Slave Harem in the Labyrinth of the Other World (LN)

Even if I listen to Sherry, is the thirty-fifth floor going to be that hard?

From the thirty-fifth floor onwards, we will finally meet some full-fledged opponent.

「Well, let’s fight anyway it anyway. Roxanne, are there any small groups of monsters nearby?」

「Yes. This way.」

Break through the Boss Room, enter the thirty-fifth floor, and start fighting for real: that’s the plan.

We’re starting with a lukewarm group of two Palm Baums. That amount is just right. It’s really affordable.

That’s what I initially thought, but they proved to be quite troublesome opponents.

「I did it, desu!」

Specifically, they’re troublesome enough that the battle dragged on until Milia cleans them up with her petrification.

The Gambler Job was removed right after the Boss battle was over. At least it’s a lot stronger than Kobold Kampfer.

「Is this the power of the monsters that come out on the thirty- fourth floor? In that case, I think that we can still fight them well enough.」

Roxanne expresses a terrifying opinion.

Huh? Is it just me, or is she getting too troublesome? Or rather, please include Kobold Kampfer in the group of monsters that appear from the thirty-fourthh floor onwards.

I see.

Sherry’s calm opinion is helpful after all.

「Well, if you compare it with a Drive Dragon that possesses resistances to all types of magic, thinking like that obviously cannot be helped. But them not having any weaknesses is certainly troublesome.」

Is it really necessary to compare it with the Drive Dragon that appears on the thirty-third floor? How does it even compare to Drive Dragon in the first place? Surely by being less troublesome?

No, no, if anything, you can compare it with the Drive Dragon that appears on the twenty third floor.

Comparing Drive Dragon Lv.35 to Palm Baum Lv.35 might be unfair because Drive Dragon resists all types of magic.

「Let’s do it, desu!」

It’s not always going to be possible to petrify all monsters.

「I think that we’re going to be alright.」

Oh, yes. We’re going to be okay. But I wonder if we’re really going to be okay?

「Well, if everyone says that we’re all good, then can we move on and fight on the thirty-fifth floor now?」

I’m not completely convinced, but no one expresses their concerns, so it can’t be helped. And it is true that we defeated the enemies just now rather safely and easily.

「Yes. That’s right.」

Will Roxanne continue to go crazy like she was doing recently?

「Alright then, let’s go back to the thirty-fourth floor…」

「No. Please wait just a moment. If you go over there, there will be monsters nearby. There seems to be a fair amount of them, so it should be just right for us. Since it’s a great deal, then let’s hunt them.」

When I tried to return to the thirty-fourth floor, I was stopped by Roxanne. Well, isn’t this just going overkill? However, I don’t remember using monsters as a way out of things all that often, since I feel like I’ve been doing that sporadically until now.

Or rather, is it just right to have a reasonable number? Isn’t it just right to have a small number? Does it feel like one or two now, or something else?

Somehow I don’t understand.

We proceed according to Roxanne’s guidance anyway. What came out at us soon was a group of three Palm Baums, one Kobold Kampfer, and two Drive Dragons.

Isn’t that a full spec? No. I don’t know what to say.

On this floor I am going to be using Fire Magic and 「Firestorm」 repeatedly against six monsters, a maximum that a single group of them can have.

「Miria is going to be the opponent of the Drive Dragon.」 「Yes, desu!」

「Vesta and are going to take care of the rest.」

「Understood!」

While the vanguard is going to take care of the enemies upfront, it is going to be my Job to hit them with magic repeatedly.

「I did it, desu!」

「One enemy down!」 Kobold Kampfer falls first, then one of the Drive Dragons got petrified. Leaving the petrified monsters behind, Roxanne instructed us to retreat until all the monsters lined up on the front line.

Sherry’s spear will reach them now that they are in the front, so the chances of getting attacked by area of effect magic have been greatly reduced. Now its just going to be a contest of endurance until the last one falls down

「I did it, desu!」

Well, Miria also cleaned up the last remaining Drive Dragon. I should have said that it’s a contest of endurance until Miria petrifies the last enemy instead.

Should I say that it became relatively easy to win because of the petrification, or should I say that the battle time has been extended so much that Miria managed to activate petrification multiple times?

「After all, battling Drive Dragons takes more time. Palm Baum is not that big of a deal though.」

Where does that perception of Roxanne’s come from?

「It’s all thanks to their resistances. They’re tough opponents.」

Sherry’s remarks are more grounded in reality. However, what about Drive Dragon Lv.35 being a target of comparisons?

「Well, the Drive Dragon is stronger than the monsters from the floor below.」

「After all, it’s a Drive Dragon.」

After all, Roxanne is strange in various ways.

She says the numbers are reasonable and brings them to the max, so I guess she really thinks it’s not a big deal? Or am I just too scared?

We return to the thirty-fourth floor and have a Boss battle. After defeating the Floor Boss, we went to the thirty-fifth floor, and repeatedly fought there.

I can fight without being in a pinch. Am I really too scared?

At first, it felt like the battles were long and difficult, but by the end of the day, they became noticeably easier.

Getting used to things is great.

It wouldn’t be good if my sense of crisis faded though.

But we’re not really in a pinch, so it should be fine.

That’s what I thought, but at night I realized that wasn’t it. It’s because the Jobless Job is leveling up.

As the Jobless’s level increases, the Effect of 「Increase INT (Medium)」and the Skill 「Basic Fire Magic」are also going to increase in power, making the fighs even easier. It’s just a matter of time before that happens.

What was that? It’s not like I’m used to it.

Well, maybe a little. At least my sense of crisis has not dulled. I will be able to fight without problems from tomorrow.

The next day, we challenge the Floor Boss on the thirty-fifth floor.

「For the time being, it will be a full-fledged battle with the Floor Boss here. I’m counting on you.」 「Yes. I’m looking forward to it.」

You don’t say.

Well, I wouldn’t say it’s completely wrong. The feeling of taking it as fun instead of worrying. I would prefer if Roxanne wasn’t like that at all.

「I also want to try fighting against this Kobold Jeager.」

Sherry seems eager to test the Kobold Jeager as well. Who knew that she was actually that kind of person as well?

「Let’s do it, desu!」

Miria is great. I can always rely on her during Boss battles.

I feel like there are some people I shouldn’t rely on.

「I think we are going to be fine.」

Reliable.

As someone who secretly attacks from the side, I am grateful to have the large Vesta undertake this task. Even if there is some disagreement as to whether or not it was stamped with the seal of approval.

Didn’t I say it properly? Well, I think that it is going to be all right.

「Okay. Shall we be on our way?」

「Yes we can. The Floor Boss of the thirty-fifth floor of Quratar’s Labyrith is called Canary Camellia. Just like Naïve Olive or Palm Baum, it doesn’t have any weaknesses or resistances. Basically, it should be alright to think about it as a Palm Baum that is one grade stronger.」

After receiving Sherry’s briefing, we rush into the Boss Room. The Skill set on the Jobless Job is still 「Beginner Fire Magic」. If it doesn’t have any weaknesses, then it should be okay to leave it as it is.

Since the Jobless itself has leveled up, its 「Beginner Fire Magic」Skill should also be stronger than it was before.

Smoke gathered and two Floor Bosses appeared. It’s a tree monster similar to Naive Olive and Palm Baum.

It differs from Needlewood and Rub Shrub in that it has lush foliage.
