“I don’t know whether to be impressed, or appalled.”

I watched Miyoshi dip into the shadow pit again, this time in full-on relaxation mode, leaning back in a chair, engaged in running a handful of other tests now that she’d proved Arthur Space’s use in hunting.

Still reclining, Miyoshi fired her spray bottle at a slime, then dipped into the shadow pit while Cavall searched for the next one, bringing Miyoshi back up right in front of it.

From a distance, it looked like Miyoshi was repeatedly defeating slimes and teleporting in her chair. I could hardly contain my laughter.

“With Mitsurugi’s monklike dedication to running back and forth to the entrance, I don’t think we’d ever really have to worry about her defeating too many slimes, but if this technique ever catches on, three hundred in a day is going to be a low count!” Miyoshi shouted.

“‘Monklike’? But if anything, maybe we should let her in on the routine?”

“Maybe. But then maybe we should think about summoning more Arthurs.”

Our current four hellhounds were divided between protecting the two of us and guard duty at the office, with the fourth remaining on standby should anything happen. In a pinch, we wouldn’t have any to spare.

With Miyoshi’s INT stat, increasing their numbers would be possible, but we didn’t know for sure that increasing their numbers wouldn’t divide their strength, weakening each individual accordingly. At the very least, it seemed like it would require testing. However, that was easier said than done.

“Although, this method does have its downsides,” Miyoshi commented.

According to Miyoshi, your view of your surroundings was cut off every time you were dropped into the shadow pit, and when it returned, you were in a completely different spot from before. The effect could be disorienting.

“Plus, according to Cavall, it chews through MP,” she added.

The least mentally exhausting for Miyoshi, and apparently least draining on the Arthurs’ MP, was the method of dropping her into the shadow pit for a split second, then returning her to the same spot. After that, it was simply a matter of finding and walking up to the next slime, same as we’d been doing before, only with the benefit of the experience-point reset. The world around you would go dark for a moment after defeating each slime, but it was no different, in terms of sensation, from a long blink.

“I thought it would feel like free-falling, but even the drop is okay,” Miyoshi explained.

She had been expecting that sinking feeling in her stomach, but apparently it felt more like being wrapped in darkness from the sides.

If Arthur Space were a separate plane from ours, I supposed it could be considered a form of movement—and in reality it might have been. Like the entrances to the dungeons themselves, even if the connection seemed seamless, the shadow pit may have acted as a link to a different area. Although as far as how to manipulate that link, only the Arthurs themselves knew.

“Still...”

While watching Miyoshi’s shadow-pit-assisted slime-hunting, I kept an eye on her SP intake using Making.
