T.N: Here a chapter as I was procrastinating from the busy IRL. I could probably translate more next month(Don’t trust me though).

PS: I guess this chapter is worth celebrating for?

Chapter 57: Negotiation

The adventurer's fight with the Dungeon master continues. It seems that the two fighter in the adventurer's party have no recovery means, as they've been leaving their injury since a while ago. Although they might have the potion, as expected there might not be enough time for them to take it out from the tool bag with this fierce fight.

The damage started to become serious, and I know that the right time has almost come. I prepared the explosion magic, and hardened the image to just hit the ground in their center. However, unfortunately at that time my eyes met with the bearded adventurer that is receiving the enemy's attack and retreated.

"Oi!, there's someone there!" (Man)

The female wizard reacted to the man's voice, and instantly shot the magic that she was going to hit the enemy with towards us. I cancel my attack at that moment and build up an earth wall to block our front. Although some of the flame balls are blocked by the wall, the one that fly over flew a short distance before blowing up in flames. I went out at once in front of everyone with my shield. Ouch, this flame is really hot.

"Gaah! That hurt dammit!" (Est)

My skin peeled off in an instant. Although I've suffered a considerable burn, I cast healing magic at once to heal my wound. Combined with my HP Recovery skill, the wound is cured in an instant.

Having thrown that magic at us, the Dungeon Master is not so naive to completely ignore that defenseless female wizard. It has already finished preparing large amount of ice arrow and began shooting, pouring down towards the female wizard. The woman has no time at all to raise her cane to defend with magic, thus some of the ice arrows pierced through her body. It seems that she's losing her consciousness as she collapsed weakly in place.

"Ann!" (Man)

"Ann! Open your eyes, Ann!" (Woman)

It seems that Ann is that female wizard's name. Ann didn't get up even when those two adventurers called her. Although I'm sure that she isn't dead yet as she let out small moans sometimes, it will be life-threatening if she's not treated soon.

There's no meaning even if we hide right now. When we rush into the room, I ran towards the place where Ann just fell.

"Oi! What do you plan on doing to Ann!?" (Man)

I ignore the shout of that man and apply Healing magic on the female wizard. Although her wounds are blocked at the moment, I stopped it when she recovered to some extent. With this she would barely avoid dying.

"…what is the meaning of this?" (Man)

That man asked me without taking his eyes off the Dungeon Master. I simply changed my policy. It will be hard for just the two of them to fight against us. Not to mention they're taking a considerable damage right now. Therefore, this allows for me to negotiate. While checking both sides and prepared my weapon, I decided to make a proposal.

"Our only purpose is the ring. I have no intention of taking life as long as I managed to get it. Therefore let’s negotiate. Hand over the ring to us. I'll help you if you do that." (Est)

"Don't joke around! That is the what we came here for! I've already gotten the advance payment!" (Man)

"Then, what are you going to do? Against the Dungeon Master and us, will you be able to survive fighting against them and us at the same time? I'll provide minimum treatment if you hand over the ring. I think that is better than complete annihilation." (Est)

The man glanced alternately between me and Ann that is falling at my feet. He might think that I'll make her hostage if he refused. Although I have no intention of going that far, I have no intention of correcting whatever he thought I might do. Although he was hesitating for a moment, the man bit his lip till it is stained with blood, and then open his mouth with bitter expression.

"…Understood. That is fine. Let's give up on the ring." (Man)

"Stryner! Is that really okay!?" (Woman)

"There's no other way. Nothing can be compared to the life of a friend." (Stryner)

I guess I could be temporarily relieved with this? Although I can’t completely trust them, for now our only enemy is the Dungeon Master.

"So it's a deal!" (Est)

As soon as I said that, I shot the Lightning Magic that I've prepared towards the Dungeon Master that is holding a cane. Although it's possible to react in case of like the Flame Magic that Ann used, Lightning Magic is different. It is literally at the speed of light. Other magicians might have been able to expect it by reading the aria of the magic. However, they won’t be able to read mine since there's no chanting for me. The lightning that I shoot hits the enemy at the same time that I cast it. An intense spark created around its body.

Claire shoot a few more arrows at the same time it hit. Several small explosions occurred. The Dungeon Master lose half of its face, and its body starting to turn to dust and dissolve in the air. That's one down.

"Haaaah!" (Stryner)

At the same time when the female warrior cut the enemy's large shield, that man called Stryner sneaks around behind the enemy with the shield trying to attack it. Although the Living Mail with the large sword stood in the way trying to block it, it received Shallie's quick attacks forced it to retreat.

As I've already killed one of them, I used the sword clad in lightning on the Living Mail to stop its movements. When it avoid my sword without touching it, the Gnome that Diabell had summon attack its foot causing it to lose balance. While it tried to regain its posture, with me in front and Shallie came slashing from the back at the same time, the Living Mail crumbled as if it had its strings cut. That's two down.

We might have not be able to defeat it like this if they were in perfect condition, but they can be easily defeated right now because of the serious damage that Stryner's party had done. While we deal with the enemies, it seems that Stryner had also finished with that enemy with the large shield.

Stryner is not in a state where his wounds would recover. It doesn’t seems that they've level up from defeating that one. I check my own party and all of us have recovered completely. I could feel that I've level up from that battle.

"It's over. Then allow me to collect the ring first." (Est)

I faced the pedestal while holding my weapon carefully. If they tried to do anything strange, I wont hesitate to shower them with Lightning Magic without mercy. On closer look, it looks just like a normal ring. However the quantity of magic power that I feel from it is enormous, enough to send me the chill. I'm sure the emperors would have successively borrow the power of this ring and ruled the country.

We didn’t let our guards and observed Stryner's party who are full of scratches. Particularly that woman who's heavily bleeding. There's tiny holes in several parts of her body. Her bleeding doesn't stop. That injuries is due to the weapon called estoc. Since it's probably that female wizard called Ann is the one in charge of healing, right now they might not have any recovery means. Although I momentarily thought of just abandoning them, I can’t really be the devil here. I will provide them minimum treatment just as promised.

I closed their wounds with healing magic while keeping my distance. Since there's no clear injury on Stryner, just barely treating that two woman should be enough. After I've healed Ann whom I've left unattended just now, we slowly moved towards the exit.

"I've cured you to the point that you could managed on your own. Although I'm closing this door to prevent you from chasing us, you should be able to get out once that female wizard's consciousness returns." (Est)

The moment we went out of the exit, I can see from the space of the closing door that Stryner is trying to rush towards us.

"W-wait!" (Stryner)

However I just ignore him and build up earth wall one after another. Since I keep on creating earth wall whenever I retreat, it would be pretty hard to destroy this with just the power of a human. He's going to need considerable amount of time to destroy this without magic. This should be enough to restrict them.

We have no other disturbance as we head towards the exit. Although that was a pretty dangerous scene, it is pretty well done for us to avoid any death. Anyway, with this the request is complete. When I confirm our status, all of us have level up.

[T.N: No idea why, but I think the author forgot to put Diabell's Summon Spirit of Water since 2 chapters ago. It's not my fault, can't find it in the raws too.]

I thought that I would be able to obtain another title since I defeat 2 Dungeon Master this time, but it seems to be no good. Is it because we're not the only one defeating it? It's regrettable but it can’t be helped. Let’s work hard so that we can defeat it alone if there's another opportunity.

Only Shallie managed to raise 4 level at once this time. Her Evasion has improved too. I'm sure that she would continue to grow up to be a stronger swordsman.

This time I'll take 『Luck Up』. for some reason when I compare it with the other members, when we're fighting, it seems that I'm the only one that is detected by the enemy, which is not a good thing. I think I can kind of understand it, the Luck in the status is not really shown in your everyday life for some reason, but for the hit rate and choice and the fight in the dungeon, and also the enemy detection rate is associated with it. Lets just assume that my bad luck would improve from now on.
