46 – Dungeon Investigation Practice (4)
There is a saying called succulent victory.
A woman’s tears are a weapon, and her opponent is a younger girl.
furthermore…
– I don’t like you! uh… Say no! whoops… But why did you do that to me!!
Lily’s words were very misleading.
“no way… Rev you… ”
Yeriel looks at me with a serious expression.
“… … ”
Arya, who is usually not interested in personal feelings, also sends a cold gaze.
In a way, words that have a nuance like that of tampering with a girl…
I dismissed it in a nutshell.
“I’m sorry, no.”
.
.
.
It wasn’t that difficult to clear up the misunderstanding.
First, we took a break for maintenance.
There was also romance in the game where we had a bonfire and rested.
– Sigh.
Yeriel said, squatting and wiping Lily’s trembling eyes with a handkerchief.
“Lily, you were wrong this time.”
“… yes.”
“Because parties are there to cooperate, and each member has a job to do.”
“… Lily knows… ”
Yeriel smiled and whispered something into Lily’s ear.
“… … ”
Seeing her eyes fluctuate, it was roughly what I expected.
As if to appease a child, ‘Why don’t you go to Rev and apologize first?’
Lily shrugged and pondered.
Still, looking at his face, it seems that he was clearly aware of his mistake.
‘I didn’t even expect it in the first place.’
The opponent is a little boy, so there is no reason to lose strength by fighting a spirit here.
To put it bluntly, Kaeran, who sent such a child to my watch, is the root of all evil.
I got up from my seat, searched for the fragments of the collapsed golem, and stood in front of Lily.
“hand.”
“yes…?”
“Reach out your hand.”
Lily held out her little hand.
– Tub.
I handed her two marbles.
The heart of the golem, that is, the core.
“You can use this as a medium to re-summon.”
“uh? My golems can come back… ?”
momentarily speechless.
“Maybe, you really didn’t know…”
“Lily is a genius, so it’s enough to remake it from scratch… ”
He is definitely a self-proclaimed genius summoner.
Making the core of a golem itself requires alchemy skills and consumes a lot of mana.
It is not for nothing that I entered at a young age.
And I roughly recited the settings of the game that I remembered.
“You don’t need to attach any attachments to your summons. In particular, it is said that spirit-based summoners do not disappear when they die, but return to the spirit world.”
“really…?”
“okay. Most of all, the moment you sign a contract with the summons, they know it all and help you.”
“… … ”
Lily looked away shyly, then spoke softly.
“… go… Thank you.”
-…
“And sorry everyone. Because I’m stubborn… Sorry… ”
It was because of Kaeran that Lily began training dragons in earnest.
It is a fact that is revealed in the second half of ＜Reincarnation Aka＞, but
Kaeran has a Hidden Peace place that can only be reached by riding a dragon, so he only used Lily.
Also, in the end, he kills the dragon and tries to omit the scales, tendons, and essence.
Lily, who has nothing left, asks her to prove her ‘usefulness’ and consumes her life force and uses it as her heel shuttle.
In short, to him, Lily was just…
‘tool.’
that it is only to an extent.
Lily rejoiced as she hugged the golem’s core that I had given her.
“Heh heh. thank god… Relief… ”
It’s like a real child.
‘Anyway, as long as it’s like this, I’ll raise it as a summoner.’
I would never let Kaeran do what he intended.
* * *
Lily, who is in the front row, pulls on Rev’s sleeve and asks.
“Where should I go… ?”
“left.”
“yes!”
And Yeriel, the leader of the party, is this warm-hearted? Looking at the sight, he was asking about his own qualities.
‘me… As a party leader, are you doing well?’
Behavior that undermines the morale of the party or teamwork is obviously a deductible factor in the evaluation.
Lev used Lily, which appeared to be an accidental act, to rather unite the party.
As proof of that, Lily, who had been stubbornly ignoring Rev just a while ago, is obediently obeying his words like a good child.
‘I knew it was going to be like this… ?’
It was a long time ago that Lily’s first golem lost its strength and fell.
And Lev had already picked up the golem’s heart by then.
Act as if it was supposed to be like this.
Yeriel only sighed as to how to evaluate teamwork, but
Now it’s rather flawless.
However, Yeriel felt an unknown emotion.
‘first… saw.’
Rev Denek, the first time I’ve ever seen him talk to other cadets.
I thought maybe I would draw a line and talk to others as if I was talking to myself.
It wasn’t at all.
“Hey, hey. Be careful there.”
“uh… 👌👌👌👌 I almost fell… Thank you.”
He treats Edwin moderately, and accepts Edwin comfortably.
“Aria, how are you?”
“it’s okay. Let’s go.”
“If there is a problem, tell me right away.”
“yes.”
And for Arya, the only healer, she constantly checks her condition and adjusts her pace.
To be honest, it doesn’t look like they’re close to each other, or it doesn’t feel like they’re harmonized with each other.
The way he talks is not so warm and the feeling is outward.
Yet everyone follows him.
I could feel it in a small way right here.
Unbeknownst to him, he sincerely… to act for the team.
And that others allude to it.
Suddenly, a question came to Yeriel.
“But why… It’s not that kind to me… ?”
At Claris Academy, there is no one who dislikes Yeriel, including professors, cadets, and even the staff.
– Yeriel You look good today!
-yes!!
-Thank you for today!
– Impressive girl, come again next time.
Yeriel has always thought that if she treats her with sincerity, she will treat her with sincerity, and she has been so.
In fact, the reason I invited Rev to a party was because I wanted to get to know him a little more.
So I asked for an absurd reason,
He accepted it, so I thought it was definitely an opportunity to get acquainted.
– Set a break time, please.
– Please be advised in advance as the purification level will be measured soon.
They don’t talk about anything other than practice.
‘It’s a little lonely… ‘
Even sparsely referring to him as a senior, and using respectful words, Yeriel was even more confused.
‘After all, did I do something wrong with Rev?’
While Yeriel was looking back on her past, the party reached the center of the dungeon.
“you… It is spacious.”
As Lily admired, it was a huge space with a large ceiling for a cave.
The main tree of the dungeon, that is, where the boss is.
In the center was a huge white crystal stained with black magic.
In this place, once more, the room is divided into three paths.
The purpose of the dungeon investigation practice is not to defeat the boss, but to measure the purification degree of these three places.
Yeriel calmly instructed.
“For boundaries and measurements, I’ll make a pair.”
Of course, I had cleared out all the monsters I saw while coming here, but now it’s a practice with actual combat in mind.
Therefore, the three septic tanks each take one measurement and measure it,
It was the correct practice method recommended by the academy for two people to be on guard at the entrance.
At that time, Rev made an opinion first.
“The Joe I was thinking of… ”
“Lily is alert!”
“for a moment… !”
Even Lily intervened and was about to get confused,
“I… May I stand guard with Rev?”
Yeriel’s true intentions came out without realizing it.
In a situation where only the two of us are left, I wondered if I could ask his sincerity.
* * *
A variable has been created.
Only me and Yeriel remained at the entrance.
The monster that intrudes into the dungeon investigation practice is a Class B named, [Fire Demon].
According to the truth, [Fire Goblin] appears while measuring 3 crystals,
It is defeated by the joint awakening of Edwin and Yeriel, the boundary group.
However, this is the Super Hell ++ difficulty level full of the writer’s sly schemes.
So, according to the plan I made, Aria and I are on a borderline.
And after checking the location of [Fire Demon] with her surveillance magic,
If I go ahead and lose stamina by attacking weaknesses,
Finish with Edwin’s [Sword of Execution] enchanted by Yeriel.
I was going to do this.
‘It doesn’t matter… ‘
It’s a pity that I can’t specify the location in advance, but it’s probably okay since I’m still the boundary line.
Yeriel, who had no clue that such a dangerous event was coming, told me with a friendly expression.
Instead, there was a slight tremor in his voice.
“Thank you, Rev. Please listen to me.”
“Nothing. It’s the party leader’s order.”
“… … ”
Drawing the line hurts me too.
But I can’t help it.
With this turning point, Yeriel will become entangled with Edwin, and she has to grow one step further.
She did not give up and continued the conversation.
“Rev came to the Black Coffin, and I… A lot of good things have happened… ? Communication with the spirit was successful, and we are getting inquiries from the Black House dormitory these days.”
“Good.”
“I know that? When you ask for a dormitory, the cadets talk a lot about you, Rev.”
“Are you talking about me?”
“yes! You said it was a place with a handsome cadet?”
So these days there are a lot of people talking behind the scenes…
“Rev, can I ask you one thing?”
“Say it.”
“Is there something that made me uncomfortable… ?”
“No.”
“then… a little bit for me… ”
-Charang!
At that moment, a status window popped out of my sight.

[Anonymous Feedback: Is this the true story of the fire demon nerf?]
[It is judged that the AI of the flame demon, which is named B-grade and does not fit the nickname of ‘Devil’s ridicule’, is strange, starting with the tank. We will change the gimmick to aim for healers first. Accordingly, everywhere in the dungeon is connected!]
———————————————————
‘……?’
city… foot? Writer Who is this kid?
Things turned unexpectedly.
As usual, Edwin eats aggro. It was the opposite.
Arya is the only healer in our party.
She would have been left alone for the measurements.
‘I must go now.’
No, are you going to be late if you run?
Then I have no choice but to
“It’s a little warm for me too… ”
I looked into Yeriel’s innocent eyes and said.
“Jeriel, close your eyes for a second.”
