The day when Hajile with the scorpion

Kouki’s group, the Hero party has once again caroup, and a sirls were lead by Nagayauy

The reason was simple Even if they did not talk about it, Hajily felt his "Death in Battle", and this ht Trauma had struck them

Of course, they did not concern the Church with this If they could experience actual coain Everyday they urged themselves to return their past selves However, Aiko-sensei protested what they were doing

Aiko did not participate in the expedition Her class was the rare and special "Faret involved with the agricultural development If it was Aiko-sensei, she would be able to solve their food issues

She had fallen asleep in her bed after she got the news of Hajime’s death While she stayed in the safety of the city, her student had died They would not be able to return to Japan with everyone For Aiko-sensei who had such a strong sense of responsibility, it was shocking

Therefore, she wasn’t going to allow her students into the battlefield anye this world’s whole food issue That Aiko-sensei was protesting the training the students were getting with indo to worsen their relationship, the church gave into her protests

As a result, there were rogues who trained theo’s party Because they wanted to challenge "Orcus Dungeon" again This tihts attended

This was the 6th day of their journey into the dungeon They were currently at the 60th level Just 5 levels behind the highest recorded achieveroup was stuck No, rather than not being able to advance, they kept getting nighth it was a different cliff than the one that day, it still had a sie that hung on the cliff to advance into the next level There was no problem per se, but they still remembered In particular, Kaori, did not move while she started into the darkness of the abyss

"Kaori…"

The worried call ca gaze at the view, and gave Shizuku a sht, Shizuku-chan"

"I see…Please don’t overdo it No need to be reserved with ave a best friend a slow There were no despair or escapishtful Shizuku that were sensitive to the subtleties of hu the truth

(For sure, Kaori is strong)

Hajime’s death was almost a certainty It was lukewarm to saw he survived However, it wasn’t denial or escapis herself to press forward, and Shizuku felt proud of her best friend

However, the person with the hero-like quality couldn’t read theover Hajime’s death as she stared into the bottoentle Kaori was suffering fro his thoughts, and he believed the sht Hajime was special Kouki had not even for a bit believed that there was a chance for survival He tried to offer co words to Kaori

"Kaori…I like your kindness But you can’t always be caught up in your classmate’s death You have to umo-kun would want"

"Wait, Kouki…"

"Be silent Shizuku! Even if I’m severe, don’t try to stop ht I’m by your side I won’t die I won’t let anyone else die I promise not to make Kaori sad anymore"

"Haaa…as usual so reckless…Kaori…"

"Haha, it’s all right, Shizuku-chan…I understand what Kouki-kun is trying to say Its fine"

"I see, you understand!"

Kaori couldn’t help but s Even if she told hih to him Hajime had already died in Kouki’s mind He wouldn’t be able to understand that the reason she was training so hard and taking this expedition into the dungeon, was because she believed Hajime survived Kouki’s nature was to not doubt what he believed in The boy would just take Kaori’s feelings as denial of reality They had known each other for a long time, so Kaori was familiar with how Kouki operated That is why both of theht those words were the only way to completely persuade her, he had no ulterior motive in those words Kaori and Shizuku was used to his behavior, but other girls would have fallen for him with his sweet ood personality and skills would have his girl childhood friend admire him Shizuku had been in the adult dojo since she was sht she knew that Kouki’s sense of justice could be a shortcos than a childhood friend was not born in her The other party was the same

Shizuku had often told Kaori that was dense when it came to love, so Kouki’s behavior had no effect on hier He was a good person and an is

"Kaori-chan, I’ll cheer you on If you need anything just ask ht, Suzu is always Kaori’s ally"

On the side they had heard Kouki’s conversation Taniguchi Suzu and Nakah school, these two had become close friends with Kaori They had joined the party lead by Kouki

They understood what Kaori felt on that day Hajime disappeared, so they supported her decision

"Yeah, Eri-chan, Suzu-chan, Thank you"

Kaori sh school

"Oh~…Kaorin is brave~, Nagumo-kun! To make Suzu and Kaori-chan this sad! If you aren’t alive, Suzu will kill you!"

"S-Suzu? I don’t think you can kill him if he isn’t alive"

"Don’t worry about the details If he is dead, we can just use Eririn’s necromancy for Kaorin"

"S-Suzu, you have no delicacy Kaori-chan believes Nagumo-kun is alive Also, my necromancy…"

Suzu runs wild and Eri admonishes That’s their normal behavior Kaori and Shizuku showed a joyful expression at the two’s spectacle Even though Kouki wasn’t that far, he didn’t hear the conversation Naturally, Kouki was equipped with a hearing loss skill that always activates when there were important conversation or words

"Eri-chan, I don’t h Eri is troubled"

Suzu puffed her cheeks when Kaori and Shizuku laughed as they said those words Eri was relieved when Kaori didn’t take Suzu’s words seriously Her face blenched at the ood? Such a special class…"

"…Yeah, sorry If I was able to use it properly, it would be such great help…"

"Eri, anyone have strong and weak points You have such a high aptitude to ic, so don’t worry about it"

"That’s so, Eri-chan Even if its your class, there are preferences and fields of talent Your precise and accurate ic is helpful for us"

"Yeah, I’ll overcorasps her small hands into a fist to express her deter: "That’s the spirit, Eririn!" in this situation Shizuku and Kaori smiled at their friend’s perseverance

Eri’s class was "Necroic is used that is associated with the spirits and consciousness This kind of ic was able to cast bad status (debuffs) in battle Necroic; it acted upon the residual thoughts of the dead There were a few priest in the Church that practiced it The priest drew up the residual thoughts of the dead and conveyed them to their bereaved faic The real power of this hts of the dead a corpse to ith and controlling theh the revived dead will display deteriorated level of skill from their ti humans too

These puppets only respond to a certain extent They also are very inanihost In addition, she felt ethically wrong in using dead people like this Eri choose not to delve into this part of the arts
