Chapter 30 (1/2)

The Shaman can't become a Hero

Act 4: Two-Headed Hound

Chapter 30: The Hirano-Nishi+yama pair

“Hey, Moin’ ya here!”

As his first series of words, Hirano-kun came to us with that

“Err, by Boss you mean?”

For theus, so I try probing by returning a question

“A Dog, it’s a dogversion of those red ones! It’s like, super fast, and dodges Magic too, we seriously can’t do a thing with just me and Nishi+yama”

“Uh huh”

Sees is the Boss Hirano-kun’s talking about, but it’s not like we’re in a gaive a feel like, the hell’s with that

“Aht to think, Momokawa-kun, you don’t know about the Boss?”

Perhaps inferring frolasses wearing Nishi+yanorance

“You’ve been transferred here, so I’d have thought you beat the Boss”

“Do you ?”

“Ah, so you had a frog In our case, it was a Skeleton though”

Fro to Nishi+yama-san’s words, it appears that this Boss is the Monster that rests in the roo to other areas

This dungeon isn’t fully connected via physical passages, and in specific spots, there seems to be space-time displacement, in other words, warp enabled Transfer Circles set up Furthere class Monster inhabiting it, and the mechanism’s set such that the Transfer Circle won’t activate unless you beat it To be point-blank, you need that Monster’s core to work the Circle so all paths lead to beating the Monster anyway

“First ti it, all of that”

“Seriously? It ritten plain and sih”

“I think, the info getting to us has individual differences in ti”

At some point before I realized, my Note Circle was updated with the info on Go on the vocation, different amounts of information come in, it’s a possibility

Anyway, rather than pondering on this kinda-useful buta pact of cooperation with these classmates

“Err, So uh that Red Dog Boss”

“Yes exactly, siht?”

“Any alternate routes? Or what about secret passages or loopholes?”

“This floor is constructed in a simple box shape, so the farthest room is the Boss room any side you pick” [1]

(TN: Box isn’t accurate, it’s more like an ellipse with two pointed ends as we’ll see a bit later

)

According to Nishi+ya this Fairy Square, the path splits to the left and right And going either way, you go the saain Finally, as if placed exactly opposite to this Fairy Square, you find the Boss Room

The paths on both sides are connected to es, and apparently, a fixed number of Skeletons come out inside

H made soic? Well, there’s no way Monsters would just pop into existence in real life, so one could think it’s accoic

“About hidden passages, sorry but with our vocations and skill sets, it’s impossible”

“You gotta be a Thief or somethin’ for doin’ that”

A Thief’s detection Skills are so about Natsukawa Minami from Futaba-san

And, these two must also know of a Thief’s Skills since they mentioned it

I, either one of them is a Thief, or they know one, I can think of those 2 possibilities Right, let’s take this chance to probe them

“Thief Skills huh, you know any details?”

“Y-Yeah, I ht”

“Hirano-kun, we have to tell them I mean, if we don’t, they won’t see just how scary that Boss is”

You’re right, said a paling Hirano-kun, as he collected his thoughts and began talking

“Actually, we also had Itou”

In other words, Itou Seiji, it irls so there’s no mistake

He was like me, the type that doesn’t stand out in class As for his club activities or friend circle, I only ever rarely spoke to him so I don’t know

“So you mean, Itou-kun was a Thief”

“Yeah, thanks to that guy, we cleared the first place hella easy”

“He could find traps, and even open Treasure Chests”

“ Treasure Chests? There’s those too?”
