After dozens of seconds of feeling like levitating, that feeling of floating suddenly ended, and the hard ground peculiar to a dungeon appeared before us. Yes, we're thrown there.
"Hop"
I immediately adjusted my position in the air and landed. When I look at the surroundings, the other adventurers were also able to land safely. However, those who don't have status had fallen on their stomachs and backs. Still, since they didn't seem to be injured, I am relieved.
When I was thinking about that, Rei came to my side.
"Rin, is this, perchance…"
"Aa, this is without a doubt a dungeon outbreak"
"But it's strange. There is no way a dungeon could emerge on the ex-site of another dungeon. Even if there is, it should be at least a year after the collapse of the said dungeon."
It was exactly as Rei said. Moreover, that's not the only strange point. As the research about dungeons progressed year by year, even if we couldn't prevent the outbreak of the dungeon itself, it became possible to make it happen in a place with few people and buildings. For that reason, in the last few years, there have been no incidents about people getting involved in a dungeon outbreak.
Despite that, now, we're involved in a dungeon outbreak. This continuously irregular situation gives me a headache.
"Although I don't know why we're involved in this, as we're inside a dungeon, monsters will be attacking us at any time. Thus, you should change into your equipment."
"Understood"
Hearing my words, Rei nodded. We, who had been hanging out until a while ago, are now wearing everyday clothes as a matter of course. But, as long as we have our equipment stored in [Item Box], we could change into it in an instant, so we are going to make use of that function.
I usually use it when I go in and out of the dungeon but… I never thought that I would have to use it after entering a dungeon like this.
While we're changing our equipment, Yagami-san and his party have already changed into their equipment. Then, I turned my gaze to Yui and Hana who were nearby.
"Do you have Item Box, Yui?"
"Yes, I acquired it a while ago!"
"Then, I'm relieved for the time being. But, if I remember it well, I think Hana hasn't acquired it yet…."
"If it's a coat that I used to use, Hana should be able to use it too. I will lend it."
"Thank you very much, Rei-senpai!"
Right after that, the body of the three of us, excluding Hana were enveloped in a faint light. As a result, now, I was wearing a black coat with a red line. Rei was wearing a white combat uniform with a blue line, while Yui was wearing a white and pink robe. By the way, Hana also wore the coat she received from Rei.
Now, we've finished doing something that we should have done at the very least. And regarding how we should move from here, I would like to discuss it with Yagami-san. So, with that in mind, I headed toward Yagami-san who was a little away from me. But, at the next moment.
"Rin-senpai, look out!"
Yui's scream echoed in the area. Promptly after that, something black jumped up from the shadow of my feet, and a sharp jet-black knife flew straight to my throat but–
"You are in the way."
I swung Greed with my left hand and cut it in half in a flash. With just that, the mysterious monster was killed. And from what I felt when I cut it, I think it was around level 20,000, which showed that this dungeon was at least A-rank or higher.
"Eh? Eh? Just now, what on earth…"
Looking at that scene, Yui displayed an expression that said she didn't know what just happened in front of her. Well, it is something that couldn’t be helped as Yui didn't know about my true abilities. But now, I don't have time to explain.
"Hana, Rei. Help Yui for the time being"
"Un!"
