Game Youjo ~Yaku Atte Kougekiryoku ni Zenfuri Suru~
"It's okay! So tell me the status quo!"
"fee... for now, you'll be relieved."
In front of the boss's room on the second basement.From there, we flew to the ground with a transporter on the ground floor.
The fox was responsible for me, and I finally got down to the ground here and there without strength.My head was already chaotic.
"Hey, did you hear that? Something strange is happening upstairs."
Surprisingly, I hear a conversation at an adventurer party nearby.
"Something weird? What is it?"
"Everything seems to be in front of the boss' room - a strong dragon blocking the way?"
"Seriously? Can't you take it down?"
"It seems impossible. He was instantly killed by firepower like an idiot.The losing player is being sent back to Respawn. "
What is it, a guerrilla event?
"I don't know, but we haven't heard from Operations yet, have we?"
The story draws my heart out.
... definitely a Hellchaos dragon. The most powerful dragon that Puni has ever created with the power of a bug.That's what's interrupting everyone's adventure now....
Unconditionally attacking players who are nearby....
That's when it happened.
- Pyrrolidine. Pyrrolidine.
Suddenly a notification sounded.
When I opened the command screen, it was an urgent announcement from the operation.
[Notice from Dungeon Quest Management]
Thank you very much for playing this game.
This time, we decided to perform emergency maintenance at 14: 05.If you are currently playing, please log out as soon as possible.
In addition, we will inform you about the contents and compensation of this maintenance at a later date, so we will not be able to answer any questions.
Emergency Maintenance. Operations are finally up...
I don't know who reported it, but I'm sure it's about Puni....
Looking at the time, it is now 14: 00.We'll be in maintenance in five minutes.If that happens, will Puni be deleted...?
I want to help Puni.But what can I do in five minutes...?
I wonder if Nayu is the first person to help me.I wonder what happened to you, Nayu.You're not really dead, are you?
I'm worried, but I have no idea what we can do to help.I really don't know what to do anymore with my head in chaos....
"Hey, it's an emergency maintenance. Something wrong?"
I don't know.
I can hear the nearby adventurer.
"What the hell!? The names of all my gear and tools are typed!?"
"Eh!? Seriously!? Maybe emergency maintenance is a bug fix?"
Every time I hear the word 'bug', my body trembles.
"Hey, this whole city is crazy!? There's a mosaic everywhere."
"Is there something wrong with the image processing?It's likely to be a bug. "
Puni-chan's bug is eroding into the city as well as the dungeon!?
Because I couldn't reassure Puni, I'm bothering the operator and everyone else....
Even the first Guardian Spirit floated and turned away from this.It's all my fault....
That's why Puni-chan said, "Die!"....
"Ahh... uhhhhhh..."
It collapses on the spot. I was about to be crushed by anxiety and regret.
I was sad, my chest was about to tear apart, and tears spilled.
"Sanaan, it's okay!? It's not Sanaan's fault!"
Ruri-chan gives me a hug.
Both Miho and Chiko stroked my head and rubbed my back.
My tears do not stop so sweet to everyone.Instead, it overflowed.
"... we all managed to support her, but the princess couldn't move easily in that state.What are you going to do, Sylvia? "
"No matter what we do or do, we're not in control anymore.I'll leave it to the operation to perform emergency maintenance..... "
I shed tears surrounded by everyone.So a little time passed.
14: 04. 57 seconds, 58 seconds, 59 seconds --
Maintenance time finally arrives.Even if you were logged in, the game would have been dropped and the player would have been played in the real world...
14: 05. 05 seconds, 06 seconds...
When the maintenance time comes, the game is never dropped.We were still logged in.
"Hmm, why...? Maintenance!?"
Looking around, the players were still flirting with confusion.
And then one player...
"Hey, look at the sky!"
That's what I shouted.
When I was caught looking at the sky, there was a sight that I had never seen before.
Usually it is the sky of the city where the blue sky spreads, but the bright red line of the sky is covered with turtle patterns.No, maybe it's this city that's wrapped up.
A turtle armor covers the city to protect it.No, maybe the other way around, it seemed like a boundary to keep you from escaping....
- Ooooooooo.
Even more creepy sounds are ringing.When the bright red armor flashed, there was such a strange sound.
Somehow, it sounded like Puni's heart was screaming, making my chest even more painful....
"Oh, hey, it's kind of weird.Should I log out? "
"That sounds interesting.Let's take a closer look. Anyway, when the maintenance starts, they'll log out on their own. "
There were many players who didn't log out because their liver was resting or because they didn't know what was going on.
Among those players...
"Mr. Shannon! You were here!"
With Nayu's voice, there was a player rushing in Nayu's appearance.
"Nayu... honey?"
You're absolutely right, Nayu!
"Nayu-chan!!"
"Wow!?"
I vigorously stuck to Nayu's waist.
"I'm glad you're okay! I thought you were dead... and I was worried..."
"Oh, what an honor it is to be so worried."
Nayu smiled kinda happy.
"I'm sorry, Nayu! I'm sorry for not being so sure..."
"That's enough. It's not Shannon's fault.I know Shannon just wanted to believe her. "
Nayu was more gentle than usual to me than ever.
"Now, let's get back to moving.We don't have time right now. "
"You don't have time...?"
"Yes, we're still very confused by unexpected events on the operations side.So from here on out, Mr. Shannon, you have to decide and act on your own.Does your head work properly? "
That's what they're saying, and they're staring at me seriously.
I... don't know. I feel so relieved that Nayu was safe.
If you take a deep breath, the moisture in your head will clear up.
It's okay! If Nayu is safe, there's nothing left to lose!Your head is spinning!!
"It's okay! So tell me the status quo!"
After I wiped my tears off my sleeves, I answered so forcefully.
