Kuro no Maou

Episode 377: Rich the Undead King descends!

The final hierarchy of the Rank 3 dungeon, The Catacombs of Resurrection (Revival Catacombe), has a wide circular space reminiscent of Sparda's The Great Arena (Grand Coliseum).

Overall boneless stone construction is common, but unfavorable decorations such as a cylinder with a twisted design like a corner of a bafomet, a rusty iron fence as tsu, and a creepy chimeric stone statue (gargoyle) stand out everywhere. The gloomy atmosphere is excellent.

What awaits there is Rich, the king of undead monsters who currently rule this dungeon.

Appearance is just a skeleton, just like normal skeletons, but to that body, no, the dark magic that holds in a wicked soul is an enormous amount that draws a line with other undead monsters. Rich is basically the type of man who fights with magic because it makes the most of his abundant magic power.

Rich, born this time in "The Catacombs of Resurrection (Revival Catacombe)," is also a class of magicians who hold a dull golden scepter (staff).

Rusty crown, blood-dyed, dos black discolored robes and capes. Purple light swinging to burn, lighting in the dark orbits of the wax. The figure is also as illustrated on the Alliance's monster list.

A well known figure in the world, no exceptional elements, expected and deserved - but still, Rich remains a powerful monster that crowns Rank 5.

Such was he now, with his strong anger, welcoming a certain adventurer party.

"He's rich, no doubt about it."

Before the king of death himself, it is the man in black, and the fairy and the witch who follow him, who stands in disgrace.

Before the Undead Monster Corps, which ended this place as its final line of defense, these three men appeared as lightly kicked as they did in the deserted wilderness.

There are also dozens of heavyweight classes, including Minotaur Zombies and Cyclops Zombies, focusing on lightly over a hundred Skeleton Soldiers. Inside, he even possesses a rich specialty elite zombie that zombied the adventurer who stepped in here and kept his fighting skills intact in his lifetime class.

Even as the Knights stepped in, they had all the strength they could fight more than that - it should have, but it didn't seem to help stop them from walking.

Though he still secretly gives instructions to make him assault behind his back, it would be a fairy that a man, no, is directly exercising his power of command from a faint telepathic reaction, anyway, not donating an undead monster by the battle of lion excitement by the nine warriors she can follow.

Rich's frustration is further increased on his impudent men.

But Rich with a high degree of intelligence thinks. If you defeat this adventurer party and add it to your distribution as a new undead, you'll get a new power that's not even fart, such as the loss caused by this battle. At the same time as the pinch, it is also an opportunity.

Rich hoisted his cane with a dry laugh that rattled the teeth of the caracallas and claws.

They are strong, but not as good as they are. For Rich, it's just annoying because it annoys his own hands. It's just that.

If you shoot Rich's mighty dark magic, Dark Burial (Death Force Blast), that's settled.

"Invoice -"

Would it be a foolish act for Rich, a sorcerer class, to start singing in dignity in front of his enemies? No, if you're a hand-worked adventurer who's come this far, you'll understand. Even without an avant-garde to protect the operator, Rich said there were just measures to fight and win.

That's not one thing, to double triple defenses, traps that you've prepared yourself instead of a dungeon function, etc., are all set for interception.

This is a dungeon, my castle. The interests of the land are in your own hands, and you have the brains to use them.

There's not one thing in case of defeat, etc. - the last thing Rich thought about was nothing, if it's an adventurer party, say it for granted, it was an attack order.

"Let's go, Lily, Fiona - Formation: Reverse Cross (Anti-Cross)"

"Welcome back, Chrono. Congratulations on completing your quest."

At Sparda Adventurer Guild headquarters, Elina celebrated the success and return of the quest with a nice smile. If I were just a receptionist, I wouldn't be thankful for mere stereotypes, but if she tells me I'm a friend, I feel heartfelt.

If Fiona had told me the most, I'd be fooled by the time I felt that way.

"Thanks, it's quick but I want you to show me your next quest"

Leaving aside if I want to order now, I want to keep my eyeballs on early.

Looking back, the Rich Crusade is a huge success. In fact, it was our one-sided game without a struggle. I don't think it took five minutes from the start of the battle to take the 'False Heart (Imitation Heart)' out of the shattered one, transformed into a high-density magic crystal that is a testament to the crusade.

Demon King Mia, Fairy Queen Iris, Black Witch Endymion. If the three protectors are combined, this formation 'Reverse Cross (Anticross)' is no less than a name, and we can bury the Apostle, who is at the mercy of God - it should be.

I fought the Seventh Apostle Saliel twice, but he was always in a state of abatement, and the Eighth Apostle Eye has only seen one attack that seems quite serious. Still measuring how much the apostle has earned.

But still, I finally got enough power to realize that I might be able to defeat him. That progress is significant.

Anyway, if you can exert as much power as you can kill the Apostle, you can't possibly defeat it, like Rich, who is only a low strength in Rank 5.

But would it be more appropriate to have a collaborative technique, no, formations, knitted for anti-apostolic use, whatever, it was somewhat subtle whether this' reverse cross (anticross) 'could be used?

The activation time of "Reverse Cross (Anti-Cross)" was calculated to be up to fifteen minutes, but it was so unstable that the more I actually tried it, I didn't know if it would hold enough.

It is a simple and fundamental problem that neither Lily nor Fiona are yet proficient in exercising new protections.

If there were two riches, it would have been a bit dangerous. After using this one, everyone gets almost down with their magic at the bottom.

That's why I use Lily's me (Simobe). They've fallen into inaction. Our escort is a truly sought after role on the battlefield. If you see how active this quest is, you can rest assured that it will be fulfilled enough there.

Overwhelming Skeleton Soldier and not taking a pull on big opponents such as Minotaur Zombies, there is something to keep an eye out for. If you convert your strength to Adventurer Rank, there must be 3 no matter how low you estimate it. If we also improve our combat experience and gear from now on, we will be equivalent to Rank 4.

After all, is it them with that much spec that's awesome, or is it Lily?

At any rate, we still need training. We need to find someone to practice with soon.

"Hey, Chrono."

As you stream and read a bunch of requisitions marked with a Rank 5 quest, you can inadvertently call from Elina. Is it also a recommended quest?

"You want a date?"

"... Yes?

Salamander's turn (Tsugai) crusade, raising his gaze reflexively from the requisition that says: An offer without too much clapping. But what's right in front of you is a mesmerizing beauty elf smile. I'm laughing, but my eyes look pretty serious.

"That witch interrupted me before, and if you don't promise me soon, I won't be back for a while on the quest again, will I?

"No, that's well, yeah... dating doesn't mean me and Elina are dating, does it?

"I've been thinking too hard, Mr. Chrono. When men and women of their age go out to play alone, that's already a date. I don't care if we're friends or whatever."

Wouldn't it be Elina who has a hard idea? Is that the standard recognition of a sparda?

No, but she's asking me out on a date, and I'm never saying no. I mean, clearly aware of me as a heterosexual...

"Is that a honey trap?

"Say there!? I mean, don't go back to saluting me!

I don't know if boulders bother me when I'm invited straight like this.

"No, I'm sorry. But leave me alone if I can call it a date, and you and I can go out to dinner or play."

"Eh, lie, really!?

"Oh, you're my friend, right?

"Yeah, start with a friend!

Wouldn't really be a honey trap...... anyway, I have no objection to deepening my friendship personally with Elina. Kechi is likely to be worn from Fiona, but for once, it will be fine if you have the mindset to avoid being used unilaterally. It's okay, I'll leave it at that.

"So when are you free? I don't mind now, do I?

I wonder if the job is good, but was it one of the guild's aims to be cordial with the Rank 5 Adventurer? I guess it accommodates a lot, to put it.

It's a very enjoyable system to go out and play publicly, but if you think about it carefully, you can also think of a pattern of entertainment for adventurers who don't even like it.

Am I really delighted... not to be unholy?

"A little from now on. I'm ready for my next quest, and I've got plans."

It's good to go play, but I can't even get much rest. Just because we got a big chance against the Apostle doesn't mean we can never be alarmed.

Well, it was then that I turned the requisition I had at hand at all costs, worried about what to do.

"... sorry, Elina. I'm sorry for the sudden, but can you date me after the next quest?

"What, why!?

Inquiry with a sad look rather than angry at me for suddenly turning my opinions on you. My heart hurts, but I still can't give in, I can't give in. I've got a situation.

"I really need to get this quest over with."

And so I give one request to Elina. I mean, I'm taking orders.

Quest Last Rose Crusade

Rewards - 20 million clans

Until the deadline and spring arrive

Client/Asbel Village Adventurer Guildmaster Jimmy

Request details - Last Rose's nest was opened again this year in the Asbel Mountains. Last Rose is just a habit of waiting for prey to jump in while caged in a cave, so it is not a top priority crusade because there is no harm if you don't get close to it.

However, I sincerely hope that this year will be the year to discuss Asbel's succubus, who has not returned several challengers since his discovery thirty years ago.

"Last Rose Crusade? It's a monster name I've never heard of, but is it something that hasty?

Except that the Crusaders have begun marching, there is no such thing as priority.

"Oh, I really do. Please."

"Yes, unfortunately, I'll wait. Come back as soon as you can, okay?

Therefore, it was challenged to the fourth trial, which bears the name of lust.
