Chapter 36 Heroes Trial?

Its full of dust~

Hyoi

That hole looks quite deep since I cant see to the bottom.

It may even be connected to the 50th floor.

After advancing for a while.

Really

Which way to go?

The left road is considerably worn-out.

It will most likely not change no matter which road we take.

Wait.

In that case, there may be another way to decide besides intuition.

Whats the matter~? Goshujin-shama?

Theres something Id like to try. I may be able to understand this buildings structure if I spread magic through it

Suta Peta

First, let the magic loose

There it is.

Although the appraisal said that its not operational

How suspicious

When I pour magic and pursue the source of the magic in the circuit.

Tsu~n Tsu~n Tsu~n

Magic is being released from inside the room.

Of course, its that room.

Ado, lets go on the right road. I may have found a treasure room

Hyoi

If we come across a crossroads again I will tell you where to go. I have roughly remembered the route

Ou

asdadasda

Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa

Goshujin-shama~ Is it inside this room~?

Opening~

Tote Tote Gigii~batan

The room is dark, but it seems considerably spacious.

A few steps forward

Flames gradually light up and the room becomes bright.

Looks like a stage for a boss fight.

Fuhahahaha~ Good job on getting here, Hero! Now then, are you able to win against me?

The sudden laughter belongs to a ridiculously huge dragon!

Its genuinely huge, though.

Maybe even bigger than the Triceratops Turtle.

Ado seems excited.

Thats certainly exciting.

We are no heroes at all.

Im a Baby Vampire.

Ado is demi-human of ancient times.

Hoho~u. Whats wrong, hero? Are you intimidated by my voice?

Rather.

Seems like strong monsters will develop a conversation skill after all.

That, excuse me. We are not heroes or anything, though

W, what are you trying to trick me? I wont fall for that trick

Ado is a Hell Earth Dog-Human nodeshu

T, that cant be But, coming to this temple means that you are a Monster Hero, isnt that correct?

A Monster Hero

Nono, its the truth. We came to this temple only by a chance, I was born on the level below. Just recently

Right nodesu~ Goshujin-shama is not a hero nodesu

Nu, that presence really seems to be that of a monster

Yes. Im glad you understand. After appraising it werent supposed to be operational so we didnt expect to find someone. In addition, The Transfer Gate below is broken

Nu, really? Is what you just said the truth? Are you not lying?

Yes

So thats why nobody was coming Because nobody was coming all this time, I thought a lot about it. I was thinking of leaving this place and searching for the hero myself

That is very terrible

Apparently, this place is a place of trials for heroes or something.

But, for what reason does this dragon waits for a hero?

Dragon-san, why are you waiting for a hero?

Is that so, then, it seems to be unrelated to us. Please, excuse us

Sutasuta Sutasuta

When trying to leave the room.

What a moment

What is it?

Where are you heading to?

We are aiming towards the Transfer Gate at the 40th floor

In other words, leaving the dungeon?

Maa, that may be quite possible

Good. Then, I will accompany you

Eh

Why?

I think that such monstrously huge creature wont be able to leave the pyramid, though.

I think that you would slightly stand out

Nu, rest assured. I can transform

Boshu Chokon

A small green dragon.

Ara, kawaii.

Lets try appraising for a bit.

Level: 67

Hiyoeeee.

So amazing I ran out of breath.

Thats a huge difference between the highest level Ive seen so far.

Ado was quite strong from level 1.

The dragon in front of me may be ridiculously strong.

Nu, you are appraising me

Appraisal has been discovered.

I cancel the appraisal at once.

I dont particularly mind. Many heroes appraised me before. But you, a monster with the appraisal is rare. What is your name?

Tokugawa

Goshujin-shama is Goshujin-shama~

Thank you, Ado.

She happily moves her head in synergy with my hand.

An Ancient species like me under a Familiar contract how interesting

Yes, it turned out that way

Goshujin-shama~ Goshujin-shama~

My stomach is growling

Because I wanted to talk with Dragon-san, Id like if you could bear it for a while.

However, Im not able to leave Ado with her tail down alone.

Cant be helped~ Excuse me, Dragon-san

Nu, its alright. I have waited for dozes of years. I can wait for a few minutes

With the dragons permission.I retrive a grilled Ayuyu from the item box and hand it to Ado.

Paku

Gokuri

Ado looks happy.

Because the item box is able to keep the freshness and temperature, we can eat it at any time.

By the way, El Jiisan also saidLeave some grilled Ayuyu behind by all means, so I left him with a few pieces.

Nu, you, that smells quite nice. Give me also one. If you do that, I will also agree to the Familiar contract

Ueeeeei!

Dragon-san.

Are you sure?

Apprently, its tempted with food.

Of course

Nu, lets make the contract then

Create a Familiar contract with Ancient Green Dragon?

Oh, its the gods voice.

The answer is of course, an OK.

Quickly before the other party changes its mind.

Familiar contract completed

Because there is no name, please decide on one

Again

Monsters may fundamentally have no names.

Umm, Dragon-san, do you have a name in mind?

Then Ancient Green Dragon-san

Nu, isnt that my race? Are you making fun of me?

Crap.

Dragon-san is glaring at me.

Nono, not at all. Well then How about En?

Nu, sounds good. En, nice, a good name

It seems dragon-san likes it.

Then, voice of the god-san.

Since dragon-san has given the consent.

Name was set to En

Fuu~

It seems the Familiar contract is completed safely.

Like this, the Ancient Green Dragon joined my family.
