An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being

Episode 353: Rescue

"Ora ora ora oraa!!"

 I hit the monsters at random without thinking about it.

-Papapapapapapapapapapapapapaan!

 The monsters burst, opening the way to the explorer. At that moment, the vanguard Shia, Amane, and Rei pass through that path and arrive at the missing person.

"Haa!!"

"Seii!!"

"Nnh."

 The three turn to face the approaching enemy and blow them away in a single flash.

"I'll ask of you for a moment!!"

"Nn!!"

"Leave it to me!!"

 After asking Amane and Shia to keep the enemies away, Rei speaks to the missing man. In the meantime, the other two annihilate the enemy in three directions. I'm in charge of the last side.

"Are you alright?"

"Wh, where is this!? It's a place I've never seen before!! Who are you guys!? Enemies!?"

 When Rei speaks to the victim on behalf of everyone, he replies in confusion as he cannot keep up with the dizzying changes.

 If we make a small mistake, he may be attacked.

"Calm down and listen. We're here to help you. We're not suspicious or enemies. We're going to destroy the monsters around us now, so could you be docile for a little?"

"U, understood. Please."

 However, when Rei calms down the explorer, perhaps using her mental skills, he calms down, nods, and immediately becomes docile.

 It's not good to use mental skills for evil, but I don't think it's bad if it's used like this.

"God Bless!!"

 Just then, Nanami's magic explodes, and the monsters she recognizes as her enemies disappear.

 Now is our chance.

"Okay, come over here now."

""Roger!!""

 Taking advantage of the fact that all the monsters in the area have been wiped out, Rei and the others bring the explorer and come over to me and Nanami.

 Considering our mission, there will be no problem as long as we secure this missing person, so there won't be any complaints if we just go home.

 But, I can't leave a Stampede alone.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, but ..."

 I apologize for getting everyone involved in my selfishness, but I open my mouth to ask for their help in ending the Stampede.

"Onii-chan, you already know without me telling you!!"

"Nn!!"

"It's as Nanami says!!"

"It's natural, isn't it!!"

 But, before I say everything, everyone understands what I want to say, and everyone cooperates.

 I'm blessed with my party members ...

 I am so happy that I mutter such in my heart and chuckle "Thank you!! Let's do it, everyone!!" I raise my voice.

""Roger!!""

 Everyone nods in unison and turns to face the entrance of the dungeon. Monsters begin to appear from the entrance of the dungeon.

 Luckily, Amane will be a force as they are not insect-type monsters, rather demi-human monsters such as Kobolins.

 There is no Explorers' Guild or Hunters' Guild that seems to be a branch office in the area. This place is probably a Stray Dungeon. It doesn't look like Japan to me.

 The explorer we helped got out of the dungeon safely.

 It can be said that the man who was saved was quite lucky.

 We just keep attacking and annihilate the monsters that appear.

"It never seems to end!!"

"This is certainly quite long."

 However, as Amane says, the Stampede we encounter this time is by far the longest I've ever experienced. Except for the invasion from the sea, of course.

 We've been defeating them for three hours, but there is no sign of it subsiding.

"Anyway, there is no choice but to keep defeating them."

""Roger.""

 Then, we continue defeating them for another three hours. The Stampede is finally over.

"Haa ... Haa ... I'm tired ..."

"This is ... as expected ... tiresome ..."

"Nn ..."

"It's tough ..."

 Nanami and the others are all lying sprawled out in exhaustion.

 It can't be helped because this time it was really hard.

 For some reason, even Rei, who seems to be more skilled than me, is tired, but her mental skills were probably more stressful than expected.

"I'm sorry for forcing everyone to do this. It really helped."

"It's natural, we're the same party."

"That's right!!"

"Nn!!"

"Don't worry about it."

 When I apologize, everyone answers with a smile even though they are tired.

"Then, the person we helped ..."

 When I look around, I find the explorer crouching a little further away.

"Umm~, excuse me. It's over, so it's okay."

"He?"

 When I put my hand on his shoulder and call out to him, he looks up and makes a stupid face.

"That's why, the Stampede is over."

"Eh, ah, is that so. Thank you. You saved me."

 When I tell him the same content again, he nods and thanks me as if he finally understands.

"We have received a request from the Explorers' Guild to undertake your search and rescue. Rest assured that we will transport you safely to Japan."

"Thank you very much ..."

 After that, Rei gets up and talks to him in the same way as the first time, but he loses consciousness halfway through.

 It seems she knocked him out with a mental skill.

"It's better not to show the transition via Luck."

 Rei answers me, perhaps I had a questioning face.

"Certainly, it's better not to be seen as much as possible. Thank you."

"No, don't worry about it. Let's transfer immediately."

"Roger."

 After thanking Rei for taking care of us, we transfer to Japan.
