Chapter 273: Labyrinth of Heresy 3

Walking onto the 3rd level, we couldn’t help but be dejected, like “Ah, so it’s like this even here?”.

The 3rd floor was like a single floor modelled after some ruins.

With this being the case, it was likely that what would appear would be undead. Zombies and Skeletons would not spawn naturally in the Demon Continent where man do not live. However, this is a dungeon. Though the monsters produced by the core have limitations in strength, there’s no restriction on the variety. That’s why it isn’t strange for Zombies and Skeletons to appear.

「Kaede haaaates zombie smell!!」

「I don’t think there’s anyone that likes it.」

Akane replied so. Now, when it comes to the Undead, Akane was the strongest against them.

Our party could be said to be exceedingly rich with party members. Those with the aptitude for Light Attribute Magic in the party were Akane, Laeva, and myself. More than just for recovery magic, it was also a powerful advantage against Undead and Astral-type monsters.VịSit no(v)3lb/!n(.)com for new novels

「Ah!」

「What? Zombies?」

Perhaps discovering something, Kaede exclaimed and Akane looked around restlessly in search of the undead.

「That’s not it, you know? The people who went in the dungeon with us are heeere.」

Hearing this, I tried using wide area detecting magic and, sure enough, I sensed magic power that I memorized.

「They’re coming closer. ......I wonder if these are Queen Fraal and King Gandalf.」

The others didn’t approach, but I detected the other teams exploring. It seems they still haven’t gotten that far away.

「It seems they’re having a hard time with Wraiths.」

「Yeah, it doesn’t look like there are that many people who have the aptitude for Light attribute magic within the Succubus Clan and Devil Clan.」

I glanced at Akane and Laeva, who were vanquishing Wraiths with Light magic 『Light Arrow』 so leisurely, as I said so.

Meanwhile, Queen Fraal and King Gandalf’s teams came over, and when we faced each other, Queen Fraal greeted us.

「Yes, well, please be careful.」

Queen Fraal and King Gandalf’s teams parted with us on the 4th floor, and we resumed our exploration.

「It’s a grass field so wolf-like monsters might show up, but ......... as expected, it’s still humanoid-types.」

「Yeah. humanoid-type monsters have high intelligence, so they must be easier to control.」

We still had the room to be talking as we beat around the aroused goblins and orcs that approached.

Since it was a vast grass field, Sophia’s Gloam, Akane’s Ferryl, and Laeva’s Seru came out of the Subspace and fought freely. Since I also let Titan out, we were way too overpowered.

Bugiiii!!

Zashu!

A small shadow weaved between the goblins and orcs at high speed.

It was Lulu-chan who swung two daggers left and right.

「Lulu-chan is in high spirits.」

「Yes, it looks like she doesn’t want to lose to Ferryl.」

「......the one competing with her is Ferryl.」

While Akane and I were talking, a group of more than 20 goblins and orcs were decimated.

It took a while because the place was so vast, but when we found the stairs leading down, we ended today’s exploration and set up camp by the stairs.

I’m not too well versed in sumo, so I don’t quite understand it. But the image I had in my head is like being led by the Pied Piper but instead of children, these are able fighters.
