<hr class="wp-block-separator">\nI immediately got used to the feeling of dungeon crawling since Iām not a beginner in the first place.\n
But no matter how used Sybilla is on doing things alone I canāt leave her to be the vanguard.\n
I pull my newly bought sword from its sheath and stood in line next to Sybilla.\n
<Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Iāll go front.]\n
[Ara, is it alright for a recovery mage to be in front?]\n
[ā¦Why not when itās possible for an offensive mage?]\n
[Hm ā Itās common sense for recovery mages to be on the safest spot thoughā¦ Well, youāve already bought a sword too. If youāre going out front why donāt we just line up together and watch out for each other? The dungeon is wide anyway.]\n

I nod on her proposal and walk next to her.\n
We watch our surroundings as we went further on the slightly downward slope of the dungeon.\n
The walls of the dungeon are emitting lights made out of magic which strangely eliminated all the dark places.\n
Itās really different from your typical cave.\n
We are on high alert for paths from the side. The two of us are not your typical rearguards whoāll be careless from attacks from the back.\n
Around the time that we walk that much.\n

[Looks like there really are monsters as expected.] (Sibylla)\n

Sybilla used her sword and pierce a slightly visible shadow deep into the dungeon.\n
Thereās a goblin over there.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Oh, at least it follows the basics of the dungeon for starters. Well, then!]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla held her left hand in front and release a fire ball.\n
ā¦Did she just cast magic without chanting?\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Gyyaa!]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
The goblin made a small squeal before taking the fireball on its face and stop moving.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[ā¦What was that just nowā¦?]\n
[You havenāt seen chantless magic before? Well, it wonāt work unless you really concentrate. Also, using a magic you just recently learned and on your same level is out of the question. Itās a little trick known to only a few knowledgeable people though~]\n
[I didnāt even know that it can work like thatā¦]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
The party was too strong back then that we havenāt encountered a situation requiring magic with immediate casting.\n
We had Jannet always do the opening strike with her powerful [Sage] magic and large mana pool.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Fufufufu, thatās offensive magic. You jealous?]\n
[ā¦Well, yeah.]\n
[Ohā¦ Do you want power?]\n
[Whatās up with that all of a sudden.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla went to face me with a bit seriousness on her face.\n
Whatās up with ādo you want powerā. This woman is really bad news with these weird cult invitations.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Do you want power that can overwhelm monsters?]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
What? You still going with this?\n
Donāt come closer with your queer questions you shameless mage.\n
I prepare my left hand to chop her head any moment right now as I cringe.\n
Just a little closer and let me see that pretty head. I wonāt be satisfied unless it leaves at least a bumpā.\n

[Do you want the strength to extract your revenge and settle your grudges?]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
ā!?\n
I wasnāt able to react for an instant.\n
Revenge.\n
Iām not thinking of it right now butā¦ I canāt say that I never had the thought of it at all.\n
Before I notice it, Sybillaās now really close and in front of me.\n
Asking something like if I want powerā¦\n
Thatāsā¦\n
Thatās something I really want to have.\n
The despair I have knowing that I am actually useless.\n
While I see my bestfriend who I grew up with had that destructive powers.\n
An overwhelming destructive power.\n
A power to attack and destroyā¦\n
If I have that kind of abilityā¦\n
A power enough for me not to lose to the hero, Vince.\n
Sybilla, if youā¦\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Do you want it? Want it? Ohā¦ I wanted to eat that squid earlierā¦]\n
[Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]\n
[Ouch!!!]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
I raised my hand up to the sky and chopped Sybillaās head along with the heavy weight of my feelings.\n
Now I feel refresh.\n
Whatās up with this girlās stupid lines earlier.\n
I feel so dumb taking her seriously after being reminded of that trauma. Ahhh so stupid.\n
Yareyare. I should stop taking this girl seriously.\n
But stillā¦ Chantless magic, huh.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[If itās like that then maybe I canā¦]\n
[It still hurtsā¦ Well, even you should be able to do it with <Heal> atleast, right? I donāt have any idea about [Saint] class but you should know it at least from level 3.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla cut the Goblinās purple ears as she replied to me.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[The recovery magic I learned from level 1 huhā¦ I think I can do it.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla suddenly stop as she holds the goblinās ears with one hand and look at me.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Heal? From level 1?]\n
[Isnāt it normal for a [Priest]? Otherwise they wonāt be able to do their jobs at all though.]\n
[I learned the fireball I used earlier when I was level 2 though. For someone to get the abilities of their classes at level 1 is something I havenāt heard ofā¦]\n
[Oh, is that so?]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
I didnāt have someone to compare with so I obviously donāt know that.\n
For the purposes of magic, maybe Jannet at best?\n
ā¦Or not. That [Sage] had been bombarding magic left and right even when we are still level 1.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[I seeā¦. So thatās how it is for saints. Anyway, letās move on.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla put the goblin ear in her bag and started to move forward again.\n
I still have something I am curious about but Iāll just follow Sybilla for now.\n
However, just as we started to move, another monster appeared in front of us.\n
Its body is color black and a bit hard to see but its weapon on its hand is emitting a little light so we were able to have an idea of its location.\n
When we got a closer look, it seems to be another Goblin.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Isnāt it black? I suddenly feel that this dungeon is really dangerous.]\n
[Is it strong?]\n
[Itās stronger than the normal ones. You should get yourself together too.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla put her sword into position and extended her left hand forward.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[<Fire Arrow>]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
The size and power of the Fire Arrow she released towards the Goblin is not comparable to the chantless magic she used earlier.\n
I thought that it will end with just that but I was surprised that the black Goblin managed to dodge and then went straight to Sybilla at high speed.\n
The small dagger in the black goblinās hand glows.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Sybilla!]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
I made a quick stab from the side to the black goblin aiming for Sybilla.\n
The sword pierced its throat ending its life in an instant with just one hit.\n
It looks like that my arm that I used to hold a sword all those times havenāt rusted yet. With this fight, I think Iām starting to get familiar with my new sword too.\n
Itās not the right time for me to be immerse in these feelings though.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Tskā¦ Now Iāve done it.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla looks on to her wound hatefully.\n
Blood flows from her white legs.\n
She looks so bitter right now and is not comparable to that carefree face she had earlier. The wound looks deep too.\n
I have to use recovery magic fast.\n
ā¦Thatās it. If I can use chantless magic then I can recover while in battle which should make things better.\n
(ā¦<Heal>)\n
Hmmm. Like this?\n
As I recall how I feel using recovery magic in my head, the wound from her thighs disappeared immediately.\n
Sybilla strokes her legs lightly and looked at me with her eyes wide in surprise.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[You used it just now, right? I thought I was cut really deepā¦ For it to disappear in an instant. As expected of the [Saint]-sama. I offer my humble thanks to you.]\n
[Ohā¦]\n
[Butā¦ With this, itās impossible for us to explore the dungeon anymore right.]\n
[N? Why? It appears to me that youāre not hurt anymore though.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla kicks the dagger of the goblin.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[This black goblinās dagger has poison, you know? I think Iāll start to lose my strength later onā¦ Seriouslyā¦ I prepared for poison too but how could I know that a black would appearā¦ Even if the wound is healed, at this rateā¦]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Poisonā¦ I see. It must have been the same thing that attacked Brendaās mother.\n
Her story about driving a monster away from the dungeon and feeling sluggish and had to lie down the bed for a long while after that.\n
The monster was really driven away or it somehow managed to escape. That mother might be strong too now that I think about it.\n
I see. If thatās the case, then-\n
(<Cure>)\n
I used the poison recovery magic as well without chanting.\n
I wonder how will this work.\n
After I use my magic, Sybilla tilts her head to the side as if she noticed something and started to move her hands and feet to check her body.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[ā¦.huh?ā¦.Huuuuh?. Russell, you, just nowā¦ to meā¦.]\n
[I told you, right? That the mother from beans field was poisoned and I helped her with <Cure>. I thought that it was the same poison and just use chantless magic to you and it looks like it worked.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
After I said that, Sybilla looked at me with a stupefied look with her eyes and mouth wide open which Iāve never seen her do before.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[ā¦Chantlessā¦Cure? At level 5?]\n
[Yep. Why?]\n
[By the way, when did you learn it?]\n
[When I was around level 2.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
Sybilla took a pause after hearing what I said and started to think seriously for a moment before giving out a deep sigh.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[Anyway, thank you. Iām really glad Iām working with you.] (Sybilla)\n
[Is that so? Well, there are times I felt you helped me too so its fine.]\n
[Youāve fallen for me already, No?]\n
[Iāll chop you.]\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
This girl will eventually get ahead of her self again so I walk and go slightly far ahead.\n
Translated at Simplyrical.home.blog>\n
[ā¦Youā¦did this?ā¦]\n
Sybilla is saying something behind me but I donāt want to do anymore with this girlās nonsense so Iāll just ignore her and have her keep talking to herself.\n
