"Bumooooooooooooooo!"

"Ahhh!

Two roars cling to the labyrinth. A giant bull-headed human warcraft (Minotaur) waves down a long battle axe, intercepted by Gin's Black Demon Steel Grave with it in both hands. Neither of them retreated a single step, and each other's weapons crossed in the hollow.

They're not the only ones on this scene. Apart from Jin's dependable companions, there were various pieces of equipment Minotaur, but among them, this whole thing confronting Jin was one bigger head than the other individuals, and was wrapped in full-body metal armor (full plate) except its head.

"Bwaaaa!"

"Let it!

Minotaur, wearing another leather armor seen as a gap, wields a stick and hits Jin, but Elsa's sword holds it back. Not only... but the Great Sword plays up the stick and protrudes the torso of the minotaur who was forced to raise both arms for each stick.

"Slash!"

And Elsa's sword deeply tore open her soft belly, which was not protected by leather armor.

"- Pierced by fireworks," Flame Spear (Flame Lance) "!

Aria's magic flies toward another individual, sidelined by a minotaur that sinks with the cry of the Terminator. Inherited from Ken, the reincarnator of the past, this lost magic (Lost Magic) brilliantly chooses the chest of a wand minotaur by its right arm.

"I'm the guy!

Protecting such aria is Rachel with a medium-sized black iron shield (kiteshield) and a battle hammer. Attract the attention of the two remaining bodies in "Taunt" to yourself and do not give them a gap to put a shield bigger than before on their hands.

As a shield, she had the drawback of being too light in weight, but thanks to her high status and shielding skills she had developed while holding protection, she was endangering her shield against two minotaurs.

"Hmm!"

And Jin, who was taking a full plate Minotaur in one hand, waves Grave to soak up after a dozen matches of meetings. With that blow Minotaur's left hand flew from the roots, and that determined the battle. Even though he was a monstrous Minotaur, he could not handle a giant battle axe properly with one arm, and the battle ended in the form of the total annihilation of his enemies without so much.

"Ugh...... Are you getting a lot more stable and able to take them down?

Finish the fight and Jin looks back at the earlier fight. Currently they are on the 70th floor of the labyrinth, and this was the third total boss fight.

More than a month has already passed since the Jins were first relative to Minotaurs, but Minotaurs, considered to be B-rank-equivalent in their entirety, were just as handy. Attacks launched from that giant over two metres are a threat, and if eaten properly, they are not so much just the Jins. For this reason, Jin and the others decided to abandon dealing with Minotaur like this and go back to the fifty tiers to retrain the Great Ghost (Auga) against them. Of course Auga was a strong enemy, but still better than Minotaur. You dare to create disadvantages and challenge them, as you have done before, with a particular focus on building defensive system skills. New elements of mastery of 'martial arts' were also included along the way, but more than half a month was needed until satisfactory results were obtained.

And once again, we went on offense from the 61st floor against Minotaur, and repeated boss fights on this 70th floor, which is currently under attack, also to bottom up our strengths.

"Right. I could have been intact this time, and I want to take on the boss next."

Sometimes the third boss battle, Elsa seems to be responding.

Her skill rank wasn't raised in these three fights, but I guess the experience meant that it was enough to give her confidence. It is not only the existence of a new means of attack called 'martial arts' that lies in its basement, but also the existence of various skills that have been working out so far.

Elsa's Skill Rank for "Swordsmanship" now extends to 7 and "Great Swordsmanship" to 6, and defensive skills such as "Evasion" and "Reciprocity" have also mostly grown to 4 or 5. Its prowess can be said to be very much equal to the top of the 'Great Sword' rank, but the number of defensive skills acquired is more than that. He did not protrude and have high skills, but on average, the diverse skills he raised were approaching A-rank overall.

"I know how Elsa feels, but why don't the three of us hit it before we do?

"Oh, I agree! I'm anxious to be alone, but it's safe for the three of us."

While I narrow my eyes to Elsa, Aria cautiously argues, and Rachel agrees with me. They were each showing growth, just like Elsa.

Aria has her best "Fire Magic" skill at 7 and, as she showed earlier in action, has also mastered "Fire Magic," one of the "Lost Magic" inherited from Ken, the reincarnator of the past. Nevertheless, only part of the initial pole was mastered, but "ancient magic" is more powerful than the original, but it also consumes MP for that matter, so that was enough given the practical use.

He was also Aria, who dominated long-range attacks as a mage, but still had up to five "Jitsu" and most of his defensive skills such as "Evasion" were over four, leading him to have first-class arms as a warrior, albeit slightly more falling than a specialist Elsa. Even if you look at it as a mere magician, top B rank, and overall, you can say that even if you skip 'Ancient Magic', you're approaching A-rank just like Elsa.

Rachel and "Recovery Magic" are up to seven, and advanced magic is also available to show further growth as a recovery actor. In addition, "Hammer" and "Shield" have risen to five, and it is only thanks to her hard work that "Shield" has grown so far, especially when it can be mastered and said to be relatively shallow. Having switched from the small shield I used to use to the medium kite shield, and various defensive skills starting with "Shielding," I am now close to 5 houses, serving as the second shield for the party that follows Gin. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to master "Chant Shortening", but I continue to train and will be the only one who can simultaneously perform the Shield and Recovery roles in my mastery.

At this stage, like the other two, the overall ability was approaching the A-rank.

"Surely one can't say enough that he's still fine. Hey, Jin, can the three of us go to the boss next?

"Oh, shall we try that next time? I think we're gaining strength a little bit, but let's not rush it steadily."

Elsa doesn't have the stubbornness to not bend opinions even though Aria and Rachel tell her to. And Jin also smiled and accepted the intentions of the three Elsas again.

They were the ones who showed so much growth that things went too well like this, but still, to that extent, there would be armaments up in Jin.

His main wepon is a unique weapon called the Spear Sword (Grave), which has sword and spear functions, but with "Swordsmanship" and "Skillsmanship," it becomes 8, and "Spear Swordsmanship" is also approaching Oswald, a 7 and A-rank adventurer, with one more step. Moreover, the various defensive skills were beyond the rank of 6 houses, some of which even reached a rank of more than Oswald.

He had earned many 'lost magic' using backgammon that also used windows when it came to magic, and the rank of 'Shortened Chant' has risen to five. Few new skills were acquired, but all of the skills possessed were of a high standard.

Even if you consider yourself a pure warrior, it's good to say that you have A-rank equivalent strength at the moment, although it doesn't extend to Greg and the Oswalds, who are just A-ranks with experience.

"Copy that. We have a long way to go, but we have to keep going steadily."

One of the A-rank criteria is level 50 or higher, but their current level is still less than 40. Even if you use 'maps' in the labyrinth to efficiently repeat the battle, it should be noted that the wall of level 50 was high.

- But on the contrary, it also means that they are close to or have equivalent strength to the A-rank of 50 or higher at the current level, which is less than 40.

Towards the complete offense of the labyrinth, the Jins were growing steadily.

"Well, let's go home today."

While realizing their growth, Jin and the others touched the metastatic stone and followed the labyrinth.

"Welcome back, Father! Sister!"

Gin and the others, who left the labyrinth, stopped by the orphanage before returning home. The purpose is to welcome Touka.

"I'm home, Towka."

Jin smiles and embraces the tortoise that jumped into her chest.

"Look, Towka. Now this way."

"Yeah!"

Elsa is next to Jin, Aria and Touka jump into their nostalgia in turn and are hugged from each one of them.

Feeling the unwavering affection there, Towka was smiling heartily.

"Ah, Brother Jin! Oh, welcome. Nice to meet you."

The child is an energetic boy of almost the same age as Touka. At first he smiled when he found a gin to play with sometimes, but he had turned into a face that seemed sorry to find out he hadn't come to see him right away.

Children from various positions attend orphanages, which also combine nursery and school roles, but naturally do not come to pick up children who do not have parents to live there. I couldn't help but envy Touka, even if he had been lovingly received by his substitute Hilda.

"Hehe. Yeah, I'm glad too!

If it was a towca back when it was a pull-in idea, I wouldn't have joked about this. But that dialogue is not based on a sense of superiority, but an honest feeling that has naturally boiled down.

And this was also proof that Towka was getting along with the orphanage kids enough to tell the truth without fixing it up.

"Huh. Well, no. Brother Jin, you can play with us next time."

"Oh. Ritz, I'll be back to see you."

The boy - Ritz gives Jin's reply a full grin. The head was pounded gently and Jin followed the orphanage.

"Eh heh heh."

On the way home from the orphanage, Towka walks hand in hand with Jin and looks in a good mood. Her other hand is also connected by Elsa with a full grin, no way her parents were too young, but the three of them also look like parents and children (...) walking together. And Aria and Rachel continued a little after them.

"Fine."

Rachel whispers and leaks her insides. On the way home from the orphanage, one hand of the towca is always blocked with gin, so the other hand is in the order of the women.

"Pfft, I do envy you. But it's Rachel's turn tomorrow, isn't it?

"Haha, did you hear that? It's embarrassing."

To Rachel's honest thoughts, Aria puts her hand on her mouth and smiles. But she wasn't the only one who was hearing it.

"You heard me, too. There's nothing you can do about it."

"Huh? Mr. Jin?"

Looking back and smiling at Jin, Rachel couldn't hide her upset from the embarrassment she'd been asked.

"Touka is popular. I have a high nose as a father."

But the next moment, Jin said so as he stroked the head of the tow with the hands of the empty one. - Needless to say, the reason I think they're envious isn't just because they can hold hands with Towka.

To Gin's response, arguably the extreme of bluntness, Rachel, who was upset, turned and swelled her cheeks, and Aria sighed. And Elsa, who was holding hands with Touka, looked up to heaven as well.

Jin understands failure in the upside down and grumpy air, but he doesn't know what went wrong. The help ship was put out of the unexpected.

"Father...... I don't think your father needs to think about your sisters' feelings anymore, do you?

"Huh?"

My ten year old beloved daughter (Touka) who teaches gin. She loved her father, but I can't deny there's a little bit of grudge mixed up there while caring for Jin.

For once, Jin didn't forget to get a confession from the women, and it's a fact that she's distressed from time to time. But still, it remained neglected when it came to romantic finesse.

"Thank you for telling me, Towka"

"Yeah, well said, Towka"

"You really are a good boy. Yet Jin..."

Aria and the others praise the tortoise with their mouths and, conversely, blame the gin with their gaze. I also confess, so it would be honest to want you to be more conscious.

"I'm sorry, sisters. I'm fine, hold hands with your father. … maybe that's not what you need to do."

"What!? You can't do that!

Gin reacts significantly ahead of the women's group to Touka's proposal. It was natural for him to hold hands with his daughter, Touka, except when it comes to holding hands with Aria and the others who are favoring him. Besides, when it was a business transaction with other people's eyes, it was even more unfortunate.

Jin's real age shouldn't be as big a deal as holding hands because it's not about a good year, but is there resistance because you're aware of them, or because they're not alone (...)? First steps, no matter how old they are, may be something with fresh moments.

Either way, the appearance of Jin wandering red-handed seemed sufficient to lower Aria and the others' hoarding.

"Well, that's about it to forgive you"

"Yeah, it sounds like Jin's reflecting too"

"Yeah, don't forget how we feel, Mr. Jin."

And for them too, it may have still been embarrassing to hold hands in public.

"I wish your father could be your daughter-in-law soon..."

The twinkle of the tortoise disappeared with bubbles before it could be passed on to anyone. - Aside from whether that's a good thing or not...
