Chapter 22 – The Hero terrorizes 2

When, without lowering my alertness, I quickly looked to confirm Minnalis’ situation, it seemed that she had alreadybeen slashed ical poison, the Grey Garuish The only one re was the 『Black Gar a weakened state

It see, prioritizing evasion and wounding the Gar the poison soak in

「Kufufu, no, dance, kufu, kufufu!!!」

「…No, so it wasn’t fighting cautiously but rather just torture, huh? Right, and she has been using 『Poison Demon of Phantom Flahting style, but it sees

It would seem that Minnalis had a constitution that made it easy for mana intoxication to occur If she used 『Poison Deet completely consumed by the exciteh into the clouds

Even now she was co spirit turned into outright sadis you die with a first-rate poison… Ah! Milord!! Why!?」

「Even if I say it, it’s not likely to help, but cool your head a little」

Sighing loudly, I stabbed the Black Gar it to the ground

「Theft is unfair! As an apology, I want a kiss, please A kiss A KISS!」

「Stop this silly talk, hurry up and cut off its neck already I haven’t killed it yet but it’s bound to die soon」

「Uuuhh, I get it」

I used one hand to hold back Minnalis’ face, as she had ju

The Grey Gar due to the poison

Minnalis brought her sword up and decapitated the Black Garht

「Here, an MP potion」

「Milord, u」

I ignored the strange scenario created by Minnalis teasing me with upturned eyes and forced the potion bottle into herher drink it

With this, after a few e” into a standard issue, usual, cool Minnalis At the sa used to the mana intoxication itself, so that when the combat ended she would return to her normal self, once she recovered her MP

「Puha, aah It wasn’t mouth-to-mouth but this is fine too」

「Aaah, yes, yes You rest, since I’ll be doing the dis Minnalis after this, I quickly took out the newly unlocked Soul Sword 【Plump Squirrel’s Pouch Sword】 from my sword belt This Soul Sword’s appearance and feel didn’t exactly suggest the function of “Cutting” The weapon didn’t even reach fifty centith even with the handle included and the part that should be the blade was fully covered in light-brown fur lacking any kind of edge It seeht’ve been more accurate to call it a flabby rod made of pelt

Its effect was the so-called Itee without a limit became possible

Most Soul Swords would disappear and refor from my hand for a few minutes However, this one wouldn’t do that, moreover, it could produce several copies of itself It would even, as long as I allowed it, persist when held by others And thus, Minnalis also sacrificed 5 of her maximum MP to wield one for personal use

Once mana was poured into the 【Plump Squirrel’s Pouch Sword】 the cylindrical blade would swell up like a balloon and its furry tip would open like a bell mouth

I placed the Soul Sword suitably on its side and held the carving knife bought fro theation and other usable eon tended to be taken in by the dungeon shortly after death, so if the dis

Given that we had suffered a pincer attack from multiple monster packs and had to expend soht, it would be too wasteful if that happened

「I should hold onto this as well, just in case, huh」

The two pieces of the cursed weapon 『Greatsword of Fervent Grudge』, that was used by the High Sword Goblin before it broke in half, were also thrown inside the bag

At the time I finished with all the work, the first round and sunk completely without a trace

I returned to Minnalis and noticed she was htened arousal triggered by the very tense situation that bleay her reason had died down

「Erain…」

「I don’t h, as could be expected, fighting two packs at the sa that, I sat down next to the rock that Minnalis sat on

Originally, ere fighting the Grey Garms pack that had the Black Garm as their leader I wanted Minnalis to experience a battle in a place with e rocks, however, as ere fighting, the Goblins happened to coht tieons were unlike the ones outside in that aspect, even if the packs were of completely different races, if there were huether with the huood ether And in this case, Goblins and Garood compatibility

Like that, the nu the two groups with Minnalis and confronting the, shall we have a break to eat soeon Core roo tosaid that I took out some dried meat, hard black bread, and water froh the luardless of tiht was, predictably, beco Minnalis had too felt in her brief ti locked up in the deepest part of a prison and she made a very small nod

I put the flask made of leather like cowhide toaround in battle This water was obtained from my very first Soul Sword 【Water Spirit’s Droplet Blade】 unlocked by experience points saved up after entering the dungeon

This one didn’t have a blade, it was a Soul Sword that had nothing but a handle It was a weapon that would conjure a thin blade of water created fro inthe weapon without a place ater would be unreasonable but by infusingwater Thanks to this, the proble travels were resolved easily

After the two of us finished cleaning up the h I didn’t expect any more immediate assaults, there wasn’t time to dawdle Minnalis who had with her own body experienced the eight days of being inside a dungeon had also quickly finished up with her meal

「Now then, from here on we’ll head towards the Boss Rooeon already」

The group that had cleared this dungeon in the first run was the Hero Party, with me as the leader, after hardly any time had passed since I had been initially suh, that it was a dungeon I had delved in and cleared alo, so I couldn’t remember the finer details of its structure

Even so, if I walked around for a week or so then I would ht now, relying on the blurryto the Boss Roo the Goblins and Garms that showed up sporadically, we advanced further and further into the cave system
