Could it be that the situation inside has been resolved?
The adventurers over here did nothing more than ask a few people to carry mana potions, and they didn’t do anything else.
What happened to the other adventurers?
“The others went back inside. I think they’re taking down Centipede right now.”
“Oh, come on. Is that alright? There are some low-rank adventurers in there, aren’t there?
There are quite a few low-rank adventurers left around here. Fortunately, there were some high ranking adventurers who just came back. They take care of the centipedes. The low-rank adventurers have been divided into groups for evacuation assistance, supplies, medical care, and so on. The medicinal herbs that Ouren-san delivered earlier turned out to be very useful.
“I-I see. ……”
They say that if you do good deeds, they will come back to you, but just reports like this can make me feel pretty good.
Well, I’m glad to hear that you’ve been helpful…….
You can repay me with a nice meal.
“I’m tired. ……”
「「「「 SO STINKY! 」」」」
Shut up.
It can’t be helped!
Do you know how many mana potions I drank?
Do you guys know who drank this much?
You gotta be kidding me.
Sigh, but at least I recovered a lot of MP. ……
Without it, I would have collapsed halfway through.
I have to be thankful for this mana potion even though it was disgusting.
Uhmm, my MP is …… around 348 …….
There’s no way I’ll ever drain out my MP again. …….
I mean, I won this ……, right?
Thank goodness. …….
“You guys should be a little happy… I did my best, you know…?”
“Well, now that you mention it, there’s no cheering even though you’ve beaten the monsters. But…”
“I- it is what it is, I guess”
“Perhaps.”
The adventurers looked at each other and then said in unison.
[[[[Its hard to believe someone who only drank mana potion to anihilate these monsters]]]]
“ITS ALL WAS ME! MY F-ING SKILLS!!! DAMN IT!!”
How cruel.
I guess it’s because I feel more relaxed to be able to say this.
This time I’m going to tolerate it. ……
I wasn’t seeking cheers or anything, but it’s normal for people to cheer when they win, isn’t it?
I just felt a little uncomfortable.
“Well, let’s go back …….”
“That’ s right! There could still be centipedes inside.”
“I’m going ahead!”
“Let me show Ouren-san the way.”
“Roger that!”
They’re making decisions on their own, but I’m too tired to do anything else, so I’ll just leave it to them.
I’ve done my best, so they’ll let me off the hook for that, right?
Boom.
A red beam of light passed right next to me for a moment.
The light hit the adventurer who had said he would go ahead and ran, leaving a large hole in his abdomen.
We all froze, not knowing what had happened.
The adventurer, with a large hole in his abdomen, collapsed without strength.
I heard a thud, and finally realized what had happened.
We were attacked.
“Kyaaaaaah!!”
“W-who is it? ……Eh?”
The foot of the adventurer next to me was blown off.
He lost his footing and fell to the side.
“Gaaaahhhh! My leg! My leg!”
“Damn it! Pneumatic Barrier!”
I figured out that the attack was coming from behind (Outside), so I set up a larger pneumatic barrier right behind me.
Since I used 100 MP for the barrier, it should be strong.
It should somehow prevent the attack.
And the barrier is transparent.
Through the barrier, I see the enemy.
There was one …… familiar figure floating there, and a man with horns, who looked listless.
I recognize one of them.
I don’t know where he’s been all this time, but the fact that he shows up here under these circumstances suggests that ……
“So, you are the main culprit this time. Lequam….!!”
Lequam Saulmaldt looked at me with a grim smile on his face.
