  Is Golden Hawk okay?

  Summary of the incident:

  Encountered a demon in Musashino Dungeon.
  Tried to escape, but Hanashiro Yuzuha couldn’t make it and died.

  Wait, WHAT?!
  She was cute…

  She was cute, yeah… but she was a healer, right?
  Would’ve been tough to survive in that situation.

1. Taketo Ogino
  I’m sorry.
  It’s my fault for being so powerless…

  Wait, the leader’s here?!

  It’s not your fault.
  If you and your team couldn’t handle it, then no explorer in Japan could.

1. Anonymous
  Yeah, exactly.
  There’s no way you would have just abandoned a teammate and run.
  I know that for sure.

  Still…
  It must be rough, knowing you couldn’t protect a non-combat member.

  Are you stupid?
  Like hell anyone would just let that happen!
  It must have been a monstrous enemy.
  Right, Taketo?

1. Taketo Ogino
  Yeah…
  It was a demon of unbelievable power.

Our magic—both mine and Meri’s—had no effect.
Even Kurou’s sword and Sayaka’s fists didn’t do a thing.

If Ryuya hadn’t quickly found us an escape route, we all might have died there.

  Shouldn’t they shut down Musashino Dungeon after this?

  Nothing about that on any official sites.

  Here’s the official Guild statement:

“On 20XX/2/6, a high-ranking demon was encountered in Musashino Dungeon, resulting in the death of one explorer. However, the demon subsequently disappeared. The Tokyo Branch Special Investigation Unit conducted an investigation and concluded that this was an isolated incident. No further magical anomalies have been reported.”

“As a result, the Dungeon Association has raised Musashino Dungeon’s rank from B to B+.”

  That’s super shady. Lol.

  A demon strong enough to wipe out Golden Hawk, and all they did was add a plus?

1. Anonymous
  If it was that bad, shouldn’t it be A+ or even S-rank?

1. Anonymous
  Dungeon ranks go A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-…
  There’s no S rank.

  I know that, dumbass.
  I meant it deserved an S-rank!

  Damn, your salt levels are through the roof.

1. Taketo Ogino
  It was dangerous, yeah…
  But we were caught off guard. If we had faced it head-on, the outcome might have been different.

We never expected a safe zone—even in the lower floors—to be breached.

That was our mistake.

1. Anonymous
  So you guys just arrived on the lower floor and were resting in a safe zone?
  Yeah, getting ambushed there would’ve been rough…

  If it were us, we wouldn’t have been able to handle it at all.

  But why only Yuzuha-chan? 😢

1. Fire_Witch
  Because she just collapsed the moment we took a break.

Seriously, if you’re a non-combat explorer, you should be extra careful.

But nope—she probably wore herself out partying the night before or something.

1. Taketo Ogino
  Meri?!

  So… it was her own fault?

  No way… Yuzuha-chan wouldn’t do that…

  Well, she was cute. And had, you know, a nice figure…

  Disgusting. Stop dragging Golden Hawk’s name through the mud.

She was probably just spreading her legs for favors anyway.

  Wait, didn’t the last healer also leave over some relationship drama?

I thought the guy was the problem, but maybe it was her after all?

Disappointing.

1. Taketo Ogino
  That’s just speculation.

It’s true I couldn’t protect her.
And it’s true we were the ones who brought her along.

1. Fire_Witch
  Taketo, you’re too soft.

That’s why people walk all over you.

You should’ve been harder on her from the start.

  Yeah, Taketo’s always been weak when it comes to women.

  Stop degrading her.

No matter what mistakes she may have made, she was our comrade.

  Still, losing your healer must be rough.

  Yeah. Golden Hawk had been on a winning streak until now. I hope this doesn’t slow them down.

1. Taketo Ogino
  Thanks, everyone. But don’t worry—we won’t stop here.

Yuzuha’s death was tragic, and I regret not being able to protect her.

But with dungeons growing more dangerous by the day, we can’t afford to stop.

I’ve already visited her grave, apologized… and vowed not to give up.

We will move forward.

We’ll start looking for a new healer soon.
If you think you have what it takes, reach out to us.

  Dungeons are getting worse, though.

Wasn’t there a Sphinx Stampede in Melbourne recently?
Completely wiped out a city block.

  Japan’s been lucky so far without any major incidents, but people say our explorers are weak compared to other countries, right?

  Golden Hawk is strong, okay!?

  That’s not what I meant.
  I’m talking about the whole country.

Compared to places like America or China, we’re weaker.
And even compared to countries with mandatory military service, we fall short.

1. Taketo Ogino
  That might be true.

But we can’t afford to lose so easily.
