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

After adding the "User Notice" and "Newcomer Tutorial" to the helmet's data, Xia Jia snapped his fingers.

Twenty of the magic circles scattered across layers 1-8 began to glow.

Immediately, monsters matching the floor number fell to the ground with a croak.

……

Hayasaka Ai.

She is Kaguya Shinomiya's personal maid. Because her brother entrusted her to collect information about Kaguya, with whom she grew up, she became a double agent caught between the two.

Because of her guilt towards Kaguya, she would watch some "stress-relieving videos" alone late at night to cure her insomnia.

By sheer chance, she discovered this game that allowed people to enter a dream world.

With a "let's give it a try" attitude, she clicked the appointment button.

On this ordinary day, she was surprised to receive a package sent to her. It was a high-tech helmet.

That very night, when she was experiencing insomnia again, she put on her helmet and uttered the word: Link start!

Colorful light enveloped me, and my consciousness seemed to travel through time and space, arriving in a chaotic space.

Above, someone murmured: "[Please select your initial race.]"

Hayasaka Ai scanned the series of monsters and chose the race closest to humans: War Shadows.

Immediately, a flash of white light appeared, and light returned to her eyes.

Gululu.

A black, slimy substance dripped from the rock wall. After bouncing for a moment, the slime slowly stretched out its body, becoming a pitch-black shadow.

Hayasaka Ai seems to have acquired some knowledge that she shouldn't have.

You are an ordinary [War Shadow], a monster born on the 5th floor of the dungeon. You have a heart that loves humans and cannot bear to do anything to harm them.

The dungeon is dangerous. Your crazed companions will kill you and devour your flesh, and adventurers will also target you.

Try to survive and devour more of your own kind of magic stones to gain greater power.

Perhaps due to inherited memories or something else, Hayasaka Ai quickly understood her situation.

She looked around; two others had been born at her time, and before her stood a group of rookie adventurers. They swiftly swung their battle axes, cleaving one of the shadowy figures in their path.

Hayasaka Ai knows that she should leave here first and slowly figure out the game.

On the sixth floor of the dungeon, Sakura glanced strangely at the monster that had retreated into the depths of the maze and murmured:

"Strange, how did the monster escape?"

Ming, however, didn't care: "Never mind, let's go to a deeper floor. This time, our target is the 13th floor."

……

Hayasaka Ai hid behind the rock wall, watching the adventure team leave. She reached out and looked at her hand, which had turned into claws.

"What a strange creature. It's clearly liquid, but it can't change its form at will when it transforms into human form?"

Her gaze fell upon the other creatures of her kind wandering the floors. In a flash, her figure transformed into a three-bladed arm, easily tearing their hearts apart.

As the monster's internal organs splattered and bodily fluids sprayed, Hayasaka Ai suddenly realized something.

"Shinomiya Hiromitsu, you deserve to die! Die! Hehehe."

Suppressed emotions erupted in the carnage. She controlled the bodies of the war shadows, leaping across the rock walls. With each leap, a war shadow was torn to pieces.

She crouched down, took out the magic stone from the monster's body, and slowly put it in her mouth to chew. An incredible power erupted within her.

"It seems I've gotten a little stronger." A smile slowly appeared on Hayasaka Ai's otherwise dark face.

She fought and slaughtered relentlessly, and her kind around her seemed to notice Hayasaka Ai's abnormality and began to gang up on her.

She was also injured at one point, forcing her to reduce her monster-killing efficiency.

She rested against a corner of a rock wall, lost in thought:

"I might need armor, and weapons would be nice too. Hmm... the gameplay here seems to involve devouring other players to grow stronger..."

"So, in order not to be killed by other players, I have to get equipment."

She turned her gaze to some novice adventurers passing by.

She tried to muster the killing intent, but a feeling of disgust within her forced her to abandon that option...

Until she saw a pair of adventurers...

One of them had long purple hair, wore magnificent armor, and had a long sword at her waist. The other was a girl with chestnut hair, who asked somewhat nervously:

"Hey, Yuki, how about we stop here? We've already had quite a lot to show for it today."

"Hey, these magic stones are only enough to buy about 10 potato balls. Let's try harder... Daze! Asuna, I'll protect you."

Chapter 273 The Battle of the Newbies

Hayasaka Ai stood warily in front of the two adventurers.

Yuuki stood to the side and instructed, "Asuna, do you remember the fighting style I taught you?"

Asuna drew her rapier, lowering her center of gravity: "Is that so?"

Yuki nodded: "That's right. Keep your eyes on the monster's feet and calmly analyze its movements. These newly hatched monsters are very rigid and easy to spot."

Asuna's gaze sharpened, and she leaned forward, charging forward with her sword drawn.

Hayasaka Ai was startled, and seeing the longsword Asuna handed her, she turned her head to dodge. Taking advantage of this posture, she launched a flying kick, striking Asuna in the abdomen.

Goo!

"Asuna?!"

The Shadow of War's attributes are not high; it is only a monster on the fifth floor. What can threaten adventurers is the three sharp claws on its two hands.

Asuna clutched her abdomen, stood up again. The curse had a numbing effect, so she didn't feel any pain, but she was a little dazed from being suddenly hit.

"Yuki. This monster seems different from the ones we fought before."

Yuuki also drew her longsword, looking warily at Hayasaka Ai in her battle shadow mode: "Do you need my help?"

Asuna shook her head: "It's alright, this kind of monster is just right as the answer sheet for a day's training."

Her gaze sharpened, her spirits soaring: "Break free from all these cages!"

As the starlight descended, the bruises on Asuna's waist and abdomen faded away, and her skin and muscles began to glow subtly.

If this were a game, she would likely see a similar buff at this point.

Overtreatment

• Adds random buff effects.

• This effect increases armor.

Seeing this, Hayasaka Ai dared not be careless. She cautiously moved around Asuna. It was rare to find an adventurer who did not arouse disgust. Defeating her might allow her to steal her equipment.

and……

Hayasaka Ai's gaze fell on Asuna's waist, where the magic stone they had used to defeat the monster was located.

Defeating an adventurer is equivalent to more than ten times the experience points of a regular monster!

The battle continues.

Asuna picked up her rapier again and charged forward. With her excellent athletic ability, she had already learned how to use weapons under Yuuki's tutelage.

However, compared to Kaguya-sama's personal maid, who is skilled in various disguises, assassinations, and infiltration techniques as a spy, Hayasaka Ai has far more experience than Asuna.

She might not even be as good as Yuki.

Asuna's rapier came swiftly like a storm, but Hayasaka Ai simply tilted her head, jumped back, and slid.

Using the wall as a cover, she maneuvered and easily evaded Asuna's attacks.

Yuuki, arms crossed, offered a word of advice: "Asuna~, watch your step, don't rush your attack, lower your center of gravity, and save some strength for your sword strikes. Also, look into her eyes... uh, never mind, she didn't..."

"Yes!"

Asuna agreed, got into a fighting stance, and stopped making any rash moves.

Seeing this, Hayasaka Ai had no choice but to launch the attack herself.

She could tell that this person was probably a novice, as his attacks were too immature. On the other hand, the purple-haired adventurer behind him gave her a feeling that he was invincible.

It seems the chances of defeating her are very slim...

So Hayasaka Ai shifted her focus, fixing her eyes on the prop bag at Asuna's waist.

As the figures moved swiftly, the three claws of the battle shadow slashed through the air. Asuna pushed off with one foot, ducked to avoid the attack, and then thrust out the rapier that had been waiting in the air from her waist.

"Successful!"

"Hmph, too inexperienced!"

The Shadow spoke, causing Asuna to freeze for a moment. In that instant, its claws sliced ​​through the air and landed on Asuna.

With a ripping sound, the leather armor was ripped open in three places, and fabric flew everywhere.
