Episode XVIII: The Bond of [Tail of the Devil's Sword]

That's hilariously dull.

Laughing at the bottom of a dim hole. I've been hunting in the cave area for days.

Something's wrong with the date. Even in the underground labyrinth, it's easy to feel crazy, but even more so in the cave area, where the light of day doesn't enter.

I started sleeping in Pandora Scorpion's nest to increase my hunting efficiency to the maximum.

Pandora Scorpion sprinkles the colony with tons of unique pheromones.

Dungeon worms don't bother to get close to a colony of natural enemies, nor do other Pandora Scorpions strike another colony.

In other words, this is the safest place in the cave area as long as we destroy the colony.

It's just that habitability sucks.

The awful smell of Pandora Scorpion fills me with nausea.

In the first place, there's no way I can rest my mind in this place.

The cave sounds, always getting the awesome sounds of dungeon worms and Pandora Scorpion.

Take out your pocket watch and notepad. That's how I wrote down how many times I went around the clock needle to make sure I didn't lose my sense of date.

"It's five days since I started diving today. Time to go back."

It's not a good time to go back, and I won't have any more.

The heavy pressures of solo journeys that end with one mistake, the poor environment, and the fact that you're hunting like you're throwing your life away also chases me down.

My spirit is worse than my physical condition. I miss Kuna and Anne.

Luggage is worse. He carries a large backpack and pulls out his tent to make room, but he's already breaded with demon stones.

I couldn't ensure enough magic to [purify] more than using a lot of magic in my daily hunt, so I was supposed to pack it without using the magic stones that I had secured.

There's no food left.

I carried Coona's last cookie for me to my mouth.

Sweet and nutty, with lard calories.

"Thank you, Kuna."

Unfortunately I tried to eat Dungeon Worm and Pandora Scorpion meat...... too bad for a lot of things.

Only body fluids are used thanks to magic filtration into water.

I want blood dripping meat. Let's hunt on the way to the ground. I'd prefer a mammalian demon if possible. I want something delicious.

Standing up. Blurred vision, fluttering legs.

I'm sure I look terrible right now.

Come on, let's go for the ground. I got out of the hole and started aiming for the ground.

◇

He had an unexpected reunion on the fourteenth floor of the volcanic area and in a famous place as a camping spot in the volcanic area.

"So, why are Kuna and Anne here?"

"That's my line!

"I dived right into the dungeon after Sauji left by himself. I've been looking for a sausage based here. Exactly, I didn't get into the cave area."

"I'm sorry to hear that. I was always in the cave area."

When I arrived at the fourteenth basement in the evening, there was a tent I was used to seeing and there was Kuna and Anne.

No questions asked, Kuna grabbed me by the root and took me to the tent.

"So you can't find it. I never thought I'd go to the cave area alone."

"You survived the dungeon worm."

You two are surprised.

That would be so. There were three of us in the dungeon worm.

We are both well aware of the threat of dungeon worms showing up three while defeating one.

"I didn't fight, I was running away from the dungeon worm. What I was hunting for was another demon. That's all I've achieved in five days."

When the backpack was opened, there was a Rank 3 Demon Stone packed to the limit.

"How much are you making!?

"That's not normal."

"It's life-threatening. I thought you were going to die."

No joke, I was ready to die many times. He decided he could do it with my skill, but with a few mistakes, he was hunting for an abandonment called instant death.

Even I continued to feel fear, anxiety, and heavy pressure, and I was going crazy.

"Don't do something dangerous like that! We're a party."

"It's sad you don't seem to be trusted."

"I'm sorry. For risking my life, but I didn't want to involve you two in a hunt like gambling. I didn't like it either... I can't tell you why but there was a reason I had to be strong in a short time.

If I were you, I wouldn't do this.

"Get involved! Even at the risk of your life, Sage went if you were going. I'm so angry with you. That I broke the vow of [Tail of the Devil's Sword]"

"Well, the three of us always tried the dungeon together, and I should have sworn we were all about to return."

The two of them look resentful.

"You did.... but I don't know if you guys are going to be out of school. We're just too many days in attendance. If this confirms my last year and my dream of returning to Anne's nobility is not fulfilled, I have no ex or child."

I didn't just leave you two here because it's dangerous.

The only time you can be a nobleman when you graduate in Rank 3 is when you graduate straight. If you stay a year, you lose your eligibility.

"Oh, then I'm fine. Hehe, don't look sweet at Kuna."

"I only have a bad feeling about it."

Kuna always points at me with her throat and face.

Be subtle.

"I persuaded instructor Sugort. With my gorgeous bargaining skills, Anne and I are both exempt from classes as Sauji's assistant!

"…… it was almost a cry down. Kuna's sweet talent is unusual."

The sight seems to come to my attention.

I turned down Kuna's favor. Not once.

"That's why Anne and I left the day after Sauji left, and we were looking for Sauji. It's been tough over here."

"Yeah, unlike the water, the food, the sausage, I don't even know how to get to the next floor, and I know exactly how sweet I've been to the sausage. It took me three days to get here. If it was a sausage, I'd have done it in a day."

Looks like they both had a hard time.

Still glad you looked for me.

"And Sauji. I've been meaning to say this for a long time now. It stinks. It's also sooo"

Kuna is pinching her nose and tearing her eyes.

I can't help it. Instead of taking a bath for the last five days, I haven't even wiped my body. And Pandora Scorpion's body fluids are everywhere.

Well, this is a dare.

The Dungeon Worm avoids me when I'm bathing Pandora Scorpion's body fluids, making me somewhat safer.

"…… force majeure. But that's just not good. Those coonas stink, too."

"Ugh, you don't have a choice! It's hard to get water without Sauji. I can't use it to wipe my body. I didn't even know when you'd find Sauji."

"I was aware, but when Sauji told me to... I'm sorry, could I make some water for you?

I smell myself as Anne turns away looking embarrassed.

There is still magic. But it's too much.

"You two, hunt for the duly big demon. I [purify] and make water. Then it's the bath."

They make their eyes shine.

Usually, they washed away their bodies and hair with a bucket of water every day. It would be the first time this kind of ordinary exploration has had a hard time.

"Then I'll go. Kill him instantly and bring home the big man. It's a bath!

"Wait, Kuna. You mustn't damage the artery. Because there will be blood. And no flames. Because moisture flies."

"Anne, fine!

"Don't you have to take a bath?

"I will try!

That's how they leave.

I lie down. It's been a long time since I've had a tent. I knew the tent was good. There are ceilings, and the ground isn't cold. I haven't felt at ease in a long time.

◇

After a while, Kuna and Anne returned.

Looks like he's been working on a big cow demon. It not only ensures moisture, but also ensures dinner. Sounds good.

I haven't had meat this evening in a long time.

"What do you say, Sauji! This brilliant handiwork."

The bull demon had no top from his neck.

Did you burn your head off in an instant and carbide your wound to prevent blood from spilling?

"I can't complain this time. Let's get ready for a bath."

I make dirt columns out of sorcery, and I crush cows. It damages the arteries, creates an exit, and forces the heart to pump with electric shock to eject root blood. Blood is poured into pre-made holes. Soil magic is used to solidify the surface and the blood accumulates firmly.

[Purification] and furthermore magically remove all non-moisture impurities.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Sauji's magic is amazing all the time."

"Plenty of beautiful water. Impressive."

Two people divide the water into a handheld water bottle.

The meat is also dismantled, and what is not needed creates and fills a hole in a remote location.

Well, finally, the bath is waiting for you.

"Then the rest is the bath. Fortunately, there are no demons around here, and now there are no people. Coona, keep the water boiling."

"Leave it to me!

Coona's flaming magic makes hot water moderate.

Normally, I would never think that I would hate an open-air bath in a place like this, but I am too hungry for a bath to be rational.

"Wait, both of you."

Anne came with a tent. I devised a way to assemble it so that the floor area remains folded. Cover it in the bath hole.

"In case someone had a street, it wouldn't be good. Something I don't want to be seen other than sausage."

Anne crushes embarrassingly.

"Right. Well, let's go in."

"It's been a long time since I took a bath!

We take our clothes off and go into the bath hole.

It's an impromptu item, so it's full of three people.

But the dirt is falling off. When some dirt is removed, the water is cleaned by magic and only impurities are removed, so the hot water remains clean.

Both Kuna and Anne wear hot water to make them feel good, flush dirt, and rub their skin with a towel.

I feel like I'm back.

"Sauji, I'm hitting it."

"You seem a lot tired, but you're fine."

"…… I haven't done this in a long time."

My body seems to have remembered that I was finally accumulating in a reassuring situation like this.

Exactly enough to dissipate in a worm-smelling hole, I'm not even a pervert.

"Sauji, if you refill the food on this floor, will you dive into the cave area tomorrow?"

"That's not true. I'm suspicious that the magic stone I secured this time by the day of the lecture could even be [purified]."

When [purifying] a demon stone, the magic consumption depends on the rank difference between itself and the demon stone. Now I'm rank 3 lower, and Pandora Scorpion is rank 3 middle. There is a lot of magic required. Because of that, you can turn all magic to [purification] after tomorrow.

Again, this is why we turn back.

"Good. You don't have to be impotent anymore."

"I've done everything I can, so I'm going back to the ground"

I'm done hunting for my life.

Hold Anne, who was nearby. Since it is in the bath, each other's skin naturally touches each other.

And then crawl her fingers into her skin and nod her face around her neck.

"Gee, Sauge. Suddenly, no."

"I took a bath and it was refreshing, and I want to be refreshed over there next time. My skin and I are not going to be able to tolerate contact from now on."

"Sometimes you say that Sauji smells so much like my father. But…… fine."

"Well, I missed you too, Sauge."

Kuna and, Anne, kiss in turn.

Then I enjoyed the bath plenty. Makes me feel better in a double sense.

After all, the three of us are much better off than unscrupulous on their own.

I'm not going to tell you because of the light, but I couldn't help but be glad that the two of you came looking for me.

The emotion is expressed by loving the two of them.

◇

"Ugh, it's finally outside."

"I'm really tired this time. I'm sorry about this again."

"Well, I knew the three of us would be good. I can enjoy the evening."

"" Sauge (kun) Are you really reflecting (do you)?
