Vol. 7 - Chapter 379 - Fiercer than the Dinosaurs, the cat of

It was easy to forget when there was such a harmless sight present before you, but was ultimately a dungeon. Furthermore, it's also our first Intermediate-mid dungeon.

So, I would really prefer if members could be more vigilant, but as far as I could see, it was a hopeless situation.

"Perhaps, it was a blunder to choose as the first target."

"What are you saying Zephyr? It's a huge success!"

"That's right, Zephyr-kun, look how cute these cats are."

"If only they were just cute," I thought. But I know if I say it out loud, I would become the enemy of all girls so I kept my mouth shut. Lana and Hannah already seemed to be content with just that. It would be a problem if they lost all their motivation to fight.

"A cat in the forest~

I turned around~ And there is one more cat in the forest~♪"

Ah, and there it is, they have even begun to sing! The one singing seems to be... Lulu?

What to do. We don't have all the time of the world in our hands, so I would really like to put our exploration in motion. But all the girls were having so much fun. And stealing away their fun goes against my creed!

As my expression shifted over and over, contemplating on what to do, Sierra called out to me, looking dumbfounded.

"Zephyr, let's set a time limit. Once the time is up, we shall begin with our exploration."

"Oh my goddess, Sierra!"

At the juncture of the dilemma, I saw the reflection of a goddess in Sierra. As expected of the submaster who was always there to help me, I lowered my head to her.

"Goddess, that's...... you're exaggerating, Zephyr. That much is also the work of the submaster. So there's no need to make such a big noise."

When I looked at her with a sparkling gaze, Sierra shifted her gaze and hurriedly explained. Her cheeks look a bit......flushed?

"Grrrr."

"Sierra-san is really formidable... so casually earning points......"

"I-I am not doing this for points or anything. It's just work."

"Guilty, you are obviously trying to earn the point!"Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

To Lulu, this place was no different from a zoo it seems.

Everyone felt a soothing wave washing over them seeing the bashful Lulu, except Celia, who was in her own world.

"Ah, a cat has appeared!"

"Meow!"

"Light brown calico cat, it's a . Who is interested in fighting?"

While walking, a cat-type monster, , appeared from the forest. Just one. As long as it concerned this dungeon, monsters appear alone in the shallow floor of this dungeon.

was one of the representative monster in the . It was capable of walking on two legs and equipped with one handed . As the name implies, it could also use related skill, so caution was necessary.

It was no taller than waist-length, relatively larger than the small cats in the background.

A look of excitement appeared on everyone's face, but with a single word from me, their excitement deflated.

"Are we going to fight that?"

"Meow?"

Hannah asks gingerly. For some reason, I also felt like the cat asking 'Do you wanna fight? Are you sane?'.

"Well, of course. Despite its appearance, it's a monster from the Intermediate-mid dungeon, so it is quite strong in face. Don't let yourself be deceived by its appearance."

As a matter of fact, there were more than just a few who got whooped out by . Needless to say, its cute appearance was the biggest contributor to it. Should I say everyone gets knocked out by its cuteness? It sounds more like something Lulu would triumph at.

Anyway, jokes aside, despite its appearance and being only about waist-high, it was ranked as one of the strongest monsters among other Int-mid dungeons.

In game, single monsters tend to be strong. A fair comparison would be Trolls and Cyclops in other games. The same position, however, is occupied by the cats in the . (Don't ask me why. I really wonder why a cat is stronger than a freaking dinosaur.)

"I will say it once again. Despite how it looks, that monster is incredibly strong. Don't let down your guard."

My first task was to break the illusion of their cute and harmless appearance. This wasn't the only dungeon with cute monsters we would be facing in the future. Saying "I can't beat it because it's cute" wouldn't work here!

Once they fought it, they would understand how much of a visual deception it was. It was a monster capable of one-shotting you. That's why I wanted them to fight as a party

"Alright, let's start with Team A. Team B, just watch from here."
