I love time travel the most!

"It seems she... went to the maze alone."

------

"I need to change my mood."

Having realized this, the swordswoman Ais walked on the road leading to the dungeon, and then heard a familiar voice coming from behind her.

"Lord Kobayashi, are we going to the dungeon again today?"

"Yes."

"But a disturbance occurred at the security perimeter."

"No problem. As for the upper echelons... oh, it's Miss Ais."

Kobayashi also saw the Sword Maiden standing at the entrance of the dungeon and greeted her.

"Xiao Lin."

"Hmm, so you really are LV6. Congratulations."

"Thank you."

Sword Maiden Ais didn't suspect anything or ask any questions, because Kobayashi had mentioned this yesterday.

"The sun is so bright."

"indeed."

The question-and-answer session was rather pointless.

In response, Kobayashi invited, "Miss Ais is also going to the dungeon to grind monsters, right? After all, you've only just advanced to LV6, and you still need real combat experience to solidify and feel your new power. In that case, let's go to the dungeon together. I'm also interested in the strength of LV6 powerhouses."

Clearly, he was requesting combat instructions.

Swordswoman Ais had no reason to refuse a deal that allowed her to fight while also repaying a favor.

"Ah."

She nodded and agreed.

The two traveled together. Just as they arrived at the foot of the Tower of Babel, they saw Eina, a half-elf and guild employee.

"Kobayashi? Ais?"

"Miss Eina?"

After exchanging greetings, Eina explained that she had been assigned to Babel Tower as the person in charge of the inspection, while Kobayashi explained that he had just run into the Sword Maiden Ais and they were about to go to the dungeon together.

Upon seeing the Sword Maiden Ais, Eina introduced herself: "Sorry to bother you yesterday. I am Eina Zul, a guild employee and also the adventure advisor in charge of Kobayashi."

"……Hello."

Sword Maiden Ais nodded blankly.

Eina felt as if she didn't remember, but was it just her imagination? Then she thanked the other person for rescuing Bell.

Once the conversation started, Kobayashi also casually mentioned the incident from the previous day when Ais insisted that he give Bell a lap pillow, which made the dignified and generous half-elf burst into laughter.

Just when the atmosphere was just right, an offensive conversation broke out behind me.

"That white-haired brat has fallen for the whole trap, hasn't he?"

"I knew exactly what was going to happen."

"You lot, don't make a mistake."

"Okay, boss."

The loud, secretive talk clearly indicated that they were plotting to frame some adventurer.

While it's not allowed for adventurers to frame each other in the dungeon, nothing is absolute.

Eina pondered, "Could it be..."

"What's wrong, Eina?" Kobayashi asked.

The half-elf girl frowned slightly, looked at Kobayashi intently, hesitated for a moment, and finally pleaded, "Kobayashi, I know this request is unreasonable, but I still want to ask you for a favor."

"Go save that cowardly rabbit, right?"

"Cowardly rabbit?"

"That is, Bell."

Xiaolin waved his hand, not explaining why he called the other person a cowardly rabbit, but his attitude was already very clear.

"Please, Kobayashi."

"I'll be there."

"Is it really possible?!"

"Ah, because it was Miss Eina's request. And... consider it compensation for almost killing Bell before. (whispering)"

To be honest, treating them to a meal as an apology isn't enough; this time, saving the other party is a good way to make up for it.

"What did you say, Kobayashi?"

"I mean, I'm leaving right now."

"please."

"give it to me."

Kobayashi nodded, turned around, and ran towards the underground city.

Seeing this, the swordswoman behind him hesitated for a moment, and then followed him into the depths of the dungeon.

Chapter 240 A Hero is a Hero

When exactly is it?

I had completely forgotten about it, but when I came to my senses I was already here.

Alone, I find myself here.

My father went to the underground city for money and died so easily.

To live is simply to live.

I struggle to get by every day.

A small, thin body, a heavy backpack, a hard floor, a cramped space, a suffocating environment, a bewildered heart, and a dark future. Even with hard work, he couldn't earn money, not even enough to fill his stomach.

Because of their weakness, they were beaten and exploited.

Even if they escape, they will be found.

No matter how you try to escape or hide, you will be found.

The traumatic experience haunted her childhood; she couldn't escape or shake it off. Those people only knew how to use force to subdue the weak.

"That's why Lily hates adventurers."

Watching Bell's retreating figure, she murmured softly and vowed to take revenge on the adventurers.

------

Underground city.

Kobayashi and Ais quickly searched the passageway. Splitting up would have been the fastest way, but since Kobayashi could use his abilities of "farsight" and "perception," they searched together to save Ais time.

"Kobayashi, did you see that?"

"No."

Kobayashi simply shook his head.

Knowing Bell as he did, that idiot was definitely not satisfied with the first few levels, and wouldn't listen to the advice of the adventure advisor, Eina. However, since those adventurers might be plotting against him, the higher levels couldn't be ignored either.

During their run, the two would ask adventurers for directions, constantly trying to confirm Bell's location.

On the 8th and 9th floors, the scenery and terrain of the underground city will change drastically.

First, the number of passageways has increased and they are wider. The roads connecting the passageways are very short. At the same time, the ceiling, which was originally only 3 or 4 meters high, has increased to nearly 10 meters.

And the same applies to the floors below.

The difference is that the 10th layer is obscured by fog.

A thin, but obstructive white mist enveloped the entire underground city.

The structure is the same as the upper level, except that the ceiling light source is no longer as bright as sunlight, and the brightness is just like the morning mist.

With their vision obstructed, they are quite easy to get lost.

We need to find him quickly.

"I know."

Farsightedness + Perception + X-ray Vision

It's no exaggeration to say that Kobayashi is currently the strongest radar. If it weren't for his relatively low mental strength, which prevents him from covering the entire floor, he could easily find Bell's location.

However, his speed is very fast, so this drawback is not a big deal.

"found it!"

Kobayashi called out and led Ais towards Bell's direction.

What came into view was a frail human boy adventurer, fighting against several giant demons wielding huge wooden clubs.

That's right, the monster is wielding a weapon.

The 10th floor contains a natural arsenal, where monsters will use weapons readily available. With these weapons, the monsters on this floor are particularly difficult to deal with, perfectly reflecting the characteristic of increasing strength every 5 floors.

During the match, Bale gradually became exhausted.

His frail body couldn't withstand the combined onslaught of several giant demons, and he desperately needed someone to rescue him.

Kobayashi and Ais exchanged a glance.

After exchanging glances, they both ran towards the direction where Bell was.

"Flame and Lightning!"
