From the forest back to the original cave.
I didn't have to tell them there was a chimera ahead.

Both Lunamaría and Leah immediately felt the swift, swift air coming from the depths of the cave and let go of my arm.

...... That's a lot to roar into the second level!

Nodding at Lunamaría.

"I sense an unusual presence. This may be the right thing to do, making the watermelon. If we fight normally, we will not come out unscathed.

and each of them grabs a potion.

Since there are only three bottles, we can calculate that someone has to guess one.

What about the return shipment?

That's what I'm getting at.

That's what I'm talking about.

But it's true that there is no room for error.

Well, I want to aim and hit the chimera in the face.

And then quickly, that chimera appears in the distance.
He's staring at me from afar.

"It's the eyes. Or maybe it's the smell.

Maybe you're sensing my s*x appeal.

I let out a wry smile. It sure smells good on Leah. It looks like she's wearing perfume.

Perfume is dangerous to wear in dungeons, so I don't want you to stop wearing it, but I don't want you to stop wearing it because "not dressing up for a woman is as good as dying".

Well, I'm sure there are monsters who avoid the unfamiliar smell of perfume, so let's assume it's a plus or minus zero.

Now, as you're having this exchange, the chimera comes close to you.

I can feel the style of a champion in its gait.

"That's a king of beasts.

"And I'm adding a male shell insect, the Scorpion. I'm adding a maniacal bat to the mix. You must be very confident.

Leah replies, but Lunamaria makes a rare joke.

I've been wondering for a while, I know the body of a lion, even the tail of a scorpion, but why the wings of a bat?　There are better looking birds of prey wings like ......

It's true.

Leah laughs.

I let out a laugh.

That's true, but maybe that would be too much like a gryphon.

I see that the ancient sorcerers were also obsessed with originality.

I guess that's what it is.

When I finish, the chimera moves faster.
It seems to have recognized us as bait perfectly.
As I parried the chimera's first blow, I said, "There weren't many large animals on this level to feed on.

There weren't many big animals on this level to feed on this thing. I think it's looking at us like we're moving flesh.

Tradition has it that the saint who once saved the country threw himself off a cliff and shared his flesh with a hungry lion.

"What are you doing here. Do you want us to follow your example?

You can't imitate such a great saint. You can't imitate such a great saint. But I will show you his one-in-ten thousand virtues.

And Lunamaria throws dried meat.
The chimera doesn't even look at it.

...... failure.

Of course. We're obviously better than the dried meat.

Is it true that women's meat is more tender and delicious?

"Well, you know. Most of the animals are better with the females.

And Leah throws a vial.
Thrusting her legs high into the sky, she shows her gorgeous form.

Nryu!　Goddess-style ball No. 33!

I don't know about you, but it seems to be a pitching technique inspired by the otherworldly game of baseball, but despite its ostentatious name and form, its accuracy is poor.

I'm going to be flying in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

...... teppo

And scratch your head and say sorry, Leah.

I don't care, she wasn't counted in the force to begin with.

It should be me or Lunamaria who hits the target.

and regain your composure as you parry the chimera's attack and cast the fireball spell.

The fireball flies straight ahead!

It hits the chimera directly in the face, but instead of bursting into flames, the chimera bites down on the fireball.

You're a ...... monster!

I knew it was right to avoid fighting.
I thought with all my heart that I was going to send a signal to Lunamaría.

The fireball didn't work, but I still thought it created an opening.

Now it was Luna Maria's turn.
She hits me with a great shot.
--It was never going to happen.
Lunamaria's throwing form was clearly lousy.

It's commonly known as the girl's throw, and the potion flies on a wobbly trajectory.



The control was only good as expected, but it was too slow and the chimera avoided effortlessly.

Now you've lost two out of three.

It's a desperate situation, but Lunamaria and Leah were in a good position.

The look on their faces, their cheering, said, "I'll make sure they hit the target.

Good luck, Will-sama!

"Will, you can do it.

It's hard to believe that a miko wasted a precious potion, but I'm not angry.

And moreover, I'm not in despair.
All you have to do is give the potion a direct hit.
I had a skill they didn't.

I had swordsmanship learned from Ronin, god of the sword, and quick thinking from Vandal, god of magic.

I would fling the vial into the air.
The action was so weak that Leah was surprised.

"You'll never reach the chimera with that kind of force.

That's okay.

With that statement, I fire a flash of my sword at the vial in the air.

The sterling silver dagger is drawn from the dagger case at my waist and releases energy.

A line catches the vial and the liquid inside it is released into the air.

What is this?

Answer to an amazed Leah.

"This way we can scatter it widely in the air. If the chimera moves a little bit, it won't matter.

In fact, the liquid, scattered in the air, sprayed directly onto the chimera's face.

The chimera flinches one moment when the liquid is in its eyes, but only briefly.

In the next moment, it sprawls out on the ground with a pouting face.

He was rumbling and purring like a cat.

It looked like a big cat itself, proving Vandal's hypothesis was correct.

"A chimera is still a cat, though it is a chimera.

The Vandals would be delighted to see this sight. But he is not here.

Instead, I often watch the chimera's behavior.

Later I will write a detailed account of this in my journal, and I will tell you about it when I return home.

I'm sure Father Vandal will be pleased.

Thinking of his smile, I felt a little bit of happiness.
