought me to this place, but she also said it was necessary because she didn't want a girl who doesn't know how to survive in her family.
I thought to say ... 'And your sister.' But I restrained myself since that is my mother, but just like she said, that woman doesn't know how to survive, but she did it to protect me, so I love her just the same.
"Now, let's continue, the next time you activate a trap like that, I'll take a piece of your body off myself." My aunt had a cold look, it was almost as if she was ready to kill me right there.
Of course, I agreed, I didn't want to lose a part of my body, and I know that it always does what it promises.

We continued walking through the cave, but now I was being much more careful not to fall into a trap, I was not in the mood to hurt myself or to lose any part of my body.
And I was also able to stop thinking about the dragon, I was basically with my head thinking about several things at the same time, and it was driving me crazy, I should calm down a little more.
'I hope this will end quickly.' I wanted to go home soon, I was tired of staying in a place like this, I hope this battle will end quickly.
Shhh ~~
While I was lost in thought, my aunt signaled me to be quiet and not make a move, after she did that, I realized right away, this thing was already here, we had already found the dragon.
"Be quiet, don't get his attention, look at him, you'll see what will kill, don't worry, I'll help you with that, you can't fight it without knowing your weakness, especially when it's your first time. " My aunt at least is sensible.
But now is not the time for that, I have to see this monster, I hope I don't shit myself.
And when I looked at that thing, I almost ran from here because of fear, this thing was huge, I never saw anything like that.
