After helping the Hestia family to settle all the loans owed very efficiently, Gao Muming and Bell entered the dungeon again.

Perhaps just as Hestia guessed, one of the effects of Akira Takagi's skill, 'Fear of Insufficient Strength', has the hidden function of attracting monsters.

After the two entered the dungeon, they encountered the same experience as yesterday, and the frequency of encountering monsters was much higher than when Bell was adventuring alone.

"Fortunately, according to Gao Muming's guess, the effect of the skill is not continuously activated but is very intelligent, because when the two of them were resting and eating, they never encountered any monsters."

Gao Muming was thinking silently in his heart while picking at the lunch box in his hand.

"Although I'm not sure, I just have this feeling. To be on the safe side, I'd better observe it for a few days."

The days passed in peace. If there was any real situation, Takagi Akira had a very deep communication with the other four members of the Soma clan, and received a sum of mental loss and compensation from them respectively.

After tossing the purse containing more than 6 faris up and down, a somewhat bored expression appeared on Takagi Akira's face.

"When I took their money, they looked so shocked that I thought they could get a lot of profit, but the average amount was only a little over 10,000 per person."

"If I hadn't become an adventurer, this amount of money would be a huge sum of money for me. But for me who has become an adventurer and activated the golden finger, this little bit of money is nothing at all."

"I really shouldn't have expected too much from these scum. What a waste of my expression."

"They are all experienced adventurers, but they only have so little money. It's really disappointing."

"But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. If they really had a lot of money, they wouldn't have robbed me when I was penniless."

In the early morning, Gao Muming and Bell came to the dungeon to explore as usual. Due to a week of high-intensity battles, Bell's ability value increased very quickly.

Without worrying about the spoils, Bell quickly dealt with various monsters that appeared along the way and soon arrived at the stairs to the fifth floor.

Feeling his remaining physical strength, Bell looked at Gao Muming with bright eyes.

"The current condition is fine, let's go explore the fifth floor."

After hearing Bell's words, Gao Muming rarely did not agree immediately, but spoke in a somewhat emotional tone.

"Half a month, fifth floor. Is this fate?"

Hearing what Gao Muming said, Bell tilted his head and looked at Gao Muming with some curiosity.

Knowing Bell's current ability, Gao Muming was sure that Bell had the capital to explore the fifth floor. Gao Muming nodded in agreement to Bell's reasonable request to go deeper into a new floor.

"Since you feel you are in good condition, let's continue to explore deeper."

After seeing Gao Muming's agreement, Bell no longer cared about what Gao Muming's exclamation just now meant, and stepped onto the stairs leading to the next floor with all his heart.

After entering the fifth floor, Gao Muming couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.

"Is it fate? The difficulty of the exploration has increased so much, but Bell still reached the fifth floor in half a month."

Regarding the original story where Bell encountered the Minotaur on the fifth floor and was rescued by Sword Princess, and then started his own cheat-like life, Akira Takagi had no intention of interfering too much.

"After all, this is a dungeon with complicated passages. Even if I wanted to replicate the original situation, I don't know when and at which intersection Bell met the Minotaur on the fifth floor."

Looking at Bell fighting hard in the front, Gao Muming sighed lightly.

"By the way, Bell, who has become so much stronger, should be able to run away long enough before the Minotaur catches up with him until the Sword Princess arrives and kills him."

"Not to mention the various items I have that can interfere with the monsters' perception. With proper coordination, escaping calmly is not a problem. But Bell probably won't be able to use cheats because he was rescued by Sword Princess. Well, forget it, let everything take its course and leave it to fate."

After fighting with the monsters on the fifth floor for a while, Takagi Akira and the exhausted Bell began to eat.

At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps came from a distance and reached the ears of Gao Muming and Bell who were eating.

Hearing the noise, Bell stopped eating and looked in the direction of the sound with some vigilance.

"What's that noise? Is that the sound of a monster running?"

Because the noise was so loud, Bell was a little unsure of his guess.

And Gao Muming looked at Bell with a complicated look.

"This noise is most likely caused by the Minotaur that caused Loki's followers to flee in all directions in the original novel. Fate is truly strange."

Gao Muming sighed in his heart, immediately packed up his lunch box, stood up and spoke to Bell at the same time.

"This noise doesn't sound right. Bell, we'd better leave as soon as possible."

Just as Bell heard Gao Muming's words and stood up to leave, the huge body of the Minotaur appeared at the other end of the passage.

Bell cried out in fear when he saw the figure rushing into the passage.

"Mi...Mi...Notau...Loss!!!!"

The Minotaur, who was already extremely nervous while running for his life, was also stimulated after hearing Bell's scream. He roared and rushed towards Gao Muming and Bell with red eyes.

Gao Muming patted the frightened Bell, and at the same time reached for the backpack on his back, trying to get some props to disrupt the Minotaur.

At this moment, Bell reacted immediately, turned around, grabbed Gao Muming's hand and ran away, shouting in a collapsed manner while running.

"Isn't the Minotaur a LV2 monster that usually only appears below the 15th floor?"

Gao Muming, who had originally wanted to avoid exposing his own strength and use props to block the Minotaur's sight and then escape with Bell, was now being dragged and run by Bell with a confused look on his face.

Gao Muming, who was being dragged by Bell, could only throw an iron needle at the Minotaur, and the iron needle directly hit one of the Minotaur's eyes.

Looking at the Minotaur who was easily injured by him, Gao Muming once again threw out an iron needle. The iron needle, which should not have been able to penetrate the Minotaur's skin, miraculously pierced the Minotaur's arm with the help of Gao Muming's skills.

The Minotaur roared in pain once again and rushed towards the two of them at an accelerated speed. As the footsteps behind him became clearer and clearer, Bell shouted in despair.

"Why does the Minotaur appear on the fifth floor, which is suitable for novice adventurers?"

Knowing that Bell was venting his fear by yelling, and knowing that the Minotaur posed no threat to him, Gao Muming spoke calmly behind Bell.

"It's a dungeon after all. I'm not surprised if something special happens. And don't you think dealing with these emergencies is the real adventure?"

Bell, who was running away with Gao Muming, looked back at the Minotaur from time to time. After discovering that the Minotaur was getting closer and closer to them, a look of despair appeared on Bell's face.

Looking at the fork in the road not far ahead, a gleam of determination flashed in Bell's eyes.

"We can't all die here. As the leader, I have to step up. I'll leave the care of Master Takagi Akishinomi in your hands."

After saying that, Bell pushed Gao Muming to an intersection and shouted with the intention of dying.

"you go first."

Then Bell turned around and threw the lunch box in his hand at the Minotaur, trying to attract the Minotaur's attention.

The Minotaur, who was hit, was once again angered by Bell and chased after him in the direction he fled, roaring.

"I can't believe it. Bell is usually quite timid, but at the critical moment, he can act like a clan leader."

Gao Muming quickly retrieved the lunch box that Bell threw out, then he used the barrier to become invisible and carried a huge backpack, and followed the Minotaur very easily less than two meters behind him, to ensure that he could use the barrier to rescue Bell from the Minotaur at any time.

Gao Muming just watched Bell being chased by the Minotaur like a headless fly on the fifth floor of the dungeon.

What surprised Gao Muming was that during the long period of time that Bell was chased by the Minotaur, Bell did not encounter even one monster blocking his way.

"Even if it's a normal exploration, running through so many places like this without any disguise will lead to encountering monsters two or three times. But Bell didn't run into any monsters along the way, not even the weakest goblin."

"Could it be that the monsters sensed the Minotaur's presence and fled away?"

Just as Gao Muming was thinking this, Bell finally ran himself into a dead end.

By the time Bell found himself in a dead end and was about to turn back and escape again, the Minotaur had already blocked his retreat.

Looking at the Minotaur standing not far from him and roaring again, Bell felt a sense of terror sweeping over his body, making him tremble all over.

At this time, the Minotaur had forgotten the fact that he had been on the run before. Facing Bell's reaction like a frightened rabbit, the Minotaur's desire to hunt was greatly satisfied.

Bell just watched the Minotaur approaching him step by step. When the Minotaur raised his fist as big as a casserole in front of Bell, the fear of death spread in Bell's heart, and he trembled like a quail and put his hands over his head.

Gao Muming looked around the road behind him and saw a golden figure rushing towards him. After looking at the Minotaur who had raised his fist, Gao Muming couldn't help but frowned.

"Based on the situation at the scene, Sword Princess Ess Wallenstein will not be able to save Bell in time."

Thinking of this, Gao Muming raised his hand, and barrier magic appeared in front of Bell, blocking the Minotaur's heavy punch.

Bell, who was huddled in the corner, did not feel the Minotaur's falling fist for a long time. He raised his arm slightly with some confusion, revealing an eye full of fear.

In an instant, the Minotaur's ferocious face dripping with saliva appeared in the boy's pupils. Bell subconsciously kicked the ground with his legs to try to shrink his body a little.

Just when the Minotaur was wondering why he failed to kill the prey that was so close to him and was planning to attack again, the Sword Lady Ess Wallenstein finally arrived.

Looking at the Minotaur's raised fist, Ais, worried that someone might get hurt, threw her scabbard directly at the Minotaur.

The Minotaur, whose knee was hit by the scabbard, knelt forward, and the huge body of the Minotaur was pressing on the barrier protecting Bell.

Just when the Minotaur wanted to turn around and chase Ace, the barrier that was originally used to protect Bell directly changed its shape and restricted the Minotaur's movements.

Ais noticed that the Minotaur's movements were a little unnatural, but she quickly drew her sword and cut the Minotaur in half.

The blood of the Minotaur spurted out from the wound, directly soaking Bell, who had been staring at Ais's beautiful face since she appeared.

After recovering the scabbard she had just thrown out, Ais looked at Bell, who was still slumped on the ground covered in blood, and tilted her head to think for a moment.

Because of her family's relationship, Aisi made the Minotaur run all the way from the 17th floor to the 5th floor, and almost caused a tragedy. She felt it necessary to ask the victim for compensation and apologize.

So Aisi walked up to Bell and stretched out her hand to him.

"Are you OK?"

It was not until Aisi's hand reached in front of him that Bell came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream. Looking at Aisi's outstretched hand, his heart was beating violently, his mind went blank, and then he shouted and ran away in Aisi's somewhat puzzled gaze.

Gao Muming, who was worried about Bell, immediately followed him.

Watching Bell's departing back, Aisi turned her gaze to the magic stone dropped by the Minotaur. After seeing the two iron needles dropped near the magic stone, Aisi's calm eyes showed a slight fluctuation.

Bell, who had escaped from Ais, could not suppress the smile on his face at all. It was not until Bell returned to the third floor in one breath that he realized that he had been separated from Gao Muming.

"I don't know how Gao Muming is doing now."

Bell said this and planned to go back to look for Gao Muming's trace.

Seeing Bell about to return to the fifth floor, Gao Muming lifted the invisibility effect of the barrier magic behind him and patted him on the shoulder.

Bell turned around with some fear and put on a defensive posture, but when he saw that it was Takagi Akira who took the photo of him, he instantly relaxed his guard.

The journey back to the ground was exceptionally peaceful, except for Bell who kept chattering to Gao Muming about how powerful and beautiful the swordsman Ess Wallenstein who saved him was.

"I don't know if Miss Es Wallenstein is dating or has someone she cares about. When I get back to the ground, I'll go to Miss Aina in the guild and ask her about Miss Es Wallenstein."
