Chapter 136 - Chapter 136 How Many Floors Must a Bag of Rice Carry?

Despite the error in their Falna, it didn't affect Hyacine and Barbara's awareness of their own strength. Even if Loki and the outsiders couldn't see the girls' status values, they themselves were very clear about them.

"To think the system's protection has reached this level..."

"Is the shielding based on the power of Aegler, Barbatos, and the others?"

Except for Hyacine and Barbara themselves, no other human or god could see the status values on the two girls' backs, including Loki, the goddess who had just engraved the Falna.

As a result, whatever specific abilities they gained were up to Hyacine and Barbara to say, since no one else could see clearly anyway.

In reality, they didn't gain much benefit from the shielding itself, but after a careful investigation, both Hyacine and Barbara confirmed one thing...

They were both characters with Max Constellations and Max Refinement!

Hyacine was no longer just a Healer who could fight and heal; she was a berserk Healer who could convert a massive amount of healing into damage!

As for Barbara, her healing methods had leveled up several notches; she could even resurrect teammates if they accidentally died!

Healing conversion and Resurrection Magic—either of these would be considered a 'bug' in the world of DanMachi, and now they had appeared together...

Because of their soul connection, even some of their skills were shared. It was no wonder the system shielded such shocking skills and magic; it wouldn't even let Loki see them.

Fortunately, this didn't stop the two girls from leveling up; they could clearly feel that they were currently Level 1 Adventurers.

"So, is this the Dungeon?"

"Here we come!"

Except for one werewolf, most people in the Loki Familia were very kind and offered advice to the two girls.

When first becoming an Adventurer, it was best not to rush into the Dungeon to explore, or one would surely suffer for it.

Hyacine and Barbara thanked the seniors for their guidance, then ran into the Dungeon when they weren't looking... From the outside, they seemed like the 'good girl' type, but in reality, they could be a bit rebellious occasionally, like right now.

"Is this a Goblin?"

"It doesn't look that strong?"

Watching a small green monster rush toward them, an image of a certain expert who killed Goblins with Dark Souls difficulty inexplicably popped into their minds...

But unfortunately, Hyacine and Barbara weren't some Goblin Slayers; there was no need to chase down such small mobs.

During this time, the healing amount they had recorded had broken through the heavens. It wasn't that easy to use up all at once; if used properly, it could be used to deal with various monsters in batches.

It was best to use these powerful magics on high-level monsters; that way, they could not only increase their stats significantly but also accumulate 'Excelia' to level up.

So, facing such a weak monster, Hyacine took the lead, took out her magic staff, and launched a charge at the Goblin.

"Hyacine, go for it!"

Neither girl had fought a Dungeon monster before, but they had the combat experience from their previous roles as Cerydra and Hysilens. So, even though they were now Healers, they wanted to test their melee capabilities.

Barbara's weapon was a book; she couldn't exactly go up and bash things with it, could she? Hyacine's weapon was a staff, which was relatively better.

Every Healer has the heart of a warrior. As a descendant of the Sun-Thunder Knight, Hyacine should have some talent in this area... right?

Whatever, let's go up and try a staff strike first!

"Take this! 'Chasing Fire to Save the World, Action is Imminent'!"

With the boost from her second constellation, Hyacine's speed was naturally faster than an average Adventurer and far exceeded the monsters on the first floor.

The wind's blessing brought her in front of the monster almost in an instant, and then she swung her staff down...

It was a slash from the top right to the bottom left. If one looked closely, they would see it was the sword-swinging motion of Lord Phainon, and even the skill name was identical.

"Having fought alongside Lord Phainon, I have naturally engraved his sword movements into my mind. I will never forget them!"

Whether it could deal effective damage was another matter, but she certainly remembered it, because Hyacine was a character of the 'Remembrance' Path!

Thud!

The seemingly powerful blow landed precisely on the Goblin's temple, drawing the monster's blood directly.

If an ordinary person, or even a low-level Adventurer, suffered such a fatal blow, they might fall into a coma.

But monsters were different!

Although blood flowed from its forehead, this Goblin quickly shook its head, scrambled up from the ground, and rushed at Hyacine again.

"Waaaaagh!"

Perhaps because it was injured, the Goblin acted even more frenzied than before, completely disregarding its own death to eliminate the human before it.

"As expected, our physical damage isn't enough..."

Although they had anticipated this, the girls were still a bit disappointed when the reality was laid bare.

The combat techniques from the previous world couldn't be used at all in this one. Hyacine and Barbara's physiques might be stronger than an average person's, but they were far from the level of a normal warrior. Even with the speed boost from Hyacine's second constellation, it was difficult to deal effective physical damage.

"It seems we have to take the Mage route!"

"But before that, let's conduct an experiment first."

As the monster made its heroic charge, Barbara also moved in that instant, picking up the book in her hand and slamming it toward the Goblin's head.

Professor Ratio said knowledge is power, and it can be used as a weapon.

But for this Goblin, the damage was ultimately too low to eliminate it.

But that wasn't what the girls cared about...

"Okay, I've pinned it down, hurry up and heal!"

Taking advantage of the monster's charge, the two girls easily used its momentum to pin it to the ground, while giving the Goblin's head another whack, making it bleed even more.

What Hyacine and Barbara wanted to try was healing the monster to see if it could be included in their mission.

If this could be done, then there would be much more room for maneuvering... How many floors must a bag of rice carry?

Looking at the Goblin pinned to the ground by the staff, Barbara took a deep breath and simultaneously cast healing on the monster.

"Wagh?"

This sudden healing even left the Goblin dumbfounded, completely unable to understand what these two humans intended to do.

But even so, it was still a monster produced by the Dungeon; it had to eliminate these two humans!

Meanwhile, the two girls stared intently at the healing count; as long as it could +1, it meant healing monsters was also effective.

"No way... it actually added?"

"Healing monsters works too?"

Looking at the gradually changing number, Hyacine and Barbara both showed expressions of disbelief. At the same time, they looked down at the completely healed Goblin, their eyes revealing an unprecedented excitement.

On the other hand, the Goblin, which had still been struggling, seemed to freeze up because it felt a terrifying gaze...

When it slowly turned its head to look at the two humans behind it, what met its eyes were brilliant smiles.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Goblin!"

"You've been a huge help!"

Shortly after, the Goblin died.

How tragic...
