Chapter 215: Sadly, the stat boost seems to have had no influence on the intelligence – Part 2

Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Ryunakama”

Free-form, both her weapon and her fighting style are irregular, impossible to grasp, since she is bending backward, spinning around, leaping, and rolling, she is impossible to read, leading to the opponent being captured by her transforming weapon instead. As if in dance she is moving around killing enemies, toying with them, hypnotizing them with her unpredictable movements. If one engages her in combat, thinking that she is a human, they will immediately be hit with an attack from an unexpected position, from an unpredictable stance, and if one tries to attack her, she would bend and twist her body escaping the attack, following it with a counter of her own, luring the opponent into a trap, so it’s also impossible to apply pressure on her. If anything, her fighting style is the most similar to Slime-san. It’s truly terrifying for human opponents.

That’s why it’s better for her to stick with her current weapon. That combination of attacks leaves no room to even change weapons. She has a bow and a sword, but usually fights with the club form. Actually, should I make anti-monster weapons for her? She should be strong enough to handle swords, and a shotel or a khopesh would suit her. She also should be able to put『Windstorm Mace』to a good use, but is it a good idea. She is probably the only person who has a good understanding of her fighting style, so it would be better to directly ask her later. But for some reason, she gets angry when I call her Febreze? Even though that is supposed to be her nickname? I mean, Rhythm Gymnastic Girl is a pretty big mouthful to address someone?

As she got stronger her individuality got stronger too. An assassin-type, more fit for fighting other humans, this makes her unable to keep up with the vanguard lately. That being the case, the vanguard is also getting stronger, but it can also be said that all of this makes coordination with middle guard and mobile units that much more difficult.

There also might be a need to reorganize parties, but forming new ones is a very complicated challenge since for their power they also have strong individualities.

However, the 49th floor is being conquered at a blinding speed. Since this dungeon has many grouping monsters it is possible to turn this into mass warfare and annihilate them in an instant. Seeing that 『Metal Worm Lv 49』are physically resistant, they immediately readied fire magic and purged the place with a single 『Incinerate them!』. But isn’t it an ill omen to make such an order while wearing armor? It’s fine since they won… But there is quite a bad pattern for that? Although it does suit her. [1]

And upon finally reaching the 50th floor, what we found there was, as expected, a floor master, a huge elephant. Well, elephants tend to be huge, but even so, the size of this one makes one think『isn’t this a bit too big?』 Naturally, it also has a very long trunk. No visuals of the mother elephant were confirmed, but it is quite probable that the mamma elephant has a long trunk as well. If the father elephant is the only one with a short trunk it would likely lead to a very heavy and serious family council. Is it where the secret of its birth would be revealed? But it might pass away before the birth secret comes to light. Ah, it went down.

「Encircle! Vanguard, hold it back with shields! Melees to the rear! Ranged at its stomach!」

「「「Taking the front!」」」

「「「We’re taking the back!」」」

「「「Belly group~ Gather up~」」」

It’s decided. But why do the idiots feel so natural hunting that『Blizzard Mammoth Lv50』? It doesn’t feel out of place at all. And I hate myself for not being surprised anymore by the way they pinned the enemy down by throwing spears and then went melee on it with boomerangs. In the first place, those are not javelins, those are halberds, weapons that should be used to directly attack the enemy! And the ones that you are clubbing the elephant-san with are ranged weapons! Also, you lot are swordsmen! Or rather, where did your swords go? I don’t remember seeing them even once lately? You surely wouldn’t tell me that you sold them, right?!

「Nice, way to mammoth~? Actually, this mammoth is really on its way now. Although the reason for it leaving us is a group assault and abuse, is it really the place to mammoth? Like, the way the mammoth went leads to eternal sleep? 」

「「「We are so beat. It was so huge, 2,000 HP is against the rules. And yes, being this much of a mammoth task, this is definitely the way to mammoth.」」」

It wasn’t wrong it seems. So the words 『mammoth task』 were about killing a mammoth. To think that the secret of the words 『mammoth task』would be revealed here, Or was it? Just who came up with that? Primitive man? Neanderthals? When is one supposed to use that? Still a mystery.

「What are you gonna do? I won’t stop you if you want to keep going, but if things get dangerous I’m going to step in, or rather, Armored Pres-san is on the verge of going berserk, this is rather serious? If you won’t let her join in on the fun, you’ll be at a real risk of eternal ONE MORE SET during today’s practice? But if you let her participate, the middle floors will be totally slaughtered leaving nothing for anyone, to which I, personally, am pretty used by now, having a rather lonely time in dungeons, so what will you do?」

「「「「Continue. We think we can handle it.」」」」

You think, huh. Unless they end up in a very bad matchup, beating monsters on 50-60 floors should be a breeze, but since they received a sudden drastic boost to their strength, their cooperation is in a bit of a disarray. It didn’t completely fall apart for now, but adjustments have to be made. I think that practicing versus levels 50 might be a bit tough, but they seem to be very motivated.

「Then, from here on it’s a race to the lower floors, the one who reaches, kills, and gets it first wins and gets it? Kind of? Well… Readysetgo!」

51F, 52F, 53F, 54F, 55F, 56F, and we reach 57F. Instakilling only enemies that blocked my way I make my breakthrough. Still going at high speed, making no effort to decelerate at all, I cut up the nearby monsters as I pass through them. The president and the others must still be on the 51st floor. I thought I’d just go ahead and take the boss on the 60th floor for myself, but finding a hidden room on the 57th floor, decided to check it out. The Appraisal can wait for later. Let’s hurry ahead.

Rush through 58F, pass 59F, and there is the 60th floor. Meanwhile, the president and the others must still be busy with their extermination work on the 51st floor. If it’s about passing through without farming every single monster then it takes only a short while. I mean, Armored Pres-san and Slime-san are even faster than me where it comes to stealing a good part.

「Aaah, should we leave it for them? I mean, they seem to be good with such monsters, and it has appropriate strength? It also doesn’t seem to have anything of value, so how about we go back and pick up the pres and the others? Or rather, I don’t want to charge at that! And the way it moves is so irritating! But it also has such a perfectly adequate level of strength, that instantly killing it seems like a waste? Alright, let’s get everyone, and then push it onto them!」

It was a huge fly. It’s probably going to fight in high-speed air combat. An evasion-based build, susceptible to physical and magical attacks without any special skills, so it’s optimal for the president and the others! We totally aren’t pushing it on others because Armored Pres-san and I are grossed out by the fly and Slime-san is shaking, refusing to eat it! This is the beauty of humility, the spirit of give and take, so we give, give, give, and push it onto them! Alright, let’s go back!

(Nod, nod) (Jiggle, Jiggle)

Yup, unanimous. Oh, just how considerate is everyone? They are brimming with care for others. Definitely. That’s what I decided to think! I mean, flies aren’t going to get hit by Wire Cutter, and insecticides have little effect on them, the second place in 『I want nothing to do with them, ever』ranking, right after cockroaches. And it’s so big and gross! We probably can kill it in one hit, but it’s going to spit juices everyone, I don’t want to cut that. Armored Pres-san already escaped as well. Yes, we are retreating for the sake of our comrades!
