“Yo, excuse me for intruding.”
My companions Nina, Clarice, and I couldn’t help but tilt our heads. Before us stood a handsome angel, unlike any we had ever seen.
“Oh my, surprised by my good looks? I’m quite the ladies’ man in the Angel Race village, though it’s all females there!”
“Um, who might you be?”
“My name is Lamao, the toughest fighter in the Angel Race!”
“Ah, so that’s who was left. He does seem like he’d be popular with the ladies.”
“Um, this is…”
“Lord Ange, I will explain the situation here.”
“Ah, Helen, please do.”
Only Nastasia was missing now. I wondered what had happened.
“All adventurers who were on the lower floors have been safely rescued.”
“That’s good to hear. You managed to outmaneuver those strong enemies.”
“Yes, my succubi were supposed to hold off the three minibosses, but they ended up defeating them.”
Helen’s high-ranking succubi… Incredible!
“You defeated them with just your succubi?”
“Yes, and even the Demon Lord’s Stone Succubus…”
“Ah, you took it down from behind with one hit, right?”
“It was more of a ‘Zshaa!'”
Ange’s peculiar explanation aside…
“After that, the assassins infiltrated quickly, so while we were defeating the remaining enemies… we wiped them all out, except for the slimes.”
“What, all of them?!”
“Yes, all of them. We deliberately left only the slimes.”
“Why would you do that?”
“If we don’t, they won’t sprout anymore!”
“Sprout?”
“What Lord Ange means is that if we don’t defeat new bosses as they appear, the tower will no longer manifest on the ground, and it will cease to be a dungeon.”
“So that’s why you left them. I suppose with time, new Demon Lords and Stone Slimes will be born.”
“And what about everyone else?”
“They’ve disbanded. It was quite a struggle for Natsu-nee to take Shusher with her.”
“That lewd assassin rabbit!”
“I… did it!”
“But you sent her back safely, didn’t you? That’s good.”
“So, this ridiculously cool angel, um, Lamao?”
“Ah, if you insist, I don’t even mind scattering this white body of mine.”
“Whoa, Helen, don’t try to pluck his wings!”
“Eek!”
Pulling out feathers would be gentle; she looked like she was about to rip off his entire wings from the roots…
(Ah, the handsome guy is trembling!)
“So, what business does this fallen angel have here?”
“When I was escorting Amari back to the mansion, he was there. He said he could help with aerial combat if possible, claiming to be the strongest in the Angel Race.”
“Even so, it’s the strength of an Angel Race. It’s probably on the level of ‘the most beautiful Orc,’ you know? No, what kind of example was that, even as I was thinking it!”
“Nina?”
“If he excels at evasion, we could use him as a diversion, but…”
“I… I’ll do anything! Just please don’t do anything horrible to me, like what happened to Lilia!!”
(Who did what kind of punishment to her without my knowledge?!)
“Well, it’s a pending matter. Helen, is there anything else?”
“Yes, we had the Goddess Succubus wear the ‘Fairy Ring’ in the dungeon.”
“Did it level up?”
“She learned Healing Magic… and Resurrection Magic.”
It’s finally here!!
“Ho, that’s impressive.”
“It’s a powerful magic for living targets, capable of healing even lost limbs.”
“How long does it take for the deceased?”
“We haven’t tested it extensively, but the limit appears to be four and a half minutes.”
It’s quite strict, but if we think about it the other way, even instant death can be revived if we’re close enough.
“That’s what he says, Deles.”
“I’d like to try that out in various ways. There should be a enslaved person with missing limbs in the underground of Shucco. Let’s buy them and test it.”
“If it’s just to heal, we can try it without buying. The shop owner probably won’t mind.”
Yes, it’s like a volunteer activity.
“Hey, hey, Deles~”
“What is it, Ange?”
“I want to go into that big castle next door!”
“Here we go again! Is it already time for that?!”
“I must explain that.”
“Allow me.”
“Ah, yes, please do.”
Clarice then explained everything that had happened so far. But why was Lamao listening so intently?!
(But if it’s far above, it seems the enemies won’t come. For transportation, maybe there’s a chance?!)
He’s a bit slender, but floating is dependent on magic power. If he can carry an Item Bag, he might be useful as a transporter here when Ange and the Illusionist are absent. If it’s high enough in the sky, those enemies shouldn’t be able to reach us either.
“…And that’s the flow of events that led to Nina Starlights rejoining us.”
“Am I included in that too?”
“No!!”
Ah, I blurted it out without thinking. Nina glared at me with a rather intimidating expression.
“Lamao, for now, you should go back. We’ve understood your enthusiasm.”
“Y-yes… As expected, I can’t help it. I’ll come back another time.”
“Alright, then Clarice and Ange will create a Teleportation Magic Circle for this villa anew.”
…We should probably create one for the Zazam Guild too. Did we check if there was a proper installation spot? Mogunami might end up being overworked with the maintenance.
(Ah, I wonder what expression Helen would have if she saw Mogunami…)
It seems like it would be troublesome if it involved me.
