I Reincarnated as Just a Mob in an Eroge World, but the Heroines Are Swarming Me - Episode 32
Episode 32
…I really want these boots that boost my attack stats.
By combining them with the gloves, I could create some good punch-and-kick combos.
If I’m going to fight using both fists and kicks, I want these two items. After that, I’ll need accessory gear that won’t slow me down.
The item in this shop with the highest growth bonus during level-ups is the Hard Misanga.
(Note: Misanga is a friendship bracelet.)
The total cost of all these items is… 200,000 yen.
……I don’t have enough money.
I’ll have to give up on the boots and bracelet… no choice.
As I was browsing the equipment for a while, Kirisaki tilted her head at me.
“What’s up?”
“Well… equipment only works up to three items, right?”
“Yeah.”
“So I wanted to buy three, but I don’t have enough cash. I’m wondering what to do.”
“In that case, I’ll buy them for you.”
“…Wait, seriously? No, no, that’s too much, I can’t let you do that.”
If this were just a game, I’d gladly accept her offer. But, since we’re both real people, I’d rather not rely on her money.
“But I want to fight you at your best.”
I thought about her words for a moment.
……I also want to grow without wasting any opportunities.
If I equipped what I picked now and kept leveling up, I’d definitely become a powerful character.
Even if I’m just a side character, there’s no reason not to become strong. As long as I don’t use that strength in the spotlight, it should be fine to train as much as I want.
After pondering for a bit, I decided to make a condition with Kirisaki.
“For now, how about I borrow the money? I’ll pay you back once I earn it.”
“It doesn’t really matter to me.”
For my own sake, I wanted to keep things clear when it came to borrowing money.
Even though I was hesitant, I also wanted to become strong, so I gratefully accepted her offer.
“…….In that case, can I ask you to buy them for me?”
“Got it.”
I handed her the money I had, and Kirisaki covered the rest.
“Here you go. I’m looking forward to it.”
“Yeah… leave it to me.”
“Now then, let’s head to the dungeon.”
With an excited look, Kirisaki grabbed my hand and led me away.
Once we had our gear ready, we made our way to the Shizuho Dungeon.
Kirisaki’s excitement was at an all-time high.
She was clearly eager to fight in the dungeon, practically bouncing with energy. She was like a puppy that had found a new playmate.
After a bit of walking, we finally saw the entrance to the Shizuho Dungeon.
The surrounding area was the same peaceful countryside. But the atmosphere around the dungeon’s entrance was distinctly eerie.
There was an old, stone door.
…So that’s the Shizuho Dungeon. Dungeon entrances are all made of these ancient stone doors.
In the game, the dungeon was just shown as a piece of background art. But the design here looks the same, which is reassuring.
This dungeon is managed by the Gabriel Union.
The Gabriel Union is particularly skilled in sealing techniques among the angels, creating barriers that seal away the Kyoei and protect the cities.
The reason cities outside Tenma City are still safe is that the Gabriel Union has sealed the Kyoei inside these dungeons.
While the seal works, no Kyoei can escape into the city. But, there are some problems.
The Kyoei sealed inside sometimes attack each other, and some of them grow stronger.
Sealing them in dungeons isn’t always the perfect solution.
“Hurry, hurry! I want to get inside and fight already!”
Kirisaki was already in battle mode. She stood at the gate, prepared for combat.
I chuckled as I watched her. I then slipped on my gloves and swapped into my new boots.
I was feeling a bit nervous.
When I fought the Kyōjū before, it was a do-or-die situation. So I hadn’t really thought much about it. But this feels like my first real fight.
Kirisaki confidently placed her hand on the gate, and her body disappeared.
…I followed her lead, touching the gate, and entered the dungeon after her.
