Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Chapter 2367: Can’t help it (2)

"Don’t swing high, swing low. It can’t reach down low that easily, so it’ll be forced into a defensive position."

"Don’t take the hits straight on, be sure to deflect them. There’s no need to use pure strength to block these, it’s a waste of energy."

"You’re just being a target by standing there. Keep moving while you’re chanting so that you’re not just making yourself easier to hit."

I was secretly giving advice to the three of them while watching them fight the minotaur.

Since they weren’t that experienced at fighting such a large opponent, they were being pushed back by the minotaur at first. But I could see that their foundations were good, which was why it wasn’t as if they should be struggling.

It was just that they didn’t have enough experience for this fight.

I was making up for this by giving them pointers, but really these pointers weren’t from my experience either. These were pointers that I had picked up from the practices of the royal guards that I had watched.

At first it didn’t seem like they wanted to take this advice, but soon they started listening to me.

Especially since they could see what the effects of the advice that I gave them were.

If it was good, then they really didn’t have a reason not to follow it.

With this, the minotaur was slowly being pushed back by these kids.

Once again, I had to admit that they had good foundations.

I wasn’t actually surprised that this was the case since they were wearing this expensive equipment to begin with. If they were able to get this expensive equipment and come all the way here, they must have had some kind of training before.

It didn’t take long for the minotaur to finally fall under the weapons of these three.

"We did it!"

That was the first reaction that they had when they saw the minotaur explode into loot.

For a moment, the three of them had even forgotten that they were in a dungeon as they celebrated their victory.

Seeing them like this, I couldn’t help shaking my head with a faint smile.

They were certainly still kids, they hadn’t lost the innocence that adults had ground down from the stress of adult life. They could still take pride and joy in small matters like this.

Once they finished celebrating, they turned to me and the swordsman who was their leader asked, "How did you know all of that?"

It didn’t seem like they cared at all that I had been giving orders to them the entire time.

I could hear and see the sincerity that they had when they talked to me like this, but it wasn’t as if they would have been able to do anything if they had bad intentions. After all, everything that they did was already being watched by me.

"They really are innocent kids that haven’t been worn down by this world yet." I couldn’t help thinking to myself with a secret bitter laugh.

I didn’t bother answering their question in the end as I simply said, "You should leave this place, it doesn’t seem like you’re suited for dungeon diving at all."

The three kids didn’t seem happy when they heard this, but they didn’t lose their temper with me. Instead, it just seemed like they were planning something with how they looked at each other.

They looked like they were sharing ideas through glances alone.

Since that was the case, I didn’t bother listening to anything else that they said and turned to leave.

In this case, it was better not to give them a chance to do anything.

But before I could leave, the three of them suddenly ran forward to stand in front of me.

When they did this, I narrowed my eyes to look at them with a cold gaze.

However, I didn’t get a chance to say anything as the leading swordsman suddenly bowed. He was soon followed by the knight and the magician who also bowed their heads to me.

I was so caught off guard by this that the cold gaze disappeared from my eyes.

After bowing like this, the swordsman said, "Please take us as your disciples. We want to learn about dungeon diving from you!"

The other two didn’t say anything, but their stances showed that they had the same intentions as the swordsman.

From the way that they spoke, I knew that they were serious about this. At the same time, I could see the clear sincerity that they had, showing that they didn’t have any ill intentions.

It was just that I couldn’t understand what was going on in their minds for them to suddenly propose something like this.

It wasn’t as if I couldn’t leave since it would have been easy for me to leave these kids here alone. At the same time, it wasn’t as if I wanted to accept any disciples since I wanted to hunt the bosses solo.

But seeing them like this, I really didn’t know what to say.

In the end, I thought to myself with a secret sigh, "Since I’ve already helped them, I might as well help them until the end. I have the time, it’s not as if I’m really in a rush to finish this since there’s no telling when the forces of Destruction will appear again."

The part that moved me in the end was that I could sense something strange coming from them.

I didn’t know how to describe it, but it did feel somewhat familiar.

"What are your names?"

The three of them were surprised to hear this question, but they quickly introduced themselves to me.

After they did, I said with a sigh, "I’ll only stay with you for a bit before heading off on my own business. You’re free to learn whatever you want from observation during that time, I won’t actually teach you anything. If you can accept that, then you can follow me."

The eyes of these three lit up when they heard this.

There was no need to hear their answer to know what they were thinking.
