Having received the Intelligence Sword from Ahato, we decided to dive into the labyrinth that same day.
According to Fiona, thanks to that loli Vampire called Paimon or whatever, the Transfer Magic Formation became unusable and we now had to go down each and every floor.
「Haa……We aren’t advancing very far. We’re still around the sixth floor, weren’t we?」
「Correct. With just a bit more, we’ll be at the staircase to the seventh floor.」
While looking at the map that was written in the book, Fiona replied with a cold answer.
The current situation is that it’s already been half a day since we dove into the labyrinth, and although we’ve continued on with a forced march, each and every floor of the labyrinth was vast. Even though we continued on through the shortest paths, we still were continuing through the shallower floors.
Even with an understanding of the geography and it being floors where the monsters are weak, it was like this.
If we’re talking about getting to around floor 30, it would probably take even more time.
「Man~, we have quite a lot of raw monster materials. With this, by the time we get to the lowest floor, it feels like we’ll be able to make a fortune.」
「Anego, what should we do with the Magic Stones with low purity?」
「You nitwit! Whenever you call out to me, call me using Captain! Gather anything that can be changed into money, no matter how small the profit will be!」
In the middle of when I was thinking about what would happen from here on out, the Three Stooges were devoted to collecting the raw materials of the monsters that we defeated.
No, well, it’s not like we’re going to use the raw materials but, going by their joyful appearances as they gathered those materials, they seemed more like hard working volunteers picking up trash after a summer festival rather than pirates.
Our spirits would go up for anything other than that.
「Oi, shitty brat! Just how long are ya goin’ ta be holdin’ on to me! Either sheathe me into the scabbard or, ……Nufufu, let me have a talk with Bernadette-chan!」
「This damned perverted sword……」
This was an Intelligence Sword that we borrowed from Ahato, but despite it being a sword, it had a broken condition of being lustful for women, and for a while now, it’s been really annoying, telling me to let Bernadette hold it, or to let Bernadette use it.
「Who’re you callin’ a perverted sword! I told ya that my name is『Ravenbrand』!」
「Shut up! It’s enough to just call you a perverted sword! More like, it’s too cool for you to have a name despite not having any considerable ability!」
「What was that!? Bluntly goin’ on about things that a person is bothered about!」
「You’re not a person, you’re a sword!」
With this kind of tone, our quarrelling hasn’t stopped for a while.
If it was going to be like this, I should have gone with the Ice Sword.
「Aniki, there are monsters again. Coming from right in front……Number of them is, seven.」
Kuon, who was walking at the head of the party, pulled out a kunai from who knows where, stuck her finger in the ring at the end of the handle and started spinning it around.
「Alright, perverted sword, it’s time for work.」
「Hmph. Workin’ me hard over some small fry.」
「It’s because the feeling I get when using you isn’t bad. Though I do need earplugs.」
Lowering my waist, I took a stance where the perverted sword I was holding with both hands was horizontal to the ground.
「Now then……, I’ll take the two on the left. Kuon, you take the five on the right.」
「Eh, wait, Yashiro-aniki, haven’t you been taking it easy for a while now!?」
As I was about to run off after seeing the group of monsters that appeared from the darkness, Kuon shouted out seeming confused.
