Volume 6 Chapter 315 - Which Fantasy Hole?

Line could tell that there is something wrong with her 'offer', but not having any option to start with, she became curious, "They way?"

"Before I answer that, I would like to ask first. Can you keep secrets?"

Line's expression became serious after hearing that, "Why would you let me keep your secrets?" Even though she's truly grateful for saving her from the monsters, she's not a naive idiot that would accept everything they say to her.

"Not much of a reason, really… I just thought that you're the person we're looking for." Sona replied.

"After only telling you my story? I might just be lying to get you to trust me."

"Indeed… I can't tell if you're lying or not. I don't have a God's ability to tell apart lies."

"They why?"

Sona smiled as she reminisced her servants, "I at least can tell that your frustration regarding your present situation is real. After all, I'm used to it and I also experienced it firsthand."

"So you're trusting me with your secrets?"

"Yes."

"What if you're wrong and just reveals it to everyone? Or at least, to my Familia? As a top Familia, we took importance to information gathering and if your secret is important, I might just tell them everything I know."

"… Then it'll be my mistake and I would take responsibility for whatever going to happen next." Sona smiled confidently. She didn't like gambling, but if her instincts are correct, then Line would become great assistance for them in the future.

Line sighed after hearing that and thought, 'Well, if she can take responsibility that confidently, it shouldn't that much of a secret. And beside's they should be around Level 1 or 2 since they're exploring this floor. What could they know that a top Familia like Loki Familia doesn't know?'

"Alright, I can keep secrets. I promise that I won't tell anyone. Even if Loki-sama asks me about it, I won't answer." She finally relented.

Hearing that, a smile that resembles Kisuke's emerged from both Sona and Aika. Koneko could only shake her head after seeing that and look at Line in pity.

Line didn't know why, but she suddenly felt a cold breeze passing up her spine. She looked around as she thought that a monster appeared but failed to find any.

As for Sona and Aika, they didn't care if there secret come outs and they're not really worried as it's the Loki Familia they're talking about and would probably want to keep the information for themselves. And on top of that, Loki seems to be good friends with Hestia.

"For now, join our party as we explore this floor," Sona instructed.

"Sure… But what about the way you're talking about earlier?" Line asked.

"It's related to our secret and as we hunt for monsters, you'll slowly realize it. We only ask you to please heal any of our injuries."

Since she already sailed the boat, Line didn't hesitate anymore, "Let's go." What she didn't you, however, is that due to her decision today, she won't just be having a 'great' adventure but more on a 'grand' one.

Getting 'free potions', the trio decided to stay in the Dungeon and go practice their magic and Flash Steps.

"By the way, Line-san. How much minor injuries or cuts can you heal in an hour?" Sona asked.

"Sustainable? That would be around 20 times if it's just minor injuries or cuts."

"Great! So Koneko and I get 10 tries per hour!" Aika happily cheered as that is equivalent to 5 potions per hour.

Confused on why they're acting like they would be injured a lot, Line wanted to ask, but before she could do so, they spotted two War Shadows and a Frog Shooter from the distance.

Line just got ready when Sona suddenly pointed her hand towards the monster, 'Magic?' What she didn't expect, however, is that a magic circle instantly emerged in front of her hand and a lance made out of water materialized after it, shooting towards the Frog Shooter, killing it before it could even realize what's going on, 'Hmmmm?… Did she ever call out the name of her magic?… Weird… I didn't hear anything. Maybe she just whispered it?'

A few seconds after that, however, she suddenly saw Aika and Koneko disappearing in front of her and before she realized it, both of them are already in front of the two War Shadows… Crashing into them, 'Hmmm?… What's going on? Since when did they arrive there? There are at least 20 meters from our position to the monsters… And why did crash onto the monsters head-on? Isn't that dangerous?'

It was this moment that Line slowly realized that something isn't right and an unknown premonition in her is starting to surface.

The moment they made contact with the monsters, Aika and Koneko killed them in an instant by aiming at their magic stones. And aside from throbbing legs, both of them have their nose bleeding, "What are you doing planting you face on that guy, Koneko-chan?"

"I could ask the same, Aika-senpai…"

"Well, I got too excited when I heard about the heals…"

"Right… Free heals… We don't have to buy potions… Kisuke-senpai's stingy mindset is affecting us."

"W…What?" Line could only mutter such as too many questions surfaced in her mind so it took her a few seconds to gather her thoughts and arrange it, "What are you doing on this floor?" Is her first question.

Sona started walking towards Aika and Koneko, "What do you mean?"

Line followed her steps and explained her question, "Aren't those two at least Level 3 if they're capable of that kind of speed? I, however, don't understand why they would bash their heads on the monsters."

Sona didn't answer immediately, "Please heal them first."

Line nodded and healed their legs and their bleeding nose. She understands why their nose is bleeding but she doesn't get how they injured their legs.

" "Thank you." " Giving their gratitudes, Aika and Koneko dusted their clothes.

"You're asking why we're on this floor? Simple, we're all Level 1s."

"What…? But how could they…" Line was about to ask then a certain possibility entered her mind, "Ah, I see… So you're Level 1s who're already on the verge of leveling up. Now I understand why their legs are injured. It probably due to some skill that boosts your speed in exchange for stressing your legs each use."

Aika smiled and said, "No way's that's the case. Although you're right about our technique putting stress on our legs, it's because we haven't master it yet. And besides, we only became Adventurers yesterday and received a Falna a few days ago…"

"What are you…"

"In other words, we only have I-rank basic abilities so we're still pretty far from leveling up." Koneko continued.

"…Hah?"

"By the way, Kaichou. Shouldn't you call out a cool name when you cast your magic?" Aika suddenly asked.

"No way I going to do something as embarrassing as that!"

"E-embarrassing?" Line finally recalled the weird magic, "Chanting, which is required for all magic, is embarrassing?" Line didn't know what kind of fantasy hole she descended today.
