Chapter 104 - 103: Yui Goes To The Dungeon
After Yui registered with the Hunter Association and they updated her Hunter Card...
"I can\'t believe that now I\'m Rank E+. It\'s almost like I\'m dreaming, degozaru," Jingu thought in an exaggerated fashion, conveying what most were feeling. Until recently, they were all Rank F, the lowest rank of a Hunter.
"So be happy, it\'s real," Nero smiled and said.
That didn\'t stop them from admiring Nero, not because of her charm, well, she was very charming... Wait, not that, they really were grateful and adored her, yes.
Nero turned to Yui and said softly, "I have some spare pieces of armor. Yui you can use them in the dungeon when you come with us."
"En." Yui nodded obediently and hummed. Why was she so happy? Well, because she got so strong with the power Nero gave her. \'Now that I stop to think, I \'gave\' wings to Nero and Nero gave me a new body and a lot of power. Yes, we are both very good friends and future girlfriends. But, Choko is boring; she doesn\'t want to let me be her girlfriend too... I need to think of a way. Maybe I should be Choko\'s girlfriend too, but I just like Nero...\' Yui was obviously confused as she let her thoughts run wild.
The city layout was something new for Yui. Where she remembered having lived, it was a poor village and she didn\'t even have anything to eat and was even sold by her parents. So it was a surprise for her to see such a beautiful city with well-made buildings and clean streets, and especially how people loved Nero. \'Yes, Nero is amazing.\' Yui also agreed with what several said.
\'Now I\'m thinking... That woman with long black hair was Nero\'s older sister, yes? The one she said was going to save her, and she always talked about her. Mm, she helped Nero save me. I need to thank her. Yes, I\'m very grateful to her, but I hate Nero\'s other older sister… errr, Eliane. Yes, I remember Nera, who now changed her name to Nero, crying in the night asking why Elder Sister Eliane did this to her... Nero doesn\'t know that, but I always felt sad when she had these nightmares and cried a little...\'
\'Huh? What is this horrible feeling?\' Yui looked in the direction and saw a man walking with his face hidden by a cap of his jacket and walking with his head down. \'This man is not a good person. I need to warn Nero!\'
Before Yui opened her mouth, she noticed a smile on Nero\'s face and forgot what she was going to say. She also realized that that suffocating sensation had passed and heard Nero mutter. "It worked, as I expected."
\'She did what? Huh?\' Yui opened her red eyes wide as she couldn\'t hide her surprise.
Nero rubbed her head and said, "Stay here. I\'ll talk to that \'friend\', okay?"
Yui wanted to tell her not to go, that it was dangerous, but it was too late. Nero disappeared in front of everyone; no one could keep up with her speed.
\'She took the man up into the sky?\' Yui tried to find Nero and when she looked at the sky her vision could see Nero\'s wings flap very fast. It was so fast that in a few seconds Yui lost sight of her.
"What happened?!" Everyone was stunned, but then Nero came back as quickly as she had left.
"Mm, sorry about that. I went hunting a \'mouse\' who was trying to cause trouble. Well, now it\'s okay." Nero gave a slightly predatory smile, but it was charming in the eyes of the beholder.
"Another assassin?" Choko muttered.
"Yeah," Nero nodded and said coldly, "But it was just a mangy dog my sister breeds. It wasn\'t strong, and it had a weak mind. It probably never knew how and when it died."
\'This time she had dispatched a Rank D assassin. Heh, I\'m glad she is so proactive in offering fertilizer to my slime... Gabi is increasingly looking like a human. With the help of my dear \'sister\' I\'ll make her even more humanoid,\' Nero scoffed internally.
Even people controlled by Eliane, Nero killed with indifference, without shaking her emotions. Those who wanted to kill her must die. She wanted to survive, not die. She wasn\'t going to stop living, and would never give her \'sister\' a chance to try to kill her again.
After changing when arriving at the inn, Yui looked devilishly sexy in Nero\'s old leather outfit, however, Nero made her wear an overcoat so as not to leave her body so exposed.
"Pretty?" Yui spun in front of Nero.
"Yes," Nero nodded.
"Excellent!" Yui looked like she had won the lottery when she heard Nero affirm her outfit.
Choko was going to say something, but it would be weird, because in fact, Yui was beautiful. As much as she hated to admit it, Yui was beautiful. It could be said that she was the second most beautiful woman Choko had ever seen.

Back in the dungeon, Nero said, "The first floor, can you leave it to Yui to kill it by herself? She has never fought before. It would be nice if she had some experience."
"Fine by me~" Honda agreed in a whistling tone.
"No problem for us either," Jana spoke for her, Jair, and Breno.
"The same, degozaru," Jingu relaxed her hands behind his head and gave a refreshing smile.
"I don\'t care. I\'d rather stay with Nero." Choko hugged Nero\'s arm and smiled victoriously at Yui.
"...I also prefer to be with Nero."
Yui was about to take Nero\'s arm, but she heard Choko say, "Are you sure? Nero came up with this for your own good, but are you going to reject her?" Choko asked seriously.
Yui froze. She looked at the cats and her dragon eyes turned mercury color with a slit in her eyes. Her hands turned into claws, it was a battle mode skill called Black Dragon Claws. A pair of black dragon-style wings, but with fallen angel feathers, appeared and she flew away. Her speed was hampered, but little by little she got used to it, and with her claws she cut the cats that couldn\'t even scratch her skin when attacking her.
She wasn\'t proficient at actually fighting, she just randomly slashed cats, but she was strong, with 1500 points of strength. She only needed to slash towards a tiger or lion, and the head and body were all ripped to shreds.
A predatory smile formed on Yui\'s face as she fought. She started to have fun. Maybe that was because of the predatory instinct of the black dragon, but she felt her blood boil and the feeling of happiness pulsed in her as her teeth got a little bigger - but not on a scary level, something like a vampire, just a little bigger fangs.
When she killed the boss just as easily as the others, she frowned and felt a slight disappointment, but it didn\'t last long. She went back to Nero\'s side and felt a little pain trying to hide her wings, but not as much as the first time. Her hands also returned to normal, as well as her teeth.
"Done," she smiled.
"Well, you are quite capable." Nero nodded, but added, "But you made a mess. You\'ll clean it up all on your own, I won\'t."
"Oh, okay." Yui didn\'t care and started walking around the dungeon while picking up the remains with her Hunter Card. By the way, she was already taught to use the basics of the Hunter Card, so she was able to use it now. After finishing, she came back.
"Okay, let\'s go to the second floor," Nero said. She was the only one who was feeling calm about this situation, but Jingu and the rest were open-mouthed.
"Sigh~ We got another powerful member. Our group is becoming very powerful." Honda sighed in astonishment but smiled afterward.
"That\'s right. The stronger we are, the better, degozaru," Jingu was simpler and wasn\'t too surprised. She was just happy with Yui\'s strength.
\'Oh, gorillas? They look more capable.\' Upon reaching the second floor, Yui rubbed her lip with her forefinger as she thought.
Nero summoned all her summonable monsters.
"Ohh!" This took Yui by surprise, which made her hug Nero in fright. Yes, she did it because she was scared, not for any other reason.
"Yui, you did that on purpose, yes?" Choko suspected.
"I don\'t know what you\'re talking about…" Reluctantly, she let go of Nero\'s arm and looked at the summoned monsters.
Touching her lip again, she frowned, she didn\'t know if they were strong or not, but she saw two gorillas in the middle. \'Doesn\'t that confuse them?\'
To her, they both looked the same, although she thought the white gorilla was quite unique, while the other gorilla looked like the dungeon boss. In any case, she kept waiting. She didn\'t know if she should start attacking or not.
"Mm, no need to wait. Start attacking, and I personally don\'t want Monster Cores below level 12," Nero said.
"Ohh, so we can keep level 11? Mm, that\'s cool somehow." Jana smiled. She started to summon fireballs and attack. With her current strength, she needed to create small solid balls to attack. She tried to imitate Nero with the arrows, but she could only get a maximum of 10 fireballs at the same time to use in an attack, but she could keep that up for 5 seconds, so it wasn\'t bad.
"Is it over yet?" While Yui was lost in her thoughts, the fight was already over.
"Well, they are weak." Nero shrugged. "Let\'s go to the third floor."
"En." After she saw everyone move quickly and pick up the bodies from the ground, Yui saw how professional they were. In less than one minute they had killed everything and collected all the bodies, \'How used are they to doing this are they? Yui needs to try harder!\'
