Kono Sekai ga Game da to, Ore dake ga Shitte Iru

Chapter 126: The Resolutions of Each

The unweakened Demon King is an invincible monster.

The characteristic named Tolerance makes it resistant to all attributes, all state anomalies do not work and does not accept any weakening.

Nor can I ever defeat physical attributes or pure magic attributes because I don't just deactivate them by mitigating them, but I know how difficult it is to defeat Butcher, who has the same physical resistance.

And because we have complete tolerance by default for state anomalies and reduced ability effects, this one is 100% effective, never.

Where to sharpen this total resistance with a weakening quest, that can be said to be the basis of the strategy against the Demon King.

The first three weaknesses we inflicted on the Demon King were in terms of talent.

Attack, magic attack, agility.

I really wanted to sharpen my physical defenses as well, but that was impossible in terms of quest difficulty.

Well, my attacking power has reached that level, both in terms of manipulation and in terms of power.

We'll figure it out even if our defenses aren't down.

Weakening of the offensive surface was imperative, as it would not cause any more casualties than that.

I can stretch my chest to say that I didn't make the wrong choice about this.

Physics and paralysis were the only things that weakened them in terms of resistance.

I am not willing to deal damage with magic or Attribute Attack from the beginning.

I'm sure I'll be in a child state where I don't need Southern at this point, but I don't mind because I plan on letting him even use magic in the stages leading up to getting there.

With regard to attacks with abnormal states and reduced abilities, stripping them of resistance is not such that they can be expected to "not work at all" to the extent that it changes to "works extremely rarely".

Once in, I only stripped away the resistance to paralysis that seemed advantageous, but still the paralysis resistance of the Demon King is 95%.

Even if you strike an attack that's bound to paralyze your normal enemies, your chances of success are only one-twentieth.

Finally, I tell you, the Demon King also has Stan and Knockback resistance, and whether it's a specification or a bug, there are no events that can eliminate that resistance.

In other words, the Demon King is always in a super armored state with no glare or blow, which is more troublesome than I thought.

This will be the last point of the Demon King battle, how to hit the big moves against the super armored Demon King.

In addition to his basic abilities and resistance, he also sealed the properties and methods of attack of the counter system that are likely to cause self-regenerating abilities and sudden accidental deaths.

Depending on the way you fight, some attacks can be fought in your favor if you don't seal them.

This time, it's a form that leaves a big gap in close range and seals around cumbersome distant and medium range attacks.

If there was just one concern, could you not seal the nasty move of 'homing flare'?

This' homing flare 'is a common move in games that emits a number of trackable fireballs, but the hassle with this move lies in drawing a special orbit called random homing.

I'll go into more detail about this random homing if I get a chance, but this type of attack is hard to get all bullet hits, but it's hard to get around completely no matter how quickly.

Of course, it's a long-range attack, so I don't think it would be a problem if I approached within three meters of the Demon King, but I'm a little nervous in case.

This move is not only dangerous because nothing is easy to avoid.

The Demon King's attack is just to say the King of the Boulder Demons, with many dark attributes.

For this reason, I mainly asked Maki and Suthern to collect equipment that is resistant to dark attributes, but this' homing flare 'is a rare fire attribute for Demon King attacks.

Moreover, due to a high-powered attack, it may be dangerous to hit Sutherns and others who remain anxious on the defensive side.

Is it possible that eating this at our party would be bearable as a mitzvah with strong resistance to the four major attributes?

Mitsuki can reduce fire attribute damage, even though it's not complete, and with that speed, it's impossible to hit all bullets.

But when I think about when I hit someone else... no matter how powerful I say it is, I don't think I have anything to worry about, because the Demon King's magical aggression has been dropped.

However, if there is only one anxiety material, of course that is not the case.

The same goes for the weakening of the Demon King, but I'm quite prepared to do so in the sense of strengthening this one.

First, let Suthern go around the item shops in each town and the recovery items became luxurious.

Especially since there are few arrivals, it is significant that we have been able to secure large quantities of MP potion, which is a plain precious item.

Thanks to this, you won't have to think about the worst case scenario of an MP running out during the operation.

With regard to other consumer items, there are still previous store purchases for ordinary items, and useful excavations make lists and tell Southern to buy them as soon as he finds them.

Then Southern also has a ladder and other props to get into the castle gate after stepping through the blood pond area.

At least, it doesn't look like the lack of items is going to be a neck in this fight.

It's also up in the sense of individual ability, of course.

Me and Ringo got a new stunt, and thanks to Butcher, the levels are rising commensurately.

We're both at level 178.

I also feel a little uncomfortable challenging the Demon King of Level 250, but it would be an achievement there if I raised it amid restrictions.

Speaking of other fellows, Mitsuki also said he took a few levels in carrying out numerous events.

I haven't heard the final level yet, but it will be stronger than it was ten days ago.

As for Susan and Kuma... well, Mayuki is getting stronger.

In Maki's case, the original level was high, so the level could not be raised, but the equipment was modified for that matter.

It is, of course, a trait not found in other humans in Maki that the minimum standards of weapon performance for all were raised to the bottom thanks to the acquisition of large quantities of meat-cutting knives from Butcher.

Maki is just like me and has no restrictions on accessories.

Especially the fact that you can wear as many as ten rings can be said to be of great benefit.

Equipment has been fitted around the resistance system, and we have become proud of the defense of the iron walls.

This is in line with Maki's role in the Battle of the Demon King.

In the Battle of the Demon King, I attack the Demon King perfectly as an avant-garde.

Stay away from Maki a little bit, and if you think you can join the fight, Mitsuki will refrain, look at the gap and attack.

The rear guard is equipped with apples, southern bears, and in times of need, the apple uses the ninja knife skill "Hidden" to protect both of them.

If I leave the side of the Demon King for any reason, the Demon King's Ranged Attack will begin.

I was going to ask Maki to fill that hole.

If I get away from the Demon King's radius within three meters due to a knockback or something, Mayuki, who has excellent defense and reflex nerves, approaches the Demon King instead and draws the Demon King's attention until I get back.

I'm a little anxious, but if I even decide to defend myself when I'm approaching, Mayuki's ability will work it out.

And then, is it time for me to use The Incarnation of Rage?

"The Incarnation of Anger" is a skill that you can't use if you have company nearby, but its limitations are actually not that severe.

I just wish I didn't have company around when I activated my skills, and it's not very broad in scope.

It's a lot bigger between demon kings that demon kings refrain from, so if we move each other away, we won't be able to use them from the middle of the battle with demon kings.

Anyway, I detailed the signals when I used The Incarnation of Rage and the distance I needed to do so.

I told him the same thing three times because I am particularly anxious in the case of Southern.

Even if I explain something like this, I feel like I have blood on my head at the heart of it and forget about it, but let's expect follow-ups around about it.

Oh, my God. If I'd explained it all the time, it would have been quite a while.

When I finished answering a few questions from everyone, I greeted Ena one last time, in this appearance, and we left the mansion as well.

- The destination is north.

It's the Belion Volcano, the soaring of the Demon King's Castle.

Along the way, we go on experimenting with collaboration with monster opponents.

At first, all the monsters below level 100 were coming out, but as Berion Volcano approached, so did the level of the monsters.

The final enemy level is 175.

"Yo, yo, yo!

"... n"

A touch of armor sleeves in front of us when we got stronger.

There's no need for me to fight, and Maki and Ringo flatten one after the other.

Suthern, who was the biggest source of concern, also seems to be holding back my shoulder-mounted kuma from glittering the knife (which, due to weapon synthesis, has the same offensive power as a meat-cutting knife).

... but I just want you to stop swinging the knife over your shoulder, I'm scared.

That's how it finally got to the foot of the Berion volcano.

It is in the volcanic crater that there is the Castle of the Demon King.

Naturally, you can't see it from here.

I just feel like a bad sign from behind the mountain.

Or maybe that's because of a dark, dark cloud that raises dark thunder that never floats directly above the fire escape.

In that dark cloud, which symbolizes the power of the Demon King, I feel deep-rooted awe and realize that a strong fighting spirit springs up.

(... you can still go, right?

Mitsuki doesn't need to worry about the rendezvous place because she has the Explorer's ring, and it would be more efficient to keep going as far as possible.

Make sure everyone doesn't see the shadow of fatigue and decide to move on.

The enemies of the Berion volcano were strong and the mountains steep, but the kind of people who now make noise to this extent, to my people...

"Ki, you guys, wait a minute, agu!

... Well, there's only one.

I thought I was fully equipped, but I forgot to tell Suthern to dress up for a mountain climb.

The monster wasn't a problem at all, but when we did it and Suthern fell over and over again because of the thick boots on the soles of his shoes, and each time our steps stopped.

I know I deserve it, but I get worried that I've fallen so many times on a boulder.

"Uh, Southern? If you're tough, you can take a break here..."

Careful. That's what I suggested, but Susan shook her head, exhaling bitterly.

"Stupid, say, don't say.

I don't have time to stop here.

You know it best, you know it better. "

Suthern, breathing incessantly, still says so invincibly.

I had to reveal my appreciation for this guy.

"Southern, you..."

Southern is often misunderstood because of his clothing, words and behavior.

But it is only in extreme conditions that the true price of a person emerges.

Really, this guy...

"Come on, Soma! I'll give you permission to carry me!

- I thought you were the worst scumbag.

Very, very quickly, as soon as I carried Suthern, the march was speeding out of step, and we came as close as we could to the crater of the Berion volcano.

If you go to the fire exit, thunder flies from the black clouds over your head.

Fortunately, there's no way the monsters are coming out of Demon King's Castle, and stopping here and waiting for Mitsuki would be a good idea.

Everyone started to feel thoughtful when I told them to take a break by putting down Southern.

Apple has quickly begun practicing skill cancellation on the spot, and Suthern has worn a dirty cloak, complaining about bumps.

And Maki,

"... soma, you know, hey?

After defeating the Demon King, "

For some reason, I asked in a suppressing voice, caring a little about the apples in a remote place.

In the sign of a secret story, Kuma, the air readable plush, descends from my shoulder.

And he looked back at me and did something like thumbs-up...

No, you don't have a finger, and I nodded back at Maki.

Maki also seemed a little surprised by Kuma, but spoke in a naughty tone that did not fit the character.

"Eh. If we defeat the Demon King, that means the game's clear, right?

So we're in the original world, right?

Maki has asked that with about 80% anxiety and 20% expectation eyes.

"Ah. Speaking of which, didn't you explain that, too?

I'm afraid not. "

If there's any guarantee that you can clear the game and get back to reality, it's been working that way since the beginning.

"Cat Ear Cat" is still an inclusive game, and if you say it, there's no end to it.

The performance was a soggy word, although once the Demon King was defeated, the game was clear.

After a bloody struggle, when he finally defeated the Demon King, he first developed a super-drawdy death effect that was too much light to be seen directly.

In the meantime, if you hear the Devil King's throwaway dialogue and you think the light has finally subsided, now suddenly you staff roll all over your sight.

Slightly more than five minutes of staff roll flowing with magnificent music can neither skip nor fast forward, and although you can only log out of the generic menu, the data then remains in the state it was before defeating the Demon King.

After finishing that torture-like five-minute period and the last sentence of the staff roll, the message "THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYING (translated: THANK YOUR PRAYING)", no particular event fits in, and once it doesn't even go back to the title screen, the point of view normally stands between the demon kings who are gone.

From there, players had to take Monster Castle to the city, so there was no game clearing finish or snag.

Or it wasn't even saved when the game was cleared, so it was the lowest specification that if I died on my way home from Demon King Castle, I would have to defeat Demon King again.

There are no logout elements so far, and the cause we flew into this world has nothing to do with clearing the game in particular.

With the defeat of the Demon King, it's unlikely that we'll ever be able to return to our original world.

"... well."

When I explained it, Maki looked a little unfortunate, but looked more like a blowout and nodded.

The look on my face made me anxious that I might have fooled Maki.

"Sorry about that. Well, don't talk about it properly."

If Maki was working together to get back into the original world, he did something wrong.

I bowed my head honestly.

"Oh, that's rare. I can't believe you apologized to me."

But Maki just laughs at the tease.

I don't even try to take it seriously.

"No, it's you. This is very important.

'Cause, uh... maybe you're gonna die, huh?

Die, I put it in my mouth, and I felt an ominous hunch and anxiety push in.

... really, yeah.

The next battle is not the same as the previous battles.

All this time, I can't do it all by myself.

At least we won't win the battle against the Demon King unless we all try, and not everything from start to finish goes exactly as this one thinks.

And if anything goes wrong with the calculations......

- With someone in this, I may never see you again.

To that idea, the core of the body cools down soothingly.

Until now, I've been too obsessed with both good and bad to take that fact seriously.

For Ena's sake, I think we definitely need to defeat the Demon King.

I didn't mean to take any casualties from the people in town or from my people, and I made plans.

But still, in order to defeat the Demon King, if anything happens to one of my people to die...

But look at me like that, Maki still laughs.

"Not at all. Not now.

I want to help the Knights, and I want to help you, and I think I can't help it if it's dangerous.

….

At least everyone here is ready for it. "

I was told, I noticed.

At some point, there was a bunch of people around me.

From there, the masked magician first stepped forward.

"I have my purpose.

I can't believe we're all here for you. I want you to stop being such a jerk. "

"Southern......"

Suthern tells in a ready voice, as the pitiful appearance of earlier is a lie.

"It's impossible for me, immortal, to die...

In case, no, hundreds of millions, one, that happens, it's a fateful tragedy, unstoppable in people's bodies.

That, so, I mean... oh, I would never just resent you.

Oh, that's it!

Next to Suthern, who bowed back graciously, there was a knife cleverly in his fingerless hand.

Kuma lifts the hand of those who do not have a knife,

- Gu!

I did something thumbs-up.

So you, you don't have a finger, twitched in my heart, but that heart reached my chest.

"... soma"

At the end of the day, the apple.

Apple's face doesn't have an expression even at a time like this, and he stares at me with those clear eyes.

"… I soak soma. For that, I'm here."

That's right.

Apples have no reason to defeat the Demon King compared to anyone in this.

That apple is getting caught up in...

"... no"

But the apple looked at my face, strong for her, and shook her neck wide aside.

"... because I want to. Even if I don't like soma, I'll follow you."

The apple voice that said that is still not very loud.

But there was still a strong will there, and even Tsukiko was unlikely to move.

"Guys..."

Even if they say this, I don't know how to give it back.

I'm embarrassed that I didn't look around.

"It's okay, Soma."

But Maki smiles at me like that.

"At the end of the day, you win if you have love and courage."

It doesn't make any sense, and I don't know what it means.

"You just keep saying things you don't understand."

"Eh! Not as good as that!

But then, it was strange that my heart would calm down.

And

"- You totally agree with that. You have too many things to say and do."

There was such a voice on my back standing up.

"Mitsuki!

When you tell me that the role has been fulfilled and that the purpose has been achieved,

"On the way, I was just asking a few questions.

Everyone believes in you when it gets clogged.

... Now, please put your chest up.

Are you willing to challenge me with such a pungent face, the greatest thing that shapes the fate of the world?

He slaps me in the back and tries to climb straight to the top of the mountain.

"Mitsuki! Are you sure? That, so close to the Castle of the Demon King..."

- I don't even have to answer that.

All I'm saying is, the turning mitzki cat ear moves to invite us a little bit.

As it caught us, we climbed the last path and eventually stood on the edge of the fire escape.

"That's the Castle of the Demon King..."

Beneath your eyes, a downward path leading to a spiral.

And far back, at the bottom of the earth, I saw the majesty of the castle of the demon king.

(Finally, here we are...)

The moment I saw it, the memories so far, frozen ena and the days of special training so far, the appearance of the companions who followed me pushed me to my head all at once.

Just, like, a few seconds.

Bite that carefully,

"Let's go. Defeat the Demon King. And..."

I look back on my people, I declare.

"- Absolutely, let's all come back here!

I'm determined to look at the faces of my fellow apples, Mitsuki's, Maki's, Kuma's, Southern's, and friends.

Best, no, let's do more than that.

And if there's an imminent danger to one of my people, I'll bet on mine, but I'll protect him!

No one in this will die!

Not for Ena, just for my own feelings about wanting to stay with my people.

I made a firm vow.
