"... I'm dripping"

Haruki's first voice went to Akane's shop. When I saw the sound of Akane's melting, my voice suddenly leaked.

The prefab, heated in the midsummer sunshine, has risen to a temperature where sweating like a waterfall just comes out.

Meanwhile, Akane is lying on the counter as if the body had melted by heat.

The eyes are facing somewhere other than here.

It must be that world.

"Oh Akane. Come back."

“……… Azuki, Jinu”

“…………”

Is it better to start again in the coolest time in the morning?

Seiki sighed, sighing too much of Akane.

"I wanted to see the boss material on the 17th floor ...

"Boss material !? Yes, I'll judge! Put out the item quickly!"

Suddenly, Akane's spine grew.

It seems like the melting point so far is a lie.

Did you hear the boss material boost your vitality?

Both skin and eyes are clearly fresher than before.

"..."

What a cash thing.

It's easy to understand, but Seiki is still a guest of Akane.

If you can do it, you want to do it when you enter the store.

"I thought ... but the attitude of the clerk is bad. Fire lotus, I will quit this shop and go to Sapporo."

"Well, just wait and go to Sapporo!"

"Yes, let's go to Sapporo after a long absence."

"Tccho! Warren, why do you agree !? つ I'm going to betray my teacher !? Keep the air! な ら If you're a disciple, keep the air together!

Bang Bang Bang.

Akane upset her eyes and protested at Lotus.

"" ......... "

No good guy. I have to do something quickly.

No, it's too late.

From the eyes of Seiki and the lotus, the glimmering color disappears.

“… Huh. For now, buy today ’s achievements.”

"Okay!

Were you so happy that you couldn't go to Sapporo?

When Haruki gave up, Akane's face shone shiny.

Looking at her face, Seiki became even more fluent.

"Well, first of all, the deer horn. Is this the boss's horn? It's pretty big. It's going to make a big sword with just one.

"Oh……"

100,000 yen for one place of material is considerable.

This corner was the highest in the history of Haruki's adventurers, excluding materials such as magic irons and hot stones whose prices would increase or decrease with weight.

"Next is a mass of silver, but this is the so-called mythril."

"Oh, have you finally arrived!"

When I heard the word mythril, Seiki's body became hot.

Mithril was a rather famous fictional ore in Japan.

The past tense was "was" because the dungeon produced this mithril since the first stampede.

The characteristic of mythril in Fantazi works is that it resembles silver. Must be tougher than normal iron. And it has the property of being easy to pass through magic.

It's unclear whether Mithril, which can be used in dungeons, is actually magical.

However, because it resembles silver and is tougher than iron, it was named Mithril.

Although Isshiki also handles mithril weapons, the mithril weapons are from the middle class.

The price is the lowest line that can buy a luxury foreign car, and it is a luxury equipment that intermediate adventurers can not afford.

"Weight ... 2,431 grams. I'm buying one gram at a price of 1,000 yen, so that's 243,000 yen."

"Nup !?"

"Gegehoge !!"

Too much for the price that protruded from Akane's mouth, Haruki leaked a twisting voice in the back of her throat, and Fire Lotus coughed.

"2.43 million !?"

"Isn't that surprising, isn't it? That's a surprising thing at the moment. Mithril is the material used for the strongest weapons in the middle class at the moment. If this is a kilo, then in the middle class there are two mithril weapons. One is finished.

Unlike monster materials, the places where you can get them are limited, and only a small amount can be collected. Even if you buy one gram for 1,000 yen, change will come. "

"... I see."

Haruki chewed Akane's words while suppressing the upset.

For the price of two Mithril weapons, you can buy a second-hand house in the countryside.

Indeed, you can buy it for 1,000 yen per gram.

"But I was surprised. No way I could defeat the boss on the 17th floor and get such an expensive mythril ..."

"Mythril could be anywhere, but the drop rate is minimal."

"Does this high material fall even in the upper layer?"

"Yeah, I mean, you put out a magic bag in the upper layer. That's at least 100 million over-the-counter purchase price?

"... That's right."

Haruki was surprised at the price of Mithril and forgot all about it, but the magic bag she holds on the lotus is a high-rare item with a lot of super.

As Akane says, 100 million items appear on the first basement level, so it's no surprise that a 2 million yen item drops on the 17th floor.

In addition, sold to Akane including materials of ordinary species.

Today's achievement was about 1.5 million yen per person.

With this, I can work again without worrying about money for a while.

Seiki left the store with a smile.

To that brilliant,

"Hello, it's been a long time."

A familiar person called out.

A face that combines sharpness and tenderness, dressed in a uniform similar to a military uniform.

The long sword attached to the waist is called Excalibur by many adventurers.

That person is-

`` Masatsuki !? ''

He looked at the surprising fine weather and narrowed his eyes laughing.

*

Van has settled down, leaving Van to go shopping for food.

However, when he saw the fallow lands spread across the road, Van blew away to oblivion about his purchase.

"... what?"

Masatog, a brave man equipped with armor, was standing on fallow land.

(... illusion?)

Shaking his head and blinking, the man standing on the fallow land did not change from Masatog to another person.

(No, but why Masatog, the brave man who works in Tokyo, is in K town in Hokkaido?)

There was also armed air before Masatugu.

A man who has recently become an intermediate adventurer.

The air, unlike normal, did not infest the body with grass and insects.

They are checking their equipment while exchanging words lightly to see if their faces are the same.

There is a nice atmosphere, but Van had a good idea of what they were going to do.

"... a match, but nothing ..."

"Hello. Do Van's also I came to see Shoji and the air of the game in the mood?"

「――Tsu !?

Suddenly, Van was surprised at the heart.

When I noticed, right next to Van, there was an Isshiki clerk-Akane Yuzuki.

She smiled so that 8.9 out of 10 could be mesmerized.

I didn't even notice when I was in time.

Van shakes his head without revealing the surprise.

This is a coincidence.

"... Is that person right with Masatogu?"

"Yes, that's right. It's a true and authentic hero, Masatog."

"... What is Masatogu and the air?"

"It's a bit, and I want to know.

"...?"

"Because you can see where Masatog and the air fight? I can't see where adventurers usually fight. If you look at this battle, you will know what kind of gear you need and it will be very helpful "

"……So that's it"

Van had met the woman several times because Aerial leader Kagemitsu had signed a contract with Isshiki.

She is a woman who responds politely or sloppyly, and changes her complexion.

She is currently wearing thick skin, but she has stripped the skin and exposed her to abuse.

It's hard to tell which van is the real Akane, or a bad van.

But I know what's in her core.

She is more inquisitive than anyone else in dealing with armor.

She gets along with a variety of adventurers, and by obtaining various kinds of information, she constantly thinks about what kind of gear to use and what kind of gear to recommend to adventurers.

The proof is that there is almost no loss in the armor she has looked at.

Even if she recommends an unintended armor for the buyer, when she dive into the dungeon, she can find out, "Why did she recommend this armor?"

To that extent, the woman's choice is sharpened.

Contrary to her personality, Van relied on her skill.

"Watching ... it should end soon"

"Well, how about that?"

Uhufu and Akane smiled meaningfully.

Van does not understand the meaning and leans his head.

Masatog is one of the strongest Japanese adventurers.

In fact, he and his team members continue to update their highest reach in Japan's toughest dungeon, Shinjuku Station.

The hierarchy reached is deeper than any dungeon.

I will play against such a person, albeit a mock.

Van couldn't seem to think that at most an intermediate adventurer could meet the best adventurers.

"Oh, it looks like it's starting."

"Hmm……"

Inspired by Akane, Van concentrated on the witness of Masatog and the air.

As I imagined, imagining the air that succumbs to Masatog's attack ...

*

Why did this happen ...

While muttering the words in his heart repeatedly, Haruki was preparing for the match.

The beginning of the thing is the appearance of Masatog.

That brave Masatog appeared in K town.

It's a celebrity! Although he was warm and warm, Seiki was suddenly cold with his words "Let's practice."

No, no. Isn't that what I want from you? When…….

Yeah. You can only see the future that knocks out with a single shot. When…….

Seiki tried to reject the match with Masatog, but when she noticed, the lotus was far away and she was in spectator mode.

Leah quickly got off her bag and straddled Esta to the fire lotus.

"Cho, wait! Why are you leaving?"

"(Pretend)"

Leaf is shaken by Bye and Rare, and Haruki stands out stunningly.

I hear their silent voice (do not get us involved).

Behind the mask, Haruki bleeds tears.

I thought I was a friend!

This miserable person !!

"Let's do it!"

Masatog brave smiles with a refreshing smile.

Even with such a face, Seiro's ears only hear "Let's kill".

"Why me .... There are many stronger people."

"It's also my job to pull up the trailer. I heard from the rain, but it seems to have done a pretty good move."

Does he want to fight Seiki, or why?

Certainly, Seiki fought against the rain.

However, Seiki never thinks he has done a good job.

Rain was the opponent when it was said to be undefeated in the interpersonal match.

For her, Haruki would have been only as good as the wood.

He said he made a good move. Did she really say that?

Seiki twists her neck.

"I'm not at all"

"Well, don't say that. Working with an adventurer is also a good experience."

"I agree"

That's true.

If you imitate the battle with Masaguts, as if you had fought with a rainstorm, you may be able to reach another height.

Especially now, Seiki doesn't move as he wants.

I also felt a bit of a dead end, as my skill growth was worse than with Lotus.

A match against Masatog might be a breakthrough for the situation.

Yes, Seiki changed her mind.

We rent fallow land from Kitora and check equipment.

Apart from Seiki, Masatogu was taking out equipment one after another from a rather large magic bag.

Light shield in the light armor in the Azure. The same armor that he saw someday.

The only difference is the weapon.

He had a black wooden stick, not an Excalibur.

"Ahhhh"

"Hmm?}

"Do you fight with wooden sticks?"

"Oh, yeah, I. Kamen can use his own weapons."

"Well, isn't it dangerous?"

"It's okay. This tree won't break."

He is holding a branch of the material of the Lord of the Dungeon in Kamuikotan.

Van took all the thick ones, but only the twigs remained.

Even though it is a twig, it is thick enough not to shake.

The length is about 1 meter.

About the same length as his main weapon.

Certainly, if it is a dungeon lord's material, it will not break easily even if cut and tied.

But that's not all.

Seiki notices that Masatog's branch of a dark giant tree is lightly minded.

He reinforces the branches with care to prevent them from breaking even if they are seriously cut.

If you use ordinary materials, you will not be able to pass it.

There is no doubt that he chose a branch of a dark giant tree. It's because you have the energy.

The flow of energy is very natural and gives a high level of skill.

(After all, Masatog can usually use his mind ...)

Seiki was not surprised that Masatog could take care of it.

Intermediate adventurer Seiki is still using it.

It is natural that Masatog, an adventurer who has the highest ability, can use it.

Alternatively, morale may be an essential force for acting as a senior adventurer.

Strengthened the branches of the Dark Giant Tree with power.

Seiki understands that she intends to use it seriously as a weapon.

At the same time, Masatog thinks about the difference in ability between the two ...

Haruki recalls his skill tree, which he had previously seen in Chikaho.

In all aspects, Masatugu surpasses Seiki.

Even Seiki who can freely assign skill points does not reach the feet of Masatog who can not assign points.

(Now how to fight ...)

Thinking there,

“…… click”

Haruki realized the direction of her thoughts and laughed.

(Why am I thinking about how to beat Masatogu?)

Seiki is an intermediate adventurer.

On the other hand, Masatogu is an advanced, top.

I can win.

It is reasonable to face it, assuming you are going to borrow your chest and lose it.

When I noticed it, my shoulders came off at once.

After all it seems that he was a little enthusiastic.

As he lost his power, Seiki's concentration increased naturally.

Weeds bathed in the sunset.

A wind that plays with leaving traces in the grass.

The horizon where the dark green of the forest touches the sky.

A rising cloud.

Mountain blue.

Akane in the sky.

Cloud shadows.

Haruki's consciousness traces each frame.

Look ahead.

Masatog is ready.
