Chapter 13. First Party Action (6)
The shape of the box that appeared was similar to a coffin, but instead of being thin, it was long.
It’s made of metal and has a lid at the top.
According to what we heard at the training, [Treasure Chests] are rarely dropped when a monster is defeated.
It’s to contain dungeon items such as weapons, armor, and consumable items.
However, the [Treasure Chest] may also contain traps.
If you don’t have the skills to deal with it. It can be troublesome.
When I mentioned this, Kodachi-san puffed her chest out.
“Hmmm? Actually, I have that skill, this one.”
Saying this, Kodachi-san held his hand toward the box and chanted.
“[Trap Detection]!”
The treasure chest then emitted a red glow.
Seeing this, Kotachi-san said to himself, “Hmmm…”.
“It looks like there is a trap firmly in place. The type is a crossbow bolt. It’s the kind where if you try to open it, an arrow flies out from inside and damages you.”

“You can even tell what kind of trap it is? It just looked like a red light to me.”
“Yes. It seems that only the user of the skill can know that. Well, it doesn’t matter what it is, [Trap Removal]!”
This time, the treasure chest emitted a green light, followed by a click, and then the light ceased.
Kodachi-san mumbled, “That’s it.”, and opened the treasure chest’s lid.
There is a medium-sized sword in its sheath in the treasure chest, which she pulled out with a “Whoa!
Incidentally, the treasure chest turns into a black mist and disappears after she takes the sword.
Kodachi-san pulled the sword out of its sheath and showed it to me.
“This is a broadsword. I guess it costs about 30,000 yen at the armory, so it’s quite a treasure. I’m used to using two daggers, but would you like to try it, Musou-san?”
“What, are you sure?”
“Tch tch tch tch, I didn’t say I would give it to you, Musou-san. We’ll think about how to divide the rewards after we leave the dungeon. But if it’s going to be our temporary strength boost, I thought it might be a good idea for now.”
“I see. But, hmmm ……”
I’ve gotten used to the spear too.
I plan to expand my spear skills in the future, so it’s in my best interest to become proficient with a spear.
And one more thing.
“I’m a little nervous about going to the 3rd floor and using a weapon I’m not used to.”
“Now ……? Ah, Musou-san, did you level up because of now?”
“Yes. Hobgoblin experience, that’s pretty good…14 points?”
I check the results of the battle as I manipulate my status board.
I had just gained some experiences from killing hobgoblins, and my level increased from 3 to 4.
I further jumped to the skill acquisition screen and acquired [MP Up (Magic x 4)] without any hesitation.
It was a skill that had not been included among the four that I had previously considered, but after fighting on the 2nd floor, I realized that what I needed the most now was an MP pool for the [Earth Heal].
After all, that is the lifeline.
As my HP decreased, my MP decreased by some amount to heal myself. So the MP pool would become a margin for exploration ability and a margin for my mind.
If that gives me more MP to spare, then there is a future for me to master [Rock Bullet] and use it.
So, here is my status at level 4.
Musou Daichi

HP: 40/40 (+13)

-Skills-.

[Mapping]
[HP up (Endurance x 4)]
[MP Up (Magic Power x 4)]
Remaining skill points: 0
I feel that I’m much stronger than I was at the first level, but I’m not sure.
Come to think of it.
“What is Kodachi-san’s status?”
“Eh, Musou-san, you want to see the status of a maiden?”
Kodachi-san shows a gesture of pulling back, hugging her body with a thumping look.
What? I don’t know what that is.
Is that what status is?
I was afraid I might have stepped on the wrong foot, but Kodachi-san let down her guard and laughed.
“Let’s put aside the joke ──”
“…… Was that a joke? I thought I said something bad. My heart was racing.”
“Haha, sorry. But I’ve been getting beaten up so much that I feel I’ve done it a little bit.”
Saying this, Kotachi-san stuck out her tongue.
This is where I feel like I’m being toyed with.
I wish you would moderate your little devilry. My normal boy mind can’t stand it.
But it seems that half of it is true.
“But status is indeed a sensitive thing, so there seems to be a tendency not to ask too carelessly. Just as it is impolite to ask someone, ‘How much do you pay? That is rude.”
“Oh, I see. ……. Sorry, I didn’t know that.”
“It’s okay. It’s okay. I’ll tell you at all, Musou-san. Besides, if we are party members, secrecy is not good. [Status Open].”
Kodachi-san said and opened her status, and showed it to me.
