Living in this World with Cut & Paste

Episode 173: A New Labyrinth (15) Xanadu's Proposal

"Well Mine, because of that. Let's play a game."

... Games?

What the hell are you going to do? I have a bad feeling about this.

"... is it a game?

Xanadu's suggestion is a team fight between each other's representatives.

... that was exactly what I had no other way of calling it than a game.

You can only go to battle once per person.

If we win, Xanadu and the others fall back.

And if we lose, we will give everyone's life, including the victor.

Take it, don't take it... analyze the opponent's power first.

I checked earlier, but let's start with the chimera.

Name: Facefulness Chimera

LV: 96

Race: Magic Creature (Experimental)

Gender: -

[Skills]

Inherent magic and extreme light

Inherent Magic and Thunder

A fiercely poisonous demon eye.

[Ability]

chewing

First, the level is high. And I have magic I've never seen before.

But if you take away your skills and fight with caution, I think you're the one who can defeat them enough.

Looks like he should leave it to Khu.

Name: Pyrose

LV: 49 + 16

Race: Elves [Dark Fall]

Gender: Female

Status: Slave < Xanadu >

[Skills]

One-Handed Sword/Saint

Holy Tree Restraint (Yugdrasil Bind)

Inherent Magic/Tree

[Protecting the World Tree]

World Tree Blessing (Increased Attack)

What, this status...? And... well, even slaves!?

And there's something wrong with level notation. Besides, it says [Dark Fall] on the species.

[Dark Fall]: Obtained by those who originally had a just heart experiencing deep despair and frustration.

All basic stats have a chance to increase.

... Is it caused by the tragedy of the Elves? It could be a more dangerous opponent than it looks when all basic stats rise. Is it because of this that the level notation is strange?

"Silfi, Aisha...... Pilose is an elf, can you fight?

I'll tell the two of you the results of the [appraisal] in [Mindfulness] and check it out.

'... a dangerous opponent if you eat an attack, but I think if your husband [cuts] your skills, you'll win enough'

'I'm sorry, I think I'm tough. Due to the nature of the bow, a one-on-one confrontation is tough.'

Well, Aisha could be tough for sure.

Originally, a profession with long-range attacks assumed that there was a shield (tank).

...... hmm? Wait. Isn't it safer if Silfi and Aisha fight together?

Take the other suggestion, it would be unfair if you didn't listen to this request, too.

And the last [appraisal] is Xanadu.

... Become!? [Appraisal] Can't do it!? What the hell is this?

What the hell are you capable of...?

It's the first time I've never been able to get information about them.

... I guess I'll just have to fight this guy. But can we win?

To be honest, I'm not sure. Previously, the battle was won by taking the opponent's skills.

Even Oak King would never have won if [King's Intimidation] [Realization] [Inherent Magic/Space] hadn't been able to take it away.

Better than then, though I'm stronger... the devil is the one against me.

There is no guarantee that you can win.

But it may not be a bad idea to get on Xanadu's suggestion when this happens.

Anyway, if I fight with a combination of Fluffy & Ku and Aisha & Silfi, I can definitely win two. Even if I lose, I can win the game.

All right, let's negotiate on the assumption that we'll take it.

"There's no reason for us to take it?

When I return the answer, Xanadu answers with a boring look on his face.

"... Ha... I thought you'd enjoy it a little bit, huh? The people who are rolling there, including the demons they were serving... well, there were about 20 of them..."

I see Taylor with a chilling, distressed look on his face, and then I go on with the words.

"As you can see, Experiment 1... oh, I was ravaged by the whole chimera thing you guys are talking about, right? There's only five of you. You think you can win anything but a team fight?

I see. Was it a suggestion to consider this one less powerful?

Even if you can't beat your chimera opponent, maybe you can beat the other two? And you want us to think. Well, I guess we just want to have fun...

"I see. So can I just give you a few terms here?

"Conditions?"

I propose that we combine Ku, Aisha and Silfi so that we can choose our opponents.

"... well, I ask you, who will be my opponent?

I'll fight alone.

When I say that, I turn my eyes around and stare at me as if I were unexpected.

"... Hmm, speaking of which, I feel like I met you somewhere... where it was. You can't. I can't remember. Well, fine. Shall I take your offer?"

All right, now we're going to figure this out.

"Thank you, I'd like to have an ops meeting, please give me a moment."

"Oh, I don't mind."

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"For once, let's have a conversation in a conversation."

We get a lot of distance from where the chimera is, and we have an operational meeting.

Because the voice sounds in the labyrinth (dungeon), I decided to use the reading to have a conversation.

Since the distance is quite far away, I also thought I would escape the labyrinth (dungeon) for a moment and attack the day again. But after we left, Xanadu and the others got angry, and even if they didn't leave the labyrinth (dungeon) and attack the king's capital, I would still reconsider that there was only one way to defeat them here.

'... I'm sorry, guys. Eventually, it takes the form of riding the other person's thoughts...'

"No, given the status of the person your husband has just taught you, your husband is right."

"Wahoo! Leave it to me! I'm gonna kill him!

"Kicucum! I'll do my best, too! Welcome!

'So, what combination do we fight in?

Tell everyone about the combination you just thought about and who you're dealing with.

Then it looks like Aisha came up with something.

'Hey, Mr. Mine...... that pillow is an elf, can't you pull it in here?

... Huh?

Aisha's suggestion is too unexpected for my thoughts to stop for a moment.

No, I'm not the only one. Everyone else looked at Aisha with a frightened look.

'No, Aisha... how am I supposed to tell you to let me sleep back here? I have no idea... Besides, your husband's story is about that elf, that demon slave named Xanadu, right? A slave cannot betray his master. "

Silfi returns to me as soon as possible and asks Aisha.

"If the" Dark Fall ”was really the cause of the example incident... I think it might work..."

Start talking about the operation Aisha came up with.

... I see! Sure looks like we could use that operation! Yeah, we're seeing a complete victory!
