chapter 32
Chapter 32 To the Wind Labyrinth (3)
The three of them came down the stairs and came out to the plaza.
And Az is holding the Bongsword Grungauss.
The beautiful blade reflected the light.
After learning how to groom it from the owner, I took good care of it.
I’ve been using it ever since I got it, so it’s quite familiar to Azu.
At first, I was swayed by the weight and my posture was disturbed, but
Now I can handle it skillfully.
His posture was trained while copying the swordsmanship of the King of Ashes, and his abilities greatly improved as he continued to defeat monsters.
Now, the Bongsword Grungauss and Azu were connected magically.
“Come, three.”
A demon was caught in Alexia’s search.
It looks like a monster is approaching from the passageway.
For the test, except for Arzu, the two of them stepped back.
Azu swung her sword once, raised her right hand high, and aimed the blade at her passage.
I waited for the monster with the attitude of the king of ashes.
Then I heard footsteps running this way.
Three wolves wrapped in wind came running.
It was faster than a normal wolf. Because it is a high floor, it was strengthened thanks to the strong wind energy.
Three of them surrounded Arzu as if they were surrounded. The wolf in the lead rushed.
Arzu put the sword in the wolf’s mouth.
The moment he touched the wolf, the power of Ars flowed into the sword Grungauss.
The sword penetrates the inside of the wolf’s mouth.
Then, I cut the wolf’s head diagonally as it tried to go back. The remaining wolf tried to bite the belly, so I dodged to the side.
After the sound of fangs clashing, it cut through the defenseless belly.
Blood is dripping. He swung his sword to shake off the blood and wiped the blood from his body.
Az immediately stared at the sword.
“Awesome…. Cut lightly.”
“Really? The monsters also seemed quite strong.”
“Even though I was surrounded, I got rid of it with ease.”
“Yes. But I am a little tired.”
Azu swung her sword several times.
“You’ve got some magic now, so be conscious of when you’re using it and when you’re not using it.”
“Yes!”
As Alexia said, focus on the sword.
It’s just a sensation, but I definitely felt something switching inside the sword.
Conversely, when I disconnected the magical power, the sensation that hovered just a moment ago disappeared.
The drowsiness that came after the battle has subsided a bit.
“You can’t use too much mana. It will make you unable to move.”
“You have a special move! Cute.”
“I hope I can use it for a long time as soon as possible.”
“If you defeat monsters like you are now, you will be able to do it soon. As for Az, she grows fast, and the master treats us well.”
“Ahahahaha…. It is.”
After that, the stone that fell to the place where the wolf was was recovered.
The monster seems to have been absorbed into the labyrinth.
What I picked up was a wind spirit stone. It is different in size and color from the spirit stone you picked up on the 1st floor.
“I think this is a good price. It is clear and clean.”
“Elemental spirit stones are also used for decoration. Unlike magic stones, it is easy to process.”
“Let’s keep going!”
The three proceeded through the third floor of the Wind Labyrinth.
This time I didn’t receive any other quests, so the progress is fast.
According to the owner, this time, when a delivery request is received, the selling price is fixed, so money is not available.
In terms of enemies, wolves had the highest appearance rate, followed by palm-sized bees.
Az and Elza took care of the wolf, and Alexia burned the huge bee with magic.
The deeper you go, the more bees there are.
“Where is the beehive? Shall I break it?”
“The number has also increased. I am afraid of the large saliva.”
I saw two paths diverging.
As Alexia used the scout extensively, a large number of monsters were felt in the aisle to the right.
“Right. You probably have a big room. I will prepare the magic, so please hold on until then.”
“Okay.”
“Okay.”
Moved to the passage on the right.
A giant bee came to stop the intrusion. It’s fast, but its movements are monotonous, so if you get the timing right, you can easily take it down.
However, the number increased as we went inside.
Az continued to cut down the huge bees, and Elsa beat the rest of the bees that escaped.
There was no time to pick up the falling magic stone.
“Isn’t that too much!?”
“A lot! I see a square. I’ll activate the magic once I get there, so do your best.”
“It’s fun—!”
“It’s not fun at all!”
When Az’s arm reached its limit, she barely entered the room.
Inside was a beehive big enough for one person to fit in. Huge bees buzzed around it.
Something like a caterpillar wriggled in the beehive.
There is no plant nectar, which is a strange sight. Let’s think about it against monsters.
“Now that’s enough. Here we go. Fire Storm!”
A storm of fire engulfed the entire space.
Azu inadvertently stepped back from the heat.
Huge bees and beehives are engulfed in flames and burn.
“All right. If you defeat them all at once like this, you can feel the increase in strength.”
“As expected, magic is amazing. Can I too?”
“I think it would be better for Az to become stronger as a warrior…. Well, good I’ll let you know when the time comes.”
“Okay!”
“Guys, it’s not over yet.”
Elsa looked inside the calmed Firestorm.
Something has caused the magic to disappear.
What came out of that… It was a bear.
The tips of my hair were burned, but all the embers were extinguished by the bear’s roar.
“I’m angry.”
“Well, will you be angry?”
“It makes me angry.”
