Chapter 52 - Anyway, it's bothersome.
※Another POV
"Memeno-san. Please take a look at the map."
"Why is that? The map shouldn’t matter because we’re just following him."
"He's not heading to the floor boss' room today."
Member A wore a serious expression, but honestly, it didn’t matter. If I took it too seriously, I couldn’t do anything.
"Well, where is he heading then?"
"If we keep going like this, it's a Monster House or a dead end. He's baiting us."
"Hmm, that may be right. Well, let's go as it is. I'm tired of walking around."
"Maybe he’s setting a trap."
"Well, B. Aren’t you the newcomer? Walk on ahead."
"By myself?"
Member B looked dissatisfied again.
"Yeah. You don't have to worry. Even if he sets it up, the trap is just a pitfall. It’ll be fine to just walk while prodding the ground with a spear."
If they actually thought about it, they’d understand, but they were really stupid. You could tell by watching the Ochimusha channel. The trap Negishi set up was always a pitfall. Wasn’t that enough preliminary research? These guys, seriously.
"... I understand."
"Well, go on quickly. I want to get home early today."
Member B didn’t seem so convinced, but he didn’t go against what I said either. He took the lead and began prodding the ground carefully before each step. Well, even if B falls into a pit, it won't affect me.
"Look, the sun will set if you're too slow."
"… Right."
"Hurry, quickly!"
"...Ye, yes."
#######
While B was moving slowly, Negishi was quickly disappearing from our grasp. I was tired of B being so useless.
"Memeno-san, If we go to the right here, we’ll see the Monster House. The left is a dead end. What do we do?"
"HuHH? Are you stupid? There are two people, so each person should pick a side and go."
"But the trap…."
"We’ve been walking leisurely and haven’t fallen into any traps yet. You just have to get out before the pitfalls are filled. Do you only have monster-level intelligence or something? You guys–"
"... I understand. I'm going, then."
"… Sure."
Members A and B both turned the corners and disappeared. Ah, I want to go home early and just relax. After I eat cup noodles, I can just go into the futon without being bothered and sleep all day. Generally, this matter wasn’t something I needed to bother myself with. I thought it would be okay to leave it to these two guys and just go home. That's right. I needed to go back home. Right.
"Memeno-san, there was no one there!"
"Same here!"
Tsk. It's still too early for them to come back. These guys.
"What do you mean? What's inside the Monster House?"
"The Monster House was vacant. No one was inside."
"That's why Negishi died at the Monster House, can't you think of that?"
"No, since this is only the fifth floor, I doubt that’s the case…."
Ah! B seems to be really cheeky!
"Well, what should we do now?"
"This time I’ll check it!"
Member A went into the Monster House. If Negishi did happen to be in the Monster House, I'd seriously call out B for it. I’d tell Tomizawa-san and dispose of him.
"Hey, B. Not B. Newcomer. You should check the dead end."
"Kah, Kah."
"What?"
"Kah, Geho."
"Hey, B. What's wrong? Weird."
"Gehogehogeho."
B spewed blood from his mouth and sank to the ground. Ah, dirty. A spear stuck out from the wall behind him.
"This guy!!!"
Ahh! It looks like we were set up!
T/N ...poor A and B meet their end so fast.
