Legend

in a room with a nucleus of dungeons, approached before.

As we approach there, tension rises even if some of the Rays respond or not.

Still, it is probably due to previous experience that it should be regarded as moderately nervous, rather than too nervous to be able to move.

Johanna and the others, who kept Vihera and Rodos, stayed further away... where they were transferred by Grimm.

(You were right to leave Johanna and the others over there)

Ray shrugs inside as he grips the Death Size and Dusk Spear.

I feel a little but sweaty at this point in the palm holding the pattern.

That also came from the tension of challenging the silver lion, but also from the fact that at the same time we could not regain the consciousness of Vihera without beating the silver lion.

(Win. Whatever)

Focusing his consciousness again, his hand rests inadvertently on Ray's shoulder.

Enemy for a moment!? I thought it was Ray, but soon I understood that was Elk's hand and exhaled.

"Calm down. If you're that nervous, the rest of them won't be able to fight in peace. You're the leader of this party."

"... what? Me?

In Elk's words, Ray gives a windy look like he was told something unexpected.

In fact, Ray had no idea that he was the leader of this party.

That's why I thought it would be better for faces like Elk and Marina, who have more experience than I do, to be leaders.

"Of course not. In the first place, it was Ray who made this possible."

"No, so it's nothing. You don't even need me to be the party leader. Even in terms of experience, elks and marinas are better…"

"That's okay. It's our call that Ray lead this party....... hey?

"Right."

A marina with an elk gaze nods with a grin on her mouth.

"Ray needs to keep up the good work as an adventurer. That's about right, isn't it?

"Mm-hmm. I agree with Marina."

The marina is followed by Elaine, who also nods, and faces like Min and Ara, who naturally nod back.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

And Seto, are you happy Ray is being praised or throats.

(I'm not being praised for anything else.)

I'm glad that I'm still appreciated while I think that way about Seto's condition.

I have a spear of dusk, so I gently stroke Ceto with the back of my hand, not the palm.

I see Ray like that, and there's a grin on the faces of the others.

By stroking Ceto, the tension that was in the ray also gradually disappears.

That's how I kept walking again...... eventually I could see the room of destination.

Even though he says he hasn't been inside the room yet, he still feels intense pressure.

(I don't think I felt any pressure like this when I came to this dungeon before... maybe because I understand that there's a silver lion in there?

It was Ray whining inside, but still doesn't change what needs to be done in the end.

In front of the room, Ray opens his mouth just for final confirmation.

"Okay? When the silver lion roar comes, deal with it yourself. If you really can't fight the roar, get out of the room after you get the roar, recover, and then go inside again. The same goes for injuries."

Neither does Ray think that everyone will be spared the Silver Lion fight unharmed.

If so, if there are some injuries still, there was no doubt that the best way to do so was to get out of the room, which is a safety zone, and recover if there were any injuries that would interfere with the fight.

"I'll leave the potion here, so you can use it if you think your injury is a problem"

That's what I tell you, Ray gets the potion out of Mystering one after the other.

Most of them were potions that could be purchased in guilds, but some of them were made from world-tree materials, so that they could finally be purchased by sending out light gold coins.

A potion that could not regain the consciousness of Vihella, but still has the effect of being able to treat it instantly if it is a normal serious injury.

On the contrary, even if the hands and feet were severed, it would also be possible to connect them using this potion.

Elk and Ming gaze at the fact that potions with so much effect were so easily removed.

I know Marina has seen Ray use the world tree potion by mouth on Vihera and Elaine and Arla have a long relationship with Ray, so they don't imitate it sparingly even in scarce potions on such occasions.

"Oh, man. Are you sure about this?

"Oh, no problem. If you lose to a silver lion because of what I've done with the potion, it's gonna be a little hard to take back."

Nodding at Elk's words, Ray opens his mouth again.

"Well. Looks like they're waiting for us over there... time to go"

With such Ray's words, everyone switches consciousness from the matter of potion to the crusade of the silver lion.

And what Rays saw entering the room where the silver lion was, as its name implied, a lion with silver hair.

Even from Ray's eyes, who is accustomed to seeing a ceto of a size exceeding two metres in length, the figure is obviously huge.

Even if you pull out the tail, there are around four meters twice as long as Ceto, and as a lion, a long tail would be about six meters long.

A rich hyena is around his face, indicating that he is a male lion, and this one is also silver, as the name suggests.

Exactly the kind of beauty you deserve to call yourself King of the Beast.

The space where the silver lion is located is large enough to move around even if it is about six meters long.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr"

Is the sound similar to Seto's because it still has something in common: a lion?

(Most of all, in Ceto's case, the only lion is the lower body.)

Great beauty, beauty, unusual. Various words pass Ray's back of his brain, but he still realizes he's not that nervous.

When you're okay, you're sure you can use your powers. Such certainty.

It's not just Ray,

There is no way that Elaine, Marina, Elk, and Minn were frightened in front of silver lions each with their own weapons to boost their will, neither Ceto, who do not need weapons, nor nearly triple their own. But...

……

In the sense of not uttering words, it's the same as the Rays.

But what Ara was holding was definitely awe.

I have seen many times that Ara should be afraid.

So would Elaine, for example, and the likes of Ray, Seto, and Elk.

I've seen other similar beings... but for Ara like that, a silver lion was not a decent opponent to stand up to.

I don't know, my legs, my hands, my body trembles.

If you stay in front of a silver lion, you lose your life.

I had instinctively guessed it.

"Gaaaaaaaa!"

Not like a few seconds ago, a silver lion squeal.

As soon as she heard it, Ara slipped her hips and went into the ground.

"Ara, you need to wait outside the room for a moment. And when your body moves, join the fight."

Ray was festived as a party leader, but I still know what I need to do.

Word because I understood that even if I forced Ara to join the battle now, she would just be killed by a silver lion.

If Elaine were to participate in the battle, she would have participated in the battle even if she was willing to.

But for Ara now, who preceded the silver lion, that was an impossible event.

... Word is bad, but if this thing meant regaining Elaine's consciousness, Ara would have been able to fight the Silver Lion with no problems at all.

It doesn't mean Ara doesn't like Vihera, of course.

But still, for Ara, Elaine and Vihella are not worth it.

"Oh, I see."

Shivering her voice, Ara falls back.

With such a look at Ara, the Rays step forward.

"Let's go."

Ray mutters and simultaneously activates the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor...... each moves simultaneously.

"Gaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Silver lions roar as if to restrain the movements of the Rays.

At the same time, Seto also unleashes a roar by activating the king's intimidation while stepping on the spot again.

Usually, a king's intimidation with the ability to seal the opponent's movements.

But Seto's roar could not even antagonize the roar unleashed by the silver lion, and had only a degree of effect that weakened the power slightly.

Still, I can tell you how fortunate I was to have weakened the power of the roar.

Thanks to Ray's use of the Flaming Emperor's red armor, the roar had little effect.

The Elks also succeed in attenuating the roaring power of the Silver Lion while each uses some means.

own power, magic, magic items, power of the Spirit......

Using those powers, although I couldn't completely deactivate the roar, I would put it in a degree of damage where there was no obstacle to moving on to the next action.

"Flying slaughter!

The first one released was a blow Ray is good at.

Level five, an extraordinarily more powerful skill than before... Neither does Ray naturally expect that blow to work against a silver lion.

It is a silver lion with strong resistance to magic and slaughter. Flying slaughter now only has a strong connotation of restraint.

With this blow, you just have to turn a little bit of interest against Ray.

That's what I thought. It was a blow...

"Grrr!"

No way, it was a totally unexpected reaction for Ray to just wipe the flying slaughter blade off his tail lightly.

(Shit, I knew this hand attack wouldn't work... but still, I didn't know a tail blow would prevent this easily)

It's troublesome.

That's what I said, Ray, but it's still an unmistakable fact that the blow now succeeded in letting the silver lion take action, even for a moment.

In that momentary gap, each of the faces besides Ray had moved on to his own actions.

Elk packs a distance from the silver lion with the thunder god axe in his hand, Elaine wields the mirage in a whip to restrain the movement of the silver lion, Marina uses spiritual magic to knock the shockwave of the wind into the silver lion, Minn casts a spell, Seto rises to the sky with his wings winged.

Ray confirms the behavior of everyone like that, then goes forward.

Even Ray, the last to act, arrived in front of the Silver Lion, the earliest of his allies, because it was a move that left the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor unfolding.

"Ku La Huh!

A Death Size Strike, maximizing physical capability with Flaming Emperor's Red Armor.

The Great Sickle, enchanted with magic, may be waved as if to prune the life of a silver lion, as its name suggests... with the tall metal noise of Ginn, bounced by the body hair of a silver lion.

"Huh!?

Unexpectedly screaming, Ray exploits the momentum of being played the Death Size and protrudes the dusk spear of his left hand against the face of a silver lion as he rotates on the spot.

But the tip of the protruding twilight spear only hits the forehead of the silver lion and makes the tall metal sound echo around again.

At the same time he felt something coming at him, Ray leaped aggressively... momentarily, he was severely shocked and blew away as he was.

"Grr!"

Even as he lands on the floor twisting himself in the air, he slips and moves several meters with his foot on the floor due to the power of a blow from a silver lion.

Setting up Death Size and Dusk Spears while re-establishing attitude, but no pursuit comes.

I immediately understood why that was.

Because Elk had arrived under the silver lion shortly after Ray was blown away and was waving down the thundergod axe.

A silver lion who quickly twists himself and dodges the axe of the Thunder God waved down with all the Elk's might.

A shock wave of marina wind released there as a restraint and a whipped Mirage blow of Elaine is knocked in.

However, the silver lion stares at the elk without moving, even though he says that the attack to that extent is not worth dodging.

(I knew an attack other than a blow wouldn't work, but no way a magical Death Size blow...... that doesn't even work with the Flaming Emperor's Red Armor? You're too bad quality for a joke)

As it stands, only Elk with the Axe of the Thunder God is alerted by the Silver Lion.

That would be because the silver lion instinctively understands that a blow with the thundergod's axe can do damage to him.

I mean, if you're only alert to elk, you can't lose, and yes, the silver lion thinks.

Ray breathes small, even though he feels dull pain in his ribs with an earlier blow of a silver lion.

"I will tell you that your thoughts were wrong...!

With Death Size and a spear of dusk in his hand, he stepped on the floor to fill his time with a silver lion at once.
