"Kazuma, what happened to you? You suddenly go into a daze. Are you alright?" Moonlight frowned.

I scratch my head in embarrassment. "Uh, sorry, I suddenly felt a bit lightheaded, that's all. Everything is alright now. Nothing to worry about."

Moonlight signed and nodded. "Okay, if you say your okay, then there's no problem. We should go to Maple-san and ask her on Nekoyamsama's schedule. Stick close to me or you will get lost. The Maid's quarters ate located underground."

This time, I am not surprised. If there is a huge structure of a library underneath this place, there would be other structures available too right And with so many maids walking here and there, I won't be surprised anymore if I see a big room underground with all the maids living there peacefully.

Because I left my phone back home, I had to stick close to Moonlight to avoid getting lost in this place. Having no means of contact with the person who knows the place is quite frightening especially if there is no one to help you with. Even though I stayed in this place for quite some time, I have not fully explored this place at all and only a few limited places are more confusing and maze-like for me so I don't dare venture out what is in there. I don't want to offend Catmod in case I managed to intrude in a forbidden area.

Just like the last time in the library, we descended on a staircase, only with a slight difference because not like the staircase on the library, the staircase leading to the maid's quarters are a bit more simple but has a similar structure to ruins than to an underground passage. It was more like the staircase I have whenever I want to access my basement though I doubt it looks still the same with Yaya renovating my house brand new. I doubt the old design would pass from the intricate eyes of Yaya.

Contrary to my expectations of city-like underground, it was more like a village-like place, replace houses with rooms though. There are also windows on those rooms and we can see inside the maids were doing many activities people do at home like watch television, play on their phones, writing on their notebooks, reading books, grooming themselves and many more activities that the maids are doing with nonchalance. If only all maids are like this in the whole world, then there will be no more abused maids by arrogant young masters and the like.

Two of the idle maids outside the rooms approached and bowed to us. The first one has black hair but the tips of her hair on her bangs have a white color while the other one has an orange color hair that strikes a resemblance to orange cats.

"Welcome to the Maid's Quarters. We are the Cat Sisters. We are informed by Kuro that you two are going to arrive shortly. Kuro has already informed Maple-san on your visit. We will be the guide to the two of you so that you won't get lost in this place," the orange-haired cat girl said.

"I think we will be fine. I already visited Maple-san a few times last year and I already memorized the layout of this place," said Moonlight.

"We are sorry Master Moonlight. The layout has been changed by Nekoyamsama a few months ago due to the break-in that occurred. To avoid the same incident from occurring, we had to do a remodeling on the place. I hope you understand the situation Master Moonlight, Master Kazuma," this time, its the black-haired catgirl who explained the situation.

"I understand. Please lead the way."

The two bowed and led us to the Maid Quarters. I thought its a big place where rooms of the Maids are the only things I will see but soon, those rooms disappeared and replaced with floating runes. There are also several walls with runic engravings that I don't understand what's the use but from my guesses, it would be the walls that affect the people crossing this place. If they don't know the layout of this place, these walls would be the cause for them getting lost in this place.

The catgirls were swift and they don't just walk slowly and elegantly but walk with good pace, enough for me and Moonlight to follow. We moved from wall to wall and even passing through solid walls that looks impenetrable but were just an illusion. With the catgirls in front of us helping us traverse the confusing place, we soon arrived in a lonely place with some sort of floating orbs of light around the place. Although it was underground, it was very bright than the surface and the very striking feature of the place is the island in the center of the water formation with a large monolith of something on the very center of the island.

"Where is this place?" I asked.

"This place is the source of power that powers the whole ruins up. It's also the place that helps the monsters calm and neutral to people whenever they are near the barrier. The monolith is the one acting as a barrier to this place, acting as the boundary against monsters. If not for this monolith, this place would be also a part of the ruins itself," the black-haired cat girl explained.

"So this place is not part of the ruins?"

"It's merely the entrance of the ruins. Boundary to the safe zone and the danger zone of Earth. Without proper training and proper preparation, you will die out there. That is why Nekoyamsama is training you to avoid a bad end," Moonlight explained.

The two catgirls pressed their palms together and before I knew it, we are covered with a bubble and we floated. Moonlight did not panic and has experienced this kind of skill in the past. The bubble floated and slowly arrived on the island. As soon as the bubble touched the ground, the bubble popped and we fell into the ground Without the preparation for the landing, I fell face-first to the ground. Moonlight and the two catgirls did not even get into my situation which is pretty embarrassing but I quickly stood up to avoid causing further embarrassment.

I noticed that the island is green with lawn grass and flowers displayed. Below the Monolith is a mansion-like house that seems to be like a dollhouse in a life-sized measure. In front of the mansion is a woman with grey hair but that is not the clear distinction to this woman. Her ears made me stare at it. One of her ears is flopped down while the other one is standing upright.

"I am expecting the two of you-desu, welcome to the Monolith Island. Long-time no see Moonlight, and nice to meet you Kazuma. I am Maple, second-in-command and the guardian of this monolith.
