I have Became Able to Do Anything with My Growth Cheat but I Can not Seem to Get out of Being Jobless

Chapter 216





Translator: Tseirp


That was the first time I entered the second floor of the Beginner’s Labyrinth on my own .


There was a saying amongst the adventurers .


[The second floor of a labyrinth is a whole new ballgame compared to the first . ]


The first floor of a labyrinth houses the weakest monsters in the labyrinth .


It was said that if you could win one-versus-two of the first floor monsters, you could fight one-versus-one against the second-floor monsters .


In other words, fighting a single monster from the second floor was equal to fighting two monsters from the first floor .


That did not mean that the second-floor enemies were purely two times stronger than the first-floor enemies .


There were monsters called Large Bat in the labyrinth second floor . They hang from the ceiling and there’s the risk of being attacked from directly above if you let your guard down .


Also, their body tackle using their swift movements was said to be as strong as the blow from a sheep at the barn and could even dent iron armor .


But, thankfully I can use a spear with a long reach so I would not be defeated as long as I notice an attack from the ceiling .


(Although I only have a pickaxe now . )


Then, I stepped on something .


I kept looking up above so I seemed to have neglected my footing .


What was it? When I looked down, I saw fragments of rocks .


It would not be an issue to see fallen rocks in an ordinary cave .


However, in a labyrinth, that was not possible .


Any inanimate objects that fall to the ground inside the labyrinth, apart from those covered by a cloth soaked in some special fluid, will be absorbed by the labyrinth . Even rocks like those would not be exempted .


The time for the object to be absorbed differs according to the object but rocks like those would disappear in a few hours .


“Jofre huh?”


That guy . He’s using rocks instead of markers .


Certainly, if they plan to return within a few hours, placing rocks like this was not wrong .


He worked at a quarry . He probably had a large number of such scrap stones .


I guess that guy was using his head too – - .


It happened when I was seeing Jofre in a new light .


I noticed a moving shadow in the corner of my vision .


I hurriedly looked up and saw a Large Bat attacking me from above .


“ – – Tch!”


I thrust out the pickaxe with a strange cry .


The Large Bat sucked my pickaxe into its mouth .


The preparation for the Large Bar skewer was complete in the blink of an eye .


Cleaning up the mess would have been troublesome if this was the surface but the dead Large Bat disappeared like smoke, leaving behind Large Bat fangs and a magic stone . The Large Bat fangs can’t be sold so I only picked up the magic stone, took a breather and screamed after calming down .


“That guy is an idiot after all!”


Why would you choose markers that you have to take note of at your feet when you are in a labyrinth that requires your attention to be on the ceiling!


Well, Jofre and Elize are a team . If they have a clear role where one of them takes note of their footing and the other of the ceiling then it is possible but if they just leave a marking – – I picked up the stone Jofre left behind .


It was limestone so I could easily leave a mark on the wall .


The marking would disappear after a few hours too but it was probably better than leaving rocks on the ground .


By the way, if I mixed the limestone powder with the aforementioned special liquid, I would be able to create an ink that won’t disappear even in labyrinths but leaving markings in a Church-managed labyrinth was a criminal act so naturally, I didn’t bring any with me .


Nevertheless, it was good that I had a clue .


“All things aside, I’m surprised those two can pass through here unharmed . ”


The third floor ahead was the Goblin nest .


It would be quite tough for a low-level Apprentice Swordsman .


※※※


“Further down huh? That’s really going to be tough . ”


I rushed through the third floor while being mobbed by the Goblins .


“Hn?”


I found the stones that Jofre left behind but – – it was strange .


It was a dead-end .


“Sheesh, if you dropped it then pick it up . ”


I picked up the rock and threw it at the wall in frustration .


The rock hit the wall and rebounded – – or it was supposed to but it soared through the wall .


An illusionary wall!?


I have heard of places in labyrinths where there are traversable passages that look just like a wall but that was the first time I actually saw one .


In the first place, there wasn’t a single person who would run into a dead-end of their own volition in a Goblin-infested area . For that reason, nobody has ever approached that wall before .


No, I should change my phrasing .


Only an idiot would enter a passage that seems to be a dead-end in a Goblin-infested area .


“Jofre, Elize, are you guys there!?”


I shouted towards the illusionary wall .


“Hn? That voice belongs to Garrison! We’re here . ”


“We’re here, Garrison!”


They replied .


Thank god, it seems that they are all right .


I approached the illusionary wall while keeping an eye out for traps .


Behind it was a small room-like space without any monsters .


Moving further into the back of the room, I saw Jofre and Elize crouched against a corner of the wall .


“Jofre, Elize, what are you guys doing?”


“Garrison, we found something amazing . ”


Jofre replied .


Something amazing?


Perhaps it’s treasure!? If that’s the case, I can bring it back and give it to Katyusha-chan as a present .


“I don’t see anything . ”


There wasn’t anything there .


I mixed in a sigh and leaned against the wall .


Then – – a protrusion on the wall was sucked into the wall .


It seemed to be some kind of switch . But it was already too late by the time I realized that .


“Ah, Garrison . The switch there opens a pitfall if you press it so be careful . ”


Elize’s warning was a second too late .


The floor below my feet opened with a snap and the three of us fell together into the abyss .
