Chapter 21 – 5th floor.
Maybe it's people who killed that man. I looked at the bag in the man's hand, which had some items, but I didn't take them. Then, I walked toward the presences I felt.
I hid behind the wall, breathing calmly to stay calm. For some reason, I feel nervous. Is this fear of other humans?
I don't know if I'm prepared to fight humans.
Carefully, I looked at the presences in the middle of the dungeon path. 'They are monsters. They're kobolds, and one of them is holding a sword. Did it steal the sword from someone? The others are armed, too.'
Maybe they stole these weapons from that guy's friends. Their bodies must be somewhere.
Without drawing attention, I used Dark Magic to create a black mist that slowly filled the path. The kobolds realized what was happening and started running, afraid of the mist.
But I didn't let them escape and used Dark Magic again. I threw something like a rope that hit the feet of the four kobolds. The rope didn't tangle around their legs, but it knocked them down.
With my high speed, I quickly ran towards them.
One of the kobolds noticed me and used its only arrow to shoot at me. With my agility and perception, deflecting the arrow shot by the kobold was easy. The arrow didn't come too fast because of its lack of strength.
But the kobold aimed well.
SLASH!
And before the kobolds could recover, I swung my sword at one of them. Its body exploded into particles, and its sword fell to the ground. Without thinking, I picked it up.
I swung both swords, hitting two kobolds simultaneously.
Their bodies exploded, and the kobold holding the bow dropped it and started running. I sighed and tightly held the handle of the kobold's sword before throwing it with all my might.
VUOSH~~
The sword cut through the air, hitting the kobold directly in the back. Its body exploded into particles, and an item and a magic stone fell.
It took me a long time to get out, but it wasn't night since I arrived at the dungeon very early. Many eyes fell on me, especially from women. Then I saw the same woman who tried to approach me before.
Not the second woman, but the first woman. She is not as beautiful as the woman who tried to put me in her group, but she is pretty.
As soon as I appeared, her friend smiled and slapped her back, encouraging her to talk to me.
"Excuse me!" She was trembling, very nervous.
"Yes?"
"Would you like to come have a drink with us? I saw you inviting that woman earlier, so I was waiting for you... I'm sorry if I'm too inconvenient, but you are handsome."
"For someone who's very nervous, you're being sincere. Sure, let's go out for a drink, but only tomorrow, okay? I need to go to the guild now."
"Oh, what a shame." She lowered her head disappointedly but soon cheered up again. "Does that mean you want to drink with us, right?"
"Sure, sure. Tomorrow night, okay?"
"Of course! We'll be waiting for you here, okay?"
"Sure, I'll be here in the night."
"See you tomorrow." Her eyes were shining. It was cute. She looked like a young college girl who was still very innocent. Different from her friend, who seemed mature.
They are very different from each other. It will be interesting.
After saying goodbye to the two girls, I went to the guild to get my money and then went to the church to give a portion of the money to Hestia.
I thought about going after Aisha again but decided to prepare for tomorrow instead. I took my backpack and left it ready to take to the dungeon tomorrow. I'll buy the food tomorrow.
After that, I decided to go to bed early today. Tomorrow will be a fun day.
