Vol. 2 Chapter 12

Translated by Mlzkzr Edited by Mlzkzr

“Kuh!”

I ———— Altria Grem, was fighting a monster wrapped in a bandage. As long as you are an adventurer, combat is a daily routine, but this time its level was different from the usual monster.

『Mummy Man Lv:233』

As a result of activating the adventurer’s essential skill, 『Appraisal』, it was displayed as such.

…… This is the first time, I’ve seen a monster with a level of over 200…… I’ve never battled against them before.

Even my level is just 100. If it was S-class adventurers, they may be fighting against these guys on a regular basis, but I had never fought with these. Seriously, I wouldn’t fight against an opponent with such a difference in ability, but it can’t be helped now.

“I have to join them fast ……!”

“Ooooh!!”

However, the mummy man in front of me will not easily let me pass ahead, and it shoots tremendous attacks one after another. Such attacks, it was only wielding its arms furiously, but each time of that, the surrounding walls were screaming.

“Tsu ————!”

“Ooooooooooo!!”

I managed to avoid the attacks that were unleashed with a creepy scream, at the last minute.

However, I wasn’t able to avoid it forever, and I was blown away by a heavy and sharp blow on my stomach.

“Guh!?”

I crashed into the wall as it was with such a severe pain that was about to take my consciousness away in an instant, and it cracked the wall. Still, when I see that the wall is still not crushed, I suddenly thought that it was a considerably sturdy wall, and it didn’t matter to it even if it was under such circumstances.

Moving away from the wall, I collapse on the spot.

My consciousness is being hazy. To be honest, I want to fall down just like this.

But …… but I can’t lose my consciousness here ……

All the guys who had approached me until now, became unhappy regardless of my intention.

With such a God of Death-like guy like me, no one can get along with me. I’ve always lived with that in mind.

But it’s different, those two were different. Those two people who didn’t feel unhappy, let alone care for themselves, and tried to help me ……

By any means, I have to join with Seiichi and Saria……!

There has never been such a thing, done in my life.

One of the reasons may be that they don’t know my secret, but still, I was honestly happy that they tried to help me like this.

I whipped my aching body, and took a recovery medicine out of my item box and drink it all at once.

In the end, it’s just a recovery medicine that can be bought at stores all over the place, so I knew its effect, but it was still able to recover me to the point I could move.

Until I return to them safely, I will never fall down or die.

That’s why ————

“Don’t hinder me! Get out of thereeeeeeeeeeeeee!!”

“Oh!?”

I wield the legendary-class weapon that is close to my height, 『Battle Ax of the Earth (Ground Ax) 』. Then, as it is, I activated my skill with all my strength towards the mummy man.

“【Power Slash】!”

I slammed the large battle axe to the mummy man in front of me.

“———— Raaaaahhh!”

“Ooooooooooooo!!”

As it was, I left it to the momentum and slashed the mummy man.

“Haa …… haa ……”

The mummy man becomes particles of light as it is, and disappears.

There was a big difference in level, so I was worried if I could beat it with a single blow, but the effect of the 『Battle Ax of the Earth (Ground Ax) 』 is that it doubles my physical ability only during battle, and it seems that the skill 【Power Slash】 has doubled its attack power, and I managed to push it out somehow.

Before I knew it, the wall I crashed into had no cracks, and it re-existed in a beautiful state.

…… The structure of the dungeon is really a mystery. I wonder what kind of material can automatically restore it ……

While thinking about such an insignificant thing, I quickly collect the drop items that was scattered around, and I started running again.

Along the way, I repeatedly battled with many other monsters, but I buried everything with all my strength.

Since I was dealing only with monsters with a higher level than myself, my level had risen to 123 before I knew it.

In combat with powerful monsters, my fighting skills have also increased, but at the same time, I often get hurt, and finally I have used up my recovery medicine.

And when I noticed, I reached a certain place.

“This place is……”

In front of me, stands a huge gate.

The color of the gate, itself looks black, but it had a mysterious color, that looked gray or white.

Various jewels, such as red and blue are embedded in it, and there’s a shape of a dragon engraved in it.

The carving, was both artistic and intimidating enough to make my instinct feel that it’s dangerous.

“Is there no other way than here?”

I looked around, but there was no other way to go to other places than the road I came from.

I carefully touched the walls and floor to see if there was a hidden door, but

“…… It does seem to be nowhere……”

I couldn’t find, any hidden doors.

“That means …….”

I look back at the door in front of me.

I didn’t know if there were any more places to search since I followed various routes along the way. There may be a place I overlooked or a hidden door like the one I was just looking for, but I can’t find one at all now.

Considering that there was no mechanism leading to a hidden door on the road I was walking on, it’s unlikely that Seiichi and his company have reached a hidden room.

“As I thought, is this the only place ……”

The door in front of me that emits a dangerous atmosphere.

It’s possible that Seiichi and his company are inside this door, but it is also possible that they are not.

I wouldn’t jump into a place where I can tell at a glance that it’s dangerous.

But only now, there are people who I want to save even if I risk my life. I took a deep breath, and made up my resolution.

“……Alright”

I gently touch the door in front of me. Then the jewels embedded in the door began to shine.

And, the door in front of me opened automatically without me needing to push it.

“!”

Surprised by the sudden event, I tighten up again and step into the room.

“…..”

I entered the room, but it was pitch black and I couldn’t see anything.

In this situation where visibility was unreliable, I raised my vigilance to the maximum.

It was at that time.

“Wha!?”

The entrance door got closed.

I rush to the door, but no matter how many times I push it, it didn’t work. What’s going on……

I sweat on my forehead due to tension and vigilance.

Then suddenly, the previously pitch-black room became brighter.

“Tu!”

I frown my face in the room, which suddenly became bright. And, when I got used to the brightness, I looked around.

“Eh————”

And, what jumped into my eyes ————

『As I wonder who came …… did you come to be eaten? Little girl …… 』

————was a huge jet-black dragon.
