Episode 44: Dungeons

When I enter the entrance to the dungeon, I feel my body floating.

Is this what gravity-free space looks like? I'm afraid you're fluffy about something and you don't have legs on the ground.

Miriam and Farah won't leave because they're holding hands, but I don't see anything to the point where it's dark and I know how my skin feels.

I wouldn't have had a minute of that. Slowly you start to see the light and you can see that it is the forest around you.

Apparently, the entrance to the dungeon is complete.

But... this is terrible. You know, suddenly you're surrounded by pigs...

There's about ten of them, is this a nest?

"You suddenly have a situation like this or something. It's a pig, and let's just destroy it."

"Yes!"

"Mmm."

About the pig, he's strong enough to hit and defeat him with a weapon, so he turns Job into a monk and knocks him down crisp.

"Is this it? Still, where am I? Miriam, do you understand?"

"I'm new to the dungeon itself, so I don't know."

All I know is that it's in the woods. Where should I go from east to west to north?

Going through the woods for a few hours defeating the crisps and monsters... came up with a good thing.

"What's wrong with you? I'm scared that I'm going to nibble..."

"I've come up with something good. Farah, can you help me?

"Mmm."

I'll call Farah over, put my hands on her back and let her float a little with magic.

Since this is going to make it easy to fly, should I explain what I'm going to do first?

"Farah, I'm going to let you fly out of the sky now, so can you visually see which way I can get out of the woods?

"Okay."

"Empty!?

Miriam looks so jealous, but the lightest of these is Farah. I shall ask Farah to confirm the location from the sky.

It's not like Miriam's heavy!

"How much?"

"Mmm."

"... okay..."

Is it about twenty meters with all the magic at once? I'm not going to be able to raise it any more.

Apparently, this is about the distance that the release of magic arrives.

Maybe a little more magic would increase the distance. Let's experiment next time.

"That's Mr. Takashi. I have to practice too......"

"Miriam will be able to do it soon. I'll fly you Miriam later."

"Really Awesome!? Yay!

Do you like the high places? Or is it a pleasure to fly magically? It's hard to judge, but if you can see Miriam's delightful face, that's enough.

If I circle you over the sky, you seem to enjoy spreading your hands and feet. Are you checking around properly......

Miriam seems impatient. Lower the fala to its original position in order to replace it.

"How'd it go?

"There are no trees over there. There are rivers and mountains over here."

"Right. Thank God."

I'll stroke your head. All right, Miriam's next.

"Miriam. Will you look for a few suitable places to build a house, and then a place where the monster looks strong?

"Leave it to me!

Are you excited to be able to fly? Keep your hips down and wait for now or not.

"I'll be there."

"Yes! Please!

"And while you're flying, watch your pants."

"Huh? Ahhhhhhh"

I just turned my attention to my lower body and flew it to you all at once.

Like Farah, Pammolo is good, but it's also good to be ashamed, like Miriam, of hiding it but seeing it.

But I cautioned you first, so I'll hide it. I did a shame.

"Farah, did the sky have fun?

"Yeah. I want to fly again"

"Oh well. I'll fly you again."

"Takumi"

I found out the other day that when the reply was different, it was when I really thought so.

I'll fly you another time, even when I can afford MP.

Miriam will circle it for you, too, and after flying as much time as Farah, I'll put you down.

"Oh, you're done..."

"I'll fly you again. How'd it go?

"Yes! Oh, uh, there was something over there that seemed like a good place to build a house, but it seemed like someone was fighting near it. Later, there were a few places that seemed good, but while fighting, it was a distance that could end up at night."

"I see. If it was them I'd like to see again earlier, it'd be a hassle."

"Well..."

I guess you remembered, the face that seemed like fun is a little catchy.

"Speaking of which, what happens if you die in the dungeon?

"They say it will be part of the dungeon"

"You mean you're going to be absorbed?

"That's not what it is. I don't know what the principle is, but when the dungeon disappears, the living are forced to go outside, but the carcass disappears with the dungeon," he said.

You don't quite understand that only raw people are forced to go outside. Isn't it foreign from the dungeon, though the dead?

Since it is made of thought, will the soul of the dead also become a thought and be judged as part of the dungeon? I don't know.

I can't help thinking about things I don't know. When you die, it doesn't change anywhere. I wish I didn't die.

"I see. So if you kill the troublesome guy in the dungeon, you'll have no proof left"

"Kill... oh, you can't do that!?

"I know. As long as Miriam and Farah are by my side, I won't take that risk. I just thought so."

"That would be good...... if Takashi did it earlier, I mean... well, no, hey!

Are you worried about me? If I kill people and get caught, I'll stay away from them. I wouldn't do anything stupid like that.

"In the meantime, someone might be there, but why don't you go that way"

"Okay. I'll show you around!

When you start moving, one monster after another will attack you that you have fought before. Sounds like you're going to be quick to get a level on this.

It's basically a blow, so let's hunt for 30 while we're in the dungeon.

"A little further."

"Sure you can hear something. It's been about an hour since I've been here, but are you a monster strong enough to fight that long?

"There's just something wrong with Mr. Takashi, it's usually like that!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

That's just how long we fight, the party will be weak or the monster will be strong.

"Even Miriam is as strong as I am. I'm gonna knock you down with a monster blow."

"I... because Takashi is here, not the strength I've worked so hard to get..."

"You can't live without me? I'm glad to hear it. All right, all right."

"No more! I didn't say that! But thanks to Takashi for being so strong... thank you"

"Thanks to Takashi"

Thank you, too, Farah. All right, all right.

Moving on flirting, the fighting party came into view.

Looks like the six of us are fighting. Are they a bunch of harpies?

They're all equipped with swords, spears, nails, etc., so they don't seem to have a magician, so the flying opponent will take time.

Watching you fight like that, I've noticed.

Ear... tail on the beast ear!

It wouldn't be cosplay, would it be the one called the Beast Man?

Two cats with a rabbit and a raccoon, what will it be later, a wolf? A dog? There's a guy like that and a guy as big as a bear. From the outfit and the face, it looks like three men and three women.

There are a lot of harpy and butterfly bodies rolling around them, so I guess I ran into a herd and have been fighting.

Does it take so long just to have no magician and be a flying monster opponent?

Sounds like you don't have a magician.

"The beast man is quite low in magic, so few people can use magic"

"I wonder why you can't let a magician into a party? Because of that, you're having such a hard time."

"I've never heard of a party just for beasts... and it's certainly inefficient not to let a magician in, and it's so dangerous to do that"

All beasts seem to be a rare party composition.

Without a magician, it's troublesome because bows are the only way to attack monsters flying in the sky.

If they call their people while the attack doesn't hit them, the fight won't be over for long.

Besides, I can't recover, and I'm gonna have to run. But monsters aren't stupid either. If he escapes, he'll naturally come after him.

... That's a vicious circle.

I see. So you're in their current state as a result?

Miriam's right, that's inefficient.

Anyone can imagine such a situation...... why can't you let a magician in? Is it also for any reason? I'm curious......

"Mr. Takashi! I've been bawling, but are you thinking again? Experiments?"

"No, I wondered why you couldn't let a magician in."

"I can't think of no magician in the dungeon, so I don't get it. What would you do better than that? They seem pretty exhausted..."

"Right, we only know who we are, and doesn't that mean we thought about it? I don't know what to do..."

It's easy to interrupt and sweep monsters.

But I don't know if the other side will treat the guys who broke in from the side as good.

I'm not struggling with anything, I just seem tired, so if I get too much hands on it, I can rub it.

"Oh, it's dangerous! Let's help you, Mr. Takashi!

A guy like a bear gets attacked and knelt by a herd of harpies, and Milia, who sees it, begs.

"... I get it. Farah, me and Miriam will hold the enemy forward. In the meantime, heal them all."

"Mm-hmm. Okay."

"Mr. Takashi, let's go!

"Okay, okay, okay."

The three of us rush out, first burning up the flying monster with Miriam.

Farah hangs healing on guys like bears, and turns healing on other beasts as well. That's great.

"Huh...! Thank you, assistant knife!

"Ooh, wow. Thanks!

Is a guy like a dog the leader? He thanked me, and following that, a child like a raccoon came to thank me in surprise.

... I'm fine enough that this guy doesn't seem tired at all.

When Miriam and I had finished hunting a long time, they also appeased the beasts and all sat down.

"Phew. Like this."

"No, it's small, but it's amazing, you guys! Was that magic? Wow, wow!"

"Thank you. We'll hurry."

"Yeah!? Wait a minute! I haven't even thanked you yet!

The raccoon seemed like a troublesome kid, so I just tried to walk away and I was held back. I knew you did, didn't I?

"No, never mind. Bye."

"Hey, hey, wait a minute! Just a little!

"Mr. Takashi, why are you in such a hurry?

Again... that's Milia's bad habit. You messed it up in front of Kash the other day, have you forgotten?

But I also love Miriam for not reading the air and being a kyoton. Well, I'll punish you.

"Brother, you say takashi! Thanks just now!

Oh, they even know my name.

When I look at Jih Miriam, I seem to have noticed something hah, hands on my mouth, and I look at this one with sorrow.

"No, never mind really. I'm in a hurry because I've got some errands for this kid. Good luck with the dungeon offense. Okay, then."

"Hino..."

After bidding farewell to his raccoon daughter, he pulls Farah's hand and walks out, pumping Miriam's head. Miriam seems to have understood what it means. Pull-pull trembling.

"Dear Takashi, please wait. We have something to thank you for."

A leader-like dog man poked one knee and held him back respectfully.

"I didn't interrupt the fight expecting that, so don't really care"

"No, then we don't feel right."

"Um, we have things to do before the sun goes down ahead. And you all seem tired."

"Sure...... embarrassing. We've been fighting monsters for hours."

As far as I can tell, they're all full of creativity. I applied healing to you, but I guess I can't take my tiredness off. Walking seems tight too.

Well, we're in a hurry.

"Um! I'm sorry so many times. Ahead...... is there anything?

"There was a good place to stay in the wild, so I had to make a bed before the sun went down."

"I see...... sure, you don't seem to have that much time anymore. I'm sorry I held you back."

Is he a man of this dog, noble or of high rank? The same goes for the language, but good posture.

Because of that, I stuck talking about extra things.

"I'll see you somewhere."

"Yes, thank you very much"

Now it's really time to say goodbye and walk out.

Where the Beasts are out of sight, I'll pump Miriam's head for you.

"Hih..."

"Miriam. Remember the other day, when you ran weird without reading the air at the city gate?

"Hih...... Yikes. I remember."

"Punishment confirmed"

"Ahhh... sorry..."

You're being honest today. Well, it's the second time, and the boulders know what I mean.

"Takashi, what are you doing to Miriam?

"It's a jerk thing."

"Ugh... I forgive you, no..."

I worry about what to do. It's the usual thing to look naked or touch your chest. It's time for the next step... no, we still have time. Let's make a decision in a situation then.

"Farah will too"

"Oh well. Do you want Farah too? Let's have some fun together."

"Mm-hmm. Spots."

"No more... no more..."

As he went along thinking about taking down the monster, he went out a little open by the river.

"Hmm? This is where Miriam was talking about?

"Yes......"

You're afraid of the punishment, Miriam's tension has been dropping ever since.

Let's just get you punished and let you go.

"Well, I'll build a house here, so Miriam and Farrah practice making enclosures with dirt magic around them."

"Yes......"

"Mmm."

Build the same interstitial house the other day. It's the second time, so I think I got the hang of it. Accuracy is increasing.

Rather than just dirt, I lost my sense of zalazala like a stone.

I see. If you imagine it like a stone, or even a polished stone, instead of dirt, you'd be able to make a bath kettle.

I just got into the dungeon, and I'm still going to be able to practice getting more precision. Let's try it consciously from now on.

I managed to secure a place to settle before the sun went down.

It's going to be a long night tonight... Heh.
