Death Soil Pool

If you asked who is the weakest among us when Ludi and the others received those store bonus rings, the answer would be me.

Well, let’s make it clear. When compare Ludi’s power to the ordinary first-year students, she is absurdly far above them. It’s to the extent that I thought that isn’t she has a higher chance of defeating the protagonist more than me?

With that said, I can’t keep losing like this.

What must be done is to strengthen myself, for that sake, I have already made a preparation. I even prepared an item and an accomplice (Nanami).

With that as the case, the first action I must take was decided. Skipping school and go to a dungeon.

Ludi said [It is almost time for the test, is it fine?], She worried about me but honestly, I don’t care about the test……… No, I’m actually a little worried but if I can’t take it then I don’t mind not taking it. At least I won’t fail……..I think. At worst I should still be better off than Katrina or Orange, probably.

Well, the dungeon I will be diving into this time is a store exclusive dungeon that was included as a bonus for purchasing an expansion pack from a major company’s [store with its name sounded like a soft map.]

(TLN: not sure which company, tried searching for it but the closest one was Kojak)

There’s no weird entry condition like the Shadow Ruin that we captured before. Although we were messing with each other right before entering the dungeon we were able to enter it without any problem.

This [Death Soil Pool] and [Twilight Grotto (The place I found Nanami)] and [Shadow Ruin (Panties Ruin) were at the same level as a dungeon.

However, this dungeon will spawn higher-level monsters.

But they will not be spawning normally.

Then how can we get it to spawn? The answer is the trap.

“Goshujin-sama, I’m ready.”

“OH.”

Nanami activates the trap, making the monster fall from the sky. Dropping down, It rolled up the dust while making a heavy impact sound and stood up.

This thing was called Gidiao, Simply looking at it, it appeared like a big turtle. Its size is twice that of a big bike. It may look like a turtle but it is a relative of the dragons. Looking closely, you will see its sharp claws on its legs with some part of its body covered in scale.

When I first played the game, I don’t know how strong it is so I just attack it head-on and got my party member wiped out. The reason I managed to survive was due to its slow walking speed. I bit my lip and said [Don’t you think you have won with this!!] as a parting word and ran away.

I came to know this later but it seems running away from it was a normal way to capture this dungeon.

That Gidao wasn’t a monster that has an appropriate level for this dungeon. It was a monster several levels higher that only spawn through a trap. Thus, if you don’t have the right level you couldn’t win against it. If you want to defeat it normally then you have to raise your level first.

Then what should I do if I accidentally stepped on the trap and the Gidao appears? Since it is very slow, the right option was to run away from it.

However. Running away was definitely the right choice but is it right to think that you are in a crisis just because you encounter a strong monster from a trap?

Isn’t it said in a lot of business books that [Let’s change the crisis into an opportunity] or [The crisis itself is the opportunity to grow] or something like that?

That is exactly the case here.

We have to change our mindset.

Certainly, the trap was malicious. But if we use it well then it will become terribly useful. In this case, you can spawn a monster that gives you decent experience points in a low-level dungeon. One of the reasons I started to like traps when I became an adult was because I learned how to utilize them like this. Well, there are many who hold grudges against it though.

Now, how will I use it effectively?

The first thing I have to think about is whether I can defeat it or not.

Speaking from the result, I can defeat it even if I am underleveled.

One of the reasons why the eroge, [Magical★Explorer] has become so popular was because it has a properly balanced weakness system. Well, some bosses don’t have those weaknesses though. But this Turtle (Gidao) has a certain weak point, if you properly exploited it you can defeat it even if you are underleveled.

Yes, it can be defeated. If we can lower the risk when we are defeating it then we can easily get a great number of experience points.

(TLN: Killing Capra demon with a firebomb flashback)

But it was much of a pain more than I imagined.

I flipped the fallen Gidiao upside down with Third and Fourth hand. When it flapping its legs around, Nanami activated the trap again.

I immediately flipped it upside down, rendering it helpless and line them up.

After we line them up nicely, Nanami blasted its belly with Explode Arrow while I punch it in the gut until it dies then proceed to the next one.

In the game we would use earth magic to flip them and do an all-out attack to destroy its belly with high damage strategy, This place was where you can easily earn magic elements (experience points). I exploited it this time as well and it was very to do so but…..

It’s too monotonous.

I know that it will get boring like this. If I was at home doing this I can just watch Douga (TLN: JP youtube) or livestream it and interact with viewers using the comments though.

“Nanami, do you know what am I thinking?”

Nanami is professionally doing her part without any expression.

“Of course, if it’s Goshujin-sama then I know you like the back of my hand. You want two more of Nanami’s used panties right?”

“Not even a millimeter close.”

There’s no way I am thinking about that right? Well, if you asked whether I want one or not, then the answer was already decided though.

“As I thought, you want three for preservation, one as an ornamental and another for practical use right.”

“Not even a micro closer.”

Speaking of which, having three sure is convenient huh……. Wait, what am I thinking.

“Then it was one to put at the bottom, one for the head and another for holding in your hand right?”

“Not even by the nano closer.”

Why do you think I will be equipping it like three sacred treasures? Isn’t that just a pervert?

“Don’t tell me, you are going to use it on a missionary mission!?”

“Where could a missionary propagate a thing like that!? I won’t do it!!”

“I’m glad, it would only be painful to give it to anyone other than Goshujin-sama after all.”

“I’m good……..”

Somehow, I’m a little happy.

We were properly working while having such an idiotic conversation. But a boring thing is boring after all.

Dropping turtle.

Flipping turtle.

Dropping turtle.

Flipping turtle.

Punch them in the gut.

Do I have to keep doing this………….

“We get a lot of magic elements so let’s keep doing our best.”

I nodded to Nanami.

“Yeah, that’s right.”

Author Notes: It isn’t related to the story but, the turtle shell was made of bones and skin. Since it is a part of its body you can’t remove it. Eh? But, there are guys that come out when you step on them or those that can detach and attach it at will. Just what are those things……
