Chapter 27-Impatience and counsel
(TL:By Rafael)
"I'm fine! I think I have a slight concussion."(Marina)
" I hope you're okay."(Yuki)
I checked the wound to make sure it was just a small cut.
I use light recovery magic to seal it up.
Even though she's an adventurer, it would be a pity to leave a scar on the girl's face.
"But this armor is nice."(Marina)
"Yeah. It's very strong!"(Yuki)
That's part of it, but it also made the impact of Marina's assault sheep charge sheep-like dash hug much lighter.
In order to achieve a form and lightness for women, I heard that all but the most important parts are covered with special cloth and leather, but it is indeed the long-established "Arcee's" that can handle scenes that require hugging.
"Yuk ,Marina is a girl of appropriate age, so hugging her all the time is not a good idea."(Silk)
This is not the time to be enjoying the greatness of the armor.
"I'm sorry, But I didn't expect that to come down. If Silk hadn't found it, I'd have been caught off guard."
"No, I just found it and couldn't do anything about it. ......"(Silk)
She can't use a bow if I'm so close to it.
I guess she didn't had a choice.
"How did it go, Rain?"(Yuki)
Rain was the calmest one in the party at that time.
As a monk and a wizard, she had somehow noticed that Shadow Stalker, the man of shadows, was observing us.
It was right for a wizard to observe first so that she could approach from either side.
"He was undead, but his magic was also in disarray. Maybe it's right, maybe it's not..."(Rain)
"I knew it. It's wierd how they go from one level to another. ......"(Yuki)
I also had a strange feeling.
There is no record of Shadow Stalker laughing in the log, and his behavior is too strange.
It's like .......
"It's like 《overflow》."(Rain)
"......!"(Yuki)
Rain seemed to have come to the same conclusion as me.
This is how dungeons maintain a certain set of rules.
Demons from outside may enter and live in the dungeon, but demons born in the dungeon do not usually crawl out.
In addition, their habitats are clearly defined, and with the exception of a few special cases, demon monsters do not travel back and forth between the levels of the labyrinth.
A properly functioning labyrinth is so determined.
And when there is a break in it, ...... overflows and stampede occurs.
"What do you think, Yuk?"(Marina)
"We're at the lowest level. Let's continue our search until we reach the bottom."(Yuki)
"How about a 'live feed'?"(Marina)
(TL: The girls have started calling MC Yuk, probably a nickname)
Marina's suggestion may indeed be effective.
But this time, the three of us were wearing new equipment that hadn't been released yet by Arcees.
It's not a good idea to expose this in a live broadcast.
"Let's check the situation first. I don't want to do a live broadcast without the client's permission. It's a last resort."(Yuki)
"I see. It's still a little weird, isn't it?"(Marina)
"Yeah. I'll report it to the Adventurer's Guild when I get back and have them put together a team to investigate. I'm sure Urses will at least allow the guild to watch the distribution for investigation purposes."(Yuki)
In order to do this, we must hurry to complete the request to go to the door of the main dungeon of the main labyrinth.
That should lead to confirming the deepest part.
"Okay, let's go."(Yuki)
"Wait, Yuk."(Rain)
Rain came running up to me and reached out to touch my cheek.
The stabbing pain reminded me of the wound.
"Let's heal this wound. And take a break. It's times like this that you shouldn't be in a hurry. ......, right?"(Rain)
When a soft breeze touched my cheek, the pain was completely gone.
It was the first time in a long time that someone had cast recovery magic on me.
"I understand your concern, Yuk. But we're also full-fledged adventurers."(Rain)
"Yeah, you're right. Sorry."(Yuki)
It seems that I was a little overwhelmed by the emergency situation.
It's times like this when I need to keep my cool.
"You don't have to do this alone. Not good."(Rain)
Rain looks me in the eye as if to admonish me.
I was so pressured by it that I nodded my head.
I'm really no match for her.
(TL: Rain is the best girl and no ,I am not a lolicon.)
"Ok. ...... Each of you, check your wear and tear. I just lost a little bit of magic power, I'm fine."(Yuki)
"I'm fine too."(Silk)
"I've been healed. I'm fine!"(Marina)
"I'm fine too.I can use 《Refresh Mana》 to keep my magic power up. I'll give it to Rain too."(Yuki)
"Thank you. Yuk."(Rain)
Rain laughed, and I was a little thrown off, but I got back into the swing of things.
The only objective data we have yet is the fact that Shadow Stalker, the Shadow Man, has shown up for the first time in over a decade, and our guess is that he's probably not normal.
If we rush into things, we might overlook something and endanger our friends.
First, I'll do my job as usual.
"Okay, I'm calm now so let's get moving."(Yuki)
I gathered my thoughts and looked at the three of them.
"Silk, stay alert. I hope it's only one of those things here , but there could be more than one."(Yuki)
"Yes, I understand."(Silk)
"If there is one, there might be more than one. I'll leave the Refresh Mana on you to keep the magic power going and I will ask you to use a big attack on my signal."(Yuki)
"Hmm. I got it."(Rain)
"Marina. Be ready to move at a moment's notice. The more vigilant the two of them are, the more likely it is that our initial response will be delayed."(Yuki)
"All right!"(Marina)
I took out a few magic scrolls from my magic bag and inserted them into the holders on my belt.
As long as we leave the vigilance to Silk and Rain, we need to supplement them with the firepower they need for the encounter.
I can use offensive magic, but it's not my forte, and with ...... scrolls of magic, I can use support magic as I activate them.
" Our goal remains unchanged: to reach the innermost door. Come on, let's go!"(Yuki)
