　As Roland and the others were restraining the "White Wolf" bandits (Thief) who were lying or cowering on the ground, Jill returned.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On his shoulders, he carried Zain and the "Dragoon Head" on his back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Seeing this, the adventurers of the "Spirit League" cheered.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, wow! Amazing!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Did you finally finish off the 'White Wolf' 'Dragoon Head' user?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jill comes straight to Roland and throws down Zain and the "Dragon's Head".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I've finished off the user of the 'dragon-headed cage hand'.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well done Jill. This will make your search much safer. Thanks to your willingness to take damage in the assault.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jill responded with a fresh smile.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But soon after, her cheeks turned slightly red and she began to fidget.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So, that ...... Mr. Roland."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Now that we've achieved such success, is it time for a potion?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Well, that's right. I did all that work. It's no wonder you're drained of energy (stamina).

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon thinks so and tries to offer the potion he was holding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But Roland did not miss it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jill's upward glance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The sneering expectation lurking behind those eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a gesture she made when she expected to be bullied.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'What are you talking about, Jill?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I told you to increase the equipment's fit rate," he said. You haven't achieved your goal at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, u...... it's ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(...... No, you're the one who told me to take the equipment off.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon plunged into his mind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Come on, I don't have time to dawdle. We don't have much time before we have to encounter the "Giant Fire Dragon (Gran Fafnir). Get your gear on now and resume your search.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jill shivered and hurriedly re-equipped her sword and shield and moved on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey, Roland," she said. I think that was a little bit too much.　For all the trouble you went to to finish off the "dragon-headed cage handler"," he said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure. I think so, too. But it's okay for Jill to be that way. She loves unreasonable demands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh. Oh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come on, Leon. I'll advance the unit. Pay attention to the condition of each member of the team and follow each other's lead so as not to overburden the team as much as possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon held his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know!　Jill's supervision is all yours, Roland, you do all the work!　I'm going crazy."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After that, Roland and his team proceeded to explore the dungeon and two days passed, but they were not attacked by the "White Wolf".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Were they hit by Jill's attack, or had they reached a dead end with the capture of the "Dragoon?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In any case, if they continue at this pace, they will be able to scatter the pursuit of the "White Wolf".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(If "White Wolf" doesn't attack us, then it's a good chance for us to advance our cultivation.)

　Returning from her reconnaissance, Liz joined the main group with dizzy, unsteady steps.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't do it anymore," she said. I can't move my legs. I can't. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you talking about? Don't be so timid. Come on, hurry up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Alice rushes the dizzy Liz mercilessly.

I didn't mean it!

Hey, Liz, how's it going?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?　Mr. Roland?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz realized that Roland was there and hurriedly straightened her back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Hmmm. Looking at your status, it's growing nicely."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Really?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz is surprised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I didn't feel like I was growing at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh," she said. I'm almost to the "A" level. Good luck.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ha, yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Okay. (All right, Mr. Roland says so. Let's do our best one more time.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Liz is completely reinvigorated and starts running again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland called out to the other adventurers who were also adjusting to the new situation to boost their morale.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Well, that's it for the adventurers who are adjusting. The problem is ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland looks over at Carla.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She had been consistently lackluster throughout this dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And her gaze is always on Jill.

(Carla is no doubt upset by Jill's strength. After all, when it comes to the possibility that the "Giant Fire Dragon (Gran Fafnir)" may be defeated, I wonder if her feelings are not keeping up with her.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After that discussion with Carla, Roland joined her in researching the "dragon burial ritual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We were able to get a rough idea of the ritual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　1. Defeat the most powerful fire dragon (Fafnir) in the dungeon, i.e., the "Grand Fafnir," and throw its body parts into the crater and offer them to the mountain god.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　2. Dance a special dance called the "Dance of the Dragon's Burial".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　3、Take the dragon nucleus back to the town and dedicate it to the shrine (or after it is certified as rank at the quest reception desk).

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is the outline of the "Dragon Burial Ritual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For 1 and 3, it is enough to do it as it is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The problem is the second part, "The Dance of the Dragon's Burial.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland and Carla searched through old documents, but could not find any details about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is true that this dance was passed down to Carla's father's generation, but her parents had already passed away when she was very young.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(After all, we had come this far without knowing anything about the "Dragon Burial Dance. What do we do now?　(At this rate, Carla could be a liability.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Not only that, he might change his attitude in some way and become an enemy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland shook his head.

(No, don't hesitate. All I can do is to improve her skill-status.)

Carla!　Look out!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla huffed in response to the sharp voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A rock that seemed to have been released by the monster was close at hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Normally, she would have easily dodged the attack, but due to her lack of attention and poor status, she was unable to dodge it and took a hard blow to the head.

　Someone approaches, calling out to them.

　Carla felt her eyes go completely dark.

　In her hazy consciousness, Carla could not tell whether she was awake or asleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The image of her father, carrying a sword on his back, going out to the "volcano dungeon" every day.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Every day, she and her mother stood at the entrance to see him off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is not certain how old Carla and her mother were when they began this ritual of seeing him off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, the earliest memory she remembers is of seeing her father off at the front door of the house as he headed for the volcano.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, this memory of sending my father off was Carla's original experience.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Go ahead, dear."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh. I'm going to hunt the strongest Fafnir today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With that, my father broke into a smile and went off as usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To be honest, I don't remember exactly what my father's face looked like.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I just remember that he had a very large palm that stroked my head, and the squishy smile he showed me as he looked back at me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Gradually, however, my father's smile began to fade.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By the time Carla had grown old enough to remember, she had already seen her parents discussing with a serious look on their faces.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Carla secretly listens carefully, she can hear what they are talking about.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Fafnir" is becoming more and more powerful every year.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The number of adventurers coming from outside the dungeon has been increasing year by year, and the competition in the dungeon has been lagging behind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Among their competitors, the "dragon burial clans" are going out of business one after another.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　More and more local adventurers have joined the ranks of bandits or found their way into alliances with outsiders.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The number of organizations that support us is dwindling, and it is getting harder and harder to keep up financially.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Father, if you are having so much trouble with Fafnir, how about I help you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Carla said this, her father smiled wryly and patted her on the head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Don't worry about it. I'm sure my father can handle a 'fire dragon (Fafnir)' with his power. Well, but you're right. When Carla grows up, I'll have her learn the "Dragon Burial Dance" and help her father with his work.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But that promise was never fulfilled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　One day, my father did not return.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　According to the testimony of the adventurer who had accompanied him, he chased after a large "fire dragon (Fafnir)" in a "volcano dungeon" without hearing the orders of his companions.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was caught in a pyroclastic flow that occurred at the wrong time and was buried.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, the body could not be recovered.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My father returned to the mountain.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is what my mother said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She also said that it was a proud moment for her as a man born into the "Dragon Burial Clan.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My mother eventually died as if following in my father's footsteps due to the hardships she had endured up to that point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla was sent to live with relatives.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After that, Carla joined the local adventurers' guild.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Father. Mother. I'll take over. As a descendant of the Dragon Burial Clan, I will surely fulfill my role.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla swore at her mother's grave, holding the sword her father had left her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, adventurers continued to arrive from the port.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the dungeon, "Grand Fafnir," a giant fire dragon, appeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was rumored that the "Grand Fafnir" was the most powerful dragon ever seen in the history of the world.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla hated it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She hated adventurers who came from outside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They were shameless, trampling on her father's gravesite without knowing what they were doing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla felt that someone was carrying her on his back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her consciousness awakened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(...... Father?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But he has a skinny back for a father.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(No, it's not. Roland!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Carla. Are you awake?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland calls out to me, turning his head only back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He says, "d*mn. Roland, what the hell are you doing? What are you doing in charge of the troops?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Leon is in charge of the unit. I've decided to concentrate on coordinating Jill.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then you don't have time to carry me on your back. Put me down. Put me down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla tried to jump off Roland's back, but her body was not strong enough to do it properly due to sleepiness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She was too sleep-deprived to do it properly. I'll drop you off when we get there."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Eventually, the "Spirit Alliance" reaches today's encampment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland and Carla sat down together and watched Leon take command.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Are you sure?　Leon is in charge."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh," he said. Leon will soon be the one to take charge of this "Spirit Alliance". I want him to learn how to coordinate with the outside world while he is here. Are you okay with that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was an unlike you move. I would have been able to dodge an attack of that magnitude with ease under normal circumstances. And your status was terrible. You are so distracted that you can't see your surroundings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Just might have been just the thing. I was just about to tell you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Talk?　What ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Soon, we will enter the 'wasteland. And that's where we'll be sorting through it. "And there we will select the members who will challenge "Grand Fafnir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't take you on a quest to defeat Grand Fafnir right now. But I can understand why you are upset."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As commander, I have to make a decision. I have to decide as a commander if it is safe to take you with me. If I take you with me, I need you to grow up one more step."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla squeezed the dirt on the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What do we do now?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I'm going. I have to go."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Jill may be taking down the 'Giant Fire Dragon (Gran Fafnir). Can you keep your cool?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have to see it through one way or another. As a member of the "Dragon Burial Clan". I might even learn something about the "Dragon Burial Dance. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I get it. Okay then, one last test."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland turned to Carla.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm going to ask you to get behind Jill. You're going to have to push your agility to the limit to do that.
