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

"I expected it thinly, but it was still a loss of praise"

"... Mm. That's not true."

Walking away from the tower and towards the wreckage of the sky city, the voices of my companions come into my ears from behind.

Looking back slightly, Mitsuki, who looked tired somewhere, was talking to the apple.

"... I won't bother with the bug," he said. Yip, thump. "

"That's, what is it? It's an endless journey."

To Mitsuki's words, the apple grips that little fist forcefully, like one day.

"... Sanori no Michi, too, Yip, from!

"Oh, is that what that meant? Deep inside, or sad no more."

Apple clenched his neck at the impressed, frightened voice back.

"... no. If you don't know, it's fine."

"... Mm. Good luck, huh?

"But if you're taking too long, he's in the original world... Ah"

You thought "Shit" when you remembered before, Mitsuki made the cat ears jump haphazardly and clasp her mouth at first sight.

But there was no change in how the apple looked.

"... dull, no"

With a face with no stray whatsoever, say so.

"Ringo,...?

The apple looked up for fun, amazing enough to pinch the cat's ears, the next moment,

"... Yaku, Soku. You did, because"

A clear gaze captured me for only a moment...

I somehow couldn't stand still, I stuck to the ruins in a way that preceded everyone.

"Yeah, probably around here..."

Although the switch to activate the shortcut is in the sky city, you don't have to go to the sky city if you just want to get inside.

Though buried in the sand and about half buried, when we manage to discover what appears to be an automatic door, we examine its vicinity.

"... this"

What was there was a switch of light that lost the color you were familiar with.

Let the light magic shine on that switch, which is buried in half the sand and almost invisible.

Then the trick reacted quickly and the door next door opened.

"Ok!"

I accidentally gut pose, but this is where it comes from.

"First, I'll give you this"

I finally gave my gathered friends, one by one, a magical gem.

"What is it, this?

Explain to Ena who twists her neck.

"This is Featherfall's top magic, Angelfall's Gem"

I'm falling for something by name, but I wonder if it's okay, except for the cat ear and cat staff naming sense.

If Featherfall is magic that reduces drop speed and drop damage for a certain amount of time, Angelfall is magic that keeps drop speed intact and completely disables drop damage.

The difficulty of obtaining it for that matter was high, but it was among the things I bought in bulk at the tool store.

"After this, I'm going to ask everyone to use a shortcut in Sky City, a device that can travel directly to the depths of Sky City at once.

I just need you to use this gem in advance to do that. "

"Oh, I see! If something happens and you fall, it's tough!

Listening to me, I nodded as Ena was convinced.

Yeah, well, it's normal to think that way.

I wanted to think so, too.

But......

"No, it's not. The shortcut here is also known as" The Door to Heaven (Havens Door) "and" The Floor to Heaven (Angel Ladder) ".

It's not just a name given to a sky city because it's headed over the sky. "

"Could that be..."

I nodded unintentionally at Mayuki's words, which made me think of something I didn't like.

"Oh. The shortcuts here are 'stairs to heaven' in the true sense of the word, when you go down, of course, if you don't even take measures when you go up, you're bound to die."

Sky cities, like other cat ear cat dungeons, have a number of first-sight traps.

So are the nasty monsters rather than vicious, and so are those boss robots that have performed to that horrible point.

But the most important trap in a sky city is that escape device.

No, not just an escape device, but a device that travels with that chavon ball that should be the best ally for the player was the biggest trap in the sky city.

"When we talked earlier, I told you my HP was down more than I thought along the way.

I was wondering if you were tired in a row and didn't have a grasp on HP, but it wasn't. "

Chavon ball-type mobile devices in various parts of the sky city.

That doesn't seem to do any damage to the fall because it moves people around puffy with a chabon ball......

But that was the trap.

Instead, it seems to be forced to treat you during a fall while you're in that chavon ball, and the high and low differences you moved at that time will damage you when you land intact.

"I mean, that damage I didn't grasp is the damage of movement.

Every time I used a mobile device, I had falling damage before I knew it. "

It is a nasty bug that pokes through the gap in your mind that you can't possibly take falling damage because it is floating visually.

Even that moving device on the way is visibly affected by short distance travel.

It goes without saying what happens if you use an escape device that travels a certain distance for a thousand floors of the tower at once.

The attack on a sky city requires "magic or an item to combat falls".

Moreover, it is usually possible to disable the accumulated drop damage by using some "skills with movement", like a mirage of dreams, but it is also not possible to use skills while in a chavon ball.

Rather, it is a matter of uncertainty as to what it means to be safer to jump than to use an escape device.

"But! That's not all that makes sense!

That, when you move up, also takes falling damage!

I don't know the exact calculation of the drop damage because it's a black box, but I'm sure it does proportional damage based on the "high and low difference that traveled during the fall" is the hypothesis put in place by cat ear cat players.

So even if you let the direct travel device to the sky city open, if you didn't take measures, you would die instantly at the moment you used it.

I don't know why you want to say that it's falling (...) damage.

- Scratch player health before you realize it within a sky city.

- Surviving a battle with a fierce boss, the escape device that reached the end of the grief provides sudden death.

- Makes you think it's all over and invites those who used the shortcut without any alarm to the fate of falling death once again.

Maybe, really.

If we'd just tested it like this once, we would've figured it out, wouldn't we?

You guys never used this on yourselves, did you?

And I want to blame him for a little over an hour with a twist.

... but, well, unfortunately, although monsters can't get in, there's nothing better than murdering NPCs.

I've heard a lot about bringing disturbing characters here for a literal ascension experience.

I've never moved to execution, but, oh, this guy's taking me to Sky City right now, many times I thought...

"Uh. So, just before we use that mobility device, should we use this?

Apparently, the black thoughts in my heart had leaked out onto the table.

I nodded to Ena with a tight face somewhere.

"Oh. There's plenty of room for effect time, so just use it a little before you move.

However, as I said earlier, the sky city is in danger, and first I go alone, control the inside, and make sure the escape device is safe... "

I was about to say, Mitsuki and Ringo snap their mouths.

"If it's dangerous, I think you should take me with you."

"... Mm. I'll follow you, too."

- You got it.

I'm confused by the two offers.

The enemy is quite powerful, and I think it's definitely better for me to go alone on issues of forced paralysis and Hate management.

No, of course that's better if you think I'm the only one safe, but if someone gets hurt or dies from a stray bullet, you're not sleeping well...

When you look at it, it's not just mites and apples.

Maki, Susan, and Ena are looking at me with the eyes that I won't pull a step.

This is going to break my bones to convince me.

"... in the meantime, shall we go inside and discuss it"

I lost my hip a little bit, and I decided to postpone my conclusion and run away.

It may be that if I had to, I would look at the gap and go as far as the sky city as one person first.

With that in mind, I stepped into the wreckage of a sky city.

Luckily, should I say, or unluckily?

Within sight, there was no appearance of an enemy.

I can't assume the monster hasn't popped because it's been abandoned for a long time and nobody should be in there.

There's only one group of monsters out here, so you should think they're patrolling another place.

"Okay. From here on out, follow my instructions, no matter what.

And whenever you use a mobile device, whether you have my instructions or not, be sure to use the gem in advance. "

When I said that, they all nodded honestly.

I don't have to feel a little guilty when I think about earlier, but the enemy here is dangerous.

You can't make a sacrifice for this.

"Let's go all at once, this way"

I feel like a sneak mission.

Take all your friends to the deepest part of the SF tick aisle.

That said, this is part of a fallen sky city.

In just over a dozen seconds, we got to where we wanted to be.

"Hmm. Is this the mobile device?"

Because there was no switch on there, the sphere of the machine, which was not yet lit, was rolling on the ground.

I don't know why it's amateur, but from what I've seen, it doesn't look particularly broken.

In the meantime, so far so good.

"Naturally, there doesn't seem to be any tricks around here to move this."

However, of course, you have to switch it on to move this mobile device.

That switch is not here, deep inside a real sky city.

- Well, here's the real deal.

Somehow, I have to go to Sky City by myself.

I opened my mouth, ignoring Mitsuki sending me an inquisitive gaze.

"I'll just say it again, but this time, let me go alone"

That's right. When I cut the fire, my buddies' gaze got worse.

Don't be frightened, continue persuading.

"No, so is the boss, but this time the enemy is much stronger than ever, and besides, he has a lot of troublesome special abilities.

They come out here too, but those guys... "

And that's all I said.

My well-heard ears move tingly, sensing the proximity of beings other than us.

And that, the next moment......

"Nah!"

... not the aisle where the enemy would come, but from my people, like I heard some amazing weird voice, like a cat with something to like in front of it, like a girl with something cute in her eyes, anyway.

"Mitsuki? Did I just say something?

"No, more than that, I'm coming."

Somewhat uninterrupted, but this is one place to compete.

"... I'll go"

Take control of the Mitsukis who set up their weapons and step forward.

"But......!

"Okay. The enemies out here are just like the sky cities and all have special abilities.

Rays are difficult to avoid because they start fast, and forced paralysis can make you unable to move no matter how many abnormally resistant mites you have.

And... "

"Soma!"

A cry that sparked a sense of crisis in Southern.

Seeing, from the corner over a dozen meters, a sloppy shaped robot appeared.

"That guy haha!

Is this guy coming out from the start a hit or off?

I screamed as I ran out toward the robot with the electromagnetic stick (Stanrod).

"Don't move from there until I get back! We're moving right to the sky city!

Don't forget to use the gem before you move, even if it's switched on!

He leaps forward in front of the robot, abusively discarding him.

- You can do it, right?

Ask yourself.

Now I'm getting more offense and speed than I was in the game days, but my endurance is clearly down.

Although the enemy is a miscellaneous fish monster, it is also the bearer of a parameter comparable to that of the last dungeon.

I'm never the kind of person you can underestimate.

Because we haven't even been to Sky City in a long time, this enemy's attack motion is long overdue.

Do I have the strength to just stand around with this guy right now?

"Sinnyusha, Hacken! Sinnyusha, Hacken!

But the enemy couldn't wait for me to come to a conclusion.

He waves down the electromagnetic stick in his hand as he makes a deafening voice.

"Come on!"

Reflectively agnostic, he tries to take it, and then pulls his arm.

Barely avoided by a triple enhanced speed.

- It was dangerous.

I almost forgot about my special abilities at risk and put my ignorance on fire as it was.

I saw a robot swinging a baton trying to do a chase, and just backstep.

Take just a little distance.

"... ugh"

Not if you fight like you always do.

In case you think about it, you can't take an attack unwittingly, and if you're too far away, you could unleash a long-range attack.

I'll be able to dodge it, but in that case, it could hit one of my buddies standing behind me.

"That's tough."

In a game age where there was no danger of death, this degree of handedness would not have been bitter either.

But even this skirmish, no, is such a battle you can afford to think about, so extra, the pressure of death hangs on your shoulders.

"Still..."

I'll do it!

I'll try!

That's my pride as a cat ear cat player!

"Textai Koudo, Kakunin. Kyosei Hi Josie Queensni, Hi Limas"

"Just what I want! If you can do it, do it!

Spitting a prestigious dialogue, I once again stormed toward a robot with a baton.

How many seconds has it been since then?

"Sinnyusha, Haijo!

I keep judging the baton gripped by my left and right arm with a light sword stretching out of my hidden arm on my back, making me say things three times faster.

- It's okay, I'm getting used to it.

Again, triple speed is a big advantage.

Acting in hindsight makes it, and that leads to room in the mind.

When I used the horizontal giraffe, the neck was narrow enough to clog it, but at this rate, I managed to...

... That's how I shouldn't have been distracted.

"Oh, eh...!

When he bounces back, he is taken by a small step on the floor and out of balance.

"If you do it!

It's a gag-like development, but not if you're laughing.

"Soma!"

I can hear apples from behind, but I'm blocking the rays.

Even with her thunderstorm, no cover is possible.

And an electromagnetic baton that will wave down mercilessly.

If I hit it, I'm not just sorry.

"Ko, the ooh!

Activate the skill of the step while forcing your body to wake up.

My body jumps to the side in a painful position, hitting the wall and stopping.

An electromagnetic stick passed right in front of me, trying to lick my body.

"Soma!"

Look behind the aisle only for a moment in a new voice.

There was an apple and a Southern figure running to help me.

"Then, fool, what...!

No, really. Whatever the apple is, what the hell is the Wizard Suthern going to do out front?

In that way, it was the moment when I was only distracted for a moment.

"Kyosei Haijo Sequence, Saishu Processni, Ikou"

From behind, the Word of Worst Sound sounds a voice that should never be heard now.

- Not good!

By the time I thought so, it was already too late.

"Both of you, run......!

sooner than my words are over,

"Sinnyusha - Kyosei, Haijo!!

Beyond the critical point, that robot emits just dazzling light.

"Become!"

"... Huh!?

The light swallowed me, and even the apples and southerns that tried to rush over to me.

"... ha. I knew this was happening."

- The next moment, the three of us stood in front of a giant monolith.

"Huh... Huh? Here, where!? What about the robot earlier?

Suddenly brought to an unrecognizable place, confused Southern.

On the other hand, the apple is rushing over to me and touching his body tightly, wondering if he cares more about my cheapness than the anomalies around him.

"... so I told you not to move"

I didn't mean this, but I can't help it.

Sigh to me, Suthern's stuck.

"Oh, hey, Soma! What the hell happened to this..."

He was sent back to the starting point with his special abilities.

"What? A starting point? That's..."

No, it's settled.

I uttered a dialogue to Suthern about how the situation had not swallowed.

- Welcome to Sky City.
