Lets be an Adventurer! ~Defeating Dungeons with a Skill Board~ 88
Lets Learn About The Treatnt thod!
Would you be willing to retire as an adventurer?
What?
Haruki failed to understand what Akane had said for a mont.
Retire as an adventurer?
?
When he finally understood the aning of Akanes words, Harukis blood began to rise to his head.
What are you talking about? Youre joking, right? Theres no way I would quit being an adventurer!
Im not joking.
Then why are you talking about that all of a sudden?
Because Ive heard about this condition of yours.
Akane was looking straight at him.
She didnt seem to be joking or asking him out of whim. She was serious about it.
However, no matter how serious she was, there was no room for consideration.
Haruki had just beco an adventurer last spring.
Only three short months had passed since he had fulfilled his long-sought wish of becoming an adventurer.
His level was rising steadily, and his skills were getting considerably stronger.
Without any information, he had tackled the garage dungeon and reached all the way down to the middle floors.
He had just gotten started being an adventurer.
There was still so much more he could do.
The endless road was completely clear to Harukis eyes.
There was no way he could consider quitting at this point.
I have absolutely no intention to quit.
Even if youre no longer human?
Huh?
Akanes words fell on him like a splash of cold water.
The blood that had risen to his head cooled down and started to recede.
What do you an?
I only have a bit of information about it, but it seems to be a side effect of leveling up. If they keep on leveling up rapidly, normal creatures can turn into monsters.
Both Haruki and Karens faces stiffened after hearing Akanes words.
The general public had a tendency to shirk adventurers, who could obtain physical abilities that are far beyond the average human being.
So ordinary people who hate adventurers would even think that adventurers are nothing but so kind of wannabe army of re criminals.
Five years had passed since the first Stampede.
Unfortunately, the world had yet to fully accept adventurers.
Leveling up could turn him into a monster.
Haruki could easily imagine that if this rumor were to be leaked to the outside, adventurers would be in a dangerous position.
Especially since so little is known about this condition.
Akane sighed and sat back on her chair. What did she think about Karen and Harukis faces?
If you defeat the monsters that appear in a dungeon, you will feel that your body is getting stronger, unlike defeating ordinary animals, right?. Thats how much the monsters in the dungeon are capable of strengthening your body. I dont know what that is yet, but I think its so kind of life energy.
Defeating a monster actually strengthens your body. Then, what if you defeat a lot of monsters and strengthen your body a lot? In animal experints, there have been results when their bodies themselves had changed. Ordinary animals have beco monsters. In other words
Akane made a short pause and furrowed her brow.
It is very likely that the change in your body is the sa phenonon those animals experienced. The energy obtained by defeating monsters is accumulated without being taken into your body, so your body itself changes. And thats why your body hurts.
Im going to turn into a monster?
Haruki scraped those words together out of his dry throat.
It was a dreadfully shrill voice.
Thats possible. Thats why Id advise you to retire now, because the best way to avoid turning into a monster is to stop taking energy from monsters into your body altogether.
Are there any other adventurers with this condition?
There are, but only a few. Maybe this only happens when the rate of energy getting accumulated exceeds the rate of its absorption into the body.
Akane then shrugged her shoulders, saying People who level up really fast like you are more likely to get this condition.
But why only Karaboshi?
It may not be just him.
So could I have this condition as well?
If Air has it, then its possible you have it too.
I I see
Akane and Karen exchanged a few words.
Haruki was dumbfounded by their conversation.
Haruki and Karen ford a team in order to tackle the dungeon.
They were almost the sa level, but so far only Haruki had shown to have any symptoms.
Damn it!
Haruki clicked his tongue and put his hand on his forehead.
There was no mistaking the reason why he was leveling up so fast. It was his Growth Acceleration skill.
He had never expected that skill to be such a pitfall.
Theres no dicine to cure it, right?
No. And theres no dicine that can alleviate the symptoms either.
I I cant believe this
It cant be cured?
He couldnt find the words to finish what he was trying to say. The future before him seed bleak.
We adventurers have this universal dicine we could use, right? Wouldnt that help sohow?
It wont. This is not a disease.
Karen put her hands together in front of her chest as if praying.
