Cheers!

Nothing like a celebratory drink after a win!

I can't believe you're old enough to drink.

We've just got to settle for juice, huh?

Yeah.

Arel, marry me!

No, thanks.

Aww, don't be shy!

I'm not being shy.

Oh, come on!

I'm an older woman ready to satisfy all your youthful desires.

I'd prefer to get married with someone more like Reiner.

Argh!

Y-y-you jerk!

At least come up with a better lie than that to turn her down!

Why do you think I'm lying?

B-because people have always said I'm like a man

because all I do is swing swords around.

Yeah. I made the same mistake.

Right?

I have no womanly charms about me.

I don't agree with that.

In any case, I'm aiming to become the strongest Swordsman.

I don't have time to worry about being feminine!

She doesn't even know how to use the biggest weapon in her arsenal!

She's no threat to me!

Arel, you must be tired.

I'll help you relax back in your room with a nice rub down...

That's indecent!

Huh? I'm only talking about a massage.

Great. I'd like to get one from Reiner.

You're joking!

Hero Without a Class: Who Even Needs Skills?!

Underground Dungeon

Jeez.

This is less of a massage and more like torture, isn't it?

Being physically pushed to the brink of death

is the only way for me to master the Guts skill.

I can't pull it off without the help of a friend who's both capable and trustworthy.

I'm flattered you find me trustworthy, but...

She's too much of a meathead!

Good grief. Keep it down, wouldja?

Dad!

What's all the ruckus for?

Are you training out of frustration because you got thrashed this afternoon?

No way! We won our match against Black Blade!

Oh?

They must've sent their newbies against you.

Nope! All our opponents were A-rank!

That can't be right...

Uh... Well, Arel beat them all himself, though.

Is this kid really that strong?

And we made plenty of money to cover our operating costs thanks to the bets I made!

Our guild is back on the up and up with Arel here!

You're way too optimistic about this.

Someone that strong will get poached by a better guild in no time,

then we're screwed again.

No need to worry about that!

Because Arel and I are going to get married.

I made no such promise.

Aww. You're supposed to play along!

Just give up already.

This is utterly pointless. All of it!

Lilia may be an idiot,

but she's far better than losers who just give up and do nothing.

What?

When are you going to stop moping around and act your age?

You can still wield a sword with one arm, can't you?

What the hell do you know?!

A Dual Swordsman who can't wield two swords

is left with nothing but a bunch of unusable skills!

You're right, I don't know.

After all, I'm classless and don't have a single skill of my own.

He's incredibly strong despite whatever skills he's lost.

It's such a waste.

Thank you.

I think your words may have gotten through to him a bit.

And hopefully that encourages him to do something.

Rod is an amazing person.

He just needs to rediscover his passion, and he'll get back in action.

Yeah. I want him to show me some skills.

I'm sure I can learn a lot from a Dual Swordsman even if he's not in peak form.

Well, since there are so many skills you want to learn,

how about trying out a dungeon?

What's that?

Huh, you don't know about those?

There's an enormous dungeon underneath this city.

It's a place chock-full o' traps!

Whoa!

And swarming with monsters!

I'd love to go!

Me too.

I need to get actual battle experience in preparation for the Sword God Cup!

The Sword God Cup?

You really don't know anything, do you?

Like the name implies, it's a tournament that determines the most supreme Swordsman.

The biggest battle in the City of Swords.

I'm assuming you want to participate, right?

Then just sign your name on this entry sheet.

Whaaaa?!

Uh, didn't you want to participate?

That was a marriage certificate.

Oh...

Just a little joke... Tee hee!

No more! You're gonna crack my skull!

I'm sorry!

Do you know where they're headed?

Yes.

It seems they're going to the dungeon tomorrow.

How convenient.

They'll have nobody to blame but themselves

if they encounter a little "accident" in the dungeon.

All ready to charm him!

Once Arel sees me like this,

he won't be able to stop himself from getting all sorts of touchy-feely!

Here we go. Time for the wake-up kiss!

What are you doing?

I don't mind getting down and dirty first thing in the morning.

Come on, hubby.

Gaaah! Leggo leggo!

You're squashing my face! This is too much!

How could you do something so mean to a beautiful maiden like me?!

More like sexual predator.

Rude!

Come on, how is this not working on a young and eager guy like you?

A hot babe is practically throwing herself at your feet, dammit!

Eh? What?

What are you doing, Arel?!

Getting kinky?

So, THIS is what you're into?!

Reiner, do you have a minute?

Yeah, what is it?

Can you come collect the wild beast that's in my room right now?

Reiner? Are you still asleep?

Whatcha want, Papa?

Papa?

Guess what?

I'm finally a Power Bladesman, just like you.

Tell me I did good!

I love you, Papa!

She acts like a little baby around her dad, huh?

Guess Reiner is a daddy's girl.

Arel!

Come back here, please!

Help me!

Shut up!

Uh... Why the hell are you dressed like that?!

Waaah! Dad, you pervert!

Don't look at me!

Y-you stupid girl!

Ah! That's the underground dungeon!

I thought it would be more like a cave.

At any rate, there are tons of people here.

That's because the Sword God Cup is getting close.

They have the same goal as we do.

Thanks to that teleportation seal,

people are free to travel to any floor they want.

Wow, that's convenient.

However!

They can only go to levels they've already been to!

Like, I can go down to the 12th level.

I can go to the 14th.

Then if I go with Reiner, can I also start on the 14th level?

No can do!

This magic will only let you go where you yourself have physically been before.

That's a shame.

I'd really like to fight something strong right away.

It's okay!

I'll guide you along the shortest route!

We'll go straight to the lower levels!

Thanks.

Which means, Reiner...

I'll be with Arel, so you can go off on your own.

Huh? But I'm going wi-

There's no need for two guides.

Unless you have a problem with me being his guide?

No, no problems here...

Well! Let's head out, Arel!

We can find a nice private spot to pick up where we left off this morning...

I want Reiner to come with us.

Okay! Sure!

Those are Living Armor monsters.

Already offering us a challenge, huh?

It's fast despite all that heavy armor.

But...

None of these skills are out of the ordinary.

It's still moving even though I cut its head off?!

They're empty suits of armor that move with the magic power of the dungeon.

They can't feel pain nor have any weakness!

In that case, the best way to stop them...

aim for the legs!

That's creepy.

Are you done too?

Oh, they stopped moving.

They'll start regenerating eventually.

And attack us again after they recover.

So, we can fight them over and over?

Perfect for sword training.

Ahh... that was a tough fight, huh!

Lilia, you didn't do anything.

Gulp!

Only because you two were so quick! I wasn't trying to sit it out!

Speaking of, what's your class, Lilia?

I'm a Fencer!

If there's any skill you want to learn,

I'll teach you everything down the most minute detail!

If I remember right, the advanced class beyond Fencer is...

Your mother's class, the Sword Princess.

Then Lilia is useless to me, huh.

That's not nice!

Oh! I just came up with something I can teach you!

Yes...

It's called: "Having compassion"!

Let's go.

Yeah.

S-someone, help me!

Are you okay?! What happened?!

I entered a new room for the first time and got hit by a really bad trap!

Happens all the time in the dungeon.

A trap, huh?

The exit is nearby. Let's bring him there.

No, my friends are still in that room!

I beg you, help me rescue them!

Your friends, huh? We're on it!

Reiner, you can't! Think for a second!

F-fair point.

Given all the blood on him, his Divine Protection has totally run out.

You stay here and let us save your frien-

Wrong!

First, we negotiate!

We don't do any work without adequate compensation!

Kinda harsh, don't you think?!

And this coming from someone who said they would teach me compassion...

It's every man for himself in the dungeon!

Gotta pay the price if you're asking for help!

W-what?

Now that I take a good look, you're the famous Lilia, right?

I see you in magazines all the time!

Yes! I've been in a few before!

Like the special edition on "beautiful Swordsmen"!

Gosh, I guess I'm starting to hit the big time!

What a thrill!

Yeah, I remember!

The article about the "ditzy doll" from the "disgraced guild" was a riot!

Okay, forget this guy. We'll just keep going!

W-wait!

Here's the money I won gambling last week!

That's all I have on me!

We have a deal!

R-right... glad to hear it.

Lilia, isn't this sketchy?

Huh? He gave me actual money, though.

Not the money, but the man himself.

There's too much blood on him.

People bleed when their Divine Protection runs out.

Not everyone's as sturdy as you are, Arel.

That wasn't... a compliment, was it?

Now then, we've got our money, so let's do our best!

We're gonna feast tonight!

Okay, come with me!

Right!

When I lost that amount of blood,

I couldn't stand much less walk without holy water.

His injuries are fake.

I don't know what he's planning, but this looks like it'll be fun.

This is the entrance to the hidden room.

Whoa!

I don't see any sign of your friends.

Oh no! How is that possible?!

I'm not sensing any danger.

Are we too late?

No! Look at that pool of blood!

That's a gold coin, isn't it?!

We won't be leaving empty handed!

I found it! So, it's mine!

Wh-what's happening?!

Not good.

It's a teleport trap!

You're just as greedy as the rumors say.

Sorry, but this is part of my job.

What?! Did you trick us?!

You gotta be kidding!

Nobody told me the trap would teleport everything in the room!

There's no exit.

I've never seen a room like this.

That means we might be even lower than the 14th floor.

But no sign of any strong enemies, huh?

Why... Why...

Why'd it get me too?

Dammit! This is bullshit!

Now, explain yourself!

Ah, my gold coin!

What's that?

I was ordered to lead you all to a certain spot.

So, you would trigger a teleport trap that can't be escaped from.

It sends you to the lowest floor...

A place where advanced level Sword Gods lie in wait!

Sword God?! I thought that class was just a myth!

Get down!

Wh-what just happened?

What the heck was that skill?

Divine Air Slice, a Sword God skill that produces slashing attacks.

It can attack like that from so far away?!

That's just ridiculous!

Arel!

Arel!

Acquiring Guts was worth it.

That hardly used up any of my Divine Protection.

The superior version of Blink Dash, Divine Step...

No doubt this is a super advanced class Sword God.

Well, I guess this is the perfect chance to test myself.

What?

"Test" yourself?

He's so fast...!

Did Arel use Divine Step too?!

My body feels heavy!

What's going on? All my energy's gone.

It's superb that you're able to keep your stance!

Feels like I could drop to my knees at any moment now, though...

Okay, once you've frozen your opponent with the Divine Presence skill,

you should hit them with this next one: the Infinite Break.

Hold on. You mean that high speed chopping attack?

Right.

Wait a second!

It's taking everything I have just to stay standing, so I can't block it!

I'll go easy on you.

But you're really bad at adjusting the strength of your attacks, Mom!

I'll do it right this time... maybe!

I've gotta give thanks to my mom.

No, not my gold coin!

Didn't think I could move, did you?

That was a mistake.

Infinite Break!

As expected from my hubby!

I'm not your hubby.

Wh-who is this guy?

I can't believe it...

I have to ask, how do you know that Sword God skill, Arel?

I've lived in this city my whole life and I've never even seen a Sword God!

Oh, that's easy.

It's because my mother is a Sword God.

Huh?

Y-you're joking, right?

Then why was she pretending to be a Sword Princess back in the village?!

She doesn't like the attention.

That's her reason?

Had I known you were the son of a Sword God,

I probably wouldn't have challenged you.

Then keeping it a secret was the right move.

Our bout was something I needed to happen.

Wh...Wha....

Well, more importantly, let's find the way outta this place!

A new powerful enemy?

No, that's a teleportation spell.

Can we use it to leave?

C'mon, you too, baldy.

Are you sure? I thought I'd get left behind or beat up as punishment.

Arel seemed happy that he could fight a strong opponent.

That's why I'm gonna let this one pass.

All I need is one arm?

Easy for that punk to say.

Talk about a cushy job!

We got paid all this money just to catch those idiots in a teleportation trap!

Too bad about Deel, though.

Yeah, crazy how he got caught in it, too.

You guys are so mean!

I know you didn't tell him about it on purpose!

Like you weren't part of it. All just to get a bigger share.

Heh. But man, it's crazy to think

this is how the once famous Dragon Fang guild meets its end!

How pathetic!

Huh?

Interesting story. I'm going to need you to tell me more.

Hell no, you geezer.

Wait, this guy is...

the former guild boss of Dragon Fang!

What did you lowlives do to my daughter?!

Rod.

Georg, you bastard! Mind your own business!

My goodness, you're just as boisterous as you've always been.

Hold on. Did you do this?!

Do what?

I only came here to give you some

exciting news out of the kindness of my heart.

It seems my guild members saw your daughter and her friends

enter a dangerous hidden room in the dungeon.

You bastard, it wasn't enough for you to take one of my arms?!

Now you take my daughter?!

No...

Lilia... Lilia...!

Oh, please! This absolutely calls for drinks!

The food here is excellent.

I can't wait to try it.

Lilia?

Oh, Dad... and Georg?

I'm so glad! You're alive!

Whoa, Dad?!

Impossible!

Thanks to you we almost died.

But we managed to defeat the Sword God and make it back safely.

Don't you lie!

You lot aren't strong enough to defeat Sword Gods!

Well, it was strong, for sure.

Was it you?!

By the way, the guy that lured us into the trap fessed up to everything.

He said you were the mastermind behind it.

Oh... However, that all happened in the dungeon, didn't it?

The rules say you're responsible for your own safety in there.

I see. That's a valid point.

Hey! Don't shoot us in the back!

Listen here, you won't get away with this.

What exactly can you do, you drunkard?

Those damn brats!

They should have died!

The Sword Princess vanished, and I crushed the Dual Sword King!

The crown of the strongest was finally upon my brow!

And now, I have to compete with some classless nobody

who can defeat super classes?!

That stupid guild is going to steal my title once again!

For so, so very long I've patiently

lived within the shadow of those goddamn prodigies!

What's that?

What a truly sinister and powerful grudge.

I shall grant your wish.

Wh-who are you?!
