Chapter 96

We suddenly rushed into enemy territory.

Suzuki, you're being too reckless!

"Damn it, Haru, let's go! Caro and Marina, stay on the Wyvern!"

Haru jumped down, and after I set Caro down behind me, I followed her and descended onto the battlefield. Suzuki was already fighting with his sword.

In such a situation, a mage's defense is insufficient.

I changed my class from Unemployed to Swordsman, Pugilist, Mace Wielder, and Apprentice Blacksmith.

"Suzuki, make the Wyvern fly up into the sky!"

In such a chaotic battle, I couldn't say that it would be safer for him to stay with me.

In response to my plea, Suzuki smiled wryly and said,

"From the beginning, I only intended to ask you for support, but are you going to fight with me?"

If he had said that from the beginning, he should have mentioned it earlier.

However, I'm not so heartless as to say, "Oh, really? Then I'll leave it to you."

And Haru feels the same way.

"Yeah, Haru and I will be fine. Hurry up!"

I dodged an attack from a lion's front paw with a sword I took from my item bag, cut off the monster's head, and shouted.

"Got it! Pochi! Stay in the air!"

The Wyvern responded to Suzuki's call and soared into the sky.

"Hey, is the Wyvern's name Pochi!?"

"Yeah. Isn't Pochi a common name for a pet?"

While confidently explaining, Suzuki slashed through the enemies.

...Pochi is definitely a dog's name.

There's no time to point that out.

Thanks to Suzuki's slash attack, the group of monsters seemed to identify us as the enemies they needed to eliminate.

"Nanakami and Haru, fight back-to-back! It will be easier!"

"No way! That will restrict Haru's movements!"

Her strength lies in her agility.

If she has to cover my back, she won't be able to dodge the enemies' attacks.

"As you say, Master."

While fighting the enemies, I was almost captivated by Haru's movements, which I could see out of the corner of my eye.

She dodged attacks from all directions as if she had eyes in the back of her head and struck vital points.

This is how Haru fights.

Just then, the enemy behind me was pierced by wind arrows.

And a little further away, monsters started to rampage.

This was Marina's magical bow and Caro's charm support from above.

However, the number of enemies around us was not decreasing; they seemed to be increasing from inside the dungeon.

"Hurry, we're going into the dungeon!"

Continuing to fight here won't reduce the number of monsters overflowing from the dungeon. Suzuki's judgment is correct.

With his cooldown over, Suzuki unleashed another slash, creating a breakthrough.

Amazing... Despite only having a first-class job, his power is on par with mine.

It's probably because his job is at the highest level, and the difference in swords is also a factor.

His sword is likely a high-performance one, different from my steel sword.

We ran into the dungeon.

There was no time to pick up the magic stones that were scattered on the ground.

Even though Suzuki's slash had cleared the monsters just a moment ago, the corridor was already filled with them again.

"Slash!"

I used a slash attack with my steel sword, putting all my strength into it to match Suzuki's previous attack.

The power was significantly increased.

Dozens of monsters were cut diagonally and scattered.

"Wow... I didn't know Nanakami was so strong."

Suzuki said with a wry smile.

"Well, yeah. I've been blessed quite a bit."

Most of my power comes from being Unemployed, but I can't say that because of the agreement with the goddess.

"Alright, let's push through to the end!"

I said this and turned the corner.

It doesn't look like we can push through in one go...

There's another group of monsters waiting around the corner.

How many hours will it take to reach the deepest part?

Just then,

"What?"

Something came running at us with incredible speed.

...Is it a new group?

The creature (?) knocked down the visible monsters and approached us,

"Stop! Centaur!"

"Stop! Centaur!"

I heard the voices of Elise and Joffrey, and the next moment, the three of us were knocked over by the Centaur carrying Joffrey and Elise.

As I was being knocked over, I saw the Centaur chasing a carrot hanging from a stick tied around its neck, just as I had taught it to run rampant.
