DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

In just two seconds, he bypassed the tree dragon's blockade and appeared behind it.

"Get down!"

The fist, wreathed in flames, slammed down from above.

A terrifying shockwave, carrying flames, struck the tree dragon in the back, and with a mournful cry, the tree dragon plummeted to the ground.

As the smoke cleared, the tree dragon struggled to its feet, letting out a ferocious roar as it spewed forth endless venom, its target the rapidly falling Shaga.

"Now!"

The black cat roared, and a jet-black beam of light struck the tree dragon's back. Corrosive venom was slowly eroding the base of the tree dragon's wings.

“Aaaaaaaaaa——”

Yuki leaped out from the side, roared, and purple sword light exploded in an instant, with 22 sword shadows hitting the corrosive scales in a flash.

Yuki's attacks are weak, but if she thrusts 22 times in the same spot, that's 22 times the damage output. Even the weakest attack is enough to hurt the monster.

The purple light pierced through the corroded scales, tore through the muscles, and penetrated the bones. After a burst of purple light, one of the tree dragon's wings drooped.

It was injured.

"Well done!"

Shaga spun sideways, facing the venom that was spewing out. His hands rotated around his ankles, and his boots emitted a flash of electricity before beginning to glow with iridescent light.

"Fourth gear!"

With complete concentration, Shaga's body fell freely due to gravity. All the flames of [Red Flower Threads] were concentrated on Shaga's boots, bringing out a dazzling golden light.

This is not over yet...

"The state of selflessness! Forged through countless trials!"

At that moment, his spiritual energy erupted, reaching the pinnacle of refinement, concentrating all his power into this single kick, doubling his strength attribute.

"6000, 8400, ... the value is still rising, 16800!"

The black cat watched the battle from a distance, its thumb and forefinger forming a camera shape. As Shaka's power reached its peak, it provided the following voiceover:

"Bang! Damn it, the detector exploded!"

Kaori Miyazono retorted, "Damn it, are you some kind of Super Saiyan from somewhere?!"

As Shaga concentrated all his muscles, the power of this strike soared to over level 4, approaching level 5.

"Knight Kick! Flame Flower!"

whoosh-

Shaga streaked past countless branches trying to protect the tree dragon like a meteor, his right leg bursting with fiery golden light as he plummeted against the dragon's breath. The attack struck the tree dragon directly in the neck.

A burst of fire erupted, the tree dragon's neck bones bent and deformed. He stepped on the tree dragon's neck, leaving a trail of flames on the ground before slowly coming to a stop.

The tree dragon twisted its neck, the huge fiery wound nearly destroying its respiratory system.

It first gave Shaga a venomous look, and as if in a final counterattack, an eerie green light emanated from its body. At the same time, the ruby ​​on its forehead emitted a dazzling, strange light.

Countless plants converged on the top of the tree dragon's head, their branches intertwining to form a giant hand that fell towards Shaga.

Xia Jia squatted on the ground, took a breath, and forcefully shot a kunai towards the direction of the tree dragon.

Before the giant hand descended, Xia Jia vanished in a streak of starlight, reappearing close to the tree dragon. Xia Jia slowly raised his leg, flames erupting once more. Meeting the tree dragon's puzzled gaze, he said calmly:

"You're stupid, I can use Flash."

"Ichiku!"

With a powerful dragon tail kick, the tree dragon's neck was completely shattered, and its head flew up with the force, rolling several times on the ground.

Plants that have lost their source of power wither and disappear in an instant.

The surrounding area once again felt desolate.

Xia Jia landed on the ground, her body staggering slightly.

He forced out a second kick with the [Thousand Hammers] effect, putting his body into a state of temporary exhaustion.

Doubling your strength comes at the cost of the activity of other organs throughout the body, which will not only make them sluggish, but also cause a huge drain on your energy in a short period of time.

For a typical tennis player, doubling their strength would only create a slight burden. However, with Xia Jia's level 4 attributes, the doubling of strength resulted in a huge boost, causing him to overexert his stamina in a short period of time.

"It seems that one strike is the limit."

Feeling a slight numbness in her right foot, Xia Jia paused for a moment, picked up the tree dragon's head, dug out the magic crystal, and slowly returned to the team.

at this time.

Seven men in black robes stood silently at the barren explosion site, counting their spoils.

"Dragon Jade with excellent magical properties, level 4 Magic Crystal, drops from about fifty level 2 monsters, and 300 Magic Stones. Hmm, the total value is probably around 4000 million Fali."

Leila's judgment.

The biggest prize is definitely the drops from rare monsters, such as the Tree Dragon's Magic Core and the Dragon Jade.

Although this trip was a bit risky, it was very rewarding.

Next…

"You've been watching for so long, it's time to come out," Leila shouted to herself.

The air was completely still.

Chapter 176 Audacious Prodigy, Trying to Show Off His Skill Before an Expert!

Senior, your trick doesn't seem to be working.

Leila didn't give up. She glanced sideways at Shaga, slowly pulled down her hood, and said:

"After so many years, won't you come and see my old friend?"

"Haha, now that we've been found out, brothers, let's say hello."

In the distance, amidst the ruins of trees blown away by the shockwave, a young man wearing sunglasses slowly walked out across the rubble.

He carried a crimson spear with a lightning bolt-shaped tip, his face arrogant. Behind him followed ten companions, all wearing cruel smiles.

He's obviously not a good person.

At the same time, the sharp-eyed Shaka spotted the dark cage hidden in the ruins behind the man.

That was a style that Xia Jia was very familiar with, so it was only natural!

He recalled information about this man from his past life:

Dix Perdix. Level 5.

This is the leader of the Ikelos Familia. As a descendant of Daedalus who built the man-made labyrinth Knossos, he is now capturing monsters for the dark faction to maintain the funds needed to continue building the labyrinth.

Each member of the Daedalus lineage carries a blood curse that compels them to continue building the labyrinth.

It's practically an alternate world version of the Foolish Old Man Who Moved Mountains, with his descendants going on endlessly!

In order to ensure the prosperity of their descendants, they would even kidnap and imprison women to use as their reproductive tools.

Dix and his brother Balka were both children born of firearms.

My thoughts have reached this point...

"This is difficult."

Xia Jia's gaze locked onto the newcomer.

Dix, carrying his rifle, strode arrogantly toward the epicenter of the explosion. He stopped fifty meters from Shaga.

“An unfamiliar face, a newcomer?” Dix sneered, turning his gaze to Mame-no-suke.

"You seem to have caught something quite rare, huh? How about we make a deal? Sell me the cat you're carrying. I can trade you something even stronger."

Dix was very excited to hear the black cat and Mamenosuke talking.

Finally, it's not one of those speechless monsters anymore; only talking oddities will utter pleas when they're being tortured.

Xia Jia stood with his hands in his pockets, seemingly unaware of who his opponent was.

"I'm sorry, but they are our family. You should give up on this idea."

"Huh? You treat these disgusting monsters as family? How could Thanatos accept such oddities into his familia?"

“Never mind.” Dix slowly raised his face, looking at Shaga with disdain: “You seem to have misunderstood something. I’m not trying to get your opinion.”

"It's an order to you!"

Xia Jia slowly drew his longsword. The previous outburst had left him feeling somewhat exhausted, but he had to pretend to be nonchalant.

Dix is ​​a level 5, even if it's a terrible level 5 sewer!

At the height of tension...

hum-

A ripple flashed across the sky, and Asphie slowly removed her mask, glancing at Dix first:

"Which clan do you belong to? What are you trying to do by capturing monsters?"
