Chapter 46 Results of the Battle Junkies Assault

「Phew~…. It hasn’t been long since I started using magic, so it’s tough on my MP. I used more than 60% of my MP for one round….」

We have just finished our second attack on the slime room.

Me, Nina, and Ian are all steadily leveling up, and the drop items are quite a lot, but… it’s an act of sheer madness….

If the muscular man <Aniki!> that I saw yesterday found out about this reckless act, he would have dropped his fist without question.

「But it is a great harvest. We have already secured more than one sack of slime jelly and the same number of magic stones as drop items. Each slime jelly costs 3 iron plates and each slime magic stone costs 5 iron plates, so if we only use a few mana potions, which costs 1 iron plate each, it is profitable enough.」

Well, even though we only get 80 yen per slime, it’ll be profitable if we overhunted them this much….

Hey, Ian, your eyes are turning into money, you know?

I’m not making you live a hard life that would make you obsessed with money, you know?

「And the leveling is going well! My body is moving much better than it was before I came to the labyrinth!」

Nina….

Your eyes are sparkling needlessly, and it’s ruining your cute face….

Good grief… what should I do with these battle junkies….

「Well, we don’t have any other good alternatives anyway….  Today, we’ll do three more rounds and then go home. Looking at the time, I think we can go for about 8 rounds, but we might be unconsciously feeling nervous since it’s our first day in the labyrinth, so let’s not overdo it.」

「Understood.」

「Three rounds, right? I’ll do my best!」

Seriously, you guys are scary….

After that, while being mindful of our remaining MP, we completed our quota of 3 attacks and decided to return to the surface after checking our levels.

Jink (14)

Level: 68 (659/680)

Job: Adventurer (S)

HP: 680/680

MP: 210/527

Skills: Swordsmanship 56, Spearmanship 1, Body Strengthening 64, Water Magic 38, Earth Magic 5, Recovery Magic 24, Enchantment 33, Alchemy 17, Etiquette 5, Appraisal 10 (Max)

Gift: Item Box (Extra Large)

Others: Title <Tragic Illegitimate Child>, Aptitude list

Due to the overuse of water magic, my water magic and MP have grown remarkably.

The swordsmanship I used as a sub and the recovery magic I used during my break also have improved.

As for my level… it was high from the start and the level isn’t balanced with the slime, so it didn’t grow much despite the number of kills.

Ian (18)

Level: 27 (207/270)

Job: Slave (Master: Jink)

HP: 270/270

MP: 57/141

Skills: Swordsmanship 16, Body Strengthening 18, Wind Magic 22, Arithmetic 40, Speechcraft 36, Etiquette 24, Material Appraisal 10 (Max), Dismantling 32

Gift: Item Box (Medium)

Others: Title (Qualarute’s Prodigy, Murderer), Aptitude list

Ian’s wind magic and swordsmanship, which he used a lot, have improved.

His MP has grown remarkably, so when it grows a little more, I’ll let him use the equipment with water magic enchantment and have him use Water Cyclone when it’s tough for me.

Nina (12)

Level: 16 (154/160)

Job: Slave (Master: Jink)

HP: 160/160

MP: 5/5

Skill: Swordsmanship 7, Body Strengthening 1, Farming 2, Cooking 14

Nina’s level was low, so her level has increased significantly.

However… the growth of her swordsmanship, which she used a lot, and body strengthening, which was buffed a lot with enchantment, was slower compared to I and Ian.

Well, the opponents are slimes, so maybe I should give her a shield and let her grow her shield skill.

I can’t buff it with enchantment since I don’t have the skill, but Nina’s aptitude for a shield is C, so it might work out somehow….

When we arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild, the adventurers were persistently soliciting me as always, but since I had anticipated this in advance, I was able to evacuate to the 5th floor before I was exhausted.

「Jink-san, we are sorry for the matter of your adventurer rank. The receptionist who was in charge has been scolded severely, but… since many adventurers have already learned of Jink-san’s rank, I think it will cause you trouble in the future.」

Ah… so I was really the cause for the scolding yesterday….

Well, how should I put it… stay strong….

「They would have found out about my rank sooner or later, so you don’t have to worry about it. Well, no trouble has occurred so far, but if they try to forcefully invite me in the future, it may lead to trouble.」

「I understand. In that case, please consult with us. If we find out that the other party is at fault, we will not take any unfavorable action against Jink-san.」

I’m glad to hear that.

Now that I’ve got their words, I can strictly deal with those annoying headhunters.

「Thank you very much! Also, we killed a lot of slimes on the upper floor today, so I want to sell their magic stones and materials.」

「A lot of slimes? The 1st to 3rd floors, where there are only slimes, are full of adventurers, so there shouldn’t be enough monsters….」

「Ah~…. I thought it would be okay, so we charged into the slime room on the 3rd floor. The difficulty is completely different in that room…. If you’re not an A rank magician or above, you’ll be outnumbered and eaten.」

""

「Err…. Jink-san is a valuable enchanter, so it would be bad if something happened to you…. Please avoid doing something reckless like that…. If it’s alright with you, should we prepare an A rank magician as your escort?」

「It’s okay. The slave man standing behind me, Ian, also can use magic, and the three of us use a lot of offensive buffs, so we can deal with it just fine.」

Mona-san’s mouth is twitching, but I don’t need an escort to explore the labyrinth, so I won’t give in here.

After all, it would be meaningless if I get tired due to interpersonal relations and show an opening during the exploration because of it.
