Chapter 56
“T-Thank you so much for saving us!”
“Y-You’re saved our life!!”
After coming to their senses, the two of them bowed their heads and thanked me.
“This is no big deal. But more importantly, are you okay with that injury?”
I pointed to the explorer’s leg, who was bleeding.
“I-I’m fine… It’s just a flesh wound… I don’t think any bones are broken.”
“I can use magic to heal it right awa… oh, no, nevermind! I see… as long as the wound isn’t too deep, that’s good.”
“……?”
That was close.
I was about to use magic to heal them by instinct.
But if the injury isn’t life-threatening, there’s no need to use magic to heal it.
Sorry, but I would rather have them receive treatment after returning back on the surface.
“Yo–you’re look really strong? Are you perhaps an intermediate-rank explorer?”
One of them asked.
I nodded.
“That’s right, but what about you guys?”
“W-We’re low-level explorers…”
“Yeah… actually…”
“Low-level explorers…? Isn’t this floor inappropriate for your skill level?”
According to the Explorer’s Center, the appropriate floors for low-level explorers range from the first to the fifth floor.
Entering floors beyond that significantly increases the risk of death for low-level explorers.
This was the 6th floor, which is beyond their appropriate floor level.
Why did they even think of entering here in the first place?
“W-We kind of got a little carried away… things have been going well lately, so we thought maybe we could handle it even if we go a little forward from here…”
“And the result was… as you can see.”
“I see…”
Judging from their downcast expressions, they must have realized their true abilities enough after this incident.
They probably won’t venture beyond their appropriate floor level anymore.
There’s no need for me to add anything.
“Well then, I’ll be on my way now.”
“W-Wait a minute!!”
“We have a favor to ask of you!!”
As I tried to leave, the two of them stopped me.
“P—Please can you help our friend…?”
“Friend…?”
“Yeah… we’re a three-men clan, but one of us decided to act as a decoy and stayed…!! I think he might still be alive and needing help, he is just a little ahead!!”
“Because the guy’s pretty though, I think he might be still holding up…! Please, we’ll reward you if needed, so please save him!!”
“What!? Someone got left behind!?”
“T-That’s right! Can you please help him!!”
“Otherwise… if it is known that he got killed instead, we’ll be eliminated by the conglomerate…”
“T-The conglomerate…? I don’t really understand, but anyway, that just means you have a clan-member who decided to get left behind right?”
“T-That’s right.”
“Y-Yeah.”
“Then say that sooner!!”
“!!?”
I scolded the two of them and started running deeper and deeper into the dungeon.
*Geez.
If I had known someone was left behind, I wouldn’t have wasted so much time chatting there.
While hoping that their friend who acted as the decoy is still alive, I ran towards the depths of the dungeon as fast as possible.
