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

"Over there is..."

Everyone looked up and saw a cave emitting a crimson light, from which thick mist billowed out like an old pipe.

Bartin grinned and said, "Found it! The Immortal Relics!"

Chapter 67 Researcher's Diary

The cave entrance was covered in moss and was no more than two meters long and wide. The rock walls were emerald green, and the inside of the cave shimmered with a crimson glow.

In ancient times, such places would have been called altars of immortals, where heroes could gain the immortals' approval by passing their tests.

In modern times, most of these areas have only left behind ruins, but there may still be treasures left by immortals among them.

The group moved quickly forward and entered the cave one after another.

It's just that it's Dekomori's turn...

"Dong——" sound.

Dust settled from the cave ceiling.

Everyone turned around and found that Tu Shou's warhammer was stuck at the cave entrance; the huge hammer could not be put into the cave at all.

Tu Shou tried a few more times, and with a few thuds, a pile of rubble was shaken down.

Seeing that it wasn't working, she turned around and bowed deeply to Mad Moon Hammer, saying, "Brother, this is the best you can do. I will carry your share of the effort together into death!"

As he spoke, he took a pair of golden hammers from his waist and walked in.

"Let's go."

The crowd remained silent and followed quietly.

The cave shimmered with an eerie light, while cold liquid dripped from the rock walls, making Lefia and Arisa somewhat frightened.

The most daring players, Tuo Shou and You Yi, played as forwards, with Batin in the back row.

"Go, go, go!" Yui raised her fist and charged forward like a husky that had broken free of its reins.

Dekomori was a beat behind: "Heh! Um... could there really be some kind of ghost or something?"

Lefia swallowed and looked at Nathan.

The little man pushed up his glasses: "According to unreliable research, there are no ghosts in this world, only half-living people or skeleton sheep..."

Arisa thought for a moment, then roared, "Isn't that even more terrifying?!"

"Then there's no problem, Death!" Dewstone, having received the answer, swung his twin hammers and charged out: "Wait for me, Death!"

The group exchanged glances and hurried to catch up.

The cave was deeper than anyone had imagined. The deeper they went, the less mist there was, replaced by scorching hot earth, with red light flashing like the beating of a heart, as if it were the interior of some creature.

The sound of rocks cracking and breaking rang out.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from the rock wall and grabbed Tokishori's shoulder.

"Ugh—" Tokumori's face turned pale as he slowly turned around, and a skeleton warrior broke through the rock wall and crawled out.

There was a thud.

With a flash of sword light, the skeleton's arm was severed, and Tushou slammed his hammer into the rock wall, instantly turning the monster into ashes.

"Be careful, there's more than one monster!"

Batin chopped down a monster that was closing in from behind with an axe, and slowly joined the others.

The group formed a circle around the defenders.

Nathan analyzed, "The rich magical energy easily attracts monsters from the surrounding area; it is their food and their source of power."

"According to ancient texts, all the ruins of immortals and spirits present similar 'tests,' so don't panic."

Just as Nathan said, the monsters around them were not strong and were nothing compared to most of them who were level 2.

Tushou brandished his twin hammers and unleashed a whirlwind slash, forcefully clearing a path.

Yuki moved effortlessly through the monster horde, her sword flashes filling the air and ashes scattered.

The black cat and Lefia were protected in the back row, preparing their magic. As the black wind erupted, an aura of curse spread, and then a magic circle lit up beneath Lefia's feet.

[The arrow of liberation, the bow of sacred wood, I am a master archer.]

Clang, clang, clang—

At the front of the group, Yui swung her guitar tomahawk, and a death knell-like sound erupted.

The girl's voice wasn't bad, but not a single word was in rhythm, and her guitar playing was terrible, which almost caused Lefia to stumble and accidentally detonate her magic.

The team members all felt a surge of nameless anger, but it was stuck in their throats due to the current situation.

The black cat exclaimed, "You sang very well, don't sing again next time."

Fortunately, the monsters were even more irrational and had already lined up to charge at Yui.

The item's taunt effect is active.

Yui grinned, raised her arms, and jumped up...

The crows kept cawing, and I kept wondering when they fell asleep.

I'll find a way too, and sing a song for everyone...

"Everyone! Let's get this party started!"

A sound similar to an electric guitar, played wildly by the magic stone, drew more and more monsters toward Yui. The effect was comparable to shouting, "Come here!"

Dominated by the death melody, the companions unleash their fury upon the surrounding monsters.

"Stop singing! Stop singing!"

"Hahaha, the power hidden within the O-pie has surged forth!"

"You're definitely not talking about breast milk, are you? You're definitely not!"

Bang bang bang bang—the monsters surrounding the squad fell one after another under the fury of the crowd.

[Arc-shaped ray!]

Amidst the horde of monsters, Lefia's lightning bolts exploded, clearing a space in the narrow passageway.

Yui stopped playing and swung her guitar at the fish that had slipped through the net.

With a soft splatter, blood and flesh flew everywhere...

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Yui jogged back and held out her palm to Lefia.

Lefia also instinctively reached out...

"Yay! Complete victory!"

Their palms met, and Lefia paused for a moment, then smiled and slapped back...

"Yay..."

"Hahaha, let's go! The magnificent O-pai awaits us!"

"That kind of thing doesn't exist anymore!"

Yui's cheerful nature made everyone forgive her earlier terrible singing voice.

……

As the tunnel construction progresses...

The group arrived at a strange cave. Inside were various books and instruments, all of which seemed to have been hastily destroyed.

Arisa rubbed her index finger across the table.

No dust...

This suggests that someone must have used this place not long ago.

"How could there be traces of human habitation in the Immortal Ruins?"

The black cat pulled out a notebook that hadn't been destroyed yet and looked at it: "What's this?"

The writing system in the DanMachi world is strange, roughly similar to English. Because she had studied angelic script, she was able to recognize it completely.

"Monster fusion experiment?"

On July 21st, I tried to fuse a unicorn's horn into a unicorn rabbit's head. If successful, I'll have an inexhaustible supply of Horns of Light.

[August 3rd, failed. But I didn't give up, and the unicorn rabbit evolved! It grew hooves, hahaha.]

[On September 31st, a kind merchant gave me a piece of flesh and blood. I succeeded; I fused the flesh and blood of a goblin and a Liskarm.]

On October 25th, you'll never know what that goblin discovered? It defeated a dragon!

[On November 17th, that goblin broke free of control. Damn it, how can a monster possess such high intelligence? Is it because it ate that dragon? It actually escaped with the experimental subject!]

On January 31st, I thought I had no chance at all, but the businessman came again and said he had something fun for me.

[March 10th, hahaha, this is truly a stunning masterpiece, fusing the most sacred and the most filthy things in the world, I'm a genius!]
