Chapter 37 - Nibelungenlied, modified versión

Early the next morning

Link, who had a sore waist, carried Olga, who was full of energy, into the dungeon.

If it weren't for the strengthening of his body after becoming an adventurer, he truly wouldn't have been able to endure last night.

There were no plowed fields, only cows that had died from exhaustion.

The wisdom of the ancients was certainly correct.

"Well..."

When he arrived at the dungeon, it was still the same as before.

Link first found a deserted spot, and after clearing out the nearby monsters, he began to summon Asagi, whom he had drawn the night before.

After rubbing his sore waist, Link clicked OK on the system.

Not long after, a sexy woman wearing a tight purple leather jacket and carrying a samurai sword on her back appeared before Link and Olga.

When Olga first noticed Asagi, there was a hint of hostility in her eyes.

It was needless to say that the woman before her had an attractive figure.

Beneath the outline of the tight leather jacket, her curvy shape was even more accentuated. Her face was as charming as a fox's, and her white skin looked quite soft.

This was the first time Olga had met a woman who was comparable to her in height and even slightly surpassed her in some areas.

Naturally, there was a sense of crisis.

Originally, there was only one Hestia in the family. Although she also had large breasts, her main body was a loli and was incomparable to the physique of a milf.

But now, a competitor had arrived!

"My lord, Agawa Isagi, a ninja, is at your service!"

As Olga's thoughts raced, Asagi bowed slightly to Link in front of her and saluted.

"Welcome, Asagi. From now on, just like Olga, feel free to call me Link."

"Yes, Lord Link."

Link felt a bit helpless.

Both of them called him exactly the same and always liked to have "Lord" following his name.

Was this a common issue among characters drawn by the system?

"Forget it; you can call me whatever you want. By the way, since the weapon you use is a samurai sword, I'll give you this weapon. It should be better than the katana you are currently using."

"Thank you, Lord Link!" Asagi accepted the weapon, and upon seeing it for the first time after removing the scabbard, she immediately knew it was a top-tier weapon.

A person who knows how to use a blade can assess the quality of a weapon at a glance.

"What an excellent sword! Thank you so much for your kindness! Lord Link!"

"You're welcome; we'll be family from now on."

Asagi, like Olga, initially wielded very ordinary weapons.

As for Link, he mainly used spears, so he made a trade with Asagi and stored the ordinary katana in the system space as a spare.

"Lord Link, what kind of work should I do in the future?" 

After trying the weapon in her hand for a while and getting used to the feel, Asagi sheathed her sword and looked at Link beside her. 

"Asagi, your main task is to protect Olga and be responsible for the safety of the back row. Olga is a mage and does not have the ability to protect herself, so her safety will require you to pay more attention in the future." 

Link thought for a moment, then said, "But in the next few days, our main task is to improve the levels of both of you and strive to raise your levels to LV.2 in the next month." 

"Yes, I understand, Lord Link!" 

Olga and Asagi replied in unison. 

Seeing Asagi eager to give it a try, Olga naturally did not lag behind. Asagi seemed to sense the slightly hostile and provocative gaze of Olga beside her and returned a disdainful glance. 

After their gazes met, sparks instantly erupted. 

Link was naturally aware of the secret competition between the two, but healthy competition would help everyone grow faster. 

Although the strength of the two was currently synchronized with Link due to the system, the Favor level would not jump to LV.2 all at once. It still needed to be built up little by little; otherwise, it would be too shocking. 

It was also to avoid arousing too much suspicion from others, to use weaker monsters to form teams, and to consider various factors, so Link planned to let both of them reach level 2 before entering deeper floors. 

So, Link took the two girls and began an adventure above the 15th floor. 

... 

At night, when Link returned home, he wrote a novel in the study. 

Olga was cooking, and Hestia was in the bedroom, giving falna to the newly joined Igawa Asagi. 

Not long after, the door opened, and Hestia walked in, holding the personal information carved on Asagi's back. 

"Let me tell you, Link, although I'm very happy to have new members join the party, but... why is she a beautiful woman? Also, this skill...!" 

"What happened to the skill score?" 

"See for yourself." 

Hestia handed him the paper; Link put down his pen and looked at Asagi's personal information. 

[Name: Igawa Asagi] 

[Race: Human] 

[Level: Lv.1] 

[Power: I0] 

[Durability: I0] 

[Agility: I0] 

[Dexterity: I0]

[Super Speed]

... 

The numerical values are nothing to look at. It mainly depends on skills and abilities. Obviously, Asagi is more than useful compared to Olga. 

"It's very good," Link said, raising his hand and trembling slightly, a flash of light erupting from his fingers and burning the paper in his hand to ashes. 

Hestia sighed and didn't ask any questions. She walked to Link's side with her hands on her hips and looked at what he was writing. 

"Hmm... Siegfried the Dragon Slayer?" 

Hestia took the manuscript from Link and read it. 

"Link, is this the story you wrote during this time?" 

"Well, I've already written something. Hestia, you can take it and read it first." 

Link organized the stack of manuscripts on the other side and handed them to her. 

Link knew that Hestia liked to read, but she should never have read novels like this, right? 

What Link wrote was a novel adapted from the original work "Nibelungenlied" from a previous life, incorporating his own ideas: 

the story of a heroic dragon hunter.
