Ha, haha, hahahahahahaha I see *sigh*
Ah, no, dont take this the wrong way, master. While its true that Magic Crystals can be sold for a very high price, filling them completely takes a huge amount of time. No one will be able to sell more than a few Magic Crystals across the span of their entire life, so even if you dont have one with you now, it is not that big of a loss as you seem to be thinking it is. So dont let it get you down.
Is she actually trying to comfort my stupid ass? That is so sweet of her.
So? How can we get our hands on this Magic Crystal?
Normally they can be found in the chests found in Labyrinths, but the Adventurers Guild also sells the depleted ones.
Then well go do that later. As for the ones found in chests, I cant say that I saw any during my previous forages here.
Yes, I dont think I ever happened upon an item like that when I was grinding the money to buy Roxanne. But now that I think about it, maybe there was something like that here, but I just ignored it because I didnt know what it was?
This Labyrinth has been discovered only recently, correct?
Thats what I heard. Supposedly it has been discovered only a few days ago.
In that case I dont think were going to find any Magic Crystals in here. It takes a long time for the magic to gather and the crystals to materialize.
Then I probably didnt miss any of them. Good to know.
Is there any other way of getting money in the Labyrinth other than looting monsters and collecting the power in Magic Crystals?
We could always try finding treasure chests.
Treasure chests, huh?
Regrettably, I havent seen those around here as well.
Thats because they rarely appear in newly-found Labyrinths like this one. I heard that they are the most common in the ancient Labyrinths.
Oh really, thats a shame then, but nothing we can really do about it. Lets just go and focus on finishing this run safely, okay? Now, where should we go from here?
Now that I also know that I didnt miss any treasure chests due to my own negligence, I can fully focus on going forward without worrying. Onward ma.!
Master, wait!
But once again, Roxanne stopped me before I could so much as set foot outside of the room.
What is it, Roxanne?
I grabbed Roxannes hand and forcefully pulled her towards me. Then I turned her around and placed Durandals edge next to her throat.
Eh?
If you care about this bitchs life, then hand that sword over to me or else! Something like that might happen.
Y-Yes, youre right, master. If that sword really ia as amazing as I think it is then that is certainly a possibility. I understand. I wont tell anyone about it.
Sweet.
I released Roxanne from my villainous grasp. What I did just now might have been confusing, but just like Roxanne said just now, its a scenario that might end up happening for real if we were to brag left and right that we have such an amazing weapon with us.
But if such a thing do ends up happening, then please, be sure to choose the sword over me.
Now thats a promise I cannot make, because if I had to choose between the sword and you, then I would choose Roxanne without a second thought. You are more important to me than the sword. But if it was at all possible, then I would have like to to avoid losing either of you.
I I see. Thank you, for thinking so highly of a simple slave such as myself.
I know I just said that such a thing might happen, but I dont even want to think about such a scenario.
Roxanne knelt down and picked up the branch that the Needlewood left when it died. She then handed it to me, and I have safely placed it in the safety of my backpack.
Alright, which way should we go now?
If we continue to head straight, we should eventually reach the point where we will be able to go to another level.
Okay, straight ahead it is then.
Th thank you very much.
Roxanne said that out of the blue while bowing her head down deeply.
Huh? What for?
In the past, when I was taken to various Parties as one of the members everyone either ignored or disregarded my opinions simply because I was the newbie of the group. Not only that, whenever there were battles, I was always ordered not to get in everyones way or to try and launch sneak attacks on the enemies.
What a waste of your talents. But fear not. You have such amazing skills on your disposal, so I intend to put them to good use. I mean, whats the point of having some useful abilities if youre not going to utilize them for the good of the Party.
Yes! I am happy that I can be of service to you, master!
So Roxanne was being disrespected in the previous Parties she was a member of? So the relationship between Party members can also be like that, especially when we take into account the difference in experience between the veterans and the newcomers.
Great, another thing that I had no idea of because I a a newcomer to this world myself. Just fucking great.
