When they arrived at the guild, the five of them immediately lined up at the reception desk to form a PT. Seeing the sight of Tsutomu's visit to the guild with his companions, the searchers around them began to pay a bit of attention to him. Among them, Garum, who was wearing an indigo-colored uniform and standing guard at the Black Gate, noticed Tsutomu's group and waved lightly.


''Garum-san!　I'm off!
Shut up.


　Daryl greets Garum loudly, drawing the attention of everyone around him, and Diniel covers his own long ears with his hand, as if to say he's hot and bothered. Tsutomu also let out a wry smile at the loud voice coming into Daryl's ears, and Hannah seemed to be touched by the sight of Garum's hand wave.

　Tsutomu's surging fame and Daryl's shout caused the searchers around them to look at the five of them in a buzz. Daryl seemed to have noticed too much attention and turned his head down in embarrassment. Some of the female explorers and receptionists are holding their noses and looking up, as if they were excited and had a bloody nose.

　And the rest of the clan members looking at the clan members look convincingly at Daryl, who is famous for being trained by Garum, and Diniel, a former golden researcher. But the expressions on their faces as they looked at Hannah and Amira were nothing short of surprising. It was because Hannah was a feather tank and Amira was famous in a bad way as an ally killer.


''Tsk.''


　When Tsutomu turned around at the tongue lashing, Amira was hurriedly covering her mouth. Seeing her panicked state, Tsutomu grabbed Daryl's shoulder.


'It's not that you need to be so careful. It's Daryl's fault right now.''
I'm sorry!


　Daryl apologized, even though he was afraid of Amira's stinging gaze, holding his black tail between his legs. At the sight of the two of them, Amira removed the hand she was holding from her mouth and turned her gaze to the side.


''Well if they expel me from this clan, I'll be kicked out of my old lady's house.
''Uh ... that. But we won't suddenly expel you for a single failure, so please don't worry about that. Unless they don't listen to us at all.
Oh...


　The fact that this is the only way to get rid of the nervousness of the situation is a bit of a relief from Tsutomu's words, but he still seemed to be nervous as if he was on guard. Tsutomu went to the reception desk, checking on the condition of Amira.


Yo. I'm not sure if it's a good idea. Tsutomu.
Yes, sir.


　The skinheaded man at the reception desk handed Tsutomu a piece of paper, but he accepted it. Tsutomu handed out the paper to the others and chewed his own paper and submitted it with his saliva on it.

　In order to search efficiently among the vast number of status cards, the guild's receptionist requires the searchers to submit their bodily fluids. Until now, submitting anything other than blood has been despised as a sign of a weakling who fears pain, and Tsutomu had been ridiculed by other searchers before. But there was no one to mock Tsutomu anymore.

　So the other four imitated Tsutomu and chewed the form before submitting it to the receptionist. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more information on this topic. Tsutomu immediately returns the status card, which has not changed much.

　The level on the status card will not increase unless you defeat the monsters in the dungeon. So even if the tyrannical dragon that had crossed the hundredth level of the blazing old dragon was defeated, the explorer's level did not increase, and Tsutomu's level was in the first half of fifty without that much change.

　Then everyone returned their status cards and the spit-stained paper was thrown into the lantern and burned, and they left the reception desk and entered the magic circle.


''Transfer to the forty-eight level.''


　With Tsutomu's voice, the five of them were transferred to the beach on the forty-eight level. After a moment of floating, Tsutomu lands on his feet and looks around. The sunshine and the emerald green sea greeted Tsutomu, which made him feel a little nostalgic. There are no visible monsters in the area.

　Daryl and Hanna seem motivated enough, and Diniel's eyes are still sleepy. Amira was emitting an air of tenseness.


It's not Hannah, but Diniel. I'd like you to take care of the search for the enemy.''
Yes.


　Since he said beforehand that the clan members would call each other out so that instructions and information transfer could take place smoothly, Tsutomu immediately called Diniel out and asked her to search for the enemy. She nodded at Tsutomu's words and pulled one of the cheap long arrows out of the magic bag on her shoulder.


''Eagle Eye.''


　Using Eagle Eye, a skill that allows him to transfer his own vision to arrows, Diniel shoots arrows in each direction to search for enemies in the area. The presence of an archer makes searching for enemies easier and faster. However, he is weak against obstacles, so the job of adventurer is the best choice for his search capabilities.


Tentacles to the north. West, no. In the south, maybe Encal Lobster. Sea slime and the Arrowfish in the east.
Roger that. Let's head east, then.


　Slimes are the safest of all the monsters on the beach. The slime that inhabits most levels is relatively easy to deal with because it is used to dealing with them. So Tsutomu swapped potions while deciding on a destination to the east.

　Then he handed the potions to everyone and began to march. Daryl will be in charge of the front of the line and the rest of the team will advance in two lines.


'The first battle will be between Daryl and Diniel. You two should observe the battle a couple of times to get a feel for the flow of the battle.
All right!
Oh...


　Hannah hasn't been able to tank well, and Amira has been standing around so badly that the clan has broken up. Therefore, the two of them had yet to experience the normal flow of combat that introduced the three roles.


''Eh?　Tank, am I alone?
'Yes. But slime and arrowfish should be fine.
I'm counting on you.
Really?　Ehehe, I'll do my best.


　Scratching his head as if embarrassed, Daryl walks while crunching and ringing his heavy armor equipment. Since heavy knights have skills to reduce equipment weight, Daryl's equipment is incredibly heavy, but he doesn't seem to be bothered by it.

　The armor Daryl is wearing was made by incorporating a new material called Nensekian, a black ore recently discovered in the volcanic hierarchy. Recently mined as a heat-absorbing ore, it is effective in lowering the body's temperature, which rises with strenuous movement in battle.

　It's a good idea to use other materials such as yelk ore and seashells from this beach, which shell clubs like to add to their shells. Although it is inferior to equipment that comes out of treasure chests, it is a high-level equipment among the equipment that can be made using materials from dungeons.

　While we were talking about this, emerald green spheres began to appear on the beach in front of us. This is a sea slime whose protective color is the color of the sea. When the sea slime with a magical stone drifting in the center of its body saw the five people, it bounced on the ground and approached.

　Slimes are found in almost every level of the hierarchy, and each level has a different nature. The mud slime inhabiting the swamp is slow-moving and viscous, while the slime on the beach is lightly moving and has the elasticity of a rubber ball.

　The sea slime, which creates spring-like tentacles beneath the ground to kick the ground as it moves, is the more mobile of the slimes. You'll have to pay attention to it as it will charge at you with its quick movements and try to attach itself to your body.

　As about four such sea slimes approached, Daryl readied his large shield and slammed it against his own armor.


''Warrior Howl!''


　Daryl used Warrior Howl, a skill that allows him to earn enemy hate (hostility) by beating his own weapons and armor, to distract the four sea slimes. The Warrior Howl works because the slime uses vibrations to probe the enemy's location.


'Protection, Haste.'


　Tsutomu sends protection to Daryl and haste to Diniel to increase his status. Diniel cumbersomely turns the arrow and fires the first shot. The arrow shattered the core of the sea slime with precision, causing a viscous liquid to fall to the ground as if it had lost its support. It then leaked out particles of light and disappeared.


''Shield Throw.''


　Daryl popped the rubber ball-like sea slime with his large shield and threw the large shield to pop the heaving mucus. Daryl caught the large shield that came back with the effect of Shield Throw with both hands, and again prevented the sea slime's assault with the shield in his hand.

　Diniel ran and changed places while using such a Daryl as a shield, and then stood still before firing an arrow. Diniel's shooting will not be disrupted at all if he himself stops and remains calm. For Diniel, who was required to shoot accurately while dodging monster attacks, the sea slime distracted by Daryl was no different than a target in a training ground.

　In the blink of an eye, the sea slime was pierced through the core magic stone by Diniel's arrows, and it turned into a particle of light and disappeared into a colorless small magic stone.

　By the way, the slime in the dungeon outside will stop moving if you break the magic stone, but the magic stone will also be worthless. Nevertheless, slime materials have many uses, so they are regularly hunted even if you don't have a magic stone.


That was an easy win!


　I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you. It's just like a big dog that picked up a ball, Tsutomu thought rather rudely as he accepted the magic stone.

　The three of us are hunting the monsters on the beach in such a manner. Daryl has reached the fifty-seventh level, so he attracts the monsters on the beach without any difficulty, and Diniel takes care of them. Tsutomu also only has to continue to apply support, so the battle will continue easily.

　However, if it's a short battle, it doesn't matter much even if there are no three different roles and so on, since Daryl and Diniel are high level to begin with. Amira was watching the battle boringly without changing her expression much. Hannah clasped her hands together and seemed to be pleased with Daryl's success.


''Well then, we'll bring Hannah into the battle next.
Yes, sir!


　Then, after showing the two of them a certain amount of flow, it was time to add Hannah to the battle. Hannah flapped her blue wings as if to get her spirits up.

　When she had tanked before, she had been equipped with heavy iron and steel armor and carried a large shield in each hand. But this time the equipment was different. Hannah is dressed in thin cloth clothing, like a folk costume, a piece of equipment she pulled from a copper-colored treasure chest when she was enrolled in Aldoret Crow. It is a special equipment for fist fighters, and it is one that comes with STR and AGI plus corrections.

　He doesn't have a shield, but rather a knuckle-wearing weapon. The knuckles have a hole in them that allows the claws to be retrofitted, and were able to be replaced depending on the situation. That same equipment is also attached to the legs. That full body equipment was the same equipment that Hannah had when she was an attacker.


''Daryl, try not to touch her at first, and if Hannah looks like she's in danger, please help her.
'I understand!　Hannah. Hannah!　Good luck!
I'll do my best!


　Motivated enough, Hannah replied cheerfully, pointing her fist at Daryl. She'd already been told by Tsutomu to stand around the dodging tank, but this was the first time she'd actually done it. Hannah walked down the sandy beach until she found the monster, rubbing her nervous, sweaty palms against her clothes over and over again.

　Then another sea slime and an encal lobster, a crayfish-like monster, appeared at the same time. As soon as Hanna was hit with a fly and a heist by Tsutomu, she flew through the air and approached the monsters.


''Combat Cry!''


　The red fighting spirit spreads around Hannah, and she earns the hate of all the monsters. The monsters look up at Hanna in the sky, but they have few ways to attack her. So they ignore her and start to target the others.

　Hanna attacks them from the sky. Her swift fist crushed the red shell of the Encal Lobster into pieces. The Encal Lobster is splattered with body fluids. Hannah then kicked at the slime, crushing the magic stone with her toes.

　Encal Lobster tried to attack Hanna as she came back to the ground and attacked, but the blue qi-clad woman quickly flew up into the sky to avoid it. Encal Lobster has no means of attacking Hannah since it doesn't have a long range attack. So she looked up at Hannah to prepare for a swoop from the sky.

　An arrow flew from the side of the Encal Lobster and pierced through its body. Diniel shoots precisely at the weak point of the monster that Hanna is focusing on. The sea slime hits the ground with a tentacle-like object and jumps upwards, but ends up being ducked by Hannah in a huff. And the sea slime, stuck in the air, was shot down by Diniel without a way to accomplish it.

　Hannah also thrust her fist into the slime in the air, grabbed the magic stone and pulled it out. With that, all the monsters turned into magic stones, and the first game ended without incident.


''Is this how it's going to be?''
Yes. That's good. Let's keep going at this rate.
All right!


　The monsters on the beach were poorly countered by the fly, so Hannah took down the monsters without being hit afterwards, while still distracting them.
