A jelly-like monster is wrapped in flames and evaporates.
I entered the labyrinth and was currently exploring the second level.
The monsters that come out are the slime that has just evaporated, the familiar goblins, the bat-like monster called the Big Bat, and the rat monster called Rattal.
Slime is a troublesome monster that must be defeated by magic in order to collect the demon core, but the rest are all weak monsters that even lower-level adventurers can defeat.
While looking at the map, I am going straight to the stairs to the next level, but I feel that it is not efficient to kill time in the upper layers.
“Hmm, I understand the feeling of the labyrinth, and should I skip it a little?”
I was foolish and honestly defeated all the monsters I met and recovered the demon core, but time is money. Let’s leave the low-ranking monsters alone.
I ran straight to the stairs to the lower layer, and the monsters I encountered were cut down as we passed each other.
The corpse of the monster will be absorbed by the labyrinth, or if a lower adventurer finds it before it is absorbed by the labyrinth, the demon core will be collected and used as income, so there is no problem if left unattended.
While doing so, I came to the 9th floor … In the room with the stairs to the 10th floor, there was a big door that glowed slightly.
It used to be like a completely ordinary cave, but now there’s an artificial door. It’s strange.
A four-person adventurer party was sitting in front of the door and taking a break.
When the adventurer party noticed me, they looked surprised, but one of them approached me with a slightly angry look.
“What are you doing in a place like this?”
“Well !? Well, at the request of the Adventurer’s Guild, I was subduing the monsters in the labyrinth.”
“Are you alone? It’s dangerous for a small child like you to come to such a place alone!”
Apparently, they are worried about a child coming to such a place alone.
Looking at the other members, she looked embarrassed but never stopped.
“Hmm … I’m still D rank, so even I can subdue a monster in this level without any problems, so don’t worry.”
I Present my guild card to reassure her. Since all the monsters are weaker than the monsters that are always hunted, there should be no problem with D rank.
“Eh !! D rank !? It’s the same as us!? …… But you were trying to go ahead. Did you come here knowing the hierarchical boss room?”
“I see, this was a boss room. Is there a boss room every ten floors?”
“Yeah. The boss here is a monster that finally reaches the recommended level with four of us D rank parties, but you being alone is too dangerous.”
I see … It may be unavoidable to worry.
However, it is impossible to come here and turn back.
To save time, I want to use the labyrinth transfer board of 10 levels at least when I come next time.
It’s possible to cheat here and pretend to go home and come back later … but I don’t want to lie too much in vain.
“Hmm … But when I come next time, I want to use the 10-level labyrinth transfer board. To be honest, considering the strength of the monsters so far, I think that the boss can be defeated normally …”
Perhaps because it was an unexpected return, she was surprised.
I couldn’t see it, a warrior-like man approached me.
“I’m Wolf, the leader of this party ‘Wolf Fang’. This caretaker is Amy. Calm down, Amy. I know you’re worried, but even if this kid is lucky, he has the skill to come down to this point. Don’t think about it too much. “
“Mr. Wolf, Miss Amy, I’m thankful for your concern. I’m Sirius.”
“Sirius, Amy is a bit harsh, but she’s not wrong to say that. I’m sorry to say that you’re still rushing into the hierarchy boss alone, any good adventurer will stop.”
“Yes … that’s right … I understand what you mean …”
“But I don’t think you’re going to stop? Then why don’t you go into the boss room with us at least? We can’t afford it, but I’m more relieved than letting you go alone. And, of course,if we defeat it we can share the materials. How about it? “
This person is a very successful person.
In addition to having the kindness to protect me as a child, he is also concerned about treating me as an adventurer so as not to drop me.
This person seems to be reliable.
“Thank you for your concern. May I ask you to accompany me?”
“Oh, that’s okay! Amy and you guys are okay with that too?”
“Well, that’s fine. Nice to meet you, Sirius. Will you fall behind us as soon as you’re in danger?”
“I don’t mind”
“no problem”
“Nice to meet you everyone”
He bows to other party members.
“Oh, I’ll introduce you again. I’m the leader and swordfighter Wolf.”
“Similarly swordfighter Amy”
“It’s a Take Point fang.”
“Magician Miles”
“I’m Sirius, a magic swordsman. Thank you again.”
“Magic swordsman? What is that?”
“I don’t know what to say … I’m fighting with both magic and swordsmanship. I feel like I’m a magician and a swordsman.”
“Hey, it’s rare to use both magic and swordsmanship.”
“Generally, people with magical powers become magicians and don’t use swords.”
When I was talking about that, the faint light of the door disappeared.
“Okay, it looks like the previous party is done. Everyone is going! Is Sirius ready?”
“Yes! I’m always ready!”
All the party members nod. After confirming that, Mr. Wolf opened the big door and stepped into the boss room.
