A long sword whose silver glow is gleamed by the light leaking from the dungeon.

Holding that thin, heavy sword in one hand, he stepped into the moment he saw a monster--!

Haha!

The Skeleton, which was also in the shape of a swordsman, crashed into the core of his chest before even holding a weapon.

That was the Sword Saint 's sword technique. I went through a mock battle with Amy, so I won't lose track of it, but it's hard to fight with it.

Of course, I didn't mind using Dark Magic.

—— Our [Nightingale Pledge] was shown in the tenth tier with reference to the battle between Kyle and the [Lion's Fang].

First, Kyle in the front row quickly defeats almost all enemies as soon as he finds them.

Each of the other three is Kyle's assistant.

I knew attack magic and healing magic, but the second [Swordsman] Lana had a special standing position.

No matter how strong I was, I didn't think my sword skills with Kyle were anything compared...

Left, coming.

"All right."

Upon Edith's report, Kyle defeats the enemy in front of him again, and Lana falls to the left instead.

Lana pauses at the edge of the attack and uses a small shield (Buckler) attached to the back of her hand to wield the Skeleton Sword.

Lana slammed the full swing of her longsword into her empty-handed hand.

Naturally, the skeleton that spilled the prey from his hand was round, and Lana destroyed the skeleton's core with a thrust of her body.

It was a good thing, but I hadn't missed any of the mid-level monsters.

"The movements are similar. I guess that's what my ancestors of the Sword Saint did."

In Janet's words, Emmy and I nodded.

Whether it was before or after the attack, the way it was dealt with was very similar.

After that, Magician Edith supported Lana, and Guru Joey stopped behind.

I suddenly put myself in the shape of Joey.

All right, that's it.

Sibira declares from behind and Janet nods.

I guess all the enemies were gone from the range of their spotting magic.

"Huh... how was it?"

"No, it's a splendid thing." Do you usually not dive into the middle layer? "

"No, except that you can fight and that you are always ready." To be honest, the mid-level floor boss has been nervous ever since he fought in the first dungeon. "

"So that's it. Then it's our turn." If it's possible, you can take part in the fight. "

"Yeah, I got it."

We have seen their battle to the fullest.

Now it's our turn... but this time it's a little different on our own.

The door of the mid-floor boss opens.

Speaking of which, this is the first time a couple of people have joined the party.

The size of the party is basically recommended to be about three to six people. There shouldn't have been a party that deviated too much from that.

I can put about ten people in at the same time, but I don't really recommend it because it closes suddenly.

"Is that so?" I think it would be safer if there were a large group. "

Do you want to hear the gigantic battle of the party where twenty guards lined up in a lineup, and the magic cage appeared before the rear guard entered?

……

"I just want to avoid imagining that I'm going to challenge that giant's opponent with only the basic swordsman..."

Emma can also watch in the last row ~

"The liver is set differently." I'm looking forward to it. "

I don't think Kyle and the others know that Emma is a goddess, but once again I think that the doctrine of the "Sun Goddess" and the reaction of Shivira and Emma are very different.

Let's let Charlotte tell us about this next time.

"[Wind Barrier]... All right, Emmy, I'll take care of the rest."

I'll take care of it!

When Emmy smiled and put up a big shield, he bent over and started counting down.

Three, Two, One

The moment we stepped in, we all stepped through the door.

The first thing I saw was a huge skeleton's back. Is that the floor boss?

The next thing I saw was a group of black skeletons lining up around them.

Emmy approached suddenly before the big bone giant could look back.

Looking closer, the lower layer of Sailis was not as blue as Giganto, but it was quite large. Emmy's head was around the opponent's waist.

"[Flame Strike]. Hmm, looks like we can defeat it without any problems." Can I ignore the bow? "

"If you don't get away from me, you'll be fine." I need the guy who's after Amy. "

Janet turns her back on me as she attacks the black skeleton.

Looks like all of the bow attacks were on the wind barrier.

Looks like Kyle and the others are dealing with a lot of skeletons.

You finally got me into the fight.

There's a lot of them, so some of them are coming for me.

"Russell, it's coming!"

“No problem”

Respond lightly to Kyle, who noticed our movements.

From what I've seen, it looks like it's not much different from a normal skeleton.

The moment the incoming black human bone's perforation glows demonically, and I shake my arm to cut off my head —— I wave my sword across the opponent's shoulder!

It's a foolish attack that doesn't use feint or intimidation.

If the opponent's sword isn't within range, it won't react, meaning that when it's in position, my attack will also be within range.

Besides, it was like old Vince.

Power is strong and it moves fast, but there isn't much technology.

"--Because of that!"

While we were cleaning up the fish around us, the main Emmy was bouncing off the floor bosses' stomping attacks with his shields.

I suppressed the floor boss's feet as I tried to stand up with my shield, and I jumped with my momentum and pushed the Dragon Fang Giant Sword into the boss's chest!

... I can't fight that way.

Fire Javelin!

Shivira didn't put her hair in it, and she... smashed the spear of fire in half a place.

Immediately after I thought about what I was aiming for, the hand of a bone that was trying to catch Emmy's body was just blown up by the flames that Shivira had shot.

"His core is so stiff, just keep beating it up."

I-I see!

Releasing her hand from the shield, Emmy began to slap the Dragon Fang Sword in both hands as if it were a woodcutter.

Unlike metals and rocks, the sound of a wobbly blow was like, "Geez, geez! 'and it rang loudly.

Meanwhile, Shivira was suppressing the movement by appearing and falling stone plates near the floor boss that was trying to stand up.

Just as I was trying to hold back Emmy with my arms raised, the magic of fire flew from Janet as well.

Finally, the floor boss of the bone cramped heavily, losing his strength and collapsing.

The archers around her, Janet and Sybil, were all finished.

[Extra Heel Link] Everyone's fine.

Seeing that everyone was nodding lightly, Kyle and the others looked back.

With their eyes wide open, they immediately turned to us and began to tease us.

"Russell, your sword is not really a decoration!" I didn't know what it was like for a leader to be a [Saint], but I'm convinced of this, I've never seen anything like it! "

"The first Shivira was a mage to use a sword." I had a cane at first, but I stopped because it didn't fit my sex. "

Russell's sword is the number one disciple of our beautiful genius girl!

"You don't have to tell me once to identify yourself as the master." Well, I only had it until just before I became a [Saint]. Something... I think I was too trapped in the image. "

Edith was unexpectedly the first to react to this.

Sword! Sibira-san uses both sword and magic!

"That's right. I'm not using Russell or myself for nothing." You don't have to do this. "

Edith turned to Kyle, who raised his mouth and nodded.

... maybe.

Are the four of you in the same class?

Turning to my question, the four [Lion's Fang] nodded at the same time.

"I don't know why the goddess selection ceremony is going on, but I didn't choose everyone as a swordsman." We seem to be childhood friends, but we decided to throw a party together. "

Kyle looked back and nodded as he remembered everyone and the time.

From that appearance, it is clear that there is mutual trust that a friendly relationship has been established even after the selection ceremony.

--Familiar with childhood.

In Kyle's words, Emmy and Janet hang slightly in the corner of their sight.

I couldn't help but show my face. [M]

We told the lower level that we wanted to go there by ourselves, and we left the middle level behind.

On the way back, it was a mixed party, and I decided to stay behind with Joey.

"Let me apologize for one thing."

"Huh? Did you tell me?"

I suddenly asked the brunette Joey.

I don't remember being particularly rude.

"To be honest... I first thought of Racelle-san as a [saint], so I only became a leader."

"As for that, I won't deny it..."

"No. Mr. Russell won't give up his sword technique and will come forward for his allies." I'm just ashamed of myself for thinking I envy you. ”

The [Saint] of the highest rank, from the goddess of the sun.

I envy you. Normally.

"I envied Joey just now."

"... eh?"

Emmy and Janet were way ahead of us, so we could talk lightly.

Keep Vince down.

Holy Knight and Sage . Each was at the top of their ranks, and they could use healing magic. They're my childhood friends. "

Joey opened his eyes wide and instantly moved his gaze toward Amy and the others, taking a breath.

"I was able to establish myself now, but I was really useless at the upper level." Joey was unique in [Lion's Fang]. If I had been like that from the beginning.... "

It is difficult in today's society to live without interacting with others.

If you are not aware of the joy of being needed by someone, you will be unable to bear the moment when you are no longer needed by anyone.

I was certainly [someone who was not needed] so much that I would admit it myself at that time.

Even the most senior positions are no exception if the conditions are met.

"Kyle and Edith and Lana. I don't know if Joey is the only [Holy Officer] among the Sword Saint's three companions, but it would be a big deal if his face knew the party's healing magician."

Joey nodded again and again, as if to scrutinize my words.

"... I think I'll bring the sword again tomorrow." But yes... if everyone can hold a sword, it's more important for the three of them to have their own. "

"If you don't forget that, you'll be fine."

I feel something dazzling when I see Joey with a much brighter face than before.

The party healer I've always needed. Even though they are peers, they continue to be peers after the selection ceremony.

I honestly think it's a good relationship.

I don't know why we couldn't be like this, Sun Goddess (Charlotte).

If I ask you, will I get the answer?
