Legend

"Gru."

"Mmm!"

About 30 minutes after you start going on the basement 4th floor of the dungeon. Seto suddenly raised his voice as he progressed through the same irreplaceable scenery for the Rays, such as the same cobblestone, and a few seconds late, Büne also raised his voice.

Having sensed the enemy's approaching by one and one raising their voices, each of the Rays prepares for battle.

Büne holds a dagger in both hands, Vihera extends her sharp nails from her left and right hand armor, and from the heel of her toenail, she produces a blade. Elaine pulls out the jointed sword from the sheath of her hips, Seto sinks slightly to be jumped at any moment, and Ray also sets up a death size.

Note that the yellow, which had stopped on Elaine's left shoulder, was floating in the air undisturbed.

And...

"I'm here.... but oddly slow. This is probably..."

At the end of Vihella's words, it was a monster about 50 cm long who showed up from the end of the aisle. That number is seven. With the thighs, it slowly moves on the cobblestone.

"... you sound like an idiot for being wary. Is this Seal Worm?"

"Mmm."

The first monsters I encountered on the fourth basement floor meant the Rays were able to handle whatever happened. But it was the dull seal worm that showed up, so I couldn't help but lose my mind.

Vihera opens her mouth with a bitter smile at Ray's words thrown up with her sigh.

"Actually, it's a little rough in the sense of sealing the opponent's movements, but it's only a monster who's committed to being a supporter and doesn't have the same attack power."

Elaine would also have assumed that a stronger monster would show up. I was looking at Seal Worm like I was confused somewhere.

"Mmm!"

Of all those lines, the only one who looks tense is Beaune. It looks somewhere motivated to get the material it is intended for, even in the same unchanged look.

"Grrrrrrrr?"

What are you gonna do? and lay death-size again, stroking Seto's head, which throats all over.

"There's no substitute for being a monster, no matter how weak the enemy is. Besides, I don't have this Seal Worm stone yet. For me, I was lucky enough to run into you, just like Bühne."

"Demon Stone?

Vihera asks by erasing the nails on her hand and the blade on her toenail and asking if she had lost her motivation the other way around such a ray.

(... what? Instead of being stored in your armor or toenail, you disappeared? Is that nail or blade shaped by magic or something?

Elaine is heartily surprised by the sight she sees on the sidelines while setting up a connecting sword to check on Seal Worm.

But I don't have time to think that way. The battle begins.

The first thing that popped up first was the bandit Bühne, as a matter of course. Approaching Seal Worm so fast that I don't think he's a very 10-year-old. White liquid is spit out of Seal Worm's mouth to intercept such a beaune. I thought I hit a cobblestone or a wall, and from that moment on, it cured. But just because Bühne doesn't make sense such an attack, he moves forward and forward while dodging the liquid spitting out of the seven seal worms.

And finally, he snaps and rips open his soft flank as if crawling through the ground like passing next to the nearest seal worm.

"Giggle, giggle!"

Anger or pain again? Anyway, Seal Worm, slashed and torn from his flank, raises his voice so that he rubs his fangs, and six Seal Worms, who were around him as if he had signaled it, spit out the curing fluid again.

The aim was not Bühne, who had already rushed past beside Seal Worm... but Seal Worm, who had been deeply slashed and torn by Bühne's manipulative dagger. The hardening fluid that hits the wound succeeds in consolidating and stopping bleeding in both wounds as it is.

"It was just unexpected to treat wounds that way"

Ray shrugged unexpectedly watching how Seal Worm was like that, and silently nodded whether Elaine was the same again.

"Sure would have been good for a while now... but that's just a buy of time too. Here, take a look at Büne."

Following Vihella's gaze, there is the figure of Bühne, who is kicking the ground, kicking the wall and rising high above Seal Worm's head in a triangular jump procedure. When it was removed as it was, a needle about 20 cm long was caught between multiple fingers. Shake them up loud...... throw them at the next moment.

Even so, throwing is completely separate from throwing spears that Ray uses as a means of ranged attack. Unlike Ray's throw, which is using the entire body to increase speed and increase power, the needle throw made by Büne was released using the suppleness of the wrist, which itself was not that fast, but instead had excellent continuity, or fast-fire.

I finished throwing all the needles that stood between my fingers without a few seconds and all that remained was the appearance of seven seal worms that were needle-penetrated throughout my body and were unable to move.

Having finished throwing all the needles he had, Büne pulled the two daggers out of his left and right hip sheath again as it was... and fell to the ground the next moment. Take advantage of its fall velocity to implant the cutting-edge of a dagger into the heads of two Seal Worms.

Then land on the aisle and leap forward... towards those with the seal worm. He wields the blade as it passes through the side, slashing and tearing apart Seal Worm's body, which is stung with a needle and unable to move. The motion never stopped. A move similar to triangle jumping, like Seto often does. Gradually, over and over again, he gradually slashes and rips Seal Worm's body apart.

If it had been, it would have been possible to block the wound with its characteristic curing solution. However, that is also difficult in the present situation, where the needle is making it impossible to move. Consequently, he continues to be unilaterally slashed and torn apart… eventually Seal Worm will be out of breath for all of it.

"Mmm!"

This is my own! Claiming that it was Beaune alone who defeated the fact Seal Worm, so the Rays admit it and help strip the material.

"You don't say the battle now, it's cruel or anything. He's a tough general, so I just thought he was complaining."

It is also the purpose of Bühne to plunge the bottle into Seal Worm's body and collect the hardening fluid before stripping the crusade proof site and material fangs and removing the Demon Stone from the heart. Vihella speaks to Elaine as she acts that way and still has time to spare.

It was Elaine who heard the word while stripping away Seal Worm's fangs, but she opens her mouth with a serious look on her face to the words of Vihera that she could say were somewhere provocatively stained...

"At first glance, it does also look like a cruel act like a cruel slaughter. But can't Bühne defeat Seal Worm in one blow under normal conditions? It compensates for it at speed to increase the attack power of a single blow.... I don't think that's a funny story?

"... yeah, right. If you know what I mean."

Vihera gives a flash of surprise expression to the returned word, eventually nodding as she was convinced.

Past that brain were certain adventurers who were supposed to accompany them before. The adventurers were jealous of Bühne, who was over 10 years younger than them, and even said that Bühne's way of fighting was brutal, cruel, and ruthless. The said person appeared to be faceless as usual, and thus the words of reproach from the mouths of those adventurers became stronger.

But I could see that Biune was deeply hurt by Vihera, who had partied with Biune several times before. If Bühne hadn't stopped, that party would probably have gone missing in the dungeon so angry Vihera... in the end the party dived into a deep hierarchy without even losing their strength and never came back after that.

(There were all sorts of suspicious things about that party, such as hitting hard against Bühne, who is also a survivor of the Fraut family... but more than ever since that incident, Bühne has started to hide her emotions, and she no longer organizes wild parties. Given that, it's a good thing we partied with Ray and Elaine and the others like this, even though it's wild...... right)

Vihera thanks you for meeting someone inside named Ray and Elaine.

Because it's not just the fighting power of the two people I'm interested in, it's also breaking it down with Bühne.

(Oh, but that's so... Beaune would be sad too if you fought these two and it turned out to be like dying)

Vihera gives a slightly sad look as she takes out the demonic stone, imagining what it was then.

But no matter what thoughts, the option of not fighting Ray and Elaine did not exist in Vihera. Yes, even if you or Ray, or Elaine, were to die in that battle.

A battle desire that burns within you and even burns itself out. Fortunately now it is a chilli, temperamental flame, but it could be said that it is a certainty for Vihella that the flame will grow sooner or later.

And if you fight Ray or Elaine when that flame grows, how much fullness or pleasure will fill you? If you think it's expensive, you can't stop it, which can also be called the initial impulse.

(because the flames in me just kindled up a little and I enjoyed all that fighting)

Vihera remembers the battle with Ray the day before and snoozes. Fortunately no one was watching that look, but if the man around it had seen the present vihella... that, if he had seen the look that was so glossy that it would have taken his soul away from him, there would have been a large number of people who would have attacked him without even giving up their strength.

I could burn that far, even if it was a half-way battle without my original weapon, Ray. What if they both fought in full condition...

Tokun.

I just imagined that time, my chest pounding terribly as if I was even in love.

"Mmm!"

I rang to see if Büne was worried about Vihera like that.

A beaune that represents little emotion, but slightly in its eyes… only slightly but with a worrying colour.

Viewing it, Vihera shook her head small and smiled. Even with the same grin, a gentle grin completely different from the one I had just had.

"Pfft, it's nothing. More than that...... yes, this. Seal Worm's Demon Stone and Proof of Crusade Fang."

"Mmm."

Put them into the pouch of your hips with a small nod.

It's a very ordinary pouch, unlike the magic pouch Elaine has, so the amount you can store inside is determined.

As for Bühne, who needed to make money, he had always collected what was as expensive as he could and wouldn't take a place - mainly demon stones.

Most importantly, I don't need to worry about taking it home because only today I have Ray who has mysteries and Elaine who has a magic pouch even if it doesn't extend to that.

Beune nods satisfactorily when he sees the material he has been able to obtain, the magic stone, and the bottle containing the hardening liquid.

"You got a minute? If you can, the next time Seal Worm comes out, I want you to give me two."

"Hmm?"

"Can I have two?

Instead of Bühne, Ray nods to Vihera, who asks, even so.

"I've been collecting monster demon stones for a hobby. I don't have Seal Worm's Demon Stone yet, so I want to make sure it's one for preservation and one for viewing."

"Mm-hmm!

A line goes straight into the dungeon with a gentle thank you to Büne, who speaks out that he understands.

"I went upstairs looking at the map... and with the bandit Bühne, I don't even have to look at the map"

"Right. It's just great to remember the passage of the dungeon. I'm also convinced why bandits are popular in the quest for dungeons."

Elaine and Ray walking around talking like that. But if that's not the case, Vihera pinches her mouth.

"That's a little different. Even if you call me a bandit, I'm a pinkie. Especially if you're a bad bandit, you can't spot or disarm a trap. Given that, you know how many bandits Bühne is, right?

"Specifically, how much arm are you?

Ray asks proud Vihera for some reason.

Speaking of Ray's known bandits, Cullot and Ones acted together in a rank-up exam. What's more, he's not a professional bandit, but he also has some bandit skills, like Luno, the all-purpose adventurer, and Ver, Elaine's Knights of Escorts, who betrayed him.

Vihera returns her words to Ray, who asked thinking that way, looking at Bühne, who without hesitation chose the right path on the Y-shaped road.

"Right. Purely speaking of my arms as a bandit, I think I'd be at the top of the world in those years.... Well, I don't know how many kids are adventurous in those years in the first place. If you look at the bandits as a whole, maybe from the bottom inside to the top below. As old as I am, I don't know how much skill I will have when I grow up like this... I can guess."

That's what he said as he watched Bühne walk down the aisle alerting him to the trap.
