The Earth-san Has Leveled Up! - Volume 2 Chapter 12.3
However, since she was slashing with a blade, Sasara, like Ruru, saw a heaping amount of blood and dropped her tension.
The two Pestle Rabbit disappeared into light.
Sasara looks up at the sky, bites her lower lip with a gulp, and gulps down something that came up in her throat.
Then Sasara lets out a gasp and smiled at Meiko and Ruru.
Ah, my friends were both strong girls., Meiko thought.
Meiko was thrilled that it was the two of them who fell into the dungeon together.
If it had been someone who just wanted the reputation of coming back from the dungeon, someone who pushed Meiko to do everything and do nothing, Meiko would surely have already died.
Seeing her friends like that, Sasara’s words that a lady was the way of the soul came back to Meiko’s mind.
After the battle was over, the group reflected on the situation.
After finishing, they discussed the fact that, after all, Meiko’s magical power consumption had become too much.
“It would be fine if it just happened to be two of them at the same time, but if this started happening more often, we might be in trouble.”
Meiko’s current magic power was 72.
If she had to use three water bullets every time, as she did now, she would be slowly heading toward depletion.
“I’ll get close to the rabbits and take them down too!”
“That’s right. I’ve got a sword, too.”
“Well, I know our attack power is perfect, but I’ve never seen Pestle Rabbit’s attack. But I guess I can’t complain about that.”
We wanted to have a safety margin, but we were getting to the point where we couldn’t afford that kind of luxury.
Meiko considered this the third floor of the mountain dungeon.
Since there would be a turnaround from the top of the mountain, she guessed it was no coincidence that there were two monsters at the same time.
If there was a safety zone, we could have spent a few hours training as we did yesterday, but today we were looking for that safety zone.
Incidentally, there were none near the summit.
Since we had no choice, we decided to take out one of them as quickly as possible and try a close encounter with the second one.
And so, the next to appear was the duo of Pestle Rabbit and Japanese Doll.
“Seriously, Sasara and Ruru, take care of the doll! I’ll deal with the Rabbit!”
Now, if either of these demons had moved faster, we could have dealt with them one by one, but unfortunately, these two moved at the same speed. It was not a team play. they were originally that fast. Of course, there were some differences in the way they moved: on the ground and in the air.
Moreover, the two species had different strategies for winning, which Meiko and her team had established, so it was very troublesome when they came at the same time.
Meiko released a water bullet to pop the pestle off Pestle Rabbit.
“Nin-nin!”
At the same time, Ruru surprised Doll with a water technique, and in that split second, Sasara sliced him open with a slash sword.
“Ruru-san, take Meiko-san!”
“Meow!”
Sasara sends out instructions to Ruru, who follows up with a sickle to the Doll, which was knocked back by the slash sword.
Sasara herself then closed in on the Doll and launched a close combat with her saber.
Meiko, on the other hand, hit Pestle Rabbit’s head sideways with a grimoire attack as it began chasing after the pestle.
Ruru immediately rushed in at high speed and slit the throat of the defenseless rabbit with her sickle.
The effect of Ruru’s skill [Stand Out] made the slash’s effect shimmer. It must have been an excellent hit.
Seeing the effect, Meiko changed her role.
She quickly turned around and joined Sasara’s battle.
Meiko, who was in position to assume Doll’s back, hit Doll’s head from above with a grimoire attack in time with Sasara’s attack.
This knocked the Doll to the cobblestones, and the rest was a full-bodied battle.
After the full beating, the Doll was returned to light, and when I looked at Ruru, the battle was already over, and she was devoting her attention to vigilance of the surrounding area.
We all collect the drop and join up.
“Can we manage it?”
“But we’re going to get attacked if we’re not careful.”
Meiko nodded at Sasara’s honest declaration.
But even so, the enemy would come, and we would have to fight as hard as we could.
To reduce the consumption of magic power, the girls needed to sharpen their coordination even further.
Meiko then gazed at the neighboring mountains.
She wondered how far the search would go this time, with no return gate to be found and a safety zone in its place.
