Although I Am Only Level 1, but with This Unique Skill, I Am the Strongest

"Various..."

"Yeah?"

"I've been thinking a lot about meeting you and what the first voice is going to talk about. It's going to be this word in the end."

Nihonium grinned and smiled gently.

"That's great"

I said.

"What?

"Remember when I gave you the repetition?

"Oh. You mean the first time you showed up in front of me, right? He chose the magical fruit to be a repetition in the lottery."

It seems like a long time ago.

If I was a destination item store and seriously picked a magical fruit that would never be cheap for me at that time as much as 3 million piro, Nihonium showed up and showed me this was a good idea.

The magic of that time is repetition.

"Yeah. I really had to give you that magic. Normally, you can't get here without that."

"... indeed, you couldn't have defeated nine bodies within nine counts without a repetition. The three-necked dog had to start over a few times with luck, but Mummy was definitely second-hand"

"Yeah, that's why I gave that to you. No matter how strong you get with your status, no matter how much you build up your workouts, you couldn't have come here without a repetition... you should have"

Now nihonium with a glossy, colorful smile.

Japanese-style beauty in a kimono, that smile.

It was so colorful.

"I could have come this far without a repetition, so much strength. Far beyond my imagination... you're amazing."

They call me "wow" quietly.

It's a word they say from time to time, but Nihonium told me it tasted different...... I had joy.

"More than that, why did you call me? You have a reason, don't you?

……

Nihonium smiled sliced.

A lonely smile, unlike the smile I just had.

"Please don't laugh"

"Oh."

Nod clearly, stare straight at Nihonium, and wait for the end of the word.

"I needed it, I wanted to be"

……

"I don't have to dare speak to you anymore… I am not needed by anyone in this world"

"I have Margaret...... no, not that one either"

"Yeah, it doesn't have to be me. No one comes here but you."

That was an impossible thing to do.

This world where all things are dropped from the dungeon.

The dungeon is a field, a mine, a factory or something.

In it, nihonium drops nothing.

Whatever you do, it's a dungeon that drops nothing, no matter how the advanced adventurers in drop status A are all the way out of cages.

A barren earth that grows nothing with certainty, so to speak, that is the nihonium dungeon.

Nobody's coming, and it's only natural given this world's systems that you don't need.

"It's getting harder to sustain human life."

"What do you mean?

"Monsters usually have a lifespan. Monsters that have not been defeated and wandered in the dungeon will disappear at the end of their lives… there are no more humans who know this."

"... that's right. There's no way you can leave a monster for life."

Nihonium snorts at my words, and goes on.

"And a monster that disappears in its lifetime becomes air. The Nihonium Andettes, who never come, continue to create air day and night automatically."

"... oxygen, human breathing air,?

More nodding nihonium.

The gentle smile disappeared.

There she is, a tired woman.

"Everyone keeps the air they need, but no one needs it or appreciates it"

And it turns into a laugh of self-derision.

"In return, I'm tired."

……

I understand.

She's - it's me.

You were with me before you came to this world.

Hard work, desperately hard until you cut yourself, endure it.

Still, I'm forced to have days where no one appreciates me or rewards me.

She's me.

No... it's a less rewarding situation than I am.

"So I want you... to help me"

"... I've been told this before"

Word came down like a heaven.

Words that inspired me to step out of my new life then.

I gave it to Nihonium as it was.

"Hard work always pays off. There's a difference between early and late, but those who work hard will always be rewarded."

"Really?"

"Oh."

I nodded without hesitation.

And laugh.

"Because I am. So."

"So?"

"I'll turn you into a dungeon that anyone needs."

"Can I believe it, please?

Tears accumulate while nihonium remains.

"I don't believe it or anything."

"What..."

"Confirmed. Believe it or not, I'm not talking about levels. Those who work hard will be rewarded, more than I am."

This is also an oath.

To make my determination even stronger, I got strong words that I don't normally speak of.

Surprise, confusion, and - joy.

After all sorts of emotions came to Nihonium's face.

"- Yes!"

The third smile she showed.

It was a human smile reaching out from the bottom of hell, finding hope.
