Kind of tired, next chapter in 4-8 hours or after I sleep tomorrow sometime.

Year 7446, Month 6, Day 30

Even when completely naked I was acting cool as I warned everyone but the reply that came back was unexpected.

"He was over here! Madam, over here!"

I heard Angela's voice from behind me.
No~
I reflexively crouched down.

"I'm already!! Rather than that don't let your guard down!!"

Don't come over here.
While thinking that I cautiously scanned the surroundings. This area is a reasonable distance away from the pillar in the center and there's a considerable number of rocks around so it's difficult to see very far but even then since plenty of light is shining down you can see several tens of meters.

After remaining on guard for a short while checking the surroundings I couldn't feel the presence of any new monsters. When I turned just my head around Angela was a bit of distance away checking the surroundings.

"Angela, where's Miduchi?"

"Over here. Madam, master is calling for you."

"Is everything fine!?"

Urged on by Angela, Miduchi came running over.

"! Pe..Person..is it?"

"It's not a person, I think it's a Minotaur. It says it's a Calf-Person Race. Rather than, do you have my underwear?"

"Eh? You were able to check it's status?"

The head of the Mino's corpse at my feet has been completely messed up so from just a glance it's not as if it can't be seen as just a large person. Though the color of it's skin is brown, it's not that it can't be seen as a well tanned light brown.

However, after being told it I noticed. Come to think of it status, I was able to see it right. I tried using Identify while putting on the underwear Miduchi handed me. It's fine.

"It seems we can use our Unique Abilities...Magic as well."

Hearing that Miduchi shouted in a loud voice to everyone that we can use magic again. Since there was no contact for now that anyone encountered a new monster we hit the ceiling a bit of distance away with a {Fire Ball} and used that as a sign to gather everyone here. After all no one had seen any monsters.

"Look, he didn't even suffer any major injuries."
"That's not the problem!"

Ralpha came along while being scolded by Zenom. Since I was so desperate I forgot about it. This bastard, she was laughing seeing me fight naked with no armor or anything else.

"Hey, Ralpha, you, just now laughed right?"

"Look, isn't Al-san angry! Apologize!"
"That's right, in the first place laughing seeing master fight, what in the world were you thinking!"

After I glared at Ralpha while saying some complaints and Bel and Zulu started hitting Ralpha in the back of the head along with Zenom. Zulu brought along my boots, under armor, and rubber protectors. I took those and started putting on my under armor while waiting to hear how Ralpha was planning to reply.

"I mean, it's because he was completely naked and that place was dangling all over..In the first place, that sort of Minotaur which is just big~ there's no way Al would lose right. Everyone worries too much."

Putting aside the second half, are you really saying that? You're saying that in front of everyone? Even Gwine is acting like she couldn't hear it while facing the other way. Toris and Bausotral have started looking at me with a strange expression.

"Hey!!"
"We were telling you to apologize right!"

Zenom and Bel poked the back of Ralpha's head again. Zulu who was lining up my protectors so they're easy to wear almost turned around as well. It seems a bit difficult for those who didn't actually see the fight to participate in the conversation.

"I'm sorry for laughing."

Ralpha gave in to the attacks from all sides and lowered her head while apologizing with a surprisingly honest feel. I'm putting my socks on. After putting my socks on, I started talking while putting my boots on my feet.

"In the first place you thought since I wouldn't be done in by this sort of thing there was no need to worry right? It was funny because I was completely naked so you couldn't help but laugh right?"

My voice came out with an unexpectedly gentle voice.

"Eh? Yeah, right. There's no way you could be done in by this sort of thing. Also, it's because everyone was so worried while waiting so.."

Ralpha said with her head still lowered.
I finished tying the laces on my boots before standing up and approached Ralpha while smiling.

"So you had faith in me I see."

Hearing me gently talk to her Ralpha raised her lowered head.
And then, seeing my face Ralpha's face stiffened up.

"Like hell I could accept that you idiot?! Let me hit you once as well!"

I dropped my fist on her head and then put on the rest of the parts of my protectors that Zulu was holding.
Everyone was watching as if it was only obvious.

"Putting that aside, Maruso, please go and get the magic stone."

Miduchi requested for Angela to gather the magic stone but somehow her voice is stiff. It feels like she's pushing herself not to touch on the topic Ralpha brought up. While Angela was cutting open the Mino's chest in order to get the magic stone, I equipped my protectors but soon after some cheers were raised. Bel and Miduchi were saying, "It's a {Magic Item}!". Everyone who didn't have anything to do in the surroundings gathered at the corpse of the Mino. I even heard Ralpha's voice. There's some enjoyable laughs as well.

"Oh~ come to think of it that Mino, it had a battle axe didn't it. That, so it was a {Magical.Weapon}!

"Congratulations, master!"

Zulu seemed happy as well as he handed me each part of the protectors one after another. I could tell I was happy enough that my face was grinning as well. I struggled quite a bit when I first stabbed it with my bayonet but after that I just ran around while throwing rocks so it wasn't all that difficult at all. No, I really hit it with close to 100 rocks so you could say it was somewhat difficult though.

I tightened the string on my helmet while approaching and said, "Here, that axe, show it to me".

Huh? The axe is still laying on the side of the Mino and no one is even glancing as it. Why?

"The {Magic Item} is this, it says it's the 【Loincloth.Of.Daring】!"

Miduchi made an amused smile as she turned around.
What in the world is that?
After approaching Angela already had her hand stuck into it's chest and was struggling to tear out the magic stone and Bel was looking away with a red face while Zenom, Toris, and Basutoral were happily laughing.
Ralpha was grinning while moving her hand to flip up the underwear the Mino's corpse had on.
Gwine was saying "Stop that~" while still not looking away.

That leather loincloth was the {Magic Item}!?
I stop the idiot's unrefined behavior before she can put her hands on it while tearing off the loincloth from the Mino's waist.

【Loincloth.Of.Daring】
【Guramu Manticore's Leather】
【Condition: Normal】
【Manufacture Date: 30/6/7446】
【Value: 1】
【Durability: 9999】
【Ability: Through an increase in defensive power to the equipped location damage to the affects parts is reduced by 1 point. Also Strength and Endurance are increased by 3 points but Speed and Dexterity are locked at 2 points.】
【Effect: Equipping this increases Strength and Endurance to increase by 3 points. Simultaneously, the proficiency levels of each are increased by 3 points. However, the upper limit of Speed and Dexterity is locked to 2 points. In the case that Speed and Dexterity haven't reached that level of proficiency level then until the proficiency levels of Speed or Dexterity increase through some factor they won't grow any more. Also, through the benefit of a magic-based defense, the user will have their sense of fear dulled and no longer fall into panic. Furthermore, there is no effect on HP.】

Hn?
St..Stinksss~!

It's certainly true that it's amazing but like we could use something like this!
It's soaked with the sweat from the Minotaur.

"{Status Open}..It stinks!"

I was holding it with the tips of my fingers but since I felt a bad odor I moved my face near it to confirm and quickly threw it away.

"Judging from the name it seems like a relative of the 【Bracer.Of.Might】 I'm sure but this, is there anyone who wants to use it?"

Toris and Basutoral were both checking the status of the loincloth I threw away but it seems they were wincing from the smell the same as me.

"If we properly wash it and let it dry in the sun a number of times then I think most of the smell will fade though..I was already lent this a while back after all. I'll hold back this time."

Zenom was saying admirably while putting his hand on the axe but you too, just don't want to put on something like a monster's underwear right?

"Come to think of it Toris, what about you?"

Zenom casually said.

"Eh?"
"No!!"

Toris raised his voice in surprise and at the same time Bel rejected it. Right~
Toris was looking unpleasantly at the loincloth as well.

"I feel it's a bit off from my interests?"

While somehow showing a bit of discretion for Bel, Toris said that. It's completely unrelated to interests right. It's just simply unpleasant right. I'm the same though. Although, while the upper limit of Speed and Dexterity fall, since the proficiency level is most like how much of your ability values you can make use of, so I think overall it wouldn't actually lead to something like a decrease in abilities I think? Rather, I think as a result it would only lead to an increase in abilities. Other than that, there were some plain but effective things as well. However, the Mino was using it, simply put it's underwear. Basutoral is making a frown after smelling it and the women are just looking from a distance not even thinking of touching it.

"Zulu, do you want to use it? Of course, it's no good until we wash and clean it first though."

Just in case I tried asking Zulu. Up until now he's just been saying words of delight and congratulations and not really participated in the conversation, he didn't even try to touch the loincloth. If even he's against it then we'll quickly wash and sell it. Wouldn't it go for a considerable price? But as expected selling it right now is..Oh~ how about I try getting Rodrick to use it?

"No way..It's a {Magic Item}!? I've already been given splendid equipment to use after all.."

After all it seems he doesn't like it either. Even if it's a precious {Magic Item}...

"How about master using it? Up until now master has always loaned out the {Magic Items} to other people to use and isn't using any of them yourself right?"

Eh? He's telling me to use this? Is he saying it seriously?
I couldn't believe it hearing that Zulu who was totally loyal to me say something that borders on harassment, so I reflexively went into a daze with my mouth wide open.

"No, you, I don't want to.."

"However, it's a {Magic Item} you know!? Doesn't it sound amazing from the name we heard just now! Something like Daring, isn't it perfect for master!"

Huh? This guy, is he saying that seriously?

"That's right. It certainly stinks but isn't it fine to just wash it? Then.."

Zenom said strangely as well.
Ah, the concepts of hygiene are different between them and us reincarnated people. The fact that I couldn't completely become an Orth person was a complex of mine as well but it makes sense now they weren't even the slightest bit disappointed or depressed about it.

"In the first place, it's a waste for a slave like myself to use a {Magic Item}. This is something that master should use."

I timidly looked at Miduchi's face but she was looking pretty disgusted as well. Right.

I pushed Zulu on the back and said, "You use it. Become the number one daring man in the {Slaughterers}. I'm fine. It still hasn't even been a couple months since I got my new armor after all." and while pushing the effective but unpleasant thing on him.

"No way! It's something that's too great for me! I've never heard of something like letting a slave use a {Magic Item}!"

And he said something like that trying to show restraint. It can't be helped.

"What are you saying. Even though you're a slave you're a splendid part of our fighting power. Also, you're my head slave right? Something like a {Magic Item} you should boldly use it. In the first place think carefully about it. I'm sure this is too big for me. If it's you then wouldn't it be just a bit big? I'm sure fixing the size of a {Magic Item} is impossible right. If we carelessly try modifying it and break it then that would be a waste."

As expected hearing me say the same thing a number of times he wouldn't refuse it anymore. Zulu grabbed the smelly loincloth and was about to put it on while looking so moved he might shed tears at any moment. Seeing that in a hurry I said "Do it after washing it" and got him to give up on wearing it on the spot.

Zulu folded it up like it was the raiment of a heavenly nymph and put it into his rucksack.

After that, I took the magic stone Angela had pulled out and we all decided to investigate the room.

The magic stone was 【Magic Stone(Calf-Person Race)】 and the value with identify was easily over 500,000.
If we sell it then it's just 4,000,000 Z huh? Yeah, let's hold on to this without selling it. I think it would be best to sell it as a set together with the loincloth someday. There's no basis for it though.

After that, the battle axe the Mino used was in good condition as well and it was of a considerably high quality. I guess you could call it the so-called wazamono. Obviously we retrieved it as well. It should be fine to let Kevin or Karimu use it. Judging from the size having the Laios Karimu use it would probably match better. Though I say that it's not like it's a {Magical.Weapon} so it might be fine to sell as well. It's fine either way.

We spent a considerable amount of time searching around in hopes of finding the device that created the {Lightning Bolt} and Anti-Magic Field. I thought there might be a hole opened in the ground or ceiling but there wasn't a single like that like and we weren't able to find a single clue.

Just as expected the teleport crystal was enshrined in the room in the center of the pillar and the inside of it wasn't as bright as day but the same type of room as usual in the dungeon. We weren't able to find anything different from a normal teleport crystal room. For the time being we decided to take a break in a corner further in the room.
