A bottle of liquid is rolling on the inside.

Should I say rainbow...... Fluorescent colored liquid. Obviously not a normal liquid.

"Do you know what you did!?

"Naturally! With this water we can stop humans"

Liquid that gives you new life.

That would be a substitute for what many would want if it were human. It's no wonder there's some risk of such a substitute.

But the "water of life" found in the third tier had created a new demonic stone by putting a golem in it. And it was also known that there was a plan to dwell human consciousness in demonic stones and live forever.

"No way, you were bringing the 'water of life' that was there!?

"I really meant to take it back and research it before using it, but it was an extra substitute in my hands. But if it's already proven, there's no hand to not use it."

- Dokun!

I felt something increase in Mr. Brian's body.

"Kitta -! This is a great force. I can feel the power overflowing from the depths of my body!

I open my eyes and check my body.

There was a kind of madness in those eyes.

"You, that's it..."

A former acquaintance, Mr. Ratchett was surprised by Brian's viciousness.

"You know what it's like to ask Ratchet for strong powers like those."

"Well..."

"Do you want so much power?

"Naturally. What kind of treatment do you think we got after that!

After that - after the beast of the end struck the king's capital. I know only a few things because I listened to them.

The S-rank adventurer must take the lead when Wang Du is put up in a predicament. When asked to go to a dangerous place, a certain amount will be paid each month without having to defeat the demon. As an adventurer, you can say that you are most favoured.

The money for this has been twisted out of the tax. That is why we must take the initiative and save the people who live in the king's capital if the king's capital falls into distress, something that has rarely happened before.

However, when it was actually attacked, it did not yield any results.

The raid left half of the S-rank adventurers dead or unable to move their bodies. Some S-rank adventurers were able to relaunch like Brian, but they were to be put on the arrow for not being able to do anything.

In other words, it is a pursuit of responsibility.

"You guys actually saved the King's Capital, don't we even deserve to be S-rank adventurers because we couldn't? That's how they say it."

Disqualification.

If only to that extent, the beginning and end of which some of those who dispute even demand a penalty commensurate with what they have paid so far. It is not easy to pay penalties to S-rank adventurers.

"This request will only be rewarded to the extent of the sparrow's tears, compared to what we have received so far."

"You can tell us that... if you have a complaint, you can tell the Adventurer Alliance."

"No, it's our fault we couldn't protect the King's capital. I am not going to complain about that decision. Still, what I don't like is your presence."

"Us?

"An adventurer who instantly defeated an enemy that we couldn't help. You are admired opposite of us who are cursed. Despite all those who had been anonymous until a short while ago, he showed up headlong with tremendous speed. Regardless of who could have fought a little before, the two young ladies will be different."

Mr. Brian's eyes are directed at Sylvia and Noel.

Ira was rolling around as a bounty hunter, and Melissa was also known in part as a talented wizard. Iris had climbed onto the A-rank adventurer on his own from before becoming one of them.

But Sylvia and Noel had been initialized levels and stats just before they became family members rather than having combat skills with their village daughter.

"All your people have unusual powers. It's more natural to think that being one of your people has led to unusual power than having five people with unusual powers."

"If so..."

"Isn't that unfair? It was so easy to get more power than we struggled to get."

In other words, jealousy for possessing unusual powers.

Wang Du fell into a predicament and became wanting strength because he was cornered.

"I understand why you drank 'Water for Life'. We'll move on to attack the ruins."

"This way."

All of a sudden it was a ruin that I was surprised by the fact that I drank 'Water for Life', but the fact that we were calm activates a lift device that allows us to go to the upper tier.

Three devices at the centre of the fourth tier.

The floor at the opposite side was rising from the lifting device used when it came up.

- Cum!

"... something?

I frown at the impact I felt on my back as I turned my back on Brian and walked out to the lifting device.

"What's that?

"It's a little bit of a powerful barrier."

I had let [the labyrinth junction] unfold around me for some time before I felt something was wrong.

Thanks to this, I was able to prevent Brian's attack, which was shot from behind, without even seeing it.

"Also, that's how you get special powers......!

Brian holds down his right elbow with his left hand and secures his arm from moving.

Everything that emits many lines of light from the five fingertips of your right hand is prevented by [the labyrinth junction].

"You think you can do this for free?

"What..."

"Looks like you got ahead of yourself because you were trapped by a greed for power, but what you're doing is a clear obstruction to the offense. What happens if the Adventurer Alliance finds out about this?"

A situation where the compensation is now being used to reimburse the liquidated damages by receiving and fulfilling the request.

If it becomes known that you have just acted selfishly or attacked someone who is supposed to be one of you during the request, it is possible that the request's good offices will no longer be provided in the future.

If that happens, there will be no means to repay the penalty.

Later, every day I am forced to take a tight job and be treated like a slave awaits.

"Why...?

Beat off the light that flew in.

The light sphere that was scattered around explodes, but it doesn't scratch me one that is protected by [Labyrinth Boundary].

"I do feel the power of bottomless power from within me. I can't believe I can't scratch one..."

"I'm sorry, but that's the difference in power I've got"

Approaching Brian's chest at once, dodging the light that flew in, slaps him on the palm bottom.

"Gu, hu...!

I have increased my endurance because I took 'Water for Life'.

Still, it's not like it can withstand my [Magic Shockwave], and getting a direct hit blows me back a lot.

"You're strong."

The voice of the ruins honestly admired it.

Brian was blown up and slapped on the wall. He's passed out, and he can't move with his hips down on the floor.

"Is that what it is?

I didn't feel as threatened by those who drank 'Water for Life' as Brian admired it.

'One was you were purely strong. The other thing is, because they were making modifications, they didn't work as well as we thought.'

"Modified?"

"The" Water of Life "in the lower hierarchy is intended to increase the strength of demonic stones that have been transformed into part of the golem. And because it specializes in producing demonic stones for the golem, it's ineffective where ordinary people drink it. '

"I see."

A substitute that wasn't worth enough to throw out your life.

"But are you glad you killed him?

"That would be better. I just have days waiting to be treated like a slave when I take him back and report honestly. Then it would be more honorable for him to bravely protect his juniors and decide to die in the ruins."

I'm never going to testify in Brian's favor of taking him home.

Witnesses would be enough if we had Mr. Ratchett, the same S-rank adventurer, and the Adventurer Guild now seems to find value in us. Even our own testimony will get you to believe it.

"I'll just go ahead. The goal is right there, so by the end of the day--"

When I point my foot towards the lifting device, I hear a strange noise coming from behind me and stop.

It sounds as if the metal was trembling and slapped. That was heard from Brian, who was blown away.

Oh, I was making a mistake.

Brian wanted a 'never old body' more than to be strong. "Water of Life" was a faithful combination of the thoughts.

"I don't need a vessel as a person. That's why."

The metals that make up the walls and floors are sent to Brian.
