An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 72

Episode 072 D-class dungeon cannot be underestimated

 

 Luck and I move in the shadows and rush towards the first monster in the forest dungeon.

 

“What kind of monster will the first one be?”

 

“Won.”

 

“Will it drop some delicious items? Is it that kind of monster?”

 

 When I talk to Luck with expectations in my heart, Luck seems to look forward to a delicious meal from the monsters and is taking little notice of my feelings.

 

 We approach the signs of the nearest monster with no one around.

 

 After walking for a few minutes, I saw the first monster. It was a big mantis.

 

“Gishashashashasha.”

 

 It wanders through the woods looking for something, while making an unpleasant sound.

 

“It doesn't seem to be delicious?”

 

“Kuuun …”

 

 When I giggled after looking at Luck's face, it looked sad.

 

“Well, it can't be helped. Let's attack.”

 

“Won.”

 

 When I got ready to fight, the depressed Luck immediately switched to combat mode. Luck moved the shadows to the ground just behind the big mantis, and I jumped out of the shadow and hit it.

 

-Paaan

 

“Huh?”

 

 When I hit it, it still burst.

 

 Perhaps the enemy on the first floor of D-rank is not much different from E-rank.

 

“Isn't the enemy on the first floor weak?”

 

“Won.”

 

“That's right. It's the same as Shushima.”

 

 Luck says it's no different from Shushima.

 

 Yeah, the strength hasn't changed.

 

“For the time being, should we fight at random?”

 

“Won.”

 

 We tried to defeat the monsters on the first floor, but they all burst.

 

“Hmm, should we go to the next floor?”

 

“Wowon.”

 

 When I was wondering if we should go to the next floor, Luck pulled the hem of my clothes.

 

 Is there something you want to convey?

 

 Ah, that's what it is …

 

“Ah, we don't have much time? Should we go to the second floor for the time being?”

 

“Won.”

 

 The time was already around 08:00.

 

 But I think we can go to the next floor.

 

 It doesn't matter if I cut my sleep short for one day at worst.

 

 These days, I feel refreshed even if I sleep for just an hour.

 

 I was wondering if I could extend the search time a little more.

 

 It may be just right.

 

 We went straight to the stairs.

 

“It's a staircase in a forest somewhat like an historic ruins, somehow, I'm a little excited!!”

 

“Woowoowoowooon.”

 

 A staircase that suddenly appears in the forest. It's as mysterious and exciting as the forest in a cave.

 

 Luck is also howling while agreeing with me.

 

 Luck and I go down the stairs while holding back our excitement. The space between the floors was the same as the cave when entering the dungeon.

 

“Whaaa!?”

 

 After going down for a while, the view suddenly opens up and a forest appears around us. Looking around, I was standing at the top of a disappearing stairwell, with the steps thinning along the way.

 

“Dungeon stairs are too mysterious …”

 

 I witnessed the wonders of the dungeon and muttered unintentionally.

 

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

“Kyaaaaaaaaa!!”

 

 However, I hear a woman screaming as if pouring water on our excited mood.

 

 I can't leave it alone.

 

“Luck!!”

 

“Won!”

 

 In response to my voice, Luck and I sink into the shadows and move seriously in the direction of the scream.

 

 When we arrived in about 10 seconds, I saw a humanoid monster holding a young woman's neck with one hand and lifting her. Besides that monster, there were many similar signs on this floor, all of which seemed to have greater power than the monsters on the first floor.

 

 As soon as Luck sees the scene, he moves around behind the monster.

 

“Stooooooop!”

 

-Paaan

 

“Guwaaaaaaaaa!!”

 

 This guy … It didn't burst with my punch!!

 

 I did hit it, but when I hit the arm holding the young woman, only that part burst. Other than that, it was intact. It's a stronger enemy than usual, if not as much as Luck.

 

 It's more responsive than the Shushima Dungeon!!

 

“Stay right there!!”

 

“Y, yes.”

 

“Luck, protect this person!!”

 

“Won.”

 

 The young woman nods at my words and is crouching on the spot, so I left her to Luck and I ran to the monster whose arm was blown off.

 

 

 The monster is talking to me. But I don't know what it is saying.

 

 What!! The world is wide, maybe there are monsters who speak words. However, they are enemies of human beings. Don't hesitate.

 

“There's no use arguing!!”

 

 I sneak in close and punch the monster that yells and threatens me. The opponent can't do anything, and when it receives my fist, a big hole appeared in that part.

 

However, the opponent wasn't going to just sit around, and it attacked me while I was making a big hole in its chest. It attacked with a flame from its mouth.

 

“Whoa.”

 

 Immediately after punching it, I couldn't dodge and thought I was hit directly by the flame.

 

“What? Nothing?”

 

“”Gyaaaaaaaaaa!!””

 

 The monster in front of me was engulfed in flames and suffered.

 

 Chance!!

 

 I punched it repeatedly as soon as I saw a chance.

 

 Even the D-rank monster couldn't withstand it and burst.

 

“Hmm … I can't underestimate the D-rank dungeon …”

 

“U, umm ~.”

 

 When I defeat the monster and pick up the magic stone, I was called out to from behind.

 

 By the way, did I help someone?

 

 When I looked back, I saw a girl standing there.

 

“Oh, yes. Anyway, I'm glad you're safe.”

 

“Thank you for your help.”

 

 When I reply, she bows to me.

 

 Hmmm. That was certainly stronger than the mantis. This girl may still be less skilled because she came to the D-rank dungeon faster than me.

 

 For the time being, this girl will be okay.

 

“That was a disaster, wasn't it. Well then, because I'm in a hurry. I'm off.”

 

“Oh, thank you so much!!”

 

 There are many other signs of slightly stronger monsters, so I started running towards those places.

 

 Fufufu. Wait for me, monsters that don't burst in one punch!!

 

 At the end, the girl said something, but I think I don't have to worry about it. I then kept fighting the slightly stronger humanoid monsters.

 

 Every individual counterattacked me. Until now, there was no challenge, but if they fight back, it's worth doing. Some enemies regenerated themselves, and I had a little trouble defeating them. Just a little.

 

“D-rank dungeon monsters can't be underestimated!!”

 

 Thinking about the enemies on the third floor and beyond, I finished today's exploration and headed out of the dungeon.
