章節 143: TRIP TOMMAROW....

Seeing that, Claire wiped the sweat off her forehead and sighed in relief. She then gave me a wink and mouthed three words.

'I'm serious.'

This precocious little succubus.

I chuckled in amusement and clapped my hands.

"Okay, we already lost too much time here. It's time to continue."

The girls nodded and stopped bickering, but Lena still sent one or two suspicious looks towards Louise. Fortunately, she quickly had to divert her attention towards the incoming monsters.

I must say, although the girls had an embarrassing first fight, the following combats were nothing like the first.

Each one of the girls could be considered a first-rate genius and they had followed a rigorous training from children. After they got used to the scary and dark atmosphere of the cave, the monsters became very pitiful.

Maybe because they wanted to make up for the humiliation of before, the girls attacked the monsters as bees attracted to honey. The poor monsters did not last more than one second before being overwhelmed by a barrage of spells and sword skills.

I could only smile wryly and shake my head while the girls wiped the floor with the monsters. After killing the rat, I had been unable to attack again.

Soon, the level of the monsters started to increase. But as the weakest of us was at the fourth-layer, none of the monsters was especially dangerous. Even when a fifth-layer wolf-like beast appeared, it was instantly killed by one of Louise's spells.

Generally, intelligent species such as humans, elves, beastmen, and demons, are stronger than monsters of the same level. After all, intelligent species can use tools to increase their combat strength, and their combat techniques left the monsters' crude methods of attack in the dust.

Of course, there are some exceptions, but it was generally the rule.

And even between humans, the girls could be considered geniuses between geniuses. They are prodigies able to face people stronger than them easily. Even for Lena and Claire, fighting a fifth-layer monster was a piece of cake.

Moreover, I could see that Lena and Claire were improving their combat techniques quickly. After all, they did not have much in terms of combat experience, so the constant horde of monsters served like a grindstone to sharpen their abilities.

We quickly passed the first half of the array while killing the monsters. But soon, the first obstacle of our adventure appeared.

After killing a group of monsters led by a fifth-layer tiger, a giant door appeared before us.

"... To open the door, two hearts must be connected." Lena read the line on the door. "What does it mean?" She tilted her head.

I looked at the door and thought for a moment before chuckling bitterly. It looks like the creators of this game want me dead.

But before I could speak the answer, five hidden presences appeared nearby.

At the same time, a well-hidden killing intent encompassed the four of us.

Lena and Claire, who had never faced a life-and-death fight, could not feel the killing intent. But Louise, however, turned alert instantly and got ready to fight.

I curved my lips up and chuckled.

"They are finally here, huh."

Guys, Science/Magic first nine chapters are out (and another three in patreon). Give it a read and tell me what do you think about it. Unfortunately, my brother has not finished the cover yet, so It's without a cover...

Anyway, I'm going in a trip tomorrow. I have some chapters stocked to post them while I'm away, but you know that man proposes, but God disposes.

I guess the cover will be ready when I come back, so...
