　They dive into the second level, where they see the party from earlier again.

　They were fighting with a giant red toad.

　A man who seemed to be the leader wielded a sword, a woman who seemed to be a wizard cast a "thunderbolt" spell, and a man who seemed to be a monk gave blessings to his companions.

　The boy, as usual, is sent to carry the luggage.

"Yuri!　Bring the axe!"

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

　When the leader says so, he brings the axe in the fastest movement.

"Yuri, oil!　We're going to oil it and burn it!"

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

　Yuri takes out oil and pours it on.

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

　It was a very quick and smart move.

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

　His friends seemed to agree,

"You're the best cracker, Yuri," he said.

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

　They laughed and laughed.

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

　Eve saw this and said

"It's a crude laugh, but the boy does seem to be a good supporter, doesn't he?

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

　He commented.

"Are you used to it?　It might be a good idea to recruit him as a squire."

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

　I conclude.

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

　I told Eve inaudibly, "I'm not a squire." I ignored their battle and went underground.

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

　I had no reason to help them, nor did I need to.

　If they continued on their way, they would be able to reach the fifth level without difficulty.

　The question was which of them could get there faster, and which of them could defeat the monster guarding the <> first.

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

　There was no time for unnecessary fighting or meddling.

　We reach the fourth level.

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

　This dungeon was not a difficult path for the demon king, the hero, and the Kobold ninja.

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

　Eve agreed with me when I asked if it would be easy to reach the fifth level.

"It might be somewhat boring for a magician like Master..."

"Not really. I met an interesting boy.

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

"I've been buying that boy since a few minutes ago. Is he really that promising?"

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

"You can't see the bottom. That was a great move, wasn't it?

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

"Yes, it's amazing, but isn't it within the bounds of common sense?"

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

"I don't know. Let's check it out."

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

　I say to the boy.

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

　Because the boy from the party was staggering along.

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

　He doesn't seem to have gotten lost.

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

　He seems to be lagging behind because he is forced to carry the baggage.

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

　He also seemed to have been ordered to pick up firewood, which he did while picking up firewood that had fallen in the dungeon.

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

　He was also reading a book.

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

　He looked like a statue of Sontoku Ninomiya, I thought, but only Toshizo Hijikata knew who Sontoku Ninomiya was.

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

　So, instead, I said to him

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

"Boy, you are working hard.

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

　Hearing these words, Yuri turned to me and bowed his head.

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

　He is a polite boy.

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

"Ah, you're the party people I've seen so many times before.

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

I see a lot of people here. By the way, boy, you are amazing.

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

"What?　What's so great about me?"

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

　He is puzzled.

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

　It seems that he is also unaware of his talent.

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

　Since Eve and the others are also puzzled, I'll take this opportunity to unravel some of his talents.

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

　I invite the boy to tea.

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

　We take a break and I ask Eve to make us some tea.

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

　The boy Yuri..,

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

"It would be bad for me to go with you, and I would be further separated from my friends.

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

　Once there, he is adamant.

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

Don't worry, your friends are having lunch about 500 meters away. Your resting here won't make a difference.

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

　The boy's stomach growled as he magically projected the scene as proof.

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

　Seeing his friends eating made him hungry.

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

　Eve smiles and takes a cookie from her pack.

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

　The sweet aroma of butter and sugar spreads, stimulating the boy's appetite.

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

　Unable to resist the allure of Eve's pastry, he turns increasingly flushed,

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

"...... please allow me to accompany you."

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

　I said.

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

"It's good to be honest."

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

　I said, and ordered Hanzo the ninja to carry half of his luggage.

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

　I let him help me lower it to the ground.

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

　Hanzo obeys the order as a matter of course, but the moment he takes hold of the package..,

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

"...... Ugh."

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

　His face contorted and his hips buckled.

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

"What is this weight?

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

　He seems to be surprised.

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

　Jeanne also seemed to be concerned and lifted the baggage, but in her case, she couldn't even lift it.

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

"Well, Demon King, what is this?"

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

"I see that some of them contain ores produced in this dungeon."

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

"Godreve told me that dull ores are often found in this dungeon."

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

　But still," Jeanne says.

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

"This boy was carrying all this weight and moving around like that for support?　...... monster?"

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

　The boy defends himself by saying that he is a human being, but everyone seems to be curious as to where on his slender body he could have such strength.

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

　He seemed to become even more embarrassed when all eyes were on him. I feel sorry for her, so I stop prying and start the tea party.

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

　Eve has already set the table and poured the tea.

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

　The fragrance of the tea spreads.

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

　Tired from the dungeon exploration, we sip it to recover our strength.

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

　The boy seemed to especially like the cookies that Eve had prepared, and he said with a tearful face, "I've never eaten such delicious food before.

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

　He was quite a cute boy.

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

　I wanted to have a cup of tea with him and listen to his story, but Jeanne asked me before that.

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

"The Demon King is amazing. How does he always see the talent in people?"

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

　He lied that it was a necessary skill for a king, but he was confident in his powers of observation.

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

　The boy's large backpack, which swelled with each step of the hierarchy, sometimes spilled bits of dull ore from it.

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

　Above all, the boy had a good look.

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

　The faces of his companions were instantly forgettable, but the boy's face was instantly recognizable.

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

　He was going to be a big shot. I knew it from the moment I met him.

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

　When Eve heard this, she jokingly said

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

"Would you like to be a child?"

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

　He laughed.

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

　When I jokingly replied that I had no taste for such things and that I had my hands full with the saint and the head maid, laughter spread throughout the dungeon.
