e and find whether there’s another floor below us.

 

Inside this unfamiliar dungeon, I tired to go find my way back to the entrance.

It’s as if my first time coming into the dungeon and I was slightly lost.

 

Gashak.

 

There was a sound from behind.

I wonder if someone from the villagers came inside the dungeon.

 

[———-!]

 

Suddenly someone or something started attacking me.

A black shadow slashed towards me, I could see a blunt blade being reflected as it drew an arc and attacked me.

It wasn’t a monster!

 

I grabbed the hilt of the blade and body blowed the person holding it.

It might be a human, or more specifically at least it had a human shape.

 

The opponent’s body bent into a “<” shape and it’s movement stopped.

Was what I thought when he released the blade and and tried to grab something inside its pocket as if trying to do something, I immediately reacted and did a left hook on it’s face.

 

The black shadow thrusted into the wall and crumbled as it was.

After looking at it closely, it was indeed a human being.

 

[An Assassin?] (Ryouta)

 

That word came up in my mind without thinking.

The blade that I robbed from the black shadow was apparently a sharp blade called Aikuchi, and it suddenly attacked me with from the shadow.

It was an orthodox assassin.

 

Assassination? Towards me?

…..But why?

 

When questions kept popping up one after another, I thought it’s better to catch him first before he escaped, when suddenly.

 

The dungeon’s structure has changed!

 

When I was trying to catch the assassin, the structure suddenly changed, and I was separated from the opponent.

 

[…….This timing, it’s definitely not a coincidence.] (Ryouta)

I don’t know what I’ve done but intuitively I understand that they don’t want me to find out who they are.

I don’t know whether it was something being sent or I was being monitored, but that cannot be a mere coincidence as the timing of when I was trying to catch it, the dungeon’s structure changed.

 

[Should I go search for him, no wait Alice is still waiting for me at the entrance.] (Ryouta)

 

If the dungeon’s structure changed that means someone must’ve come in.

Then doesn’t that mean Alice who was at the entrance was in danger.

 

I quickly ran around the unfamiliar dungeon.

There were times when the little devils appeared but I ignored them since even if they were to attack me my HP and Endurance is at S.

 

After running for around five minutes I saw the entrance of the dungeon.

 

[Alice!] (Ryouta)

[Ryouta!] (Alice)

[Are you alright?] (Ryouta)

[Yeah, I’m alright.
What’s more a weird person was running away just now.] (Alice)

[It ran away?] (Ryouta)

[Yeah, someone suddenly came flying out while I was trying to go in, and afterwards two more came out and scattered as they escaped.] (Alice)

[You let them go?] (Ryouta)

[What do you mean?] (Alice)

[They were trying to attack me, no assassinate me.] (Ryouta)

[Assassination!? Ah but, if I’m not mistaken they look…..] (Alice)

 

After being surprised, Alice quickly remembered their appearance.

Yes, it’s better to remember what they wore so we can find them.

But the problem is who? And for what reason.

 

Not being able to catch me must’ve hurt.

 

[Hey Ryouta, your body seems to be shining?] (Alice)

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

 

When Alice pointed it out, it certainly looked like my body was shining.

To be exact, it was flashing red right under my clothes.

Thus I took it out and figure out what it was.

 

[Tears of Slime……] (Ryouta)

[Isn’t it where it would counter the opponent’s damage.] (Alice)

[Yeah, it was a drop from the High Guts Slime, and when I turned it into a rogue slime it dropped this…..So this light meant the effect happened?] (Ryouta)

 

I stared at the Tears of Slime and observed what the light meant.

 

[…..Alice, where did those bastards escaped?] (Ryouta)

[Etto, there and there.] (Alice)

 

Alice said while pointing at two opposite directions.

With the Tears of Slime, I first chose one side, and the blinking of the light delayed for a moment.

This time I head towards the other side, and the blinking suddenly gotten faster.

[What does that mean?] (Alice)

[Perhaps….it’s a tracker to track its opponent.] (Ryouta)

 

I decided to pursue those buggers while it was flashing quickly.

 

 

[Did you fail?]

[I’m so sorry!]

[Hmm, that brat is stronger than I expected.
I thought it was some new emerging family but it looks like they are quite formidable.]

[What should we do?]

[Was your face seen? Were you being followed?]

[He did not see and we were hidden the whole time.]

[If that’s the case then go hide for awhile, and think about the next plan.

[I understand—–Mu.]

[What’s wro—–Eh?]

 

The two men who were talking in the forest noticed abnormality of their bodies.

Both of them were tied up in something that was shining on their bodies.

 

[What the hell….what the hell is this?]

[I can’t move…..what’s going on?]

 

The two of them were desperately trying to escape from the light rope, but the more they struggle, the tighter it got.

 

[So that’s what it is.]

[Who is it!!]

 

I slowly approached the man who asked who I was.

I then placed my guns down and walked to them slowly.

Because of my Enhanced Bullet imbued with the Restraining Bullet, I don’t think the two of them can escape for a really long time.

 

[Satou……Ryouta.]

 

As the light shine on the man’s face, it revealed the face of Samechiren’s dungeon association chief.

And the person beside him who was being held was the black shadow who attacked me earlier.

 

[In other words, you were the one who sent them to kill me?] (Ryouta)

[Wh, what are you saying.]

[Well, well, well, trying to feign ignorance heh.
Well it’s alright, since I’m bad at this.
Alice.] (Ryouta)

[Un!] (Alice)

 

Alice who followed along stood side by side.

 

[Head back to the village and call Clint over, he will be good with negotiating.] (Ryouta)

[All right!] (Alice)

 

Alice nodded and immediately ran.

Only leaving me, and the two who were restrained.

 

The dungeon association chief of Samechiren had a pale face which made it all the more interesting.
