Chapter 18 – Becoming Stronger at the Underground Labyrinth!! Part 8

「Then, with that said, let’s go up.」

「…upstairs? Why?」

Ahh, I nodded.

「From here onwards, it’s the straight line to the deepest floorーthe Guardian.」

「…So… What are you going to do?」

「What is the Guardian?」

「…A dragon zombie. It’s a dead dragon…For it to be killed by a young dragon, it will head to the underworld, passing the baton to the next generation… This is the sacred ceremony.」

「Yeah, that is right. And… the only weapon I have is a knife. So, even if it’s a dead one, do you think I can hunt a dragon? The state of the dragon is probably preserved to be almost as good as when it’s alive, right?」

*FuruFuru* Lilith shook her head left and right.

「…I do think that Lute has become stronger, but as expected, you won’t be able to pierce through a dragon’s scales when you are almost unarmed.」

「That’s why, I’ll go back for now. Besides, whether it’s the large catfish or the armed golem… there is still stuff left unhunted.」

「…Going up and then going down again… really busy. But… the upper floor should be in a  mess because of your arson. Can you really go back up?」

Lilith muttered with an exasperated face after checking the situation above her head.

I affirmed that question.

「The foundation of this labyrinth is entirely made of orichalum. And, the place where the base and the core of the foundation meet is connected by stairs and passages also made of orichalcum. In the first place, the labyrinth was created like that.」

「… Orichalcum. I can understand the concept. Very hard metal.」

「This, and the existence of the homunculus that the dwarves use… those are the key players that make this labyrinth-like unreasonable construction possible.」

「…Well, even so, it must have taken more than a hundred years for this facility to be built. Then, there is someone who did something unreasonable like arson…」

Lilith is looking at me with a quizzical look, but I didn’t flinch and pointed upwards.

「Then, let’s head up? First… let’s go up to the first floor.」

Then, I arrived at the room where the Minotaur fell.

I put my hand on the huge axe lying next to the corpse of the dying Minotaur.

It’s a two-meter-long axe made of a special metal.

It weighs around a hundred kilograms, or maybe two hundred kilograms.

Even when I was still level 1, I could easily carry it around. But if you were to ask if I had enough strength to swing this axe around at the level of a real battle, I wouldn’t be able to.

But my current level is 99.

What’s more, although I have Profession: Villager, thanks to the Dragon King’s protection, my growth rate correction has been raised to the level of advanced occupations such as a Sage.

I put my strength in.

When I swung the axe, a whistling sound could be heard.

ーIt’s good, it’s no different than swinging a stick around.

Swordsmanship skill and martial art skills are activated.

A variety of experiences have been successfully combined to derive the optimal solution for wielding an axe.

Naturally, if I have some kind of battle axe skill, I’ll be better at handling the axe, but if it’s just to survive an emergency… Well, it should be okay.

I swung the axe with one hand like a whirlwind.

If this is the case… maybe I can do that too?

Making up my mind, I left the Minotaur’s room as if it was a lucky day.

ーーOnce, A fifteen-year-old Cordelia used to cut a large rock like butter with her Nakamura sword.

Then, I also headed towards a large boulder lying in the cave.

It’s a large rock with a diameter of about five meters.

Its uneven surface is shaved at a tremendous speed.

「This is amazing… It’s comparable to cutting some butter with a butter knife… I felt no resistance.」

A few minutes later, a stone sphere with a diameter of about three meters was formed in front of me.

There are countless rock fragments around it.

It’s the result of hundreds of slashes that had cut off the rock.

Lilith looked at me speechlessly.

「… When I first handled this axe… I barely managed to swing it around after using a number of physical strengthening techniques.」

Good.

This is good enough.

「Well then, shall we go?」

Lilith answered my call with a question.

「… Where to?」

「For the time being, let’s take revenge on the armed golem.」
