I Leveled up from Being a Parasite, But I May Have Grown Too Much

"I've been hit quite a few times. It's getting really weak in here."

Six floors of the labyrinth.

We used the power of the parasite to get through the labyrinth safely and avoid traps and other things with the ability of monsters.

Now I'm talking to Lou looking for seven levels.

So is Lou. Don't be ridiculous. "

"Yeah, yeah. If I was walking a lot before I met Aishi, what about inscriptions, messages when I was resurrected after I was killed? I was taught a lot of things."

"Message when you get hit?

"Yeah, it's like status. You can see it here, right? When I reached zero, I was put back in the layer again, and I heard artificial audio like I heard in the announcement of the world of Asi."

I heard that message.

If you're just fighting monsters, you can wear them out and hunt them down. Find an item.

If you hurry ahead, you won't be able to complete it due to lack of combat power. Collect items in one tier to earn XP when you can afford it!

Something like that.

"You're so kind."

"That's right. I think he gave me advice because he did too much."

I didn't expect you to give me advice for beginners... it's really like a game.

Or did you really make it as a game? This labyrinth.

If you have magic equipment like the one you saw in the Titan Tower, or something beyond that, maybe you can make a dungeon like this if you work hard.

It was done by the ancients who gave me time.

I can also advise if there are players who have just been hit a lot. To a certain extent, games aren't funny.

"You're a annoying game creator. I can't believe you forced me to play."

"Yeah, yeah. But it's quite interesting, and even if they do, they can come back to life."

"That's the goddess Posi. Well, if artificial audio is going to say that, it must be clear. Let's do our best to make hope come to us more than just wandering around."

Red Skeleton Warrior appeared from the front.

A red bone warrior with an axe and a tin helmet.

Lou leaves quickly and receives a sword and shield from me.

"Leave it to me! Now's your chance to level up!

Skeleton shook an ax down at Lou who had left.

Lou catches the axe with a black iron shield - the shield is sturdy and leaves no scratches.

And with the silver sword held in his other hand, he broke the skeleton's rose and spine. It's a sharp flavor that cuts like a green onion.

According to the performance of the weapon itself, Lou's power is also too great.

After all, we should equip the weapon and armor.

Besides, I don't have to fight parasites to raise my level, so it's more efficient for me not to defeat enemies and earn XP.

Because I'm parasitizing with Lou. It would be a loss if I stabbed you. [M]

"Fufu, easy win! Monsters around here aren't going anywhere anymore. Want to go first? Aishi ~"

Lou comes rushing around with his weapon, but it's dangerous!?

If an ally gives you 0 HP, you won't be stylish.

"Well, of course, even if I stay here long, my experience is not very efficient. I'd like to fight an enemy that takes at least three bullets to defeat. All right, let's get out of here. When I finished, I was looking forward to a message from the labyrinth maker."

And we need to go through the labyrinth, ignoring the advice that we should go slow! All of a sudden he went down the hierarchy.

And as soon as I entered the eleventh level - a level where the surrounding appearance changed dramatically and became like a beautiful structure like a palace of chalk - I saw a familiar figure.

a woman with black hair who is wearing robust, adventurous clothing

Having come here alone meant that once all the strengths had been reset, there were strengths that made me accustomed to adventuring. I knew I could count on you.

Ali!

Ali stopped and looked back.

Aishi-sama! Master Lou! I'm glad you're safe... "

Ali rushed over and took Lou and me by the hand.

A relieved expression.

Ali would have been more worried about coming all this way alone than we are.

I'm really glad we made it.

"That's it. I'm glad Ally's safe. You've never been hit before?

"Yes, I was confused by the total loss of power, but I managed to do the basics of my adventure."

"Wow, that's awesome. Ali got me killed about seven times."

"Eh... were you defeated by a monster...?

"Yeah, but you're okay now that you're back."

Ali said, "Are you okay...?" He murmured.

No, well, I don't want to be too hard on you even though you can normally be resurrected, that's right, Lou.

"Anyway, now we have all three. When I tried to travel between the worlds, everyone was sucked in here."

"Yes, I thought it was just me, but it would be nice if you two were together. If we move on from this labyrinth, will we be able to return?

"I think so. I've seen a lot of things, and it seems like the stage of a game made by someone else... it's like an attraction. I feel like I was forced to participate."

"That's quite a nuisance."

"Yeah, so let's get on with it. It's all three of us."

Yes!

And the three of us started moving forward.

Since the atmosphere of the new floor changed, I expected it, but I felt that the monsters appeared in two stages at once.

However, the number of people has also increased, so the number of troops has greatly increased.

Yes, I won't lose - but I can't afford to lose more health.

I thought it might not be a good idea to go around the floor for a long time.

"I'd like to make some shortcuts. About half of these labyrinth attacks will be explored thoroughly, and the last one will be able to run through them with the items they've acquired."

Because monsters become exponentially more powerful in the second half and cannot compete with tomatoes. The last is to evade combat and use disposable and powerful means of attack. The same thing happens here. I don't want to impose it.

"I want to move on with something good....."

"Asie, don't you have a good idea?

"I'll tell you when I do. Thinking."

"Um...."

It was Ali who raised his hand.

"I might be able to, shortcut."

"Really!?

"Yes, did you forget the first adventure with me?

The first thing with Ali... that's... hah!

"Spirit of earth!

"I'm glad you remember. Among the" Spirit Man "skills I can use, earth is my area of expertise. By the time I reached these 11 levels, my strength had grown again. Looks good here."

White palaces have aged walls and floors that look like stones have peeled off.

Ali uses her skills in front of her.

"Lord Ghost, please come. And turn up the stone and the soil."

The ground turns up with a twitch - twitch.

Then there was a hole in the ground from which I could see the view downstairs.

Lou stepped out and looked down, shouting in surprise.

"Ooh! Wow! You got a back route like this!

"The concept of the labyrinth... Ahahah, that's amazing, Ali."

"When there is only danger ahead, this is how we can avoid it. Because I can tell if the soft part of the floor is the spirit gnome of the earth. If it's hard enough, you can break the wall."

Well, that's how they came up to 11 floors faster than us, even though they were alone.

Quite efficient, safe and quick to attack.

"So, Ali, can I rely on that power from here?

"Of course. Anything I can do! Let's go, Miss Aisi, Miss Lou."

We jumped into the hole that Ally opened and forced ourselves into twelve levels.
