Manowa 87

 [TL: To be consistent with the previous translators I didn't fix Zinray to Jinrai, but for certain reasons it was bothering me so I finally decided to change it]
Chapter 87 - Cutting Through the Monster House


「Run runnn.」

Kazane made Hippo-kun dash with all their power as she looked at the exit, but nearly thirty monsters had already taken up positions in that direction.


「Ch, Spell・Firestorm・Slicer!!!」

「Hit! Lightning, run through the clouds!」


Kazane and Louise's magic simultaneously took flight.


「「「Gugyaaaaaa」」」


Many monsters in front of their eyes were blown away.

「Tiara, a wall of Flame Knights!」

「Ye, yes.」

According to Kazane's instructions Tiara called six Flame Knights to hold down the monsters in front of Kazane and the others to make a path. But there were still more than a dozen monsters blocking the exit.

「Next is Sieg, can you do it?」

「Yes.」

Sieg swung the White Sword. His aim was dull because of his unreasonable posture on the horse, but there were many enemies. No matter where he fired he would hit.

「Uryaaaaa!」

The third White Fang opened the way to the exit.

「Ush. Now then, Skill・Golem Maker・Nurikabe-kun and Nurikabe-kun and Nurikabe-kun and Nurikabe-kun and Nurikabe-kun!

Kazane summoned Nurikabe-kun golems as fast as she could speak, and walls were created on the left and right on the way to the exit. However, the Army Ants on the unbroken parts of the ceiling spit formic acid down at them.

「Cover with the cloaks!」

Everyone pulled the cloaks over their heads at Kazane's instructions. No, instead of covering herself Louise chanted a spell.


「Lightning, run through the clouds!」


Six Army Ants fell due to the power of the released lightning.

「Gu」

At the same time Louise's shoulder was bathed in acid and she moaned. But right now they didn't have the leeway to worry about it.

「Runnnnnnnnnn!!!!」

Jinrai and Yumika finished off any nearby monsters that were still breathing while Kazane threw two Flame Burst Orbs to wipe out the remaining enemies, and they finally reached the exit.


「They're coming, Kazane!!」

Kazane jumped off Hippo-kun at Tiara's shout, and stuck『White Blaze』into the ground.

「Skill・Golem Maker・Nurikabe-kun Onigawara Edition!」

With Kazane's skill activation the passage was completely blocked by a wall.


「Guruuu」

「Gyakya」


The cries of the monsters resounded from the other side of the wall.

「Fu, I made it as sturdy as possible, but I wonder if it will last. Now?」

「Usually they will go to another exit to look for prey. After some time their monster instincts will return and the different species will start fighting.」

Jinrai was also catching his breath and answered.

「Is that so? Then we should be safe. This area is unexplored and wasn't marked on the dungeon map, but shall we run away for now?」

「Ah, let's do that. It would be really difficult to deal with that amount.」

Jinrai and the others said that 50 Minotaurs appeared, but it seemed like there were more than 200 monsters out there. Killing all of them would be difficult.


Baki


「What?」

A disturbing sound was suddenly heard.

「No way, it's being destroyed?」

「Is that so? Were there Orcs?」

「Ah, now that you mention it, there were.」

Kazane replied with a worn-out face. There weren't many of them, but there were certainly some in that group. The wall was gradually being destroyed by the Orcs' superhuman strength.


「Bumoooo!!」

And the wall was destroyed.


「Louise-san, I'm sorry, but please!」

「The timing is scary.」

While holding her inflamed shoulder Louise once again chanted「lightning, run through the clouds」and struck the Orcs that were rushing in. The Health of the Orcs was considerably high and they could not be killed by that degree of magic, but

「Yumika, let's go.」

「Yes.」

Jinrai and Yumika ran forward and each destroyed an Orc's core.

「Both of you withdraw.」

They drew back at Kazane's words. Then,

「Sieg, mow them down with White Fang.」

「Uwaaaaaa!!!」

White Fang eradicated the monsters that entered the passage.

「Spell・Firestorm・Slicer!」

Furthermore, Kazane cut down the Army Ants that were advancing on the ceiling.

「Come out, Yuuko-nee! Skill・Golem Maker・Tatsuyoshi-kun!」

The wave of monsters temporarily subsided, so Kazane summoned her reliable comrades.

「Tatsuyoshi-kun, strike them down in throwing mode. Yuuko-nee, cooperate with Jinrai-san and Yumika to kill the enemies!」

Tatsuyoshi-kun nodded and Yuuko-nee replied「nya」.

「I will do it with Wolf God Transformation!」

「Nuu, with this rejuvenated body it doesn't matter whether there's 100 or 200.」

Yuuko-nee, Wolf God Yumika, and Jinrai advanced. The summoned silver wolves were already running behind them.

「Tiara, protect this place with your Flame Knights. Sieg, give stones to Tatsuyoshi-kun for stone throwing.」

「Understood.」

「Leave it to me.」

Tiara and Sieg nodded at Kazane's words. Kazane turned around and rushed over to Louise, who was supporting herself with a boulder.

「Spell・Heal」

Kazane chanted the spell and treated Louise's shoulder.

「Fuu, it's effective.」

「I'm sorry, I should have strengthened the heal.」

「What are you saying?」

Louise laughed at Kazane's words. The girl in front of Louise's eyes was doing her best, and she understood that.

「I will also go out to fight, so please take care of any enemies that get past Tatsuyoshi-kun.」

「Leave it to me. Take care.」

Kazane nodded at Louise's words and started running.

「Really. If she were a boy I certainly would have already fallen in love with her.」

『More than me?』

Louise replied「well now」to Mefirus' question. Unfortunately, Louise only fell in love with men. It was a meaningless hypothetical.


「One shot like before. Tatsuyoshi-kun, Human Dive!」

Then Kazane Bazooka burst into the swarming enemies.



**************



The battle continued for another 30 minutes. Yumika's Wolf God Transformation ended, and Jinrai was fighting to the limit. Yuuko-nee's fur was a mess from struggling to the end, and Tatsuyoshi-kun threw stones until the shape of the dungeon's wall was altered. Tiara, Sieg, and Louise also fought to the end, and it finally concluded with Kazane kicking and killing the last Burrow Tiger with Killing Leg.


「We did iiiiit!!!!!」


Kazane shouted as she fell down and lay spread-eagled on the floor.

The Flame Burst Orbs and White Ice Orbs were completely used up. She thought they would have been useful against the Black Rock Dragon, but she couldn't stop. She stopped holding them back because they were magical tools that could take down dozens of monsters by themselves. Kazane's level rose by 2. In the middle of battle Killing Leg also changed to Lv2, and she confirmed its rise in power during the battle. In addition, the Berserk Ogre Greaves also became tinged with red, and their shape became subtly thorny. When she looked at her Status her Strength had a plus correction, so it seemed that they were growing for some reason. It seemed that the power of her normal kick without the skill activated was also growing stronger.


「Uwa, what an amazing state of affairs. We did it safely.」

Yumika didn't get very tired during the Wolf God Transformation, so she still had a relatively decent amount of remaining stamina.

「They were only small fry, after all. But the amount was high.」

Jinrai answered while his shoulders heaved from his breathing. As expected, even though he rejuvenated ten years he was highly fatigued from struggling against that many.

「No, it was really awful. Everything was annihilated? With one party?」

Louise also happily laughed and cracked jokes. Tiara and Sieg were relieved and were sitting back to back on the ground.


「So, there is treasure.」

「Are you serious?」

Kazane stood up after Louise's remark. There was certainly a treasure box in the center of the room. The treasure chest also looked much more gorgeous than usual.

『When a Monster House appears a remarkably grand treasure chest will also appear on the spot. Perhaps it is a reward.』

Mefirus told Kazane.

「From who?」

『Well...』

「Never mind that, open it quickly.」

Louise excitedly pushed Kazane's back.

「Ye, yeah.」

Kazane said, then came in front of the treasure chest and forcefully opened it.


「Circlet of Wisdom.....」


Kazane was stunned by what she saw inside.

「Hm, I've never seen that before.」

「It's a magical tool that allows someone to see through all illusions. An amazingly powerful thing.」

「Ah, isn't Sieg equipped with that?」

Sieg reacted to Yumika's remark, but the Sieg she referred to was the summoned spirit Sieg. Kazane examined it with her Appraisal Glasses.


Name: Circlet of Wisdom

Rarity: A

Effect: Strengthens accuracy and allows remote viewing. A magical tool that invalidates all kinds of illusions. Dispels mental state abnormalities.


「It's the real deal.」

Kazane was delighted from the bottom of her heart as she looked at it.

「Well then, in a moment I'll put it on our leader.」

「Eh?」

Louise took the circlet from Kazane and pulled Kazane's hair back, then decorated Kazane's forehead with the circlet.

「Is it okay?」

「Could we really take it from you after you made such a face?」

Louise replied. Everyone there nodded.

「Yeah. Thank you, everyone.」

Kazane said and smiled. It was a full-faced smile.


(Many people would find that smile impossible to resist, right?)

Yumika was one of them, and she smiled. Then everyone smiled.


They were smiles of victory.
