--I successfully rendezvoused with my friends and stepped straight into the tower of Sierro.
"Oh no! Too many enemies!Too many stairs! "
After fighting the monster, Malta crouched on the spot.Normally, Julius nodded and looked up at the ceiling.
--It's been a long time since I went up the tower.Still, we never get to the top.
While holding his sword, Vake murmured at the view from the window.
I think I've climbed a lot already.
Indeed, looking down the window, the forest is far below.The view from the window is above all proof that it has gone up quite a few floors.
Inside the tower in Sierro, monsters were waiting for each floor.When you defeat the monster, a staircase appears that leads to the next floor.In other words, the battle and the climbing are repeated.
"Every time I climb, I get tired of fighting! Monotone!"
"What if the next floor is a maze?It would be easier to go up if you defeated the enemy. "
Maybe so.
Malta was dissatisfied, and Julius was embarrassed.I smile at the familiar interaction between the two.
I take the water bottle out of my bag and replenish it.It's a simple dungeon, but it drains a lot of health.
Diona called out to me, caring for me as I wiped the sweat off my forehead.
"Laura, are you tired?"
"It's okay, thanks."
I began to see fatigue among my companions, and I didn't immediately climb the stairs where the monster was defeated, and I took a break on the same floor for a while.
Light a fire and sit in a circle.Heal with healing medicine and healing magic to restore health and fill your stomach with an emergency meal.It was time to rest a little and stand up from nobody.
"Ah, watch out!"
Lukash screams. Looking at you aggressively, a monster was about to attack behind Malta, where it came from.
Master Wentor!
I retrieved the crossbow reflectively and fired an arrow with the help of Wentle.However, the arrow, reinforced by the power of the Spirit of the Wind, which took its aim off because of the hurry, pierces the wall quite deeply.
It wasn't my arrow that killed the monster, it was Vake's powerful move.
Malta, are you okay?
Daijubu! I'm surprised already. Thank you! "
All my friends are relieved by Malta's cheerful smile.I'm glad I didn't get injured.
We go up the stairs again, arguing that it was good.The monster was still waiting for him before he could reach him with his heavy feet.
"Haah, do you still have it?"
Malta shrugs her shoulders down.I was about to complain, but when I saw the monsters in front of me approaching, I was ready.
--It didn't take long to destroy all the monsters.
The last one collapses and the floor is wrapped in silence.I could hear someone breathing because I didn't know how many times.
You're tired of the boulders.
Unusual Diona made a faint noise and leaned against the wall.I looked at her trying to hit her with a gavel - and I noticed a small scratch on the wall she was leaning against.
The tower of Sierro has no scratches on its exterior or exterior.Too perfect a figure to be left out of this tower alone.That's why I felt uncomfortable with the scratches on the wall - the little holes.
I try to get closer to seeing the wound.Then he stared for a few seconds and noticed that he recognized the size of the hole.
Remove an arrow from the arrow in the bag.And I gently matched it to the hole in the wall.--That way, I got stunned.
"... this wall wound, the arrow I shot earlier..."
He murmured and looked at me as if Diona was surprised.
A crossbow arrow that fits neatly into a hole in the wall.The cracks in the wall around the hole probably caused the arrow's attack power to rise considerably thanks to Wentor-sama's help.
Perhaps, no, no doubt, the wound on this wall was caused by the arrow that was released earlier to help Malta.
"Are you saying we were circling the same floor?"
Diona, who immediately grasped the situation, asked.I nodded afraid, "I don't think so."
"Bullshit!"
Malta rushes in. And I looked at my hand - the arrow stuck in the hole in the wall - and I said, "Really?"She cried out a voice similar to that of screaming.
The male team walked in the same way and nodded bitterly as if they had to be convinced and looked into my hand with suspicion.
I don't want to believe it. I don't want to believe it - we may have been circling the same floor all along.If you think so, you'll be satisfied with the construction of an overly monotonous tower.Not every floor was made the same, but they went around the same floor over and over again.Exactly the same gimmick was waiting for us as we could climb!
"... I wonder if it's a boundary."
"Probably."
Lukash said, Diona nodded.
Well then, let's find a way to break that line.
"It's easy, but if you find it right away, you won't have any trouble!"
Julius blurred and Malta roughed up her voice.
They were all exhausted and frustrated because they realized that what they had done earlier had been in vain.I know exactly how it feels, but I was thinking alone, staring at the hole in the wall.
They circle around the same place by enemy traps.I knew the gimmick.
(I've seen this trick, "Last Brave," but surely there was a real staircase hidden somewhere else...)
I see a staircase leading upstairs.That staircase is probably a fake.
Looking back, he opened his mouth to ask the relatively sober Wake and Arnold.
"Um, is it possible that the stairs we climbed were fake?"
"What do you mean?"
It was Vake who responded.Arnold remained silent beside him.I didn't think it seemed that way.Is he quite tired, too?
"Well, maybe there's a real staircase upstairs that's hidden somewhere.We're going up a fake staircase that loops the same floor... "
"Ah, I see!"
It was Malta who sandwiched his gavel like he was interested in.
"Let's split up and find it."
And Diona went on to propose.
Whipping the tired body, we began to investigate the floor.Touch walls, floors, and ceilings with your hands or weapons to investigate, or explore looseness in the boundary.
As I watched my fellow searchers in the tunnel, I desperately tried to remember the memories of my previous life.How did you discover a hidden staircase in Last Brave?
(I wonder where it happened.Did you check the statue?Did you use the item?)
Hmm, I can't remember what to think about.At this time, I felt disgusted with the lack of memory of my previous life - ah, I came up with something.
It was an event in the woods until I came to the Tower of Sierro.The Spirit of Water followed me to the Tower with some smell.Could you do the same thing here?
I peek into my bag.Then the Spirit of Water with a complex expression looked up at us.
"Hey, you know what?"
I can swim my gaze with hesitation.But as I stared, the Spirit jumped out of the bag as if it had been an idea, and put his nose to the floor.
Nfufu, the water spirit eventually reaches the wall after following the smell.Then I scratched the wall with my nails.
"Is it beyond this wall?"
What?
Malta leans over.
"This kid cares about this wall all the time....."
"Hmm... Spirits call each other, right?Maybe the other side of this wall is the real way? "
I think that's probably true.You may as well imagine that there is a real staircase beyond this wall.
But the question is, how do we break this wall?I put my palm against it to see how it feels, but it's not a very good wall, but it's not an easy wall to break.It was a fairly sturdy wall, and even with Wentor-sama's help, it made a hole as small as an arrow, so it was perfect.
Malta and I were worried about each other in front of the wall, and some time later, people were gathering beside us.
"But how do you break down the wall?"
"Is that... a bomb?"
Julius asked. Malta answered.
It was said that the method shown by Malta was the most suitable.But unfortunately, we don't have a bomb, and it's a similar technique.
Move, I'll do it.
* giggle *, I was pushed by a strong force.Oops, I fluttered for a moment, but somehow I stepped on it and saw the person who pushed me over. It was Arnold.
He looked up at the wall in front of him, blindfolded.I thought, without any sign, a large magical formation appeared at my feet.
The moment I thought, I was drawn to a big arm.Then the sound of an explosion shaking the tympanic membrane.It was armor that hit my head, so I think it was probably Vake who protected me.
Reflectively open closed eyelids.In that way, Arnold's powerful magic had caused the walls to collapse brilliantly.
"Hey, aren't you overdoing it!?"
Wake screams with me in his arms.But Arnold didn't care and walked past the broken wall by himself.
"Oh! There's a staircase at the end of a broken wall!"
Julius chases Arnold's back.
After the smoke completely disappeared from the explosion, I was able to find a new staircase beyond the wall with my eyes closed.The other companions rushed to the real stairs cheering.
(I wonder if this was such a force trick...)
I think about it secretly.In Last Brave, I remember it was a slightly smarter way to solve mysteries - well, let's just say we managed to break through.
"Thank you" to the Spirit of Water and lift him up.And I followed my friends, and I stepped across the wall, and...
And then I realized that my childhood friend was standing on the spot without advancing.He is staring at something with a sharp expression for some reason.
Follow the sight of childhood. Beyond that, there were people laughing near the stairs.
"... Luca? What's wrong?"
"Ah, yeah. Nothing. Let's go."
Speaking up, Lukash smiles to reassure me.But I was familiar with him, so I realized that his smile was not enough.
What did he do - who was he staring at?
