Shinka no Mi

As soon as Anaconda fell and lay low on the ground, I quickly rushed over to Salia and quickly magically recovered.

"Salia! Are you okay?!?"

"Makichi... I, Seung-tayo... Makichi Ha, I no husband Sandakara..."

"Salia......"

- Absolutely, she's a big girl, you.

Then Anakong, who was supposed to have fallen earlier, approached with scratches.

I stand unwittingly covering Salia.

Anakong laughed bitterly at the way it looked.

'If you're so wary, you'll hurt your balls, too. Atashi beat each other straight from the front and lost. "

"Ah... oh, sorry"

'Fine, nothing.... you care about her, too. "

"Ugh... yeah, I am"

I'm embarrassed when people tell me honestly, but I honestly tell them that because it's true.

Anakong nodded contentedly at my words and turned his serious eyes to Salia.

"You, what's your name?

"... Salia"

'Well, that's a good name. Then, Salia, take this. "

That said, Anakong removed the caged hand he was wearing on his arm and gave it to Salia.

"Koleja?"

"It's Atashi's weapon. Better to be taken outside by you after you win than by a loser. Take it. '

"... minutes cutter"

Salia received the metallic blue cage hand and wore it on her arm.

"Clear Maiden Cage Hand"...... cage hand worthy of a proud maiden. Fantasy weapon. The equipper disables all state anomalies. Attack and Defense will continue to rise as long as the Gears remain proud.

The effect was sobering.

All state anomalies void is very valid, and even though it is an ambiguous expression, it seems that if you are proud, your attack will continue to increase.... No, if you're proud. The standards aren't clear!

With what Salia receives, Anakong grins.

"Oh... I knew I'd look good on you."

Salia clouded her expression at such anacongs.

"You ha...... good kattano?

What do you want?

"Dwiu Reason Deere, Your Ladyship Ha Makoto...... Male Seeking Meta. Solenanoni, easy ni give up Metaiino?

"You say that..."

Anakong spoke with a distant eye.

"... the Atasis are dungeons of birth and growth. I have no parents. If you insist, it's this dungeon. That's why I admired it. I wanted to have a family. Because Atashi only knows all the other males and families he can mate with as knowledge... when I saw you, I thought that dream would come true '

Anakong laughed at me and mocked himself.

'... but it was a mistake. You already have a good woman named Salia. There was no gap between you and me from the beginning. "

"... Solejaa, Colecarado sulno?

Anakong smiles gently at Salia's words.

You guys have business ahead of you, don't you? To open the door, we have to follow the rules of this dungeon. And the condition for the door of this room to open is for the lord of the room to disappear - that is, if the seal disappears, it will open. "

"Huh!"

Anakong smiles gently, but the snake demons have a sinking face.

Anakong laughed at us surprised.

What are you looking at? They're enemies, aren't they? Is there anyone who would be sad if the enemy disappeared? "

"Demo......!

"Where I lived, the results were together. Anyway, the athletes are the demons of the dungeons... poor demons who can't even get out of this narrow world. '

Even with a sad look on his face for just a moment, he immediately gave us a bright look and Anakong told us.

'Come on, I don't care about Atashi! Atashi to one thought. -'

"- You're an unusable demon!

"Huh?"

'What?... Huh!?

"Mister!?"

Suddenly, I thought I heard a familiar low voice, and suddenly Anakong held my chest down and suffered.

Sarya and I try to get close to Anakong in a hurry, but Anakong has been desperately in pain and controlling with his hands.

"Don't come!

"So, but!

'... apparently, you're here to pick me up'

'Exactly. You can use your life to get the intruders on the road at best. "

Then on both sides of the door to move on, where nothing had happened until earlier, those huge eyes appeared again.

"Been... Temehe died in our attack!?"

"You idiot! Such a weak attack would have killed me! I'm a dungeon. I can't beat you."

Huge eyes telling you that in the way you made a fool out of your heart.

Its huge eyes glanced cold at Anakong.

'You've been leveling so well, I didn't know you'd lose the downstream... that was a mess. I can't kill one intruder. It's worthless and useless to you. Immediate death. "

"Guuuuuuuuuuuu!?"

Saw Anakong desperately endure the pain, and Salia screamed.

"She ni what citano!?"

"What, until I just turned myself into a bomb. That gorilla is my created existence… I am free to treat it and to change it into one."

"What tecoto......! Suguyamate now!"

"This rotten outer road...!

"... I will not tolerate"

Ales hit the huge eyes of the wall all at once, but the huge eyes disappeared on the verge of an attack.

"Huhahahahahaha! It's late now! You should be caught in the explosion of the miscellaneous fish there and die. Still, if he's alive, we'll deal with him then. Well... I guess I can't, huh? Huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

"Son of a bitch... wait!

Al and the others desperately attack the wall, but his voice went farther and farther away.

Anacong squeezes out his voice in pain as he watches the exchange.

"Oh, I don't care about Atashi... you guys... come on... run...!

"Sonnakoto can luwakenaidesho!?"

'Don't be selfish...! Told you...? Ah, Atashi... he's tied to this dungeon... it's not up to this dungeon to let him live or kill him...'

"WHAT DE... WHAT DE...!

'Ahhh... don't look like that. Do something about Sarya, too. "

Anakong forced to laugh as he sweats on his forehead.

Look at that, I...

"Makichi... How tokashite, Makichi...!

"Okay."

I activated the liberation magic "President Lio Khan".

Then the gentle light envelops Anakong.

And when the light went out, did the pain go away at the same time? Anakong turned his surprise eyes to me.

"Ko, is this...?

"I freed you from this dungeon."

"Become... a liberation from the dungeon!? How..."

I put more healing magic on the confused Anakong and healed the wounds all over my body.

"Huh...?

"... Whatever your reasons, I can't accept you. No, it's not worth it to me in the first place."

There's plenty of just Al and Salia, and there's also Ayrin with Godless Moon seniors there, so it's extra.

"Still, I don't know if you're a gorilla... but I'm so glad you like me like this. That's why now you need to go out into the outside world and look for a better man. I let you go for it. You know what I mean?

'I can't believe you let me go... but that sounds true. But a good man... Atashi is a demon, and there are limits to it...'

Somewhere I gave up on Anakong, I took out only one piece of the "fruit of evolution" that I was cultivating.

"I'll do this"

'What, this...'

"If you eat this and level it up, maybe you can be human like Salia.... you, I think you're a good woman. That's why, if we could be human, we'd be hot, not just from our own people."

"Hey, I don't know, well..."

Yet I honestly received the 'fruit of evolution' and just ate it.

…………

"What do you say?

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

"Hahaha! That's right. Well, I assure you it will work. Huh?"

Laughing because I can empathize too, Anakong glanced away for a moment.

'.................. kind of. I tried to give up supparily but I meant it............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"Huh?"

"Hey, it's nothing. Hey!

"Oh, yeah?

If he's saying he's nothing, I guess he is.

Anyway, I did what Anakong could do.

Then all you have to do is meet those giant eyes that are ahead of you.

"Well... we'll go first. By freeing Anakong from the dungeon, he apparently recognized that the Lord of this room has disappeared..."

As a matter of fact, the moment we let Anakong go, the thick door behind this room was open.

"Well, then you too...... ugh......"

"Ahhh... I'm sorry I can't"

"So, but..."

Anakong, who tried to force himself to stand, can be relieved on the spot because the wound is healing but not returning to strength.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it from here. So you need to get out of here and find a good guy."

"Fine. Makoto Ha Qiang Icara"

Sarya covered for me that way, so Anakong snorted.

'... ok. I'll leave you guys to it. But listen! Atashi is not an unfaithful woman. So I will never forget this grace. I'll pay you back someday. "

"You don't have to worry about that..."

"Ah, Atashi wants to see you. Yikes! When you're ready, the next time you see each other, you'll be surprised how attractive you are!? '

"Mr. Tsubaki... you're motivated...!

'Of course, we'll follow you!

'... no, we're tied to a dungeon, right?

"'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!?'"

Also, the snake demons were interacting like a cont, so I accidentally mentioned 'President Li 'O Khan' to the snake demons as well.

'Ko, I can't believe you let Clams and us go... brother... let me call you brother!

"" 'Brother! Brother!' '

"I already have enough cousins!?"

Why do you even say things like Agnos to the snake demons? Yikes!

Anyway, by freeing everyone from the dungeon, we finally move on.

"Forget it... well, if I see you again!

"Bye!

"Oh, see you later!

We promise to meet again and head under the giant eyes we will be waiting for.

"… Makoto. You, a gorilla killer or something?

"Huh? What's a gorilla killer?

"... no, that's enough. I liked that gorilla too, and Salia seems to have admitted something..."

That's what Al said as he sighed on the road.

Apparently, I'm the only one who doesn't understand, and Luise and Routier had a subtle look on their face, Origa was not particularly different, and Lune naturally had that look on her face.

Even Oliga, who hasn't changed, seems to know, so it really doesn't seem like I'm the only one who really understands.

Anyway, those giant eyes were still alive.

... The threat that the Snake God used to say would mean him.

I thought Sarya and the others had totally vanished in their attack.

Besides, I haven't confirmed that I'm still in this dungeon called 'The Poor Child'.

Anakong was tied to the dungeon as the lord of that room, but it wouldn't be like the 'poor child' that the Snake God was talking about. "Poor kid" seems to have been sealed in this dungeon, and by contrast, Anakong said he was born and raised in a dungeon.

Whatever it was, I was very unpleasant.

I know it's my selfish emotion, but I still don't like that statement and attitude.

He said that if he was alive, he would deal with him.

So...

"Well... do you want me to deal with him?

I thought so in front of a huge door with a different atmosphere.

◆ ◇ ◆

"This is..."

When you knock through a giant door decorated with snakes, you go out into a dim room.

Then there was something at the center of it that was chained all over his body to the cross.

We are surprised by the unusual signs in that room and the existence of detention for some reason.

As we approached the center of the room a little bit more vigilantly, the door behind the instructions was closed.

- Please don't come.

"Huh?"

The proximity cleared up its appearance, but we were surprised again in a different way.

Dark green hair is constantly hanging, her eyes quietly laying low.

Still, I can see that it looks extremely good and looks about my age.

The clothes are wrapped up in worn things, but I don't see any scratches or anything overall. However, it was oddly glossy because the chain was eating into the chest and so on because of the good style.

But seeing you like that doesn't make me feel anything but surprised.

Because...

"Medusa......?

Yes, the woman in custody in front of me looked like a medusa appearing in mythology.

No, I can't say anything because I've never seen an actual medusa, but if you look closely at the green hair you've been scratching earlier, the tip looks like a snake.

"What's a Medusa?

"Uh... Medusa is a fictional presence in the mythology of my world... I guess"

Apparently there is no word Medusa in this world, and Al is making it seem strange.

More than that, she'd be in custody now.

"Uh, I need that restraint now. -"

"Please don't come"

We were all trying to help, but her response was no.

Salia asks about the rejection.

"Why?"

"... I don't know why you came to this place, but go home now. … I don't want to sacrifice anyone anymore"

"... I don't know the details, but I can't overlook them either. Now."

"Huh! Ahhh... so, no... run...!

"Become!?"

The moment I ignored her words but tried to get closer, suddenly something went wrong with her.

You get a distressed look in captivity.

"No... no... no, no, no, no, no!

At that moment, her eyes, which should have been closed, opened and glowed purple.

The purple light stretches out to us in a straight line like a laser.

I had a bad feeling. As soon as we flew off the scene, the purple light hit the door behind us.

"Is...?

"And the door..."

It wasn't a big surprise because I thought I was somewhat of a Medusa from the looks of it, but I'm not. The Salias looked at the purple lit doors and their expressions were strong.

Because the door was turning into an inorganic stone.

Of course, the door was originally made of iron or inorganic.

But the door, which was completely open, has now solidified like a single slab.

With a purple light on her face, she is desperately enduring something.

"Gu... uhh... no... come on, get out of here..."

"I don't care if they tell me to run away..."

I can't even see you making it seem so painful, and most importantly, I need help with the dungeon itself that would be here.

As I was haunting my head about what was going on, our purpose, the dungeon, called out.

"What, you guys? He was alive? Boring. '

"Temee......"

'Well living or not, it doesn't make a difference to die here in the end... Come on, curse child! Kill the intruders there!

"Ugh... Uh-oh!

She exclaimed, finally unable to bear it.

Besides, the chains and crosses that were restrained at that moment bounce and fly.

'Ha-ha-ha! Now, let's sift that power to the intruders! And kill them! Kill me and I'll be strong again...'

"Ugh... ah..."

"What are you doing!? Kill, kill! The world can't live with you. I'll use you! Unleash that cursed power now!

"I don't like it... I don't like it...!

A dungeon approached her, desperately curtailing her eyes with both hands.

"You heard me earlier, chest shit evil no... come out because you're not hiding!

"That's right. I didn't know you wouldn't show up in front of the Lord...... there's more to it than that in disgrace. Do you want to be wiped out of this world?

Then the bloody Al and Lune said so as they looked all over the room.

"You idiot. Why should I come before you? You said you were only doomed to die... '

"... if it doesn't come out, it's until it's paid off or attacked gradually."

Luis unleashed indiscriminate slaughter against the surrounding walls and ceilings while alerting her to suffer.

The slaughter does damage the wall, but it is quickly repaired.

"Huhahahahahahahaha! No use. No use! You're no longer in this room... No, you can't even get out of me! And the cursed child will kill you now."

"Damn...... I don't want to...... I don't...!

"Hmm. Still up against me in the minute of garbage made unnecessary by the public? Come on, give up! '

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

After the words of the dungeon, a black smoky thing engulfed her body.

She was desperate to resist being swallowed up by that smoke, but eventually lost her strength and left her eyes completely open.

Besides, hatred resides in its eyes, and it flies its gaze at us.

"Hate...... Hate, hate, hate, hate!

"Ugh!?"

"Chip!"

"... dangerous"

We desperately avoided the light of petrification emitted indiscriminately.

... No, I have 'Totally Tolerant' skills, and Salia gets a cage hand effect from Anakong to disable the state anomaly. I'm in the mood, I'm avoiding it because of mental health issues.

Salia and the others were still attacking because there might be a dungeon somewhere on the wall or ceiling while avoiding it.

As we were avoiding the light, she exploded the screams of her heart.

"Why... why should I be ostracized...! Such a body... I didn't want to be...!

'Yes, yes, humans are selfish, aren't they? I created you and sealed you in this dungeon because you were out of hand. The power to stone just by pointing your gaze... I wonder if you are indeed a [poor child] who is said to have been cursed even though it is not a curse'

Listening to the voice of that dungeon, I could imagine that my face would have a very nasty grin even if I could not see it.

"But thanks to you being sealed in my dungeon, I was able to absorb that power and thus acquire tremendous abilities. You're a worthy piece of garbage for me."

"Ugh... Ugh! Ugh!

Dungeon voices reverse people's nerves everywhere.

Because she does not have the strength to resist her own circumstances or the words of the dungeon...... she shed a crimson tear of blood from both her eyes.

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Really, man gave me some really good toys! I'll thank you for that. Therefore, from now on, we will take in many of them and turn the world into me!

A dungeon that somehow talks about its own delusions all by itself.

'Hey, how long are you going to take!? Just -'

"Just now."

I activated "President Li 'l Khan" on her rampage. "President Li 'l Khan" is working very well today.

Then the black smoke that had wrapped around her body bounced off, and she accepted that she was about to collapse on the spot when she returned to her vegan state.

"Ah..."

'Ha!?'

I heard her as well as the dumb voice of the dungeon in the sudden event.

... He said something was sealed in this dungeon, but apparently he was tied to this dungeon like Anakong.

I stare at the whole room when I let her sleep on the spot softly.

"If I'd heard it earlier, I wouldn't know what it meant..."

"Yikes, you don't know what that means!?"

You don't get it.

Can you keep up even if you are told abruptly about her or the past of the dungeon?

With me letting her go, Salia and the others stopped attacking once and came under me.

"Gu, gu, gu...! I don't know how, but I can never get out of this dungeon where I freed that garbage! Because you have to take me down! If you can't even use the garbage there, that's enough! Decay like no other in that room, including garbage! hehe...... ahahahahahahahahahahaha!

That said, the voice of the dungeon went away again.

"Oh, you're not running away! Makichi, are you sure?!? Even if I let you get away with it!

"Fine."

That's what Al asks, but it doesn't matter.

In the first place, I wasn't going to let them get away with it anymore.

"... I've never been in a dungeon before, but everywhere has such a bad personality?

"... No, I've never even heard of dungeons being conscious in the first place"

Lutya also frowned at the bad character of the dungeon here, and Luis sighed and denied it.

That's right... it's a weird story about dungeons being conscious.

Well more than that......

"Are you okay?

"Uh... Um... that's... that's okay..."

That's what she said in fright with her eyes closed now.

I laugh bitterly not at how it looks.

"You don't have to be so scared..."

"... you've decided to be scared. It fits now, but that light is beyond my control. So it could turn you all into stone, right?

That's what I said. She lay down her face.

Then Salia speaks gently.

"I'm Salia! What's your name?

"I'm Zola Mergon"

"Then why is Mr. Zola in this dungeon?

"... why do I have to tell you that? Leave me alone now."

"You can't leave me alone. Because I miss being alone in a place like this!

In keeping with such Salia, I also told her what Snake God was saying.

"I'm not very good either, but I can't leave you alone. Snake God asked me to."

"eh... snake god!?"

Zola looked up bah to my words.

"That's right. He asked me to help the poor boy on the way."

"... is that right..."

It was Zola who would be silent for a while, but she eventually talked pompous.

"... I was born in a village in the depths of the woods, a species originally known as the Serpents. But as soon as I was born, I turned my mother into a stone."

……

Already from birth, she seemed to have been able to use the light of petrification.

"Luckily my mother was treated early so I was helped...... she told me I was a cursed child from all over the village and by my parents. It was the Snake God who taught me that."

"The Serpent God?

"Yep... the other Snake Clan who knew what I was capable of feared me and decided to kill me. But it was the Serpent God, the patron saint of the Serpents, who angered me with this decision. There was also the existence of the Serpent God, and I was not to be killed immediately, but those who did not often think of the Serpent God, the patron saint at the time, eventually decided not to kill me, but to seal it in this dungeon with the Serpent God. At first it was a small dungeon, and me and the Snake God were together. But this dungeon, which gradually accumulated power and grew in size... eventually became willing. The willing dungeon increased the hierarchy and let me and the Serpent God go. And knowing what I was capable of, the dungeon built up even more strength by tying my body to this room."

We couldn't say anything when we heard about Zola.

Instead of being dumped by his parents, he was about to be killed and sealed in a dungeon with the Serpent God, who was ultimately the patron saint...

However, I guess you said that Routier would be the first to show signs of sadness because she had been sealed for such a life.

I also thought during the Black Dragon God, but I guess people are creatures that gradually forget the thing of gratitude.

This may not be what I can say about a Japanese who is originally somewhat religious tolerant, but it is still not an act against someone who has ever protected me.

"... I can't fit in, and this is why I'm in the dungeon. So I haven't been blessed since I was born in this world."

Zola laughed mocking herself with her eyes closed.

Then Oliga hugged Zola.

"Huh?"

"... don't tell me you haven't been blessed"

"... what do you know? I don't know how I feel."

"... I get it. I was dumped by my parents because I was a black cat beast."

"... Huh?

Surprised and bewildered by Origa's words, Zola.

"... I was also told that I should not have been born. Besides, they sold me to my parents, they bought me into the country, and they remembered the assassination technique..."

……

"... but I'm happy now. It doesn't matter how the world is. Everyone has a right to be happy."

"... I want to be happy too. I want to see a real sky, not a place like this. I want to get some clear air. I want to see all kinds of scenery......! But...!

Zola couldn't bear to say that and cried out.

Al, who was watching, asked me.

"... hey. I don't know if I can rely on you like this...... Makoto, can you do something about it? I was cursed too, so I couldn't think of anyone..."

"... I'm so glad you're counting on me, but this is..."

I want to help too.

I'd like to help... but the trouble is, her petrified eyes weren't a curse.

No matter how many times you check using Advanced Appraisal or World Eye, there is no indication of curse.

I mean......

"... is it really your natural physique..."

It's not a curse, there's nothing I can do about it if it's called physique.

I can't imagine the magic of physical improvement.

And it's not a skill, so there's nothing I can do about it.

"If you're in shape, you don't know what principles will give you the light of petrification..."

"Maybe, but it's caused by excessive magic overflowing from the eyes"

"Huh?"

With her head in full jam, Routier was looking into Zola's eyes with serious eyes.

"I can see magic and stuff as colors directly, not skills and magic. I think this is in the same shape as her. So, I've been thinking about this for a while now that it's weird... it's so magical that it's impossible in her eyes. And when it's going to overflow, it's like it's going to be a petrified light, and it's going to be released."

"Oh well...... so what am I supposed to do with magic? For example… reduce excess."

I thought I could do something thanks to Lutya, but Lutya shook her head sideways with a difficult look.

"... magic is what circulates the body. It's not like you use magic, but if you force yourself to reduce your magic, your body will get weird, and sometimes you'll die the worst."

"So there's nothing you can do after all..."

"No... difficult, but if we completely block the overflowing magic, we can still figure it out..."

Block the magic completely......

"Is that easy?

"... I can't do it if it's normal. Because there are basically no obstacles to magic, just like magic overflows from your body, no matter how much you suppress it."

"Oh well..."

I mean, if there's anything that can completely shut out the magic, Zola's petrified light seems to be fine.

But not only does it suppress the light of petrification, but it also needs to come true because he wants to see the view outside.

... my own imagination, but I'll have to make it unobstructed in sight like goggles and glasses.

"Yeah... a thing that completely blocks only magic and doesn't block my sight..."

What an item like that convenience!

Where's that stuff...

"Ah."

That's all I remember.

... There it is. There it is, just one...!

I remember the item and spoke to everyone.

"Hey, guys!

"Hmm? What's going on?

"... found a way to solve Zola's problem"

'Yes!?'

We're all surprised.

"Makichi... Tell me for yourself. What, there's nothing completely blocking magic, is there? Besides, what a thing that doesn't take your sight away from you..."

As Lutya put it, I thought so at first, too, but I can't help it because I do.

"Well fine! I just have to get out of the dungeon once to get it ready."

"What? You're out of the dungeon... what do you care we're stuck in this dungeon?"

I totally forgot about Zola, but the dungeon says we're trapped.

But...

"No, it doesn't matter because I have metastatic magic."

"... Speaking of which, you did"

They can actually use metamagic in this room, so we can get out without any problems.

"But when I'm done with that errand, I'm gonna come back again."

"What? Why..."

To the strange Al, I replied with a grin.

"Well, of course - I'm not forgiving this dungeon."
