「Ah! Perhaps it is the power of Arts!」

「Eh?」
「Ayane-tan, you must have some great skills! It’s okay, don’t worry! I will never tell anyone about this!」
「Eh, um… ?」
「And I have skills that I wouldn’t let people talk about either!」
「…… Yes」

I’m not sure what it is, but she seems to be willing to not tell anyone, so I’ll just leave it alone for now… Did she interpret that technique as being due to skill arts? I’m relieved that she doesn’t seem to know that I made it up as I went along.

So, relieved and for some reason ecstatic, I and Luna-san came to the dead body of the Water Doragon, which was immersed in the water.

「Ayane-tan…」
「Yes?」
「For me, I think it would be better to dismantle it here, but I’m not sure. By the way, I don’t know how to dismantle…」
「Eh? …… Ahh…」

I understand what she’s saying. When you dismantle something at the Adventurer’s Guild in the city, you are then swarmed by players and other residents here who are looking for that material. I had run into a similar situation when I borrowed it before, and it was terrible. It depends on the material, but there were even people who were threatening me for it… Oh, scary…
Well, perhaps because of such circumstances, it is easier in many ways to dismantle it here than at the Adventurer’s Guild’s dismantling site in town. And we won’t be swarmed by people who want materials.

「I can dismantle it in a manner of speaking, so should I do it? But I’ve never done it with dragons, so I’m sure some parts will go to waste…」
「I won’t say anything as long as Ayane-tan has a peaceful and safe life」
「Fufu. Isn’t that an exaggeration?」
「… She still did not know the true horror of the situation…」
「The true horror?」
「No! It’s nothing!」
「???」

What’s so frightening about it? I don’t know. I don’t care about that, let’s dismantle it!

「Whew… Finally finished…」
「Thanks for your hard work!」
「Yup! Thanks Luna-san! But I messed up half of the total amount…」
「It’s all right! On the other hand, I’m surprised that you succeeded with half of it on your first attempt…」
「Is that so?」
「That’s right」

After dismantling the Water Doragon, we walked over to a treasure chest that had appeared after we had defeated it. When we opened it, we found a blue and silver hair ornament with a water dragon crafted on it. The effect seems to be to increase the attack power of Water Attribute. Since I do not use magic, I gave this to Luna-san. Perhaps it will be of use to her somewhere.

「Ayane-tan… I might as well die like this…」
「No, you can’t!?」

「Ayane-tan… ! You’re that worried about me… !」
「No, I wasn’t thinking that!?」
「It’s okay… I know exactly what you mean…」
「Ah, forget it」
「Fufufu」

Now, I feel like I’ve done it all for the moment, but that was just the mid-boss. If we continue onward, we should find the boss of the Great Labyrinth of Formana here. And we haven’t even gotten the objective of the Heavenly Prison Chapter yet.

「ByuraaaaA!?!!?!??」
「Byururururu!??!!?」

「Fu!」

──Supapan!

「Byuru?」

──Dosa…

Since defeating that boss, the number of enemies has doubled with every step forward. There were more and more monsters with arms and legs, as if they were an evolved form of Notoshigo.
I am still fine, but when I glanced at Luna-san, she looked somewhat distressed. I guess we should go home soon…

If a seahorse grew arms… Sort of.
