Ten or so minutes later.

“I didn’t find anything of note.”

“Figures.”

It hadn’t even taken me a second to reply.

“Reyes, you’re the reason stock in adventurers has plummeted.”

He squirmed uneasily under Lulour’s glare and rushed to explain himself.

“N-Not as if I can help it! Do you really expect things to go our way every single time?!”

“Aha... Aha ha ha... You’re absolutely right about that, Reyes. I understand all too well...”

Nell tried to back him up with an awkward smile.

“Goodness, now you have a chit younger than you helping you talk your way out of this. Could you be any more pathetic?”

Lulour sighed in exasperation at him. Realizing he was on the losing end of the argument, Reyes cleared his throat and attempted to change the subject.

“I-In any case! Now we know that our group isn’t going to turn up anything. Why don’t we wait for the holy knights to return?”

“We’ll leave it up to you two since Nell and I are the amateurs here.”

“Yes, I agree. Much wiser for you both to take the lead here, Miss Lulour and Mr. Reyes.”

They glanced at each other.

“Hmm... I think we should continue searching for a bit longer. We’ll be just fine should we run into any enemies.”

“‘Just fine’ is an understatement considering we’ve hardly lifted a finger yet. Not to mention that plenty of energy remains in me. Mask, Nell, can we count on you two for combat support a mite longer?”

“Roger that. We’ll be even worse thorns in the demon lord’s side— Oh, hey, looks like we’re getting the chance to do that earlier than I thought.”

While talking, I lowered Goumetsu from my shoulder and swung it in front of me.

“Nell, get ready.”

“G-Got it!”

She must’ve sensed it too because she immediately unsheathed her holy sword while wearing a grim expression.

“Is it the enemy?”

“Based on their reactions, I would say so, yes. Perhaps troublesome ones to boot.”

Reyes and Lulour eased into fighting stances too. Our postures alerted them to the abnormal change in the atmosphere.

Both Maps and Scout were warning me of a horde of hostiles. A dungeon monster attack was coming.

◇ ◇ ◇

Most of the monsters were skeletons. I spotted a few wraiths and other undead-types, but a majority of them were bone bastards equipped with swords and shields. The enemy horde had a few dozen giant zombies mixed in too, which were as strong as the skeleton salamander I’d killed earlier.

I figured this meant the demon lord had gotten serious about eliminating the intruders—us. You really went all out for us, huh, Mr. Demon Lord? I’m flattered. Kind of a waste of DP, though, since I’m about to dump everything you spent it on right into the garbage.

“Mr. Wye, how many of them are there?!”

Nell asked me that question while skillfully cutting the oncoming skeletons to pieces. She could see me looking at Maps since my dungeon’s functions were visible to her.

“Around three hundred! Most of them are skeletons, but there are a few War-level monsters mixed in! Don’t drop your guard!”

Reyes, not Nell, reacted to my words.
