We arrived at the 5th floor. There a safety zone created by the guild in this floor. The degree of danger will definitely jump up after this floor.
First of all letâs check everyoneâs conditions. Everyone had recovered completely thanks to the level up, but just to be sure.
Amylâs armor had one wide open cut near the stomach, but he managed to avoid instant death since he had a chain mail equipped below it. As for his armor, the part below the stomach had been torned up to his feet, obstructing his movement. Thereâs no way he could act like this with his bottom part obstructed.
Although Lelena got equipped with an iron breastplate, thereâs a cut from her left shoulder to her chest. Isnât that a lethal wound? If our level did not immediately went up, itâs possible that she might have been dead.
The two of them should buy their armor again once we returned to town. The monster core we obtained from the Dragon Fang Warrior shined in green. Since its from a high level enemy, itâs likely that it would fetch a high price.
Next, I tried the power of the Flame Magic Level 2. I began shooting the flame ball normally, but it seems to have double the power, and it seems like I can use another type.
Although the size of the fireball is as big as a soccer ball, it only exploded without scattering any flame.when I try experimenting by shooting it to the ground, a big explosion occurred destroying the surrounding rock wall, creating a small crater on the ground. This looks like it will be effective on enemy with hard armor.
Now then, although the armor is a bit unreliable, letâs continue our exploration.
When we advanced forward, immediately thereâs enemies reaction. The map shows that itâs a place like a large hall. The enemies doesnât move from there. The number is 10. Thereâs quite a lot huh.
When I carefully sneak in to peep at the status of the enemy, I was able to see many goblins with huge bodies. Thereâs also goblins holding a cane among them.
âTheyâre Hobgoblins and Goblin Shaman.â
Amyl tells me that in a low whisper. I see, itâs like that huh? It must be the high rank goblins. Will the shaman be able to summon anything?
âSomethingâs not right. Although usually they could summon the spirit of the dead and deploy them, it seems that theyâre able to summon a strong demon too. We canât be careless here.â[T.N:Theyâre talking about the Dragon Tusk Warriors being summoned by the shamans]
Thatâs right. Letâs attack with my best effort right from the start without being careless. Iâll let you test the new explosion magic I just learned. I work out an image where it would hit the ground at the center of the goblins. The goblins suddenly began making a commotion, did they sensed our presence?
I jump out of the cover, shooting the magic as well as preparing my shield. A ball of light flew at high speed and the the ground at the center of the goblins. When the air shook, an explosion roars and the shock wave scattered to the surroundings. Pieces of the goblinâs hands and feet flew around, while the enemy reactions decrease one after another.
We readied our weapons and charge forward. Although thereâs still half of the enemies left, the one that survived were injured so thereâs no way we would lose.
I dash forwards and cut off the neck of one Hobgoblinâs head. Amyl chops off the arm of the Hobgoblin that tried to attack me, and I slashed its stomach, killing it.when I move my eyes to find the next target, an arrow sticks to the head of a goblin between the eyes. You can do it, Claire. Lelena was fighting with the Goblin Shaman, smashing its head with the morning star. Thatâs scary.
The only one left was a Goblin Shaman. But before we could kill it, it had finished the summoning. The space distorted next to the Goblin Shaman, thereâs a sign that something big is coming from the inside.
Although Claire managed to kill the Goblin Shaman with her bow and arrow, thereâs no sign that the summoning is interrupted.
The head is the first that appeared. Itâs a head of a big lizard covered in rugged scales, pushing itself from the distorted space.
âBaby Dragon!â
Lelena shouts with a tensed voice. That dragon is still a baby even with that size. It will definitely be stronger than the average monsters. However, there no rules stating that I need to wait for the whole body to appear. Iâm the type of man that if I had a chance will attack the robot when theyâre combining.
I cut the dragon that only appears until the shoulder, and it raised an angry roar as it canât move. Itâs the moment that Iâve been waiting for!
At the same moment it opens its mouth wide, I shoot the explosion magic right inside the mouth. A great explosion occurred inside the dragonâs body when it closed its mouth by reflex. The dragonâs mouth split when the explosion sound was heard, popping out its eyeballs. Its outsides might be tough, but the same canât be said about the insides.
The completely dead dragon, only had its whole body summoned after it became a corpse. I managed to defeat it without a scratch.
âYouâŚIâve never heard of such a method.â
Everyone had a dumbfounded look when they see me. Is it wrong to have an easy win?
âLetâs quickly collect the monster coreâ
I calmed everyone and ask them to confirm our loot. Hobgoblinâs meat canât be used. Since youâre going to have a loose stomach if you eat them, no one wants to eat it.I managed to get a red monster core from a black goblin. This should fetch some high price.
However, the dragon contains so many rare material that it can be said that its whole body is a treasure. Although itâs not an adult dragon and just a baby, it would still fetch a high price.
When I confirmed the fully summoned dragonâs body again, it seems that it doesnât have wings, the so called Earth Dragon. The length is around 5 meters? Although itâs a bit small for a dragon, itâs bigger than a human. I wonder what would happen if I fought it directly?
I pull out the fangs from what remains of this head. They seems to have used this as a catalyst for the Dragon Fang Warrior that tormented us. Next, I separated the body by parts as I decided to collect the meat as much as possible. Dragonâs meat seem to bring good luck, so it seems to be popular among adventurers.
Although most of the internal organs were ruined  by the explosion magic, fortunately one of the two hearts remain intact.[T.N: Either the dragons in that world had 2 hearts, or I made a mistake somewhere]
âI heard that it could be sold for 10 gold coins.â
Amyl is in good spirits. Iâm surprised that itâs higher than I had thought. I put the eyeballs that popped out inside the bag, and starts tearing the scales. Somehow it feels like tearing off scabs for some reason, so Iâm kind of disgusted right now.
Since we canât take it all because of the unreasonable amount, we only select those of the highest quality. Thereâs a scale especially different quality from the rest. Its called the reverse scale, the piece called the dragonâs weak point.
Finally I collected the monster core. Although itâs the size that fits the palm of my hand, its purity is obviously different from the normal core even if it was seen by amateur. I took the monster core of the Hobgoblin to compare the extent of the difference, this one had a jewel-like beauty.
I didnât forget to burn the leftover unnecessary materials with flame magic. Itâs going to be troublesome if it becomes an undead.[T.N: Eat them you fools. Itâs a motherfuckin Dragonâs motherfuckin meat.]
And now for the level up. Although we obtained a lot from defeating the Hobgoblins, most of the experience value was obtained from the dragon.

Amyl went up from Level 17 to 21. Lelena went up from 16 to 20 respectively.
I decided to take ăSwordsmanshipďźLevel 3ă this time [T.N:*Facepalm*]. For the skill level in this world, 1 is for the  inexperienced, and level 2 is for when some general training had been taken. 3 is for expert. 4 is a master. 5 basically means thereâs nothing left for you to master regarding that skill.
I will be able to move the same like an expert with this. Claireâs level in Archery has also increased. In her case, it seems like her actual skills are higher than stated. It wonât be long before she overtake me in Speed and Dexterity.
All the members managed to reach the original goal of getting to Level 20. Although we still have a few more days to spare, letâs consult with everyone to decided whether to advance or return.\n
