Chapter 67 Underwater Dungeons

"Um... why did you come to me before I asked you for more information?

"Sinya is sure to be able to do it!

"What's that trust...?

"Well... Sinya may not remember... a long time ago, Sinya fulfilled a special quest I ordered.

"Am I...?

"The special quest I ordered was completely unavailable to anyone... but only Cynya was able to complete it..."

"Hmm...."

Shit. I can't remember at all.

"of the submarine dungeon..."

"Ah! I remember! Surely it was a quest to get items like rainbow scales that you can get for completing Underwater Dungeons rewards?

"Yes! Yes! You remember!?

A party with people above rank A who can certainly use light magic. It must have been a special quest.

The reason should have been that the dungeon boss was weak against light magic. In this world where the Knights of the Holy Order monopolize much of light magic, there are few adventurers above A rank who can use light magic. That's why special quests are here.

"Rainbow scales, when used as powder, are a special cure for marine death, which occurs only in the Fisherman tribe.

"Death and disease in the sea?

"When you enter the sea water, the moisture inside your body gradually drains out into the sea water, and finally, it is a terrible disease that decays to death.

This disease is the present king of the Mermaids, Jigallom-Droyce. It is also the cause of the death of former Fishman King Bjarba-Doris, who is his father.

"... I see. Is the current king of the Mermaids young because he lost his father to the death of the sea?

"It was only after Bjarba died that I learned that rainbow scales would be the cure..."

"... but why did Helmia do that special quest when only the Mermaids were sick?

"... when I ordered that quest ten years ago, I wanted to help my mother..."

"Mother...?

"My step-in-law's...

I used to go into the Tavern Hague by sea with my real mother and father in order to do business. When we almost arrived at Tabenhague, the ocean became a great time and was swallowed by ships.

Unfortunately, my mother and father were at that time... but I was thrown into the sea and saved by a Fishman woman at that time.

"Is that your stepmother?

"Yes, of course, I lost my mother and father at the same time, and I lost my way... my stepmother raised me here.

In order to report back to my stepmother, who pulled me out of despair, I learned a lot and worked as a receptionist for the guild.

My mother-in-law died in the ocean, an arrow she thought she could finally repay. From the onset of marine death to death, it takes several years. Still, few of you were strange enough to clear that dungeon and get rainbow scales. Sometimes it turns out that the rainbow scale is a special potion and I don't have any in stock....

The A-Rank High Difficulty Dungeon, but because of the peculiarity of the Dungeon Boss using light magic as a weak spot, the adventurers would not have said it was dangerous.

When my stepmother gradually lost weight and couldn't do anything, Sinya appeared.

"I didn't know there was such a background..."

Special quests are rare, so take them. I think it was so light...

"For me, it was the Savior.

"That's right! Your husband is the Messiah!

At this timing, Nil's glowing smile turned towards Helmia with her hands together.

"Well, it feels like it fits somehow differently..."

"Besides, yes! Shinya, who brought me a rainbow scale, didn't receive a reward!

"What?! Really?!

Uh... certainly, I was trying to verify whether events would occur with NPC favoritism... I remember trying a lot to see if there was a hidden status like that.

When I dived into the A-Rank dungeon, I got pretty good materials, and it was big that I didn't have any trouble with money.

At that time, an item called a rainbow scale became some kind of medicine, but I knew it was a garbage item for the people, and it was attractive to give such garbage to receive a huge reward.

I wanted to know if it was possible to choose not to receive a reward, and it was the result of experimenting together.

I didn't expect that favoritism to affect the present ten years from now...

"Hmm... why are you looking at me with such sparkling eyes? Nil."

Master...

"Ah... so? That stepmother again?

Refrain from reacting to Nil and return to the conversation.

"No, my mother-in-law died two years ago, in peace.

"Well... I'm sorry.

"No, my stepmother died of laughter and satisfaction, and I was already ready to organize my feelings. Don't worry about it.

This time, my friend... "

You must be a good friend for ordering quests for your friends and seeing your current dark face.

"Really... you don't have it in stock?

"Since then, I've been regularly filling out quests for parties above A rank… The Holy Knights have started making progress, and most of the adventurers who can fight have gone to the provinces to support them.

"The only people in this city who can't fight like merchants... is that how it happened?

"Even though there are fewer people who develop illnesses, it is troublesome to run out of stock, so I've been posting it as a quest since before..."

"There was no one to take the key quest.

"Yes."

"... okay. In that case, Nil and I will head for the submarine dungeon.

"Really?!

Hermia brightens her face.

There's something I'd like to try. Just... can I go to bed? Sleepy as a boulder... "

"Ah... I'm sorry! I've been busy, but I've been visiting you!

Remember how far we've come, Hermia, with her hands on her mouth.

"You couldn't stand still about your friend. You don't have to worry about it because you know it.

"Sinya-san... thank you!

"I'll deliver it when I'm done with the dungeon.

"I see. Waiting for you in the Alliance! Best regards,

Hermia, with her head down many times, leaves the room.

"Before you left the city, you had an important job to do.

"We will serve you anywhere.

"... thank you. But for now..."

"That's right... let's rest.

I feel tired running through my body and my craving for sleep is at its peak.

When I lay down on the bed, I felt my body sinking into the bed, and immediately went to sleep. When I woke up, the light from the window changed from white to red.

"Ghhh...."

Wake up on the bed and stretch with a light fist (yawn). Nil, who was sitting in a chair and checking his equipment, turned around and smiled.

"Good morning.

"Ohaha... did Nil sleep well...?

"Yes! I feel sleepy and tired! You can always go!

Perfectly prepared Nil. Yeah, great.

"But I just woke up, so please wait a little while until I'm ready.

Nil, who listened to me and looked back at what he had done, turned bright red and panicked. It wouldn't be hard to imagine.

It is not the first time to dive into a submarine dungeon, and since some information has been made public, preparations can be made.

At the end of his dress, he handed Nil the magic book he had acquired at the previous event, still mourning his failure.

"Nil, try this.

"Is this a book of magic?

"That's right. You should be able to learn the intermediate light magic called Holy Shield.

"Intermediate light magic?!

"Where are you surprised?

"A lot of things?! Middle-level Light Magic Magic Books are expensive items for your husband to use!

Why don't you know?! I was told with a face like that.

"No, the appraisal showed that the magic shields were top-compatible. I want Nil to remember more than I do. And I want to see if I can remember the Nir of the Demons.

"... if that's what your husband says... I understand.

Nil crawled her thin and beautiful fingers to the edge of the Magic Book and slowly opened it.

………

……………

"I don't think so...

I've waited a while, but nothing is going to happen.

I think it's a matter of aptitude for light magic... but if there's a magic book, you can only remember any magic...

Receive the Magic Book from Nil's hand and read through it.

When the letters in the Magic Book emit a white light, they pop up and disappear.

"This is the magic book..."

"The Magic Book itself is quite expensive. I don't think anyone uses pom-poms either.

Now you can use the magic called Holy Shield?

"Ah, it's a superior compatibility of magic shields. It simply increases the strength and range of the shield.

"They say it's no big deal, but I've never seen such magic before! It's amazing, right?!

Nil points me out of my common sense. It's a sight to see. I don't think I'm the one who's out of common sense, but... in any case, it's the one who's out of common sense, so let's get on with it.

"Ah... I'm sure there's a lot of magic in the Magic Faction... but this will make your defenses stronger than ever. As long as I'm happy.

But... even if I could use it normally, it doesn't make sense for people who don't have the aptitude for light magic.

Because the protective magic hanging on Nil is more like a hole magic than I thought, I thought in the magic book... but it doesn't seem to work so well.

Let's look at the effect of the Holy Shield in the submarine dungeon.

It feels strange to go out to the sea at a time when it gets dark, but if you enter the dungeon, it will be in the morning or at night, but it doesn't matter much.

Enter the sea as you watch the bright red sunset setting over the horizon.

"Oops! Here it comes! Hey, Sinya!

"Norha and Psi?

"And Nilchuhhhhh!

Gombaki!

Nil's shield is pressed against Norha's face as she swims with her hands wide open.

Norha's neck bent at a strange angle, and I felt like I heard a bad noise...

"Forgiveness... hey..."

Two blood zones stretch from Norha's nose as she leans her face away from her shield and up to the water.

"Next, we'll move on to the corners.

"I feel that Nil's criticism of Norha is gradually becoming radical.

"If you don't give me that much, I'll come back to life soon, so that's fine.

A rhinoceros laughing indifferently. It seems to be very cold in Norja.

"Psi."

"I haven't seen you before.

"What's going on here?

"I've been waiting for you two.

"We're coming, too! Dungeon strategy!"

Norha, who had come back early, raised her thumb and entered the conversation. It's nice to dress up... but unfortunately, there's still a red belt coming out of my nose.

"Did Hermia tell you that?

Well... It's not just HR, it's a quest that I've always cared about. I was worried because the request form was missing.

It was supposed to be personal information and I couldn't tell you, but I asked Hermia forcefully.

... you've asked the King, haven't you? That we were cheating on Sinya.

"I don't know how to say this... well.

"I know I did terrible things for the city. That's why I want a chance to make amends.

"I'm not angry or resentful. I think Hermia told you because she knew that.

"Sinya..."

"Helmiya-san was so nervous that it was easy to get in the mouthpiece!

Norha... it's not about dressing up, stop the nosebleed first.

"Don't worry about it anymore. I don't care and I don't want to blame you.

"... thank you. Sinya."

"I think it's that pervert who blames me. Can you give me permission to use horns?

"Stop?! My horns are dead too, aren't they?!

"... eh...?

"Why can't that be...? Don't hurt your face like that!

"Stop playing in Norja. Nil."

"Yes."

"So, you're going with me, you're going to fight together?

"That's what it is. We're A-ranked adventurers working in this city. We can't just leave it to the Sinyas.

I'll give you all the monster materials, and we won't receive any rewards. So will you forgive me for coming with you?

I just talked about not having a party, and Nil is looking at me a little worried.

"It's okay. It's common to fight together in a single quest. I have fought with others a few times since then.

"... I see.

He looked at my face and smiled reassuringly.

"Don't hesitate to let them rely on you. However, the rewards and materials are split into mountains. I'm not going to let you work for free. Nice to meet you."

"Leave it to me!

"Thank you!"

"Fighting pirates wasn't a good thing! I'll show Nil how brave I am!

"I don't think that's a good idea.

"What?! Really?!

"No, you don't have to tell me.

I'm afraid of Nil's true face when I reject Norha. It's a really bad time face...

"I don't know... but we still have a chance! I won't give up!

What a mental monster. Maybe it's time to respect it.

"The destination is not far away, so let's keep rubbing together while we watch how the two fight.

"Cynthia could use light magic, right?

"That's right. Leave the light to me when it gets dark.

"That's very reliable. Then let's go!

Walk slowly through the reddish-dyed sea floor at sunset. Norha and the rhinoceros are aligning themselves with us.

"To explain the rough way of fighting, I am a sharp swordsman, but I think I am better at magic.

"I can use magic, but fighting on the Bishibashi front with a spear is more appropriate.

"When that happens, it's easy for Nil and Norha to be in the front, for me to be in the middle, and for the rhinoceros to be in the back.

Niru-chan and avant-garde! That's good! "

………

In contrast to Norha, who seems happy, Nil has a very disgusting face. I've never seen that face before!! The moment I realized I was watching you, I went back to my original face...

"Let's start with that. It's not like I can't do melee fights either, and other forms may come better.

"Nibblefish is coming soon. Let's start with me!

When Norja taps the water with a tail, she quickly cuts the water and penetrates the nibble fish with a spear that splits into three strands.

Yoo-hoo!

Rotate the curl and spear and chop up another individual.

"Come on!

Norja put her spear on her shoulder and dressed herself well. It's starting to smell a little out of respect.

Ha!

Fuck!

Nil discards the nibble fish that was attacking from behind the dressed Norha.

"Did you help me?! Nil-chan!!

"... I didn't think I had to help Nibblefish. You'll be caring for me first.

"Huh?!!

Nil scorns Norha, who smiles happily. You know I dared to leave them behind because I couldn't see other people's movements when I took them all down... no. Don't say anything anymore.

It's me next!

The rhino lightly runs his fingertips in the water, drawing a magical formation. Quite fast.

It depicts intermediate water magic called compressed water. It is magic to wrap and compress objects with generated water.

Magic is activated when three Nibble Fish move into range. Finish three beautifully.

He nodded that he was good at magic. As an A-ranked adventurer, I think it's better to stand up.

"The last one is me.

Draw a slasher blade and draw a magical formation.

"Hey!

Capture the rest of the Nibble Fish that has been attacked with Aquarizon.

Zann!

Clear all nibble fish in a flash. Fights seen with C rank monsters are of this magnitude, but the path can be followed.

"I knew Sinya was awesome. Even though you can use a water cliff, it's also a simple battle force.

"You're definitely jumping through this. In that case, I wonder if Sinya is fixed in the inner guard.

"Norha's breakthrough power is impressive, and it seems like a good form of breakthrough power.

"I think I'd better go back and support the whole thing.

"Let's start with the submarine dungeon in that form.

Most monsters encounter a path to the submarine dungeon with a C rank. As you adjust your shoulder routine and formation, you move forward in the season.

After all, as the number of people increases, you can go as easily as the burden on one person decreases.

By proceeding with the darkening sea floor illuminated with light, you reach the desired sea floor dungeon in about twenty minutes.

Decorative arched entrance made of pale blue stone. The outer wall of the dungeon, visible from the outside, stretches towards the bottom of the trench.

Determine the overall movement while looking at the information written on the underwater bulletin board.

"This submarine dungeon is an A-rank dungeon, but unlike other dungeons, there is no concept of hierarchy.

"There is no hierarchy...?

"There's a passage all the way to the back, and there's a monster in that passage. The Boss Monsters are the only ones in the big room, but there's no other room.

"Don't you have a safety zone?

There are two places. Located just in front of half of the point and the boss's room.
