While Billy's plan worked pretty smoothly and left everyone with their mouths hanging open, he was quite pale despite his near-instantaneous victory. It was no wonder, a single mistake, and he would have lost his left arm.

”You finally decided to use that, I was beginning to think it was a decoration,” Marie said.

”Putting that aside… What you did was dangerous,” Kate said.

”Not as much as insisting on reaching the last room of a dungeon when we have a time limit,” Billy said. ”Anyway, I am not the type of pulling something risky, so this much is fine.”

While the tension was quite something, Billy also felt an awesome adrenaline boost. He had to be careful not to get addicted to it, but now and then was fine. He wanted to keep being the cool-headed guy that he was.

Billy wondered if the same tactic would work again, and it did it. However, pulling two times in the same battle was too much. The monsters weren't brain-dead creatures, after all. Regardless, after doing that for five times in a row, Billy decided to call it a day. Besides, he didn't want to keep working for Marie's entertainment.

Considering that they had to walk for three hours to reach the fourth floor and return, they only had now three or so hours to explore the new parts of the dungeon. It was a bit limiting, but Billy felt that it was just the right amount to push their limits.

The group left the dungeon around four in the afternoon and the guild half an hour later, so they had some free time. Usually, the money would be split once the entire mission was over, but they asked Billy for some coins to buy some protective gear. While they didn't want any pieces of full armor, they certainly wanted some bracers and shoulder pads. That was a good choice of gear since they didn't hinder their speed. Speaking of money, they filled half of a box with the claws and fangs, so they earned one gold coin. It wasn't a bad amount considering that they had quite the hard time against them and didn't kill that many.
