Roxanne shows her the movement that you’re supposedly need to make in order to evade the monsters as good as she can.
「So you use your waist in order to do it?」
「Right. You have to meve4 them with a「Ba」. Monsters sometimes move like「Shu」,「Shu」,「Ba」,「Ba」, so you need to move the same.」
「I-I will try my best.」
Vesta nods with doubtful expression. Looks like she has enough common sense in her head to know that these instructions are not going to help her at all.
We will continue Vesta’s field trip until she becomes Villager Lv.5. If she becomes Lv.5 during the morning bit of exploration, that would be great.
It took some time for me to become Villager Lv.5, but thankfully, our current conditions and circumstances are not the same as mine were back then. The EXP gained from the monsters that are dwelling on the eighteenth floor is much better, and thanks to that, it really didn’t take all that long for Vesta to acquire Villager Lv.5.
Her current Jobs are as follows:Villager Lv.5, Farmer Lv.1, Explorer Lv.1, Herbalist Lv.1
As you can see, the overall number of Jobs that Vesta has unlocked is rather small.
Both Explorer and Herbalist were the Jobs that she obtained today after exploring the eighteenth floor together with us. Warrior and Swordsman Jobs did not appear on her list of unlocked Jobs as well, which just goes to show how she hasn’t trained that much.
It is admirable that she doesn’t have the Thief Job unlocked. It is a nice testament to the fact that even though she’s a slave, she hasn’t resorted to the life of crime.
「So this is basically how we fight inside the Labyrinths.」
「Yes, all of you are amazing.」
「I am planning on having Vesta fight seriously with us too. Think you can handle that?」
「Y-Yes, I think I will be fine.」
She looks a little tense and nervous, but there was definitely enthusiasm in her voice.
With the battles on the eighteenth floor of Haruba’s Labyrinth over, I moved us to the first floor of Haruba’s Labyrinth next using 「Dungeon Walker」, but the situation in here is exactly how I was afraid that it would be.
The monsters here are all collapsing after being hit with just a single Spell from me.
The monster’s charge was quite strong, but she received it easily with one hand and neutralized it. She’s not only good at attack, but her defenses are top notch as well.
Next, she cuts the monster from the side and catches the second charge with the shield, blocking if from doing any sort of damage once more.
Once she stops the monster in place, she stabs it with her sword, and when she does that, the Cheep Sheep drops down to the ground.
「I... I did it!」
「Yes, Vesta, you definitely did.」
I say while I open the Party Job Settings interface to check whether Vesta obtained some new Jobs or not, and sure enough, new Jobs have appeared on the list.
Villager Lv.5, Farmer Lv.1, Explorer Lv.1, Herbalist Lv.1, Warrior Lv.1, Swordsman Lv.1
Looks like the conditions for Warrior and Swordsman to be unlocked have been fulfilled at the same time.
「Excellent work, Vesta. What an interesting fighting style you have.」
「Thank you very much, master, but it is really nothing all that special.」
Contrary to what she said, the way Vesta fought just now was that of an expert fighter. Perhaps it was the instinct of her huge body that drove her like that, or maybe it has something to do with the Dragon characteristics of her race?
What made it so terrifying was how she used the two-handed sword to kill the enemies around her with just one hand, swinging that giant sword around as if it weighted nothing at all. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if some of the monsters started to run away form her after seeing her approaching them.
「When we’re going to find the next monster and it’s going to survive my Spell, I want you to use the spear to kill it.」
「Kill it with a spear?」
「Yes, because I am going to have you try using a variety of weapons in order to see which one aside from the sword is going to suit you best.」「Okay, I understand.」
I pass the spear to Vesta after I finish my explanation. Or more like, I forced her to take it while she was still somewhat confused.
Both Roxanne and I automatically obtained Knight when we got to Warrior Lv.30. In order to get the Knight job, I think it may be necessary to defeat monsters by using a spear. Apparently, it might come from the fact that the warriors aspiring to be knights train with spears as well as with swords.
Vesta hands the Steel Sword and Wooden Shield over to me. It seems she will be using both her hands to hold the spear. As expected, is it too hard to wield it with just one hand, even for someone like her?
The next Cheap Sheep that survived my Spell gets challenged by Vesta, who attacks it by spinning the Holy Spear in her hands.
