Chapter 19 - Liliruca Arde

As a modern person who lived under the rule, killing was quite unacceptable for Miyuki.

Although he previously made up his mind that this day would come sooner or later. Miyuki still felt uncomfortable after killing someone.

Thankfully, he didn't vomit like some protagonist otherwise Miyuki might be so embarrassed that he wouldn't dare to stand in front of Lili.

Shaking his head and calming down his thoughts, Miyuki lowered his head and looked at dumbfounded Lili in his arms.

He gently put Lili down.

It was only then that Lili react.

Lili never thought that she would be saved in such a dramatic way.

High-level adventurer?

Or is it the same as the Soma family, a guy who eats black people?

After being brutally treated by the previous people and having all her belongings robbed, the girl who was left with only a set of common clothes shrink in the shade as much as possible, not daring to let herself be discovered.

The scene of the adventurer dying before her eyes didn't make her feel much gratitude.

Especially the boy's merciless action made Lili fear that he would kill her too.

Miyuki took out a brass-colored key from Ganu's hand, looked at it for half a second, and said to the girl, "Monsters in the maze are usually born from the walls."

Lili was taken aback by these words and hurriedly moved away from the stone walls that formed the maze.

"My name is Ariyama Miyuki, an adventurer from the Hestia Familia." Seeing the girl's frightened look, Miyuki said lightly.

"Yes... I... My name is Lili, and I am currently a supporter." Lili spoke in a trembling tone.

She folded her arms, except, for the safe floor, the temperature in the labyrinth was colder than the night on the surface.

"You...will you kill me next too?" Lili spoke with a look of fear. She didn't hold out much hope for her survival.

Killing one's own kind, whether on the surface or in the labyrinth below, is strictly forbidden.

She saw the scene of the crime, and it is very likely that she will follow in the footsteps of those scumbags.

"Hehe..." Miyuki smiled and said, "For you, the adventurers in the labyrinth are not trustworthy and seeing me simply kill a few people, it's normal for you to be afraid of me."

"But I'm sorry, I'm not the kind of bloodthirsty lunatic, and you were not moved by the hero after saving the beauty, but fear. This makes me very helpless."

The tense atmosphere gradually subsided.

Then, Miyuki threw the key and the package on the ground to the girl.

When Lili caught the huge package, her body shook.

"Although I don't know much about your life experience, in this world, there are still some people who are kind. Quickly, put on your clothes and packages..." After finishing speaking, Miyuki squatted down, grabbed the collar of the dead orc man, and threw it toward the monster group of killer ants.

After concocting all the corpses in the same way, a ray of flame appeared in the boy's palm and flung it into the crowd of monsters gnawing on the corpses.

Like pouring boiling water into a frying pan.

The small cave quickly ignited a fire, and Lili was surprised by the magic that didn't need change and was not inferior to previous thunder magic.

The scorching heat that hit her face made her dusty little face red.

"If you feel hot, stand behind me..."

Hearing Miyuki's voice the girl obediently stood behind him.

Sure enough, it wasn't that hot anymore.

"Recently, Orario has been spreading rumors about a small human gang that specializes in stealing property from adventurers. If I'm not mistaken, it should be you." Miyuki looked helplessly at Lili and spoke.

Lili hugged her backpack tightly, and her thoughts became confused.

Could it be that he is also an adventurer who has been stolen by herself?

I don't know, I have no impression at all.

"I'm asking you a question."

"...it's me."

"I like honest people." Miyuki nodded and smiled.

If Lily still lies at this time, then there is no need to keep in touch even if he has a good impression of her.

The girl did not understand what Miyuki was talking about.

The swaying fire gradually extinguished, and there was a burning smell.

The props and magic stones dropped by the killer ants are scattered on the ground, waiting for people to pick them up.

"I just needed a supporter to do things for me." Miyuki looked at the dropped props all over the place and said so.

Although the space in the system warehouse is unlimited, the warehouse itself is not smart.

It can't be like the portable space in the hands of some protagonists, which emits light and sucks things in with a swish.

Therefore, when he first broke through the maze, in order to help the system recover he spent a lot of time recovering the monster stones.

What's more, he can't use all the monster stones for the recovery of the system. He still needs some of them to exchange for money, so as to make his life more comfortable.

"The final split will be determined in accordance with market rules, and if you agree, start working." Miyuki finished speaking and looked at Lili.

The girl stared blankly at the young man. After being blackmailed and having one foot in hell, Lili's psychological defense was already very low.

Her frozen chest was sore and hot. She looked at Miyuki with tears in her eyes and said, "Are you really going to hire me? Aren't you afraid I'm a liar? Aren't you afraid I'll lie to you?"

"...Hehe, I have seen this scene. If I still have the guts, I will really admire you." Miyuki looked at Lily for a while and smiled.

Although the words are very rude, they are also true.

"Come on quickly, I am moving very fast." Miyuki walked ahead and called Lili.

Liliruca Arde hates adventurers.

However, because of this day, her wandering from hell to heaven was all caused by the intervention of adventurers.

The girl who was afraid of the boy, just because of the last threat made him give up the idea of ​​running away halfway.

After putting on her clothes, packing her bags, and carrying a huge package on her back, the little human girl finally became a supporter in a serious manner after several years.

The experience of being a supporter tells Lili that the process of conquering the maze this time is probably the most monotonous but also the hardest one she has ever done.

The reason for the monotony is that she doesn't need to worry about being attacked by monsters missed by adventurers, she doesn't need to change equipment for adventurers standing in the front line, hand over recovery potions, and bear the scolding of adventurers.

All the monsters are either smashed by magic or they are punched to death with a punch from the boy.

All she needs to do is to follow behind the boy obediently, pick up the props and magic stones on the ground, and put them into the package.

As for why it's hard, it's because...the speed is too fast.

Along the way, all the monsters they met were taken over by him alone.

If the monsters at the upper level can be explained by their weakness, then after reaching the middle level, the strength of the monsters in the labyrinth has been improved qualitatively, but the speed has not dropped at all.

Bending down to pick it up, putting it in a bag, bending down again, picking it up again... This mechanical movement continued until several hours later, the boy who was always walking in front finally stopped for a short rest.

Resting on an unsafe floor is very dangerous.

But the surrounding monsters have been wiped out beforehand, and within a short period of time, the maze can no longer produce new monsters.

"I'll give you something to eat, and you'll have the strength to go on the road when you're full." Miyuki took out fried meatballs from system space and threw them toward Lili.

Subconsciously took the thrown fried meatballs, upon hearing this, Lili almost shook her hand and threw away the lunch that Miyuki kindly handed over.

"The way I'm talking about is the way of the maze," Miyuki explained. He wanted to make a joke and let the oppressive atmosphere relax, but he didn't expect to mess it up a bit.

"...Master Adventurer, you are truly amazing." Lily laughed dryly with a pale face.

The two of them didn't communicate much along the way, so the girl didn't know what kind of person he was.

However, the two of them had penetrated into the middle area, which was far deeper than the upper level.

Adventurers who can conquer this level alone are at least level 2 or level 3.

This type of adventurer can already be regarded as the mainstay of Orario.

Further up, lv4 and lv5 are already rare powerhouses, and lv6 is even rarer in the entire world.

As for lv7, it seems that there is only one member of Freya's family so far.

"Take another twenty minutes rest."

The joke just now made the two people who were not good at words completely lose their conversation topic.

The time is spent in an atmosphere of silence.

Miyuki wrapped his windbreaker to prevent the cold from entering his body, closed his eyes, and rested his mind.

Lili sat beside him and looked at him.

Suddenly, it seemed that this adventurer was not much older than her.

Although he is not very good at talking, she can also feel that this person named Miyuki is fundamentally different from the previous guys.

He has a kind and serious face, and although she may make some nasty jokes, in general, he is better than all the adventurers she has ever teamed up with.

Along the way, even if her speed slowed down, she was not scolded.

No adventurer would protect such a worthless supporter so thoroughly.

Time passed quietly.

"Let's go." Twenty minutes later, Miyuki woke up and said.

With his left hand in the windbreaker pocket, he glanced at Lili who was dusting her body and then moved towards a deeper layer.

After a few hours.

The two came to the seventeenth floor.

The middle and lower areas are already areas that Lili has never set foot in.

The girl who wanted to remind her aloud only saw the boy running towards the group of monsters that appeared.

Copper-colored skin, muscular and thick limbs, bloodshot eyes, and an excited posture.

old friend.

Minotaur.

However, Miyuki prefers to call them "passionate tauren warriors".

Blue light covered his fists and a gauntlet immediately materialized on Miyuki's hand.

Immediately, Miyuki ran toward the Minotaurs with simple yet efficient moves.

Clenching his fists, Miyuki punched continuously at the Minotaurs.

The minotaur, which low-level adventurers could not deal damage, was easily punched open by Miyuki's fists.

In less than a minute, more than a dozen minotaurs were eliminated.

The corpses of red copper lay all over the place, and in a corner of the unsightly dungeon, the monsters gradually turned into dust, burned by the participating flames, and flew into the air.

Ashes fell slowly.

Lili, who was watching from a distance, was speechless yet calm.

She has seen such a scene from the upper floor to the middle floor. So, it can be said she has become used to Miyuki punching a monster to death.

What she is thinking now is, who is Miyuki?

With such strength, he can't be an unknown character.

If he is a high-level adventurer, it is impossible for her not to have heard of it. After all, Miyuki looked too young.

...
