There is a boss monster waiting for you on level 20, the Minotaur.
　A monster with the fangs of a bull-headed man-lion.
　In its hands it holds a huge axe that no human could possibly handle.

　The minotaur silently opens its red eyes and lets out a scream as Agito steps onto the 20th floor.
　The scream echoed through the entire 20th level, which stretched out in a circle around the minotaur.
　Agito could certainly feel the intimidation and murderous atmosphere the minotaur emitted.

''Excellent!　Don't think the bullhead can beat me!

Hey, you can't go out there by yourself!

　Kurt arrived at the 20th level a little later than Agito and yelled out.

'Shut up and watch.

　As if to counter Kurt's statement, Agito accelerated his movement and instantly approached the minotaur.
　And the minotaur blocks the blow with his huge axe.

That axe is no decoration, is it?

　Two blows and three blows, Agito unleashes a series of angry blows from the front so as not to leave an opening for the opponent to counterattack.

But he's only a demon. You have no skills, do you?

　And then a blow strikes the minotaur, which is no longer able to block Agito's attack.
　You want to continue attacking the vital point in his face, but you'll notice something strange.
　But there was almost no response to the attack.

''Agito-san!　Watch out!

The minotaur was swinging his huge axe wide open when the two Red Wolves shouted.

　Agito was right about the minotaur being a monster.
　That's why you shouldn't think of the Minotaur as a person.
　Just because a B-ranked monster has no skills doesn't mean it's weak.

"...

　Agito, judging that he couldn't avoid the Minotaur's attack, used his sword as a shield and tried to defend himself.
　Unable to withstand the attack, Agito was blown away.
　It's exactly what it sounds like: let them cut your flesh and cut your bones. Only a demon would do that.

That's what happens when you don't listen. The amount of magic the minotaur carries is greater than a B-ranked monster on the 19th floor. We're not going to be easy to deal with. We'll have to work together.

"Shut up ...... I'm not losing yet.

　That said, Agito's forehead is bleeding and his arms are also quite sore.
　Even so, Agito still grabbed his sword and wouldn't let go.

　At this moment when Agito is frightened, Fea fires a shot at the minotaur.
　That allowed the minotaur to target Fea rather than the wounded one, instead of pursuing Agito.

"What we need to do is to take out the minotaur immediately. We have your people on the 19th level. You should stop being so stubborn.

　Agito took his words seriously .
　Because he was aware that Kurt was right, he was being boring and stubborn .

'...... So how are you going to help us?'

The minotaur's weak point is the nape of its neck. It has weak magic on its neck. While we're fighting, can you deliver a powerful blow to that weak spot?

　Thinking about it, Kurt wondered if this weakness might have had something to do with the minotaur changing its target to Fea.
　Before the attack from the Fea, the minotaur would have undoubtedly tried to move in pursuit of Agito.
　He decided not to do so and changed his target to Fea because Fea and Agito's position posed a threat to the minotaur.

　Fea was near the entrance to the 20th level, whereas Agito was behind it.
　The Minotaur would be caught between them.
　If they launched a chase at Agito here, the nape of his neck, a weakness, would be exposed against Fea.

　From this fact and the fact that the magic surrounding the nape of her neck was weak, Kurt was convinced that the weak point was definitely the nape of her neck.

Yeah, I'll do it. Yeah, I'll do it. And you do your part too.

Ha, ha, of course.

　Kurt smiled confidently.

　Carina has been an adventurer for three years.
　I've come across the Monster House a few times before, and I've overcome the same predicament a few times .

(But this monster house is an anomaly: ....... I've dived through dungeons in my life and never once have I encountered a monster from another level, or even a lower level for that matter).

　Karina dodges the attacks of the attacking demons and makes sure to kill one of them.
　Karina is an explorer with a talent for searching and fighting.
　The more dexterous she is, the more she tends to neglect combat, but Karina has mastered the ability to become an A-ranked adventurer.

(But what's more unusual than this monster house is the man in front of me - Revell-kun. It's ...... crazy that he can go to the center of the 19th level, where demonic attacks are flying from all directions, all by himself, and fight a decent battle.)

　Karina is at the edge of the 19th level where she can only focus on the enemies from the front.
　That is the correct way to stand against the Monster House.

　On the other hand, Revel's actions are a far cry from resisting.
　It may seem like suicide, but Revell was growing at a frightening rate.
　When attacked, he can cast his own healing spell on the scars, killing the enemy in a single blow.
　Gradually, he adapts to the environment he is in.

　After a while, Revell began to attack with minimal movement.
　Instead of swinging your sword wide, you aim at the enemy's vital points with small, precise strokes.
　This allows you to dodge the enemy's attacks after they have struck.

　As a result, Revell and Karina have killed all the demons on the 19th level.


　There was a large amount of demonic debris lying around Revel.

　Karina had to admit.
　That Revel was stronger than Agito and even herself.

(That growth rate is that of a genius: ....... It's more than just genius . An outstanding genius ......)

　With all his strength, Revell was standing over the wreckage of the demons.


Revell-kun ...... who the hell are you?


　Carina asks that .
　Rivel turns to Carina and replies with a smile.


'What? I'm just a hard worker.
