Chapter 124 : What Gabby demands from us was as I predicted from the thing she said so far.“If I win

What Gabby demands from us was as I predicted from the thing she said so far.

“If I win, please kindly remove yourself from the junior a.s.sistant position. And YOU! You have to do a dogeza and apologize to me for your disrespect so far! !”

“Haaa? Then if I win please dogeza to me as well. Hey Takioto-san! This Drill is saying whatever she wants again, don’t you feel anything? Please do something about her.”

“Well, I will win this anyway so…..”

“Goshujin-sama winning is only natural.”

“KIIIIIIII! It’s the first time someone has insulted me this far!”

“……..somehow, this is getting more exciting huh♪”

Commented, the main cause of all this, Lord Benito with a smile like this has nothing to do with him.

There’s a mountain worth of things I want to say to him but that’s not what I should be doing right now.

“Now then, it’s about the rules…..do I have to explain it?”

There are only a few rules. The three of us will dive into the dungeon at the same time to capture it. The first person who arrives on the fifth floor which s.h.i.+on-san is waiting for us, win. There’s no limitation on the weapons and items. If it gets dangerous you can use the item to flee the dungeon.

I think it is very simple.

Why the fifth floor? It is probably because everyone has to gather for the floor boss on that floor.

This dungeon The [Twilight Road], is a dungeon that has multiple capture routes.

There are four transfer magic circles that can send you to the next floor. The four magic circles each have their own destination on a different floor so we basically won’t encounter each other. Depending on the route it is possible to meet the other though.

The only exception for that is on the boss’s floor. Since all the routes converge on that floor, the fifth floor was chosen as the goal.

s.h.i.+on-san is probably waiting for us at the safety zone in front of the boss room.

“Yes, we will be fine. I, Yuika, and Gabriella will each enter the dungeon via a separate magic circle and capture it. Then we have to meet s.h.i.+on-san who will be waiting for us on the fifth floor in order to win right?”

The fifth floor should be easy enough. Both for me and the girls.

Well, in terms of compatibility. They are far more advantageous against the monsters inside this dungeon than me in the first place.

“Un, you will be fine……Then, we are already late so, Shall we. s.h.i.+on-chan should already arrive at the goal by now too. Let’s head to the dungeon entrance.”

With that said, Lord Benito walks to the magic circle and enter it.

“Just imagining you crawling on the ground already put a smile on my face! OHoHoHo!”

“I wonder who will end up crawling in the end.”

We followed Lord Benito and enter the [Twilight Road].

I touch the wall inside and wait for Yuika. Perhaps Nanami wants to confirm something, she looks at several magic circles there and talks about something with Lord Benito.

I confirm that Yuika and Gabby enter the magic circle and follow behind them.

“I wonder how I should pick these magic circles……”

“Fuh, I will be fine anyway so I will choose the rightmost one!”

It was when Gabby said that with a smile.

Gabby stumble on the uneven ground and reaches for a wall to balance herself.

“Ara!”

“Tsk, and it would be fine if you could just roll over too……..!”

“What did you say……………?”

Gabby tried to complain to Yuika with an angry expression but she couldn’t finish her sentence.

GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO, echoes the noise as if something heavy falling and the ground starts to shake. Everyone besides myself and Nanami must be panicking right now. They must be wondering what just happened.

Immediately after the ground started to shake, something like magic circles with numerous characters appeared under Yuika and Gabby’s feet.

“HII”

Gabby must have lost her balance again with all this shaking. As if she aimed for it, Gabby stepped on one of the characters on the floor. Then Yuika who is nearby also stepped on one beneath her feet.

They stepped on five letters and the sound of fanfare resounded.

“Seriously!”

I muttered in surprise.

However, there’s no time to be surprised. The magic circles under Gabby’s feet have already been activated and the particles of light are floating up like fireflies.

Yup, no doubt about it, it is the transfer magic circle to the hidden floor.

Pitifully, Yuika who was nearby was also dragged into it. She is staring at me while being wrapped up in the light.

So it ended up happening after all.

I was almost certain that this would happen that’s why I try to remain close to them as much as possible.

“GABRIELLA.”

The moment I jumped into the light, Lord Benito’s voice echoes inside the cave. Hearing his voice, a thought came to me when I was being swallowed up by the light.

That’s rare. Seeing Lord Benito startled like that.

My sight is wrapped in light.

The last thing I saw before that happened was Nanami bowing to me as if trying to say [Have a safe trip].

Gabriella Evangelista is, in a way, a character that always answers your expectations.

As her looks suggest, she always laughs with OHoHoHo, the same goes for her personality, and above all, she also meets your expectations inside battle.

In a way, I think she also answered my expectation this time as well.

I don’t think anyone would just simply push a b.u.t.ton on a wall and correctly pressing the key in the magic circle that would activate it on coincidence, that’s not something any normal human being could do. Still, if it’s Gabby or that debtful-sensei (Luigia) then they would surely be able to do it. Was it their charm(?) that made me think that they can do it?

Well, there’s nothing at the destination of the magic circle. It is just the hidden floor of this dungeon.

The events so far were within my expectations. That’s why I tried to be as close to Yuika and Gabby as I could. Depending on the case I would have Nanami stay with them. That’s why I made it in time.

However, if there was anything unexpected then it would be their mood after the transfer took place.

“GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

Suddenly wrapped in the feeling of weightlessness, I was startled for a moment but I immediately look for the two of them. As I located them, I extended the stole toward the girls.

As we fall, Yuika grabbed on to the stole herself, while I have to wrap it around Gabby to catch her.

Immediately after I got both of them, I pulled them together and spread my arms wide, MUSCLE PARACHUTE……not that, I spread out the stole.

I feel that the fall speed has decreased a little but if we keep falling like this we can’t avoid collision with the ground.

I have to protect them, I cast body strengthening magic while Yuika cast defense buff for me.

Honestly, I am impressed. She was screaming on top of her lungs before but it seems her head is still working in such a situation. This is in contrast with Gabby who keeps screaming and clings to her white panties. But that Gabby is still cute.

But why did Yuika only cast the buff magic on me?

No, it’s not like I don’t know the reason though, it must be that huh. [Do something Takioto-san] or something on that line.

I immediately expand my stole to the limit and shape it in the image of a parachute. The falling speed decreased further. With this, we should be able to endure the impact. Or so I thought but it seems I don’t have to worry about that. The moment we landed, my feet bent and the shock didn’t reach my body.

It seems my feet acted as a cus.h.i.+on of sorts.

To describe the feeling it would be like a water balloon. Landed on the slime-filled floor, I hold the two of them up with my stole, move away from this weird landing place and let them down.
