As well as climbing down to the 21st floor, I decided to take the lead in The Shadow.

Rescue the Princess Army (Princess Knights). It is a battle against time.

It's almost impossible to hold out for a long time at a semi-destructed party against that boss on the 21st floor.

How soon can we get under it? Are you going to make it in time while you're alive?

That's where the fight is, and it's the key to saving Mia and Rayfah.

I'm the fastest maneuver at a party when Jin's gone.

The location of the enemy and all the paths to it are unfolding in the brain. It's not that hard to get there.

He refused the people of the 'Arrivals' and ran away.

There's Limna under the people I left behind.

If you have a girlfriend who can use Mapping , it won't take long to get to your boss.

The decision was correct.

I saw the swordsmith shaken down by lying Mia and thought so.

Instantly activates the Magic Palm Bottom (Spellsiotto).

A blow with the speed of The Shadow struck the devil's side beautifully.

I saw the devil's left arm melt and disappear.

What a power. I only had Erin weave it with care.

"Notebooks....."

I can hear the noise of childhood familiarity.

Good. Looks like he's alive. I'm glad we made it.

"What's the matter? Lie down there. It's not dangerous?"

There were so many things I wanted to say, but such a light mouth leaked out.

I am not an honest person.

I'm really glad you're alive. You think I'm relieved that the help came in time? You think you're okay? If you were dead, I wouldn't know what to do. [M]

The words that should have been used didn't come out, and it became like teasing her.

"That's the first word... hah..."

I hear Mia laughing bitterly.

I think so myself. I wonder what they're doing.

But I also feel like it wasn't the wrong word.

Because Meya and I are not friends anymore. Because I'm a rival.

It was the perfect reunion word for us to abandon our affection for her, break off the familiarity and promise not to see each other until one of us conquers the dungeon.

"If you have any complaints, get up. I'm sorry, but I can't fight Mia while covering for him."

The devil was instantly distancing himself as he roared.

The pattern unfolds where the left arm was located. In an instant, the cells were proliferating and the arms were being replaced.

"Can you recover...? It's a mess."

A wounded opponent would have been a little easier to handle, but only a 21-story boss has boulders. It will easily crush our hopes.

"I can't stand up....."

"Um, Miya-san... I'm not kidding like that..."

"I'm not kidding! I did my best! Fight alone until the notebook arrives! I'm gonna have to work a little harder! You can give me a compliment!

"Eh, it stings there!?"

"Already decided! I'll never move until I'm complimented! I'm not moving a finger!

"Hah... okay..."

Sigh, I say.

"Good work. Thank you for holding on. I'm really glad you're alive."

"─ ─"

Now I can say exactly what I wanted to say. I can hear Mia drinking her spit.

Say the following words to her, who is still lying.

"That Miya-san... praised me, so please get up..."

"I'm sorry... but I can't help myself this time..."

Yes?

"Relax, I'm telling you, I can't help you!

Even if you say so confidently...

If you don't get us out of here soon, we'll get caught up in enemy attacks...

"Ah, already!

I scratched my head and said.

"Okay. You can stay asleep. I can't get his sword to Mia."

That's how you step in.

I was trying to make time for my allies to arrive by attacking the Devil with a focus on dodging, but I changed my plan.

Gain time under pressure by approaching enemies.

Fortunately, he once had Spellsiotto. They must be alert to our attack power.

One more round of Magic Palm Bottom (Spellsiotto) is needed for this attack. It's an unbearable number of bullets, but there's nothing you can do about it.

I will fight with only a limited number of hands.

Lower your center of gravity and exhale so that your body doesn't get weird. Prepare for The Shadow.

The enemy is a 21-story boss. There is only one member who can fight. The only way to win is to hold out until everyone in the 'Arrivals' arrives without anyone being killed.

The condition is endlessly poor.

I'm sure Jin felt the same way.

When you took that demon alone to get us out of here.

I'm not feeling bad. Rather, it's perfect.

The princess' army (Princess Knights) made it a lot faster than planned fight back against the enemy of the cause, but the euphoria won.

This will keep me moving faster and faster. Now I can catch up to Jin's back.

"The Shadow"

I entered ─ ─ I was already in the enemy's pocket when I thought so.

An instantaneous step of divine speed that leaves the light behind. This acceleration must have been unexpected for the enemy.

A sighy sword. Easy to hold.

Immediately switch proximity to a side step and distance it from the sword that is swinging down.

The impact of smashing the ground makes flying stone pieces dance around.

Both of these effects were negligible thanks to the large amount of space that I could spare. After all, his sword is an inescapable power.

The first shot was easily avoided. But the second shot won't make them unconscious either.

The moment I turned around trying to avoid the pillars behind me, I threw away my second shot.

As he jumped up aggressively, he turned his back and tackled with the sword's momentum.

The kicking of the pillars caused a change of direction in time. The pillars that had been held back earlier were being stormed by the enemy and scattered as they rolled up the dust.

"I knew it was strong....."

The enemy's combat strength brings out a dry laugh.

You die instantly if you make a mistake. It was the ultimate battle, even if it was dead at the moment of the blink of an eye.

But I was able to get past the three shots.

I used to do my best to take three shots. I'm sure I'm growing up.

Next!

Run toward the enemy. We need to keep attacking Mia so we don't turn our enemies' attention.

"─ ─"

High-speed thrust. Triple Strike. When I thought I had, I put the Magic Sword next to my hips. Reservoir Stand.

The next thing I came was to wipe it out. While kicking around, the devil is definitely getting in time.

Strong stepping, swinging down from a sudden upper position.

This blow finally captured the shadow.

Phantom Avoidance Huantom ●

However, there is no substance in the shadow. The devil merely slashed the illusion.

Immediately enter the "Insectoid Walking Foot (Sink Oak)" position, under the swallow.

He's getting his hand cut off gradually. The enemy is definitely beginning to deal with this arts.

I missed a blow from the mid-stage position in the Exit (Wisdom Draw).

All evasive arts except Avoiding Streams were now shown to enemies.

Stream Avoidance is too risky. If you use this art, which requires enemies to approach the attack, it is possible that it will be taken to the shock waves of the Sword.

It is dangerous to turn the same arts again. I don't think the same dodge works against that enemy twice.

I can't help it ─ ─ Backward movement (bats slide)

This time it wasn't avoidance art. A rare art of attack that travels behind enemies in a mysterious orbit.

There's one thing to do when you turn around behind enemies.

Magic Palm Bottom Spellsiotto

I'm going to run out of last bullets here. I can't afford to leave room.

There was a big hole in the enemy's chest. I was able to see the darkness of the hierarchy from the cavity.

"It would be easier if I could take it down with this...."

Demons spin spells. The hole began to clog with a magical fool.

Humans can die instantly, but it is not strange. It doesn't seem like the devil can handle a heart attack.

I feel desperate.

A demon that blocks wounds and flaps its wings. He lowered his center of gravity and flew with one foot.

Highest speed burst attack. There is no comparison with the manoeuvring force just before, as long as there is accumulated time.

It may be tough to evade if you combine the "Vanish Shadow" and the "Leave (Wisdom Draw)".

Even if I could dodge it, now Mia and the others behind me will get attacked.

But it's okay. It is too early to despair.

I'll take care of the rest.

Reacting to the voices thrown into the void was a sword flash.

"The Blade Flashes!

A staggered sword and sword.

The Magic Sword brings a glorious light. The Demon Sword was unleashing a terrible black flame.

You've kept me waiting.

The voice belonged to our party leader, Force Grands.

When the Force plays the sword, the two take the form of a descending distance.

Because they knew each other's power with the first blow, or in a controlling atmosphere.

Without distracting himself, the swordsman's back, gazing at the next hand of the devil, was spreading in front of his eyes.

Really, I've been waiting.

"Ugh, I'm in a hurry."

"It was pretty close. Me too."

"I can't help it. Because it has to be in line with the scale of a neme or something. There is a possibility that monsters will appear along the way, and you can't leave them behind."

"That's true, but...."

"Besides, I thought you could hold on like this. I trusted you."

"It's a happy, unhappy expectation."

"You've lived up to expectations. Keep your chest a little tighter."

That said, the Force's consciousness went behind it for a moment.

There are people rushing in.

Erin, Roslia, Neme, Sophie, and Limna were leading the way.

"Your Highness!?"

Sophie rushes first to find Ray Fa, who is full of wounds.

"Feet!? Are you okay!?"

"Wherever you look, you look fine...."

Reifa breathed deeply in astonishment.

"Why did you come in the first place?

"Why... to save His Highness Reifa ─ ─"

"I'm asking why you're here to help. Even if you hate me, there's no way I can help you. 'Cause you're not under me anymore."

"─ ─"

"So why are you asking? Why would you want to help me?

"... isn't that natural?"

Sophie raised her face. Shizukuzuku fell at the edge of the eyes.

"His Highness Rafah saved me. I am alone. Everyone abandoned me. It was just you. Who reached out to me when your father and mother died?"

"I didn't mean to..."

"I don't care if I intend to! I wouldn't have been alive without you! That's why I decided to risk my life to repay you. Isn't that right!?"

But I abandoned you.

"... that's irrelevant. Even if you don't need help. Help me because I want to. That's what I decided."

As they stare at each other, some time passes.

"Enough. Leave it alone."

It was Ray Fa who broke first.

"You really can't use it. I don't listen to you, I move on my own ─ ─"

"... I'm sorry."

"So, not as a token. As a human being, I appreciate it. If you hadn't come to my rescue, I'd be dead."

"─ Your Highness"

"Thank you very much. Please come and help me."

I'm sure it was the moment she was rewarded.

Years of loyalty. Unilateral, distorted thoughts.

Finally, what happened was in the right shape.

On this day, Sophie Deanlark was saved in a real sense.

"Thank you very much. If I hadn't been for His Highness Reifa ─ ─"

"What are you crying about? I gave you an unusual compliment, so please be happy."

"... I'm so happy. I need you to help me with Lord Reifa.... this is tears of joy."

"It's confusing, really...."

Reifa stroked Sophie's cheek with her right hand, which she could easily move.

One stroke means more than wiping away tears.

The world was spreading as gently as possible.

I'd like to keep an eye on this sight for as long as I can. I want to congratulate you on the happiness of your people.

But this is the 21st floor, the deepest place.

Right in front of you is the demon who killed Jin, and the Force is facing him alone.

"Sophie, can we go now?

"Yes, I can defeat anything now."

Shining eyes stare at the 21-story boss. I felt Sophie's feelings switched to combat mode on my skin.

The actors are finally here.

Six of the 'Arrivals' and the demon who killed Jin.

Now we can begin the 21-story boss offensive.
