82-Art. 82. The Miracle of Monks...





I returned to the inn once from the guild.

It is convenient to have a room close by.

Now that Prine and I have become famous, we don't want to stay in a crowded place for too long.


We sat side by side on the sofa and spread out the status sheet that I had received immediately after my new job.

Thanks to the change of occupation to a magician, my MP has increased dramatically. Prine's MP is 166, so I have more MP than her. This is the benefit of the huge increase in my plain level.

Prine is looking at my seat. Our bodies are snuggled up to each other.

Wow! Ra-kun MP is amazing! That's great!
'I guess it's all thanks to your skills!

Prine looks up at me with her arms around me and asks.

'What are you going to do today? Do you want to get your gear ready? Do you want to go dungeon diving?''
'Hmmm. What do you think of Prine's weapons and armor? Is it still good?''
'Yes! The armor maker said that the Owl's Staff will increase the magic power and the Nekogami-sama's Coat can be used up to the 30th layer!
'Well . What's under that ...... coat?'
'Under the coat is only ...... underwear,......'

Prine responds to my question in a shy, fidgety manner.
No, it is not that Prine is a slut. She is dressed as close to a slut as possible, though.

Her underwear is not just that. It is a great protective suit of armor, better than the vestments I wear.

The name of it is "Angel's Underwear [Superior Featherlight].

It has a very small area of cloth, but its defensive power is three times that of my equipment, and it even improves my speed remarkably.

It's called a divine blessing.

The Lord must be a pervert.

Prine adds.

'This one can be used up to the 30th layer ...... and it's very light ....... The shoulder is ....... So I thought it would be better to keep it like this for a little while longer......'.

Prine's gesture of placing her hands on her shoulders seemed to hide her breasts.
She seemed to have a problem that I, a man, could not understand.

I nodded.

I nodded. I think I can do the same with my initial equipment. The tuxedo I bought with your coat has better defense, and even a monk can wear it, but I've just changed jobs, so I'll just leave it as is.
I want to see Ra in a tuxedo again. Oh, of course, the current one looks great, too. I'm going to enjoy Ra-kun as a monk a lot today!
'It's not a fashion show, though.

Chuckles.

Prine opens her mouth as if she had just remembered.

'By the way, didn't it say in the guild newspaper I bought yesterday that monk's armor would be found down the road?
'Oh, you remember well, Prine.
'Ehem!
'I knew it would come in handy, the guild newspaper. Well, the front page headline was terrible. ......'
'Yeah ......'

We both go dark.

Adventurers who have broken through the 5th level are called "Accelerators" and those who have broken through the 20th level are called "Top Gear" adventurers.

When you become an intermediate level adventurer, you can buy a guild newspaper.

The guild newspaper contains various information brought back by clans that are ahead of you, and it will help you to conquer dungeons. Some people call it a "strategy book". Technically, it is not a book.

By the way, the most advanced clan is the "Yusha" clan. It is a large clan officially supported by the Dungeon Guild.

The guild is supporting the "Brave" clan for the purpose of conquering the dungeon and defeating the evil god Mastima.

The guild newspaper is usually updated once a week, the last one being three days ago.

The two headlines on the front page were as follows


A Rookie of High Expectations! Rana the Clown, together with God's Eyes, defeats the corrupt aristocrats!


The mage industry is in turmoil! What's the secret of Prine's "breasts," the rumored genius mage?


'Idiots'.

I blurted out as I looked at the guild newspaper I had bought. The newspaper was made in large quantities by high-speed automatic writing magic based on the "Mapping" method, and it also contains a sealed image of Prine that was taken by recording magic. The costume is the dress she wore on the show stage.

Although Prine is very pretty on the front page of the newspaper, I was indignant at the composition that emphasized her breasts. What kind of advanced magic is used for something like this?

But Prine was looking more at the image of the clown above her than at herself.



'It's Zofira the monster, Ra! That's cool. ...... That's nice. ......'
'...... okay'.
'Will you come back to rob me again?'

Prine asks mischievously, and I giggle.
Of course, Zofira the monster is me in disguise.

I'm sure she'll be here anytime. If you call her.
'Yes!

I patted Prine's head as she hugged me tightly.

Your face is on the wall now, so you'd better be careful,' she said. Weird people are going to come to us more than ever.
'Yes, that's right. ......'

When we protested to Anna, she seemed surprised and apologized to us. Apparently, she didn't know that Prine and I were going to be featured in the article. I can see why. I guess we are in different departments in the same guild.

'Fortunately, we're supposed to be a pair of "clown and mage", and Prine is dressed differently, so I don't think they'll notice us that much.
'I wear a hood when I'm in a crowded place. If it comes to it, I'll turn invisible and fly!
'All right, all right, good boy.
'Ehehe!
'We still have some consumable items, so we don't need to go to the general store. Well then, let's dive into the dungeon.
Yes!
'Don't forget the information in the guild newspaper I looked at last night.
Aisa!

I kissed the lovely Prine, who replied cheerfully, and we left the room.





Dungeon Layer 16.

When we emerged from the small room to which we had teleported, it was night.

And then..,

'...... tombs, huh?'
'Ugh, I'm scared. ......'

It was a graveyard at night.

It was very eerie, with graves set up here and there and dead trees surrounding them.

A large full moon shone in the night sky. Sometimes, clouds hide the moon and darken the area.

Behind the graveyard, a large building can be seen only in silhouette. From its shape, it looks like a castle.

'Ah, it looks like a graveyard in the backyard of a rotting castle .......
'uu......'

Scared Prine clings to my arm. Her breasts are very soft.

I said, looking straight ahead.

Prine was right. No, you're right. You can even tell fortunes!
'Huh?'
'See?

He points to the front.
The tomb beyond that moved with a clunk. A black shadow slowly crawled out from under it.

'Kyaaaahhhhhh!

Prine screamed.

'Ghost! Ghostly ghostly ghostly! Rah-kun, there's a ghost!

She's crying.

I nodded very calmly.

'Well, it's a dungeon.
It's a ghost, Ra-kun!
'You've seen it in the pyramids. Mummies.
'Ghost! Oh no!
'I know it's just like a monster. ....... I mean, that's not a ghost, it's a monster.
'Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

While I was explaining the situation, the tombs moved one after another, and a large number of black shadows appeared.

The moonlight illuminated them.

Rotting skin, exposed bones, eyeballs missing, and hollowed-out eye sockets were visible.

Zombies.

--www... .............
--Uh-oh... .............

It slowly approaches you, groaning.

'Kyaaaah! Noooooooo! Don't come here!

Prine holds my arm and waves her owl wand. She's so cute with her pouty little back.

'That's why, Prine. She says she's a monster. They're not ghosts.
'What's the difference?
'Ghosts are dead people who have become ghosts or come back to life, aren't they? They are monsters from the start. Dead people don't move. They're like slime. That's why they're not scary.

Well, if a dead person moves, I guess that's a monster, too.

But but but but!
It's just a little creepy. So, reap what you can with your magic. A single photon ray will do the trick, won't it?
'Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Prine looks at me, crying.
Oh, I can't. She's losing her will to fight.

'...... okay. I'll do it.


'Ra-kun!
'Well, you read my fortune for me. --I'm glad I became a monk.

I mean, you knew last night that zombies were going to show up in the horoscope. Well, whatever.

Prine. Fly back and wait for me.
Yes, yes!

I made sure that Prine was afloat, and I looked at the zombies that were rushing toward me.

Naturally, my body adopted a prayerful posture.

God bless you all.

The tin cane that struck the earth, shh! It rang.

One of the zombies reaches out to grab me, and I easily evade his hand and place my hand on his chest.

It wasn't a martial art. It is not chi that I release. Because I am a monk now.

I chant.

'- A miracle of God is here. Heal.

A warm light was born in the palm of my hand. This magic heals wounds, but damages the undead.

--Ohhhhhh... ......

With a final, almost peaceful cry, the zombie's body collapses and turns to mist.

God's salvation for those who still wander around suffering in death.

--No, I mean, "even in death," though that's why they're not dead. Well, let's not dwell on the details.

I nodded my head, confirming that the Heal had worked on the zombies.

'I knew it would work.
''--Ra-kun, that's amazing!

I heard Prine's praise from afar. No, it's pretty far away. Much farther than usual. How scared is that guy?

Now, if we can find out that the heal works...

More zombies came closer, and I smashed them with my tin cane without casting a spell. Popping heads. Splattering encephalopathy. Monsters returning as mist.

The monstrous power of plain level 196 slaughtered the zombies. In the back, Prine screamed.

You don't use magic!
'Raise the level and hit them with physicals.'
'Is that the word of a clergyman?
'Receive the grateful fist of God--yes, I mean, the Monk's Divine Fist.
'I'm just punching you, aren't I!

Prine's voice is getting louder and louder. That's good. She's getting used to it.

Ha!

Boom!

'Hiya!

Bleep!

Boka baka boko boko!

I know I said "Monk Shinken", but in reality, I hate touching zombies, so I just keep on bludgeoning them to death with my tin cane, which is my initial equipment.

The long staff is supposed to apply the warrior's skill "spear art" to it. The tin cane moves like a limb. I'm glad I raised my warrior level.

With each swing, I blasted away three or four zombies at once, and in no time at all I had destroyed all the zombies. I dived out of the air to catch Prine who was hugging me, and while dancing, I broke through the graveyard.

Our goal is that spooky castle beyond the graveyard.

What in the world is waiting for us?
