Volume 7 Chapter 356 - A Rude Kid
"Aika\'s change, on the other hand, might not be obvious, but her improvement should be the best… After all, of all three of them, she\'s the most normal. With this, she shouldn\'t treat anything like a game anymore as a means of escape, nya."
"Right… It\'s really bad that she isn\'t taking reality seriously… There are other ways of making her realize that, but I guess, this is really the most effective method… And we didn\'t have to do it multiple times."
Kuroka then started chuckling, "But after all of those, I really look forward to Kisuke\'s reactions, nya~. That guy, despite being such a smartass, is not really very good with the man and woman relationships. Kisuke is probably thinking that the girls will be hating his guts after this."
"Well… I can\'t deny that… Master is really strangely slow in this type of thing… However, after this, he won\'t be able to find any reason to push them away anymore."
As they are talking, they soon reached the 5th floor when they suddenly felt a movement from the ground, "Hmm?" Both Medusa and Kuroka stopped to watch their surroundings carefully.
"Something is drilling from below?" Medusa muttered.
"It\'s coming this way, fast… Did you attract it when you used your abilities?" Kuroka asked.
"I don\'t know… But that\'s probably it… However, it seems that it can\'t pinpoint my location, although it\'ll still reach the 5th floor in a few seconds."
Just as they expected, they felt a small tremor but along with it, they also heard a scream of terror, "This is bad, nya!"
Medusa immediately launched herself towards the source of the scream while also taking out her scythe. A few seconds later, after turning a corner, she saw a white-haired Adventurer being chased by a gigantic snake, "A Worm Well?" Medusa recalled the information about this monster that seems to drill through the Dungeon but they shouldn\'t have come on the Upper Floors. But when she \'saw\' that the snake monster immediately locked on her, she became sure, \'So it came for me… I feel sorry for that kid, so I should end this.\'
With the Adventurer and the snake coming towards her direction, Medusa threw her scythe towards the snake, but the snake easily dodged it. However, with a pull of her chains, she immediately recalled the scythe and the snake didn\'t even notice its blade is already on the back of its head before it was beheaded.
The white-haired Adventurer, who\'s below the snake, was bathed with its blood and stopped running as looked towards Medusa, dumbfounded.
"Are you alright, boy?" Medusa asked, but instead of her expected thanks, the white-haired kid screamed and ran away from her.
"…" Medusa was speechless.
Even Kuroka, who just arrive, couldn\'t help but mutter, "What was that?"
"…A rude kid…" Medusa answered, "Let\'s forget about him. I still have to prepare for lunch." She didn\'t really mind the boy\'s actions as he was probably too scared and choose to forget about it as there is more important thing aside from that, and that is what she should prepare for lunch.
"You\'re right. I also have to find something to gift for Shirone since she\'ll be sulking for a while…" Kuroka agreed with her.

"What!? Say that again!?" Bete shouted at Line.
However, the latter only focused on pouring potions on the three girls and ignored the nonsensical question. Normally, Line would be too afraid of her secret crush, but right now, that doesn\'t matter.
Bete exploded when he was ignored. All the frustration he has been feeling was about to drop down on Line, "Hey! Answer my question!!!" As Bete was about to grab Line\'s shoulder, Ais intercepted him by grabbing his arm, "Stop that."
"Bete. Calm down! You can\'t push your frustration to others!" Riveria also reprimanded him.
"Tch!" Realizing what he\'s about to do, Bete clicked his tongue and walked away. He acknowledged that he\'s in the wrong this time but couldn\'t apologize so he just left.
"Wait… Aren\'t they familiar to you?" Tiona suddenly asked.
"Companions of the guy who scammed Bete," Ais answered. She along with Riviera already recognized their faces but aren\'t sure if they\'re really the same people since the aura they\'re giving now is very different from when they\'re in Mia\'s pub.
"Ah! So they\'re that! Why haven\'t I noticed it!?"
"Because you\'re drunk."
"…"
"Three Level 1s against two Minotaurs? That very impressive… Although not without some sacrifices." Finn commented after observing the unconscious girls\' injuries. However, he noticed that the other\'s expression doesn\'t add up, "What\'s wrong?" And now that he thought about it, Bete\'s reaction is also weirdly intense.
Riveria shook her head and said, "I\'ll tell you about it later." She then faced Line and asked, "Are they really Level 1?"
"Yes… I\'ve seen their Falna… Although I can\'t Hieroglyphs, I can at least read Levels."
Riveria\'s face became even more complicated along with others.
Finn wanted to hear what\'s going on now, but something must have happened that they\'re keeping it secret, "Take out the stretchers. We\'ll take to the Guild\'s treatment facility."
The Loki Familia brought the three girls to the Guild\'s clinic in a hurry and the first one that was notified is their advisor before the Guild sent out a messenger to notify the Hestia Familia of what happened.
Before leaving, Riveria told their Advisor, Sophie, that they were injured because two Minotaurs managed to escape from them but they were also managed to defeat them on their own which shocked Sophie.
The Loki Familia soon left, leaving everything to Sophie and went back to the Twilight Manor. Although it\'s not the usual turn of events, they were happy that they returned, "Welcome back~!!!"
Loki welcomed everyone, but on her face is a palm mark.
"We\'re home!" But they choose to ignore that she as probably groped one of the members when they got back.
If it\'s the normal Loki, she would immediately pounce on Ais after her return, however, an urgent matter came to her earlier and wanted to talk to Finn about it, "Finn, let\'s talk inside first… There are probably things that you want to talk about."
"Indeed… I do have some… But did Gareth already told you what happened on the 50th floor?"
"50th floor? No clue! I want to know about the rookies that you supposedly bring out of the Dungeon."
"What?" Finn furrowed his brows, "How did you know that?"
"A certain annoying short Goddess uncharacteristically came to me earlier about that… It seems that the other side is already expecting you to bring those rookies out."
