Episode 30.14-15

"Eh. Don't tell me, is that Pijo's medicine?"

"Pijo?"

"An apothecary. The best one in this town, see."

"Hou. So this town's got apothecaries too."

"He's a super elite apothecary invited to work here for a lot of money by Marquis-sama personally. I mean he's a direct pupil of Herb Saint-sama after all."

"Hou. Impressive. By the way, who is this marquis."

"Oy oy Lecan. There's no way you wouldn't know about this town's lord, right?"

"Ah, town lord huh."

Who's the town lord, what court rank do they hold, none of that matters to Lecan so long as they don't get in the way of him exploring the dungeon.

"Wait what, you really didn't know?"

"Don't care."

"My word. Marquis Giluent Notes. One of the only 13 marquises in this kingdom. That aside, mind if I take a look at that pill."

Yoana took the pill and looked at it from every angle.

"Hmm. How'd you get your hand on this thing?"

"I made it myself."

"Haa? The heck, a sham huh."

"I guarantee its effectiveness. You can have that. Give it a try."

"Hmmm."

Yoana was looking at Lecan with doubtful eyes.

And yet she seemed curios about it, she took a water flask and drank the pill down with water.

"Alrighty. I'm done with my preps. We're going to another floor now, aren't we?"

"Yep, so where to now."

Bruska looked at Lecan.

Lecan replied.

"We're heading for floor 89."

Bruska pondered about it for a while before nodding.

"Alright. Let's go there."

"Bruska. Floor 80s are a bit too tough for five, no?"

"No. Records of past Dungeon Conquerors showed that the most successful party was a five-person party. In fact, every room is occupied by so many magic beasts from floor 80s and down, making it too cramped for a ten-person party to fight well. A party consisting of five capable and well coordinated members would be best."

"Hmm. That may be right, but you know."

"Let's just give it a go. But I'm not gonna budge from the entrance okay. I'll get away as soon as things are looking bad, you hear me now."

"Fumuu. I suppose we will then if Yoana is also in agreement."

"No magic beasts in two step area around the entrance. Four to the right, five to the left. They're not crowding together. Meaning no open space."

"That's a curious formation. All right. The rush-in order will be Arios, Lecan, Tsuinga, me then Yoana. Arios, it will be tough but please hold off those four by yourself."

will be hindered from shooting magic if you attack their chest area and above. Holding off four of them alone is possible if there's no in the mix. It won't last forever however.

"Understood."

"Lecan and Tsuinga, please lure the five deeper to the left. If I defeat one with a back attack, and Yoana another, there will be three left. Defeating three shouldn't be an issue with the help of Yoana's magic. Afterward, all of us can deal with the together."

Yoana cast support magic, and finished preliminary casting of .

"You're all ready to go then. Good, charge!"

Arios charged in, followed by Lecan.

Lecan's role is to prevent even a get to the right side. Hence he went for the rightmost among the five.

A slash with cut off the magic beast's neck.

Tsuinga got in too, stabbed at the leftmost beast's leg, pierced the abdomen of another beast to the right, then he dodged to the left, positioning himself behind the left beast.

As for Arios, he instantly decapitated the foremost as he got in and then ran deeper to the right while injuring the other three along the way.

Lecan lopped another 's head off while sensing Bruska charging in.

with its powerful graces demonstrated terrifying power here, easily reaping the highly defensive along with their neck guard in one slash.

Tsuinga hit a that was raising its hammer with the blunt end of his spear, sending it flying, and pierced the throat of another creeping in from behind.

This was when Bruska made an odd move. He ran up to Lecan. Which ended up with him colliding with the Tsuinga sent flying.

Yoana who got in after Bruska readied her wand in an attempt to shoot at a in the left wing, but she couldn't manage to due Bruska getting in the way.

The that collided with Bruska somersaulted mid-air and landed near the entrance. With Yoana right in front of it. The regained its balance and raised its hammer overhead.

"Yoana!"

Tsuinga shouted out loud, but he had his hands full dealing with the before him.

Lecan threw his sword.

The sword pierced the back of the targeting Yoana, and came out of its belly. That wasn't enough to kill this magic beast, but sufficient to halt it for a moment.

Its throat was right in front of Yoana.

Lecan shouted out loud.

"Shoot!"

"!"

The magic beast's head got sent flying high into the ceiling before crashing and falling.

"!"

Lecan recited that almost at the same time as Yoana's spell.

"Tsuinga! Focus on the foe before you!"

Lecan ran to the right and knocked down a with .

Thanks to that Arios gained enough leeway, and reaped the remaining two beasts in no time.

Tsuinga finished off the last .

Two treasure chests got dropped. A Large Red Potion and a Large Blue Potion. They gathered magic stones and went in a vacant room.
