Sword of the Philosopher
New tricks
- From there, the labyrinth attack continued pale. The next tier was something I could handle in my memory, so I unlocked it without difficulty and engaged with demons just like the third tier. It was a demon I hadn't seen before, but a small number. This one broke through intact due to my knowledge.
As for the hierarchy below it, it's also just a harassing trap... but at this point my buddies started adapting too. In other words, the number of demons is small, so it is safe to explore the signs thoroughly and remove the trap.
Most importantly, it's not too much trouble from us looking for the fastest strategy... it's just not being obstructed by demons, it's not taking as long as I say. There doesn't seem to be a problem.
Without prior information, it would be rough. I have my knowledge, and I can handle the trick, so it's going well, and if I didn't have any information, the traps might have torn my people apart the worst. It is not surprising, however, that from now on, enemies have emerged that differ from what is assumed. I'll get back on my nerves.
From there, we push further down the hierarchy... but after defeating a demon in a hierarchy full of traps, we are in a state where we can rest. Therefore, the small pause means to take a break once before going down the stairs.
"Little by little, you can see fatigue builds up."
Kati shrugged as she took pills to restore her magic.
"It's just a little bit, and now I have medication, so I can do something about it... but if this continues to extend, the thread of concentration will break somewhere. That's when this labyrinth trap will tear its fangs apart."
"Oh, definitely"
This one looks around while agreeing. There are no health or magic problems with me. I've fought powerful demon opponents day and night. I'm pretty sure I'm the least fatigued person at the moment.
As for Sophia, Reese, and Oldia, there has been no change in their movements during the battle, so there is no obstacle to the battle so far. But this is just a "now" story. Since then, if the fatigue that had accumulated one by one came to the surface somewhere, I would be shrugged underfoot in an unexpected way.
And the demons are definitely getting stronger. Based on this, it's no surprise we're being set up with a trap that's coming after us where we're tired. Or maybe, in a labyrinth with a mean personality, it definitely comes.
"... somehow, that's a strange labyrinth"
It was Kuuza who murmured so much. He also looks around the labyrinth taking his meds again.
"I would never let you come to the bottom... it feels like you have such a firm will, but as long as you have the knowledge, like Mr. Luon, you can attack. This is more like trying an intruder than an intruder."
Yeah, I thought so, too. So this one replied, "Right."
"The weapon left behind by the demon... I'm looking for enough people to give it to, maybe that means"
"So much for something powerful, right?
"The problem is how we use it. Exactly. The apostle of the star god... you don't expect to use it against such a giant opponent"
Having worked so hard to get something of value to us... well, we're getting in on the assumption that we're going to waste our legs, and more about this place now.
"The apostles... wonder if the phantom beasts are working hard"
It will be desperately stopped by now... because the apostolic progression continues even as we dive into the labyrinth like this.
"Let's hope it turns out well"
Sophia says. Yeah, you're right.
"All right, it's time to take a break... it's just a bunch of traps, and it's taking a while, but it's all within our assumptions. But it's been quite a while since I've dived into the labyrinth. I know it's medication all night, but I can force my body to move, but being impotent like that naturally causes problems somewhere... something to say as soon as something happens"
We'll keep pushing, and then we'll go down the stairs. What's the next trick?
Now the door appeared directly in front. It's a hierarchy with gimmicks like the third tier.
In addition, there is a passage to the left and right, and yet there is some tattoo engraved on the wall. There doesn't seem to be any special significance to them, but this is what was in the game as well.
"... you're the one who splits into two hands"
"That's what Master Luon said when we discussed it. What will you do?
"It looks like we'll just have to split up second-hand for one second, so let's split the team. I want to be even about my power, because there are fights with demons while I move on."
- As a result, me, Liese and Katie. And it became an organization called Sophia and the rest of us. I have Les Bailes, and I don't have a problem with the war being biased against Sofia's side.
"I'll have a user demon there who can make the call, so I'll move with my instructions as appropriate. Any questions?
"We're asking ahead of time about the setup itself, but at the same time, you just have to touch the switch that exists in the back of the aisle, right?
"Oh. More accurately, within a certain amount of time than at the same time, I guess."
The game was a mechanism whereby if you didn't touch the trick within a certain amount of action, it would be reset. This makes it impossible to attack alone.
"We're on our way. If there's been a change in the type of demon, tell them immediately."
"Yes, Master Luon, be careful"
"And Sophia."
We exchange words with each other and split into two hands. I'm the left hand. Sophia's the right. The gimmick itself shouldn't make a big difference from left to right, but if anything, shall we move gradually?
I see the sight of Sophia and the others moving on from the point of view of the demon of use. Yeah, for once, there's no problem with the remote operation of the demon.
- There you are.
At that time, a voice came from Reese. A demon appeared directly in front of it, and it was a demon that appeared in the most recent hierarchy.
By the time we get here, we've already optimized the movement, so it's easy for even the three of us to deal with it. I set up a sword for the demons while Kati was notified to see if there were any traps - and the fighting began.
