Chapter 33-The "Valley of Death" again and Marina's growth
(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)
We proceeded cautiously through the "valley of death," which had changed slightly.
The terrain itself has not changed. However, the flora, fauna, and monster appear to have been greatly affected by the "Inverted Labyrinth of Tenebrae.
In particular, the appearance of the monsters is very different from the last time we investigated.
Demon monsters have taken root in this world.
And the monsters that are not monsters of this world are invading.
The way they were strutting around, spreading their murderous atmosphere, let us know without hesitation that the "Valley of Death" had already turned into a labyrinth dungeon.
If the labyrinthine dungeon was overflowing with a visible darkness, it was theoretically possible for the surrounding area to have been transformed into a labyrinthine dungeon.
However, this fact indicates that our world is about to collapse.
The timing of our departure was just right.
If we had delayed our departure any longer, La Jo might have been affected by the labyrinthine transformation.
"The route ahead is clear."(Nene)
"How were the monsters?"(Yuki)
I asked Nene, who had returned from her advance warning.
The black monsters crawling toward us from the "Reversed Labyrinth Tenebrae" are few in number, but they are quite formidable.
If possible, I would like to avoid fighting them.
"No problem,but It's rather too quiet."(Nene)
"I see. We may have to hurry a little."(Yuki)
"I'm going to go scout again, so please continue to proceed."(Nene)
Marina, who was listening to the report from the side, tilts her head at the words of Nene and I as Nene run off again.
"Isn't it a good thing if it's quiet."(Marina)
"Hmm? Well, ...... that's both good and bad. The fact that the King's Temple is in such a runaway state and there are so few animals and demon monsters around here means that they could be herding somewhere."(Yuki)
In other words, this is most likely a sign of a stampede.
"Muuu. We have to move on more quickly."(Marina)
"Ah, But we are already in the labyrinth. Let's follow the theory of labyrinth attack dungeon work and go slowly but safely."(Yuki)
"We can't be in a hurry, I understand."(Marina)
Jamie, who seemed to have noticed my gaze, looked at me with a slightly sullen expression.
"Don't worry, I've been trained by the guildmaster for a long time. Even Mamaru-san."(Jamie)
"I'm sorry to hear that, but don't push yourself too hard."(Yuki)
"I don't want to be a burden anymore."(Jamie)
"Don't worry about that, okay? Do you need a reinforcement spell?"(Yuki)
"You're too overprotective! You don't have to spoil me. I can walk on my own two feet! You should be more concerned about Lun."(Jamie)
She don't have to be mad at me.
Well, I guess that means she's grown up since then.
"Lun will be fine. Lun trained a lot with Jamie to become an adventurer!"(Nibelung)
"It's all right then. I'm not talking about just the two of you, but all of us. Don't have any reservation. It's my job as supporter to do whatever I can to help."(Yuki)
My friends laughed at my words.
I was supposed to be rather serious, but I wondered if there was something wrong.
"I don't think he's changed at all. Yuki is still Yuki."(Jamie)
"Onii-chan is still Onii-chan?"(Nibelung)
"......? Did I say something strange?"(Yuki)
Marina finally bursts out laughing at me.
"It's not weird, but it is strange! Because, even though you are "hero," an "apostle of God," and a legendary "one of the walkers," Yuki says he is still a supporter."(Marina)
"I don't care what everyone call me, I'll always do what I do."(Yuki)
No matter what anyone calls me, I am Yuki the Red Mage Warlock.
I don't have the swordsmanship to cut Zagnar's head off with a single stroke, or the magic to create flames like a small sun, or the skill to duck and cover and anticipate danger.
I am only a supporter who is good at supporting those who wield it.
In short, the expectations and prestige placed on me are for "Clover," not for me personally.
However, I realized this only recently ......, just a few days ago.
I was about to be crushed by titles and missions, but I understand now thanks to everyone who pledged to walk next to me.
So I told them I was only a supporter ...... and that was a little strange to them.
"That's fine with Yuki, It's much better than having some kind of weird confidence. Oh, no. I'm almost embarrassed to say it myself."(Jamie)
"I like Jamie, she's easier to talk to than I thought she'd be!"(Marina)
Marina gives Jamie a dash hug.
I'm sorry to laugh at Jamie while she's feeling overwhelmed, but that baptism means she's comfortable with the party.
I was a little worried about Jamie being in the party, but it looks like we're in good shape.
We are a few ticks away from the target point.
I wondered whether or not we should borrow the mounted goat, Mapara, which is necessary for the evacuation of the inhabitants and for Viscount Boardman's emergency escape.
I didn't mention it because I thought it would be too much of a waste of money for us to ride off into the labyrinth.
So far, progress has been smooth. This is not wrong.
'...... Yuki-san!'(Silk)
Silk raises a sharp voice.
At the same time, Marina drew her sword and Rain and Jamie readied their wands.
Naturally, I also pulled out my sword and began to apply the strengthening magic.
If it is this wide, the monsters will come even from outside Nene's advance warning.
This time, Silk and Biblion, who was accompanying her, noticed them.
"There!"(Silk)
An arrow shot quickly through the beast that had leapt out from the cliff, which was in a blind spot.
The preemptive attack by the spirit Biblion foreknowledge and Silk's bow arm is not something that can be avoided.
The attacker must have been in for a rude awakening.
"Gahgigg!"
Marina slices through the giant sand lizard that rolls down the cliff with a scream with a single sword.
Even though she wielded it without using a magic sword, the sand skate was cut in half.
" it's still coming. Its heading right forward!"(Nene)
"Baryonyx! It's a tough one, ......!"(Yuki)
This baryonyx, a monster that looks like a giant version of the Raptor, is a high-ranking monster that shares a home with the Zagnar we fought in the past and fights territorial battles with him.
It is the most ferocious and most dangerous monster among the monsters found in the Valley of Death in Sarumtalia.
"Don't worry! We're growing up too! Yuki!"(Marina)
"Ok! Let the battle begin, everyone! We're not going to lose!"(Yuki)
I shouted out as I gave Marina all the physical enhancement magic I could muster.
TL Note- So character development of Yuki is finally taking place.
