Year 7446, Month 8, Day 12

Originally we had intended to spend another day for a total of one week in the dungeon but I told Cathy to return to Baldukk this evening. The {Exterminators} should have carried the supplies to the 4th floor twice and since the {Butchers} have Zenom with them they should have carried all of that to the 6th floor as well. And I guess we'll know on our way back.

When we teleported back to the 6th floor the {Butchers} were all chatting around Zenom in the teleport room. It seems they were waiting and intended on returning with us.

"Greed-kun! Zenom-san is amazing!"

"Yeah! The skill with which he cleaned up that ogre in no time at all, that was~ magnificent!"

Kevin and Jeru were both talking on and on in their excitement. Eh? Zenom cleaned things up in no time at all?

"Firefreed-san, after all he's reliable."

"That's right, thanks to that we were able to concentrate on the remaining ogre with all of us.."

"It was easy to use magic as well."

It seems Misu, Kamu, and Binsu were helped quite a bit.

"Yeah, he's on a different level~"

"Yeah, as expected.."

"After all, when it comes to the sharpness, accuracy, power, and timing of his attacks they're all splendid!"

Ginger, Kimu, and Hisu commented in admiration as well. Including myself all of the members of the {Slaughterers} were making faces like it's only obvious but Ralpha was grinning. It feels just a bit charming.

Up until now Zenom has taken lead over over the {Butchers} and {Exterminators} a number of times. However, he's never fought a opponent on the level of an ogre together with them. They've only seen just a small fraction of the time when I was rampaging. It's not like it's anything to hide but I guess he made perfect use of that axe? Thinking that I tried asking but it doesn't seem like he completely showed off the ability of his magic axe either. Well, even if you just normally use that {Cold Axe.Of.Returning} it's abilities were considerably high though.

Hn? Come to think of it Rokko is quiet and just hanging his head down.

Judging from the state of things it seems they took down a number of ogres so shouldn't he have profited big time?

He's the one who it usually feels like is making the most noise...

"Rokko. The only one who was injured was you. Isn't it that you're lacking in training? How about you running as well?"

Misu started preaching to Rokko with his head down. He was injured?

"Just stop already, Misu. Rokko did his best. The timing of his first step in had all of his strength behind it and was better than everyone including myself. Certainly he ended up taking a hit in passing but if it hadn't been an ogre then Rokko would have been able to endure it just fine. It's true that ogres are idiots but their skill with using the club is that of a first-rate veteran. They're extremely strong as well. Rokko was quite something just being able to take that head on and only suffer a broken armor from the shield he was holding."

Zenom quietly stopped that Misu and lifted up Rokko. I see, Rokko must have messed up somewhere and in order to cover for that Zenom probably had to instantly kill off an ogre. Zenom normally would never push himself and doesn't fight in a flashy way but if the party falls into a crisis he completely changes going super offensive with his blows.

According to Zenom they defeated groups of two ogres twice. Rokko ended up being seriously injured near the latter part of that combat. It seems it was just a bit more than two hours ago. On the basis that we should be teleporting through pretty soon Zenom ordered Misu and Binsu to use the spell {Cure} once each pouring their low remaining mana into it taking them lower than the amount required for recovering it naturally.

This is something that I normally say. In the worst case even if it's the spell {Cure} which only uses 4 MP, in most cases, even if a magician who's acting normal can't naturally recover their MP after that they should have enough leeway use it one more time. There's a lot of food here and in the worst case there's even a rope for tying people up in the survival kit on Zenom's waist.

Fortunately it seems that both of them were fine without exhausting their mana. Also, Zenom said it was precisely because of Rokko stepping in with such good momentum that they were able to stop the charging ogres in the wasteland with good footing as well.

It seems that if Rokko was just a bit later they would have ended up having to fight in the bushes where the footing was a bit bad.

Just, Zenom said, "Even if the footing is a bit bad if it's just that level of situation there's anything that can be done. I don't really get him." and laughed. Even if he has the power to make decisions, he doesn't have the power to make judgements..I guess? I use the spell {Cure All} on Rokko and just in case had Miduchi use {Cure All} as well before whispering, "Actions are things someone is always watching." into Rokko's ear and leaving it at that.

There was over 70 kg in supplies gathered in the teleport room on this 6th floor focused around soap, extra arrows, wheat and soba flour, hen's eggs, olives, and other preserved foods and consumables that last for a while, and it'll largely come in handy on the next time we explore the dungeon I'm sure.

We returned to the surface and after heading towards the Baldoggie cart that Murowa took over from us, the {Exterminators} were already there biting into Baldoggie. Zulu was pleasantly talking with the Laios sis that was acting as the sales clerk about something in a corner of the plaza. Well, it's fine though.

I bit into one of the spicy gems that is the type with chili in it as I contributed to Murowa's sales. Different from the {Slaughterers} cart which only had children Murowa's cart was serving beer as well. After all you've gotta have some beer with sausage right. Though it's not chilled. It might just be my imagination but I feel like the Murowa cart has a lot of customers. Ah, I guess it's because there's 30 of us?

Year 7446, Month 8, Day 16

After taking a three day break, we're entering the dungeon once again.

Since we have the support of an abundance of supplies this time and we can get a replenishment of fresh food if we just return to the 6th floor so we've planned to stay inside for two and a half weeks(half a month). We won't come out until the end of the month.

It means we'll be spending two consecutive weeks on the 9th floor.

Furthermore, on just the final day August 30th, we'll finish things up in the morning and during the break after that I've already said that Miduchi and I would be going to the company in the capital.

Miduchi reluctantly accompanied the {Butchers} while Angela obediently accompanied the {Exterminators} as they support the exploration of the {Slaughterers}.

I told Cathy to properly take a three day break one week later(Of course she doesn't need to go to the trouble of returning to Baldukk), and tore her and Basutoral apart who were clinging all over each other to the end.

"Then, everyone, let's go."

Year 7446, Month 8, Day 17

We've arrived at the teleport room on the 6th floor.

I was just a bit worried about it but all of our precious supplies were fine without any abnormalities.

Tomorrow we'll go up to the teleport crystal on the 8th floor and after beating the Mino and leaving our bags we'll return back to here again.

And then after carrying some more bags again it's necessary to take them to the 8th floor.

If possible I'd like to catch the Mino off guard so we need to return within 17 hours.

For that sake, we'll move under the assumption that we're going to arrive deep in the 8th floor before tomorrow evening and return right away.

And then, without resting we'll clear through the 7th floor in the middle of the night and then get some rest in the teleport room on the 7th floor.

If it's possible then I ideally intend on moving to the teleport room on the 8th floor without resting and then taking a slow break after that.

Even if we end up losing some time in the worst case I don't even mind if we waste one day though.

Year 7446, Month 8, Day 18

We departed for the 7th floor at 5 in the morning.

Because we had good teleport luck, we managed to arrive at the teleport room on the 7th floor at 8 in the morning.
