Rus.h.i.+ng leads to mistakes .

The two of us decided to fully prepare and get into our best condition before challenging the dungeon during the next day off .

The day came, so in the morning Emma and I head to the hidden dungeon .

At the entrance, I speak the usual pa.s.sword .

「So that is the pa.s.sword . It sounds like a proclamation of your way of life . 」

「Yeah, if only it didn’t sound so egotistic it would’ve been perfect . 」

Entering, I immediately take Emma into a princess carry and use Dungeon Portal .

I wanted to introduce her to Master, but this time we were in a hurry .

We arrive at the sign on the 14th floor .

「Last time I took path 1 . This time we are taking path 2 . 」

「Let’s do our best . 」

「Yeah . 」

For a while, path 2 continued in a straight line .

I was afraid that there would be another corner, but this time it was a dead end .

It had a door, so the trial should be awaiting behind it .

After looking at each other we simultaneously nod to each other and then go through it .

The door shut behind us, automatically locking .

We ended up surrounded by amber-colored walls in a somewhat small room .

The opposite wall had a square wall in it, of about 30 centimeters in size and——

Something is comingーー?!

A large number of small monsters armed with swords, spears, and bows, rushed into the room through it .

The influx of pygmies didn’t stop and before even a minute pa.s.sed we were completely surrounded .

There are so many of them that there is no place for us to step .

Even though they are very small, this sight still gives off a lot of impact .

After the full force of pygmies was a.s.sembled, something resembling a stone sealed the hole in the wall from the inside .

「We won’t let you get away」is this what they want to say?

Well, it’s not like we could escape through such a small hole to begin with .

And when it came to those monsters, they didn’t appear like simply smaller humans .

Crooked noses, pointy ears, dark brown skin .

They look like something akin to half-humans, half-goblins .

Their height is only about 20 centimeters, so Emma and I have to constantly look at our feet .

「Filthy giants! Don’t look down on us!」

One of the pygmies shouted, pointing a spear at us .

The volume of that voice was enough to wonder where it might be coming from with such a small body .

But even so, giants, huh .

Well, from their point of view we would appear that way .

「Wait a moment . It’s not like we mean you any harm . 」

Said Emma, raising both of her hands as a sign of having no intention of opposing them .

If we can through this without a fight then it’s for the best .

Thus, I did the same .

Then, pygmies began whispering with each other .

This makes me nervous……

Using this chance I appraised the pygmies but was unable to identify abilities of any of them . All of them are shrouded in mystery .

Apparently finished with their discussion, they shout loudly .

「You lot, drop your weapons and items!」

I exchange looks with Emma .

Since we are more or less surrounded, we decided to obey .

I have other weapons anyway . We put our equipment on the floor .

The pygmies immediately carried them off to a corner of the room .

「We have no reason to let you go just like that . 」

「We will do what we can . 」

「Oh, really?」

「Yes . Otherwise, you are going to attack us all together, right?」

「Wait for a moment . 」

Once again, the pygmies began whispering among themselves .

I carefully looked over the pygmies, of which there were at least a few hundred, but all of them looked the same, and none had any characteristic features .

By the way, there are two exits .

On the opposite side from the door through which we just came was another exit .

So that is our goal, huh . But it should be locked .

Thinking logically, the condition for unlocking should be the annihilation of the pygmies . In a low voice, I say to Emma .

「Let’s pretend to be captives, and upon getting a chance, attack」

「Got it . 」

Looks like they once again came to a conclusion, as one of the pygmies shouted in a high-pitched voice .

「We are hungry! Give us food!」

In preparations, I had food stored in the subdimensional storage .

Though I never expected that I would have to feed pygmies with it .

「We have bread and fruits, what do you want to eat?」

「Wait a moment . 」

Another discussion?

They seem to be close to humans in intelligence which makes them a bit troublesome opponents .

Even so, there are too many of them . Even if each one of them is weak, it’s scary to think of what they can do all together .

「Give us something tasty, which can be split and shared!」

I guess bananas or cookies would be a safe choice .

As I pulled out a banana, the pygmies’ wariness shot through the roof .

「Whwhat you just did?!」

「Nothing suspicious, this is my ability . I had things stored in another dimension . This is food, look . 」

As I peeled off the banana and put it on the floor pygmies flocked to it like ants, intently observing it .

「Yellow…… I never saw before……?」

Surely there is none on the 14th floor . Or rather, do tell me what you usually eat, I’m quite curious .

「It’s a fruit called banana . It’s pretty popular in our town . Though it’s a bit expensive . 」

「Someone, try it for poisons!」

After that shout, another pygmy stepped forward and gave it a taste .

Could it be that the one that just gave an order is their boss? Thinking well, there are a considerable number of them . It would be strange if there was no one leading them .

Humans also have kings, and for battlefields, generals .

Even monsters have leaders in their packs .

Then wouldn’t they be thrown into disarray if we defeat this one?

Hmm, for now, let’s refrain from attacks based on premature conclusions .

And as for the pygmy that went to try banana for poison, the moment it took a bite, it leaked a low groan and covered its face with a hand .

Though there is no poison in it .

Seeing the suffering of their comrade, other pygmies brandished their weapons br.i.m.m.i.n.g with hostility .

「You lowly giant! You put poisons into it?!」

「I did not! I didn’t poison it!」

「Everyone…… It’s the truth . I wasn’t suffering…… It’s just THAT tasty!」

Thanks to the delighted comments from the pygmy taster, my innocence was proven somehow .

The moment other pygmies understood that it’s not harmful they also went for a taste with great interest .

All of them had the same reaction, after gaping their eyes they would then scream so loudly that my eardrums were about pop .

「TAAAAAAAAAASTY!」

「FOR REAL, IT’S SOOOOO GOOD!!」

「IT’S MY FIRST TIME EATING SOMETHING SOOOOOO TASTY AND SOOOO SWEEEET!」

「GOOOD, GOOOOOOD, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!」

Looking at them chanting good and tasty, I thought .

d.a.m.n THIS IS DISGUSTING!

Yeah, sorry . But with them being ugly, to begin with, they are now grimacing and yelling while scattering spit everywhere .

Looking beside me, Emma also had a grimace of disgust on her face .

「Hey, go away! This banana is mine . 」

「Shuttup, me took it first . 」

「Don’t mess with me! You want to die?!」

With the banana gone, they began fighting over the skin .

Oooh .

An unexpected falling out!

Nice, do it, go for it!

It would be even better if they started killing each other and self-destructed as a result!
