After leaving the A rank party, I aim for the deep part of the labyrinth with my former students.

Volume 1

Chapter 3 Labyrinth Exploration and First Battle

(TL:By Rafael)

It's Bolgle ...!"

　His height is about my waist.

　There were three hairy, monkey-like humanoid monsters hanging out in a small room.

　They've already noticed this light, and we are ready for battle over here.

"I will strike first"

　An arrow shot by Silk makes a sharp wind noise and flies through the tunnel.

　It stabbed deep into Bolgle's chest without aiming.

　She still has a good arm.

"Gyagya!"

　Bolgle rushes over here with a strange scream.

　…… But Marina, who had been waiting for it, also comes forward.

　Marina wields a slightly shorter bastard¹ sword. It seems that the reach, attack power, and maneuverability are well adjusted for her slightly petite body.

　Well, let's also do some work .

　First, I shoot three types of <body strengthening> magic toward Marina, then turn my finger as it is towards the two borgles.<fall downSnare> Magic.

　It's a simple magic that just slides your feet to create a gap, but if you get it during close combat, it will be fatal.

　Yes,just like the Bolgle, who was just cut off by Marina.

"well done"

"Yeah, it's beacuse of Yuki's magic right now, isn't it?

"That's fine. But you became stronger. I was surprised."

　Bolgle is common Demonmonster

　However, the timing of their jumping out to confront it, the handling of their body, and the positioning so that the rearguard would not be in danger of friendly... Their every move was pretty good.

　If I participate in the spot, I can fight at a B-class party.

"Thank you very much, but I just trained as sensei instructed me !"

"Sensei, let's go. Now, let's collect the magic stones and proceed ahead."

　Putting a knife in the chest of the dead Bolgle and collecting the magic stones neatly.

　There are magic stones that monsters have in their bodies which is required for the Magic tool ArtifThere are many places where you can buy it, including the Adventurer's Guild, as it can be used as an operating medium or material for the magic tool.

　It is one of the sources of income for adventurers.

"Skilled."

　Rain, who was looking at the collection of magic stones with seriousness, said so.

"Because I'm used to it."

"We can't do this."

"Is that so? Well, I'll do it mainly in the future, so let's practice together when we can afford it."

"Yes"

After recovering the magic stone of Bolgle, I took the lead again and proceeded carefully through the mine.

　LabyrinthDungeon .As long as it has become one, it is not strange that traps have been made in it, and even monsters will spring up from time to time.

　However, we were able to reach the stairs leading up to the second floor without any problems.

　Is it because their daily activities are good?

"What's happening in the dungeon attack routine? Is it a break for each staircase?"

"Yeah. I also report no wear."

　So that's it. As I taught, they seem to be faithful to the basics.

　For a while, I put my back on the wall and took a breather.

"Weapons and armor are not damaged. Physical strength is sufficient!"

"Used arrows are collected. No damage."

"I have no damage."

"I have almost no damage. I have enough magical power."

regular damage checks are an important routine in dungeon attacks.

　The risk of falling into an unforeseen situation is completely different between a party that does it and a party that does not do it.

　By the way, I rarely did it in "Thunder Pike".

　It's a shame that there was no declaration until I asked.

"Well then, let's go."

　I went down the stairs while holding up the [Cantera of Detective].

　Usually, the more one dives in a dungeon more the Demon monsterbecomes stronger.

　The same is true for "Paintal Abandoned Mine Labyrinth", and the wandering monsters become a little more powerful on the second basement floor.

　Yes, the moment I went down the stairs ... I found those guys.

"Death minerDead minoris! There are many! "

Dozens of dead people with pickaxes and shovels surrounded us just down the stairs.

　Death minerDead minorIs an undeath type of Demonmonster And therefore it's not scared of pain and is generally sturdy.

"Rain!"

　When Silk called, Rain had already begun to chant.

　While striking the scepter on the ground several times, she begins to cheerfully spin the words of prayer.

"Marina, Yuki-san, take cover!"

　Silk screams, pulling her own sword .

"OK!"

"Leave it to me. <Physical strengtheningPhysical enchantment＞, <Barrierprotection＞, <Small blessingLittle breath＞! "

I scatter ranged enhancement magic.

　With this much, any attacks will not be fatal.

　Next , I draw holy water from the waist potion holder and sprinkle it around Rain.

　If they're a low-ranking undeath, this is all I need to do.

"And ah!"

　By Sneaking up to Death minerDead minor ,Marina blows them away by force.

　<Physical strengtheningPhysical enchantment > Although it has been strengthened with, is still quite a valid way of fighting in the hall.

　Well, I also have to work as the middle guard.

　I pull a SwordShort Sword on my waise out and hold it by one hand and slash again and again on Death minerDead minor.

　ShinginMithril was the material by which SwordShort Sword is made of was very good for hurting the undead.

　In the meantime, Rain's chant was completed.

　At the same time as the sound of the tin cane echoes, the soft light spreads and all the Death minerDead minors were erased.

　 No Death minerDead minors were moving,By the time the light subsided.

"Well done Rain!"

"Because I got the time to chant, I got them."

　Rain is usually modest, but of that scale <Purification of the deadTurn undead> Is not easy to use. As a "monk" , it seems that she is of rank B or higher.

　Shaking my finger lightly to Rain I cast<Continuous recovery of magical powerRefresh mana> And take the lead again.

　We may encounter many more battles with such encounters her efficiency will decrease if there is a repulsion ...

"...? Hey, Yuki. What have you done now?"

"Oh, I casted

<Continuous recovery of magical powerRefresh mana> Didn't you use ? <Purification of the deadTurn undead> it was to ease your fatigue from that."

　At my reply, Rain made a blank face.

TL Note-Do you want me to stop adding names at the end like this Chapter or did you prefer the former style . Tell me in the comments.

1-The bastard sword is mostly distinguished from a longsword because it has a grip long enough to allow two-handed use. Bastard swords have slightly longer blades as well, but they remain light enough to be wielded one-handed should the need arise, unlike the greatsword that requires two hands.
