Fastest Level Up!

The transfer magic to return was activated and we returned to the surface. And there was one thing I needed to do before we separate.

"Yui, you should tell the dungeon supervisor about what happened this time. If the Adventurers Association heard the context of your issue, those guys who left you in the dungeon will get a punishment."

"Eh? I think there is no need to go that far since I was safe thanks to Rin-san…"

"It doesn't matter whether you are safe or not right now. Because if we let those guys act as they please, it could negatively affect other adventurers."

"T-that's true…"

Immediately after advancing in her step, Yui suddenly came to a halt. In her line of sight, there were four adventurers sitting on the ground while drinking alcohol away from the dungeon's entrance where people gathered.

"By any chance, they're the ones who left you behind?".

"Yes, they are…"

This means, right now they're celebrating their success in capturing the dungeon. What a nuisance. However, it was helpful to be able to hear their conversation from here because of how excited they are.

"Well, I was surprised when I knew that only four people could challenge the boss but, I'm glad we managed to do it."

"Because stamina-wise, it's impossible to return back from there. Well, it was quite difficult to defeat the boss, though."

"I wonder if that girl participated too, would it be easier to defeat the boss?"

"Ah? Although healers are rare, she was still level 40, you know? And she was about to run out MP too, she would just be a hindrance if she participated."

"When you say it like that, that's true. We are saved thanks to the leader's decision."

"Hahaha, thank me more!"

"…"

"…"

It was a very unpleasant conversation. Even I who didn't suffer any loss from them thinks so. It must be even more unpleasant for Yui who is standing beside me. Then, I approached them alone.

"You guys seem to be having fun."

"Hmm? Of course! It's like we live for this one cup after capturing a dungeon."

"I see, then too bad. Because you guys won't be able to enjoy that happiness from now on."

"…Ah?"

As if they've just noticed my hostility that was directed to them, the four men stood up with their faces red in anger. Or maybe they're just drunk.

"Are you looking down on us? What did you mean by that?"

"Looks like you guys don't understand the sins you've committed. It's about her."

When I pointed at Yui who was behind me, The men directed their sight to her. Then, they widened their eyes.

"Hey, it has not even been 10 minutes since we defeated the boss. So, how can she be on the surface?"

"Isn't it obvious? We just defeated the boss and returned to the surface."

"There is no way I can believe something like that! It took us nearly 30 minutes to defeat the boss even with four of us! There is no way that good-for-nothing and a brat like you can defeat it faster than us!"

Even though the person herself was right in front of them, it seems they don't want to admit it. Then, I sighed loudly.

"Well, it doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. The problem is the sins you guys just committed. You don't even know how many people can challenge the boss of the dungeon that you challenged. For that reason, I am sure you guys are also ignorant of the adventurers' rules. And your act of leaving your fellow adventurer alone in the dungeon should be punished. At the very least the adventurers qualification of you four will be suspended or at worst, it could even be stripped."

"Wha-"

They probably didn't expect it would be this serious. Those four were clearly shaken.

However, it was only for a while. As the one who was called the leader displayed a nasty smile.

"Haha, well well, thanks for the warning. I will tell you something good as my thanks… If you want to act with a sense of justice, you should choose your opponent wisely!"

The man pulled out the sword on his waist and pointed its tip at me as he said that.

"Leader!? Don't tell me!"

"Yes, I will get rid of this guy right here! This way, people won't know what we have done, and we could just say we were suddenly attacked and we killed them in self-defense! Haha, it's because dead men tell no tales."

After hearing their leader's words, the other members steeled themselves and prepared to fight.

"It's unfortunate for you, brat. We've just surpassed level 70 because of the capture rewards. You alone can't defeat us!"

"Over level 70, huh…"

Certainly with 4 people at level 70, they would be able to fight someone around level 100 on an equal footing. However…

"Go and die while regretting that you got carried away and brazenly appeared before us-"

"—Where are you looking at?"

—For the current me, you guys aren't even my opponent.

I approached the men in an instant and grabbed his face with one hand. Then, I slammed his face to the ground with all my might causing the concrete ground to crack a bit.

"Leader!?"

"What just happened!?"

It's the result of prioritizing selecting skills that increases my agility for the past few days and it seems with just their levels, they couldn't see my movements.

"Oi, don't tell me you are dead with just that"

"Guhaa!"

Then, I lightly lift the man with one hand.

"You said dead men tell no tales but… You guys are needed to prove my innocence. So, I will be troubled if you died just like that."

After throwing the leader away, I slowly walked to the other three.

And I said.

"So, Who is next?"
