The fact that when the four people with negative skills got together, they had some kind of synergy and had the strongest party.

I wave my sword.

Was the level low, the last tentacle plant dispersed the body just that.

"Hmm."

End the annihilation of the flock and breathe a sigh of relief.

One side of the dungeon was littered with massive drops.

We had reached twenty-four layers here in the sunset cave.

As we get closer to the depths even in the middle of the dungeon, the monsters that emerge become even more powerful, and even intermediate players become essential in organizing parties for offense. Even me, if you dive solo, it's a dangerous hierarchy if you don't prepare well in advance.

Nevertheless, there's still some room on the level, and besides, I'm not alone right now.

I look back and speak to the priest girl I had refrained from as a guard.

"Cocor, help me collect the drop. I might not be able to pick it up alone."

"Yes!

Run over to the item where the cocol is falling and open the status screen to start storing it in storage.

Items dropped by monsters disappear alone over time. Just like the body of a monster.

Once I put it in storage or put it out of the dungeon, that goes away, but because of this property, it sometimes disappeared before I picked it up when there were a lot of drops.

That's why, although I said I would carry it once, I ended up having Cocor help me collect it.

He's a cleric with a hard time raising the carriage cap, but he's just super high level and still seems to be able to afford it.

I'm a really bad buddy.

While I collect items and coins, I make a scene.

I didn't think the day would come when I'd get this much drop. It's just fun watching the storage burying.

No, no, no, this luxury is becoming commonplace...

At least now, even though it's just a boon to Cocor's skills.

We need to make sure we don't scratch the rags on this situation.

"You've finished picking up the whole thing."

I look around the dungeon floor, and I say to Cocor.

"I walked pretty good, you okay? If you can't, you can rest."

"No, I'm fine. If Mr. Alvin doesn't have a problem, let's move on to the next safe point."

"Okay."

I answer so briefly and resume my steps.

It had been going silently for a while, but Cocor accidentally called out from behind.

"... you know"

"Hmm?"

"Is Mr. Alvin's sword something special?

"My sword? No. It's quite powerful, but it's a normal sword. It doesn't have any particular effect. Anyone with a swordsman who dives deep has this kind of stuff."

"Really...... So, do you have any special skills? Like [blow to death]"

"Yes, no, I don't have that skill, and I probably don't even exist... why not?

"No......"

Cocor puts it down a little and says:

"The monster slashed by Mr. Alvin has almost died in one blow... No matter how many level [43] swordsmen strike twenty-four layers of monsters, they usually can't. So I was wondering if there was anything."

"Uh... you sure do"

I'll explain.

"There are several reasons. First of all, I don't have any skills for [blow death], but I have parameter lifting skills like [muscle strength increase/large]. Thanks to this, the actual status figures are above the level. And now there's a Cocor buff."

Cocor was buffing me from over twenty layers.

Moreover, it overlaps what is called "muscle strength enhancement," "damage reduction," and "poison resistance." It was pretty easy to fight because of it.

I wondered if the MP was ok, but it seems I can afford it at all. That's a level [80] cleric.

But Cocor has his neck covered.

"Hmmm...... I still don't think I can take a blow"

"No. With this much aggression, as long as you poke at the weak spot, a mid-level monster can defeat even a single blow"

"... Huh? Could you have slashed all the weak spots earlier?

"Exactly not all of them, but the guy who was able to take them down with one blow, yeah"

"Yeah... what is that? What kind of arm are you wearing..."

Cocor says as surprised.

"I've been to some pretty high level parties, but I've never seen a swordsman do anything like Mr. Alvin. So's the arm, but that's all you remember about the weakness of the monster, right? I don't think I can do this without gaining so much experience..."

"Experience, of course, but I studied by reading materials in the Guild's library and persistently listening to skilled adventurers"

I say with a bitter smile.

"For pulling my legs with the drop, I have to be a little bit active"

I was desperate anyway to have a negative skill and no place at any party.

In the end, there was no place for me even if I didn't have my feet together.

"Mr. Alvin..."

"But that's not all. I don't do this solo either. It's because Cocor's here for you."

"Me?

"Oh. I can even place a somewhat dangerous bet because my restoration job is withheld in the rear guard"

It's hard to target weak spots, and when you fail, you can eat back.

Though I am confident in my arms, I tried to refrain from solo times as much as possible. Of course, it gets inefficient for that matter, but that's unavoidable.

But if I had company, I wouldn't have to worry about that either.

I laugh like the cocoa I hear lit up.

"... eheh"

"And then... to be honest, there are some things I want to show you that are good"

"Oh, what!? Hey, what..."

"I'd be in trouble if they thought I was underpowered as an avant-garde. I'm one of the people I met because of you. To the priest of level [80], we have to be unrestricted."

"Ah... is that..."

"What's up?

"... nothing."

I said it like a shank behind me.

Sometimes this is how I get in a bad mood, but I'm not sure why.

"... n"

That's when a monster appeared enough to look up, blasting heavy footsteps forward.

A body made of green boulders.

It is an emerald golem that is resistant to wind attributes and physical attacks.

It's usually quite a troublesome monster, but I was relieved.

You came at a good time. I might delude you for making me angry.

"... eh"

I pack my distance fast and hit my right foot first.

[Swordsmanship] Thanks to the use of one of my skills, "Iron Slash," the golem was a big blessing.

However, there's probably not that much damage.

Seems to be somewhat level. This could take a little while.

Take the golem's counter-arms calmly with your sword up.

Heavy noises echo in the dungeons, but mine don't even shake.

It doesn't seem as aggressive as it is.

All right, so next time...,

"Mr. Alvin!

That's when Cocor's call echoed from behind.

I feel the light coming through my body shortly afterwards, and the letters appear in the corners of my vision for a moment.

Physical Resistance Penetration.

An indication that a buff has been applied.

"Whoa!"

I raised an inspiring voice.

This changes the story.

At the same time as the golem pulls its arm.

I kicked the ground and jumped, sticking my sword tip in its thick green chest.

The sword pierces deep, ignoring its physical resistance - it was behind it, reaching the nucleus of the Golem.

The remaining HP was sharpened by one blow and the emerald golem dispersed with the effect.

Dungeon floors, as its name suggests, are mixed with coins to drop several 'emerald ores'.

I look back at the priest girl.

"Thanks. You've been buffed like this, too. Nevertheless, completely disabling the resistance was a buff that seemed to use MP pretty well, okay?

"Yes, that's not at all"

"Wow, you can count on me."

"... eheh. But Mr. Alvin reacted too quickly. That buff has a very short effect time, so I also assumed I would call it back a few times... just fine"

Then we collect 'Emerald Ore' and coins.

This ore sold for a good price, so it was a pretty tasty drop.

At the time I finished picking up the item, Fukukor said.

"Still, that's kind of a messy dungeon,"

"Hmm?"

"Do you say the monsters that emerge fall apart? What happened to the fire attributes and paralysis poison monsters up there? This place is full of plant-based monsters like Mandrake and Tentacle Plants, but I think there's some emerald golem out there."

"Hmm, right"

"Unknown themes so far and bullshit dungeons are rare"

Bullshit, huh?

True, but... on the other hand, I also felt I wasn't.

Depending on the hierarchy, there is some bias in the trend of emerging monsters.

So I feel like there's going to be some kind of law...... I don't know yet.

Set aside the mystery of the dungeon for a moment, and we decided to move on.
