Kuro no Maou

Carla Mara's strongest party, the Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn), had unfortunately demonstrated its strength and experience and was stepping into the third tier faster than anyone else.

An unusual boss placement on top of being in a runaway state. Even more so such as the blockade of passages that should be able to pass...... even though it is an unusual offensive environment, they have determined the optimal route and have proceeded.

Although he was a proud Zenongart who had stepped through two tiers at an overwhelming rate compared to other adventurers who started from the first tier.

"Hmm, were they ahead of us?"

There was a rival in front of us who was fully armed and held back their way.

"You're still here, Zenongart"

"I didn't know you'd be down here in this short time, it's a boulder"

One is a sorcerer dressed in white and blue robes and the other is a knight in an armor helmet.

I recognize the two faces and I also know they are brothers.

"'Atlas Wind'? Well, I didn't know you were going to make a start during the offense."

In Carlamara, the Rank 5 party is "Atlas Wind," competing for the No. 2 seat after "Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn)".

This party boasts a huge record of seven complete attacks, a solid strength and track record that everyone acknowledges, but it was nothing short of being in the Great Labyrinth on the day Xenadu's will came before Xenongarto.

I found out about the will broadcast on the second tier just on my way back and immediately turned my heels back to re-attack.

Few adventurers, like them, have the advantage that they were in the Great Labyrinth on the day of the will, coincidentally.

Most of all, only a limited number of people are equipped with enough power and equipment to challenge the attack as it is to the deepest point. And this' Atlas Wind 'was one of the few parties that went hand in hand.

"As you can see, we're almost there. If I wanted to, I'd have gotten to Xanadu before you did."

Behind the brothers, the invisible party members, who do look worn out, refrain in a state of war.

Even if we don't return to the ground once, we have several means of replenishing it if it is a Rank 5 party.

In this third tier, weapons factories and magic workshops run by various forces, like farms, exist only marginally. Running into such a place would also make it possible to replenish it with tsutes and gold.

"But we were waiting for Temei. You know why?

"Pfft, you made a stupid choice. I didn't know you'd stand up to me on purpose."

"Sure, you may be imitating something stupid... but we have our pride. As an adventurer, as a man. Xenongardo, if we don't defeat your Golden Dawn, we can't name Carla Mara's best adventurer!

My brother, the sorcerer, who sets up the scepter (staff) of the Holy Silver (Mithril), where already a high density of magic resides.

Members of The Golden Dawn (Golden Dawn) also increase their will to fight for signs that it is not strange for advanced attack magic to fly in the next moment.

"Ha ha, I can't believe I can fight you here. I was just bored, and I'm thankful!

"Master Zeno's enemies, I will not tolerate them. Be prepared!

An avant-garde Iran and Senna step forward and stare at 'Atlas Wind' directly in front.

When it seemed that a one-touch, no, party duel had already been established between each other.

- Back off, Iran, Senna.

"Yeah, why?

"So, but it's dangerous!

"Just back off."

There is no third time, and just in temper, the two of them fall silently.

Instead, Zenongart flipped the red cloak on its back and stood in front of the 'Atlas Wind' with dignity and singleness.

"Bet your pride, that willingness and goodness to challenge me. Atlas Wind, let's admit it, you guys."

"Heck, you sound great, you harem bastard."

"So, what do we do, Zenongart? You don't want me to surrender?

"Pay tribute to that adventurous foolish savage, and I'll deal with him right away."

When Xenongarto raised his hand safely, all the women in the party members began to fall off the spot a lot.

It is clear that you intend to fight alone.

"How much did you lick us and get cancer? You've got to be cool with that. That's great."

"You were the one with the stupid barbarism, Xenongarto. I'm sorry, one or all of us, but we're not gonna forgive you."

"Oh, call me as hard as you can. It's an honor, and what you're about to see is my true power."

Already, there is no point in listening to the words of Zenongart, but there is an attacking magical light at the tip of the magician's wand.

At the same time, his brother's knight rushes out with his special martial arts and reinforced magic from his allies, each of the other members launching an attack that he is prepared to defeat in one blow.

Karamara's leading rank five party, its all-powerful attack was directed at just one Zenongart, and its immense power was about to burst, the moment.

- Let me show you the power of the Demon King.

A golden light swallows everything from Zenongart.

We stepped down to the third tier, the Industrial Zone (Factoria), and we hid in the shadows first and foremost.

"Dace full of golems......"

"It's a great number."

"He's a strict warner."

Is it still under the influence of stampede, or before, a different digit golem from when I came to get My Mai is swarming around the place.

Besides, is the phantom sky fixed in the night setting, blurry and moonlit cloudy night sky, very dark. To Omake, I don't know if it's thin and foggy or factory exhaust, but the ground is also thin and smoky, and my vision is good.

Fortunately, since this area is lined with lots of buildings just like the first tier, is it essential for a shield to hide itself?

Factories and facilities like those rigorously guarded by rubber golems are not so much dark as brilliant white magical lights. Since there are many light sources, it also feels like a city at night.

"In the meantime, let's get some rest for today"

I don't know, it's been a whole day since I dived into the Great Labyrinth.

Wouldn't it be a pretty good pace because we reached the third tier in one day, even under the harsh circumstances of a race competing with numerous rivals, on top of being in a runaway state?

I think the target Sariel is going further, but he's not even going to the wack where he pushes to go.

I still have to let Leki and Ursula rest properly.

"Avoid the safe zone and make the right place a camp"

We're a good group.

Safe zones would be either already used by other adventurers or trapped and waiting.

There are so many buildings here that it is difficult to see from monsters and adventurers alike.

Besides, if I keep an eye on him all night, he'll be fine when he's around.

When I dive into the Great Labyrinth, I decide not to sleep until I get out of here. There is no great difficulty if you stay up all night for a few days or so. Although it is suspicious after more than a week.

"Ugh, I still feel kind of bad, Dace"

"Watch, take turns on the way?

"Never mind. Rest tight when you can. We're going to try the fourth tier, so we both need to be in good condition."

With that said, we go on holiday, defining a place like the attic of a half-destructed house as a resting point.

Fire can also be set ablaze in places like this, but I can manipulate Black Flames (Hellflame) and Ursula can manipulate simple fire attributes in General Theory, so I don't actually have a problem with the means to warm my meal.

Hmm, I knew having a warm meal would calm your heart.

Oh, my God, I sipped my own warmed tea and revealed the night watching the two lovely sleeping people.

"- Again, stay set at night"

The next morning, we begin our Great Labyrinth attack of the day looking at the cloudy night sky, where the sun will never climb.

"Maybe we're around here somewhere."

"Brilliantly far from any boss room."

Spread the map before you leave for an operational meeting.

Leki kept an eye on him. Because she can't read the map.

"If there's anything else you want, it's a stronghold of other forces."

This third tier 'Industrial Zone (Factoria)' also has production bases created by people, like farms on the second tier. Of course, where ancient factories and production facilities remain, Carla Mara's industrial production is responsible.

However, this hierarchy is also more dangerous for monsters than the top two, so tighter security is consolidated at any base.

Now, there are several locations in the base that have entrances leading to the next fourth tier.

"Because of this situation, security would be tighter than usual everywhere. If we can infiltrate it, we can make money."

"If you heard about the legacy at the base, it wouldn't be strange if you were blinded by greed and abandoned the base and headed for the offensive."

Well, if you can start from the beginning with a third tier, you have a bigger advantage than anyone else. There's a good chance there's someone out there who's betting on their dreams about getting huge treasures.

"Well, let's explore other hubs first if there's anything thin about it"

That's the kind of wack, aim for the nearest base.

According to the information on the map, that seems to be the base of Silverian Familia. If you're going to infiltrate hard, you don't have to be too heartbroken, you're a hostile force.

A little over 500 meters at a straight distance, but the golem's vigilance net is quite severe. I was framed for laying a little battle over and over again.

"I thought you were putting a golem in all these corners."

We're blocking the road.

"Hey! It's Death coming from behind!

There was no alarm or gap.

Golem puts his guard's eyes all over the place, depending on the quantity, and many troops patrol.

Fortunately, many of them patrol the road at the platoon size of ten aircraft formations, so as soon as they are discovered, if they can strike a preemptive strike, they can also be terminated before there is any noise.

If I plug the direction of progress with the Black Wall, with Leki, the annihilation will be complete.

Ursula has a bad drain effect on the golem system, so she's in charge of the elementary guy that emerges like an accidental hit.

Then, what matters plain is sky vigilance.

"Shit, you're flying again..."

What makes a faint noise and flying low through the night sky is a small flying golem.

Parts like crystal eyeballs stand out, it's called "Fly Eyegolem," but from me, I just think it's a drone.

Attack ability is enough to unleash low-level attack magic like harassment, but the trouble is reconnaissance ability to fly through the sky and look for enemies. Naturally, if we discover the enemy, we will call nearby Golem troops.

"Ursula, I asked you"

"Leave it to me."

I leave it to Ursula at times like this because I risk being noticed even if I destroy it poorly and make a sound.

Anastasia's materialized (materialized) hand drags it down to the ground as it grips as it catches a drone golem in the air.

Now I can destroy it almost silently.

"Almost there"

After a much more tense move than yesterday, I finally see my target base.

For surveillance, or is the surrounding building being deliberately destroyed? In the middle of the further landing on all sides, I could see a factory, a building like this, no matter how long the chimney stood.

Carefully, there is also a flag on the main entrance indicating Silverian.

"It's dangerous to get close to the detour... why don't you climb over there and see how it goes"

There's a building just like a high-rise apartment nearby, and if you go up to the roof, you're going to be able to see the whole factory.

I didn't see any monsters in this area other than the Golems' alert range or the naturally occurring elementary.

We just walked into the building, and we ran up to the roof.

- Wait, there's someone here.

On the verge of opening the door leading to the roof, I notice signs.

I haven't heard a word or footsteps in particular, but I'm sure there's more than one person on the roof.

Was there a client who thought the same thing about us?

Now, when I started thinking about what to do,

"Hey, Ash. I didn't expect you to catch up. I don't know if I stopped by too much."

"Oren."

It was Oren who opened the door chattering completely unguarded and came out.

I'm not used to seeing real gear dressed in a black outfit like a ninja, but Faith, a hella smiling pretty girl, is definitely him.

I would have gone a different route, but I didn't know we could rendezvous here.

"You're here for Silverian stronghold, too?

"Oh, we were just so close."

"I've wasted my legs. In the meantime, you'll see."

Apparently not here.

Oren prompted us to step on the roof.

On the roof stands the people so that the people he leads remain silent and perimeter alert. Some of them looked like the usual twins.

I don't even look at this one. Leave them alone, and I look down at their factory spreading beneath my eyes.

"What are you, already attacked?

There was nothing when I saw it from the ground, but from above, it was just collapsing in the middle of the factory.

From what I've seen, there's no sign of people.

"No, I destroyed myself. They blocked the entrance because they came through."

If you look closely, you can see under the rubble something like a large round shelter inlet.

It's blocked by a thick shutter and won't even freak out to the point of attacking it a bit.

"Can't you open it?

"Maybe, I can't. I need to be good enough with ancient magic to manipulate monolith."

Well, I'm not sure, but I know I can't. It's ancient magic.

"What's Oren going to do?

"A little further away, there's a base in Xanadu, so I'm going to use that one"

Let me help you.

"Thanks. I've been keeping my guard tight over there, so it would help if I had backup."

I'm glad they didn't say no.

This opens the way to the fourth tier by hitchhiking.

"Is it okay to attack Zanadu Treasury?

"Because that's where the eldest daughters are. My second daughter, my third son and a few executive officers are connected... but I don't think it matters anymore when this happens."

You're willing to take it, Oren.

Well, if you don't, we're in trouble, too. For a peaceful life.

"Well, let's go"

Accompany Oren's ninja-style party to advance through the third tier.

Hitting and changing with us, they used their magic to deceive the eyes of golems and drones, and proceeded crisply.

Not only was it just a flash or smokescreen, but it felt like some kind of telepathy to get off or stop the golem movement... but I guess there's still a lot of magic and moves I don't know about.

In shame, we reached our destination base with little to no fighting.

"Hey, isn't that more of a fort than a factory?"

"I told you, he's a bee on security."

You're too rattled...... normally the walls surround all sides, and a large defensive tower stands, giving the perimeter a glimpse.

Several armed men can confirm it on the walls.

It's a fine military base.

"They say we have three times as many men to take down the castle, but obviously we're less than a third of them."

"Oh, does it feel like Ash also goes through military law? I guess I'm out of a good place."

"You don't care where I come from. How can you attack a fort like that?"

"We'll infiltrate, so Ash and the others can make a noise on the surface."

I see, you mean a positive role.

Rather than infiltrating, it is the right role.

"There are three of us. I can't get too much attention."

"It's enough for the guys at the front gate to be distracted. Shoot me in from afar, even with magic."

"If that's okay, I'll be fine."

"If it's dangerous, don't worry about us, you can run away."

"I won't abandon my client that easily. You're an adventurer."

Thank you, and it is Oren who says with a poor smile like a maiden.

Is he really a man? Isn't it a fake character with a man because of circumstances?

"Well, I'll be there."

"Oh, we start the attack in ten minutes"

We have a deal. It's bad for the Zanadu treasury guys, but let me attack you in the mood.
