"Its name, its race. No way, you...... '

"... what are you talking about?

Does the Golden Knight mistake me for someone else, and when I get up and fog the relatively loose atmosphere up to earlier, I put my hand on the sword pattern.

The air trembles with impatience. My cheeks tingle. You're strong, this knight.

Was it about ten seconds that we were staring at each other?

It was the knights who lifted this abruptly begun tension.

'... no, you're not. [incomprehensible] [incomprehensible] I thought he was reborn.'

"He...?

"Am I right? You're one of a kind, but you don't know?

"Yeah."

Such a strange way to say it, I don't know anything I don't.

Even if they say I'm one of them, I'm not a player and I'm not a pure ghost.

Amber tells me a lot about God, so I'm going to know a lot about him, but even Amber didn't react that way when he heard my name.

Even drinking, that doesn't change.

With that said, I remembered.

Hash, the knight of Sai Lane who did battle on the first day. She must have mentioned my name, too.

Sure... Was it 'wearing a strong name'...?

"Hey, did you know that Skna was a strong man?

'Hmm? Well... strong was strong, but there was always a ghost stronger than him'

"How strong a ghost?

"Oops. Look at the monster. It's so strong, that even our husband couldn't win. He was such a strong ghost. You know about a boulder and a drinking name, don't you?

Alcohol swallowing. Does that name come up here?

Swallow the desire to say so all the time and I decided to get on with his story.

It's as if you were a ghost born in this world.

Apparently the knight in front of me has not been able to tell if I am a player or not.

I'm also not sure you know the existence of a player in the first place.

Still, if you're mistaken, that's convenient. Because it might be better to extract information.

"... I know. Because you're like our God."

"Right. Well, I don't know how much time has passed since I fought them because time is different over here and over there... but what you don't know is" there's a reason I shouldn't know "

"Oh well. Well, that's right. Thank you very much."

'I guess so too, but you're light, too. Well, why don't you ask yourself and your grandmother? "

I thought Amber might not have said anything to me, but on second thought, it's not necessarily what Amber knew.

Because even Amber is in the "young" category among ghosts. There is also a great possibility that you don't actually know.

And at the same time... it would be an unmistakable fact that alcohol swallowing didn't dare say anything about this.

Well, I don't even know when I'll see you again, but if I can see you, I'll ask.

The same name as me, Sukuna, about the ghost that drunk swallows would have spent time with.

"Well, I'm not here to talk about this either, and I'm gonna get down to business."

"Please, sir."

"My name is Gold. Of the twelve knights serving Master Seylane. Then you're second strongest. I don't know why I'm here so strong... you know what I mean?

"It's for trial, isn't it?"

I answer his query with a slight glimpse of Kime's face without any particular thought.

'Well, half of it is. But the other half is for another reason. Before we fight, if you guys have to take him down, it's my job to tell you about him. "

"If I have to knock him out...?

"Yes. In the first place, this labyrinth blocked the exit by forcing our master to keep the big hole he wore to invade your world in the form of a gate. The hole is too big to close completely, so that's not why I'm going. There are limits to God's power. In three days, the gate will be broken."

"Hmm."

What he's saying is the raison d 'être of the gates built all over that city. I don't know, but that's the god over here... maybe the god of creation built it to prevent some kind of invasion.

On the contrary, wouldn't a monster in the gate mean an enemy that's coming to invade the world over here?

'That's a good focus. Those monsters are only defenses that were born with your husband's power in their resources. I'm just in the shape of a monster in your world because I'm connected to your world. I mean, it's just a defensive function, like the Twelve Horsemen. "

"Hmmm... What are you defending about defensive functions? You mean your husband?

'No, they're protecting only one monster. Our husband only sent that monster in for the invasion. That's one of your husband's favorite kept monsters, and that's the enemy you guys just said you had to take down.'

"Mmmm."

I'd like to sort things out a little bit.

That gate blocked the hole that Gordo's master built to invade the world over here.

The Miscellaneous Fish Monster in the Labyrinth is like a defensive function that was born based on your husband's power to protect the monster that his husband sent in.

The enemy we must defeat is its only united monster.

Is this the place?

"Hmmm...... I mean, you guys come over here to invade and wait for that to break because they've blocked that entrance?

"No body, no lid. That's the way to put it."

"So we just have to find that monster and get rid of it within three days, right?

'You don't. All you have to do is complete as many trials as possible. "

"Whoa, come here. Are you kidding me?

The words I said with a little confidence were lightly denied and a little depressing.

This is not my area. Lynn, help me.

"Your husband knows that if you start invading this world, you can close the gates. Naturally, the monsters you keep are hidden from being properly touched '

"Oh, you do, don't you?"

Hi As far as his words go, his husband...... I know it's probably about Seylane, but that doesn't seem like this is the first invasion.

I guess that's what you've done to get repelled each time you've attacked again and again.

Naturally, you know this is the situation, and in fact it happened this time.

Oh, well. I just noticed.

This time we players are attacking this gate as a game, but until now, the NPC has been carrying the same role.

Unlike us, there's only one lifeless NPC.

That, to defeat Sai Lane's keepsake monsters and dogs.

Maybe Amber too. Or we met in that fierce...... Melty too.

'But well, there is naturally a fair price to pay for creating a different space, something that no one can touch. It won't make any difference. "

"I mean, if there's a disadvantage,"

Corresponding limitations exist for forces that yield too large a return in WLO.

"Hungry Wolf" is easy to understand. The type with clear pros and cons.

Judgment used by Lynn was also subject to appropriate consumption and conditions for activation.

Of course, there's no limit to everything.

For example, equipment can only enjoy the benefits if it is not cursed.

Any equipment made within the resources of the material is acceptable no matter how powerful it may be.

My Solo Tsubaki is a good example. This hair decoration, which embodies the soul of the named, has a blistering performance of "halving SP consumption," but there are no disadvantages that seem to exist.

Well, on the contrary, if you set up some disadvantage even in materials that are not a big deal, it's why you might be able to do more than a resource.

That's why the Curse Gear is so powerful because it has that kind of ability level bottom up.

Anyway, it seems that this law also applies to Seylan, who lives elsewhere than in this world.

I guess that means that at the stage of entering this world, it will be placed under the same law.

"The downside of your husband's hanging is that he frees up that different space just moments before the gate is destroyed. However, there is another condition for reaching that different space. That's... '

"Breaking through trials, that's why."

"To be precise, if you have proof that you have broken through the trials, you will be forcibly transferred to different spaces at the moment when time is full."

With liberation only a short while ago, few players will be able to reach it. Besides, if we don't get past the trials, we won't be able to fight. It's like a double restriction and it doesn't seem shackled.

If you're saying that you can definitely go to that monster's bunk as long as you break through the trials though, does that constitute a restriction......?

But this solved a lot of mysteries.

There's still so much I don't know, like mystery calls for mystery, and there's so much I want to hear.

Unfortunately, because he seems more like a limit.

"Ha-ha-ha, I think I feel comfortable with you. You know me well. '

"'Cause it's easy to understand..."

'... once and for all, there are several different kinds of trials available. It doesn't matter if I fight the wizard in close proximity. Well, a warrior like you is naturally a sword. "

Gold pulls out the sword he carried with one hand.

The sword is golden with the pattern, but the sword part is pale.

Is the pressure thin for Orihalcon......? My instinct told me it was maybe another metal.

'In the end, I'm a brain muscle. Speaking with fists is quick. Most importantly, try to get to know you right away. "

"Hmm. Well, I thought that would happen."

Pull out the shadow seam on your back and place it in the front eye.

I can't be alarmed. Because the strength of the knight in front of him, who named him Gold, will not be compared to the knights of Seylane who have fought so far.

"I still have something I want to ask...... let's just do it"

"Oh, if I live properly, I'll answer you."

No more exchanging words.

(i) After breathing, the sword and gold bars cross.

Along with the ringing hard metal noise, the trial opened the curtain.
