Year 7446, Month 9, Day 10

However you know, all said and done we were able to make it to here at favorable pace.

I think it's quite the good pace considering Giberuti ended up going down along the way and we had to carry him while moving.

It's big that Zulu is wearing the leather armor he used to use in the past as well.

As expected if it was the banded-mail we took from {Bright.Blade} this speed would have been impossible.

And then, just before 9:00 am we arrived at the 6th floor.

This time we managed to teleport into a location that's roughly 7 km from the teleport crystal.

It's considerably good luck to pull this spot on the first try.

If it's here then it's very possible for us to enter the 7th floor this morning.

Zenom and Miduch lead the {Butchers} and {Exterminators} as they just cleared through this 6th floor a number of times the other day. I thought they would already have been over some of their aversion to the teleport traps but it seems the previously psychological burden isn't going to disappear so easily. Certainly if I were to see my allies disappear right in front of my eyes to some unknown location then I might end up with a trauma similar to them as well.

Teleport traps are frightening but if you were to ask me I'm more afraid of the monsters that make use of those suddenly attack almost like an ambush. We have no choice but to remain on guard. Consequently on this floor rather than "running through" we just proceeded by speed walking.

Though Miduchi said, "It's certainly a bit slow but we're still clearing through at a considerably high speed."... I can't even remember when it was anymore when we would pass through slowly one at a time and spend a total of several minutes just to get by. I'll accept that we've make tremendous progress compared to them though.

Normally we move slower as they nervously stick to the wall and follow behind but this time we weren't lowering our speed for that Ginger, Jeru, and the others at all. Gwine just acts like she's looking at the map for a bit and says, "The part sticking out of the wall over there has a teleport trap about 3 meters ahead of it" and then we all walk casually past it along the wall without lowering our pace.

For the sake of caution I wanted to turn around but (Particularly on the side of a trap in the worst case a boar appears there and someone gets knocked into the trap it would be difficult) I even endured that. If I don't do this then they'll eternally maintain the trauma and every time they have to pass a teleport trap they'll turn pale while barely unable to advance.

I thought if they could conquer it here then it might have some influence on the other members with the same type of trauma.

While Ginger and Jeru are probably pale and barely advancing, without even turning around I faced forced with my pace the same while saying, "Anyone who's slow will be left behind. If it's impossible then return. If it's from here then you can quickly return back to the 5th floor and there's no monsters. If you run it won't even take 5 minutes." before walking off. Kamu, Misu, and Rodrick were trying to say something but I didn't pay it any mind.

And then, the Ginger and Jeru they were worried about followed after us just a bit late. We're walking as well and they know that if you walk along the edge of the hall you can pass by without getting caught in the trap so it's only obvious though. However, compared to the time when I had entered {Sun.Ray} it's tremendous progress. It's quite something.

Well that's great.

Starting next time I can properly remain cautious after all.

However, we were only able to advance smoothly for the first 30 minutes or so and after that along the way we suddenly were attached by {Cave Boars}. The first time the {Cave Boar} appeared from the front so Zulu and I finished it off with Miduchi's magic as support. However, the second time was from the rear. That time the ones who were in the back was Jeru and Misu but it seems they had just a bit of good luck as well. The moment the {Cave Boar} appeared it was just as Giberuti had turned around to hand them some Baldoggie as a snack.

He was surprised but thanks to Giberuti calmly sticking the wall while shouting "Behind!!" and Jeru dealing with the charge of the boar covering for Misu we were able to make it this far without anyone suffering any injuries.

Without any large trouble, and the power enemy {Quad-handed Apes} never appearing as the boss of a room, we arrived at the teleport crystal in the center room at about 11:00 am. The {Cave Great Boar} in the room along the way Miduchi and I used {Detect.Life} to figure out the number and their location before using attack spells the moment we had visibility to injure their legs and deal with them all.

It seems Kamu and the others think that Miduchi and I have frighteningly sharp intuition.

Adding to that, it seems the fact that were overlooking boss class magic stones(they can be sold for roughly 150,000~250,00 Z each) from the 6th floor is a regret as well. Obviously I regrets over it as well. I want to gather them all. They would all add up to over 1,000,000 Z I'm sure...

"Take a 30 minute break. It's the last break so properly rest. Giberuti prepare just the Baldoggie. Ah, it's fine to just line them up in the frying pan."

Everyone's quietly resting their bodies. Giberuti's taking his wooden rack that he left to Zulu back and started adjusting the belt on it as well. This time we're expecting several injured people so he's coming along to the 7th floor as well. Though it's not limited to just injured people that we'll have to carry.

Of course I guess you could say, the camp site of {Black.Topaz} was left in the same condition as that morning.

It seems we haven't just missed them.

...............................

"It's here. We're finally in the correct location."

On our 17th time teleporting in we finally managed to get to a location that leads to the northern monster room.

There's roughly 6 km to the northern monster room.

In order to get to the place where we came from the other day we have to clear through the northern monster room once but it's possible to pass through the ogre mage room without fighting by just moving along the wall.
