(215) Side Story Garrison’s Adventure Diary 2

Translator: Tseirp

And so, for some strange reason, I was going to the Beginner’s Dungeon with a pickaxe and a sewing needle .

For starters, I bought a collar from the Adventurers Guild first .

Incidentally, a pickaxe was considered to be a type of sword . Before I became an Apprentice Spearman, I raised my Apprentice Swordsman level too so I had the Equip Sword skill . If I didn’t have it, I wouldn’t even be able to swing the pickaxe properly .

“- – Hn?”

While walking down the main street, I saw an unusual girl and inadvertently looked back .

A young girl with white hair and dog ears – – no, wolf ears .

(White Wolf Race huh? … If she’s with Master Mathias then that means she is a slave . )

The Demon Lord has already been dead for 10 years .

The discrimination towards the White Wolf Race had pretty much diminished . During the war with the Demon Race, the White Wolf Race was split into two factions . One faction fought together with the Demon Lord while the other fought alongside the Hero .

After the war, the lucky White Wolf Races on the Demon Lord side became slaves . The unlucky ones were executed . Among the ones that fell into slavery, apart from those who were released by their master’s compa.s.sion, a great majority of them were never released from slavery until death .

(At least I hope she was bought by a good master . )

As I didn’t have the leeway to buy a slave .

“Garrison, what’s wrong?”

After walking quite far ahead, Jofre turned back and shouted loudly .

I found it troublesome to reply so I slowly walked to chase up to Jofre and Elize .

“I just find it amazing that you guys can be so carefree . ”

I complained with a tired voice .

“Oh, thank you, Garrison . ”

“Thanks, Garrison . ”

Idiots who can’t understand sarcasm .

There was a Vigilante group man standing guard at the entrance to the Beginner’s Dungeon so I just lightly bowed towards him .

Then, we arrived at the first floor of the Beginner’s Dungeon .

“Our levels are still low . I would want to raise our levels by at least 1 before we encounter the goblin king . ”

I said as I turned back – – and there was no one there .

“ … Ha?”

It has only been about 3 minutes since we entered the labyrinth . Why are they already lost?

For starters, I quickly left the labyrinth and asked the Vigilante man if Jofre and Elize left the labyrinth . He said that Jofre and Elize definitely entered the labyrinth with me and they had not left .

If that’s the case, it meant that they took the left path instead of the right path at the very first fork when going down the stairs . Or perhaps they found a hidden pa.s.sage and went down that path . Of course, for the first floor which has been investigated thoroughly, the probability of a hidden pa.s.sage was astronomically small . A pa.s.sage like that might be possible from the 5th floor onwards .

Having requested that they are held in the guardroom if Jofre and Elize returned, I proceeded in the direction I a.s.sumed they went towards .

However, I quickly came upon a junction .

Those two would never use reasoning for their consideration on which path to take . Even if they did, they were the type to take the path that was the exact opposite of that reasoning .

I might as well abandon them, I thought to myself .

– – No, if I am to abandon them, I will not be at ease until I ascertain their death with my own eyes!

If I leave them behind thinking that they died and they came back alive a week later, they definitely would have caused some kind of problem and I would be forced to clean up after their mess .

I desperately looked for Jofre and Elize .

That was when I saw –

“A kobold!”

A dog-like monster that runs on two feet and was slightly smaller than humans . They are deemed a low-level monster but apart from combat professions, they are threatening monsters to Commoners . Their agility was higher than an ordinary Commoner so escaping it would be difficult if it started chasing . Even as an Apprentice Spearman, there was a high chance that it would catch up to me if I showed my back and ran .

Since that’s the case, there’s only one option . The first to move wins!

I checked my own neck to make sure I had the collar on .

The weapons held by Kobolds were mostly tree branches and fallen rocks . Also, their agility was high but that doesn’t mean that their evasion ability was superior so in a one-versus-one with a sword or a pickaxe like I was holding in hand, there was no chance of losing . Even if they resorted to biting, Kobolds only bite the arms, shoulder and neck . With the collar to protect my neck, I won’t be killed instantly so as long as I remained calm, I won’t lose even if I lost the initiative .

For that reason, it was commonplace for people to buy collars like me when going into labyrinths with numerous Kobolds .

I heaved the pickaxe up and swung it down on the head of the approaching Kobold .

The sensation of crus.h.i.+ng the skull was transmitted to my hands through the handle – – I could not get used to that feeling no matter how many times it happens but it also came with a sense of relieve . That sensation was definite proof of killing a monster .

“My level … didn’t rise . ”

Level ups don’t happen so easily .

I knew that but I wanted to quickly become stronger .

The Kobold corpse and its blood that splattered on me disappeared and all that was left was a small purple magic stone at my feet .

I placed the magic stone in my tanned leather bag .

The fact that the Kobold was there meant that Jofre and Elize did not take that path . I can’t imagine them slipping past a pa.s.sage with a Kobold there – – I thought to myself when I suddenly heard footsteps approaching me from ahead .

Was that perhaps Kofre and Elize? I thought but I was wrong .

“Hn? Ah, Norn-chan . ”

She was a girl with blue short hair and brown skin . I met her multiple times in the labyrinth .

“You’re alone?”

“Yes, it’s training for the Vigilante group . ”

“Oh right, Norn-chan entered the Vigilante group . ”

The Vigilante group desired strength . Apprentice Swordsman and Apprentice Spearman can raise levels just by doing practice swings but it was more efficient to defeat monsters . For that sake, the Vigilante group would patrol the labyrinth once every three days and level up at the same time .

Incidentally, first-year recruits of the Vigilante group are sent to search for enemies in the labyrinth as training and only receive half their salary . Although their regular task which was to guard the labyrinth does not change .

“Garrison-san too, it’s rare to see you alone . Jofre-san and Elize-san came to the labyrinth too . ”

“You saw them!?”

“Yes, they were chatting as they went down the stairs leading to the second floor . ”

“Really!? Thanks!”

I thanked her and quickly sprinted off .

Those idiots, why are they going to the second floor?

Have they not noticed that I’m not there!?
