Slave Harem in the Labyrinth of the Other World Chapter 182

Hypnosis.

“This is a souvenir for you.”

As I was leaving, the Duke gave me a souvenir.

Two of them.
It seems to be the same stuff as they had in the lodge of the Empire Liberation Society.

Did he get it from the lodge?
Is this stuff from the same brewery?

“Thank you.”
“It will be good to drink on a special occasion.”

The Dwarf Killer was probably prepared for Sherry.

Was he upset that Sherry had not drunk the Dwarf Killer during the dinner?
That’s how a Japanese person thinks, but maybe that’s not the case here?

What will he do when we come again in four days?

Well, he wouldn’t have given it to us as a souvenir had he wanted to use it again in four days.
There won’t be any in four days?

“Then, I’ll see you again.”

I passed the jars to Sherry, and we returned to the house.

I didn’t skip my enjoyment before sleeping, of course.

After breakfast the next day, I went to the Merchant’s Guild.
I called Luke at the reception desk, and went to the meeting room.

“This is the Sheep Monster Card.”
“Sure.”

I paid the successful bid amount of 4,300 Nars and received the Sheep Monster Card.

“Also, a broker came to make an offer after my successful bid yesterday. He has a Sheep Monster Card; he’d like to offer for 5,000 Nars.”
“Another one?”

This kind of thing happens as well?

If you have leftover cards, then you can sell them to someone who has made a successful bid.
I can succeed in fusion, though, with just the monster card I bought.

“It’s not a bad deal since you won’t have to pay me the commission.”

Even with a bid of 4,300 I have to pay 500 Nars to Luke as commission.
The total is 4,800 Nars, so if I’m offered one for 5,000 Nars then it’s only a 200 Nars increase.

“Then, there’s nothing in it for you?”
“I do this as a standard service.”

Maybe he will get a kickback?

Should I accept a 200 Nars increase then?

“So, that’s how it is, huh? I will buy the card then.”

“It’s fine. I’ll buy it no matter if I succeed or fail.”
“I understand. I’ll prepare it today. Please come again tomorrow morning.”

I let him know I’ll buy it, and then leave the Merchant’s Guild.

I have no choice but to use a Rapier?
I purchased a Rapier and a Steel Sword from the weapons shop before returning.

When I returned to the house, I passed two monster cards and a Rapier to Sherry.
Sherry fused them without worry.

“A Rapier of Hypnosis? As expected of Sherry.”

It seems that a Rapier that is fused with Kobold and Sheep Monster Cards is called a Rapier of Hypnosis.
The [Hypnosis] skill is attached to it.

“Thank you.”
“Then, this is for Roxanne.”

I passed the Rapier of Hypnosis to Roxanne.

“Even though I already had a Rapier.”

“Yes, Master. Thank you very much.”

Roxanne accepts it with gratitude.
It couldn’t be helped because there were no skill slots on the Rapier Roxanne had used up until now.

“Vesta, take this.”

I handed the steel sword which I had bought for a 30% discount to Vesta.

“Is it good?”

“Okay. Thank you.”

Vesta gladly receives it.

Roxanne is looking at her sword with rapture.
Is she that happy?

“I’m glad you like it. It’s thanks to Sherry as well.”

“What do you mean?”
“There’s a theory that you can use really strong beast attacks against sleeping demons, so the wolfkin tribe have a really strong desire for weapons that cause sleep.”

Sherry informed me in a quiet voice when I tilted my head.

[Beast attack] is the skill of the Beast Warrior job, which is the racial job of the wolfkin tribe.
The incantation required is long, but it’s possible to use it anyway against a sleeping target.

It’s probably a good match up to have a Beast Warrior with a weapon that causes sleep.

Sherry knew this and it may have been part of the reason she recommended the Sheep Monster Card for Roxanne’s weapon.

It’s good.
I quietly pat Sherry’s head.

Miria has the role of causing abnormal status in our party.

Roxanne wouldn’t have complained, but she might have been bottling up inside.
It’s best to have used it on Roxanne’s sword first.

“Well, shall we go to the labyrinth then?”

Roxanne who was looking longingly at her sword jumped up, and we went to Quratar’s 27th floor.

Just as I thought of it, Roxanne starts heading in a different direction.

“Here. There’s some nearby.”

There seems to be a demon nearby.

It’s a Cape Carp, two Scissor Lizards and a Black Frog.

[Thunder Storm], [Dirt Storm], and [Sand Storm]. I launched a barrage of three spells.

Instead, I am using Wizard.
The other four start running as well.

Roxanne runs holding her Rapier of Hypnosis.

Roxanne takes on the two Scissor Lizards in the center, and Vesta is taking on the Black Frog on the left.
Roxanne pierces a Scissor Lizard with her Rapier.

The demon’s movements did not stop from the first blow.

Roxanne avoids the swing of their scissors and then launches a counter attack.
It’s also useless?

The first Scissor Lizard was stopped by my next lightning magic.

Its scissors swung down weakly.

It seems to have fallen asleep.

It’s still standing, but it’s hanging it’s arms and head down.
That’s how it is?

Roxanne attacked the Black Frog which Vesta was fighting next.

It’s best to pay attention to the demons that can still move.

“I did it, desu!”

Miria’s taken care of the Cape Carp.

She skillfully got to the far side of the opponents.

“Thunderstorm.”

I gave a warning that I was using magic.

It would be difficult for those nearby if it wakes up.

The Scissor Lizard wakes up when it is hit by my magic.

Actually, because I hit it with a barrage of three spells, it just fell over.
Both Scissor Lizards are defeated.

We concentrate our attacks on the remaining Black Frog.

She doesn’t say anything, so it seems to be paralysis.

Paralysis is enough.

The demons are totally annihilated.

Sleep proc’d once. I wonder how useful the Rapier of Hypnosis will be.

There was only one paralysis from my lightning magic this time as well.
Sometimes, that’s how it is.

“You’re right Sherry, things will be easier with sleep.”

“It’s too bad we can’t use Beast Attack.”

When I spoke to Sherry, Roxanne also joined the conversation.

“It’s because we also need recovery.”
“Yes. Please leave the recovery to me.”

I needed to keep Roxanne’s job as Shrine Maiden, so it can’t be helped.
Roxanne doesn’t seem to fuss about not having Beast Warrior at least.

“Is it hard to work out which demon to attack?”

When sleep procs, it becomes a little complicated to work out which demon to attack.
My magic cancels the effect as well.

“There’s no problem.”

I’ll just leave it to the vanguards?

Sleep seems to be similar in frequency to the paralysis caused by my lightning magic.
But Roxanne is only fighting one demon. [Thunder Storm] attacks all demons. The chance of sleep might be higher than my paralysis.

It’s easy to see they’ve fallen asleep when they droop their heads.

There’s good points and bad points.
Even so, our war potential has gone up.

“We’ve repeatedly fought the boss of the 27th floor again. Does everyone think it’s fine if we go against the boss of the 28th floor tomorrow?”

“I don’t think there’s any problem.”

“I think it’s safe.”

I checked with them at supper, but there were no cautious opinions.

Sherry’s just started to drink some Dwarf Killer, but she’s not drunk yet, so there shouldn’t be any problem with her judgement.

The time after supper was wonderful, since Sherry emptied two jars of Dwarf Killer, and Roxanne had been in a good mood all day.

I’m glad.
I have this place to come back to.

The next morning, we entered the boss room of Quratar’s 28th floor.

After using [Abnormal Status Resistance Down] on the Cyclops Miria was facing I used two [Thunder Storm]’s.
Wind magic might be better, but I’m using lightning magic with the aim of the abnormal status effects.

One Cyclops was paralyzed by the lightning magic.

After two more lightning spells, I put [Abnormal Status Resistance Down] on the boss.

Roxanne was taking on the boss.

Even though we fought the boss on the 27th floor many times yesterday, it was never affected by sleep.
Like sleep, the effect of paralysis from my lightning magic is also rare.

Normally, these effects are probably rather rare until the effects of my [Abnormal Status Resistance Down] and Assassin’s [Abnormal Status Chance Up] effects combine.

Well, it’s done now.

“I did it, desu!”

Miria left the paralyzed Cyclops, and petrified the boss.

Things are still getting harder, though.
We can’t relax.

The Cyclops which Vesta was taking on was paralyzed by lightning magic, and the Cyclops that had been paralyzed previously begins to move again.

The Cyclops shuts its eye and hangs its head.

Sleep.
The effect of [Abnormal Status Resistance Down] shows again, it’s a single blow.

“Thunderstorm.”

I gave a warning, and shot lightning magic.

Has a reason.
It’s different from 8th grade syndrome.

Sleep getting cancelled by my magic attacks is quite troublesome.

As the Cyclops wakes up, he becomes silent at once because of Miria.
Miria petrifies it. Only one is left now.

It seems like there’s no problem fighting against the boss on the 28th floor either.

At least, until the 33rd floor.

The demon on Quratar’s 29th floor seems to be the Moloch Taurus.

We’ll have to be careful.

The Lv29 Moloch Taurus doesn’t cause any problems for us.

I still can’t understand if the skill [Progressive Increase in Damage] is effective.
It might be effective, but I don’t know.

Since I can set Jobless’s skill to Intermediate Water Magic, which is Moloch Taurus’s weakness, it becomes easier to explore the 29th floor.

The combination of demons on the 29th floor is different to other labyrinths.

Especially, if paralysis proc’s when there are a large number of demons.

We hunt through the morning, and then I go to the Merchant’s Guild after breakfast.
When I call for Luke, he comes out at once.

“The other party is waiting at the guild shrine. I’ll leave after I’ve introduced you, so feel free to make a deal as you wish.”

Oh. The guild shrine.

I’ll have to pay 100 Nars to use it.
That makes the total price increase 300 Nars.
