"I didn't expect that the path of the little girl back then became the representative of the adventurer in the city."

After digging out the portable furnace and ore, Tsubaki took the badly worn slasher from Ais, and started the maintenance of the weapon while talking, while Ais sat on the bench next to her and watched her.

"Aren't you laughing? I'm actually doing this kind of redundant work for adventurers who haven't made a contract with me."

Tsubaki came to Orari earlier than Ais, and once had the opportunity to sign a contract as a blacksmith with the sword princess, but Tsubaki never did that, and it is still not clear from her tone. Hear half regret.

"Ten years ago, no, nine years ago, when you were like an unsheathed sword. This sword will fight no matter how worn it is, and I thought you would break sooner or later. After all, you were still young. ."

Probably not wanting to lead the topic too heavy, Tsubaki blinked and joked, while Ais sat obediently and listened quietly.

"To be honest, Jian Ji, I never thought that one day I would help you adjust your weapons."

Every blacksmith will feel awkward when he encounters a qualified adventurer, the sparkling rough stone, but Tsubaki has no such feeling at all when he encounters Ais. The girl who has done everything for her long-cherished wish is completely unable to act as a blacksmith. Tsubaki of the teacher.

"But that's of course, you know, why I can only forge weapons, I never thought of helping you adjust weapons."

"because I......"

"Because you are not the owner of the weapon, you are a weapon yourself."

Looking at Ais who was lingering, Tsubaki continued.

"The title of Sword Princess is really ironic. I heard that the gods gave you this title, but I laughed for a long time. After all, you felt like you might be broken at any time.

Until a few years ago, the girl was still on a headless rampage, and she would continue to fight even if the blade was tattered.

At this time, Ais couldn't help but remember what Loki, Rivia, and others often told her: "If you run around without a head, you will fall into trouble sooner or later."

"However, you have changed now."

Eh......?"

"I mean you've become smoother," Tsubaki raised his sword to observe carefully, a soft smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Although people still say you look like a puppet, I don't think you're as cold as before."

Hearing this, Ais' expression darkened.She is also conscious of herself. She is not like before, she is no longer a sharp sword, and she is no longer the one who keeps fighting for the sake of grief.The obsession that must be fulfilled began to thin, which was what she feared the most.

"Could it be... am I getting weaker?"

In the end, Ais couldn't help but asked aloud.

"Of course it has become stronger, hasn't your level increased?"

"That's not what I said."

Facing Tsubaki's jokes, Ais rarely strengthened her tone, and her face, which was hailed as a puppet, showed a wavering look.

The first thousand one hundred and sixty-four chapters hang shoulders with monsters

Because of her comfort, she gradually forgot her goals, and she might even indulge in her current happiness. Thinking of this, Ais couldn't help but feel a little bit of fear.

"Perhaps you're not as sharp as you used to be, but I think you've regained your scabbard."

Tsubaki raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Ais.

"It is precisely because of the protection of the scabbard that the sword does not have to keep its edge at all times. Only when it encounters an enemy who really needs to be killed, the sword will be unsheathed to protect the important person. In other words, you have your own partner."

"You haven't become weaker, it's just that you are questioning whether you can protect them because there are more things to protect."

Tsubaki handed the repaired hooded sword to Ais, put away the portable furnace and ore with a smile, and watched Jian Ji put the silver-glowing love sword into the sheath.

Although tomorrow will be the day to enter the depths, there is still a little liveliness in the camp. At this moment, Jian Ji, who feels that she still exists in the world, walked back to the tent with peace of mind, not noticing the people watching her from a distance. sight.

"What are you looking at, Bert?"

On the western edge of the camp, Finn approached Bert, who was sitting alone on the edge of a cliff.

"... Looking at the monster lair we are going to stumble tomorrow, do you need to ask?"

Burt quietly withdrew his gaze to observe Ais, and said, staring at the large hole leading to the lower floor in the distance.

"Oh? But Burt is actually looking at something else."

The voice of the head of the villain easily shook Bert's heart, and the werewolf clenched his fists.

"I'm talking too much, can you tell me, Bert, that you went to Ais and Xia Heng and what they were doing? I really want to know what happened in my team 々F.

"...Finn, do you know there is someone stronger than Lv.7?"

After a long silence, Bert, who was sitting on the ground, asked.

"The strongest in the labyrinth city are only those two Lv.7s. I haven't seen anyone above them. Could it be..."

"The fierce Ota of the Freya family is still Lv.7."

"Ah, isn't that the one at the top of our family's blacklist?"

"You and I both know how strong Ota is, but that's it, I saw someone who was stronger than Ota, definitely stronger than that fierce one. Ais may not have noticed it, she only cares about getting stronger, but I It's very clear." Burt said with a gloomy face, "The guy named Xia Heng is very strong, much stronger than what he has shown. At the beginning, he probably came to our family."

"...I remember, Loki talked to you about this person before, right?"

Finn bit his thumb lightly, showing a thoughtful look.

"We have similar opinions with her, he is like the gods, a guy who just acts out of interest. It can be said that he does things regardless of the consequences and only considers pleasure, but it seems to be just right to maintain the bottom line... Do you think we are in the end? Is there anything worthy of his action?"

"I don't know, but if Loki continues to investigate..."

Burt's face darkened completely, and Finn nodded.

"I'll let Loki not go too deep, and it's not a bad thing for us to maintain a balance of mutual use with him for the time being." After that, the two looked at the entrance to the deep layer in the distance and remained silent.

In the darkness, the monster's roar kept echoing, and the angry last words disappeared with the sound of the flesh being torn apart.

In an instant, the roars from a large number of monsters turned into miserable screams, and then fell to the ground with the sound of "Peng" falling, revealing purple crystals in the darkness.The slender fingers picked up the crystal from the ground, and put it in his mouth and crunched it.

"what are you doing."

A voice that was indistinguishable from the gender came from the darkness, mixed with the strange sound of the body wriggling, and the red hair, which was particularly conspicuous under the weak light of the crystal, veered slightly towards the source of the sound.

"?々 Are you blind? I'm eating."

Ruiweisi looked at the visitor who walked in front of her, and said in a cold tone.

I don't know which room in the dungeon, the monsters that were taken out of the magic stone and turned into ashes filled the entire room, and Rivis, who slaughtered and captured these monsters, was indifferent.

The magic stone was sent into the mouth and shattered.

"Jian Ji and the others have already reached the depths, why haven't you acted yet?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, the purple-robed eccentric said with reproach.

"You know that too? This body consumes too much."

Rivi didn't care that she was wearing a tattered battle suit that was peeled off from the adventurer she had bladed herself, she stretched lazily, and then used the big sword at her side to pierce the giant green i that had not yet turned into ashes. their abdomens, (well) pierce their bodies with their hands to dig out the magic stone.

"'Arya' they've done too much damage, I need a good rest. Also, there are strong guys over there."

Ruiweisi glanced at the purple-robed eccentric who seemed to want to say something, and continued to speak.

"They will definitely reach the fifty-ninth floor where 'that' is waiting... In the fastest case, it doesn't matter if 'Alia' is dead."

"Are you trying to disobey God!?"

"I don't care how you use us, do whatever you want, but don't restrict us. Also, you go and talk to Enio, and let her show herself occasionally."

Seeing the purple-robed monster trembling with anger, Ruiweiss turned and walked towards the monster caught by the piranhas.

Chapter [*] The monster hidden in the dark

In the dark labyrinth, the hands of the clock announced the arrival of morning.The girl standing in the open space closed the delicate silver pocket watch and looked up at the head of the little human race standing in front of the team.

"Let's go one by one."

Ignoring unnecessary encouragement, Finn leaned on the long eaves in his hands and gave orders to the team standing in front of him.

With the cheers of the team members who stayed at the temporary station and the superior blacksmiths, the elite team of [*] people jumped off the rock plate, walked into the gray forest, and headed towards the big hole in the distance.

The forwards are the Amazon sisters, the central defenders are Ace, Bert and Finn, the backs are Rivillia and Gareth, plus one or two supporters in each position, there is no doubt that this is Lowe. The golden lineup of the base family.

The 437th floor, which is a safe floor, rarely has monsters, and this time the road to the deep layer did not have any crisis in [*] as Finn thought, and the team members also talked and laughed from time to time, not because of the upcoming Go deep and over-stressed.

"So far everything has been going well, except..."

Finn narrowed his eyes slightly and rubbed his aching thumb lightly.Seeing the big hole entering the lower level approaching, he temporarily buried the ominous premonition in his heart and said loudly.

"Okay, let's stop chatting, everyone, get ready to fight."

Everyone walked out of the gray forest. What they saw in front of them was a deep and dark hole. Looking down from the entrance, they could see a steep passage like a cliff, and countless sparkling monster eyes below.

"—Come on, Tiona, Tione!"

The entire team set up their weapons, and the two Amazon sisters, the avant-garde, rushed down the cliff and shredded all the monsters with exaggerated huge weapons.

"As planned, we will proceed directly on the regular route! Be alert to the emergence of new types of monsters!"

The deep layer from the fifty-first to the fifty-seventh floor is a brand-new labyrinth structure. The floor, walls, and ceiling of this area are all bright black, and intricate and uniform passages connect one large room after another.

At first glance, it looks similar to the upper floors frequented by rookie adventurers, but the scale is vastly different.In such a deep area, the entire team follows Finn's command and moves forward without stopping.

Dash forward, in order to enter the fifty-ninth floor, they must avoid any unnecessary fighting and attrition.

"The front passage is generating monsters!"

"Don't worry about the avant-garde! Ais, Bert, you guys deal with it!"

"Yes!"

Only when the avant-garde rushed through the passage, the walls on both sides were cracked, and groups of monsters appeared in the passage, and the new monsters were greeted by two recurve knives and a rapier.At the same time, the dungeon seemed to roar, and countless monsters on the floor swarmed from everywhere.

From fork in the road, from the ceiling, from the walls, from anywhere possible, monsters keep attacking the team that keeps on walking.The continuous encounter with the enemy is a deep threat, and at a speed far superior to the upper layer (bddh), the swarms of monsters undulating like the sea surface are constantly attacking.

"Ooooooooooooooooooooo-1I?"

In front of the team, the two Amazon sisters wielded huge weapons that were too exaggerated to be used by giants. They brought a burst of blood, and the bodies of the monsters directly turned into two pieces and flew in the air.

"Well, it's more messed up than I heard -- oh, I earned it!"

Tsubaki, who squinted his eyes and watched the two of them, pulled out the dagger around his waist to kill the attacking monster in seconds, picked up the fallen weapon materials, and happily threw the materials into his backpack, imitating the tone of his master god.

The supporter who witnessed this scene was avoiding the monster's attack and asked with a trembling voice.

"Miss Tsubaki, why are you so strong even as a blacksmith..."

"Well, because I often have to test weapons, right? I wanted to see how much my weapon could do to the monsters in the labyrinth... So I slashed and ran to a deep place, and then changed stronger."

Tsubaki replied while concentrating on gathering materials, occasionally attracting the attention of monsters and involving the surrounding supporters, but it was still within a range that would not cause any trouble to the team.

"Lefiya, don't arbitrarily refine your magic power. Otherwise, new types of monsters will be ushered in, and you will start chant after encountering them. Leave it to Ais and the others now."
