Vol 8 Chapter 125 (1/2)
Message
Five days after the Labyrinth crawling commenced, the fifth floor had been safely cleared
The parties that wouldn’t originally have been per about to take out theabout
With the boss having been slain, Alette-san put some of her party members on the fifth floor as lookouts
They stood on standby around the center, and made sure no irrelevant adventurers were to descend down any further
All the members of our party had experienced the Labyrinth at least once
That considered, we decided to take an all-inclusive day off
If it was up to the fifth floor, we’d be able to go and return in a day Because with the bosses gone, and the monster numbers lessened, we’d rarely end up in battle
But if we had to go any further than that, we’d end up staying the night
Our preparations for it were one thing, but before that, it was best we finalized the formation of our party
The nus around us had increased, and the base was full-blown on its way to become a splendid town
And within that were adventurers still living in their tents
Coe the labyrinth Coht, they’re return, and throw their money to the bars and cards and women
Rather than the adventurers risking their lives in the treacherous depths of the Labyrinth, it looked towith the much more money
And in all actuality, those veryrowdy over hoas their prime time for profits
Noas set that it only took a few days for goods to pass to Beiic stones could be seen leaving the base to return to the free city
When the adventurers got the urge to go houards, and return alongside them
And similarly, new adventurers also flowed in from Beim to the base
I looked over the town
“It’s fine and all that it’s becooing to go on like this?”
It was rasp the situation
Perhaps she had got the info fro it to me
“It seehts and soldiers need the right supplies, so they make such bases as well Well, the reason it’s so lively is because they’re all adventurers, perhaps? Why not play around some more yourself, Lyle?”
I looked at her face tiredly
“Gah food To top it all off, women are… I’ll close ood with playing around”
Hearing that, Miranda grinned as she locked her arms under her breasts to emphasize their size
It doth see me
“Well that’s a pity A harlot even toldentle”
I do have some lust inmy feet over
If it can work out withoutout, then all’s ith the world, but in this situation, such a thing will becoe instantly
From the Jewel, the Fourth
『It’s definitely a trap If you go over to that side, Miranda-chan’s just adather inforirl the scariest one?』
The one to oppose that opinion was the Sixth
『Miranda is scary? What do you think you’re talking about? The level she’s out can be called cute to lance at another woman, and she hasn’t laid a hand on him yet And wait, Miranda’sit like that?』
He declared his support of Miranda
There, the Third
『Then I noirl! She even has a convenient Skill』
Using her convenient Skill as the driving force, the Third proposed Clara
The Fourth
『No, let’s support Noveirl after all』
The Fifth
『… How isn’t May number one? 』
The Seventh even…
『A woman worthy of Lyle, who carries royal blood… they’d have to be at least Count Class to even be up for discussion, thank you very much』
I thought
(I’ at this point You’re too held up on that, Seventh)
To Miranda’s enticements, I scoffed
“I won’t fall for such cheap provocations”
Miranda happily
“I see Well good for you But if it’s to the extent of playing around, then I’ll peret serious about it, that is”
To Miranda’s statement, the Sixth
『… If only that girl was as tolerant』
Perhaps recalling his oife, the Sixth spilled some complaints in a tired tone

To aiether three days’ worth of planning, and decided to challenge the Labyrinth
Descend down to the sixth floor, fight the monsters there, and see hoould all work out
Mini Porter’s tuning was finished, so when night came, I transmitted the composition of our members
We finished ourour tea afterwards, I went into announcing the plan, and personnel
It inter, and the inside of the tent was cold
The contents of the cups were letting off steam
Anyways, in the tent lit by the lantern’s light, I looked over everyone, and declared the
“Fro into the Labyrinth for an estimated three days Our main purpose is to confirm the sixth floor If it is deee the boss The members will be Aria, May and Eva on the front line; Noveuard”
The re members were Miranda, Shannon, and Monica
Monica acted quite displeased
“Since we’ve come here, I’ve only ever set foot in the Labyrinth once, if you haven’t noticed?”
I smiled
“Everyone’s about the saard Only me and Clara have done multiple runs”
Miranda also looked displeased, but Shannon clenched her fist in victory under the table
“May I ask why I’m to step out?”
Miranda was s, but her eyes weren’t too pleased
“There’s no deeperto it Mainly to preserve our forces”
There, Monica
“As I thought, you’re preciously saving away your trurief, you could’ve just told me, dammit”
… The reason I didn’t take Monica alone was because whenever she fought, it was hell to recover monster materials and stones from the tattered bodies
A single blow fro a mace in each hand caused the bats to fly off and splat The frogs were crushed into a gooey mess… it was just too pitiable for Clara to collect
If ere fighting a boss, then perhaps it would be best to take her along Other than that, to put it bluntly, she would be in the way
Looking around, I saw Aria wasa bit of a troubled expression

Theof the next day
Taking along the modified Mini Porter, we headed for the entrance to the Labyrinth
It now had baggage hanging off of its side, but it looked much more reliable than last time
It’s just, the atathered party members was somewhat disconnected
(… Aria feels disconnected, or how should I put it, unaccustomed)
She should very well be a veteran, but she felt isolated a the members
No, if I had to be more accurate…
“Hey, Noveo to that stall Now’s fine too”
May was trying to solicit the food from a stall out of Novem
From the Jewel, the Fifth
『May! I told you, you can’t just go around eating everything!』
He raised a worried voice
Eva spoke
“damn, I wanted to stay behind And I’d finally received peret back, come have a listen won’t you, Novem?”
Wanting her to listen to her songs, she called out to Novem
And to the two of them with a smile, Novem
“May-san, let’s eat there once we get back Eva-san, o listen e return”
The three of the too well, that Aria was left out
I looked at Clara
It see some distance between herself and Eva
(… Is she angry Eva stole the etic Eva and quiet Clara… if you asked if they didn’t go together, they don’t, do they)
After co more complicated
I let out a sigh as I called over to Aria
“What’s up? Did you not want to tag along?”
There, Aria averted her eyes from mine
“… There’s no way I could act all buddy-buddy at this point in time Up to now, I kept it at the minimum necessary amount of conversation”
