"Hey, somebody! Come out!

Door slammed in a hurry.

Sophie and I were in the living room looking at each other.

"Who?"

"I don't know. This sign belongs to someone I don't remember."

"I feel like I've heard it before."

Let's get out of here.

I had no choice but not to answer because it was called in an unusual voice.

Heading toward the front door, they were alert.

When I opened the door, there was a strange girl with scratches.

"Help me! Hurry!"

"Help me, help me, help me..."

I'm confused. I turned to Sophie for consent, but she reacted quite differently.

"Limna...."

"Do you know him?"

"I have no acquaintance or anything, [mapping] personnel prepared by His Highness Reifa. A complementary presence when the notebook could not be solicited."

I've never known such a person before, but I don't think I can afford to pursue it now.

Someone must have attacked me. Limna is injured. We need to fix it now.

"Neme-san!

Find and summon the neme that rushed into the commotion.

Did she immediately understand some of the situation? Or is it a priest's habit when you see an injured person?

"I don't care about Limna! My people in the dungeon!

I spelled healing at the confused girl.

Wait, what about the dungeon buddies ─ ─.

"Companion?"

"Yes, I don't care about Limna. Hurry up and help Master Reifa and the others!

"Hey, that hierarchy..."

I saw the irreparable wounds of Limna and felt everything. The hierarchy they were heading toward ─ ─.

"21 Tiers"

"Eh!?"

You're kidding. They challenged the 21st floor.

"Help me!? Tell me more!

I can't use Gilberto's spelling anymore! Master Rapha's been attacked! Mill's dying! Everybody let the rim go!

Unguided chatter. That alone showed that something unusual was happening.

Apparently, Rayfa and her party were baptized on the 21st floor straight away.

"Of course! You can't use sacred magic on the 21st floor!

We were baptized. The gimmick of the first homicide in which a fellow was taken.

Apparently, Rayfa and the others challenged each other without any countermeasures.

What are you doing, idiot? Unlike the most advanced party we had at the time, we could have found out about the gimmick by looking into it, so you should do something about it.

I wanted to curse you, but even if you blame me for that now, nothing will change.

We didn't actually advise Rafa. No matter how many enemies they were, I knew they would challenge the dungeon, so I should have been able to advise them.

And yet it is cowardly to blame.

"His Royal Highness Reifa....."

Sophie's face next door was pale.

Unlike Rayfah, Sophie seemed to understand the horrors of the 21st floor.

If she had lived with us on the 21st floor, she would have felt it.

The obsession and fear we have on the 21st floor.

"Hurry up! We have to go help!

Even though she knows it, she seems to have made an immediate decision to move.

I grabbed Sophie's arm.

"Wait a minute."

"Get out of my way! Your Majesty's life is at stake!

I know that. I wonder how much Sophie cares about Rayfa.

And there's Mia in Princess Knight's Army. I just want to run right now.

"I know. You're going to help, aren't you?

"Then stop bothering me! Even if it is stopped, I will go. Never."

"I know. That's why I'm not going to stop. We're all going."

That's what he said, looking back down the hall. And there stood the people of the 'Arrivals', who were in a hurry.

"That sounds like it ─ ─"

It was Erin who answered my throw first.

"If Sophie is going, we have to go, too. I'm with the same party."

"Sophie has been taught how much she cares about the princess in the last few days. I can't help it."

The next person who opened his mouth was Roslia.

While laughing bitterly, she's starting to prepare for the dungeon expedition because she thinks about Sophie.

I always tend to push housework, but somehow I like Sophie.

"Thank you for making so many sweets, I haven't made them yet! I want to help Sophie!

It was Neme who came forward. I'm sure the thanks Sophie sold me weren't meaningless.

"We're going to attack the 21st floor anyway. It doesn't change a lot now or a few days ago."

The Force is as clumsy as ever.

To be honest, it is difficult to say that the 21 tiers of The Reacher (Albers) are well prepared.

The other day, I had just attacked 20 levels, and I hadn't discussed the 21-story strategy yet.

If it was true, I wanted to be fully prepared and challenged. That would be the same for the Force.

We lost people in the past because of lack of preparation.

Nevertheless, he rounded it up as if nothing had changed. I declared that my powers would make it something that would not change a lot.

"Everyone...."

I'm sure Sophie looked at it sweetly.

Everyone in the "Arrivals" cared more about Sophie than Sophie thought and saw and did.

For her sake, for her companions, there was no such thing as risking her life.

"Thank you."

Sophie lowers her head as she builds tears in her eyes.

"I promise I'll pay you back for this!

"That's fine, that's fine. Don't bother."

It was Erin who cut off the emotional words.

"Don't worry about being ungrateful or anything, just count on me. I'm one of them."

Thoughts Sophie cares about above all else. I kick it off as a piece of crap.

But that's not a word to discredit her.

Even if you don't have an interest in benevolence, you have a relationship that you can relate to. A pure interrelationship in which we think of each other.

It's a friend, a lover, a family. Humans interact in many ways.

I'm sure the party buddies are one of them.

"Mmm...."

Sophie said she was going to take a piss.

"Guys, please!

And bowed deeply and deeply.

"Help me save His Highness Rapha! Please!"

You don't say the answer, but you know it. Everyone was ready for the 21st floor.

"I'll do it myself. Looks like my childhood habits are pinching."

Speaking of which, Miya-san was at that party too. You're a really tough guy.... "

A familiar Roslia sighed.

"But you can't help it. I know him, too. We can't just let them die."

"It's coming out again... a guy named Miya..."

Erin had an expression of distrust, but decided to ignore it.

Once everyone is ready, the party leader opens his mouth.

Well then, let's go to the 21st floor!
