The Hero Group Bravers

――『Yomotsu Hirasaka』, a branch realm attached to the labyrinth of Perforation Realm, 『YGGDRASILL』――

――The『third』 stratum, 『charted』 domain――

「Sei, haa!」

The goblin fighter, its shield altogether, was blown away by the blow of the『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』 that was swung with a roar.

In the domain within the map under the control of the academy, it was a battle against the guardian of the realm gate (Gatekeeper) of the third stratum.

The third stratum which was said to be the barrier for post-beginners.

The monsters that had been acting alone formed a pack and attacked them as a party, just like them.

As if it was only a matter of course, in the following stratums things would turn into PVP, party versus party battles.

Even if they were superior in quality, the violence of quantity could easily overturn the situation.

「Uooooryaaah!」

The ax 『Hunting Raburius』, swung from right to left and left to right, bisected the goblins as if it were mowing the grass.

The physical strength that allowed him to freely wield the heavy object, a lump of steel, was proof that Takeshi had mastered the ability of『Fighter』.

「You’re so annoying, you bastards!」

Even if the goblins that swarmed in like a group of clouds were opponents that could be cut down with a single swing of the ax, they still shaved off his stamina.

「It is true that goblins are now small fry. But this is just too much…..」

Holding a leather-bound hardcover book in his hands, Kotarou’s face twisted.

The『Blue Grimoire (Ocean Word)』, obtained from a treasure chest, was a rare magic item that allowed the user to freely manipulate water when in an excited state.

Even though the SP consumption required to activate it being low was the trait of a grimoire item, he was still overwhelmed by the number of goblins that were incessantly surging one after another.

The goblins that broke through the swirling stream were pierced by a warped curved sword.

「I can at least act as a guard!」

Although they were inferior to the pure combat class, the『Pirate』, a rare class of『Thief』 branching, also had combat skills.

Not to mention that Sena, who was riding the superior field correction effect of the water field, was also a force to be reckoned with.

「I’m, at my limit already.」

Shiho, who had summoned a Kobold from a monster card and had it fight, fell to her knees.

After accumulating experience and raising its level, the Kobold was able to fight even goblins.

However, they were as expected outnumbered, and the summoned Kobold was annihilated and returned to the card.

「I’m sorry… Looks like, I’m at my limit, too.」

Yayoi, who was fighting in the orthodox『Fighter』 style with a sword and shield in each hand, was also close to collapsing, as she was at the limits of her endurance due to blood loss.

In particular, her left leg, which had been deeply cut open, was stained red.

Getting inflicted with damage to the flesh meant either that you had received a critical hit that penetrated the SP barrier, or indicated a state where the SP itself was close to drying up.

Even so, the self-strengthening skill of『Fighter』, 『Enhance』, was a psychoactive-type skill that suppressed the fear and pain and aroused the fighting spirit.

It was the skill that was the reason why the academy recommended Fighter, as it was the skill that enabled ordinary folks to be of use on the battlefield.

The other members of the party, who although imperfect were turning into first class, Mii, Nanami, Rio, and Yume, were already lying on the floor.

The reason why none of them had died and returned to Rashomon was because they had simply passed out due to using up all their SP in the never-ending battle against the small fry monsters called goblin.

The commanded goblin army was driven to the still ongoing battle rather than to killing and raping.

They, the members of the『Valorous Ones (Braves)』, were conquering the dungeon with a larger party than the recommended number, prioritizing survival and safety.

Although their EXP earning in one dungeon dive was low, they were raising their levels more steadily than the other students as they were subjected to no reset due to returning from death.

The seven girls belonged to the group, if they excluded Mai and Shizuka, were the prominent top-ranked group in the first year third group.

The rest of the girls had been recruited into the『No Figures (Nameless)』 club created by the boys in the class, so everyone’s standing could be said to have been set already.

「Kuh, so this is the third stratum’s guardian of the realm gate (gatekeeper) that is called the trial, huh….」

The『Hero』 Kazuto, who served as their leader, grasped the 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』 tightly.

The guardian of the realm gate (gatekeeper) was a Goblin Summoner.

Faced with the human wave tactic of the goblins that were continuously being summoned, their party had already broken down.

Although he had managed to barely defeat the goblin fighters, the traditional followers, the goblins gushing forth from the magic circle beneath their feet formed a wall that prevented him from even drawing near to the boss.

As long as his weapon was within reach, he had the confidence that he could bury the puny, most likely rear-guard type goblin summoner with a single blow.

「Now that things have come to this, looks like I have no choice but to use my trump card.」

「Hey, if you have such a thing, use it from the start!」

Without responding to the retort of Sena, who was desperately dodging the goblin’s attack, Kazuto struck the 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』 to the floor and made the goblins falter, before then using that opening to step back from the front line.

In addition to being a sharp and sturdy halberd, the Kobold King’s drop item, the False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear), was imbued with the special ability to generate sound at will.

For a magic item of the highest grade, this ability was somewhat, no, it was one that ended up making it classified as a joke weapon.

That was a『Named Vessel』 granted with『Noise (Rumpel)』, the only skill possessed by Kobold.

It could be used as a non-lethal acoustic weapon, but it was basically a joke weapon.

However, in case it was not a『Named Vessel』 but an『Innate Armament (Origin Gear)』.

It would turn into an unparalleled (Origin) function (gear).

「Lend me your power, everyone!」

Raising the weapon in his hand, he unleashed his skills as a『Hero』.

The『Hero』, known as a representative of the out of standard (Irregular) class, was a class that granted an exceedingly almighty physical correction.

There were neither weak points nor strong points.

There was nothing off the carts among the abilities that were equally enhanced.

This almightiness was related to the『Hero』 skill.

「Ugh….」

「Kyaa!」

「U, ah.」

「Th, this is….」

In the middle of the battle against the goblins, the party members were suddenly out of strength and collapsed.

The skill that Kazuto used, 『Assistance (Charity)』, was a skill that collected SP from party members.

Party members neither needed to offer it themselves nor needed to agree to it nor were able to reject it.

It was exactly assistance in itself.

It was a skill that made others offer their devotion.

It was one of the transcendent (over) skills that was counted among the seven heavenly virtues.

It was considered a forbidden skill along with its counterpart, the seven deadly sins.

Yayoi’s body, slumped on the floor, was reduced to nothingness, like a crumbling outline.

The girl group, who had first run out of SP and lost consciousness, all did, and the last one remaining was Kotarou, who was crawling on the floor.

「Don’t, tell me… up, until now… you have, also… us….」

The party members whose even their SP, which served to maintain their life activities, was collected were all repatriated to the present realm through Rashomon.

Kazuto, who although temporary housed SP that exceeded his current capacity, raised a war cry as he remained holding up the 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』.

「Oo, ooooooh!!」

The 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstilgear)』, radiating light to the point of dazzling, vanished from Kazuto’s hands.

「Carrying on everyone’s thoughts, I’m going to defeat you!」

Kazuto broke into the crowd of summoned goblins with『Dash』 and unleashed『Bash』 with his brandished fist.

What was offered by the party members through『Assistance (Charity)』 was not limited to only SP.

The skills, attribute value correction, and even the experience all belonged to Kazuto.

The blown away goblins were reduced to crystals in the air, but there were no more newly summoned goblins.

The awakened 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』 had put all sounds in the chamber under its control.

As long as what the Goblin Summoner used to summon goblins was a skill, a trigger word was essential.

If the trigger word couldn’t be put into words, the skill couldn’t be used.

「This is, the eeeeeend!」

Getting even its spine broke and was blown to the air upon receiving a body blow from below upward, the goblin summoner was reduced to a crystal.

Due to the disappearance of the summoner, the remaining summoned goblins also disappeared.

And then, the 『False Silver Halberd (Rumpelstil Gear)』, having its awakening undone, materialized and pierced through the floor under his feet with a thud.

「I’ve done it. Everyone… It’s our victory.」

In the boss room, where there was no one but him, Kazuto was sharing the victory with his comrades, who had『voluntarily chosen to entrust their strength to him』.

In fact, once defeated, it would take some time for the guardian of the realm gate (gatekeeper) to revive.

If they did a dungeon dive another day, they would be able to pass through the realm gate without problems.

The members of the『Valorous Ones (Braves)』 could be said to have already broken through the third stratum.

Kazuto, basking in the afterglow of the victory on his own, was convinced that he himself was justice.
