111 – 112. Subjugating the Queen Siren (1)
A night when the full moon rose high in the sky
The warriors of Athena’s guild entered the dungeon without any fear.
“──! Three sirens ahead.”
“Many other monsters have been detected.”
Monsters have multiplied again in a few days.
If it was just the two of us with Minerva like before, it might have been a little annoying, but
“Subjugation complete, continue.”
Now, unlike before, a large raid party is moving.
It was just a bunch of trash mobs blocking the way.
Thanks to that, by the time everyone was able to safely enter the dungeon, Minerva sneaked up to me and asked.
“Chrono, all the baggage you carry on your back…”
“There is a time to write it all down.”
“………”
It really has everything in it.
From noble mtl dot com.
To the extent that it feels a little uncomfortable to move around while carrying it on your back.
It was helpful in many ways to be in the back row for the sake of playing, and to receive Sparta training from Teacher Evie at the academy.
‘They said that in the end, the only thing they can trust is their own bodies’
How far are they penetrating?
Anyway, I brought it because I had a place to use it, so I sent Minerva forward, saying don’t worry about it.
“First of all, you’re a face madam. You should lead the way.”
“…I thought so even if you didn’t say anything.”
Slightly angry, stinging reaction
Minerva went straight to the battle lines and followed the signs we had carved before arriving at the Jun Boss Room.
“To be able to arrive without losing sight even once…”
“As expected, Lady Minerva!”
“The goddess of the battlefield is with us!”
The Jun Boss Room arrived less than an hour after we moved forward.
Actually, the dungeon itself is full of time-consuming things such as searching, reconnaissance, subjugation, and so on.
However, if you walk forward without any hesitation and reach the boss room, your morale will inevitably rise.
‘Because that means less tiring work.’
I also applauded along with everyone.
“…….Whoa…”
“…What can I do?”
Looking at me for a moment and letting out a long sigh.
Actually, I was only able to find it thanks to the ‘mark’ I had carved in the past, but the situation was too bad to reveal it.
What can I do?
Since my morale has improved, I have no choice but to keep pushing.
“From now on, we will take a rest and personal maintenance time for 10 minutes. After that——use the ‘key’ that Lady Minerva found to enter this room. Got it!”
“Yeah? That’s… Uh, haaa…!”
Natural exploitation takes place again
Minerva glanced at the person in charge next to her and gnashed her teeth before finally lowering her head.
It’s too late now
If you step back, morale will only drop and the atmosphere will be dimmed.
The only benefit I would get from correcting it in the first place would be that I would feel a little better, but the resulting disadvantage would be too great.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Chrono. I…If only I had a little more strength…”
Eventually Minerva came up to me during maintenance and bowed her head.
“It’s okay. You didn’t do it part way to f*ck me, did you?”
I waved my hand and moved on.
Honestly, after experiencing the things I read in text and skimmed through, I was a bit nervous, but what can I do?
It’s all for a happy end.
I’ll have to endure this much for the sake of the true ending.
“…I’ll definitely pay you back later.”
“Oh. How are you going to make amends?”
Minerva’s Apple
Of course, I know it’s a cliché, but I don’t know what else. How are you going to compensate?
“Yes? Is it…Money…?”
“Without money for a guitar string?”
“…Honor?”
“I’m being robbed right now?”
“…………”
“Clutter!”
It’s fun
The increasingly troubled expression is very interesting.
“…Mr. Chrono”
“Why. Anything else?”
After much thought, Minerva opens her mouth.
“Actually, for me, the only thing I can say I have… Is my body.”
“So? Would you give me your body?”
Yeah, that makes my mouth drool——
“Yes”
“…Uh”
──Gashinu…
Gee, let’s not rush to death at the words that make us laugh.
I poke Minerva lightly in the side.
“I’m just kidding, so don’t be unnecessarily serious.”
“Ugh!…Isn’t that a joke?”
“Because I’m not joking? Can’t you see the eyes of the people around you right now?”
“……Ah”
No matter how long it is for maintenance, it is a situation that will draw attention to some extent.
Thanks to that, several guild members who have finished grasping the situation are looking at Minerva and me alternately with strange eyes.
Is that really ‘the young lady dating…?’ Is it the eyes
Otherwise…
‘I noticed that it was actually me who made the ball’
Actually, whatever it was was fine.
Because their reactions aren’t that important in the first place.
I just need to take good care of ‘heroine’.
“Ugh…Ugh…!”
“It’s about time. Let’s stop here and go forward.”
I pushed Minerva, who was about to die halfway through shame, and sent her forward.
“The rest is over.”
The guild members slowly rose from their seats.
“Then, everyone, the operation to subjugate the Queen Siren begins.”
***********
Siren’s Secret Scale
As I brought it to the center of the door, I heard the sound of the lock being unlocked.
A door covered in coral and seaweed
As it slowly opens to both sides, what you see is…
“Looks like it’s starting soon”
… Only a few scout sirens.
Originally, there should have been a Jun-Boss here, but now it’s Queen Siren’s spawning time.
There was a high probability that all of them would be in the queen’s room——Ah, damn it!
‘I forgot…’
If you think about it, you should have caught the boss you gave here and penetrated the boss room.
This event was strangely twisted, and in the end it seemed like I had to break through to the boss room with my bare body.
“It’s bothering me…”
No, rather, did it work out for me?
Originally, you would only accept the existence of Queen Siren after breaking through the boss room, but as a result of several coincidences, the event started before going to the boss room.
What happens as a result?
“It’s going sideways! Block it!”
“Take care of the aggro management!”
“Kuh… Healer! What are you doing without using Heal!”
“Easy, easy”
Blowing your nose without touching your hands
Although there is some experience damage…
‘It was good to go through the dungeon with Minerva’
In the first place, the necessary experience points had been restored to some extent.
At least enough experience to not have to go through dungeons unreasonably this year.
Of course, the number of skills that can be unlocked increases as much as there are many, so I can participate in the hunt as well, but…
“Kuh… Everyone be careful! As it’s the Queen’s spawning day, they attack more ferociously than usual!”
“Kwaaagh ….! You bastard, I put a knife in her stomach, but I bit her and attacked her!”
“Cheer up!
I didn’t want to put my body into that bloody battlefield.
I just quietly waited for the Athena Guild to take care of things.
And
─Taaang!
“Ah…!”
“I knew it would be like this”
You mean there’s one or two kids who want to hit you in the back when you see them?
I carved ‘fair and fair’ into my body so that the sirens who were about to ambush the back row would never be ambush again.
“Sa…Save me…!”
“Yes no.”
─Taaang!
The tuition was their life.
…
..
.
Is the Athena Guild still a large guild?
There were a few minor injuries, but no major problems.
Even with the quick action of the healers, it would be nice to reach the boss room without any significant power loss–
“All stopped. We camp here for the day.”
More than human beings, rest is necessary.
Although it was not a safe zone, that part can be solved by setting up a vigil.
“Mr. Chrono…”
“Where’s Minerva from?”
Minerva has always been in the front line.
Minerva, who did not show a hard side in front of others, lost her expression as soon as I entered her eyes.
Looks like you’re very tired
No, as if she was actually very tired, her eyes were half-closed, and she looked tired overall.
“It’s a bit… Strange. It wasn’t this hard when I was with Chrono-san before…”
“It’s because he’s in charge of a major role.”
“… Mr. Chrono.”
I am also aware of how I am being treated.
“Well, as Mr. Chrono said, it means something like a mascot, right? The reason for being here.”
“Aren’t you underestimating yourself too much?”
“Because I didn’t actually do anything.”
“….sh*t”
That’s literally it
Minerva didn’t do much here.
It must have been more difficult for me to come to the dungeon alone.
Nevertheless, Minerva is complaining that this position is more difficult and uncomfortable.
“Why is that…I think it’s more comfortable when I’m alone with Mr. Chrono.”
“Minerva.”
My eyes are strangely moist
Toward Minerva, I said.
“You’re being ‘charmed’ by the Siren right now.”
“Yes…?”
“So it’s hard because you’re under mental attack.”
“…………”
Looks like what that means
There is nothing strange about it.
“Didn’t I keep getting rid of the stress when the two of you came before? I also removed the debuff. So it was fine then, but now it’s because you’re enduring it with just your body.”
“Ah…Is that so?”
“Yeah. That’s it.”
That’s why you shouldn’t make strange misunderstandings.
I tried to soothe Minerva,
“Mr. Chrono”
“Why”
“Is that part of it?”
“………..”
Unexpected, unexpected questions
“Don’t worry, Mr. Chrono.”
Minerva didn’t listen to my answer.
“I have no intention of doing anything more unless Mr. Chrono wants it first.”
“Um…..”
Factual Confession Unreasonable Sentences
As the days go by, you become more sincere and sincere, in a word that comes face-to-face
From noble mtl dot com.
“…….Yes”
My heart was pounding.
I shouldn’t be like this, even though I know it’s not possible
I slowly put my hand on my heart and pressed it.
As an aside
[Huh…Huh, Huh…!]
“……Hmm”
The sound of flesh colliding with flesh
A sound that should never be heard on the battlefield where blood and flesh are splashed was caught in my ears.
‘Perhaps…Right?’
Honestly, I wish it wasn’t, but it was more likely that I was right.
I held my breath and walked in the direction of the whisper…
“Cheap…Everything…!!”
“Kyaaa…&”
“Huh”
What is suspiciously energetic fish meal?
There are already signs of one or two cracks.
