BXBX NOVEL Chapter 6 Underground Tomb Exploration 2
Kuro Kurori ssu~
It’s Party Time! ｷﾀ━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━! Kaoru, Mitsuha, Saachi, Angelica, Astrid
Rena‘s side A!
I went on for a while and found a treasure chest, but strangely I did not encounter any monster. From what I could remember, the maximum number of people in a party is six, including followers and summoning beasts. That is why, I would like to tame four more monsters, hence it’s a problem if I can’t see them at all…
Yamada: 『－－－－! ーーーー!』
Rena: 「? What’s wrong, Yamada-san?」
Yamada-san was acting strangely for some reason, and when I thought about what was going onーーー
Rena: 「－－－I see! So that’s the cause!」
I was attacked all of a sudden from the shadow of my feet. Isn’t that dangerous?! Though, even if I’m angry, let’s check my enemy for the time being.
Race: 『Shadow』 | Level: 『7』
Condition: 『Normal』
Okay then, let’s be satisfied with this for now as it’s the second monster that I’m looking for.
If I remember correctly, Yamada-san has a night-vision skill, so he probably noticed it first.
Rena: 「Now then, because it’s a troublesome enemy that hides in the dark, I will rely on you, Yamada-san.」
Yamada: 『－－－－!』
The hilt shakes as wanting to acknowledge what I had asked and moved closer to it. Rather than going against it, he threw some thrusts towards the shadow with all his might.
Shadow: 『Uuuu!』
Bingo. I then brought the torch around to isolate it with the other shadows and lock it in.
Rena: 「Well then, it’s better if you give up early, yes?」
As I slowly approached the shadow, I beat it up with a torch. Even this thing can also be beaten up, I see.
When it finally stopped moving, I activated 《Tame》…… and it’s a success. This is easier than Yamada-san.
Rena: 「Now, let’s check its status.」
Name: 『Undecided』
Race: 『Shadow』 | Level: 『7』
Condition: 『Normal』

『Rena’s Follower』 – A monster that successfully became Rena’s follower – 〚Increases buff effects received from the master《Small》〛
Rena: 「……For the time being, your name will be Kageyama-san」
(TL Note: Kageyama means Shadow Mountain, it’s an old generic name in Japan)
Kageyama: 『Uuuu?!』
Rena: 「Kageyama-san, please quickly dive into my shadow」
Kageyama: 『Uuuu…』
He dived into my shadow but it felt like he was really reluctant about it. Let’s make him attack and support me with magic while I’m fighting in close range.
Name: 『Kageyama-san』
Race: 『Shadow』 | Level: 『7』
Condition: 『Possessing』
Oh? It’s also regarded as 『Possessing』 to be in my shadow, I see?…… Apparently, it seems that the player’s HP and other stats are not shared. However, he cannot be caught by skills such as presence detection. I won’t know for sure if it’s a high level detection skill, though….
In any case, for the time being, it’s okay to say that it’s still going well as I have already explored this deep and tamed two monsters that I had been looking for. Let’s continue forward with this pace!
Rena: 「Okay then, let’s resume our journey, Yamada-san, Kageyama-san」
Yamada & Kageyama: 『『……』』
They barely responded to me, I see…… Well that’s fine, let’s go ahead anyway.
