I refilled my bottle, prepared food, drinking water, etc., and flew to Greece. I always prepare food and water in Japan. I always prepare food and water in Japan, because drinking unfamiliar water in a dungeon can kill you if you get an upset stomach.

　When we arrived at the arrival hall of the airport, we let Elmore out of the shadows. This time, we didn't have time to ask the Adventurers' Guild to be our guide, so we decided to ask Metis-Elmore to be our interpreter.

　Elmore wears makeup studied by Metis. Thanks to this makeup, he looks human, but he wears sunglasses. He wears sunglasses because the "devil's eye" looks different from the human eye.

　Clarice and I are meeting at the Adventurers' Guild near Mycenae Dungeon. I have to get there by myself. In my case, however, I have an interpreter named Metis, which is reassuring.

First, go to the Adventurers' Guild and hire a guide. You will hire a guide there.

Yes."

　We asked the locals for directions to the Adventurer's Guild and went there.

　I negotiated with the branch manager of the Adventurers' Guild and asked him to introduce me to an adventurer. The Greek branch manager introduced me to Carlotta, a C-level adventurer. She was in her late thirties, I guess, and seemed to be a magician in magical attire. To my delight, she spoke English.

Carlotta, please make your way to Mycenae Dungeon."

I don't care how you thank me, as long as I get the money I'm promised. As long as I get the money I promised, I'm fine.

　What a blunt and rugged-looking female adventurer she was.

I need to get to Mycenae Dungeon first.

'It's going to be a bus or a rental car, which do you want?'

Let's rent a car."

　I gave him about 500,000 yen worth of local bills that I had exchanged for expenses.

　Carlotta rented a small car from a nearby car rental store.

If it's just the three of us, this will do."

　We get in the car and drive to Mycenae. Carlotta is driving.

What is Dr. Grimm going to Mycenae Dungeon for?"

Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

"To find out more about Bahamut the Giant Dragon."

Don't tell me you're trying to defeat Bahamut?　He's hard to beat, even for an A-level adventurer.

No, this time it's just an investigation. But I don't think we can beat them."

'Maybe you're slaying other named dragons or something?

　He nodded 'yes' to Carlotta's question.

I knew it. Dr. Grimm must be one of the best in the Class A rankings."

　Carlotta doesn't seem to be interested in rankings. As I recall, the ranking was thirty-sixth in recognition of his achievement in defeating Needshaig.

"Has anyone ever defeated Bahamut?"

No, I don't think so. A long time ago, a man named Maurice Colbert, ranked fourth in Class A, would have beaten him."

　Fourth place in Class A. That's pretty good. But what method did they use to defeat him?　Is there a record of it in the Adventurers' Guild?

By the way, the guy back there doesn't talk much."

　Carlotta said he was mute, and he was referring to Elmore. I glanced at Elmore, who was zipping around in the back seat, before replying.

'He's not a person, he's a shadow puppet. Shall I order him to speak to you?"

Shadow Puppets...... No, thanks. But you didn't look like a shadow puppet to me."

They are special shadow puppets."

　Upon arriving in Mycenae, we headed to the Adventurers' Guild there. There I met up with Clarice. Clarice turns to me and smiles. She is as beautiful as ever.

Dr. Grimm."

Sorry to keep you waiting."

I've been researching this Adventurers' Guild material for a bit, though, so it's not a waste of time. By the way, how about you?"

　Carlotta's face is tense when she sees Clarice's face.

'This is Carlotta, a member of the Adventurers' Guild in Athens. They sent me here."

I am Clarice Leandre from France. I am Clarice Leandre from France."

I know you well. I am Carlotta Rainaldi.

　Clarice is known to adventurers all over Europe, so Carlotta, as expected, is nervous.

　I look at Clarice.

What did you find out?"

Bahamut seems to be a very tough demon. I have read that its body is capable of tremendous regeneration, and that even if it is severely damaged, it recovers quickly.

　Clarice told me what she had researched about Bahamut, the giant dragon. Hearing about its blue flame breath, ability to fly, and immense magical power, I wondered if Palmiro could defeat it. I did not think that the Palmiro I knew was capable of defeating Bahamut.

Has Palmiro started the fight yet?"

　I asked Clarice.

Palmiro entered the dungeon four days ago, so he must have already fought in time.

　　　◆◆◇◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◇◆◇◆◆◇◆◆◇◆◆

　At that time, Palmiro arrived at the mid-boss room in the 30th level and looked like a different person compared to before. His body had been trained through training, and he had regained his fighting instincts by fighting the demons in the dungeon, and even his face had changed.

'Dear Palmiro, we are praying for your victory.

　The adventurers who had come to the 30th layer together approached Palmiro.

Thank you for your hard work. I will beat you this time."

　Palmiro entered the mid-boss room with his magic weapon Brunak in his hand. A 20-meter-long Bahamut was lying in the center of the large room.

　Bahamut, noticing Palmiro, stood up and roared menacingly. Palmiro's body trembled with the pressure of the sound as its loud roar echoed through the air.

　After enduring it, Palmiro poured his magical power into Brunak. The magical power was enormous, and was one of the things he obtained by drinking Amrita.

　Brunak, which was the spear of Rue, the sun god from Celtic mythology, began to store magic power inside it by converting it into enormous amounts of electricity. The Brünnhak in this state is thrown toward Bahamut.

　Brunak lost its form as a spear and flew to Bahamut as a bolt of lightning. The lightning bolt hit the shoulder of the giant dragon and pierced its strong body. It seems to have a penetrating power not found in ordinary lightning. The lightning bolt that flew out from its back returned to Palmiro and turned back into a spear.

　Bahamut's gaze became sharper with anger and he opened his big mouth. Parmillo, expecting a blue flame breath, activated "Blue Armor," a higher version of "White Armor," and covered his entire body with a blue magical membrane to increase his defense, then ran.

　A tremendous blue flame is spat out from Bahamut's mouth and tries to burn Palmiro. Palmiro activates "Fly" and flies away.

　After rising about two meters, Palmiro's body began to glide. With his speed, Palmiro ducked the blue flame breath, landed, activated "Dragon Killer," and attacked Bahamut. Unlike last time, he fought like a seasoned adventurer.
