kamthorn puntumapon thanks for the peanuts. How do you even pronounce it though. By the way I never explicitly said this before but 2 double quotes (""*insert dialogues*"") means that it was said by multiple characters at the same time or so I assume that's what the author is trying to do.
====================================
\n
Why is he going back and forth between the labyrinth, the arms shop, and the tool shop?
What does he actually think of the order from Count Beetle?
Also, it is a question mark why is that person also entering the labyrinth.
He is planning on something that’s for sure.
Blair, along with his men, was keeping an eye on someone today.
\n
It had been another week since the goblin general hunt with Clarice.
Clarice is leveling up faster than even Ike. She is already up to 15.
\n
Today, Clarice would start practicing her barrier magic.
But I don't know what to do when it comes to practicing barrier magic.
There is no grimoire, and of course, there is no one to teach us.
We had come to the spring room without any clue.
\n
“Barrier magic, I tried to find a clue by suitably guessing from the type of magic but…seems like it isn’t going to be easy to learn it.”
\n
“Let’s brainstorm as much as needed to use barrier magic. Anyway, let’s just do our best.”
\n
The actual reason to learn this is for the sake of Clarice’s safety so I would really like her to be able to use it.
After all, it is called barrier magic so it is easy to imagine that it’s magic that protects the target’s body.
However, I don’t think it’s good to put too much pressure so I said what I said before.
\n
The joyful time with Clarice in the name of training passed rapidly.
\n
“I’m so sorry, Mars. I'm sorry you have to go through so much with me. I can’t help but feel a little depressed since I still can’t learn it after all that…”
\n
“There is no helping it. This is magic exclusive to Clarice in the end. Tomorrow we will attack the boss’s room so let’s stop here today and fully rest at home.”
\n
She couldn't learn the barrier magic even after a week of trying.
And it was one day until the appointed day.
Clarice worked quite hard.

\n
She would have about the same status between a C or D-level adventurer.
She might be weaker than someone of similar status because of her lack of real combat experience though…
Her level hasn't changed from a week ago but her skill level has increased.
Come to think of it, Ike was only up to level 15 in the spring room.
Maybe we can only increase the level up to 15 in this room?
\n
As for me, my status had not changed at all.
\n
It was the morning of the day we entered the boss's room.
It was morning but the sun had not yet risen.
I didn't tell Gray and Erna that we were going in today.
But they must have read it from the atmosphere.
They said things like, "Make sure you come back safely." and "If you don't think it's possible, it doesn't have to be today.”
\n
We left the house reluctantly.
Then we headed for the Adventurers' Guild.
\n
Today, Count Beetle goes to the labyrinth with us.
He won’t be going to the boss's room but he is going to follow us to the safe zone and watch over us.
We are to meet the Count at the Adventurers' Guild.
We are not going to keep him waiting so we arrived at the Adventurer's Guild an hour before the meeting time.
Count Beetle arrived almost as soon as we did.
\n
“Oh, we came quite early but seems like we made you wait in the end, huh?”
\n
“No, we just arrived as well.”
\n
“Good luck today. You can expect a reward for your efforts today.”
\n
“Thank you very much. Without further ado, shall we proceed?”
\n
“Please wait for a moment, I'm going to take a few of the Knights with me today. Even within a safe zone, I feel uneasy.”
\n
Then, about 10 members of the Knights appeared from behind the Count.
One of the men greeted him.
\n
“It's not my first time meeting you but this is the first time we've spoken. I am Blair, the Knight Commander. Sir Mars, I would like to send my gratitude for your timely assistance during labyrinth overflow (labyrinths). Although it might be late, thank you very much.
Also, Miss Clarice helped take care of the Knights. Thank you.
I will be guarding the Count today, so please allow me to accompany you.”
\n
“"We look forward to working with you."”
\n
My first impression of Blair is solemn and strict.
He seems a bit inflexible and will not tolerate any kind of mistake.
I appraised him.
\n

\n
In terms of ability, he is about the same as Clarice, with Clarice's skills being higher but Blair's more experienced.
Van, the leader of Azure Fang, is definitely stronger though.
He seems to be a baronet and the Knight Commander at the same time.
\n
We decided to walk from the Adventurer's Guild to the Grantham Labyrinth, as it was close enough.
Clarice and I walked in the front of the line, with the knights walking behind us, protecting the Count.
After a short walk, I felt a strange sensation. It was the same gaze I had felt the other day. Today, I was able to catch it more clearly than usual.
\n
“Clarice, do you still feel something like a gaze?”
\n
“Now that you mention it, I think I might feel something...from the back?”
\n
“Yeah, it has been following us from when the residents were accompanying us outside. It’s definitely not any ordinary resident’s.”
\n
I slowed my steps and stepped back closer to the Count.
\n
“Count Beetle, Knight Commander Blair, is it my imagination that something doesn't feel right?”
\n
“What do you mean?”
\n
The Count answered in surprise.
\n
“I've been feeling a gaze from a little while ago. Today it feels particularly stronger...”
\n
“I'll deal with that after we conquer the labyrinth. I've already taken measures on my side, so Mars, please concentrate on the labyrinth.”
\n
I was a little surprised this time. The Count also knew about the discomfort.
I went back next to Clarice and told her about it.
\n
“There’s definitely something going around behind our notice. But the Count is right. Let's concentrate on the labyrinth first.”
\n
“I understand. Let me know as soon as you noticed something. I don't want to have any regrets.”
\n
I headed for the labyrinth with a hint of uneasiness.
