I have Became Able to Do Anything with My Growth Cheat but I Can not Seem to Get out of Being Jobless

Chapter 419

(419) Malina and Kanon

Translator: Tseirp

“You two, why!?”

“I’m not really sure but Torerul-sama appeared in my dream when I was sleeping . ”

“She said that Jo~ would be in danger here and asked us to help . And when we went to Jo~ room, nobody was there so we quickly ran over . ”

So Torerul-sama did something .

Sheesh, that Goddess-sama usually slacks off but she does a good job when it comes down to it .

“Jofre, Elize, you’re just in time . Carol and Quince-san here … please protect them . Also, I’ll entrust this to you . ”

I handed a total of 12 rare medals to Jofre that I collected from continuously hunting monsters in the Florence dungeon .

“You know how to use it, right?”

“Yes, leave it to me . I’ll feed Centaur one at a time whenever it defeats a monster as a reward . ”

I actually thought of letting Centaur eat it and strengthening it but I guess that would work too .

Jofre and Elize had leveled up too and were considerably strong but the most reliable was Centaur .

“Carol, please use Home Return when it gets dangerous . ”

“Understood, good luck to you too, Ichino-sama . ”

Carol sent me off as we headed to the room with the pitfall .

I hugged Malina, Haru hugged Miri and we jumped into the hole together .

【Ichinojo leveled up】

【Fire Magician skill: 「Fire Resistance (Medium)」has skilled up to「Fire Resistance (High)」】

【Wind Magician skill: 「Wind Resistance (Medium)」has skilled up to「Wind Resistance (High)」】

【Earth Magician skill: 「Earth Resistance (Medium)」has skilled up to「Earth Resistance (High)」】

【Water Magician skill: 「Water Resistance (Medium)」has skilled up to「Water Resistance (High)」】

As I fell down the pit, I was informed that each of my attribute resistance had increased along with the message telling me that I leveled up . I’ll put the thoughts aside for now .

Previously I used Water Magic to stop our falling momentum when we fell into the pit during our dungeon conquest but this time, I wanted to conserve my magical power as much as possible so the two of us kicked the wall while falling to reduce our speed .

Thankfully, the bottom of the pitfall was not a spike hell but an ordinary floor .

“Malina, clench your teeth!”

“Miri-sama, please be careful of the shock . ”

Haru and I warned them as we kicked the last wall and landed such that we slid diagonally .

There was almost no damage to my feet .

Haru seemed fine too .

“This is the 13th floor? Are the three of you okay?”

“I’m okay . ”

“I’m all right too . ”

“It’s not a big deal if I think of how I was held by Haru and flew through the Dakyat forest . ”

Marina seemed to be a little stronger now but the three of them seemed safe .

This dungeon extended to the 15th floor so we had two more floors to go .

By the time we reach there, we will meet the Hero, Kanon and Talwi .

The monsters on the 13th floor didn’t seem to be affected by Carol and Quince-san’s Moon Captivating Fragrance . Unlike the monsters that headed straight for Quince-san without batting an eyelid at us, these monsters attacked us like normal .

Marina drew her bow but,

“Save your magical power!”

I said and drew White Wolf Fang, opening a path .

I left the drop items alone this time and made use of the time usually spent picking them up .

“Master, Miri-sama, Marina-san, I smell Kanon!”

“Kanon!? Haru, where is Kanon!?”

“This way!”

Haru replied and started leading the way .

We followed after her . Along the way, I knocked down the monsters with Swordsman and Samurai skills such as Slash, Tornado Slash, and Flash .

The stairs leading to the 14th floor was full of monsters but,

“Petite Stone!”

Only the spell name was petite as a 1 meter wide stone collided with the monsters and rolled down the stairs while gathering all the other monsters .

That amount of magical power consumption could be recovered in less than a minute .

“Master, this way!”

We stepped on the fallen monsters under the stairs and proceeded further .

Finally, we found the stairs leading to the 15th floor, the lowest floor .

If we went down the stairs – –

“Eh? Haru, isn’t this the way?”

“Yes, it seems that the Hero is below but Kanon-san appears to be on this floor . ”

Wasn’t Kanon and the Hero working together?

“Also, there is one more person with Kanon-san – -”

Haru announced their name .

Kanon was in a wide hidden room similar to the mountain bandit hideout behind an illusionary wall where Norn was held captive .

“Ara, Suke-kun and Kaguya-chan . So this place has been revealed . ”

She was with Demon God Minerva-sama .

“Don’t pretend . Since you knew Haru was with us, not planning against her sense of smell is the same as telling us to find you . ”

Miri commented and looked at Kanon at the same time .

Her eyes were vacant and she didn’t seem normal .

“I don’t care if you are a Goddess or whatnot, what have you done to my sworn friend Kanon!”

“What? I am a former Goddess of Medicine . Of course, I used medicine . ”

She said as she stuck out her tongue and took out a test tube with black liquid in it .

“I’m just adjusting her to be a Demon God’s vessel . ”

“That – -”

Miri seemed to recognize the medicine as she glared at Minerva after seeing it .

“Yes, this is the failed product that Kaguya-chan researched to purify miasma . It was supposed to be research to extract miasma from monsters but you ended up with a drug that will familiarize the body with miasma after it enters the body . Thanks to this, I can help her awaken as a Demon God – -”

A wind arrow flew toward her before Minerva-sama finished speaking .

It was a surprise attack but Minerva-sama easily avoided the arrow .

“Ara, Malina-chan . I did not finish my sentence . ”

“It’s Marina . You’ve spoken enough . You are the reason for Kanon’s condition . ”

“Ara? You put it as though I am the evil person here but this is Kanon-chan’s will . ”

“ … What?”

Marina stopped her hand that was pulling her arrow .

“Kanon-chan volunteered to become a Demon God . ”

Minerva-sama said with a smile .

“Devil Race are destined to hide to survive from the time they are born . Although part of the race under Kaguya-chan’s leadership when she was the Demon Lord were not that discriminated against . Before she entered the Demon Lord Army, her mother, father, brother, and sister were tipped off by the neighbors that received them with a smile, and their true identities were revealed, leading to their capture and execution . She was coincidentally in a forest so she survived and was able to enter the Demon Lord Army . However, the discrimination against the Devil Race in the Demon Lord Army still occurred away from Kaguya-chan’s eyes . This Kanon-chan has been treated badly by her superior, the vampire Valf, for some time . ”

I looked over my shoulder at Miri .

She was gnashing her teeth regretfully .

“Of course, it is not Kaguya-chan’s fault . For a huge organization, there will always be some rifts . ”

“In other words, Kanon hated this world and succumbed to evil?”

“That’s rude . We’re saving this world, you know?”

Minerva replied with a smile .

I could not feel any resemblance to her previous insistence to die .

Was this her true nature?

“After all, once the world ends, whether it’s a Goddess or a Demon God, they would die after they fulfill their roles . It is finally time to discard everything and die . Isn’t it wonderful?”

“Then feel free to die on your own! Dark Sword . ”

Miri replied and released a sword of darkness .

But Minerva-sama – – no, Minerva caught it with her fingers .

The next instant, Miri’s spell shattered and dispersed .

“Onii!”

“All right – -”

Now was the time to use the Demon Lord’s power – – just as I had that thought .

Kanon suddenly moved and rapidly approached me .

(Hand-to-hand combat!?)

I caught the sharp kick from Kanon with my arm .

I was unhurt but the surface of my skin was hot due to the friction .

Kanon followed up with a kick .

“Onii, avoid!”

I followed Miri’s instruction and flew backward with my arm that was about to receive the blow out in front .

At the same time, a dagger appeared out of the toes of the shoes Kanon was wearing and brushed past my face .

I let my guard down .

“Ah, Miri-sama is a tough opponent after all . ”

“Kanon, you still retain your sanity?”

I didn’t expect Kanon to still be sane .

When I looked at where Minerva stood, she had already disappeared .

“Yes, that is right . I thought she had her guard down . ”

Deceiving was her specialty so to speak .

“Kanon, it’s an order . Stand down . ”

Miri commanded Kanon .

But she did not back down .

“Unfortunately, your Demon Lord Authority does not affect me anymore . ”

Kanon replied with a bold smile .

Demon Lord Authority – – it was a skill that forcibly converts a submissive target into your kin and rob a part of their experience points . I used it to raise my Demon Lord level but the original usage was to force the target to obey like a slave collar .

So Kanon was once Miri’s kin?

“Kanon, why! Why lend your hand to the Demon God! Do you hate this world that much!”

Marina asked with a look of grief .

“ … I don’t need to tell you that . ”

Damn, in this case, we’ll have to stop Kanon by force .

“Kusunoki, can you leave this to me?”

“Marina, what are you saying?”

“It might be my fate to settle it with my friend . Thankfully it seems that monsters can’t enter this room . ”

“But – -”

“Kusunoki, there is not enough time . Carol and Quince-dono are waiting . ”

But I couldn’t leave Marina there alone .

“Ah, that’s true . Don’t worry . I won’t kill Marina . I’ll hurt her a little and let her watch through my transformation into a Demon God before sending her back to the surface unharmed . Since further ahead should be the current Demon Lord-sama who is managing the Demon Lord Army on behalf of Miri-chan . ”

Kanon said .

“Master, let’s trust Marina-san and Kanon-san here . There should be a reason they fight for that only the two of them know . ”

“It is a fact that we do not have time . I’m worried about the reason why Minerva was here too so we should quickly find the Hero . ”

“ … All right . Don’t push yourself … Malina . ”

“I said I am Marina … no, you’re right . ”

Marina replied with a smile .

“I don’t plan to push myself . Don’t worry and leave this to me . ”

There was no way I wouldn’t worry .

Nevertheless, although I didn’t trust Marina or Kanon, I trusted in the bond between the two of them .
