Over The Infinite

Episode 19: Eight Arms

-1 -

"Fifty layers. I'll knock down eight arms before you go to rest."

"I hear you even if I don't say it twice...... seriously?

"Seriously."

It was a line that reminded me of the connection between the stories in the weekly comics... are you serious? Well, if Gard's here, the tank won't be a problem.

Infinite corridor, fiftieth floor boss, eight arms. The main name used among adventurers is Happy, but officially Happy. It belongs to a magical creature as a classification, but it's not a monster like a golem, it's a mechanical doll...... it seems to be built close to a robot. There is a human body over a giant snake, and there are two arms, six more arms over the snake's body. Not instead, but no legs, crawl and travel like snakes. The main means of attack is weapon attack. Skillfully manipulate the weapon by its eight arms, switching by Waapon Change to match the opponent. There are few things like legality in the weapons dealt with, but basically the top human arms use long-handed weapons, and the other six use one-handed weapons or shields, apparently. They don't use shooting weapons, throwing weapons.

The drop item is a figure part of the eight arms themselves. Like other floor bosses and unique monsters, eight-armed figures are also sold in guild stores, but the model scale is different from that, which is the only rare item treatment available here. It's not particularly effective, it's just a collector's item, but surprisingly, they have enthusiasts among intermediate-rank adventurers. He's a boss in a separating layer called fifty, so maybe he's special popular. Also, you can see from the fact that it is the part that drops, but naturally we don't get together after just one attack. There are human torso and arms, snake torso and arms, tails, and parts of a weapon held with each hand, and they drop randomly. Naturally, there's no guarantee that what you're after will come out. By the way, unlike the main body, it can be extended by connecting multiple torso bodies together, and they can also make super long hundred arms, etc. It's a troublesome shape to decorate.

"No way, you're not talking about wanting figure parts. Is that some special reason?

"Not as special as it sounds. If it stays like this, it won't come up for me for long. Now, clan up."

"Oh... a clan master course"

The Clan Master Course is a mandatory course for the establishment of clans where the fiftieth tier breakthrough is a condition for students to attend. There are fewer commas than clan masters, but submasters are also required to take courses.

Indeed, Gardo remains a garden stone for a while if he stays this way. Unless you have an event like < Four Divine Negative Takeshi >, you can't do that many times. I also feel like I could hold it again if I burned down around Tiregua somehow, but it wouldn't make sense to do it.

"Cranmaster courses have a lot of commas. If you want to take the course, you've never done it before."

"What. Looks like Gardo's taken it before."

"There is. I don't need it, and I stopped taking it right away."

Do you have one? I mean, I knew it was boring.

"We don't need to hurry, but unless there's a time when we can't act as adventurers. Take it all together at that time."

"... garudiously, is it conspicuous that there is enough power for a fifty tier offense?

"Enough. Instead, there's no choice but to smoke under fifty layers now."

Again, experience in < Four Divine Neighbourhood >? Well, I don't agree, and Yuki seems to have the same idea.

"I've been free lately. I saw all your past videos, including Nanbu the Four Kinds. I don't know. A lot of them, but they'll have enough local power. The only thing missing is equipment and experience. That's not a mandatory level, either, but enough to cover it. I mean, he's weaker than the two ghosts who fought in the Fourth Area."

Gang-yin and yang ghosts. Even though I know it thinly, I can't really feel it because my memory is vague, but it's a possible story for a boss in that area. From what I've seen in the video, I don't feel like I can win a rematch.

"If you don't feel like attacking me if I help you, you should retake your attack after a break. We can't do this after 51 layers, and we need to align the other guys' offensive progress."

"I don't mind trying if you help me.... Lirica, okay? You're gonna be a week late."

"That's not a problem. I've completed all the intermediate promotion exams, so I can't help you with that.... if I can afford time, I need to find a day job."

You are the winning member of the Four Divine Practitioners. What happened to the prize money?

"Okay. Some parts depend on the others, but I'll move on in the direction of next week's Attack challenge."

"Do that. If it's really not convenient, I can't help it."

Even if you try, the problem is you're a member. If the purpose is to take the course, me and Yuki will be confirmed, and Gardo and Mr. Mizuki will need Moya for positions they can't cover, and the remaining frame will be Sarjes or Borg or Chimera... No, if you're after fifty layers of breakthroughs at once from forty-one layers, you exclude bogs that can't be maintained along the way.

I have to ask Mizuki and Moya for convenience too. Gard would have just said it in his mind, so he wouldn't be thinking about the convenience of the other members. I also need to talk to the members who were going to attack the forty layers next week.... Yuki, I think I've already told the members.

Either way, it's a layer we have to attack. The time is just getting faster, and it helps that the experience helps. Even this kind of experience would not be in vain.

"By the way, I'm gonna change the story altogether, but hey, is that big TV over there your personal property?

I was talking about watching the video because I was free, but Gardo's giant doesn't fit into our living room. So is the editorial room in the Guild Hall, and Tilia's room shouldn't have raised the ceiling. So even if I want to watch the video, the question arises as to where I want to watch it, but is that the answer?

A TV set that rests directly in a normal garden can only be described as unnatural. At first I thought it was moving luggage, but if you think about it, it wouldn't be natural for Lirica to be buying a TV that hasn't been long since she came to the labyrinth city.

"Ouch. It's an outdoor set that cares about audio. I'm just spending a little money."

Just a little...... It's a giant monitor and speaker that I think sits in a movie theater, not the size that can be installed in a general home. Billing, but more than a hundred inches seems possible. This is a cranhouse, so you can sound insulation and it won't be a problem, but if it were a regular garden, you'd get complaints.

I saw the price of the TV at the appliance store in the labyrinth city, but I didn't get the impression that it was that cheap compared to Japan. It would be strange that such a big monitor is just a little bit. A unique sense of money for high-ranking adventurers. I knew you had money, this guy.

"At first I thought about using a head-mounted display with care for Tilia. I couldn't resize it."

"If it fits your size, you won't be in general circulation."

"There are regular headphones. It's expensive and mostly produces orders, but it's sold to giants."

Is there such a thing? Though it's for giants, I don't think there's such a demand. Gowen, the car that hit Bingo at the end of the year ended up selling wings.

"So if it came with" sizing, "or so I thought, you couldn't. Unlike general distribution, it is non-returnable, so I will take extra"

With that said, Gardo took the head-mounted display out of the Item Box.... did you buy it without even making sure? It looks just a visor, but I'm sure you can see it on the big screen. Looks a little expensive. I'm interested because I haven't had a hand in this product in my previous life.

"Not TV, so you can watch the video?

"It's like a portable TV. You wear this and you look inside the screen... here."

I tried to put it on Lirica's head because she didn't understand it when I explained it. These things are quick to get a feel for.

If you look from the side where it is worn in this way, it is likely to shoot even in the beam. It would be perfect if you wore blue tights.

"Wow... it's dark"

"The activation is a switch near the right ear. And you'll be able to see around you."

"Ears...... oh, I can see.... I don't know, what's going on? I have the feeling I'm wearing it, but my vision is the same as usual."

Lilica turning this way with her visor on. I'm going to laugh by accident, but I'm patient.

Apparently, it's a mechanism that allows you to see around as well as the screen. It doesn't look like it's actually transmitting, so there's probably a camera installed and it's a mechanism for displaying it on an internal monitor.

"Wait a minute, play the video now"

and Gardo operated a remote control that had been removed from somewhere with a huge hand. You're clever.

"Wow, something's out. … a screen appears in the universe"

"The AR guy."

Maybe it's floating in the air feeling like the status screen Dilk showed before.

If you ask me for an explanation, they can display stereoscopic footage as well as screens using compatible software. It is a feature that porn is likely to progress. I can't use it anyway. Damn, I'm so interested.

"Can I try, too?"

"Oh, yeah. Should I just take it off as it is?"

Attach the visor received from Lirica as is. Automatic "sizing" seems to be good, and it fits my head perfectly.

The power is left on, so I can still see the area around me even if I wear it.

"Oh... wow"

I don't know if it's a story compared to the status screen floating around, but I still have to admire these technologies. Yuki or whatever, he's definitely the first type to jump. Now I want to try the game.

... On second thought, it's the rock giants and wizards that are in sight. It didn't have to be a game. It was fantastic enough.

"It can't be used as a wash anyway, so you can donate it as a shared item for your clan."

I honestly can't think of a use for it, but someone is going to use it just to keep it as an entertainment. With me?

"Thank you, but that would be your whole loss."

"Well, if the eight-armed part drops, give it priority. Especially the left arm of the body"

"I thought you were collecting them."

"I'm not saying I didn't collect it. It's disgusting to have only one part."

Well, no one would complain if I told you in advance. No one is interested.

I get Gardo to operate the remote control and enjoy the various displays, but even from the inside, he can operate with a touch panel, and I'll try to flip through the options floating in the air. They can also zoom like binoculars, erase the display around them and make it a big screen display like a movie.

Turning down any information and watching a movie on a big screen that looks like it could be hundreds of inches seems compelling inside.

"Some Dungeon Attack videos show every view around them."

"Oh."

That's how it showed up in my sight is a nostalgic trial dungeon. I can feel the adventurers I don't know attacking me with immersion as if I were on the spot. Wherever you move your vision, what you see is a dungeon. This is amazing.

It can be moved manually, but if you crouch, your point of view goes down, and if you walk, you travel for that amount properly. Naturally, I can't touch it, but if I approach the adventurer, I can feel like I've become a transparent person.

They have to set up settings for AR at the time of editing, but there will be demand even if you think about the hassle. Will you edit it if I ask Kukuru?

"I don't have a lot of software that supports this. Mostly, they settle for gaming or normal TV viewing applications"

"Well, I guess so. What kind of show does Gardo usually watch? It's not all Dungeon Attack videos, is it?

Meanwhile, I move my perspective around trying to peek inside the skirt of a female adventurer. Hehe, I don't think this kid has a peek in the video either.

"What the hell happens to that posture...?

From the side, they're dressed in extra weird outfits. Well, you're acting like a scalpel.

It's a trivial sacrifice to satisfy this exploratory spirit, but I don't see it in my skirt. Damn, recognition inhibition. Gaddem.

"What I usually watch is a time play or something. I often watch long lasting longevity shows from one end to the other. We'll have plenty of time."

You're not going to sleep, so you don't have much time. Hundreds of stories or not, but I think I can afford to get it done.

We can also afford to talk about seafood that doesn't age forever, or blue raccoons from the future.

"We'll mostly be watching special features and stuff that will be on the air over the course of a year. Looking in turn, I find the shift in technology interesting inside. And then I'll probably get my hands on some magic girl stuff that's going to be on the air following the special shots."

"Oh, that's a bad diet"

Whatever. Not by the looks of it, but I guess I'm not even interested in adoration or anything like that. It's rock.

"These days, we've been following real-time broadcasts. The magic girl that started during this time Miracle Ruru and other works with strong habits but medium sights. Panda......"

"... panda?

What, is that a phantom? A panda comes out of the magic girl's story about what happened. No way, I think the Capoella Panda curse has recurred......

"Noooo! What the hell!?... why are you so precise in your core! Wow!?"

But there is no explanation. And then there was the sound of something smashing so as to block Gard's screams from words. What, what!? Are you changing generations?

My vision is a trial dungeon, so I can't confirm the situation. Should I take it off here? No, but......

"Duh, what's up? Is something wrong?

"Because there's nothing"

It wasn't Gardo who replied, it was Lirica.

"Because there's nothing"

"No, I don't have to tell you twice...... Gard? Mr. Gard?"

No reply from Gardo at heart. What's going on around me right now?

... What shall I do? I don't have the courage to remove the visor.

"Because there's nothing"

-2 -

"Oh, I was expecting that to happen somehow. No problem."

The next day I explained to Moya about the rescheduling and she returned such an answer. This makes the required position on the road cheap.

"You expected it.... Seriously?

"I'm assuming that there's going to be a development that won't clap as much as I can imagine these days, so I thought it might still be more important. The reason is also convincing. Ideal if you do consider scheduling a clan master course"

Is it a habitual battlefield savvy? You think you can react instantly whenever an enemy strikes you? I don't have that in mind.

"Even with this mindset, it's Tsuna who goes on that diagonal."

"No, no, no, no, no, whatever. That's it..."

"Complete new species were unexpected, even until the crusade designated species encounter"

"No one can expect a fishman."

If I could have expected that to come out without previous information, it would be a prophet or something like that. I have too little context.

I just can't solve the fact that it's my fault.

"Just leave me alone.... is that OK?

"Yes, we've generally investigated the offensive information on the eight arms, so let's have a meeting later. If you don't have time, you can attack."

"There's a good chance we won't make it to the 50th floor, and if someone falls off along the way, we're not going to try."

No matter how much you've been attacked boss, it's another way to get there. When I peeked at the forty-one layer, it seemed unlikely that I could proceed because it was a normal floor, but since then it has been an unconstructed random dungeon. Without Ladine, it is difficult to grasp the floor structure before proceeding, and it is possible that the next layer cannot be reached within the time of stay. Even monsters will come out more powerful than ever, although they are meant to be fine compared to the fourth area of < Four Divine Nerves >.

If we can break through the forty-fifth layer, which is the relay point, it is a result that can be called upward. A normal party would still be too much of a category.

"By the way, this is an issue that involves the time the clan was founded, but isn't Moyer going to move out of < Arc Sabre > 's dorm?

"... oh, it's time to think about that. But if we're gonna talk about leaving, we're moving fast."

"No, actually, some of the guys who recently moved in got very anxious about letting them use the room alone, why don't you do a one called Roomshare? Now I'm going to give you a G.P. for expansion."

"I don't like it."

It is an instant answer.

"... Ri, can I ask why? I don't like other rooms..."

"The dorm is in the same room now, so that's nothing. However, on top of this, I have a fiercely unpleasant feeling. Recently, I realized that following the survey is a way to get along well with Watanabe and the others, so this is a no."

Damn, I'm angry again that it's the right answer. If you were Moya when we met, you'd be easily fooled.

I don't have many more candidates. Do we still have to count on Mr Lotte here?

"I mean, if that's the story, Mr. Lirica's the only candidate, right? Did Senior Dirk tell you that you can't clean up?... Is it that bad?

You know that. I've been having a party. If it's information from Dirk, it seems possible.

"... terrible. It was a day's work with all the Panda Corps."

"It's also..."

After that, I forgot to play with the audio equipment that Gardo has and the console. I don't know. I also forgot that time goes by with the funny goods, but Alexander called me to confirm the time already in the evening. But even at that time, the move wasn't over. I bracketed Taka that it was about the same as putting it in because it was precisely about two hours to be transported out, but she didn't make it through.

I eventually got Ladine's permission to rent some of the Pandas' log houses, but still the amount of room to fill. Our cranhouse room is supposed to be quite large compared to a dorm, but something strange happens. By the way, it was opposed to Nussi in the garden to keep it in Tilia's garden.

This gave me a desperate look when I told him that I had to ban him from shopping until Lirica could earn a GP and expand the room, but he deserved it. I think Mr. Lirica needs to weigh in a little more. They said there were no more prizes for the previous event.

"In the first place, when we founded the clan, we were going to live alone, weren't we? My brothers are getting out of hand, and I don't need to go back to my parents' house. Because if it's a clan house, it ends up like living together."

What, you didn't originally intend to live in a clan house?

"You live alone. Do you have many sisters and brothers?

"That's a lot. I'm on top, I have two younger brothers and four younger sisters downstairs."

You're a busy family again. You've been working too hard on your parents.

I hear there are many such cases if someone from outside the labyrinth city has a home, but would it be the same?

"A labyrinth city is abundant evidence, isn't it? If it's our hometown, they'll sell it, or they'll suck."

"That's again...... I've heard a lot about it, but it's a village with deep darkness, haha"

"You're sorry for the laughter. That village."

It's not really that stylish. I'll let you listen slowly next time. I might cry if I talk to you.... mainly me.

That's why Yuki and Mizuki are asked to understand their participation in the same way. As a result, a 50-layer strategy was decided without particular problems. I was wondering if there would be a few more problems, so much so that I clapped it out.

'Eh, I've already decided to order next week...'

Yuki was the most upset I thought I anticipated this development the most. Maybe he was on fire with the mission of having to dungeon attack him for a month in his main as he used to. But unfortunately, its mission is to defeat it a week back.

That's how we begin to prepare for the 50-layer offensive.

Whatever, it's a dungeon attack on a layer I wasn't planning on doing. Although we were gathering information with a view to the future, the absolute quantity is not sufficient. Repeat the meeting based on the information that Moya and Yuki were collecting, and review the offensive videos again and again that may be helpful. Since there are a large number of members who have never worked with Gard, we also conducted simulation battles with offensive members to confirm collaboration.

Within that, a week goes by in no time. The public is busy at the Blood Valentine's Day event, but we are regular dungeon attackers.

The members are me, Yuki, Sarjes, Moya, and Gardo and Mizuki. Sargess, not Chimera, is supposed to be compatible with the eight arms. It is preferable to have a < fighter > who is good at skill collaboration.

Surprisingly...... or better party balance than the members of the Forty Layer Strategy. There are shields, healing, auxiliary, and rear guard fire. Mostly Mr. Mizuki.

[Infinite corridor, forty-sixth floor]

Not surprisingly, the offense progressed without anything.

hard difficulty compared to forty layers or less, but that is within the assumed range. No hazy maps of concern have been encountered so far either, just standard caves and labyrinths. Nor have we encountered any crusade-designated species. Naturally, there are no fishmen either. No, he's a crusade-designated species, too.

"I'm not gonna make you call me a hassle map guy anymore"

'Cause no one's saying it.

Somehow Yuki's scratch goes into the words he utters in his mouth. I just didn't say it under a unique name, though I would have thought. They told me a few times it would be a hassle map when I was around.

"So, continue like this?

"Oh. I don't have any particular problems, and we're gonna go as far as fifty floors as planned"

The current location is on the forty-sixth floor. It's a safe zone near the transfer gate. If you're returning, it's a relay point here, but there's no reason to turn back.

Ask Gardo or Mizuki, who are experienced, they seem to have a fairly easy floor configuration on their way to this point. This is more of a flag that hits the hassle map around the forty-seventh layer if you turn back and try again.

"So, I've been wondering, what are you reading? Between layers, you read all the time, don't you?

"Reading. - You're studying. A reference book."

"... a reference book?

Basically before and after the transfer gate...... the safety zone is free. There is a lot of work to be done to prepare for the next layer attack using the time limit, to reflect on the previous hierarchy and wash out the questions, and to make sure the new collaboration is pure, but what is needed now is to study for the Cranmaster course and the accompanying qualification exam.

Students are also in the mood that the reference books they are currently reading are sticky notes, written, and fluorescent marker lines drawn. Either that or I don't remember studying so much during the exam.

"Okay, I'll lend you this because I need you too"

"Wow... that's thick, what's this?

"So it's a reference book"

"... of what?

"That's from the clan master course. You can take my half, but you have to take it too."

"... Huh?

Yuki's expression caught my eye.

Courses taken by adventurers are basically non-existent, such as exams. Some practical exams, etc., but only for specific qualifications. I guess that's why I didn't envisage a course that would require a reference book this way. Neither do I, but most of the clan master candidates are going to eat.

The clanmaster course that Yuki and I will take will be quite long. There are four exams along the way, two in the first semester and two in the second semester, and if you don't pass the exam, you can't move on to the next course. All you have to do is qualify as a submaster. Yuki only takes it for the last semester, but still needs to study. To be honest, it's not as null as the trick I'm taking right now.

"And then there's the reference set of questions and... you also need a general education exam. I'll give it to you later."

"Hey, wait a minute. I knew you needed a course, but the reference book is this thick?

"I'll tell you what, that's better.... How miserable I am. Look at this pile of references. Now it's just a little bit... the tip of the iceberg."

"Wow..."

When I showed him a pile of references stacked in the Item Box, Yuki's expression turned into something indescribable.

This majority has nothing to do with Yuki… or with the general clan master, but it is necessary to speed up the establishment of the clan at all. I look at it painfully and it also seems to contain completely irrelevant areas, but when I know what's in it, it makes so much sense, it's not tacky because it convinces me. I can't even spill stupidity on this.

'Time won't pass if you're in the dungeon, and you can secure your study time, right?

and the face of the manager, who has smiled and said off and given him tons of books, comes to mind. I only remember fear these days because it even comes out in my dreams.

No, it's not. The free time in the dungeon should be the time to heal the wounds of the attack, the time to rest, not the time to play the slaughtered Kimchiro Ermiya. I'm honestly confused that one day I'm supposed to play the sight I imagined.

Yuki, too, could do enough to partly share this ordeal as a partner. It doesn't make any real sense because you have to study the same part after all, even if you know what I mean.

"Uh, it's hard to say, I'm a stroke,"

"I know that."

That's because I went into a struggle with cancer, not because I'm an idiot. There is no excuse. I mean, maybe you're smart. I can, I can. Whatever it is, you can take about half the exams in other fields. Except for the clan master qualification, you just have to have a qualification holder in your possession.

"Instead of high school, I don't have any problems because I haven't touched any of the parts I learn in Japanese general education courses. Rest assured."

"I'm sure you are... but I wasn't talking to you."

You don't have to speak up, but you have to remember eventually, so it doesn't matter.

Oh, I wish I had an item that burns knowledge like a skill orb anyway, or a sleep learning device.

... No, you can't. I feel like it's possible, but that doesn't make me feel like nightmarish suffering awaits me.

So, although there was no turmoil, it became, in a sense, the harshest dungeon attack ever.

-3-

[Infinite corridor, fiftieth floor]

And reach the layers of purpose without much turmoil except for study. All we have to do is leave the way to the boss room. As far as Moyer's been scouting ahead, it seems this isn't a special map either. We're starting our last brief near the transfer gate that will be the entrance to the layer.... Yeah, I think it was packed with all the knowledge that had nothing to do with it directly, but the adventurer needs to come to the book.

"The key to fighting the eight arms is to destroy each arm."

Based on the materials prepared, Moyer begins a description of the eight arms. Since the information is largely known, the implications of reconfirmation are strong.

One of the reasons why eight arms are called strong enemies lies in the skill collaboration that each arm goes independently.

The same is true of the high level of accuracy, power, and activation speed of the moves, but unless you interrupt here, there is almost a 100% chance that you will decide between three and five collaborations. I don't know if it's accurate because it's a machine, but in addition, the post-action stiffness after activation is unusually short.

Then, when it comes to magic, can he break through? Because he has magic interference skills such as "Magic Cut," any magic that activates extensively is inhibited by shooting magic or magic that activates at designated locations. It takes more than a certain amount of continuity to crush his arm, whether it's a physical attack or a magic attack. Skills collaboration involves skills collaboration. Interception moves more than avoidance, so you can use the same number of skills.

Easy to meet, Tree is said to be a must for adventurers who want to attack here for the first time. Naturally, there is no problem if you are in an avant-garde position where stable and high number of collaborative skills can be activated.

This means that it is the minimum condition of the attack that deals damage beyond eight-arm skill linkage, including cover.

"In short, if you have people like Tsuna and Sarjes, you have no particular problem with them. The key frontal force is Mr. Gard."

Says Moyer, who continues to explain his eight-armed strategy. Well, it's important because it doesn't start without a damage source, but it's also important that there are other shields and aids that take his attacks. However, this time the shield and auxiliaries are also experienced.

"I wonder what kind of examiner the offensive position is working at the very least. I've fulfilled my terms, and I wonder if I can be alone with Gaul, Moyer, and then with continuity."

"Sometimes in my case, I don't use a lot of collaboration, so it's critical."

I haven't seen much of Moyer collaborating on skills. Basically, the degree to which an attack skill is activated for maximum effect at the required location. There will be no major turning this time around.

There are many parts of me that I don't know if I don't actually try, but I think the damage will go through if it takes more than one person at worst.

"Positive attack is a means of destroying arms and eventually knocking down the body with a series of attacks that exceed skill collaboration, but multiple attackers can change the timing and attack, and there is a hand in aiming at interrupting skill collaboration. He's got a lot of weapons, but he only has one weapon type at a time, so it looks like weapon destruction is working."

I also find it less realistic because of the many weapon species themselves, but it would be possible if asked if it was feasible. This is likely to be the case around the real < blacksmith > and Asha.

"Some hands ignore the arm and slap the body if you have the firepower, but it is not recommended"

"Why?

"The body is stiff. It seems to be a specification that weakens every time your arm is destroyed. For once, the damage will go through, so take it down, but the rank above is the means to use as an arm's test. Tough on the firepower of the eagles. Or even the < Stonehenge > guys couldn't do it"

"You're the boss of the game."

I agree. It's a friendly game and there's instructions at the end of the screen. 'Destroy your right arm'?

Now that I know how to attack, it won't be a problem, but I wonder if first sight offensive parties and such have come across a lot.

"There will also be monsters that will weaken by fulfilling the conditions, so I guess they will also be practicing with them."

As usual, it means a test to see if you have the necessary strength ahead of you.

This place is just a mighty enemy if it's a party with a minimum, a wall that's hard to cross for a party that's not enough. It's just a mighty enemy to us. Of course, strong is strong, so you can't be alarmed or anything, but with Gard and Mizuki, the war situation would be pretty stable. If you're going to fight for it, you need two avant-garde attackers to go through the damage. I need one shield there because I have to suppress the front body... don't pack it depending on the party configuration. Nevertheless, my overall ability as a party is tested. Here it is a distorted party that relies on one's skill or a pointy party that knocks out firepower only with a rear guard. Small numbers and solos are out of the question.

"In fact, if you really want to share the work, there's not enough for six of us."

"Basically, the force required after the middle class is a full member party premise. It's almost impossible to break through here with a solo"

"Solo adventurer...... for example, how did Bacchus get out of here?

"It won't be published. He's a special example of extreme weakening if he's not alone, so maybe there's a solo specific way. Or we could have partied temporarily."

If you throw away the benefits of having a party, you have a high level of personal ability... Was he such a style adventurer? I thought you hated me and nobody would put me together. Though my boss, I don't even think Terawaros helped.

"A top-class front-line group would seem to afford one. He used it to practice skill collaboration sometimes."

"What are you doing, that guy"

No, it's probably best for the practice guy.... You didn't want figure parts, did you?

After that final confirmation, we go for the boss room on the fiftieth floor.

The journey was complicated and steep, with many strong enemies, never an easy journey, but I felt much easier when it came to fighting on the ground. On the other hand, if it's underwater, it's going to be Mr. Mizuki's private stadium, but we'll get to the boss's room without that show coming. Huge door in front of me. I don't think I've seen it in a long time in the infinite corridor, but the boss room doors are releasing the kind of heavy pressure that stretches.

"Well... let's go"

Make sure everyone snorts, and I open the door.

Into the room, the first thing I felt was killing. A sharp, arrowy killer pierces his skin with biscuits.

Beyond that sign is a mechanical snake. This is the look of the 50-layer boss, confirmed by scattered footage so far.

That confirms who we are. We've been rushing into a lot of momentum. A giant jumps with a weapon in his hand and jumps out of his head.

"Duh duh duh duh!!"

Gardo stands in front of everyone and takes the hit from the front.

As planned. As planned, but eight arms move faster than I imagined. Even though Gard will take the front attack, capturing the arm of the jumping torso section would be a tricky move. An onslaught that can be applied to Gard with a Hulbert in your hand. Gard can't rely on a giant shield to prevent it, but is it possible for someone else to take that onslaught? At least I won't be.

The first source of damage required in this battle is the damage that destroys your arms, but before that, you won't be able to talk about it without a shield to take the attack from the front. Don't avoid it, it's the least you can do. Otherwise, there could be damage to other party members. You will need just enough Defense and Health to take all attacks purely.

Become a long street. There was that certainty. Pre-information or not, this guy is a tough opponent.

The first thing we have to do is put moving body arms in range. It was Yuki's < anchor shot > that cut the fire. It is effective as a means to receive enemies, even if not underwater. Yuki's body flies to be pulled by the pierced rope.

The arm of the torso doesn't just wait. An arm stretching and contracting like a snake belly hits me like a whip. And even if we intercept it, we can get away immediately. The arm alone is going to make the Hit and Away happen.

"Let's go!! Fit it!!"

- Action Skill: Fortress Bash

Matching Gard's signal, he thins fleshly on his eight arms, which are only tempered for a moment.

It is an occasion when Gard is reminded of his excellence as a shield, taking on the most important position of taking an attack from the front and even supporting the attack. But the burden should be heavy for that.

First one. Crush one arm and it will make Gardo easier as well as us. But no rush. We should definitely cut enemy power here, even over time.

Capture snake-like arms grown from snakes. The weapon in your hand is a long sword.

- Action Skill: Power Slash

A familiar basic sword technique activates all the time with small hand checks. Knock it off.

The distance from the played arm leaves. I can't chase you. Damn, it's hard to create one-on-one schematics first before intercepting with skill collaboration.

"Tuna, lay down!?"

With Yuki's hanging voice, he notices another arm approaching suddenly from the side.

Simply cutting it off avoided accidental strikes, but dangerous. I can't just deal with one bottle because it's getting stretched out, but it's tough when it comes to fighting in action like this. This guy is a formidable enemy even if he leaves the bulk of the burden to Gard.

Who is it, the guy who said there was no problem? It's not easy at all.

"Leader. It's impossible to capture an array from the front in a legitimate way"

Meet Sarjes, who had been flying around the eight arms from earlier to gaze at the gap.

You're absolutely right. From the feel of the meeting, it is wrong to think of Arre as the one person in one. Each one moves independently, but in the end, everything works together. It would be difficult if I miswore it there.

"We're going by ourselves. Aim for the gaps I'm meeting. If you can aim, it's the elongated arm part."

Copy that.

I can see Yuki and Moya's movements have changed whether it was conveyed that instead of attacking their arms in pieces, they definitely shifted to a maneuver that would end one piece at a time. If it's as you did in advance, you'll be dealing with another arm that comes with surprises. It takes time, but we just have to believe in Gardo here.

A long battle began there.

While Yuki and Moya are guiding, Sarjes earns damage while I capture arms and seal moves with skill combinations. I can't stop you right away just making money. That's how I can get away.

It is also difficult to attack the same arm in a row. Little by little, it really builds up a little bit of damage. Even in the meantime, Gardo has taken the onslaught directly from the front. A regular shield… Even Tilia, for example, would be impossible to sustain this front for a long time. It is a battle that will cause anxiety after the next time.

The chance to destroy the first arm came after a few dozen minutes had elapsed in time.

The arrow released by Mr. Mizuki hits him as he moves, and I raid where he stopped the movement for a moment. Sargess jumped into the arm area behind it, which was stretched out. He manages to crush the first one with an almost defensively ignored special attack.

Happy also for a while. I imagined the flow of repeating the same thing for five more minutes and finally confronting the main body.

Nevertheless, destroying one bottle also reduces cooperation between arms for that matter. Together, the weakening of the main unit also reduces Gard's burden...

As I reduced the second, third and number, my eight arms moved visibly worse. No, five arms already. Thus, when the fourth arm was destroyed, a numbing Gard's iron fist flew, and the body of the eight arms blew away.

The rest is total force. When we did it, our stress relief began after a long battle.

[Infinite Corridor Fiftieth Hierarchy Boss Eight Arms Destroyed]

"Long time!! That's just tiring"

Gard screams right after the fight is over. Apparently, he didn't expect to be this long either, and he was in trouble along the way.

I mean, we don't have enough firepower or combat experience. So it becomes a shield-dependent long-term battle. It was only with Gard's giant that I would take those eight arms directly in front of me. I really can't do it as a human-sized shield. It would be impossible to tell Tilia to do the same. In the first place, it won't hold up for long against that onslaught.

... This is a challenge. Fifty walls were thicker than I imagined.

All in all, the fifty layer breakthrough, which is the purpose for now, came true. This will also give you the Cranmaster course.

"And why do you drop all three tails? I don't know what that means."

They didn't get what you were looking for, either. It's not our fault.

-4-

"I can't believe you're really attacking fifty layers..."

After returning from the dungeon, the launch will be there, and a report will be sent to Lirica's room. It also checks to see if it's scattered, but let's just say it's good because it still fits within the scope of people's activities. I'm not saying it's not messy.

"I did it to attack, but that's no good. With the firepower at the moment, we can't talk without a gard-like shield. Near forty layers is the main thing for a while."

In the fifty layers, the presence of Gard is close to irregularities. We can finally attack by relying on it, so we don't have enough local power. At best, Mr. Shui is up to standard.

The majority of guys aren't over forty layers yet, so pulling it up in sequence won't change the immediate goal. Although it is mainly Yuki who does it.

"So it's the Gate of Souls. When can we go?

"Anytime. Tuna, where you can lie down... in this case, I think you'd like your own room."

"Okay. Well, let's get this over with."

And, with all the momentum that I have done, I move to clear this one up.

It's a situation of calling a girl into a room, but for some reason I'm not very excited. Is it because it's right after that dirty room commotion?

The activation time of the Gate of Souls depends on the person, but it lasts about an hour or two. It seems the first time tends to be longer, so is it about three hours in the long run? I don't have plans for a while, so I don't have a problem with how many hours.

"Wouldn't you, Lilica? This is how I usually clean up my room."

When I explained that I was about to enter the room, I was silently caught in the back. I can't solve it.

"In the end, I don't know why I want to use the Gate of Souls. You want to use magic so bad?

"That's what you're gonna do."

Actually, it's because the super amazing wizard told me, but I'm not going to reveal that at the moment.

According to Lirica's description, the Gate of Souls is a technique for training magical qualities. That seems to be the perception. But that's probably not all. So much so that Erica comes all the way out here to instruct you, you better think there's something else for you. I don't have magic skills in the first place. At a time when there is not a single fitness value that has reached the criteria, the conclusion has been reached that it is impossible to make it the main one. Even if I train, at best, it's about lizard old man. It is said that it will only be experienced to the extent that it is used to assist.

Lie in your own bed and Lirica holds your right hand. I'm fine, but I'm in the hospital.

"Then we'll get started. Because I haven't established it as a skill. It'll take a while, though."

"Say hello."

It began with a light feel, but shortly afterwards, I felt intense heavy pressure gathering around Lirica. Probably magic. A dense magic vegetable is converted into magic and is building a surgical formula. I don't know, but I can tell the pressure isn't the only thing.

Dozens of seconds later, the "Gate of Souls" was activated without any particular message of skill activation.

Even though I didn't blink, my vision suddenly switches and I'm covered in an interesting space around. He was supposed to have been asleep, standing, and there was Lilica on the right side unchanged.

Nothing. I'm just standing in a white space with Potsung and me.

"This is the Gate of Souls?

By analogy, it resembles where that monolith was. It's a space where God appears and is likely to do so even in a dungeon.

"No. This is the entrance. Because it takes a little time to form the gate.... maybe a big gate will appear on the front"

"Think?"

"It varies from person to person. The form of the person's soul, the shape of his mind, and what represents a deep consciousness take shape and appear. So the shape changes depending on when you activate it, and the contents change."

You mean the psychological situation at that time will be reflected?

"However, the further back you go, the more distorted the gate becomes. It also means that the roots of deep psychology are not beautiful. No exceptions there. I hope you don't get discouraged looking inside yourself...... be careful"

"Isn't there one gate? Or is Lirica coming with you?

I thought I was the only one diving.

"I... or so far, where only the subject can interfere is the superficial part. After the First Gate it will be a battle for one."

"Fight? You mean there's a fight?

I don't have a weapon or anything. I don't know if I can bring it into this world.

"I can't say the battle doesn't... It's hard to describe well, because this technique is meant to interfere with the soul and polish it. There must be a world waiting for it."

I don't know. Though I didn't think it was moderate.

"Maybe, Tuna, but I think your world will be a harsh one"

"What makes you think that?

"Because it is the shape of the person's soul that the world colors. Tsuna, you're not normal."

Why not.

"... the signs are already out. Here."

When Lirica prompted me to look behind the space, something was emerging there. I can only see the contour, but is that a huge gate?

"Normally, the first gate never gets that huge. All I've ever seen is myself and my master's, but it's still so different that I can clearly see it."

"Normally, how much what?

"Enough for that person to dive normally"

... building size, that one. I can afford to dive even if Gardo is shoulder car for two.

The gate, which is now clearly visible, has no decoration whatsoever, it's just a giant gate. The material looks like stone, but I'm not sure. Although there would be no sense in the material in this world.

"Someone who's obvious when the gates are big?

"I don't know much about causality with personality, but... my master said that shape and size have nothing to do with what awaits me inside"

It doesn't mean it's amazing because it's big. Well, it's not like it's divination.

"What did you just say about the first gate?

"Maybe I can't get there, but there's more gates in the back. The deeper you go, the deeper you will interfere with your soul. Once you get to the second gate, Tuna, even you can sensibly control the magic technique... so that you can get a sense of what a typical magician would experience in a few years."

I don't want to be a magician. No, I'd like to try it.

... Is it my fault that I feel like I'm wearing it differently in something fundamental? Aren't they more... doors to interfere with potential parts of your soul? In fact, I think it's stronger than you can see.

That's never just to hone your witchcraft qualities.

"What about the third gate?

"I don't know. I'm sure there is, but I've never opened it."

I mean, I guess what Lirica's getting at is the second gate.

"Is there anything else you should be aware of?

"Especially... I have some details, but I don't think Tuna would be a problem.... and it's not the world that's going to happen in one go."

Do you mean that you will normally wear nourishment repeatedly twice and again? In my case, I don't know if there's a next one.

"Well, I'm just gonna go. Do you want me to come back here when you leave?

"I should be back here when I want to go back. You can think of that as the limit at the moment."

Kind of a strange specification, but I guess that's what it is. Experiences in labyrinth cities make it even more so now.

Walk away with Lirica and on the road to the gate alone. I'm not sure if it's far or close. Will this space obscure to a sense of distance? When I realized, I was approaching a distance I was likely to reach.

The gate opens without particularly touching it. A huge gate opens its mouth without making a sound. The shape in which the gate was opened resembles that of the transfer gate, which is well seen in the infinite corridor. But behind it is darkness. Nothing. Peeping into it, the abyss is so wide that it is likely to be inhaled.... If you step in, you won't suddenly fall, will you?

Looking back just once, Lirica stood there unchanged. Is it normal not to stop here? I'm scared.

If I can't help but stop here, I step out. Seems like the one I'm waiting for ahead is my deep psychology, but is it the ghost or the snake that ends up out there, or is it the super amazing wizard?

In an instant, vision switched, and it was countless doors that appeared in front of me. Numerous doors sit in disregard of even the laws of physics. Most of the doors are so distorted that I can't even open them, from the ones that are too small for me to the giant building sizes that I just threw in.

"It was too late. I'm tired of waiting."

... As expected, the self-proclaimed super amazing wizard, Erica Edenfelde, was there.
