"Hahaha ...! Don't do it, human"

The demon laughs while sitting.

The demon popped up the dust on his body and stood up slowly.

"Take care"

Maple follows behind the demon who walks.

Riding on the magic circle where the demon has appeared, Maple has returned to the room where the four layers were.

"Now, humans. Follow me as promised. Did you intend to do that?"

The hands of the demon shine, and two cups dyed in vermilion appear.

The demon hands one of them to Maple, and then pours liquid from the newly emerged large gourd into Maple and his cup.

"I don't think humans will succeed. I can't drink mysterious sake. People can't drink ...

"Oh, yes!"

When the demon and Maple drank it, Maple was notified that the skill had been acquired.

"I have acquired the skill [Hyakki Yoko I]"

Then, after listening to the story of the demon, Maple was hitting the demon, but the demon rounded up the story.

"Are there many places to go? Come back, welcome! Until the time I die ... I'll always fight."

"Well, I don't want to fight again. Yes, I will come again!"

Maple waved his hand to the demon, got out of the room, closed the fusuma and grew a lot.

"Wow, I'm sorry ... I'm already used! It's okay to fight for the time being ..."

The maple, which suffered a considerable number of damages in this battle, was not defeated but was exhausted.

Maple wanted to avoid hard fighting as well as easy fighting for a while.

"Yes, you have to check your skills. Well ..."

[Hyakki Yoko I]

Call red demon and blue demon for one minute.

Demon status depends on skill level.

During this time, all skills of the user will be in the [Seal] state. Equipment skills are not [sealed].

After checking the current status of both demons, Maple noticed that it was.

"Eh, there's ah, how to raise it ..."

Maple had one idea of how to raise it.

The demon told Maple that he would always fight until his death.

Then there is one way to raise the skill level.

Once again, twice. There is no other way than to defeat the demon many times.

That seemed to Maple.

"Wow ... if so, it's okay ..."

The words that overflowed unintentionally and deeply reminded me that I no longer want to fight the demon.

Maple grew out of the building and into town, and once again grew up.

One thing was remembered from the back of Maple's head that thought was refreshed by that.

"... I can't go to the next layer !?"

Maple's clear, high screams echoed through the town on four levels.

Curiously wondering why he couldn't go to the fifth layer, Maple spoke to the players remaining in the fourth layer.

"Oh ... I misunderstand ..."

Maple sat on a bench set up in the town, leaning back and leaning on his weight.

Maple was noticed.

Demon was an opponent who did not have to fight.

"Five layers. What should I do?"

Today, the maple, which I do not want to fight, is sitting there, and a group of six, including familiar ones, walks from the center of town.

"Frederica?"

"Hmm, Maple? What happened?"

Frederica, who has been fighting Sally regularly, has often spoken to Maple in the process.

He stopped in response to Maple's voice.

"No, not really. Oh, Frederica."

"Okay, I'm going to the dungeon to go to the fifth tier with six people now. So I'll play again next time."

"I see ... Is that so?"

Maple stands up slowly and speaks.

"Can I keep up? I can only do that because I will protect everyone ..."

Maple said that many skills were unavailable.

"Hmm? ... Okay. There's room for the party members."

Frederica has no reason to refuse it in the first place.

It's like taking a back boss to a friend to beat the boss.

It's a pleasure to confirm that we can break through more stably.

"Well, please!"

Frederica and the maple take them forward.

That said, Maple's speed is just as good as it is, or even less.

"I can't help carrying it though."

Frederica buffs himself, lifts the maple with white wings on his back, accelerates further, and runs into the dungeon.

"Yeah, leave the defense up ... I can only defend."

"It's enough."

It is maple that creates an absolute protection zone just by being there.

It completely eliminates the dangers along the way.

Naturally, the seven guys managed to get to the boss room without missing any of them.

"Stuck together!"

Everyone who enters the boss room stands in front of the maple and proceeds.

Many players know the ability of Maple's Dedicated Mercy, which has been used repeatedly in the fourth event.

Almost all attacks are neutralized without scattering, so you can go straight to the boss.

Then he cuts his HP, cuts it, and hunts down the great fox. The Fredericas are also at the top level and with Maple's support, they won't lose much.

"It's faster!"

The fox's speed suddenly increased, as Frederica said.

You will not be caught and your attack will miss.

The fox's HP is about 20% and almost no remaining, but it is hardly hit.

"It's not as good as Sally ..."

Frederica mutters while continuing to shoot magic.

Everyone knew it would take a while, though a bit.

The fox jumps away and Frederica sighs.

"That's troublesome !?"

What I learned by fighting Sally.

Something like Dread's intuition.

What it conveyed to Frederica, it was a bad feeling from behind.

At the same time as Frederica looks back.

"[Hyakki night travel]"

Maple's glittering gold hair turned black and its wings glowed and disappeared.

It is the fire that overflows instead.

A purple flame that illuminates the maple from behind.

There are a lot of ghosts overflowing on the other side, two great demons standing on both sides of Maple.

Hyakki night travel, followed by maple, nightmares.

"go"

Two giants with gold sticks pop out.

The incoming fox has nowhere to evade.

The giant, the demon that picks it up, is also a giant.

Devils with low status are unable to beat the fox with a single shot.

Still, repeated hits. There are three large bodies that make the floor look small.

Red flowers bloom in front of the amazed Fredericas.

Damage effects bloom from the fox like blood gushing out.

There is no point in trying to improve your evasion ability without having space to evade.

There was no point in trying to avoid them where there was no place to survive.

The appearance of the foxes falling down and watching Frederica calmly seemed to have enlightened somewhere.
