Chapter 15 - Collision of the First Floor Underground
I climb quickly to the first floor, packing gold coins and backpacking items.
The rucksack that I have has infinite storage, so in theory you can put in anything.
The weight becomes heavier by that much, but it is forged for that purpose.
Try drinking a strength potion that increases your strength, then proceed to brute force it.
In fact, gold is nearly three times as heavy as metal.
Therefore, no matter how much your strength is intensified, your movement slows down.
“Well, it’s only possible to go up.” (s.h.i.+njo)
A lot of enemies come out, but for me who wields the strongest nodachi『Isolation』, they are small fries which are crushed with armor’s sleeves.
Even if it is obstructed by the rucksack which becomes heavier each time you go up a floor, there is no problem at all.
“Med Soaring¹ Flame!” (s.h.i.+njo)
It was an intermediate level fire-ball that I could now shoot without fail due to my mana being able to afford it, and it erases a group of enemies in a moment.
No, I no longer use a sword anymore against the orcs and kobolts.
Repelling the rusty sword with your fist inside of leather gloves, you can beat them by knocking them in the side of their face.
I’m looking forward to see how high I’ve ranked up when I check it at the oracle’s temple.
By the way, even if I am wearing the『Diminished Cloak』above, the hard leather armor which has reached its limit for durability is thrown away, and a set of steel armor that was worn by the boss of the third floor is equipped instead.
I can always buy light equipment again, and the steel armor that has a good balance of defense, power, and weight can be brought as a souvenir to Seji.
I climbed steadily up to the first floor which would soon become a stage looking like a city.
Ussah, who was running side by side with me, stopped her feet and issued a warning.
“Please wait husband. Ahead……In the hall 2 blocks away, there are lots of people that are screaming and crying masu~. It doesn’t appear to be a battle desu~ga.” (Ussah)
Ussah stretches her long rabbit ears with a ping and says so.
I can not hear anything, but Ussah seems to have good hearing.
Well, those ears did seem to have that kind of advantage.
Her long ears and pointlessly big chest being caught in one door of the labyrinth after another.
If her hearing had been bad with that, what advantage would her person have had.
“Hmm….loud….even if you say so, it’s a very long way to detour here.” (s.h.i.+njo)
“Do you want to breakthrough, Danna²-sama?” (Ussah)
With that kind of momentum, it’s a situation where you can’t go without going.
In the relatively safe first floor, it is within the range of a.s.sumption that students are just hanging out, but it is troublesome to get caught up in something.
However, there is no chance of stopping here, so I nod to Ussah and proceed.
As the hall approached, the bustle that seemed to have many people crowded here was heard in my ears.
When I entered the hall, a group of around 15 people on the left and 8 people on the right are arguing with each other from my perspective.
Everyone is threatening one another by throwing weapons, the air was blistering.
Of course, everyone is a student.
Because they are armed as is, it seems to be a labyrinth search group with combat power.
“We don’t have a school now, a student council, or anything else! We are tired of your way of doing things already!” (???)
“Now it’s time people, we can’t fight if we fail to cooperate. Aren’t we going back to our original world together?” (???)
The group with the larger amount of people in the combat group is lead by Vice Chairman Nanami Shuichi, the other has blonde hair and is wearing an iron helmet that is stretched to the cheekbone, and he is currently shouting while swinging a longsword.
I wonder if they are fighting against each other because of policy difference.
I don’t know the circ.u.mstances, but apparently it seems I have come at the worst timing.
“s.h.i.+njo Wataru-kun!” (Nanami)
“Oh, s.h.i.+njo-kun, where are you going?” (Blonde-Hair)
Both Nanami Shuichi and the blonde noticed this.
Again, f.u.c.king annoying trouble.
I can’t remember it well, but the blonde long-haired dude may be in the same Cla.s.s-F as me.
I can’t remember his name, but he seems to know my face.
“It’s a return adventure from the lower floor, I just want to go to the city, I’ll pa.s.s on by because I have no relation here.” (s.h.i.+njo)
I brought Ussah hoping to avoid getting through the conflicting groups, and the 8 people led by Blonde-helmet came and surrounded us with satisfied grins.
A fat man armed with an iron baton spread his hand out while holding a giant battle axe in front of me to indimidate.
“Hey hey, aside from going high or so, ~I guess!” (Fat Man)
A blonde haired guy with an iron helmet on his hair, with hundred-pound consistent fat like a sumo wrestler, he moved forward in front of me with an unpleasant smile that ridicules.
They are equipped with harder iron than the Nanami group.
Probably, it’s fairly strong.
The first floor orcs got to be lightly knocked down, and he earned money on equipment by earning it.
So overconfident in his power, he feels like he’s getting bigger.
“Hey, s.h.i.+njo-ku~n, do you have money back from the lower floor?” (Fat Man)
“s.h.i.+njo~ooo, I don’t care about killing you from the front³.” (OneOfThe8)
“Give us a share, I don’t mind why any woman with you is to oppose me.” (AnotherOneOfThe8)
Cries of the sc.u.m who want to talk argue unanimously.
I don’t understand what you are saying loudly, ensuing confusion from behind, who told me to die by name.
If you didn’t hang out with friends, those who are unable to say what they want to say will appear.
“Listen carefully small fries! This rucksack is full of money, but there isn’t any money for you guys!” (s.h.i.+njo)
I bashed him while roaring once.
……I mean, I thought these guys were really stupid.
I had guessed most of them had came from the same stupid cla.s.s as me, but I am amazed to hear they’re from the higher cla.s.s.
In order to bother to predict my ability, “I came up from the lower floor” taught them to take hostile action.
If it is only 2v8 with just us and the Blonde Hairs, I still understand how you can misunderstand if you just looked at the number of people and enclosed them to try and beat them.
When you are already hostile against Nanami’s group who has more people, what are you doing by increasing the number of enemies?
The long haired blonde really doesn’t think about anything.
Hence, it is an impossible action to oppose me.
To choose that unlikely option straightforwardly.
To that incredible low power, I am amazed and can’t say anything.
Even though it is still the first floor level, you guys are supposed to have experienced a battle that led life to death.
Where is your caution?
Maybe, are you thinking that such enemies are still unconditionally weaker than yourselves?
I wonder if this is an ordinary high school student.
A fool will not heal until he dies.
These idiots aren’t worth killing, but if they get in my way I will have to show the difference in power.
Whether swinging big swords and blowing them all off at once, the moment I put my hand on the sword’s handle…..
The fat man in front of me glaring at me with indimidating eyes, he disappeared cleanly as if blown away.
Then, the long blonde-haired helmet dude also disappeared from my sight.
“What?” (s.h.i.+njo)
The male student, who had been standing infront of me, was blown to the wall in a moment where I couldn’t react to.
Instead, Ussah is standing in front of me with a proud face and is sticking out a slim leg from her skirt poised without guard.
Like an arrow released from a drawn bow, Ussah, who had jumped high, kicked their heads while rotating mid-air….is it?
With speed difficult for even my eyes to follow in the last minute, she launched 2 people with a kick.
I didn’t even know if she kicked it or not, as sometimes the movement of her legs was hard to see due to the skirt of the long ap.r.o.n dress which fluttered in the air.
A lovely skirt with frills, it was like a hakama of Aikido, but what kind of kung-fu is this?
“It’s Harvest Willow・Ussah Style desu~!” (Ussah)
“Is there a proper skill and technique game?” (s.h.i.+njo)
What mystery martial arts is it?
When Ussah leaps quickly, she tramplessly steals the back of a male student, who is falling down suddenly with an expression as if cruelty itself.
Gugyutto, something sounded like it was crushed.
Perhaps some sort of bone in the body crumbled.
This person, I have to seriously stop her motivation to kill.
“I am trying to chase these guys now for you, Danna-sama. That’s a rogue desu~, you can kill him desu~” (Ussah)
“After stepping on him, will you listen Ussah? Stop it, don’t kill him!” (s.h.i.+njo)
I seriously stop Ussah who is about to stab the nail into the coffin in a hurry.
Those who were surrounding me, even though their friends are being killed, they are stubborn and hurt.
I think that excessive defense will be too much, but it is better to do intimidation to this degree.
The technique of forestalling victory while reaping the fighting spirit of the opponent.
Although it can be said that it’s impressive, it makes me feel subtle when I take my beliefs first.
“You are awesome, the iron armor is completely dented.” (s.h.i.+njo)
Those who were kicked into the wall by Ussah, I think that it’s just fainting from shock with the strong force of their heads. .h.i.tting the wall.
However, it may be slightly dangerous for blood to come out of their mouth and nose.
If the impulse is bad, you may die this way normally.
Without equipment made from iron, it would be an instant death.
It’s a cheap item like the one sold from the shop in the beginning, it’s hard and fragile iron armor, but it should have the strength to endure even if you hit it with a sword instead of being fairly heavy.
The armor has just been kicked by Ussah, and he is dizzy as if he had been beaten many times with a blunt instrument.
If her impatience is bad, the kicking technique could kill life in a moment.
The pet.i.te rabbit eared girl who flew out and attacked, it’s probably was because it was so impressive.
Both sides who had been fighting in the hall were now silent, swallowing their breaths and looking over here.
