Chapter 106 Advanced-Level Magic
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
(Hiroya’s POV)
”Big Brother Hiroya…♡.”
Martina lays down and buries her face in my chest.
”Ouch!”
Suddenly, a sharp pain shoots through my whole body. Oh no, here it comes…
”Big Brother Hiroya, are you okay?”
”I’m not okay… the backlash… it hit me… I can’t move my body…”
I used ‘Physical Boost’ to the max, and now my whole body is sore.
”Martina, can you just use ‘Clean’ on me? I can’t stay like this…”
”You’re all sweaty and sticky! Okay, I got it!”
Martina says this with a red face and buries her face in my lap.
”Wait… what are you doing? Ah!”
With my aching body, I can only lift my head a little to see…
”First, let me use ‘Clean’ here… mmm~♡.”
…My body hurts all over, but I can’t resist…
”Make sure to finish it… lick it clean, okay? slurp~♡.”
”Who told you that?”
”Big Sister Liz~♡.”
”That ‘always-horny girl’…”
”Slurp~♡ suck~♡ kiss~♡… was that naughty?”
”Nope. More like LizGJ (Good Job)!”
”Oh~♡ it got bigger, huh?”
”…It feels good, but my body hurts too much… I can’t go for round 2…”
”Can I keep going like this?”
I nod repeatedly, enjoying Martina’s soft lips and the warm feeling inside her mouth.

(Kazumi’s POV)
”We’re almost at the floor boss of the second floor…”
Liz, walking right behind the 3 sisters, mutters.
It looks like Dorothy and Liz are really worn out after fighting 3 ogres to get here.
Especially Liz, who is struggling with close combat using a short sword… she seems to be having a tough time.
”Liz… are you okay?”
I call out from behind, but she just turns around and smiles.
”I’m the leader, you know. It’s my job to protect everyone.”
Saying that, Liz steps up to be the vanguard. She hasn’t taken any serious damage, but her leather armor is all scratched up.
”I can see it. That bright spot ahead in the corridor must be it…”
Aluda gets ready with her hammer. Following her, Eluda and Meluda also prepare their hammers.
”Liz, let Aluda and the others be the vanguard. You 3 stand in front, and support us, okay?”
”No way. You guys need to perfectly guard Kazumi and Rena. The boss fight depends on them… especially Rena’s magic is our trump card. We have to protect them no matter what.”
”Ms. Liz, that’s reckless! Eluda and the others did first aid, but that armor is reaching its limit!”
”Doro-Doro is one thing, but Liz-Liz is falling apart in close combat! Let Meluda and the others handle it…”
”It’s better if you sturdy dwarves act as the wall.”
Liz smiles, but to me, it looks like she’s forcing it. Still… there’s no point in saying anything to Liz, who is trying to fulfill her duty as a leader.
We quietly move down the corridor and check the light ahead.
”Wow… it’s so big…”
I peek in from behind the 3 sisters.
This hall is way bigger than the one on the first level.
”This place… is different from the previous dungeon…”
”I don’t sense any monsters here…”
”Rena’s ‘Detection’ isn’t picking up anything either.”
Before I knew it, we were all peering into the hall.
”There should be stairs to the third floor over there.”
Aluda points to the other side of the hall… about 50 meters away, where the corridor continues.
”There are no monsters… could there be traps?”
I look around the hall, but I can’t tell.
”Only traps… we need Martina for that.”
Liz looks up at the ceiling, thinking about something.
”Alright. I’ll go over there.”
”That’s too dangerous! Absolutely not!”
I grab Liz’s arm.
”But we can’t all go together, right?”
”But…”
Liz slowly takes my hand and… lets it go.
”Don’t worry. I’m just lucky.”
She said that with a big smile. Ah… no wonder Hiroya has a crush on her.
”Got it. I’ll leave it to you.”
”Okay. Is everyone good?”
It’s useless to stop them; everyone already knows what’s going on. They nod quietly.
”Well then, if something happens, I’ll leave the rest to you… but I doubt anything will.”
Liz winked at everyone and walked toward the hall.

(Rena’s POV)
”If she decides something, there’s no changing her mind… we just have to watch.”
I gently pat Kazumi’s head, who looks like she might cry from worry.
”Liz has her own sense of… responsibility, I guess. …Even if it’s a bit off.”
Rena starts gathering her magical power, ready to use ‘Light Arrow’ at a moment’s notice.
Seeing Rena, Kazumi seems to start gathering her magical power too.
When Liz gets closer to the center of the hall, the whole floor starts to shine.
(Is that… a teleportation circle?!)
”Liz! Something’s coming!”
Rena shouted a warning to Liz. Liz also got her short sword ready, keeping an eye on her surroundings.
The 3 sisters stepped in front of Rena and Kazumi, holding their hammers, while Dorothy pulled back her longbow.
The area around the hall glowed like the teleportation circle, and then appeared…
”Orcs?! These aren’t the usual monsters around here! And… there are so many! Everyone! Run away fast!”
Liz yelled.
The number of orcs that teleported in was way too many to count. They rushed toward Liz like a swarm.
”I’ll go! Everyone, cover me as best as you can!”
Dorothy pulled out her estoc and ran to help Liz.
”Flaming Arrow!”
”Light Arrow!”
Kazumi could shoot 5 arrows, and I could shoot ten. It might not be enough, but we have to try to reduce the number of orcs.
They pierced through the front line of orcs coming at Liz, but it didn’t feel like it made a difference.
Dorothy knocked down several orcs with her estoc, and Liz took down the orcs closing in on her with her short sword, but they were completely surrounded, and it turned into a chaotic fight.
(I can’t use powerful magic…)
”Liz! Dorothy! …Just hold on for 3 minutes, no, one minute!”
(This is the only way… I’ll finish it with advanced-level magic.)
I closed my eyes and focused, gathering as much magical power as I could.
”Eluda! Meluda! Protect Kazumi and Rena!”
I heard Aluda’s voice. She was probably going to jump into the orc crowd to help Liz and Dorothy.
(‘Lock on to all enemies’…)
Not yet… I still haven’t gathered enough magical power…

(Kazumi’s POV)
”Flaming Arrow!”
I kept casting magic. In the chaos, this was the only magic I could use that would definitely hit the target.
I focused on taking down the orcs coming at Liz. Dorothy, with Aluda’s support, was barely keeping the orcs from getting too close.
”Liz! Behind you!”
The moment my Flaming Arrow stopped, a group of orcs took the chance to sneak up behind Liz.
”Ugh!”
I turned around and slashed at one of the orcs behind her with my short sword, but Liz got grabbed by another orc.
She was pulled down, and the orcs rushed in.
”Damn it! The only one allowed to touch my body is Hiroya! Stop it!”
”Noooooo! Liz──!”
I screamed, forgetting to cast any magic.
”””Grrrroooowwwl!”””
At that moment, a white shadow jumped out from behind me.
It charged straight into the group of orcs that had surrounded Liz.
”Snow Wolves?!”
Three Snow Wolves swept through the orc crowd.
In an instant, the orcs around Liz were cleared away. They stood in front of Liz, growling to protect her.
Dorothy was using Protection magic while trying to fight alongside Aluda. But the orcs were slowly closing in.
”Flaming Arrow!”
Liz left it to the Snow Wolves, and I supported Dorothy and Aluda. But finally, Aluda got caught by an orc.
”Ms. Aluda! Ah!”
In that moment, Dorothy got knocked down by a few orcs that jumped at her.
In an instant, the two of them were surrounded.
”We’re going too, Eluda!”
”Yeah!”
With serious faces, the two of them nodded and ran off.
”Done! Lock on all targets! Light Arrow: Full Fire!”
Rena opened her eyes and shouted loudly.
Countless Light Arrows shot out from Rena’s body. They hit many orcs, taking them down one by one.
It happened so fast.
All the orcs were defeated in an instant, and only we were left standing in the hall.

”This is a terrible sight… Haha.”
Liz laughed while covering her exposed chest with her hands, her leather armor destroyed and her underwear torn.
”Yeah… but we’re alive.”
Dorothy’s leather armor was completely wrecked, showing off her lower belly tattoo.
”I thought we were totally done for…”
Aluda, with tears in her eyes, was in a similar situation, trying to cover her chest with both hands.
”…This is quite a revealing outfit now…”
I wiped my tears and smiled as I replied.
”Right? What do you think? Do you think I can charm Hiroya?”
Liz struck a pose and winked, showing off her chest.
”Can Aluda do it too?”
Aluda posed the same way next to Liz.
”Yeah. He’d probably jump right in.”
I laughed, but the tears kept coming.
”I’m so glad everyone is safe…”
”Rena… you saved us. Thank you.”
Liz patted Rena’s head.
”You really held on well… I’m so glad…”
Rena said this with a smile before collapsing.
”Rena?!”
”I’m fine… I just used too much magical power… so…”
”I’ll carry you. Here.”
Liz picked Rena up on her back.
”Thank you all so much.”
I petted the Snow Wolves, who were sitting in a line.
”Alright! Let’s head to the third floor!”
That’s right. Everyone was hurt, but we had to meet up with Hiroya and Martina.
We left the hall and headed down the corridor.
