These Familiars Are Strange-Chapter 113: Boss, is this for me?

A lich…

It was one of those famous monsters that one heard stories about.

In short, it was one of those monsters that could be considered a disaster since it was a monster that could create even more monsters. Every person that fell at the hands of the lich could become another monster.

That was why whenever a lich appeared, a disaster zone would be declared and everyone would be evacuated.

There were few people that lived to tell the tale after fighting a lich.

And it seemed that there was a lich in this dungeon.

Was it the boss of the dungeon?

If it was, then this dungeon wouldn’t just be considered a C Rank Dungeon, would it?

It felt like it was leading up to something and I couldn’t help feeling worried about this, but in the end…there was nothing that I could do about it now.

I was already here, so it wasn’t as if I would run away.

If I couldn’t beat the lich, then at least I could still run away.

That was the thought that passed through my mind before I started looking at the other items that the Scavenger Rabbit presented me.

The other items were more expected from the Skeleton Knight.

It was a set of bone armour and a bone sword.

I didn’t need them to be appraised to know what kind of power these two items had.

Just rapping on it with my hand was already more than enough to show how strong these two items were.

After I finished examining the items, I turned around to wave for Wang Rong and Iris to come over.

Though before turning around, I made sure to slip the Lich’s Seal away.

It wouldn’t be good to show this thing to the two of them.

Making them worried would just harm us rather than help us.

Once they came over, I could see the way that Wang Rong was looking at the items that I was holding.

So I just casually handed him…the armour.

"Boss, is this for me?" Wang Rong asked in a strange voice that seemed to have a trace of disappointment.

I could see the way that he was looking at the sword that I was still holding, as if he wanted it as well.

But I didn’t hand it to him.

There was something else that I was planning on giving him.

With a nod, I said, "That and something else."

With a wave of my hand, there was a large sword that suddenly appeared in front of me.

When Wang Rong saw this, his eyes opened wide since he recognized it.

It was the great sword that he had wanted previously, but I had taken for myself.

Now that I had found a better sword, it was only natural that I would pass this great sword down to him. If he became stronger with the great sword, then that would be good for our group.

But there was another trace of disappointment in Wang Rong’s eyes when he saw this great sword.

He looked at the bone sword in my hand with a longing look before picking up that great sword.

When he did, there was a bitter smile that appeared on his face since he could feel just how heavy this great sword was.

While he was able to wield it, it was definitely hard for him to swing it around.

It would be better if he took the lighter bone sword.

But it didn’t seem like I was going to let him take it.

Seeing the way that he looked at me, I just said, "Go on, swing it around a bit and see how it feels."

When he heard this, the bitter smile on his face became more bitter.

Wang Rong wasn’t a fool, he could clearly hear the teasing tone that was in my voice as I said this.

But still, I just waited for him to swing that sword around.

After swinging it around for a bit and getting a feel for it, it seemed like Wang Rong was getting used to the weight of the great sword. At least it seemed that he was swinging it much more smoothly compared to before.

So I said, "Why don’t you put on your armour as well and test it all together."

Wang Rong’s face had another bitter smile appear on it when he heard this.

He looked at me as if he was asking me to let him off, but I just looked at him with a smile as if I was just waiting for him to do it.

In the end, it was Iris who spoke up to help Wang Rong.

"Shouldn’t we leave this place? There might be other monsters that show up soon since the Skeleton Knight is dead."

With a nod of agreement, I said, "You’re right, we should go."

If it was before, I wouldn’t have done something like tease Wang Rong like this.

If it was before, I would have been completely focused on clearing the dungeon as soon as possible and getting as much loot out of this place.

It was certainly different now since it even felt a bit fun exploring the dungeon with them.

I could tell that I was slowly opening up to the two of them and feeling more relaxed around them.

Perhaps this might be a bad thing in some cases since it made people sloppy, but I didn’t feel that it was a bad thing in this case since it felt like we were working better than before.

There was a sense of trust that was hard to describe between us…

Or perhaps it was just good to be able to trust people with some of my secrets.

In short, it felt good to have the two of them with me in this dungeon.

"Alright, let’s go before the Fanged Wolves disappear." I said before getting on the back of one of the Fanged Wolves.

Iris got on the same one as me while Wang Rong was left with the other one for himself.

We headed back to where we left the undead.
