Chapter 296: Safe Rescue
Tauro joined up with the escort team, and with the skills of the escort team, which had regained their original strength after the disabling of their skills by the “Skill Killer” due to the sensory paralysis of the “Storm,” quickly found and joined up with the search team, and after treating their sensory paralysis again, they were able to start searching again. They were able to find the missing team.
“The team is saved, ……. But you were fast. I thought it would take almost two more months to be rescued. …… Either way, we are saved. Thank you!”
Salaman, captain of the missing team and branch manager of the Adventurers’ Guild Dragon People’s Village Branch, shook hands with Tsugumi, captain of the escort team, on behalf of the team.
Apparently, Salaman had been in the dungeon for so long that he was unaware of Tauro’s existence and thought that they had come to rescue them by steadily diving through the dungeon rather than by “spatial transfer”.
“Yeah? It's strange to see a human child, isn't it? I mean, why would you have a human child in a place like this? You don’t mean to say that the child was the target of the rescue and our rescue was a coincidence, do you? That’s lucky for us! Ha-ha-ha!”
Salaman, who had noticed Tauro’s presence, began to be convinced by his own interpretation.
“ Salaman-san, he is the one who has saved your life. Thanks to Tauro-dono, we were able to find you quickly. And have you not heard? The story of the human who found the cure for the disease that spread through the village?”
“Hm? Drago’s sister, Ragune, is the one who brought back the cure. It saved my life too, remember?”

“You don’t know, Salaman-san, because you dove into the dungeon right after the treatment. It was this Tauro-sama who taught her the cure.”
"What! Is that true!? Isn’t he just a little boy? I definitely thought you were a renowned human scholar or something..."
"Nice to meet you. For the time being, I will remove the status ailments that have been cast on all of you."
Tauro cast a spell to break the sensory paralysis of Salaman's Companions as soon as he greeted them.
“Wha! My vision is open and I can now use my skills!? …… I’m astonished. What? This boy healed me?─ ─ It’s amazing just to encounter the legendary “storm,” but to have a child who can cure the legendary “skill killer”.. ..”
“The effects are limited, so let’s hurry up and head for the ‘break room.’”
Tauro rushed the surprised dragon race.
Then Salaman nodded as if he understood that the treatment was temporary.
“I understand As long as we can cure the condition, we can find our way back. But there is one person I sent out to ask for help, do you know where he is?”
“If it is that person, they had reached the ‘break room' and I will take them to the ground later. Tsugumi-san, is that Alright ?"
Tauro could not just go ahead with the conversation, so he asked for confirmation.

“Yes, that would be fine. Then let’s go back.”
He then urged Salaman to lead the way and left the place.
“…after so long, we’ve finally reached a safe zone…!”
The team members were so relieved when they reached the “break room” on the 85th level that they laid down exhausted.
“How long were you lost when you encountered the ‘storm’ on the 86th level?”
Tauro asked the relieved Salaman and his team.
“Maybe close to half a month? We are very thankful for your help. We were running out of food, and in that condition, it would have been easy for someone to go insane at any moment.”
Salaman answered with a smile, patting his comrades on the shoulder and praising them for their perseverance.
Half a month in that state!? Normally, I think I would have lost my mind in a day. ……
Tauro was once again reminded of how tough the the dragon people were.

After that, he offered Salaman and his team a break to eat and catch their breath, and Tauro’s “spatial transfer” quickly brought them to the first floor.
Salaman and his team were surprised by the legendary ability of “spatial transfer,” but soon Tauro went to retrieve another person who was also evacuated on the 86th level and returned immediately.
When all the members of Salaman’s team were all together for the first time in many days, they were seen crying and hugging each other, as if the tension had finally broken.
Even with the toughness of the dragon people, there was still a sense of anxiety.
And the safety of his comrades must have been their greatest concern.
Tauro, seeing this scene, felt a sense of kinship with the dragon people, who are far removed from ordinary people, ever since Ragune.
“Tauro-dono, in addition to saving my life during the epidemic, you also saved my life together with my comrades this time. Once again I must thank you, thank you.”
Salaman bowed his head on behalf of the team, and all the team members followed suit.
“Everyone please raise your heads. It was only thanks to the efforts of the search team and this escort team that we were able to find you, and I only helped a little, so I don’t really deserve your gratitude.”
Tauro made Salaman and the others raise their heads.
“But you know what? I would like to thank you at least a little bit. I think that the “Storm” is something that even the most hardened of the capturers would have a hard time dealing with.”
“Then, since I am an adventurer, Salaman-san, Could you do something about the Adventurers’ Guild?”
Tauro asked about the village branch of the Adventurers’ Guild of the Dragon People, which could hardly be said to be functioning.
“huh? - Yeah. The Adventurers' Guild? ...... Are you an "adventurer" by any chance, Tauro-dono? This guy surprised me ......! I'm the head of a branch of the guild, and I've never met an adventurer before. I never met any because I mostly left It up to the receptionists to dive into the dungeon and earn money for the operation there. Wahaha!”
This is Salaman, the branch manager.

Tauro thought that it might be difficult to ask for more from the village branch of the Adventurers’ Guild of the Dragon People.
