「Since that’s the case, what about you, Momokawa-kun?」

「Eh, me? Do you really need to ask that question?」

Though Class Rep was looking at me with a cold, piercing gaze that was enough to send a chill down my spine, I let her to do that.

「My vocation is 『Shaman』. It’s an extremely useful vocation that allows me to have a nice and comfortable bed, hot bath, and delicious meal in this damned dungeon survival.」

「What about your combat prowess?」

「With regard to my combat prowess, since the damage on me will be rebounded back to my attacker due to my passive skill, you can say that my combat prowess is zero when there’s no opponent.」

「Hey, have you really defeated a boss by yourself?」

「I have. Despite my looks, I’ve plenty of experience in soloing on some stage. Well, it’s not by choice, of course, but… It was due to an unpleasant incident which you know of too, right?」

I glanced toward that bi*ch, Kenzaki Asuna who averted her gaze. Not even a word of apology from her, eh?

「Momokawa-kun, that topic is a bit…」

「I know, let’s keep this topic for later.」

Thus, I began the tale of myself soloing a boss.

「I defeated a basilisk-like giant lizard who can spit out deadly poison, the boss in the area filled with a purple swamp.」

「Seriously? How did you do that?」

「I used up all my courage and wisdom of mankind.」

When I recalled that event now, it really was fierce combat. Rather, I might have really died at that time if not for one of my passive skills, 『Vessel of Poison』.

「That’s a vague way of telling it.」

「Shaman has a wide range of skills, after all, there’s more to that story, but it will have to wait until later. Anyhow, since even I, with my lack of offensive power, managed to kill the boss with enough preparations and plans, no one should give up on themselves.」

Simply put, if we’re talking about the strongest opponent I’ve ever faced, it would be Higuchi or Seyram though. The reason I didn’t say anything about that was that those opponents were related to the people I murdered.

「Well then, next is your turn, Souma-kun.」

「Yeah.」

It was a cold reply, but I felt neither anger nor irritation in his voice, his voice was flat. I guess he wouldn’t be perturbed by me talking to him after he cooled off.

「My vocation is 『Hero』. I can use both sword and magic along with each skill. My hero-like skill is the sword of light. The strongest foe that I defeated is the Dracula-like fella, the boss before this area.」

It seemed that Dracula’s combat style resembled Suma-kun’s, he could use both sword and magic. Since he could barely defeat it in a one-on-one battle, Souma-kun was clearly the stronger one.

Souma-kun had also leveled up properly. Just how powerful had he become right now, I wondered… Maybe he would kill me once he knew that Mei-chan could only overwhelm him in a contest of pure strength.

I guess I had to examine the hero’s power in detail after this to prevent any incident in the future.

「I am next.」

The strongest force on my side that could rival hero Souma was none other than my main attacker, super ace, and my guardian deity, Mei-chan the berserker.

「My vocation is 『Berserker』. I can use weapons, but I’m pretty much useless with regard to magic. And then, uhm, I guess you can say that I’m quite confident about my strength.」

She did a good job explaining her power in an obscure way. The person herself seemed to realize that she was a bit more powerful than normal.

「Hey, are you slimming down so much due to the power of your vocation?」

The fearless Randou-san bravely asked the question that everybody had on their minds, but was too scared to ask. In fact, the other girls were also looking intently at Mei-chan the moment Randou-san asked that question.

However, the pitiful creature called women still can’t escape from two absolute necessities for their beauty namely exercise and dietary restriction even in this world of magic. I was the only one who knew that Mei-chan had been fighting fiercely as the vanguard after she awakened as a berserker and gained that miraculous proportion that was enough to make all gravure models cry tears of blood. Yes, everything was the result of her own efforts.

「Uhm, the reason I changed is, Kotaro-kun.」

「Momokawa~, maybe we should talk about this later?」

「Randou-san, there’s no such thing as a weight reduction drug.」

And stop making a face as if you have seen the end of the world.

Let’s keep the matter about the power seed that can help to burn calories a secret for now. I feel bad doing this, but it’s definitely not because I don’t want to see Randou-san lose her weight, okay?

「I’ve defeated various bosses, but the strongest one is definitely that pyramid gogma.」

Hearing that she went as far as consuming 『Reagent Ｘ』, I knew that it was a completely tumultuous battle. Yeah, I really want to see Mei-chan’s gallant figure, after all.

Nevertheless, it was typical of Mei-chan, I mean back then, she had to fight alongside people she couldn’t trust. I mean, how she had ended up facing two of the five gogmas by herself if weren’t for the problem with the party? Moreover, the so-called classmates had never given covering fire for her or healing magic even once during the time she was with them. I seriously wanted to ask what in the hell the other party members did back then.

Well, it may be because the best situation for them was having Mei-chan get herself killed by one of the monsters they encountered along the way.

However, I would never let that happen again the moment I hold the right to command the team.

「Well then, I am next――」

I ignored Souma Sakura’s self-introduction while recalling all those bleak events of the past.

Rather than ignoring her, the real reason was simply that there was no value in hearing that useless information right now. I mean, considering Souma Yuuto’s personality, there was no way he was going let his party members fight properly.

""

At most, their skills and equipment were just a little better than the last time I saw them.

By the way, Souma Sakura didn’t say anything about her omni barrier that could only protect herself, the 『Oracle Field』 during her introduction. So she was that kind of person, eh.

「My vocation is 『Geomancer』.」

And just like hero harem’s team, Tendou was the strongest in his yankee team, and the other party member didn’t grow that much during the time we were apart. Seeing that the Randou-san trio along with JuryMary-combi were safe and sound, they didn’t seem to encounter any problems along the way. But, they still grew properly even in that state.

「Oi, who was laughing just now? Are you looking down on my earth magic?」

「It’s Shimokawa.」

「Shimokawa.」

「Wa-Wait, You’re mistaken, I’m just―― just curious about Randou’s golden revolver, what the heck is that!?」

Shimokawa-kun was laughing at Randou-san’s 『Geomancer』 eh.

Well, earth magic in many games and mangas was considered a bad or miss vocation, after all, it didn’t have the image of being OP but… The same could be said for your 『Aquamancer』 though. I mean, the user of water magic was usually attached to the image of a pure MAIN HEROINE.

I looked at Shimokawa who was trying to avert his gaze in a hurry toward the golden revolver with a pitiful gaze. But well, I’ve been wondering myself what in the heck was that revolver? Was that really a golden gun?

「Well, I’ve become stronger thanks to Momokawa’s advice though.」

「You really are not beating around the bush, eh.」

「Eh, Momokawa, why does it sound like a flag, like something had happened between Randou and you?」

「Shamele~ss.」

「… Kotaro-kun, did something happen between Randou-san and you?」

「HIEEE!」

The first thing that came to my mind at that instant was my first kiss with Randou-san.

It was supposed to be one page of my springtime of youth, but nothing happened after that due to the incident with the arachne. And that fucking arachne was… Had now become a vessel for Rem the 2nd.

Well, the most terrifying thing wasn’t the arachne, it was Mei-chan’s reaction. I mean, what’s with this dead serious look on her face? Look, Shimokawa was laughing as if he was enjoying this situation. That’s why smile, please.

「Well, nothing really happened though…」

「Futaba, have you kissed Momokawa?」

「!!??」

　Randou-san, don’t pour fuel into the raging flame, please! Seriously stop, I mean, it’s not like I’m dating both Randou-san and Mei-chan, and being stamped as trash before I even had a relationship, so can you please stop making the situation even more complicated?

「What do you mean?」

「E-~h, I mean nothing though?」

Mei-chan was looking at Randou-san, her eyes were serious.

Wa~h, awesome, so this was the legendary scene of carnage~.

「Kotaro-kun… Are you going out with Randou-san?」

「Eh, Momokawa has already gone out with Futaba, right?」

And then, now they decided to throw me right into the center of that carnage.

Girls, what’s the meaning of that question? Could it be that you girls are in love with me? The possibility aside, should I just confess to both of them right here?

No, wait a minute, think carefully… if I confessed to them and it turned out that they did not want to date me, that would crush my heart and sap my willpower to continue the capture of this dungeon.

Even if that wasn’t the case, I should be very careful when choosing my words. Now, remember, one of my policies, before I left this dungeon, was to get away from a love affair that might prove fatal――

「Eh, didn’t Momokawa tell us before that he is going out with Futaba-san?」

Shimokawa, curse you!

The white lies that I made that day to show off had actually snowballed and become a nuclear bomb at the worst possible timing… Seriously, what should I do now…
