“““Grrrr-grrr-grrr!”””
Three dog-headed monsters rushed towards us.
“Hmph! Get lost!”
“““Gyaun!”””
In a flash, Anje stepped forward and swiped her fist sideways. With that, the three monsters were blown away at the same time. They then slammed hard into the wall and died.
“S-so strong……”
“Yeah. Even though they are kobolds, I didn’t think that she can kill all three of them at once with a single back fist……”
“……As expected of someone said to be the closest to A rank.”
The fellow B-rank adventurers held their breath at the extraordinary strength shown by the Amazoness. By the way, her fighting style is similar to Kenpo style, which utilizes ones power.
“Tsk. Boring. I wonder if this is the only monster that can come out. If that’s the case, I alone would be enough.”
“W-well, this dungeon is normally not that hard.”
Anje brushes her red hair with her hand in a bored manner, and Badak replies to her comment with a wry smile.
We were making good progress through the dimly lit cavern. All that comes out are weak monsters such as kobolds, and so far, I haven’t seen any dangerous monsters yet.
“Anje, don’t let your guard down.”
“……Hmph! Shut up! I don’t want to be called out by a wimp holding a baby!”
“It’s not like I’m wimping though.”
Even when Fana reminder her, Anje doesn’t listen. Amazoness can’t tolerate the existence of anyone stronger than them, but at the same time, they don’t listen to anyone they think is inferior to them. It is such a troublesome race, but it can be said that it is a normal characteristic of a warrior race.
As we are walking through the dungeon like that, Hemil, the thief, suddenly stopped in his tracks. He is a party member of Badak and is good at exploration and stealth operations.
He then speaks in a doubtful manner,
“……Wait. Something doesn’t feel right around there…”
“Doesn’t feel right? Is it a trap?”
“I’m not sure either. It just feels kind of dangerous.”
The area he pointed to is dimly lit and when I looked closely, it looks like there’s nothing there. But now that he mentioned it, it indeed felt weird around there.
This is…… Monster?
“Hmph! Even if it was a trap, if it’s in a dungeon like this, it wouldn’t be a big deal anyway.”
Saying that, Anje walks forward defenseless.
“Wait a minute, Anje-oneechan!”
I trusted my instincts and used my search spell to look ahead, just to be sure. I couldn’t see it, but there was definitely a monster reaction.
“Bumoooo!”
“Wha-!?”
The next moment, a terrific battle cry reverberated through the cave. Even though it is invisible to our sight, a growing ferocious presence rushed towards us.
“Watch out! It’s a Minotaur!”
““““Minotaur!?””””
“Kyaaaa!?”
Anje was blown away and rolled towards us. She must have been hit by the charge of the Minotaur.
“Hur- it hurts….…”
“Oneechan, are you okay?”
“……I-, I’m sure I’m fine!”
Anje frowns but quickly stands up. As expected of an Amazoness, her body is sturdy.
“Fana-oneechan, can you see it?”
“I can’t see it, but I can feel it. There will be no problem.”
The Minotaur is a muscular bull monster that walks on two legs. Its monstrous power and powerful lunges make it a troublesome monster. However, it shouldn’t have had the ability to be invisible like this.
—Unless it has undergone a special evolution like the ones from my previous life.
“Okay, I’ll go.”
Fana drew her two swords and attacked the Minotaur. Hearing the footsteps coming from the ground and its rough snorting is certainly a way to deal with it, but…….
Zan!!
“Bumooooooooo!!!”
Immediately after she rushed forward with her two swords crossed, the Minotaur’s death cry rang out. Right after the sound of a huge body falling to the ground echoed out, its ability to become invisible seems to have been dissolved and the defeated minotaur’s figure gradually becomes visible.
“Oi, oii, what the heck is going on? Minotaurs are already a troublesome monster with a B- danger level…but now it’s like the invisible panther!”
It was Maricia who exclaimed. The invisible panther she mentioned is a leopard monster with the ability to become invisible. Mmm. It certainly seems to be the same thing.
“W-What’s going on here?”
“Is this one of the anomalies we heard about……?”
Judging by their reactions, it seems that there is no minotaur that can become invisible even in this day and age.
“Hey, watch out! It’s here again. No… This time, it’s not just one…… There are about ten of them!”
“T-Ten!?”
“Rather, how do you know…… uh-?”
Ten minotaurs that can become invisible. It will be difficult to deal with it just by sensing their presence. I decided to use earth magic and water magic as a measure.
Splaaasssh!!!
“W-What’s this? ……Mud?”
“Yup. With this, we can see what it looks like.”
