Volume 7 Chapter 15: Kind of Overkill
The next day, Keith woke up and prepared some breakfast for everyone. It was a simple egg and sausage breakfast. He sipped some coffee and decided, "We're going to head down to the second floor."
"Understood." After finishing breakfast, the group headed down to the second floor. And when they arrived,
"The grasses are so tall." They weren't grasses; it was more like a giant yellow forest.
"Stick closer to one another. We don't want to get lost." One look and Keith could tell that one would get lost if they strayed away. From the information, getting to the third floor was simple: a straight line.
"Understood." The others stick close.
"Herrick, Leona, I will leave you guys to be our ears. Tell me if there's anything you hear off around here,"
"Understood." The two beastman nodded. Like that, everyone headed into the grass. Treading, they could only hear the sounds of grass rustling around.
"Hold." Keith raised his hand. When he did, the rest paused.
"What do you hear, Herrick, Leona?"
"I hear only grass rustling."
"Same here."
The two could only hear the grass and nothing more. But that caused Keith to frown, "There's definitely something here. But my mana sense could only catch a glimpse." He used mana sense to search, but it quickly moved. The target was blurred, making it unable to be perceived.
Interesting. Keith looked around but was unable to sense them either. However, he could hear it. The thing was getting closer to them.
"Interesting. Attack it all at once!" The group charged at the serpent. A rain of explosions and slicing came forward.
"Guys, I don't think you should go all at once. It's kinda overkill." Keith scratched as he watched the scene. Even he felt a little sad for the monster. He just got attacked by a couple of behemoths!
It never expected something like that.
"Come on, Keith. There's really nothing here. And it had been quite the ghost town." Herrick waved. Besides the sneakiness they had, it was simple to deal with.
"..." True. That was what made it a little surprising. There weren't any monsters here who could deal with them. Those snakes might try to be sneaky, but they did not expect the group to have so many sensory people here.
But this feels so weird. Keith scratched his head. Even if they were strong students, defeating B-rank monsters left and right didn't seem right. It was a little overkill.
"We're collecting!" Scarlet commented. It was time to collect all of them.
"Hmm, there's also something here," Alfia called out. Besides the giant grass blocking their way, there was also something smaller in the ground. It was a brown branch sticking from the ground.
"Ohh! New herb!" That brightened up his day!
"By the way, Keith. Should we summon them?"
"Hmm?" Keith blinked and then nodded, "We can call them in. This would be perfect."
