Let's Manage The Tower

(13) Investigation

Alisa and the other three cadets quickly headed for the 41st floor.

Thereafter, until we aim for the 42nd layer, it will remain the same.

Investigate the route to the transfer gate and the surrounding monsters.

It was a pleasant miscalculation that Alisa and the others increased the number of investigations from a different perspective than up to the 41st floor.

At least, it was more realistic than just the perspective of the examiners.

From the viewpoint of the assistant, which is based on the combat ability of the two cheats, there is something missing.

While doing so, the examiners arrived at the transfer gate to the 42nd floor.

First of all, whether Alisa sees the arrival hierarchy of the three cards.

Incidentally, only the initial state, that is, the first layer, was displayed when we arrived at the forty-first layer.

This is to check if it is reflected on the card when going to the 42nd layer.

In conclusion, the number of floors reached on the card was updated after passing through the transfer gate to the 42nd floor.

It was now confirmed that the card would be renewed as soon as it passed through the transfer gate to the higher levels.

Next, what happens if you go from the 45th floor to the 46th floor with the card now showing the 42nd floor?

If the card has been renewed only when it simply passes through the transfer gate in the tower, it should be renewed to the 46th floor.

However, this is not the case when shortcuts are made for each of the five layers.

In that regard, it has been confirmed that the card has not been renewed.

"Now, are we done getting Cecil and Alisa to come over and check on us?

That's what Kaiseki said after checking Cecil and Alisa's cards.

"I see. So, is the next time you check the 45th floor?"

It was Cecil who confirmed the examination.

"That's right. Could you two just wait a minute and stop attacking more than the 43rd floor?

"Yes, sir. Until Kouske and the others attack, I will investigate the lower levels."

"Oh, I see. Maybe that's fine. Well, I don't think we're going to have to wait that long to get to the 45th floor."

The three people, excluding Mitsuki, smiled bitterly at the words of the examiner.

There is still a slight deviation in the feeling of studying to say such things lightly here.

Normal tower tactics take more than a week at a time.

Of course, there are times when you end up scraping the lower level according to the level of the attacker, but this is normal operation at any level in the case of examinations.

The current hierarchy ranges from the middle to the top, but there is no adventurer who breaks through this hierarchy at this speed in the first place.

Even though we are attacking according to the general level, it is only our "intention".

Having said that, now that I've earned the Guild's cause, it's likely that I'll leave my weight behind.

However, it also depends on the work of others.

Alliances with only one prominent party are noteworthy, but not as effective in the sense of great influence.

Cecil and Alisa, who broke up with the examiners, returned to the fortieth floor alone.

To transfer from there to the entrance to see the Alliance as soon as possible.

As long as they have the strength, there is no problem just going back to the 40th floor.

Nevertheless, it took about three days because the means of transportation were on foot.

It seems to be faster than the tactical speed of the examiners, but it is not surprisingly fast because there is only a substantially one-layer journey.

When Cecil and Alisa reached the first tier at the Transformation Gate, they didn't stop at the Tower Strategies Alliance, so we still haven't noticed that the two of them who just signed up have already attacked the 41st tier.

Neither of them dared to make noise at the moment, so they returned to their guild without saying anything.

Cecil and Alisa, who returned to the "Fang of the Wolf" Alliance, just met the Romans.

No matter how big the building is, as long as you live in the same building, you will face each other frequently unless you go on expeditions.

Similarly, Roman, who found Alisa, narrowed his expression a little and approached Alisa.

Looking at the expression, Alisa realized that Roman wanted to hear something.

When I was a trainee, I had the look I had seen many times.

At this point, you can also get a sense of what you want to hear at this time.

Rather, it will only be about the examiners.

The Roman approached Alisa thinking of that, and opened his mouth.

"Dr. Alisa, what kind of adventurer is this Kou?

During the welcoming party, the examiner introduced himself under the name "Kou".

Alisa answered Roman's question with a few thoughts.

"To continue as an adventurer, I told you to keep an eye on your opponent's strengths.

Whether the opponent is a person or a monster, if we do not discern at a glance what the opponent is capable of, it will lead to immediate death.

For this reason, I taught them to use their strength to make their mouth sour in training schools.

Of course, that's not an easy thing to do.

However, Roman was one of the teachers who tried to faithfully defend the teaching.

Roman sighed after a moment of regret.

"... I'm sorry. I didn't seem to have much power.... just..."

"What?"

Once she told the romance, Alisa urged her to continue.

"As far as Dr. Alisa and the others are concerned, it's quite powerful, right?

In response, Alisa thought in her heart, "Passed."

You don't have to rely on your own strength to figure out what they're capable of.

Especially when you become an adventurer, you can't discern the power of the opponent.

Because first of all, the other person is definitely superior.

In such cases, it is also important to look at the response of the talented people around you and decide what to do, as Roman has just answered.

Alisa's "passing" in that sense.

But Alisa didn't dare tell me that was the right answer.

That's because I think it's going to be noticed by myself.

Alisa glanced at Roman with such thoughts and said something slightly off without daring to say the answers she wanted.

"What do you think? However, Kou's attention is drawn to three department heads, including the head of the Gazelan department."

By daring to name the department heads, I stabbed the nails so as not to make any extra trifles.

It's not like the Romans think they're stupid imitators.

I was hoping that the rumors would spread from the romance.

As expected, Roman's face looked surprised.

"To the head of department..."

After a while, the romantic expression became a refreshing expression of what he thought.

"I see. Thank you for your answer."

"It's okay. I'll always tell you when it's like this."

"Adventurers are basically information-gathering, so..."

Alisa smiled at the romance who repeated the basics at the training school.

"Yes, that's right. Anyway, let's do our best in Seitun right now."

"Yes, thank you."

According to Alisa, Roman lowered his head and returned to his companions.
