Chapter 084

“It’s good that you were able to send a blow to it Lena . ”

Yu glanced at Lena . Clearly it was because of the quadruple third rank 【Black Magic】,《Raging Thunder》 . Lena clearly tried to break trough her limit .

Nina was also sitting, taking a rest . Fortunately there was no need to worry about other monsters coming to the boss room .

Nina was letting Lena use her thighs as a pillow while Marifa was stroking Sukke and Coro’s heads .

“Alright, let’s start the treatment . ”

Yu approached Eckart who was sitting down on the ground and was smiling as usual .

“Gushishi, looks like there is no problem defeating a named monster . With Yu covering our backs, we can defeat a rank 5 monster . ”

“It’s because you were here to help . If I were alone it would’ve been hard . ”

Eckart truly suffered serious injuries . Fractured bones that had popped out of his left arm, several broken ribs and finally due to the 《Storm Lance》that had managed to hit him, his innards had came out .

Yu moved to his flank and while utilizing 《Heal》 pushed his intestine inwards . Although 《Heal》 could treat wounds, the pain wasn’t alleviated . Eckart let out a voice of distress .

“Heh, I never thought that as a shield bearer you could let out a groan like that . ”

“Something that hurts would still hurt no matter if you are a shield bearer or not . ”

“So, when treating Lalit there is no need to cast 《Heal》 . ”

“Eh? How come, my ribs are also broken . I’ve been waiting for you to treat me . ”

“Gushishishi . Lalit, are you afraid of the pain? Come, I’ll lend you my shield . ”

Lalit turned pale hearing Yu and Eckart’s jokes . After Eckart’s treatment was done, Yu proceeded onto Lalit next .

From behind, Nina came and clung to Yu .

“Hehehe, I noticed and Lena explained . ”

“What is it?”

“When I was attacked, you protected me with a 【Barrier】 . That’s your doing right?”

“Yes . ”

“Hehehe . I always knew you are kind . ”

Yu then walked towards Marifa while dragging Nina that was clinging to his back . He was going to see how Coro and Sukke were . They were breathing vigorously while crouching on the ground .

“Marifa, how is Coro and Sukke’s condition?”

“In the battle, they were not attacked but the battle seemed to take its toll on their mentality . They are not able to stand up on their own . ”

Yu examined Coro and Sukke’s statuses . There was no abnormal state .

“Maybe… they’re going to rank up . ”

Lena who had regained her consciousness came to Yu’s side although she was still walking unsteadily .

(TL note: so it seemed she passed out after pushing her limit)

“But, shouldn’t it have occurred already if they leveled up?”

“About that, the phenomenon of rank up is not completely understood . There are various theories and even eating monste cores can cause them to rank up . ”

(Tl note: sometimes the author mentioned the magic stone as monster core so they might be the same thing lol)

Lena finished saying that but needed to catch her breath .

“Master, look at Coro and Sukke . ”

When Marifa said that, Coro and Sukke’s bodies were glowing, enveloped by light . After the blinding light disappeared, they still stood there but their figures were different .

Coro’s body had become slightly larger and was covered by jet black fur . Its tail became thick like a fox’s . Sukke in contrast had turned white and fluffy like a sheep .

“Oh, this is the first time I saw a monster rank up . The white one is a Sheep wolf and the black one, a Shadow wolf . Both of them are rank 3 monster . ”

“This is my first time seeing it too . ”

When the rank up was completed, the two wolves became healthy and started moving around .

“Coro, don’t lick master’s face . Sukke! Don’t come inside my skirt!”

The two that had regained their health, were playing around without listening to what Marifa had to say .

“It’s so fluffy…”

“Coro and Sukke’s tails are so fluffy . ”

Yu and Marifa couldn’t do anything except wait for the two wolves to settle down . In the mean time Lalit was collecting the materials and magic stones .

“Yu, there’s so much thing to gather . The ⌈Elder Treant⌋ dropped a magic stone of rank 5 but you said it is important to gather the branches too . Why is that?”

“When I saw the ⌈Elder Treant⌋ utilizing wind spell, it came to me that it was actually produced by its branches . ”

“Hoo . . so it can actually do that?”

“Well, there is a probability but we don’t know yet . If it can be sold, I’ll split the gold . ”

“Well, I don’t care about that since we already got a big haul here . Eckart, how is it?”

“Yeah, although it’s not a perfect magic stone but it should sell for at least 300 gold coins . ”

They also still hadn’t opened the treasure chest that was left after defeating the boss .

—————–

Silver Spear (Grade 4): Power strike

Poison Axe (Grade 5): there is a chance to inflict poison upon attack

Branch of the sacred tree (Grade 4): Mysterious branches, there is a trace of spiritual power

“Eckart, what are you going to do? Your Shield of Black Steel is broken . ”

“Don’t worry, I can still fight . ”

“Alright, then I’ll recast 【Enchant Magic】 . ”

“Ho Hoo . ”

“… . all right . ”

“Come to me~ . ”

Nina and the others said it cheerfully but Lalit and Eckart’s expressions seemed discouraged .

“This is a dungeon that no one has entered before . Let’s take it easy . ”

“I agree with Lalit . ”

Even though they said that, it still became a hell for Lalit and Eckart . From the 14F, monsters of rank 4 mixed with monsters of rank 5 started appearing . 「Murder Beetle」with its powerful attacks, 「Green Slime」that used poison, 「Mad Mantis」 with their paralysing sharp schytes, 「Dragon Fly」that could fly and attacked from above and 「Bloody Treant」that could cause a bleeding status .

Lalit was suffering from the wide variety of attacks while Eckart had already prepared himself for death several times . However under Yu’s care, they weren’t allowed to fall down . By the time they entered the 16F, they had stopped talking . At the 18F, their eyes had lost all colour . At 20F they had turned into complete killing machines, slaughtering monsters without any other feelings .

Finally, they arrived at the 22F where the teleport pedestal was .

“Alright, let’s take a break and enter . I’ll recast 【Enchant Magic】again . ”

“Wait wait wait!”

Lalit who hadn’t showed any emotions till now, cried out loudly .

“Lalit, what is wrong?”

“I think we have had enough for today . I have leveled up twice . I don’t know about you but this is definitely strange . ”

“Yeah, I also think that it’s enough for today . . ”

Due to their desperate pleas Yu gave in . Lalit had leveled up two times and Eckart three . This was because Yu was fighting all monsters that came their way without bothering to flee, dodge, or avoid them .

They returned to the entrance using the teleport pedestal . At the entrance they found out that a 【Barrier】 had already been erected . Joseph had seen them coming and went to welcome them .

When they returned to the Adventurer’s Guild, many people welcomed them .

“Lalit, you’ve done it . Finally you are a C rank!”

“Eckart, you’re also a C rank . Congratulations!”

“Nina-chan, marry me!”

“Lena-chan, how about having a meal with me . ”

“Yu, please go out with me . ”

That last sentence was said by Joseph who was teasing Yu but it was completely ignored . Lalit and Eckart were receiving the praise while crying . But it wasn’t out of joy . It was because they were relieved to be back to Comer city .

“I managed to return alive!”

“Me too . I thought I was dead!”
