Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~

Chapter 423

Dungeon of Scorching Heat (4)

After taking a break, we arrived at the third floor the next day.

Its warm here~

So warm~

The third floor was once again a rocky area like the first floor. The temperature was also warm, similar to the first level.

This dungeon had a pattern of temperature shifts: warm, cool, warm. And the temperature differences were quite extreme~

This doesnt seem good for our health n?

Wait a moment. If we were normal adventurers, we would take several days to conquer one floor, then leave and return to the town. And then, on a different day, we would challenge the next floor, right? For advanced dungeons, there are teleportation devices for each floor. There should be few like us who continue to conquer multiple levels in succession.

In that case, do temperature differences really matter?

Maybe its because of our conquering pace that our health might not agree~

(Oniichan, whats the matter?)

Joule asked with concern in response to my mutter.

N? Ah, yeah, I was worried that the temperature differences might affect our health.

(Indeed, this is a strange dungeon.Oh dear, Allen-chan, Elena-chan, even though its sometimes warm and sometimes cold, are you both feeling alright?)

Were okay~

I honestly conveyed my thoughts, and Feat hurriedly checked on the childrens condition. Well, it seems theyre fine.

Both of you, if you feel even a little strange, make sure to tell us immediately.

Okay~

They seemed full of energy.

Although Allen and Elena seemed to have no problems with things like catching a cold, I couldnt say for certain, so we needed to be cautious.

Well then, lets take it easy here Which way should we go?

That way~!

Allen and Elena both pointed in the same direction, towards the right. As always, they were in perfect sync.

Moreover, after indicating the direction, the two of them immediately started running in that direction. Joule hastily followed after them.

Radian, Vector, wait!

(Krrr?)

(Ehh!?)

I restrained Radian and Vector, who seemed about to run ahead. In response, the two animals tilted their heads as if to ask, Why?

Radian, stick with me. Lets train by facing some monsters around here.

(Krr!)

It seems youre very motivated! Vector, Mile, if you come across any monsters that dont seem too strong, could you lead them over here?

(Ohh, I get it! Leave it to me!)

(Okay! Ill assess the situation and have Vector drive them towards you!)

Feat, provide support for Radian. Bolt, while Radian is in battle, please keep an eye from above to make sure nothing interferes.

(Yes, you can leave it to me.)

(I wont let anything interfere, I promise!)

Everyone began to act promptly according to my instructions.

(Aniue, theres a Flame Rabbit coming from the front!)

Oh, great. Looks like they have corralled a suitable monster.

In an advanced dungeon like this, there wouldnt be many E or F-ranked monsters. D-rank would be acceptable. It seemed like Vector had done a good job.

Radian, even if you cant defeat it right away, just try hitting it with a spell. So, when youre in range for the spell, go ahead and cast it.

(If it gets close, Ill make sure to finish it off properly, so you can focus on your magic.)

(K, krr.)

Radian seemed a bit nervous, but not exactly scared.

Is it time?

(Krrrrrr~!)

As Radian unleashed Wind Cutter, the wind blades struck the ground slightly to the left of the Flame Rabbit.

Close, but not quite. Aim more accurately and try again.

(Krrrrrrrrr~!)

The next Wind Cutter hit the Flame Rabbit squarely, but it didnt seem to have enough power. The injured Flame Rabbit charged toward him in a fit of rage.

Its gotten a bit faster. Momentum-wise, I guess another shot is not possible.

(Leave it to me. Wind Cutter!)

Feat demonstrated by using the same spell as Radian to finish off the Flame Rabbit.

(Radian, this spell flies mostly straight ahead. Determine the direction carefully and aim before casting it.)

(Krr!)

Feat taught Radian how to use the spell, and Radian nodded repeatedly.

(Aniue, the next one is also a Flame Rabbit. Its coming from the front and slightly to the left.)

Radian, next ones coming. Are you ready?

(Krr!)

(Ah, a Flamebird is coming from behind! Ill handle that one!)

I will leave it to you, Bolt. Radian, focus on the Flame Rabbit.

--- ---

Since monsters were coming from both the front and behind, we decided that Radian would deal with the front, while Bolt would handle the rear.

(Krrrrrrrrr~!)

As the Flame Rabbit came within range of Radians magic, Radian cast the spell.

(Nice shot. One more time. Aim carefully.)

While he didnt manage to finish it off, there was room for one more spell. Feat encouraged Radian to follow up.

(Krrrrrrrr~!)

When Radians second spell hit, the Flame Rabbit fell and turned into loot.

(Krr, krrr!)

Well done. You did great, Radian.

(Good job~ Now, lets collect the loot.)

(Krr!)

As Radian went to retrieve the loot for the first time, Bolt arrived with loot obtained by defeating the Flamebird.

(Radian, you have managed to defeat it? You did so well!)

(Krrr~)

Perhaps Radian was embarrassed by the praise, as he nuzzled against me.

You did really well~ What do you think? Should we call it a day or keep going a little longer?

(Krrr!)

(It seems like he wants to keep going. The next monster might come soon, so Ill head back up.)

Thank you, Bolt~

(Yes, leave it to me.)

(Well then, Radian, lets get ready too.)

(Krr!)

As Radian was still willing to continue, we prepared to intercept the next wave of monsters.

(Onii~chan!)

Eh? Huh?! Radian!?

After defeating a few more monsters like that, Radian reached out through telepathy.

Youve learned telepathy already?! You are so amazing!

(Learned it! Radian is amazing!)

Radians first-person pronoun seemed to be Radian. Perhaps influenced by Allen and Elena?

(Feat, Onee~chan! Bolt Onii~chan!)

(Fufufu~ what a cute voice you have~)

(Youve learned telepathy already? Thats incredible!)

Radian seemed to recognize everyone as their siblings. In that case

Radian, when you call me, can you include my name?

(Takumi Onii~chan?)

Yeah, like that. Since you call everyones name with Oniichan or Oneechan, Id be happy if you called me that too.

(Okay~)

Being the only one just called Oniichan felt lonely, so I was glad we were all matching like this.

(Allen Onii~chan, Elena Onee~chan! Joule Onii~chan! Vector Onii~chan, Mile Onee~chan!)

Waaah!

((Ehh~!?))

(Radian, thats incredible!)

After a while, everyone who scattered had regrouped, and when they did, they surrounded Radian with surprised voices.

Radian, their little sibling, was showered with affection in a jumble of excitement.

Well then, when we reach the transfer area between the third and fourth floors, we should celebrate, right?

Ohhh~ we should, we should~

With the idea of celebrating Radians growth after conquering the third floor, the children became excited and quickly found the staircase to the fourth floor.

Wasnt this too easy?

I was still amazed by Allen and Elenas abilities.

Since its a celebration, Radian, you can choose what you want for dinner.

Yeah!

(Meat~)

Radians request was for meat, so we celebrated with a barbecue party.

After that, we continued to conquer the fourth and fifth floors at a pace of one floor per day. We eventually decided to take a break from the dungeon and visit the town of Gista for some rest.
