Chapter 208 (1/2)
Phoenix
Last chapter su a futon
The next day We challenge the 32nd floor boss early
Roxanne leads in light strides
”Uun, there are monsters close by, but they’re merely Non-rem Golems Also, there aren’t many It’ll be better for us to proceed to the boss battle straight away”
We advance without paying any attention to a sroup of monsters en route
Roxanne quickly guides the party to the boss room
After having waited a day, we’re bri with motivation
”The Rockbird boss is called Firebird Although its weakness is the same as a Rockbird’s, the attribute it uses isn’t It’s proficient in Fire ic and resistant to Fire attribute Since its resistance differs, we need to be careful”
Having received the briefing fro room, we proceed to the boss room
The resistance of the Rockbird boss seems to be different from a Rockbird’s
It’s a rare pattern
They tend to mostly be identical
We enter the boss room
Sathers in the centre of the room as the monsters take form
The Firebird is a bird covered in red flame
Ooh
It’s a bird on fire
It’s a Phoenix
It’s undoubtedly a fire bird (TN: The kanji for Phoenix literally means fire bird)
It’s burning
It’s flaring
Its red hot fla up
An infringing hellfire which the escape is impossible from
It’ll completely bake the boss room
And then, there’ll be another Gomorrah (TN: City destroyed by fire & bri/wiki/Sodom_and_Gomorrah)
The Firebird buries its frighteningly fla head
An overwhel into ould appear to be a pillar of salt (TN: Another reference to Gomorrah)
Roxanne lightly sways and dodges it
She has dodged it
So, even the 32nd floor boss is unable to land an attack on Roxanne, eh?
She swings her neck in order to avoid the next thrust
This tier than usual
Sheflame into consideration
She’s dodging much more than usual
Roxanne is in charge of the labor work
Her fee is the sah
Such words are flashi+ng through my mind
Oh well It’ll all go into one wallet anyway
I, who’s in charge of desk work, cast spells
After petrifying a Rockbird, Miria joins in on the attack
Having fulfilled her quota of one spell, Rutina participates in the physical attacks using her stick
It doesn’t seem to be that hot
Oh well Since it’s weak against Water and Ice ic, there’s no reason for it to be
Oh, paralysis
As the Firebird’s movement ceases, it drops down
Since Miria keeps attacking, it seems to be paralysis, not sleep nor petrifaction
It’s difficult to distinguish between paralysis, petrifaction and sleep merely from appearance
Moreover, its flah it has been paralyzed
”Did it, desu”
This tinal of petrifaction
It’s incomprehensible from the appearance, after all
The fla
I have no particular interest in touching it, so I finish it off with ic
The Rockbird, which Vesta was keeping company, dies before Miria could petrify it
In the boss battles, Miria’s perfor
Speaking conversely, because Miria is able to perforly, the 32nd floor boss battle is safe
Theitems behind
The Rockbirds dropped feathers while the Firebird left behind… so
So like leather
When I use Appraisal, it displays ‘ostrich’
Ostrich……
Was that an ostrich?
When I heard it was a fire bird, I thought it would be a dignified creature; however, no sooner I found it was an ostrich behind the guise, I felt betrayed
Oh well Considering it was able to fly, it’s commendable
After all, it wasn’t a bird inside
”Can it be made into an armor?”
”It’s ostrich Because it’s too soft, it can’t be ”
I ask Sherry, but it doesn’t seem to be able to be made into an armor
I have never seen an ostrich armor; so, yeah
”Because it’s light and can be st the noble ladies When attending the Lords’ assembly, it’d be wonderful to have an ostrich briefcase”
Rutina shares some unnecessary information
She doesn’t see the Lords’ assembly
Being a noble is as troublesome as I expected
Would I be disrespected if I went there with an Adventurer-use rucksack?
‘Look at that! He’s carrying a rucksack in the Lords’ assembly! Which rural area is that noble from?’
‘Why is he carrying a sword onna use it, is he?’
‘Oh, is he drawing the sword? Is he going to draw the sword? If he did, he would lose his territory and peerage He ht even receive capital punishment’
‘He hasn’t drawn? What a coward!’
‘Mannerless bastard! Countryside nobles should keep themselves locked up inside the labyrinth Like a carp in a well’
‘Carp, a carp, a noble carp!’
These are ry, me
Don’t Calm down
According to the E the labyrinths is the purpose of a noble’s existence
An attire appropriate for a labyrinth cannot be ridiculed
Rather, if it were a branded bag, I would be considered a snob
How many nobles enter the labyrinths?
Those who shi+rk their responsibilities, raaudily and turn corrupt will end up as the Earl of Selmar
”Or better yet, an Orichalcum attache case If needs be, it can be used as a shi+eld, too”
”Orichalcum cannot be processed unless a Master Smith uses their skill It can neither be melted nor treated As for Orichalcunized either as an armor or as a weapon”
When I try to retort, I get refuted by Sherry
There has to be such a thing as Orichalcum attache case
”On the 33rd floor, if I reons?”
Let’s change the topic
”Correct”
Since the bosses will appear as normal monsters on the 34th floor onward in the saet restricted
The opportunities for her to refute will get lessened, too
We surge to the 33rd floor
Since we have already fought the Drive Dragons before; also, since isted and turned the 32nd floor monsters and reached the 33rd floor by ourselves, I’m not afraid
Ame
On a second thought, the duration of battles has considerably lengthened
It has doubled
