Vol 8 Chapter 128 (2/2)
“You made a new one?”
Standing there was a separate so entirely
Standing there, was a boat-like Porter Up to now, it was a rectangular box to store baggage, but it had so
Both sides of it even had fin-like h the water Oars as well
And those water propulsion mechanisms were courteously furnished on the other Mini Porters as well
Monica brought both her hands to her hips, stuck out her chest in pride, and raised a high laugh
“Ohohoho, have you witnessed it, Chicken dickwad!? This is Monica’s serious round transport possible, and full capabilities to fulfill a boat’s duty in water, I bring you the new and improved amphibious Mini Porter! Hah, I have no words to describe its lovely form”
Watching Monica embrace Mini Porter no 3, everyone drew back a bit We never expected her to go so far
Clara timidly raised her hand to pose a question
“U?”
There, Monica explained she’d prepared rubber life rings to attach to the other ones
“As long as you don’t overload them, there shouldn’t be a proble!? I’ll roith all ine for these children!”
(Then are those fins things just decorations?)
Looking at the furnishi+ngs on the Mini Porters’ bodies, I ended up thinking that
I looked at Monica and spoke
“Eingeen? What are you talking about? But the eighth floor is also probably going to be filled ater, so what should we do about members…”
When I looked over my party, Eva averted her eyes
“Eva? You…”
Hiding her face with both hands, her ears reddened as she spoke
“I’m sorry I can’t swiood ater…”
Okay, so Eva’s out of the race Shannon was also shaking her head at full force
“No way! Not going to any place with strange frog people! And I can’t swim either!”
I hadn’t been counting on her to start with, but in that case, May and Clara are…
Clara’s face was quite pale
“Eh? Clara?”
“S-sorry I’ve never tried swiet wet, so please let me off”
And I looked at May
“Yes, I can swim No, more so, I can just walk on water… there’s no problem”
I smiled
“Yeah, don’t walk on water I’ you, just keep it normal Don’t try to stand out too much”
There, the Fifth let his voice from the Jewel
『Lyle, May’s norely different from your normal, and you…』
The lecture was a long one, so I’ll omit it
Anyways, by process of elimination, the roster looked like this
Novem
Aria
Miranda
Monica
May
… With those five andwith a party of six
Looking at the ah to carry six IF we loaded the luggage onto the re Mini Porters, there shouldn’t be a problem
Yes, there wasn’t a proble the Labyrinth The proble behind
“Well, six is a good number But will the three of you be fine by yourselves?”
Seeing the re members, I became a little worried
I couldn’t expect much from Shannon, and Clara’s s to hit the town looking for fun
(It’s not like all adventurers are good people, and when I think of what could happen, it’s quite worrisome I don’t want to have to worry about the surface while in the Labyrinth)
As responsible ones, I’d like to leave Novem or Miranda behind, but…
It was there, that Miranda offered a proposal
“It really is worriso May? She’s reliable, and I’m sure she can stay quiet in the short span we’ll be away”
Hearing that, May took a single glance at Nove her eyes on me
I addressed Miranda
“Eh? May? Will that be alright?”
While her small form looked unreliable, May was a Quilin She was reliable as a fighting force, and even if you left her alone, she could e just fine in battle
A fed-up Aria:
“And wait, aren’t Noveht people for the job here? If you don’t want to, I can stay”
I thought
(Aria does perform well in the Labyrinth But on the other hand, if you leave her be, I don’t really think she’s…)
When I lost ht of as unreliable, May raised her voice
“Wait right there, it’s not like the only thing I do is buy and eat, you here If you ask me to protect this place, I can at least do that So fret not, and go Ah, but… leave soo, okay?”
Monica sounded delighted fro
“Yes, I’ll at least leave food for you all And wait, how many days should we expect?”
Inside my head
(No, just go to the food stalls, won’t you? Why is it that she does it at all times but now? Normally, wouldn’t this be the perfect time to do so?)
Parties returning fro themselves to prepare food
It’s not wrong to say the food stalls existed for their sake
I scratched my head as I spoke to everyone
“This tihth floor in our field of vision We’ll be earning with the eighth floor at the center, but I’ its boss The plan is for around five days”
That was taking a day to go and another to return A three day period of scoping out the eighth floor, and beating its boss
The proble suited for underwater battle, but…
(Well, the Second’s Skill and weapon should be able to handle it And it’s about ti one)
Since co but be surprised of our surroundings But as an adventurer, if you didn’t earn money, there wasn’t a point
At the saht a boss of the Labyrinth
To be selected for the next ti force Not just by the guild, but by the surrounding adventurers as well
Novem voiced her approval
“If Lyle-sama says so, then so be it”
Miranda turned her gaze a little towards Novem
“Very well And shall I carry a spear as well? Aria, let me borrow your spare”
Aria to Miranda
“Don’t break it I just had it replaced, and that’s even an easy spear to use”
Monica, with it being her first participation in a while
“Fufufu, just you watch I, Monica, shall once again provefactor in this squadron of A down a drenched chicken with a towel are quite… oh, my drool is…”
With that being the case, this time’s Labyrinth mission was…
Me
Novem
Aria
Miranda
Monica
… The five of us
