Chapter 46 (1/2)

CHAPTER 46 – DUNGEON OF RIPPLES・CAPTURE

After finishing our lunch, we immediately start with the capture of the first floor.

「《Light》」

When I turn on the light and peek inside the entrance, there was a culvert-like place. A waterway with flowing water in the center. And a pathway people can walk on both of its sides.

Because it’s a single, straight path we don’t hesitate to advance. I was just concerned on which side of the waterway to walk, but because it was a jumpable distance between both sides, I have decided to walk on the left side for now.

With nothing happening for a while, the waterway split in the shape of T.

「Which way shall we go?」

「「There~」」

「Yosh, left it is」

Allen and Elena pointed to the left simultaneously.

When I inquire which way to go just like I did during the previous dungeon capture, the two point without hesitation.

Left means that we don’t have to jump across the waterway.

As we advance, an obviously poisonous purple frogs with yellow dots jumps out from the water.

E-Rank monster, Poison Frog.

「Allen, Elena. Because this fellow has poison, use magic. I leave the one in front of you in your care. ――《Air Shot》」

To make it easier for Allen and Elena to aim, I clean up all Poison Frogs except the one in front of them with a wind bullet.

「「Ye~s――《Wat~er Ba~ll》」」

They have practiced magic on rocks. Therefore, it’s Allen’s and Elena’s first time shooting a moving target.

Allen and Elena aimed their water b.a.l.l.s straight ahead and shot and the Poison Frogs.

However, because of a slight movement of the Poison Frog, the water b.a.l.l.s missed. Was it truly accidental that the water b.a.l.l.s the two shot landed at the same place?

「「Muu~」」

Allen and Elena make slightly frustrated expressions.

I know I shouldn’t laugh in this situation, but because the two’s expression was so adorable I broke into a smile.

「Cough…… Allen, Elena. Try aiming one more time. You can do it」
