Chapter 30. The 3rd Floor

After meeting with Kodachi-san, we took a lunch break in the dungeon and explored the 2nd floor again.

The first monster we encountered was a single goblin.

The goblin raised its weapon and attacked us.

“[Fire Bolt]!”

The fire magic that Yuzuki unleashed struck the goblin as it came toward us.

With that blow, the goblin turned into a black mist and disappeared, and the magic stone rolled on the floor.

The goblin gets killed within seconds after Yuzuki encounters it.

“Oh, I could kill the goblin with a single blow! Aren’t I awesome, senpai? I feel like I’m the strongest again!”

My younger brother’s eyes were sparkling, appealing to me like that.

I chuckle and pat my cute little brother on the head.

“Oh, wow, you sure are amazing. It’s also very charming how quickly you get into the swing of things.”

“Right? Hee hee hee.”

Yuzuki’s cheeks relax as if she is happy.

She doesn’t realize the irony, but she’s on board.

Yuzuki’s magic power at level 3 increased from 10 to 12 compared to when he was at the first level, so that may have affected him.

Kodachi-san, looked somewhat restless when I patted Yuzuki on the head.

But then she looked aghast, shook her head, and coughed.

“Ho, I get the feeling that Hotaru-chan has become quite strong. You can make it to the 3rd floor, don’t you?”

“Yes. I’ve also acquired the [HP Up (Endurance x4)] skill at level 3, so it’s unlikely I’ll be killed instantly by the goblin archer, right? ───What do you think, Yuzuki? Do you want to go to the 3rd floor?”

“I want to go! I’m going to show you how strong we are now that we’ve become the strongest!”

Yuzuki strikes a boxing pose and shoots out a jab.

Your method of attack is not that, though.

But then Yuzuki looks at Kodachi-san and smiles.

“By the way, Kazane-san. Are you jealous of us?”

Our kouhai suddenly said something out of context.

What is this guy saying out of the blue?

But Kodachi-san, perhaps having an idea, blushed a blush on his cheeks.

“Heh heh! Na, na, what ……!”

“Heh heh, well, I guess you must be missing human skin, huh? I’m sure if you ask him to do it, he’ll be happy to do it~?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Hotaru-chan. ……?”

“Your eyes are swimming, Kazane-san. Uri-uri~”

“Hotaru-chan, stop, stop ……!”

Yuzuki bites down and drives Kodachi-san to the wall of the cave.

.

Kodachi-san was confused.

“Hey, Yuzuki, I don’t know what it is, but don’t embarrass Kodachi-san.”

“Kya-in!”

I grabbed Yuzuki by the neck and yanked her off Kodachi-san.

Kodachi-san was relieved.

Yumizuki, on the other hand, gives me a resentful look.

“Senpai! Grabbing me by the neck is not something you do to a cute kouhai girl like me! You treat me like an animal!”

“I think you as a puppy.”

“That’s terrible! I’m going to protest! I’m going to appeal to the Humane Society!

“You’re still a brilliant goofball, aren’t you?”

“Heh heh heh, not so much…”

“You’re getting all flirty with me there.”

As usual, she switches tensions quickly.

But there is one more tension change.

Yuzuki sighed heavily, somehow.

“…But still, senpai, I’m not so sure. I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t think that’s right.”

“No, what are you talking about? You’re switching so fast. I don’t understand.”

“Oh, ……, that’s okay. I don’t want it to go too well. I don’t want you to be bothered with me, so I’ll play along and tease you.”

“Wait, wait, wait, don’t say you’ll play with me as a normal senpai, kouhai.”

But Yuzuki shook her head in disgust at my protests, giving me a look that said, “You don’t get it.”

I’m not sure if she’s still trying to respect me as senpai or not.

I don’t care.

＊＊＊

When Yuzuki’s strength had increased to a certain extent, we went down to the 3rd floor.

In our current party, the goblin archers are the most frightening thing on the 3rd floor.

I am not sure if the goblin archer can withstand the concentrated fire of the Yuzuki, just in case.

However, since Yuzuki has [HP Up (Endurance x4)], I think she’ll be fine if nothing too serious happens to her.

Incidentally, when seekers fight monsters, as long as they have HP remaining, they will not be fatally wounded out of the blue.

To put it more bluntly. If our HP is not gone, we won’t die.

It seems that some fateful force, such as an enemy’s arrow that happens to hit us in the wrong place and kills us instantly, does not happen.

My intuition as a seeker also tells me such things will not happen.

The most important thing to keep in mind so we don’t die in the dungeon is to manage our HP.

My sensibilities as a seeker have convinced me of this unrealistic notion, and it is probably the correct perception of reality.

Based on this thinking, I told Yuzuki about the plan.

“Yuzuki, you should watch out for goblin archers, that is, goblins with bows. His durability is the same as that of a normal goblin, so when you encounter it, attack it first with a [Fire Bolt]. Kodachi-san and I will stop the goblins and hobgoblins that try to fight in close combat, so don’t worry about it.”

“Roger! I’m looking forward to working with you, Kazane-san.”

“Yeah, I’ll take care of it, Hotaru-chan. I’ll show you lots of cool things about me.”

“Oh! I want to see it. I want to see it!

“Kodachi-san has been feeling a bit clunky lately. I’ll have to make up for it here and there.”

“What, ……? Is that really so, Musou-san? Do I seem like such a clunker to you!”

“Oh, no, uh, …… sorry, that slipped out.”

“No, no, no, it’s okay, Musou-san! Please do that more and more! I want to have a lot of light-hearted exchanges with you as you do with Hotaru-chan!

“Ha, ha ……”

Kodachi-san was showing enthusiasm in a strange direction.

I guess he’s lonely after all, yes.

And so, as we were exploring the 3rd floor with such light-hearted or not-understandable talk, we eventually encountered our first monster.

The monster composition was one of the groups I least wanted to encounter.

1 hobgoblin and 2 goblin archers.

What part of this I don’t like is that there are two goblin archers.

If the two of them were to concentrate their fire on Yuzuki. She might be a goner.

Conversely, if we could defeat them without any problems, we could explore the 3rd floor with this party composition without any major problems.

“Well, it’s our 3rd floor debut battle!”

Yuzuki’s body is covered with red magic.

Kodachi-san and I also took a battle stance to face the hordes of monsters.
