[Finally! I don't have to watch those two flirting] Hajime thought as he remembered how Yue biting brandons neck turned into a sexual act when she started to rub herself against brandons crotch they were definitely only one step away from making out
He didn't want to admit it but he was getting uncomfortable. They should be thinking about how to reach the mavericks lair rather than messing around... Still he decided to ignore them
The current location of the floor was quite odd as they found themselves in a forest
Being used to the darkness and odd looking abyssal monsters the sudden change of scenery took them off guard
"Grrrrrrrra" a dinosaur looking monster growled at the group of three in an attempt to intimidate them... and it had a flower on it's nose for some reason
'roooaaaar" it roared at them frustrated that it's intimidation didn't work in the slightest
"Finding a forest halfway through the dungeon was already weird now a dinosaur to" Hajime commented staring blankly at the monster
"And why does it have a flower on it's head"Hajime questioned once again while Brandon was trying to sense the direction of the cave that held the mastermind behind it
"It's being controlled by the flower on it's head" Brandon finally decided to comment afterwards Hajime could be seen keeping his guard up
~Crimson javelin~
Yue fired a spear shaped flame penetrating right through the monsters head causing it to fall limply on the ground
Yue was currently standing on her own two feet as opposed to before when she was struggling.. drinking all that blood has caused her to recover faster than she normally would have
As Brandon was similar to a unlimited blood supply no matter how much she drank he wouldn't ever run out so she simply drank until she couldn't any more
"Well am I being useful?" Yue asked with a smile on her face her eyes burning with a new found enthusiasm at being able to contribute to the group and not to be considered dead weight
"Haah so useful that I am starting to feel like death weight" Hajime said it was unknown if he was being sarcastic or if that were his genuine thoughts
Yue decided to take his words as such but she wanted to know brandons opinion more as she looked at him intensely
"I think you are the greatest magic user I have met so far" Brandon gave his honest opinion while smiling slightly
Yue could be seen beaming at his comment with a red hue staining her cheeks
"its great that your eager to help and all... But don't you think you are overdoing it a little" Hajime tacitly shared his thoughts
" I've gotta help we're partners I can't stay at the back while you two deal with all the monsters" Yue said while stealing glances at Brandon as she spoke 00
"Well it's okay Yue you've been a great help but it's better if you conserve your energy for a greater enemy" brandon said while patting her head at the same time thinking about the final boss who was only a few floors away
"Hmm... Okay" Yue said with a blush on her face clearly enjoying the head pats she was receiving while hajime on the other hand was rubbing his head as he was acting soft towards thier new companion
[Haah seriously what wrong with me my current actions would've made the me a few days back laugh ] Hajime thought to himself before narrowing his eyes clearly sensing something
"Ten monsters incoming, let's make a preemptive attack" said Brandon as hajime and Yue nodded thier heads
As they rushed Brandon noted that they were being surrounded
Hiding in the forest Hajime shoot at the flower on its head
Dropping down the monster lay there still
"I thought it was cute" Yue said as she looked at the unmoving monster
But Brandon had his hand as the hilt of his sword waiting for the monster to stand up
"Roooaaar" the monster suddenly stood up stepping on the flower that once imbedded itself into it's head
"It's angry at whoever was controlling it, that's why it stepped on the flower it's best if we head to the source of it all"Brandon commented as he started running towards the cave where he sensed the monster
Arriving at the cave Brandon instructed hajime to use transmute to seal the cave
Walking deeper Brandon pulled Yue close to him remembering how she was controlled by the spores during canon
As they walked deeper they arrived at a large room inside the cave as green spores started spreading around the cave covering Yue in aura to prevent it from affecting her
Brandon started Acting as if controlled to lue the monster out Brandon stood still as a flower grew on his head
A green humanoid-shaped monster slithered towards Brandon and just as it was about to crab his chin
~shhiinng~
Green blood spurted as the monsters head rolled on the ground
"Now let's take a rest, Yue you can drink my blood in the meantime because we'll be heading to the final floor after this"
Yue nodded shyly as they moved to a cave preparing for the final floor
_____________________________
Brandon,Yue and hajime walked down dimly lit staircase being met with large double doors
"My senses aren't picking anything up... But my instincts are screaming that going further would be dangerous" hajime said looking at the double doors
"Finally.. feels like forever since we feel in here"brandon said feeling relieved that all this would be over
He hadn't slept once since their fall and even though he didn't need it due to his regeneration he was feeling exhausted mentally
"Brandon.." yue said softly, her voice showing a hint of understanding seeing as finishing the final floor they might find a way to leave the labyrinth
"Whatever is down there we've just going to have to plow through it" Hajime said with a grin
Walking towards the door the trio is met by a large summoning circle lighting up in the Middle of the room similar to the behemoth but way larger
A massive 6 headed hydra started appearing from the magic circle
"You've got to be shiting me first dinosaurs now straight up myths" Hajime said observing as the hydra was fully summoned
"Well lets just get over with this already"said Brandon looking chilled almost nonchalant
"Attack the white head" Brandon said placing his hand on the hilt off his sword
Deciding on niot questioning Brandon as almost everything he does had purpose Hajime pulled out donner shooting at the white head
~crimson javelin~
Yue also fired her spell at the same time
Just as the attacks was about to hit the yellow head opened up similar to a rattlesnake covering the white head while sustaining the damage ij it's sted
Just as Yue and hajime were about to continue their attack
The white head started glowing in a white light healing the yellow head
[So that's why he said we should aim for the white head it's the parties healer] Hajime thought as he looked over at Brandon
Who just stood there with his hand on his hilt seemingly waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike taking the hydra down in one shot
"Yue cover me" Hajime shouted as he ran forewards while shooting donner at the monster
Yue continued unleashing spells aimed at the white head
While shooting spells at it a black headed hydra appeared out of nowhere staring Yue straight in her eyes
"Ahhh ahhhhhh no" Yue shouted seeming to have fallen into a illusion as her eyes dimmed while she stared straight
"Shit" Brandon was forced out of his preparation hearing Yue's scream
Brandon couldn't remember anything like this happening while reading the novel as he just cruised through while reading skipping some parts
Yue In a illusion saw Brandon turning around to leave with Hajime leaving her alone in the darkness of her prison. She believed that everything that happened was just a part of her imagination
"Nooooooo"
yue screamed out in anguish at the thought that everything that happened between her and Brandon was nothing but her imagination
"Hajime cover our backs I'll go check in Yue" Brandon said to Hajime while running to Yue
"Make it quick I don't think I could hold on to that bastard for long" Hajime said while continuing to shoot bullets at it
Arriving in front of Yue Brandon scooped her up princess style while running and hiding behind on of the pillars present in the room
"Yue!" "Yue!!" Brandon shouted at her while shaking her continuously
"B-brandon" Yue stuttered coming out of the illusion as years dropped down her cheeks
"I-i thought y-you left" Yue said weakly between her cries realizing that she was just In a illusion
"Why would I abandon the woman I love" Brandon said looking straight into Yue eyes
Stunned by the sudden confesion yue looked at Brandon with wide eyes but before she could respond he gently grabbed her by the back of her neck
Pulling her into a deep kiss Yue felt her cheeks along with her heart getting warm knowing that her feelings were mutal
"Hey you two love birds mind lending a hand" Hajime shouted having seen the two kiss while he had to fight against the hydra on his own
"Buy me some time" hajime shouted as he jumped backwards
Yue continued firing magic spells at the beast while Brandon sent flying sword aura's towards the monster while engaging in some close combat
Pulling out schlagen attempting a full powered shot to take the hydra out in one shot
The black head came in front off Yue once again attempting to take her out
Touching her lips yue remembered the kiss she shared with Brandon bringing her back to reality
"Not this time" Yue shouted as she sent an attack at the black head causing it to scream in agony but once again getting healed by the white head
Creating a Air platform hajime placed schlagen on it while shouting
"I'll take em all out !!" Hajime shouted firing at full power
~heavenly blaze~
Yue attacked disintegrating
two heads while hajime destroyed the rest
Falling on their knees the two started to celebrate while Brandon took a lai-sword stance
As the two were about to question his they saw the hydra coming out of the smoke unscathed only with a single head this time
~heaveny breeze~
Brandon could be seen standing behind the hydra as a small wind could be heard blowing in the silent room
Red lines started appearing all over the hydra and before anyone could react blood spurted out as the hydra fell into small cube pieces of meat
Landing on one knee Brandon took heavy breaths
Feeling a light shine on his head he looked up to see a door open
Turning around he smiled at his friend and lovers direction
As they finally cleared the labyrinth
