Chapter 36. The 4th Floor: Re-Challenge (3)
“Hey, senpai, should I take this [Monster Appraisal] skill?”
“Ah, that’s one. It’s weird. If you say you don’t need it, you don’t need it…”
What Yuzuki consulted was about the [Monster Appraisal] skill.
[Monster Appraisal] is a skill that allows you to know the status, special abilities, weaknesses, etc. of monsters──that was the skill’s information on the internet.
However, on that net, most of the data that my predecessors investigated with [Monster Appraisal] has been posted.
There is a way of thinking that if you see it, you will be done, so if you say you don’t need it, you don’t need it.
However, this skill has an important point.
It also allows you to see the [Current HP] of the monster you are fighting.
Since we can’t see the HP bar of the enemy, this is very useful.
Especially in boss battles, this skill may become important for our mental health.
It is mentally tough to fight a long battle without knowing how much HP the enemy has left to go down.
When I gave this information to Yuzuki, she pondered.
“I want it, but I’m not sure if I want it right now. I mean, is there a boss battle in this dungeon?”
“There is a boss at the end of the 4th floor. I heard that if we don’t beat it. We can’t go on to the 5th floor.”
Kodachi-san interrupted from the side.
“I understand. Then I’ll take the [Monster Appraisal] before the boss battle.”
“Right. I’m counting on you, kouhai.”
“Eheheh. I’m also relying on onii-chan and Kazane-oneechan?.”
“Seriously, sweetie. Here here.”
“It’s true. Cute, cute?”
“Hey, wait! Didn’t the two of you use my head as a cushioning material?!”
Yuzuki, which had been patted around again by Kodachi-san and me, was somehow getting angry.
We continued our search smoothly, and soon it was time to return.
My [Mapping] skill indicated that the explored area had expanded to about 30% of the entire 4th floor.
However, we had not yet reached the boss’ location, known as the boss room.
Maybe I could aim for the boss’s room next time I explore the area.
We climbed the stairs to the upper floor, returned the way we came, and left the dungeon.
It was around five o’clock in the evening.
It was still bright at this time of the year, and the river’s surface was sparkling in the sunlight.
The one thing that grew during today’s exploration was, above all, Yuzuki.
On the 4th floor, she shot down goblin shamans with [Fire Bolt] every time she encountered one, so Yuzuki gained a lot of experience.
As a result, she made a great leap forward, rising to level 7 at once.

[Burn Blaze] (new!)
[Monster Appraisal] (new!)
Remaining skill points: 0
The first skill is [Burn Blaze], a ranged attack magic.
It consumes more MP than [Fire Bolt] and is less powerful, but it has the advantage of being able to attack multiple monsters at the same time.
We already confirmed that it is powerful enough to destroy goblins and goblin archers with a single blow at a high rate during today’s dive.
Furthermore, considering the possibility of entering a boss battle during our next exploration, we acquired [Monster Appraisal], although it was a little premature.
On the other hand, Kodachi-san and I did not level up. I’m at level 8, so I’m sure Yuzuki will catch up with me.
However, Yuzuki has another part-time job starting tomorrow, and our next dungeon dive appointment is in another week.
I had my last day of work the day before yesterday, so I am now free.
I have to earn my daily wages, and a week from now, Kodachi-san and I will be diving into dungeons together.
During that time, I will also focus on my training.
Let’s do our best in moderation.
