"Ice Column Dance"

Tiana cast her magic with a cane.

It's the magic of shooting out many ice columns as its name suggests.

And after a successful magical ambush, Nick and Karan pop up and fight the goblins...... they were supposed to.

"Arre?"

"... yeah, all ten of them are down"

The pile of ice released from Tiana's cane penetrated the goblin's skull precisely.

"Uh, well, shall we go next?"

Tiana used "Enemy of Magic" in a hurried face.

"No, I'm not mad at you... Well, it's my intention to check my strength, so I'll take care of Karan next time."

"Wow, okay."

And Tiana found the next flock of goblins.

Next about five. The avant-garde is just the right number to deal with.

"The eagle is going"

"Oops, I'll follow you too"

Karan raised his proud dragonbone sword.

But that oversized swing would be difficult to move in a forest with many obstacles.

Nick gets close to the goblin herd while I figure out what to do with the retrieval.

But Nick's thoughts came off like that.

"SERIAH!!!

Karan ripped off the goblins in a tearing mood.

For each thin tree, the body of the goblin is twofold.

"Gawah!!??

In the current blow, I knocked the two together and defeated them.

And I catch the three trying to escape with my eyes.

Karan breathed softly, and

"Gah!!!

From Karan's mouth, three flaming bullets jumped straight out.

One of the Dragon Tribe stunts, Brace.

Karan has fire dragon protection and can spit "Firebrace" of flame attributes.

By controlling how you breathe out, you can continue to radiate fire or sporadically let it out like a fireball.

"Yoshi! It's over, Zo!

Goblin burned black as soon as Karan's brace hit him.

Nick didn't even have a gap in his hand and quickly knocked it down.

"Oh, that's amazing."

"Great move, I thought."

Tiana and Zem praise Karan for finishing the job.

"Suh, that's amazing."

"Ooh! I'll take care of the avant-garde, Lo!

"That's easy...... I'm the only one who hasn't done much good...?

So far, Nick hasn't done a lot of work.

Nick felt, "It's easy... it's too easy"

But Nick's self-awareness and that of the other members were as if they were different.

"Huh? 'Cause we left it up to Nick... hey?

"Yeah, I'm sorry too."

"Oh, yeah, Zo"

To the words, Nick twisted his neck.

"Really?

"That's right. The choice of the labyrinth, the goal, nothing could have been decided without Nick. And there's more..."

Tiana, saying so, began to finger and count what Nick had done.

On the way to this labyrinth, Nick told me all sorts of things.

Dealing with the characteristics and geography of the labyrinth and the demons that emerge.

But besides that, he also talked about public knowledge and common sense in labyrinth cities.

"Tiana, isn't that a pretty good robe?

"Yeah, well, it was paid for at the aristocratic school..."

"Hide, hide. Weave another feather on top of something. It's a lot of trouble being seen by the rich."

"Huh."

"It's a pain in the ass if you're wearing better clothes than the side that gets the job. Not just robes, but weapons and protective equipment."

"Ah."

Tiana noticed some of her past lapses.

Tiana had been turned down from nowhere when she applied for a job as a mage.

When she headed for the interview, Tiana was wearing the same robe as she is now.

It wasn't just the magician's talent overflowing.

I noticed myself keeping people away.

"... I'll be careful."

"Hmm? No, it's not enough to be that weird... And Zem."

"What is it, Mr. Nick?

"You, too... I don't know if you realize it or not, but it's a broken cleric round out. He's not crucified, but he's wearing a cassock, so he finds out... You might as well wear something else, not a cassock, or dive into another faction's temple and get a crucifix."

"What!?

And there were other "survivor" adventures built on Nick's knowledge, such as teaching him caution when taking a break on a trip, manners in the streets, or planning what to do when he found demons such as goblins.

"... so I hope you don't mind"

To Tiana's words, Nick twisted his neck more and more.

"... not as big a deal as you say? It's... it's better if you listen to the long story."

Nick is aware of his loud self.

Often I was able to get a wussa at a previous party.

The C-level party where Nick was kicked out [Martial Arts Hundreds] had bad characteristics. Weapon masters, shieldmen, samurai, archers, and light warriors are all members who can only physically attack.

I couldn't go above grade B because of that imbalance, but the strength of the individual was something that never even took a pull on an A-level adventurer. Instead, he was out of common sense when he reached class C by force alone without relying on magic.

In such a brain-muscle party, Nick was smaller in stature than the rest of the members, and his strength in defeating demons was inferior by one or two steps. He bought various chores out of himself for it, or he was searching for a way to fill a hole where no magician was. That was all useful, but the other members didn't like Nick telling them that. I even thought in the first place that I would be able to place an order on Nick with inferior strength.

To keep those people out of the mood, Nick arranged for a variety of chores ahead of time, including purchasing medicinal herbs, magic aids, and planning a labyrinth exploration. I tried to create my own situation where it would be "easier to listen to what I say". Still, Nick was complained about something. So the members who listen to me honestly were not easy to do. And for both newcomers, Nick was the best guide and senior.

"How's Karan? Easy or hard to do, you know?

"Wow, are you a weasel?

Karan wandered when Nick told him the story.

"... hey, confused u"

"Where?

"They don't ask me if I have an opinion or a story about the party I was at before. Where are you going? Say hello and do as you say, ta"

To Karan's explanation, Nick flashed his face.

In fact, from Nick's eyes, Karan didn't know anything for the experience.

A little better than Tiana or Zem, to that extent.

I even remembered the novice labyrinths, such as the Little Ghost Forest (Shikirin) and the Muddy Sekikan (Nensuikan), and I never even collected them after defeating the demons.

This is not what a normal adventurer would do. Even if I say I will stand somewhat arm, if I am an adventurer, it will be a disadvantage to the party later if I do not make them remember the basics.

But on the contrary, ignorance and stupidity are more convenient if you are not going to leave them at the party forever, but rather to trick them into enrolling them to kill them.

But whoever thinks about that gets a revulsion.

Karan was mistakenly frightened of Nick's murder in the face.

"Oh, sorry."

"It's not your fault..."

"eagle...... can only fight i"

"No... right, it's not good to have to fight"

Karan thinks he's pissed off, and he nags with a sober face.

But I was surprised at Nick's words that followed.

"So remember. I'll tell you what I can tell you, but I'm not a spoiler."

"... is it good ka? This kind of thing is easy to teach..."

"Good or bad, I'm in trouble if you don't. You remember the first time you said you were gonna throw a party, you said you suspected me."

"Un"

"You have to have knowledge or wisdom to doubt it. So be quick. I don't know if this guy's acting funny or what he's talking about. That's what I need to be at this party. All right?"

That's it. Nick regretted "Shit".

Because there were tears in Karan's eyes.

"Yes, no, that's not great right now. I didn't mean to kick you out..."

"Oh, yeah, yeah."

Tiana shrugged her shoulder when she saw the troubled Nick.

"I'm not saying anything wild. Hold on, Leader."

"Hey, what...? And anyway, it was bad, Karan"

"Yes, good, nothing. More than that, the Zo that continues the adventure!

Karan shouted so in a temper.

Leaving my hometown, for the first time, I was asked to be a "full adventurer".

Not treating you like a customer, not preying on fraud.

Karan's heart was filled with the satisfaction that he could stay here.
