Chapter 7-Underground waterways and the suspicion of chains

 

(TL:By Rafael)

 

 

 

"I'm kind of nervous."(Silk)

 

 Silk looks out into the darkness and tenses up.

 

 

"...... I'm also a little nervous, I think."(Rain)

 

"Me too! What should we name this labyrinth?"(Marina)

 

 Marina is already planning to name the labyrinth.

 

 

 I'm a little jealous of her innocence and naturalness in these situations.

 

"Will it have any magical artifacts?"(Rain)

 

"I don't know. We might have to go deep to find the good stuff. ......"(Yuki)

 

"It would be nice to find something undiscovered."(Rain)

 

 That's for sure.

 

 If it is a new labyrinth that has not been found before, it is not surprising that undiscovered treasures and magical artifacts may be found.

 

 

 This could lead to the great discovery of the century.

 

 For example, the prototype of the delivery magic tool artifact we are using now was found that way.

 

"I hope we find something interesting."(Yuki)

 

"Yes. Romance of the unknown is important ......!"(Rain)

 

 

 Rain, looking even more excited than usual, smiled good-humoredly.

 

"I'm back ......."(Nene)

 

 In the meantime, Nene came back.

 

 It's not like she has blood on her hands either, and her steps are light.

 

"How was it?"(Yuki)

 

"I didn't find any demon monsters or traps so far. On the contrary, it's a little weird."(Nene)

 

"Yeah. Maybe the first level itself is an entrance."(Yuki)

 

 As Nene led the way through the darkness, we pondered a few possibilities.

 

 

 There is a possibility that it is an entrance.

 

 

 In the Colorless Darkness, there is an entrance area from the time you enter until you go down the stairs, which is a place where there is no danger, and there are other labyrinths like that as well.

 

 

 

 But I've never heard of a location suitable for a dungeon like an underground canal where the first area is an entrance area.

 

"Please wait!"(Nene)

 

 Nene's sharp whisper interrupted my thoughts.

 

I immediately understood why.

 

 

 The sound of something like dragging metal and loud footsteps ...... were coming from beyond the bend.

 

 

 It's also a very slow pace, but it's coming closer and closer to is.

 

"It's ...... an uncanny one."(Nene)

 


 

 

 Nene, who had ducked around a bend and checked ahead in her hand mirror, turned around with a nervous look on her face.

 

"What does he look like?"(Yuki)

 

"It's a humanoid with chains wrapped around its body. It's about the same size as Orc."(Nene)

 

"Chain ......?"(Yuki)

 

 

 I desperately tried to mobilize all of my experience and knowledge, but unfortunately I couldn't think of any demon monsters that would fit the bill.

 

 

"It's approaching us. What should we do?"(Nene)

 

"Do you think we can talk to them?"(Marina)

 

"In my opinion, it's impossible."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 It's rare, but not unheard of, to encounter a friendly demon in the labyrinth.

 

 

 There are some dungeons where you can find  werewolves that learn to do business with humans and sell their labyrinth finds in exchange for food, or  ghosts that will teach you ancient magic if you like.

 

 

 But those are the exceptions to the rule.

 

 

 As long as you're in a dungeon, you should consider all non-humans you encounter as enemies.

 

 Humans are not to be trusted, either.

 

"Let's set up our formation."(Yuki)

 

"Copy that."(Marina)

 

 

 While granting reinforcement magic to everyone, I prepare some magic.

 


 

 

 

 The first move of a red mage is always to use a weakening magic.

 

 

 

 I'd like to go with prismatic missiles, but that's a very taxing magic, and I want to find out which magic is effective against the demon monster in question.

 

 

"Ah..Ah"

 

 

 

 At the moment when I was about to jump out, the thing that was slowly approaching us appeared from the corner with surprising agility.

 

 

 I'm not sure what he sensed, but I'm sure he missed the timing of his surprise attack.

 

"Aah! Ack!"

 

The guy looks excited and shakes his body as he stomps on the ground.

 

 

 He's really strange.

 

 He has a stocky, humanoid shape, but his body is wrapped in chains so tightly that it's hard to tell if he's human or not.

 

 

 Some of the chains wrapped around his body were hanging down to the floor, making a jangling sound as he moved.

 

 

 Still, it seemed to be a weapon as well.

 

"Ahh!"

 

 

 In a move of agility unimaginable from his stocky body, he swung his arm down, and several strands of dangling chains slammed into the floor like flails or whips.

 

 Nene, who was standing right in front of him, easily ducked it, but if she got hit by that, she would be in trouble.

 

"《Paralyze》, 《Slow》, 《Blinding》."(Yuki)

 

 

  It was too shallow!

 

 

 The resistances  of the chain monster are a bit strong. It's a bit of a resistive resist. Is it some kind of undead or magical creature inside the chains?

 

 

The debuff does work itself, but it doesn't seem to be a major weakening.

 

 

"Leave it to me"(Marina)

 

 Marina, who has drawn her black sword, flies out next to me as I prepare the next weakening magic.

 

 Marina closes the distance towards the chain man, avoiding the chains being wielded and cutting them down.

 

 "《Venom》, 《Collapse》,  《Gravity》"(Yuki)

 

"Aah!

 

 The moment the magic of the "Collapse of Tears" entered, the chained man twisted around greatly.

 

 

 It was at that moment that Rain's <Immulsive Shock> caught the man in chains.

 

 Although it was a spell to frighten the opponent with a small electric shock, the gap created by this was perfect timing for Marina.

 

"I'll kill you!"(Marina)

 

 

 

 Marina's black sword with ”Magic sword" on it was waved three times with a breath ...... The broken chain danced in the sky.

 

 

"A....Aa...a"

 

 When the sound of chains ceased, the chain man was no longer there. ...... Only a large number of chains in a single lump remained.

 

TL Note- A good fight after a long time and I thank dreadeye38 for supporting our Translation.
