Following the stairs down .

[… . . Gulp . ] (Ryouta)

I had to swallow my saliva .

The air around felt different .

The tensed air around me felt tingly .

[I-I wonder if the spirit here is a scary one?]

That was what Alice felt, and it was a strong one at that .

[No, before we meet with the spirit, we have to fight with one more monster . ] (Ryouta)

[Is that so?!] (Alice)

[I mean that’s what’s been happening so far . Once we head down this floor, we’ll be faced with a monster . It’s a Dungeon Master cla.s.s monster . ] (Ryouta)

[I see… . ] (Alice)

It was but a moment when she looked at me with eyes of respect, before she changed into a more disturbed look when looking at the stairs .

[Is something bothering you?] (Ryouta)

[Hey Ryouta, I… . . want to try . ] (Alice)

[Try and?] (Ryouta)

[And fight with the monster . After defeating it, we can meet with the spirit right?] (Alice)

[That’s the usual way… . ] (Ryouta)

That has been the case when I was at Selen or a.r.s.enic .

I wanted to defeat it before bringing her, but I didn’t say that out loud because I saw for a moment her dead serious eyes .

It shows that she really wants to do it, that she can do it .

With such a powerful and determined eyes, I can’t say anything else but .

[I got it . ] (Ryouta)

I’m not sure why she wanted to do it, but if it’s her, I won’t say no to it .

[Then I’ll support you from behind . Since you’ve used

to decrease it’s status . Since there’s 6 monsters for you, before rus.h.i.+ng I’ll use Speed Up Bullet—-] (Ryouta)

[Ryouta] (Alice)

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

She stared at me .

It’s the same—–determined and pure eyes that indicated that she wants to fight by herself .

[I’ll do my best . ] (Alice)

[… . . ] (Ryouta)

[I can do it . ] (Alice)

[… . . Is that so . ] (Ryouta)

I have no idea what’s going on .

However, what she has shown me has made me believed that she can do it .

It’s not something that she’s putting herself in danger, but something she knows that it’s possible for her .

If that’s what she wants then .

[I understand . ] (Ryouta)

I pulled back from any support and allowed her to do it .

[Thanks♪] (Alice)

She smiled and displayed a cheerful voice .

Then, having her friendly monsters walked towards her palm of her hands, she placed them on the ground and they became back to their original size .

Jumpy-san the Slime .

Boney-chan the Skeleton .

Bon-bon the Little Devil .

Toge-chan the Needle Lizard .

And Gau-gau the Master Dragon .

Since they know the feeling of their master, they knew what they have to do .

[Let’s go everyone~] (Alice)

After saying that, all of them went down together .

As soon as she left the last step, she disappeared .

I waited .

Probably—–

[You’re here huh… . Rebecca . ] (Ryouta)

Calling out from behind, Rebecca appeared .

I thought she was at the mansion .

[I’ve heard from your friend that you’ll be here . ] (Rebecca)

[I see, sorry for not meeting with you . ] (Ryouta)

[Don’t worry about it . So what are you here for?] (Rebecca)

[Waiting for my friend to return . ] (Ryouta)

[Return? —– Don’t tell me . ] (Rebecca)

As expected of her, [The Perfect], to understand what I meant after just one word .

[Yeah, we’re here to meet with the spirit of this dungeon, Phosphorus . ] (Ryouta)

[Is that so… . I guess this is not a coincidence or something . ] (Rebecca)

[… . Nope, that’s not it . ] (Ryouta)

[Ara, you’re being cold for the first time . So you’re trying to get another one of your friend to be a spirit holder . However, you should know the hurdles leading up here?] (Rebecca)

In Rebecca’s line, there was only a slight difference in [weight] from the others .

I understood even without asking .

The reason why she came to visit today would be to hear about the other huan——Mike who has Aurum’s name .

Apart from that, she also knows how hard it is to meet with spirits .

That’s why she was doubting .

[It’s not that I’m being cold to you . ] (Ryouta)

[Then what could it be?] (Rebecca)

I once again went around my thoughts .

I went back to when I first met with her .

[Probably, no it’s for certain . After Alice returns, Phosphorus will be conquered . ] (Ryouta)

[Which means… . ] (Rebecca)

For a moment, she stared at me .

[You go that far to trust her?] (Rebecca)

[Saying that would be embarra.s.sing, but yeah . ] (Ryouta)

Basically that .

[Yes, I admit that her behaviour and feelings are transmitted through, but I wonder if it will work out . ] (Rebecca)

[It will . ] (Ryouta)

I immediately replied .

It’s not something so great like her feelings or anything .

I just simply trust in her .

Trust in Alice, that’s it .

Then—-

[Ryouta! Look look! It’s Mermera, Mermera!!] (Alice)

After returning with high tension, there was a blue flame, a deformed ball of flame on her hands .

[Is that Phosphorus?] (Ryouta)

[Yes! But today it’s MerMera . ] (Alice)

[I see…] (Ryouta)

Apparently Alice has already named the Dungeon spirit .

I unknowingly laughed at her naming sense .

[… . . ]

Not knowing Alice, Rebecca couldn’t say anything back .
