Episode 144: Self-proclaimed low-rank explorer and common sense people

"Ah, Onii-chan, Mino-chan came out a lot."

"Aah. They came here because there are so many people."

When Nanami sees the Black Minotaurs come out, she points and smiles carelessly like seeing an animal in a zoo.

If you kill a lot of these guys, you might get Black Minotaur Meat. It's crawling on the first floor, so I want to defeat them more and more.

"Eeh!? A group of Black Minotaurs!?"

"L, let's run away."

However, for some reason, the two try to escape from the Black Minotaurs.

"What are you talking about? You can defeat such a weak monster."

"Hmm."

"If the two of you won't do it, we'll take them."

While the two of them stiffened, Shia and I rush forwards and approach the herd of Black Minotaurs.

"Sei."

"Fuu."

Me and Shia unleash our attack.

-Papapapapapaaan

-Supapapapapapaaan

A mountain of magic stones is created in no time.

"Oh. It's a good start. Two Black Minotaur Meat came out. Shall we take one each?"

"Hold Fu-kun."

"I see. Then I'll hang onto it."

"Hmm."

"In return, please give me one more magic stone."

"Hmm."

We have a brief exchange, finish distributing the loot, and return to the other three.

"What's wrong, you two?"

"I wonder if I'm dreaming ..."

"It must be ..."

"Something is wrong with the two of them."

"Really."

When we came back, Amane and Rei were dumbfounded and looking into the distance, and Nanami was perplexed.

For the time being, I bring the two who are dazed, and Shia and I take turns defeating the large weakling monsters including Black Minotaurs on the first floor.

"Well, Ahahahaha ... I didn't think my level would go up like this."

"Even I'm going up ... Ahahahaha."

The two of them are still looking somewhere with dry smiles on their faces.

"How long are you two going to be dumbfounded? Let's go upstairs."

"That's right!! It's hard to drag you and walk!!"

Nanami and I urge the two of them.

"Eh, aah, yeah. Okay."

"I understand."

The two of them seem to have regained their composure, and follow us slowly.

"Hey, Onii-chan. I want to fight too."

Nanami says such a thing when we arrive at the second floor.

"Hmm? Really. You haven't fought properly even once."

"Yes."

"Okay. What do you think, Shia?"

Come to think of it, Nanami didn't do anything in the stray dungeon or here. There will certainly be problems in the future.

Therefore, I ask Shia whether there would be any problem if Nanami fights.

"Nanamin, use magic. We will protect you."

"Aah ~, I see. Then there's no problem."

That's right. Nanami should attack with magic for the time being, and once she's leveled up enough to get Shia's approval, it might be a good idea to try close combat.

"Okay, Nanami can attack first from the second floor with magic."

"Hooray!!"

After receiving permission from me, Nanami jumps for joy.

"Okay, Nanami, I'll leave it to you!!"

"Yeah, leave it to me!! 'Absolute Zero'!!"

Nanami readies her staff and chants the name of a magic spell.

Then, a faint white air begins to drift around the swarm of Super Bonus monsters dozens of meters away, and the next moment, all the monsters in that space were frozen.

"Oooh ~ !!"

"Nanamin is amazing."

Shia and I clap excitedly.

"Ehehe, I'm glad it went well."

Nanami scratches her head and smiles embarassedly.

She's used magic several times in trial shots, but this is the first time she's actually fired it at an enemy. Even though it's an E-rank Super Bonus monster, it seems like my Imouto is cheating to freeze them all at once.

-Pariiin

While we were talking, the ice shatters and the magic stones were left behind. That is proof that even Nanami is able to properly defeat the enemy.

"Even so, the power of Nanami's magic is amazing."

"Hmm. It's usually impossible. Thanks to her skill."

"That's right. Even though she's my Imouto, she's gained incredible power."

"Ehehe, I'll do my best with magic from now on!!"

"Yeah. I'm counting on you!!"

Shia and I praise Nanami's skill.

Nanami lifts her cane to her chest and smiles.

"What was that ..."

"I don't know."

"The brother is a monster, but the sister is as well ..."

"Really ..."

The two, who haven't returned to reality yet, are muttering something behind us with dumbfounded faces, but I ignore them.

"It's about time."

"Hmm."

"Yes!!"

We finished exterminating the monsters on the second floor. Looking at the time, it's 7:00 pm. It's time to go home soon.

"Hey, you two, we're going home."

"Eeh, aah, yeah."

"Eh, ah, yes, I understand."

The two people who were out of it from the beginning to the end. We exited the dungeon with these two.

"Speaking of which, do you have any plans for today?"

"Don't have."

"Me either ~."

"Neither do I."

In the park near the dungeon, I confirmed the schedule of the three of them other than Nanami.

"If you don't mind, my mother will be cooking and waiting for us. Why don't you stop by?"

"That's right!! Stop by!!"

Since there are no plans, Nanami and I suggest it.

They'll take care of me from now.

I think I should introduce them to my mother as well.

"Fu-kun mama's cooking is delicious."

"I can't ignore that!! Okay, I'll go!!"

"Phew ... I can't be the only one who doesn't go here. I'll go with you."

"That's good. Well then, this way."

Relieved that everyone was coming, I lead everyone and start walking.
