Mob, if I were a high school student, could I be an adventurer, too, Leah?

― ― ― October 1.

"Second year group C. I've been playing since 10 o'clock! It's free, so thank you!"

Casinos in Group A a year!

"Three years, Group B, I'm doing a maid's coffee ~! Cute... maybe not, but if you want to serve JK, go ahead!"

This day was my high school school festival.

Our high school does not distribute admission tickets in particular, so residents in the neighborhood are free to enter.

Therefore, near the main gate, the callers of each class raise their voices to attract customers, and there are stalls selling classic foods such as yakisoba, chocolate bananas, and cotton candy next to them, which was quite close to the real festival.

"With that in mind, I mean..."

"Two year C crepe shop, do it!" If you want to sit in a chair and rest, why don't you take a break? "

Crepe... please.

Crepes are delicious! I've never eaten it!

I used my card gear to pull Eliza and Meir's visions.

The reason why I'm doing this is because I have an item called card gear that I think I can use to attract customers... and I barely participated in the preparation in advance.

I think that this is the same every school festival, but the role of the school festival is often divided into preparation and the day's attendant.

Everyone wants to go to various places to play on the day if possible, and the attendant of the day is assigned by someone who didn't contribute much to the preparation.

It was only natural that I, who didn't take part in the preparations busily in the labyrinth strategy, would be assigned the attendant of the day, and I couldn't do anything even if I only had the power of the karst top.

Therefore, while an ordinary guy would take around either day for two days, and either morning or afternoon, I was supposed to have a customer service for both morning and afternoon for two days.

Oh, is this the rumor card gear? That's amazing.

Thank you. I'm working at a crepe shop in the second year!

"Maybe Kitagawa from Catfight?" Congratulations on winning the race! I'm always there for you! "

"Thank you for your support! If you don't mind, I'm at a crepe shop in the second year!"

Will you let that sitting boy out?

"Why does he hate this kind of stuff..." If you don't mind, I'm working in the crepe shop in the second year of the C group, so where are you? "

I still stand out from the crowd, obviously more than other classes.

There were many voices to be heard, and some of them were my fans in Moncoro, so I let them have a light conversation with Eliza and Meir, and I tried to serve them as fans.

Incidentally, why Eliza and Meir, Lotus refused these things from the end, Athena couldn't make it much bigger... so I was rotating between Eliza and Meir, Yuki and Suzuka, Durahan and Dragonet to attract customers.

Initially, Audrey was also included in the rotation, but the presence of the real maid Audrey caught the eye a lot, and a violent protest from the person in charge of customer service of the nearby (apparently no cute child) maid coffee, and the maid-like card was banned without daring.

"... that's right, Kitagawa-kun's card gear is amazing."

When the wave of customers retreated, Kato, a classmate, called out.

He was in charge of customer service because he also had card gear, but I didn't have as much power to attract customers as I did because of the difference in the cards I registered.

Therefore, looking at this face, it seems that it is infiltrating something somewhat complicated.

Well... Kato's invaluable role as an unobtrusive player seemed to me to be grabbed, so I guess it wasn't funny. I can understand how shady it is.

"I have some corrections in Monkey..."

Indeed, Kitagawa-kun is a celebrity.

So you're convinced, Kato, that the complex color disappears from your eyes.

Even without the card gear, I am now a known person.

Normally, when you walk around the city, there are faces without features that are rarely noticed, but if you put out the vision of the cards in the card gear, there are quite a few people who notice "that Kitagawa song".

In addition to the rarity of card gear, the owner's visibility also adds, so it was natural for Kato to have a difference in attraction.

"By the way, what does an adventurer look like?" I wonder if it's dangerous or hard after all? "

"... are you interested?"

Asked, Kato scratched her head with a slightly shiny face.

"Well, a little. I've been interested since I got my card gear..."

... after all, there's this kind of guy out there.

I'll give you a straightforward answer for now.

"Hmm, I can't say it's not dangerous, and it depends if it's too much for you or not... but at least I don't regret being an adventurer."

"I see..."

So Kato shows a slightly challenging score...

Hey, I heard about Kitagawa-kun renting cards.

Oh... I see, that's the kind of thing you're talking about.

"I don't know where I heard it at all..."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I've only been doing a little of that a while ago, but I'm not doing it now."

"... can I ask you why?"

“Simply put, I don't have any cards to lend. I used to play solo, so I had extra D-rank cards, but now I play as a team, so I put the drops together as a team. Liquidation and distribution of loot are supposed to be done collectively in the New Year due to taxes... There are fewer cards that are freer than solo D-rank cards. That's why I can't afford to rent it right now."

"Oh, I see."

Of course, this is before Kento's rejection.

Indeed, initially, the company planned to distribute and liquidate loot in a lump sum at the end of the year in consideration of taxes.

But now that we don't know when Angormor will happen, we can't afford to hold the loot until the end of the year. Therefore, every time I broke through the labyrinth, I switched to a system of distributing and selling.

Taxes are a bit high... but if society is stable enough to pay taxes next year, that's a pleasure.

So, while it's true that you can't afford to rent a card right now, it's as quick as a rental card... and you'll get one in a matter of days.

However, I refused to go around in this way because I want to keep the cards I don't use as much as possible for my family, and I can't trust Kato enough to rent more expensive cards.

To be precise, I don't know enough about Kato to be trustworthy.

Sometimes it would be troublesome if Kato asked me to lend you a card next time after the story spreads (... I feel it's too late for this at the time of Kato's arrival).

That said, if you say it as it is, it is meaningless to stand on the corner. So I turned it down for a long time.

"And..."

"If that's the case, I think it's better to tell Ono than me."

If you're talking about renting cards, there's something better than me.

To Ono-kun?

"Oh, he's diving into the D-rank labyrinth for the three stars promotion exam now." Maybe you have one or two D-ranks for rent. "

Apart from that, I didn't press Kato against Ono.

Ono himself has told me to turn the card rental to me if I can.

I haven't heard clearly about the intention, but it probably has something to do with the story of "making two army chicks."

In addition, for the Samsung promotion test, Ono has a C-rank card loaned from me.

I bought a card that no one in the Adventurer's Department wanted, and I lent it to them.

Regarding the purchase price, Garnet paid face to face, and in fact, the B-rank card given to Anna was paid from the sale price of Dionysus.

This is a card that was drawn with Treasure Tag cards about two weeks ago and sold for 1.5 billion dollars, even though it was not so good for battles among B-rank cards.

The market price of Dionysus would have been about 700-800 million yen until about a month ago if I was sure of my recollection, so it would have been about twice as high.

Perhaps this is due to the increased demand from the wealthy in view of Angormore.

Dionysus, the god of Greek mythology, has the power to produce the finest sake.

Even before the labyrinth, some Romaneconti had more than $100 million.

During the evacuation in Angormore, many rich people would be willing to pay that much money if they could drink as much alcohol as God produces.

By the way, the cards I lent you are Yama's stash.

I wasn't worried about escaping... but if it was a card that wouldn't hurt in case it was lost, it would be the only card I had.

After all, the market price was 10 million yen, and the buy-in price from the team was 5 million yen, so it was very cheap...

It's the same price as a real D-rank card, and the ability is also called a C-rank card. It's the best card for renting.

I see. Thank you. I'll ask Ono-kun.

I say thanks and see Kato off.

...... Phew, this is the third person in a month.

I feel the influence that card gear has on the general public when it's all in card gear.

Even on campus, this is it. I'm sure the guild has new signups coming every day.

Card gear production is increasing steadily, and the number of adventurers must continue to grow.

Perhaps the time has come when most of the people will have one or two cards if Angormore doesn't come.

Then, suddenly, I noticed.

I see... maybe that's what the country wanted.

The ownership rate of mobile devices is close to 90% of the population. If everyone uses card gear instead of their phones, most of the people will have at least one card, and everyone will be able to defend themselves a little while in Angormore.

If that happens, the phase will slow down, and in the meantime, it will also increase the chance that the Self-Defense Forces will be able to end Angormor...

Even if Angormor is inevitable and happens regularly every six months, if every citizen has a D-rank card and can deal with monsters, the phase will not go any further, which means conquering Angormor.

Angormor may also have the feeling of a big typhoon coming every year.

I thought about it and shook my head.

Either way, we're talking about hypotheses. Most of the people have card gear and there's not enough time to defend themselves during Angormore.

Humans didn't make it.

That was the only fact.

Well then, are you all set?

The bottom level of the labyrinth. A field of white temples reminiscent of ancient Greece, in its safety zone.

Anna asked, looking over at the faces of the crew sitting in the car seat.

We just nodded silently.

The school festival is over, and the next day is closed.

We've been trying to challenge the Lord for about a month.

In the last tactic, Kudan, a special monster, instead of the original master, eventually appeared, making this the first master battle in the C-rank labyrinth.

Reconnaissance has already revealed the Lord's identity.

A great man wearing golden armor and two huge spears in his hands... Arace, the Greek mythical god of war.

Although the details of the field effect were not known, it seemed to be a type of thing that would strengthen the main thing, especially since there was no appearance of debuffs on the field.

"Hang on, I want a good rest." Even if it can be managed by magic or potions, it's really tight mentally. "

For the past month, we've been diving into the labyrinth without a day's rest.

Take classes at school during the day, dive into the labyrinth after school until nearly ten o'clock every night, and stay overnight during the holidays to conquer.

As expected, for a month, diving into the harsh C-rank labyrinth every day without rest, no matter how many magical recovery and potions there are, there are spiritually painful things, and the heart was looking for rest.

Seeing other people nodding to my stupidity, Anna also showed some thoughtful tricks...

Well then, if you can beat the Lord today, I'll take a full day off tomorrow's Sunday and the rest of the week off Sunday and Thursday.

"Hmm... why did you do it on Sunday and Thursday?"

Woven part asks.

“Sunday off should be a day of complete refreshment. Thursdays are for Friday and Saturday nights.”

I see, thank you for taking the whole day off.

"But..."

"Is it pacemaker to take a whole Sunday off?" Honestly, holidays are the main strategy, right? "

"I wonder if I can use the distress card well." Honestly, the skill seal hierarchy is too cost-effective, and the drop rate of distress cards is better than I expected. "

Certainly, the skill seal hierarchy was a complete necklace in the conquest of this labyrinth.

Nowadays, we are a little used to the C-rank labyrinth in the strategy of summer vacation, and we can progress to the C-rank hierarchy for about a week, the C-rank hierarchy for one level on weekdays, and two to three levels on holidays.

Even so, it took about a month to get here because the weekday strategy was completely blocked in the skill seal hierarchy.

It takes us all day to break the skill seal hierarchy (even though I'm not part of it).

Even the D-rank hierarchy can still be broken in one day on weekdays, so it was too painful for the C-rank hierarchy to be broken on weekdays.

From the middle, I gave up the weekday strategy of the skill seal hierarchy and fought for drops in a hierarchy that was easy to fight, but it seemed like a good idea to shorten that time with a distress card and use it for holidays...

I dropped three of the Shipwreck cards I used just for this labyrinth attack.

I have already collected a few tiers of Shipwreck cards so that no matter when Angormore happens, this time I will have a full balance.

Using it to skip the skill seal hierarchy was much more meaningful than selling it normally.

Well then, it's time to go.

After the chat, we leave the safe zone with the cards.

― ― ― At that moment, countless arrows were falling in front of us.

However, the beautiful black-haired demon standing next to the master --- took a step forward, and when he waved the iron fan in his hand, a tremendous wind broke out, and all the arrows turned back. Not only that, but even those shooters who were hiding behind pillars and aisles were blown away.

A banana fan. A magic tool that has the effect of calling the wind once raised, the clouds twice raised, and the rain three times raised. It's one of the loot I got from this tactic.

An enemy slammed against the wall by a gust of wind reveals its appearance.

Those beautiful warriors dressed up as traitors... they were Amazones.

In mythology, Amazones is a tribe with Arace as its ancestor.

Therefore, Arace can summon the three Queens of Amazonas who are her daughters---Hippolyte, Antiope, and Pentecostalia. They also have the ability to summon their subordinates, Amazonas, indefinitely.

These Amazones were spearheads summoned by Arace's army summoning skills.

Athena

I know, Nike!

For the Vassal Summon, the Theory was the Vassal Summon.

Athena ordered Nikke to summon the tanks.

The other members also ordered the cards with each Vassal Summon, and followed suit.

Heroic tanks, Huangquan army, great spiders, alraunes, and lowly demons of evil appearance (Lesser Demon)...

The difference in numbers in this place instantly reverses, and each family member charges at the head of Nike's tank team against the Amazonesses who have turned into a minority.

Amazones is an excellent D rank, but all of our dependants are D rank. The tanks and the Huangquan army are in the front, while Al-Raune and the Lesser Demon are in the rear.

It's not something that can compete with Amazonas, which is now inferior in number, and it's an easy one.

"■■■■■■■■......!"

"Hmm...!"

― ― ― It was supposed to be.

However, the result was the opposite.

Along with the unbelievable roar of the Amazonesses, our vassals are blown away with a single swing of their arms.

Clearly deviates from the D-rank combat power. "This is..."

It's Arace's authority as a god of war.

Athena said boringly after seeing the battle of Amazones.

I see... this is it.

And it came to pass, that the beautiful faces of the Amazons were warped like beasts, and their bodies were slightly covered with red auras.

This was the hallmark of his Frenzy abilities.

Arace is a god with the nickname "Destroyer of the Walls".

Unlike Athena, who is the same god of Greek mythology as Athena, but has the synonym of "Guardian of the City" and commands victory and glory on the battlefield, Arace commands destruction and madness on the battlefield.

Therefore, the skill is more aggressive or rough against the defending Athena.

Arace's "Wallbreaker" and "Arace's Belt" are skills that give allies the power to fight war and madness.

Specifically, you can apply Level Up Magic to all allies and grant them the Fighter and Madness abilities.

Madness is a skill used by Berserkers called Degenerate Berserk that triples all stats, instead of becoming rampant and gradually diminishing vitality until the end of the fight.

If you can't defeat your enemies before their Vitality runs out, you risk losing them, but the increase in all stats is triple.

"With level-up magic, while being a vassal, he raises his strength to the same level as the growth limit of his cards, giving him the magic to fight with his warrior skill, and tripling his stats with his madness skill..."

This ability is said to enable Arace to rank up her family's substantial combat abilities one rank.

The risk of losing by madness is not a major disadvantage if you can summon as many dependents as you like.

I guess I didn't have the skills to go along with the Vassal Summoning.

It was a force worthy of being called a god of war.

In mythology, it is an arrace without very good episodes, such as losing to a human Diomedes opponent or being half-killed by the Greek mythic rambler Hercules, but it is a very good god as a card.

... but there are ways to deal with it, no matter how powerful your skills are.

"...... Audrey!"

I dared call Audrey with a fleshly voice, not a link.

Audrey nods and mayhem unfolds as I call for support from behind.

The crew members who were watching a series of flows from my voice understood our intentions and quickly retreated to Mayohiga.

We all entered Mayohiga safely by placing our family members in the palace, and we took a good breath there.

Phew, all you have to do is wait for the effect of Arrace's skill to expire.

Arrace's abilities are certainly powerful, but their effects last as little as an hour.

Then all we had to do was lock ourselves in a safe space and wait for the skill to run out of time.

By the way, if you don't evacuate to the safety zone or other tiers, your Lord's vitality, number of skills, and so on will be fully restored.

So we just had to wait for the clock to run out on the same tier of Battlefield.

In that regard, the cross-space card, which could wait for the time to expire relatively safely, was a professional necessity.

"...... but I can't get out of it yet."

Anna tells her to reconstruct the slightly loose members' consciousness.

Certainly, there were two concerns about this toad's methods of warfare.

The first is that the primary field effect may have prolonged the effect time of the Arrace skill.

Some of the primary field effects may extend the duration of the effect of a skill or limit the number of times a skill can be used.

No Debuffs in particular In this fight, it was particularly likely that the effects of that hand were chosen.

And one more thing... "

Ah...!? Master!

Along with Audrey's warnings, the entire Mayohiga was so warped that it hit us.

There are large holes in the walls, and dust inhibits visibility.

"Come on, let's see what's going on..."

Lightly peeled, blurry.

The timing of the Amazones' reinforcement, the fact that we were locked in and attacked immediately, the enemy seemed to be in quite a hurry.

... here's my second concern.

Arrace's [Wallbreaker] has the effect of breaking into the opponent's [territory].

Turf, barrier, temple, fortress... and other spaces.

There was no unbreakable fortification skill in front of Arrace.

The exceptions are the labyrinthine safety zone and Athena's Aegis.

Whether we wait for time to run out in Mayohiga, the god of war can come aboard with our faces.

The dust clears and the raider shows up.

Beautiful young man in armor on a four-headed tank...... It was the appearance of Arrace, the Lord.
