「CHEST. . . . . . . . . .! ! ! ! !」
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I am going to slam my Durandal right into you when you try jumping at me again. The Rapid Rabbit got sent flying backwards, but this time it did not get up. Instead, it remained on the ground, where it disappeared in a puff of green smoke. If two of my attacks while using 「Overwhelming」 were enough to bring it down, then maybe all I need to be able to defeat it with just one 「Overwhelming」-infused attacks just a few more levels for my Jobs so that my STR stat would increase even further? I just hope that the day when I will be able to do that will come sooner rather than later. In my case, it would not hurt me to become even stronger than I already am as fast as possible.
「Master, if I may ask. . . . . . . . that thing that you shouted before dealing the decisive blow to the Rapid Rabbit. . . . . . . this 「CHEST. . . . . . . .! ! ! ! !」. . . . was that the name of a Skill that you possess? Because I do not remember ever hearing about such a Skill.」
Sherry asked me that questing while she went to the place where the Rapid Rabbit fell, picked up the Rabbit Meat that it left behind and brought it back to me.
「Oh, that? No, no,no, it was nothing like that. It was simply something that I have screamed during the heat of the moment to psych myself up. It is not the name of a Skill.」
「But. . . . . . but it must have been a Skill, because after you shouted it you moved so fast that I was unable to follow your movements with my eyes!」
「It is a Skill called「Overwhelming」. Have you ever heard of it?」
「Hmm. . . . . no, I cannot say that I do. But it just goes to show that you truly have amazing Skills at your disposal, master.」
Now it felt like Sherry has given me an honest compliment that came straight from her soul. My time as her master might have been short thus far, but I can say one thing with absolute confidence: I have never been happier than I am right now, and seeing Sherry looking at me with such genuine respect instead of those ice-cold intellectual eyes of hers is bringing me an unspeakable amount of pleasure, and it is a feeling that is probably not going to be beaten by anything else in the world.
Oh boy, this is bad. I think I might actually get addicted to it if I see any more of it!
「This is not something that I would like to share with other people, so please, whatever you do, make sure you keep that information confidential, okay?」
I am saying that practically every time when I reveal some of my secrets to the girls, so I am sure that they are used to it by now and that they would not go around talking about those things with anyone else even if I did not tell them to do so. However, there is one thing that got me incredibly curious: Sherry said that she knew about the Hero Job and she also knew various legends about this country’s first Emperor, who was the only known individual to wield the Hero’s Job. But if she knew about all of those things, then why did she say that she did not know what kind of Skill 「Overwhelming」 is? Could it be that it is something that the first Emperor was not using? Or maybe that Skill is something that he did not even know he had because he never had to use its incantation? Because it would not be all that strange if he had a weapon or a piece of equipment that granted him 「Chant Omission」.
「Of course, master. And while we are at it, I have to say that Miss Roxanne, who was able to sent the rapid Rabbit flying without using any Skills to do so, was even more amazing!」
Sherry’s respectful eyes turned towards Roxanne while she showered her in praises as well. Is it just me, or is she respecting her more than me for being able to go toe to toe against Rapid Rabbit without any tricks or gimmicks? Well, since I really cannot do anything without my OP weapon and Skills, then this should not be surprising that Sherry would be more captivated by someone who could move like a dodging demigod with just her physical abilities alone. Yeah, it cannot be helped, and I am not salty about it at all, not in the slightest.
I want her to look up to me more!
After defeating the Floor Boss of the seventh floor we could finally proceed to the eighth floor of the Labyrinth of Quratar and begin its exploration in earnest.
「Sherry, do you know what monsters are inhabiting the eighth floor here?」
「Uhm. . . . . I do not know. And to be honest, I do not even know where we are right now.」
「What do you mean you do not know where we are? We are obviously still in the Labyrinth of Quratar.」
「Ahhh, so this is still the Labyrinth of Quratar?」
「Yeah, that is what I have said just now.」
Did Sherry though we have suddenly changed places or what?
「I see. I thought that we might have been someplace else, in a place that has a similar floor and monster layout as the Labyrinth in Quratar, but it is good to know that we are still in Quratar’s Labyrinth.」
「Yeah, that is for certain, but why would you even think that we are actually someplace else?」
「Because we never paid even a single entrance fee at the Quratar Labyrinth’s entrance. Oh, could it be because of master’s Space-Time Magic? Because that would have been a nice explanation for why we did not have to pay even a single coin for entering the Labyrinth here despite being here a few times already.」
Sherry mumbled that to herself. Well, certainly. There is a rule that states that you have to pay a certain amount of Nars every time you want to enter the Labyrinth of Quratar, but we did not need to pay any money for entering at all, and it is all because of my Warp and the ability to teleport ourselves straight inside of the Labyrinth proper that it gives us. But it was precisely because of that why Sherry thought that we were no longer in Quratar’s Labyrinth, but in some different place altogether. If she noticed that by herself without me or Roxanne dropping her any hints, then that has to mean that she really is a genius.
「Do you think that it is bad that we are not paying for entering the Labyrinth like the rest of the people who are using it?」
「No, I do not think like that at all. The only time when we would be legally obliged to pay the entrance fee to the Labyrinth of Quratar is when we would be walking into it through its main gate, but there are no rules that state that we have to pay for being allowed to explore the Labyrinth once already inside of it. As long as we are not using the main entrance to come here, not paying the money for it is the smart thing to do. Or at least that is how I see it.」
So Sherry does not have any objections against us not paying the money for entering the Labyrinth here in Quratar, and moreover, she seems to be encouraging us to keep doing so just as long as we would not need to be entering through its main gate. Good, this is very good indeed.
「As expected of master. You are always so forward-thinking.」
Roxanne also praises me for my ingenuity, but to tell you the truth, I only thought about using Warp to get inside of the Labyrinth without paying because she was the one who initially suggested it.
「So, now that we have that out of the way, what can you tell us about the monsters here on the eighth floor of Quratar’s Labyrinth, Sherry?」
「Ah, yes, of course. If I remember correctly, then the monsters in here should mainly be Needlewoods.」
