[81] Leading a New Protagonist!



[81] Leading a New Protagonist!

Faced with Bell's face full of refusal, August naturally had a solution.

Crack!

August tightened his fist, and a fierce beast's aura accompanied it.

"What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly."

"I-I'll go..."

Leaving behind tears of pain, Bell had to bow her head under the eaves.

August nodded in satisfaction. One couldn't help but feel the impulse to bully her when Bell emitted a certain charm.

This could be considered a kind of talent.

In this way, following behind August, Bell held a short knife and cautiously looked around.

It was as if monsters would jump out the next second.

Observing her short knife, August didn't need to guess, it was definitely the novice weapon distributed by the guild.

Priced at around a thousand Phalans, it was considered the most common weapon, a guild's support for all new adventurers. However, practically, it was only useful up to the fifth floor, and beyond that, it wasn't of much use.

"Bunny, what are you afraid of? I'm here. What are you afraid of?"

"But... Lady Hestia said the dungeon is very dangerous, and we must stay vigilant."

Thud!

"Then you should go into the dungeon first. You haven't even reached the first floor, who are you guarding against?"

"Oh, haven't I arrived yet?"

Looking at the spiral staircase beneath her feet, she thought that after stepping on it, she would be in the dungeon.

"I say, do you lack common sense?"

"This... um..."

Bell's gaze drifted outward with a guilty look, confirming August's suspicion that she was quite naive, a true greenhorn who knew nothing.

"Bunny, when you register as an adventurer in the guild, don't they provide newbies with instructions? Don't you have one?"

Since August was led by Riveria herself, he naturally didn't receive such things. With a big shot guiding a newcomer, who needed those?

"Well, there seems to be one, but because I was so happy to become an adventurer, I forgot about it."

"You're really something."

"Sorry."

Bell lowered her head, looking like a guilty little creature, making it hard to get angry.

"I didn't expect that I'd have to guide a newcomer within two months of coming to Orario."

"Two months? August, you just came to Orario recently too."

Bang!

Another chestnut struck Belll's forehead hard.

"Call me big bro."

"Yes, big bro."

With her head in her hands, Bell's eyes were already filled with tears.

"I came to Orario two months ago, and now I've just started. Although I'm not very powerful, it's enough to guide you."

"Oh."

For a moment, excitement sparkled in Bell's eyes, transforming from her earlier teary appearance. Honestly, it felt pretty good for August to enjoy the admiration of a little fan.

"Alright, come with me. Today, big bro will show you around the dungeon. You can broaden your horizons."

"Yay!"

Watching the energetic Bell, who had just seemed like she was about to cry a moment ago, August led his little tail toward the dungeon.

After returning to the first floor, the dim walls made the atmosphere oppressive.

Upon seeing the true appearance of the dungeon, Bell was somewhat surprised, but more than that, she was curious.

Click!

At this moment, a goblin crawled out.

"Ah, a monster!"

"Don't make a fuss. This is just the weakest goblin. Pick up your weapon and kill it."

"Me? Can I?"

"If you're going to the dungeon to kill monsters, why did you come here? Hurry up."

"Okay..."

Bell shrank her head, afraid August might hit her again. She drew out her short knife and cautiously approached.

However, facing a monster for the first time, Bell was undoubtedly terrified and cautious.

"Ahh!"

Suddenly, the goblin let out a scream and charged towards Bell.

This scene startled Bell, who subconsciously took a step back, struggling to maintain her grip on the short knife.

"What are you doing, waiting to die? Kill it quickly!"

"Yes!"

August's shout made Bell shudder. She instinctively dodged the goblin's attack, and her short knife swept across its neck, instantly killing the goblin.

Seeing this, August nodded silently. Truly, as a protagonist, her reaction and instinctive counterattack were excellent. Although she was just starting out, her future was limitless.

After all, she was protagonist in this world.

In just one and a half months, she ascended to Level 2, in a month to Level 3, and in two months to Level 4. In Volume 15, Hestia even mentioned that Bell could upgrade to Level 5 at any time.

This upgrade speed was like cheating, the epitome of protagonist treatment.

You should know that it took Ais two years to go from Level 1 to Level 2. Yet, here was Bell, who not only surpassed that but had enough time to reach Level 5. With the plot continuing to develop, she might even reach Level 6.

Click~ Click~ Click~!

At this moment, Bell, who had just dealt with a goblin, hadn't had time to rejoice before three more goblins appeared around her.

"Ah!"

Bell was suddenly startled, subconsciously retreating to August's side, as if being with him provided some sense of security.

"Hey, what are you afraid of? These are just appetizers in the dungeon. You haven't seen the real danger yet."

As August spoke to Bell, several goblins all rushed towards him.

"I'm educating my lil bunny. Who do you think you are, rushing me?"

Hum!

Golden ripples appeared, and three swords slowly revealed themselves.

Then, three swords shimmering with a golden glow shot out, instantly taking the lives of the three goblins.

Bell watched all this with great excitement.

The attack style of Gate of Babylon was truly magnificent.

And being a fan of hero legends and somewhat chuunibyou, Bell was extremely excited when she witnessed this scene.

"Big bro, is this magic?"

"This is my skill, a kind of magic."

"So amazing, big brother, what's it called?"

"Gate of Babylon!"

"Gate of Babylon?"

"I possess a treasury trove large enough to store all the treasures in the world. The swords just now were taken from the vault and used for the attack."

"Oh my goddess!"

Bell's red eyes sparkled like a rabbit's.
